From the Mayor:
I have been meeting virtually with city leaders from surrounding municipalities and have been in direct contact with Governor Carney and his team concerning the near future as the summer season is rapidly approaching. It is with an abundance of caution that I regretfully decided to cancel the fireworks display planned for July 3rd and to cancel all bandstand concerts through the July 4th weekend, and to cancel all special events through this time period. The beach and Boardwalk also remain closed in response to the call to limit close contact with others. I know this is extremely disappointing, but we must act with a high degree of restraint while lessening the chance to stem the spread of this deadly virus.
Beginning next week, I plan to meet regularly with representatives from each of the six business categories located in the downtown district to provide current information and to hear their concerns.
Governor Carney is following federal guidelines related to openings with three different phases of recovery. To get to Phase 1, which is a very limited reopening, there is first a 28-day period before even approaching this point. We are not there yet as the number of positive cases in Sussex County continues to rise.

New FAR Ordinance - The latest changes to the FAR ordinance have been modified as follows:
  • In residential districts, a deck or patio without a roof would not be counted toward gross floor area. [They are counted in lot coverage.]
  • Front porches on houses in residential districts would still get a 250 sq ft exemption, and other porches and front porch space in excess of 250 sq ft would still be counted in gross floor area (GFA) as is the code now.
  • Subsurface parking in commercial zones will likely be excluded from GFA, given that use of underground space is desirable to get cars off the street.
There is no consensus yet on how balconies would be counted in GFA for commercial buildings. This issue impacts the overall bulk of hotels, density, and noise. The latest version of the amendment (02/2020) is here...
A public hearing on the ordinance has been scheduled for April 24, 3:00 PM. - No new date available
