Both. At this location, there is a need for commercial (ie..restaurant, pharmacy, grocery, etc.) and these uses can be supported by the residential community located on the property along with the surrounding community in the Cool Spring area. In addition, I would anticipate the commercial portion of the project to be utilized by the visitors and staff of the neighboring future Bayhealth medical facility. Having a commercial aspect to the project will help service the bike / foot traffic for the neighboring bike trail. Keeping the commercial portion along with the residential makes the community walk able and will ultimately help mitigate traffic on neighboring roadways. . Finally, the mixed use property containing a new Sussex YMCA facility is a must! This is a much needed facility for the Sussex County area and locating the new facility with easier access and more centrally located then it's current location will help serve the entire county.

Open spaces within communities should serve multiple purposes including encouraging outdoor community gatherings, encourage visitors to utilize open spaces, encourage outdoor activities, and to help preserve and protect environmentally sensitive areas. These could include lawn gathering areas for the community and visitors to utilize for community events, activity fields that could be utilized for youth and adult activities, and community garden areas that provide opportunities for residents to congregate and socialize. Additionally, I've seen municipalities and communities create rain gardens and walkways within storm water retention systems that help protect the environmentally sensitive areas along with creating usable park space.

From the perspective of someone that isn't a resident in the community, having activities / events that encourage and engage outside visitors would be a large draw to visiting the community. Additionally, having the commercial aspect to the community along with the inclusion of the neighboring bike path will help provide visitors opportunities to enjoy the community.

Housing with grocery, gas and other needs nearby to avoid the need to travel far for your basic needs. Nature trails for hiking and biking, parks for kids to play and to walk dogs.

Housing with large enough lots to space between houses and three car garage options. Retail would be wonderful including a grocery store, pharmacy, bank, coffee shop, bike shop and a sandwich shop (Arenas!).

Looking forward to seeing the proposed plan. Only concern is additional traffic on RT-9

Donna - give us a few examples of what you would value as "cultural options." Things like a library, small local art galleries, maybe even a small theatre?

We don't need a more sophisticated look. What we need is the farmland that has been lost. If you want a peaceful area you missed it. The area 40 years ago was absolutely beautiful. Farmland and lovely waterways not a lot of people. It was a good place to raise a family. We had very little crime back then. I think if you need all the fancy restaurants and sophistication go back to where you came from. There are more people here that enjoy going to Royal Farms than know.
What I truly hate is the fact that people move here for the small town atmosphere and then promptly try to change it to what they came from.
A piece of Sussex County wisdom. We really don't care how you did it back where you came from.

I would love to see a Costco, Target & Trader Joe's Market. For the open spaces, a Japanese garden would be amazing. We had one where I went to school at Cal State Long Beach, its something that would be unique to the area, and everyone loved the gardens, all ages. Gardens, koi ponds, and bridges that connected it all. We'd organize a whole day around feeding the fish & reading books at the garden, it was amazing.

There is opporutnity for connecting not only to the Lewes-Georgetown Trail, but there is opportunity for connection to the north towards Milton to include McCabe Nature Preserve, Dogfish Head Craft Brewery, and many other neighborhoods.

I'd like to know what plans for housing will be presented. Will there be large homes with high price tags, or will there be homes built that will be affordable for people who live in Delaware, and not just big bucks coming from other states.

I think right along rt 9 retail spaces make a lot of sense. Restaurants as well as shopping sites would work well for me.

Southern Delaware has some of the best bike paths in the region and it is our plan to connect our community to them! Stay tuned here for more announcements soon.

A community garden may be an interesting idea. It could include area to grow fruit & veggies but also gardens to attract birds/butterflies. Maybe you could engage the Delaware Botanic Gardens in planning for this space.

Will you leave the topsoil? Will you not replace it with builder’s clay do little can take root. Will you plant quality trees or cheap saplings that don’t stand a chance of maturing? Leave the land as it is.

Build another Freeman Stage like the one in Selbyville. Also build a Super Target instead of another grocery store
