特拉华州乔治城3比1废除小户型住宅条例 122套保障房计划受阻 诉讼仍在进行

特拉华州苏塞克斯县县治乔治城的镇议会星期一晚以3比1投票,废除实施不到一年的小户型住宅条例,《Spotlight Delaware》11月11日报道了这一决定。市长安吉·汤森与议员佩纽尔·巴雷特、迈克尔·布里格斯投下赞成票,议员托尼·尼尔是唯一反对者,第五名议员克里斯蒂娜·迪亚兹-马龙缺席。被废除的条例于2025年12月由上一届镇议会通过,允许在城市住宅区每英亩土地上建造最多12套小户型住宅。
支持废除的议员表示,绝大多数居民不希望镇上出现小户型住宅,并担心房价下跌。废除决定不影响已获批的20套小户型住宅项目,该项目由非营利组织小生活公司开发,位于东市场街,今年2月已获批准。但非营利组织跳板特拉华计划在苏塞克斯学院附近14英亩土地上建造122套小户型的项目就此受阻。该组织已在镇上运营一个托盘屋过渡住所,并于9月中旬向衡平法院起诉镇政府,指控镇议会7月暂停受理新项目申请的做法违法,诉讼目前仍在进行中。
Georgetown Repeals Its Small-Lot Housing Ordinance in 3-1 Council Vote
The town council of Georgetown, the Sussex County seat in Delaware, voted 3-1 on Nov. 9 to repeal the town's small-lot housing ordinance, Spotlight Delaware reported. Council members Townsend, Barrett and Briggs voted for repeal, Neal voted against, and Diaz-Malone was absent. The ordinance had allowed up to 12 homes per acre; a 20-home proposal on East Market Street was not covered by the repeal.
The Springboard housing project, a planned 122-home development on 14 acres, remains tied up in litigation in the Court of Chancery. Supporters of repeal said the ordinance had produced developments out of scale with the town, while opponents warned the move would worsen the local shortage of attainable housing.
