Workforce Housing Issue Focus of Town Hall Meeting in Bear

     This is an interesting article on a workforce housing Town Hall meeting held in Bear, Delaware. 

     The problems with the workforce housing code and its implementation have been a big issue for the Civic League since its passage. 

     I thank the candidates challenging the incumbents for putting on this meeting and at least laying out their ideas and solutions to the public. I also challenge the incumbents to do the same.

      As an independent, I will attend any candidate's forum and support the candidate with the best solution to the problem. I don't care if you are a Democrat, a Republican, or from the Bull Moose Party. Convince me you can solve the problems and you get my support!!!

     Many of us from the civic community put hundreds of hours into the NCC Comprehensive Plan process, only to be ignored.  Since that time,
