This is good ~ New Castle County Government
If
you see this sign posted, it means that there are NEW PLANS received
& being reviewed in the County's Land Use Dept. Now, you can get an
easy link to those plans each week right here!
NEW PLANS Received 5/23-5/29:http://tinyurl.com/cbk3nd5
But
I think New Castle County ought to recreate the entire Saturday morning
News Journal Department of Land Use notice on the county website: One
Stop Shop.
So I took a spin around the various Boards' web pages and found a dismal lack of transparency from the Ethics Commission. No agenda posted, unknown next meeting time, place, date and the last minutes posted were from March.
None of the status/map links are working on any of the DLU web pages so far examined this morning.
The
last several Historic Review Board meetings have been cancelled for
lack of agenda yet there are outstanding issues with the La Grange
demolition permit from a year ago. I am waiting on a report from Jim
Smith on this but I am pretty damned tired of holding my breath.
