CLNCC Meeting With Speaker: NCC Council 12th District Candidate Kevin Caneco, 7PM February 18th In Christiana

February 2020 Meeting Notice
CIVIC LEAGUE FOR NEW CASTLE COUNTY
7:00 – 9:00 pm Tuesday, February 18th
Christiana Presbyterian Church
15 N. Old Baltimore Pike, Christiana, DE 19702

NCC Council District 12 primary candidate Kevin Caneco joins us as guest speaker to discuss the NCC Land Use process and ideas on how to improve it [facebook campaign site: Kevin Caneco around the 12th]. Back in January, Kevin wrote this wake up call about a Bayberry land application bait and switch:
Business as usual needs to change in this county. The long awaited Bayberry Town Center plan of soccer fields and a walkable town center atmosphere has been scrapped for 140 new townhomes, a proposed fast food joint and another strip mall. This is an egregious breach of trust done with no community input. I call on members of the Council to oppose this revised plan. It’s time for this nonsense to stop.
*NOTE: this plan's NCC Planning Board public hearing is March 3rd (see meeting information below)
