9. October 2010 by admin.
When I bought my Sunday paper in the WAWA last night, it was the last one on the shelf. I have a feeling that there are a lot of New Castle Countians with questions for Chris Coons, Paul Clark, Bob Weiner, Jack Markell and Carolann Wicks concerning traffic congestion and our ever-threatened quality of life. The reactions have been pouring in. Here’s one:
From the inbox ~ Here is how Coons removed traffic…We can’t let him continue to claim that it’s a “property right” and he doesn’t want to be sued. He did it…
….Under the provisions of Ordinance 03-069, sites identified by DNREC (Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Control) as brownfields would be exempted from conducting a site resource capacity analysis and from paying impact fees. An operational analysis may be required for major plans and a Traffic Impact Study (TIS) will be required only if requested by the Department of Transportation (DelDOT). On a recommendation by DelDOT, the County may restrict gross floor area (GFA) and DelDOT may require transportation improvements as a condition of its letter of no objection.
The ordinance also makes two other important changes to the UDC. First, it removes the requirement for a Planning Board public hearing for minor redevelopment plans (it retains the requirement for major redevelopment plans) and, second, it expands uses allowed in Industrial (I) zoning districts to include general office, without limitation, and mixed-use development, subject to the same standards for mixed use in the OR (Office, Regional) zoning district.
…..With the passage of the Redevelopment Ordinance (Ord 01-098) in April 2002, New Castle County took the most important step in addressing some of the most serious problems in the Unified Development Code since the UDC was approved by Council on December 31, 1997. County Executive Chris Coons has made redevelopment, especially of brownfields, part of his vision for New Castle County. To advance that part of his agenda, he hired Karl Kalbacher as Director of the Office of Economic Redevelopment. Karl has been participating in the Comprehensive Development Plan Update Process and has provided important comments regarding the impact of various Comp Plan goals on economic development.
Karl used his brownfields background to strengthen Ordinance 06-007, the latest ordinance to modify the redevelopment process, introduced January 24, 2006. The third to tweak the redevelopment process, this ordinance modifies the UDC to apply “substantially the same standards and conditions to both Brownfields and other redevelopment sites.”
Ord 06-007 removes multiple impediments to redevelopment: just as with brownfields, redevelopment plans need not provide a site resource capacity analysis on any site containing no natural resources; redevelopment plans can be qualified beyond S, ST, or TN zones; rezonings on brownfields or redevelopment sites are not subject to the triannual rezoning dates; major land development plans that are not subject to a rezoning may proceed directly to record plan submission following exploratory sketch plan approval; reconstruction of nonconforming buildings destroyed by more than 50% must begin within 10, rather than 5 years; there is a redevelopment density bonus in any zoning district up to 25% of the maximum nonresidential GFA or multifamily dwelling density allowed in Table 40.04.110A or 25% of the legally established nonresidential GFA or multifamily dwelling density on the site, whichever is greater.
Most significantly, “in any OR, BP, I or HI zoning district on lots containing at least fifty-thousand (50,000) square feet GFA of existing development, any size expansion of an existing industrial or manufacturing use provided no TIS is required by DelDOT” will be a minor land development plan.
