At the June meeting the Residential Advocacy Committee introduced Village to Village representatives who spoke to our committee and public participants. This group is a nonprofit organization that enables older adults to remain safe and independent in their homes. The Village to Village program has been successful in other communities on the Delmarva Peninsula like Bethany Beach, Ocean View, and Lewes as well as communities all over the US and England. Because of the interest expressed by some Fenwick residents, we are sending this survey to the Fenwick Community.
These results will be sent to an independent exploratory committee unaffiliated with Council or other Town officials. Please note that the Village program is a separate and independent entity. While the Town Council is not officially endorsing this program, Town officials thought it would be helpful to share this information with those who might be interested.
Any additional questions should be directed to info@villagevolunteer.org. All surveys will be returned to:

Here at DelDOT it is our goal to examine the impacts climate change and sea-level rise are having on our transportation infrastructure, and incorporate resiliency and sustainability measures in the planning, design, construction, and maintenance of our projects. Due to the low-lying topography of our state, creating resilient infrastructure in the face of roadway flooding is a challenge. DelDOT has been and continues to be challenged by the effects of sea-level rise (SLR) and frequently flooded roadways. And the SR1 corridor between Dewey Beach and the Maryland state line is particularly vulnerable with effects coming from oceanside as well as bayside. This section of SR1 is a primary evacuation route for Bethany Beach, South Bethany, Fenwick Island, and Ocean City, Maryland. This planning study will allow the Delaware Department of Transportation to develop short and long-term solutions to help protect this important roadway for both the economic stability of the state and the safety of the traveling public.

Statement on WBOC reporting on Bunting Avenue:
Recently WBOC reported that there was a “proposal” made at the infrastructure committee meeting on August 16 to make Bunting Avenue one way. There is not a proposal or a motion to do so at this time. I had reached out to the Engineering Circuit Rider at the Delaware Center for Transportation. He sent me the following recommendations. Please note that as stated at the meeting any changes would involve significant community outreach and involvement. These are simply ideas recommended by a trained professional in the field.
