Debates over homelessness and affordable housing have dominated the discourse in Georgetown for more than a year. While Georgetown was among the only places in Delaware to previously adopt a cottage housing measure, the town council’s recent rollback of the housing option leaves the future of affordable housing in town in question, particularly amidst an ongoing lawsuit.

Salisbury narrows data center definition under zoning code as project stalls

SALISBURY, MD - Salisbury City Council voted Monday to change the city's zoning code governing data centers, blocking plans for a data center at 207 Kiley Drive. The ordinance amends Section 17.04.120 of the Salisbury City Code to establish a more specific definition of a data processing and computer center.

CAMBRIDGE — Residents and commissioners alike continued the contentious conversations surrounding two ordinances — ordinance 1280 on rental dwelling registration, licensing and inspections and ordinance 1281 on vacant commercial storefronts and residential structures. At the beginning of the meeting, Commissioner Shay Lewis-Sisco motioned to amend the agenda to postpone the ordinance’s readings due to amendments made over the weekend not being included in the public council packet. Lewis-Sisco also suggested postponing the ordinances because of a very large presence at the prior meeting speaking out against both ordinances. Mayor Lajan Cephas-Bey argued against the delay saying that continuing to postpone holds up city staff from performing essential functions, specifically processing new rental property registrations. Delaying past this meeting would push the process back by at least two weeks to a month due to advertising “I’m going to quote President Cephas: ‘either piss or get off the pot,’” Cephas-Bey said. Lewis-Sisco revised the motion to keep the items on the agenda for discussion only without taking action. A tie vote occurred on whether to amend the agenda, which Cephas-Bey broke by voting to keep the items on the agenda as presented. Amendments The ordinances both have significant amendments to housing and
