AN ACT TO AMEND TITLE 22 OF THE DELAWARE CODE RELATING TO DOWNTOWN DEVELOPMENT DISTRICTS.

This Act provides that Downtown Development Districts are limited in area based on the size of the municipality or unincorporated area in which they are located. Currently, while the Delaware Office of State Planning Coordination (OSPC) limits the size of Downtown Development Districts, those limitations are not set forth in the Delaware Code. This Act adopts and codifies the limits set by the OSPC for jurisdictions with a population of 9,000 or fewer persons and for jurisdictions with a population of 9,001 to 30,000 persons. It increases the limit currently set by OSPC for jurisdictions with more than 30,000 persons from 250 acres to 400 acres and codifies that increased limitation.
