Dagsboro Council Debates Annexation for Housing Development Near Chandler
What happened
Dagsboro officials are debating whether to annex 134 acres west of U.S. Route 113 for a new housing subdivision called Harmony. The land, which is currently zoned Agricultural Residential 1, would request Medium-Density Residential zoning with a Cluster Residential District overlay. The Annexation Committee recommended the annexation by a 2-1 vote, but the Dagsboro Town Council is expected to decide on the matter in October or later.
