Episode Details

Delaware just unleashed a housing revolution with Senate Bill 23 — a law forcing local governments to slash approval times and ditch public hearings for most new developments, sparking chaos and concern. While developers celebrate faster builds, Sussex County has paused all major subdivision hearings, baffled by the sudden shift. Projects with 60-70 homes are moving forward without public input, leaving officials like Steve McCarron scrambling. Critics fear this accelerates expensive housing, not affordable units, and warn the new “written comments only” process is a recipe for secrecy and corruption — turning housing decisions into shadowy real estate deals.
