This action plan is an compilatio of ideas, issues of concern, discussions and recommendations brought forward through a series of five public workshops to address current hazards, climate change impacts, and future risks.

Lewes' proximity to water and well understood threats from coastal storms and flooding has made the city a leader in the field of hazard mitigation. With a strong Mitigation Planning Team, the City works diligently to provide its citizens and visitors with a safe place to both live and play. Recognizing the threat climate change poses to its hazard mitigation efforts, the City has worked on a pilot project that integrates climate change adaptation into hazard mitigation planning. This report summarizes the process and results from this pilot project- a project that has helped the City of Lewes enhance local understanding of climate change and natural hazards impacts and begin devising strategies to build resilience towards these impacts. This project engaged key local stakeholders- City staff, City Board I Commission members, and Regional I State partners- as well as the public and resulted in this summary report and six initial recommendations for the City to begin implementing. As both a citizen of Lewes and a member of the Mitigation Planning Team, I am proud to have been involved throughout this pilot project. I am now honored to endorse this document as the City's unified Hazard Mitigation and Climate Adaptation Action Plan. Finally, I look forward to working with local Boards and Commissions to implement the plan and create a more resilient and safe Lewes today and tomorrow, for our residents, visitors, and businesses. r--l(yL James L.

  • Sussex County
    SUSSEX COUNTY REFERENCE TIDE GAUGE - LEWES The Lewes tide gauge is located on the bay side of Cape Henlopen in Breakwater Harbor. Delaware Bay For the Delaware Bay shoreline in Sussex County, high tides occur about 25 minutes later at the Mispillion River (the north end of the county) than at the Lewes gauge. Low tides occur around 50 minutes later. Oceanfront The high and low tides on the oceanfront occur up to around 1 hour earlier than the high and low tides at the Lewes gauge. Back bays The back bays of Sussex County are Rehoboth Bay and Indian River Bay (both of which drain through the narrow Indian River Inlet), and Little Bay and Little Assawoman Bay (both of which drain into Maryland’s Assawoman Bay to the south). High tides on the back bays of Sussex County occur up to about 2½ hours later than the high tides at the Lewes gauge. Low tides occur up to about 3 hours later. The back bays present a problem during prolonged periods of onshore flow. For each successive tide cycle that the back bays are not allowed to drain, the water levels increase. Data Acquisition In order to access data from the Lewes gauge, use the National Ocean Service web site at http://tidesonline.nos.noaa.gov/ or the Advanced Hydrologic Prediction Service site at http://water.weather.gov/ahps2/index.php?wfo=phi. REFERENCE TIDE GAUGE - LEWES The tide heights from actual events referenced in the following table are those that were verified by the National Ocean Service.

  • Fy 2017 Tax Rate Proposal
    FY 2017 TAX RATE PROPOSAL PRESENTED: June 20, 2016 MILFORD BOARD OF EDUCATION EXPLANATION OF SCHOOL TAXES A property tax is charged to all owners of property within the Milford School District. All school tax rates are set in accordance with Title 14, Chapter 19 of Delaware Code. This tax is based upon the assessed value of the property and is expressed in dollars and cents per $100 of assessed value. The total property tax rate is a compilation of the following four distinctly separate tax rates. 1. Current Operating Expenses: This tax rate provides revenue to cover operating costs, such as teaching materials, textbooks, insurance and local salary expenditures. This rate can only be increased through referendum setting the maximum tax rate. 2. Tuition: This tax rate provides revenue to pay tuition costs of Milford School District students with special needs who must attend special schools within and outside of the State of Delaware. Examples include the Sussex Consortium, Howard T. Ennis, John S. Charlton, Intensive Learning Centers, and residential schools. The Milford Board of Education sets this rate annually based upon anticipated needs of the student body. This rate is quite unpredictable and subject to significant variances from year to year. 3. Debt Service: This tax rate provides revenue to pay principal and interest associated with bonds sold for major capital improvements, such as new construction, additions, and renovations. The State and local school districts share in the costs of such projects. The State share is based upon the State Equalization Formula and ranges from a high of 80% to a low of 60%.
