At a meeting held on September 1, 2020, the Historic Review Board considered the application, public testimony provided at its August 18, 2020 public hearing, as well as the recommendation provided by the Department of Land Use. On a motion made by Mr. Brook and seconded by Mr. Patel, the Historic Review Board voted unanimously to DENY the proposed permit as the proposed materials are inconsistent with the New Castle County Historic and Cultural Resource Design Guidelines for exterior modifications, as well as the surrounding National Register Historic District. The Historic Review Board recommended the applicant bring forward different materials that maintain historic character and nature of the building. Discussion preceding the vote included the following: Ms. Hatch gave a brief presentation on the application and read into the record the Staff Recommendation. Mr. Davis confirmed with Staff that the Historic Review Board has the ability to deny the proposed materials for the exterior of the structure, as the property was located with the bounds of an Historic overlay zoning district. Mr. Brook noted that the staff is following the required design guidelines and asked Staff if they had talked with the applicants about alternative materials. Ms. Hatch noted that the Department had talked with the applicants regarding what materials are appropriate based on the proposed design guidelines; however, the applicants wished to proceed with the T1-11 siding. Mr. Brook stated that the Historic Review Board is charged with ensuring that Historic overlay properties follow the appropriate design guidelines. Mr. Zahralddin concurred, noting the applicants had not demonstrated why they would not consider higher quality materials that align with the NCC Historic and Cultural Resource Design Guidelines. NEW BUSINESS None. REPORT OF THE PRESERVATION PLANNER Ms. Hatch noted that the demolition permit for 565 Walker School Road was not on the agenda this evening, as the Staff has been trying to work with both the DE Division of Fish and Wildlife and the DE Division of Historic and Cultural Affairs for an update on the application prior to bringing it back before the Historic Review Board for consideration. Ms. Hatch noted that the Department is continuing to work on the Historic Marker Program proposed by Councilwoman Durham and noted that the Department is close to ironing out final details. Finally, Ms. Hatch stated that the next meeting would be on September 15, 2020 at 5:00 pm. Mr. Patel asked if there was an update on the demolition application for 2203 W Newport Pike. Ms. Hatch stated that the Department is meeting with the engineer and the legal counsel in the upcoming week regarding the application. Ms. Hatch stated the County is also considering utilizing Certified Local Government Grant funds to have the structure documented. Ms. Hatch stated the application should be appearing before the HRB at its October business meeting. REPORT OF THE CHAIRPERSON None. COMMENTS FROM THE PUBLIC None.

This report documents a Phase I Archaeological Survey conducted adjacent to the (., i Tybouts Corner landfill, in New Castle County, Delaware. This survey was performed by '•<• Cultural Heritage Research Services, Inc. (CHRS) of North Wales, Pennsylvania for DPI Consultants of Wilmington, Delaware. Tybouts Corner is located at the intersection of Red Lion Road (Route 71) and DuPont Parkway (Route 13). The project area lies 1800 to 2700 feet southwest of the intersection, within the "V" formed by the converging roads. The project area is irregularly shaped, with one hundred feet bordering Route 71 and two hundred feet fronting Route 13. Prehistoric and historic archaeological site potential for the area is low. The project area is far removed from topographic, environmental, or geological features which would have been attractive to prehistoric populations. Potential prehistoric sites in the study area would, if present, be expected to consist of small, light density, lithic scatters. Historic maps of the study region show two structures in the vicinity of the project area during the nineteenth century. The location of these structures was carefully scaled. If the maps are precise, these structures would have been located outside the project boundaries.

  • Delaware Revolutionary Tax Lists from the Delaware Public Archives
    Delaware Revolutionary Tax Lists from the Delaware Public Archives Subcommittee of Revolutionary Taxes, Genealogy Committee, National Society Sons of the American Revolution John D. Sinks, Harold Ford, and Tilghman McCabe, Jr. March 17, 2016 Purpose of the Report Background. The state of Delaware first passed tax laws in 1777. There were earlier colonial laws, but of course none of them were passed to support the Revolution or to address requests of the Continental Congress. The Delaware tax lists that provide evidence of Patriotic Service for the Sons of the American Revolution must date between 1777 and 1783 inclusive. Every state tax levied by Delaware from 1777 through 1783, supported the War, including some that addressed a request of the Continental Congress. This included retiring bills of credit, an action requested several times by the Continental Congress in order to maintain the financial underpinnings of the Revolution. A colonial law authorizing counties to levy taxes to support civil functions remained in effect throughout the Revolution, so there is a need to distinguish county taxes (which do not provide evidence of Patriotic Service), from state taxes and combined county and state taxes (which do provide evidence of Patriotic Service). The Delaware Public Archives has custody of a number of Revolutionary tax records for the three counties of the state as well as county levy court records. These records include lists of assessments made from 1777 through 1783 as well as lists of delinquents for Kent County. By virtue of delinquency for a tax supporting the War, a taxpayer does not qualify for patriotic service even if the tax supporting the War was paid late.

The diverse collections are strongest for early Wilmington and New Castle County merchants and millers. HSD’s collections on Brandywine Mills are extensive for the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, and strong on mercantile activity, agriculture (including a considerable number of valuable diaries), and transportation. Finally, the HSD holds a significant number of late eighteenth and nineteenth century general store records. HSD does not have many finding aids or indexes to collections; however, searches of the card catalog will yield important sources and connections. Also please see: Carol E.

RODNEY FAMILY HSD holds an extensive collection of papers relating to Thomas Rodney (1744-1811), many of which have changed names over time. At HSD the current Rodney Collection. (ca. 24 boxes) is the same as the H.F. Brown Collection. It contains the papers of both Caesar and Tomas Rodney.
