CBS organized because of rapid & poorly planned growth which threatens the quality of the air, land & water. 

 

  • WHO are CBS MEMBERS?

We are Democrats, Republicans & Independents, all working together to improve life in our county by seeking a more responsive & responsible County Council.

 

  • CBS members believe  

 Growth is good & inevitable. 

 Farmers have the right to sell their land to whomever they wish. 

 Developers need to make a profit in order to stay in business. 

 There is no waiting period to get full rights as a Sussex County citizen. 

 There is no great divide between eastern & western Sussex County.   

 

  • CBS members also believe  

 Growth without planning leads to sprawl. 

 Developers can make a profit without harming our environment. 

 Most members of the present County Council do not recognize the importance of linking growth with adequate & careful planning, including effective coordination with state agencies like 

DelDOT [Delaware Department of Transportation] &

DNREC [Delaware Department of Natural Resources & Environmental Control].

 

  • CBS members want our children & grandchildren to  

 Live in houses with adequate sewer/septic systems. 

 Drink safe water. 

 Breathe pure, fresh air. 

 Drive, bike, & walk safely on well-maintained & uncongested roads & walkways. 

 Know that the police, firefighters, & medics are close by when you need them. 

 Fish & crab in our waterways.   

 

Some members of the state legislature & the Sussex County Council have turned our concerns into an “us versus them” issue.

 

  • CBS is not about new versus old or eastern versus western or Republican versus Democrat.

 

  • CBS is about  

 All residents of Sussex County Council getting fair & responsible representation. 

 Farmers, developers, homeowners & renters working together. 

 Electing members to County Council who will lead as responsible stewards of Sussex County 

 

 

  • CBS needs your help to get the message out to the people of Sussex County. Please consider joining us.
