The district has plans to convert the existing adjacent high school into a middle school.

The Bridlewood, Garden Villas and Street properties projects were presented during the June 27 PLUS meeting.

State agencies will provide comments to developers after reviews of the projects. Developers will then have a chance to respond to the comments and file land-use applications with Sussex County to begin the public-hearing process.
