Top issues during term (20)
10th Street and Walnut pedestrian safety
Any fix — from signal retiming to a turn lane — would draw on city or DelDOT road funds.
US 113 Pathway Phase 1 DelDOT Agreement
The city takes on ongoing path maintenance costs, but the project itself is in the five-year capital improvement plan with grant support.
Riverwalk Wall Repair and Fishing Platform Location
Up to $504,700 from reserves, with about $293,000 expected to be returned to general fund reserves.
Short-term rental regulation gap
Rehoboth Boulevard corridor traffic safety
Federal grant opportunities like Safe Streets for All and TAP funding are on the table, but the city's last application wasn't awarded.
Northwest water infrastructure: tank and second well
About $3.3 million in contracts, all funded through FY 26 project 5-WA-03 and tracking within the $7.5 million overall infrastructure budget.
Carlisle Fire Company Enhancement Funds Request / Renovations
$33,000 from the Fire Enhancement Fund, which had a $76,001 balance.
FY2025 Edward Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance Grant
If awarded, $435,000 in federal funds could offset an estimated $400,000 city expense.
County Assessments
Saves an estimated $400,000 versus a city-run reassessment; individual tax impacts coming by December 2026.
IQ Fiber Broadband Initiative
Miller Investments Comprehensive Plan Amendment and Rezoning

Public comment response policy
FY25 road paving project
Total cost is $748,259, including a $650,666 base bid, KCI project management, and a 5% contingency.
Litter and tree care in Milford
Would require funding for signage, receptacles, an arborist position, and tree planting.
Pedestrian safety and warming centers for unhoused residents
Crosswalk improvements and a warming center site would carry city or partner costs not yet estimated.
Riverwalk Lighting Project
$160,000 from general fund reserves, with up to $80,000 in green energy funding possibly offsetting the impact.
Carlisle Fire Company Conditional Use (Ordinance 2025-20)
Verizon Underground Utility Relocation — Milford Corporate Center Phase 1
Up to $79,485, not budgeted in the project but expected to have negligible impact on per-acre cost.
