Dear Constituents of the 38th District,
I wanted to take this time to update you on a few issues that impact our 38th District. As always, please feel free to contact me at any time if you would like to discuss any issues that are important to you. I recently mailed all households in my district a “Newsletter” that also highlights some important issues. If you did not receive that mailing and would like a copy, please contact my office.
The Millville Sewer District construction project is a least 1 month ahead of schedule. This is great news. This project has moved along very smoothly.
DelDOT reports that the land acquisition for the Alternate Rt. 26 project has almost been completed. They hope to start construction on this around the Fall of 2009.
I am happy to report that we are in the final stages of the dredging of the Assawoman Canal. This project is anticipated to be completed this dredging season.
The Friends of the South Coastal Library report that the both the construction and the fund drive is “winding down” and looking very good. They hope to meet their fund drive goal upon completion of the expansion project. This will benefit the whole community and I ask that you continue to support them.
We have received a federal grant to help make a Dental Clinic in Sussex County a reality. I have attended the first meeting on this and even though Sussex Smiles has dissolved, we are working with La Red Health Clinic to continue this quest. This is a much needed service in Sussex County and I will continue to work to see this through.
Thank you for allowing me to serve you in Dover. Feel free to contact me at any time and be sure to attend my public “Coffee’s” when possible.
Sincerely,
Gerald W. Hocker
