Carper to address Cenler
for the Inland Bays June 9
By Michael Short
The Center for the Inland Bays
(CIB) will host its public policy
meeting on Friday, June 9.
The public is invited to hear a
host of officials who have been in-
vited to speak about the environ-
ment and the inland bays. Gover-
nor Tom Carper will speak as will
Sussex County Association of
Towns President Bob Frederick
and Sussex County Council Presi-
dent Lynn Rogers.
Rep. Shirley Price, D-Millville,
Rep. John Schroeder, D-Lewes,
and Sen. George Bunting, D-
Bethany Beach, have all been in-
vited. The meeting is open to the
public and the focus will be on
what is being done and what
needs to be done to protect the in-
land bays. The session begins at 9
a.m. in Room 104 of the Universi-
ty of Delaware College of Marine
Studies' Cannon Lab.
A statement from the CIB said
"the major purpose of this meet-
ing is to listen to our public lead-
ers as they address:
• Their key accomplishments in
preserving and restoring
Delaware's Inland Bays.
• The major environmental is-
sues that need attention today.
• Future needs and environmen-
tal issues, what are our challenges
and opportunities?
Carper's Assistant Press Secre-
tary Jim Smith said that Carper
will likely discuss the need for
smart growth, the 18,000 acres of
open space preserved during his
tenure as governor and Delaware's
Nutrient Management Commis-
sion, which has been meeting to
try to find ways to deal with pol-
lution from nitrogen and phospho-
rus, especially from farming oper-
ations. "Smart growth is the key,"
Smith said.
Rogers said he is likely to talk
about county efforts to be sensi-
tive to the inland bays, including a
proposal to require larger lot sizes
in conservation zones around
Delaware inland bays. 'The coun-
cil is real sensitive to the whole is-
sue," he said.
Other examples are buffer re-
quirements around wetlands that
are being required by the county,
Rogers said.
Frederick said he will discuss
the importance of environmental
preservation, efforts that he said
"are more important than ever."

Wherever friends gather, expect a copy of the Cape Gazette to turn up
John and Peggy Mitchell of Rehoboth Bay visited Port Charlotte, Florida, in February and
March of this year. While they were there, they joined up with Wiima Maust, also of Rehoboth
Bay, and Chase Coals of Cape Shores who were vacationing at Pine Island's Bocilla Isla Club.
Have you ever noticed that whenever people from this area travel and get together with friends,
a copy of the Cape Gazette isn't far behind? If you haven't, we have - but then, that's our busi-
ness. Their reading complete, the couples split up and Wilma and Chase headed further south
on a Princess Line cruise including a passage of Panama Canal and several island stops.
A familiar touch, strange land
Molly Bayard and Tosh Tryon, of
Lewes and Rehoboth Beach respectively,
traveled to France with their Worcester
Prep classmates in March of this year.
They visited six cities including Rouen,
Caen, Angers, Normandy, Brittany and
Paris. Despite so many strange places,
they took a touch of the familiar with
them by carrying along a copy of the
Cape Gazette. Here they are shown read-
ing their paper in front of the Eiffel
Tower. The tower was built in 1889 for
the Paris Exposition and soars to a height
of 984 feet or 300 meters. Its designer?
Alexandre Gustave Eiffel.
