FYI

We have filed a lawsuit in Delaware Superior Court challenging the legality of the City of Lewes’s building permit fee structure, arguing the city is unlawfully using building permit fees as a revenue-generating tool in violation of Delaware law, the city’s own charter, and constitutional protections.

The lawsuit alleges that the City of Lewes doubled its building permit fee from 1.5% to 3% of construction costs specifically to generate additional municipal revenue, despite already collecting permit fees far exceeding the actual cost of administering its building department.

HBADE is prepared to stand up against unlawful attempts to increase the cost of housing anywhere in this state.
