Charter change legislation allowing the Rehoboth Beach city manager to delegate all supervisory authority, including oversight of the beach patrol, has been introduced.
House Bill 156 was introduced April 20 by Speaker of the House Rep. Pete Schwartzkopf, D-Rehoboth Beach. It was assigned to the House Administration Committee, of which Schwartzkopf is a member. Sen. Ernie Lopez, R-Lewes, Sen. Bruce Ennis, D-Smyrna, Sen. Dave Wilson, R-Bridgeville, and Rep. Ruth Briggs King, R-Georgetown, have all signed on as bill sponsors.
General Assembly approval and the governor’s signature are required for all of the state’s municipalities to change their charters. The last time Rehoboth went through this process was in 2019 – one change made sure the people who should be voting in town elections are; a second change created a lodging tax on hotels, motels and tourist homes.
