Talks are continuing in regard to the proposed Georgetown Downs, which would be situated at the same location as the old facility off Route 9 in Delaware
. The existing facility, Georgetown Raceway, has been abandoned for more than a decade.
According to a report on delmarvanow.com, a group behind the proposed facility have recently conducted talks with Town Council via an informal workshop.
The article states that town officials have said that the annexation process, if sought, cannot happen until the town's 2009 Comprehensive Development Plan is approved and signed into law. Annexation of the existing property is an item to be dealt with on the comprehensive development plan.
The proposed half-mile Georgetown Downs would replace the aged facility with a 15,000-square-foot sports bar and clubhouse.
