Tull Gardens is a proposed neighborhood at Atlanta Road and Tull Drive in Seaford, Sussex County, Delaware. County planning records describe a site plan for 587 homes. The mix is 317 single-family homes, 126 stacked townhouses (units built on top of one another) and 144 standard townhouses.
The latest county filing is dated January 2024. An engineering firm is listed on the filing. The records do not name a developer or builder.
No news coverage, meeting agendas, developer web page or approval decisions specific to this project were found. Nothing is known online about opposition, approvals or who will live there. The explanation rests on the county records alone.
What it could mean nearby
- A project of 587 homes would add many daily car trips to Atlanta Road and nearby streets. No traffic study was found in the sources reviewed.
- The homes would add residents who need schools, water, sewer and emergency services. No source describes how these needs would be met.
- The mix of single-family homes, townhouses and stacked townhouses would add several housing types to the area.
Where it stands
The county filing is a site plan, and no approval decision was found online. Site plans normally go through review by county planning staff and a planning commission. Engineering and agency sign-offs follow before construction permits are issued.
