Update: Markell Administration Approves Partial Permit for Occupy DE

DNREC has apparently informed the Occupy Delaware applicants that the permit would be authorized for protests on Saturday and Sunday at Fletcher Brown Park during park hours. However, the permit could not be authorized for the weekends as there is a day care center right next to the park and the children use the park during the day for their outdoor activities. However, the letter that DNREC sent made clear “we would be pleased to work with Occupy Delaware to identify other parks at which a longer term permit could be issued.”
