| Abstract: | The population of Middletown, Delaware, has more than tripled from 3,834 in 1990 to an
estimated 13,868 in 2005. Its population is projected to double again by 2020, as the Town
develops into a commercial center for lower New Castle County and adjoining areas of Delaware
and Maryland. This growth will cause significant and irreversible qualitative change for the
residents and government of Middletown. At the town’s request, the Institute for Public
Administration (IPA) conducted a strategic management review to recommend a strategy by
which the Town and its public officials can design and implement a proactive organizational
response to the challenges associated with this rapid growth and development. The purpose of
the project and this report is to provide a framework and strategic roadmap for the town to use in
structuring and administering the management capacity–related aspects of its transformation
from a small rural town to a growing regional center. |
