Council President Slavin declared the Open Forum in session and reminded those present that Council was not in official session and could not take formal action. There was no one present wishing to speak during the Open Forum. The invocation was given by Bishop Thomas L. Holsey, followed by the Pledge of Allegiance. AGENDA ADDITIONS/DELETIONS Mr. Neil moved for approval of the agenda, seconded by Mr. Cole and unanimously carried. Mr. Neil moved for approval of the consent agenda, seconded by Mr. Lindell and carried by a unanimous roll call vote. ADOPTION OF MINUTES - REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING OF JANUARY 28, 2019 The Minutes of the Regular Council Meeting of January 28, 2019 were unanimously approved by motion of Mr. Neil, seconded by Mr. Lindell and bore the written approval of Mayor Christiansen. PRESENTATION TO MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL - DOVER LIONS CLUB On behalf of the Dover Lions Club, Mayor Christiansen presented City Council with a wooden plaque in honor of President’s Day. PRESENTATION - 2018 ROBBINS HOSE COMPANY (DOVER FIRE) ANNUAL REPORT Fire Chief Ronald Rhodes reviewed a presentation depicting highlights of the 2018 Annual Report for the Robbins Hose Company (Dover Fire). Mr. Polce asked if the Fire Department bills insurance companies in order to recoup the cost of HAZMAT and Rescue/EMS calls. Responding, Chief Rhodes advised that they do participate in rescue billing for reimbursement; however, he noted that reimbursement is made on a “first come, first served” basis. He stated that they have a company that handles the billing for them, and then at the end of the month, if they were eligible for reimbursement during that time, they would receive a check. Responding to Mr. Polce, Chief Rhodes stated that he would furnish the data on any money recouped through that process.

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF FEBRUARY 25, 2019 PAGE 2 Responding to Mr. Hare, Chief Rhodes advised that the Fire Marshal’s Office issues fines for false alarms, as provided for in the Dover Code. Responding to Mr. Anderson, Chief Rhodes noted that their priorities for the coming year would be working with Mrs. Donna Mitchell, City Manager, to address issues at Station 2 and replacement of one of their engines. Mr. Hare moved for acceptance of the 2018 Annual Report of the Robbins Hose Company. The motion was seconded Mr. Anderson and unanimously carried. COUNCIL COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE REPORT - JANUARY 26, 2019 The Council Committee of the Whole met on January 29, 2019 at 6:00 p.m., with Council President Slavin presiding. Members of Council present were Mr. Anderson (arrived at 6:01 p.m.), Mr. Sudler, Mr. Neil, Mr. Cole, Mr. Polce, Mr. Hare, and Mr. Lindell. Mayor Christiansen was also present. Mrs. Doyle (Utility) was present. Mrs. Haass (Utility) was absent. UTILITY COMMITTEE The Utility Committee met with Chairman Cole presiding. Evaluation of Proposals - Design and Construction of Parks and Recreation Building Mrs. Donna Mitchell, City Manager, reviewed the background and analysis regarding the design and construction of the Parks and Recreation Building to be sited adjacent to the John W. Pitts Center. Staff recommended awarding the contract to Dutchman Contracting to perform the Design and Construction of a new Parks and Recreation Building, Bid #19-0012PR, for the amount of $290,702. In response to Mr. Neil, Mrs. Mitchell explained that the budget was $260,000. She stated that staff was going to transfer funds from the Schutte Park improvements project to cover the difference, since that project would not be completed this year. Mrs. Mitchell noted that there was a change to this project for an additional bathroom because there was concern regarding the administrative staff and construction staff coming in from the field using the same bathroom. The Committee recommended awarding the contract to Dutchman Contracting to perform the Design and Construction of a new Parks and Recreation Building, Bid #19-0012PR, for the amount of $290,702, as recommended by staff. By consent agenda, Mr. Neil moved for approval of the Committee’s recommendation, seconded by Mr. Lindell and carried by a unanimous roll call vote.

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF FEBRUARY 25, 2019 PAGE 3 Annexation Request - 2920 North DuPont Highway, Owned by NewWind Properties 2920 LLC Mrs. Donna Mitchell, City Manager, reviewed the Petition to Annex and Rezone Property located at 2920 North DuPont Highway, owned by NewWind Properties 2920 LLC. She advised members that the property does not have City water service, so it would have to use a well, and it does not have City sewer, and the developer will have to obtain approval from the Delaware Department of Transportation (DelDOT) and City of Dover to connect the sanitary sewer on the opposite side of Route 13. Mrs. Mitchell noted that the developer wants to utilize the existing well and connect to the City’s sanitary sewer system. She stated that the standard basis for sewer charges would apply, and impact fees for the sanitary sewer connection would be $17,816, based on the fixture count provided by the developer. Mrs. Mitchell advised that the monthly estimated sanitary sewer cost would be $194.70, if annexed into the City. She explained that, since the property will not have a water meter for the well, staff developed an average charge for a similar business and informed the developer that this would be the monthly fixed cost for sewer. Mrs. Mitchell stated that the developer would need to obtain necessary approval from DelDOT and the Delaware Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Control (DNREC) prior to construction, and the Office of Drinking Water for use of the well. She also noted that the applicant will need to abide by any federal, state or local laws for water quality. Mr. Neil asked what the Department of Public Works would need in terms of approval or verification, before moving forward. Responding to Mr. Neil, Mr. Jason Lyon, Water / Wastewater Manager, stated that DelDOT will have to approve the layout and maintenance of traffic, since the connection will require boring under Route 13, which is a State road. Additionally, the developer will have to provide a plan of action and show how they are actually going to connect to the sewer on the western side of Route 13. Mr. Lyon explained that, most likely, they will have a pit on each side of Route 13 and bore underneath to make the connection. He stated that this would require DNREC approval because it has responsibility over centralized sewer. Mr. Lyon advised that DNREC may have to approve the construction as well, depending on whether the business will produce more than 2,000 gallons of sewage per day. In response to Mr. Neil, Mr. Lyon stated that the property owner would need to have these approvals to get annexation. He informed members that, to his knowledge, the developer had done enough legwork with DelDOT to feel comfortable proceeding with the annexation request. Mr. Lyon stated that he felt that the constructability is feasible and should not be an issue, and a condition of the annexation should be that they have sanitary sewer. Mr. Anderson stated that he tended to have concerns with annexing properties, particularly noncontiguous properties that add to the infrastructure, and asked who would pay for the connection cost. He indicated that this was a high priority area in the 2008 Comprehensive Plan and asked if the pipe would be large enough to

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF FEBRUARY 25, 2019 PAGE 4 accommodate future annexations in this area. Responding to Mr. Anderson, Mr. Lyon stated that all of the costs will be borne by the contractor and developer. He noted that the impact fee mentioned by Mrs. Mitchell is essentially the cost for the life of the infrastructure and to get service to this property. Mr. Lyon advised that he had not yet seen the plans indicating the size they were planning to bore under the road; however, he supposed that the developer was only going to put in the lateral that could supply his property. The Committee recommended approval of the annexation. The motion was seconded by Mr. Hare and carried with Mr. Anderson voting no. By consent agenda, Mr. Neil moved for approval of the Committee’s recommendation, seconded by Mr. Lindell and carried by a unanimous roll call vote. By consent agenda, Mr. Neil moved for acceptance of the Council Committee of the Whole Report, seconded by Mr. Lindell and carried by a unanimous roll call vote. MONTHLY REPORTS - DECEMBER 2018 By motion of Mr. Neil, seconded by Mr. Lindell, the following monthly reports were accepted by consent agenda: City Assessor's Report City Council’s Community Enhancement Fund Report City Manager's Report City Planner's Report Fire Chief's Report Police Chief's Report QUARTERLY REVIEW - CAPITAL INVESTMENT PLAN (CIP) (OCTOBER, NOVEMBER, AND DECEMBER) Members were provided the Capital Investment Plan (CIP) Report for October, November, and December 2018. By consent agenda, Mr. Neil moved for acceptance of the Quarterly Capital Investment Plan (CIP) Report for October, November, and December 2018. The motion was seconded by Mr. Lindell and carried by a unanimous roll call vote. APPOINTMENTS/REAPPOINTMENTS RECOMMENDED BY MAYOR CHRISTIANSEN Mayor Christiansen recommended the following appointments/reappointments: Election Board - Cherritta L. Matthews (Second District) - Three-Year Term to Expire May 2021 (Reappointment) Silver Lake Commission - One-Year Terms to Expire May 2019 Marie E. Kozel (to fill the expired term of Ann Marie Townshend) Michael W. Lewis (to fill the unexpired term of James A. Burcham)

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF FEBRUARY 25, 2019 PAGE 5 By consent agenda, Mr. Neil moved for approval of the appointments, as recommended by Mayor Christiansen. The motion was seconded by Mr. Lindell and carried by a unanimous roll call vote. SELECTION OF POLLING PLACE FOR 2019 REGULAR MUNICIPAL ELECTION Staff recommended utilizing Dover First Seventh-day Adventist Church at 647 Wyoming Avenue as the Second District polling place for the April 16, 2019 Regular Municipal Election. It was noted that the Second District was the only district with an election this year. Mr. Anderson, noting that he was in favor of this location, asked how much it would cost to rent the facility. Mrs. Traci McDowell, City Clerk, advised that there would be a donation to the church in the amount of $150. Mr. Anderson moved to utilize Dover First Seventh-day Adventist Church at 647 Wyoming Avenue as the Second District polling place for the April 16, 2019 Regular Municipal Election. The motion was seconded by Mr. Neil and unanimously carried. REZONING REQUEST FOR PROPERTY LOCATED AT 878 SOUTH STATE STREET - FIRST READING OF PROPOSED ORDINANCE #2019-08 A request was received to rezone property located at 878 South State Street, consisting of 9,600 S.F.+/-, owned by Andre M. and Jane J. Beauregard. The property is currently zoned R-8 (One-Family Residence) and the proposed zoning is C-1 (Neighborhood Commercial). (Tax Parcel: ED-05-077.17-03-51.00-000, Second Council District; Planning Reference: Z–19-04) Prior to amending the zoning ordinance and zoning map of the City of Dover, a public hearing is required. Mr. Neil moved to refer the request to the Planning Commission on March 18, 2019 and set a public hearing for April 8, 2019 at 7:30 p.m. The motion was seconded by Mr. Cole and unanimously carried. In accordance with Section 1-9 of the Dover Code, Council acknowledged the First Reading of Proposed Ordinance #2019-08 as read by the City Clerk, by title only, as follows: AN ORDINANCE AMENDING THE ZONING ORDINANCE AND ZONING MAP OF THE CITY OF DOVER BY CHANGING THE ZONING DESIGNATION OF PROPERTY LOCATED AT 878 SOUTH STATE STREET FINAL READING - PROPOSED ORDINANCE #2019-02 The First Reading of the Proposed Ordinance was accomplished during the Council Meeting of January 28, 2109. Council President Slavin reminded members of the public that copies of the proposed ordinance were available at the entrance of the Council Chambers or on the City’s website at www.cityofdover.com under “Government.” Mr. Sudler moved that the Final Reading of the proposed ordinance be acknowledged by title only, seconded by Mr. Neil and unanimously carried.

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF FEBRUARY 25, 2019 PAGE 6 Mr. Anderson, noting that, unfortunately, the ordinance is currently unenforceable, stated that he did not plan to vote in favor of the amendment because he objects to the idea that the local government was preempted. He stated that the problem, in his view, was with the state law, not with a logical expression of the local government that child rapists should not be living next to day cares. Mr. Anderson stated that he thought that the state law had two issues. One, it lets people that have committed these horrendous crimes out of prison way too soon and it keeps people in prison who have committed lesser crimes way too long. Mr. Anderson stated that the second issue was that a problem was created because of the way the state defines sex offenders. He said that the state has people on the sex offender registry who do not belong on the registry, but they are afraid to take them off because they don't want someone to say that they are weak on the issue. On the other hand, there are people who get mixed up and get into a situation like this by the definition, who should have a method to appeal their being on the registry, and people who have been caught up in crimes and were added in the registry, some cases decades after their offenses, when the law was amended, and for relatively minor offenses. Mr. Anderson stated that he hoped the state would pay as much attention in looking at revising the state law, so it is a more just law, as they did with preempting a logical expression of the local government for the safety of its citizens. Mr. Lindell stated that he understood Mr. Anderson's concern about the lack of local input and asked if the state had solicited any input from local governments, or the City of Dover, or the Dover Police Department, regarding the change in the statute. Responding, Mr. Polce advised that when the state was going to revise this specific section of the code, the League of Local Governments was included in the dialogue through several iterations of the legislation and there were a number of stake holder engagements. Mr. Polce advised that this amendment is in compliance to federal regulation and law as well. Mr. Neil stated that he agreed with Councilman Anderson and suggested that they may have to contact Senators Carper and Coons in order to get changes in the federal law. Mr. Lindell asked Police Chief Marvin Mailey what the compliance rate was with the current sex offender registry. Responding, Chief Mailey advised that, while he did not have the data in front of him, he does see reports on violations all the time and they do not have that many people who fail to follow the guidelines set forth by their probation or parole officers. By motion of Mr. Anderson, seconded by Mr. Sudler, Council, by a roll call vote of seven (7) yes (Sudler, Neil, Cole, Polce, Hare, Lindell, and Slavin) and one (1) no (Anderson), adopted Ordinance #2019-02, as follows: CITY OF DOVER ORDINANCE #2019-02 BE IT ORDAINED BY THE MAYOR AND COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF DOVER, IN COUNCIL MET: That Chapter 70 - Offenses and Miscellaneous Provisions, Section 70-7 - Registered Sexual Offenders of the Dover Code be amended to read as follows:

No. 2013-08, 7-8-2013) ADOPTED: FEBRUARY 25, 2019 CITY MANAGER'S ANNOUNCEMENTS Mrs. Donna Mitchell, City Manager, reminded members that the concrete work is still ongoing at Mockingbird Avenue and New Street, and that the Lakewood Place water main replacement was

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF FEBRUARY 25, 2019 PAGE 8 ongoing. Noting that all members had received an email and a bulletin post, she stated that, based on equipment constraints, they would not be street sweeping during the winter months and that it would resume again on April 1st. COUNCIL MEMBERS' ANNOUNCEMENTS Mr. Slavin wished Councilman Polce a happy birthday on March 10th. Mr. Anderson encouraged citizens who are interested in getting involved in city government to go to the City’s website and fill out the application for the City Committees. He noted that the election was coming up, and there will be new appointments coming up in May, so he wanted to encourage everyone to go ahead and get involved. Mr. Anderson noted that there were a couple of important things happening with the Police Athletic League and the Dover Police Department and he yielded to Police Chief Marvin Mailey. Chief Mailey announced that Dover Police PAL Incorporated would be holding a basketball skills camp on Saturday, March 23rd, at the Pitts Center between 9:00 a.m. and noon. He noted that it is free to boys and girls, fifth grade through eighth grade, and pre-registration is online at www.doverpolice.org. Chief Mailey thanked the City of Dover Parks and Recreation Department for partnering with them on this outreach effort. Mr. Lindell congratulated the Dover High School Boys Indoor Track and Field team for their state title the first week of February. He also noted that the boy's basketball team at Dover High had won the Henlopen Conference Title Friday night, in front of the home crowd. Mr. Hare congratulated the Public Works Department on its Annual Chili Cook Off. Mr. Neil moved for adjournment, seconded by Mr. Cole and unanimously carried. Meeting adjourned at 7:57 p.m. TRACI A. McDOWELL CITY CLERK All ordinances, resolutions, motions, and orders adopted by City Council during their Regular Meeting of February 25, 2019, are hereby approved. ROBIN R.

Amendment to Map 12-1: Land Development Plan Map – Request for Land Use Classification Change from Residential High Density to Industrial and Public Utilities on Commerce Way This proposed amendment is an applicant-initiated amendment, where one property owner is requesting a change to the Land Use Classification for property located on the north side of Commerce Way. The Request is that Land Use Classification be changed from Residential High Density to Industrial and Public Utilities as depicted on Map 12-1: Land Development Plan. This request is associated with the rezoning application for the same property, identified as Z-19-01 Lands of H&M Properties, LLC. Applicant’s Request This Request was submitted by the property owner H&M Properties, LLC. The property currently has the zoning of RG-2 (General Residence Zone) and IPM (Industrial Park Manufacturing Zone). The current zoning (and Land Use Classifications) was the result of a Comprehensive Plan Amendment of February 2008 and its associated rezoning application Z-08-03 that was filed in anticipation of development of an expansion to the adjacent Woodmill Apartment Complex. The development plan C-08-14 Lands of Woodmill Apartments Expansion expired prior to commencement of construction. The property owner now wishes to return the entire parcel to the IPM zoning; see attached Request and Exhibit Map. The Request for a 22.967-acre parcel located on the north side of Commerce Way is to revise the Land Use Classification from Residential High Density to Industrial and Public Utilities. The area to be revised consists of 13.967 acres as the remaining area of 9.00 acres currently has the Land Use Classification of Industrial and Public Utilities. Comprehensive Plan The 2008 Comprehensive Plan depicts the subject areas of 13.967 acres as Residential High Density with the balance of the property as Industrial and Public Utilities as the Land Use Classifications on Map 12-1: Land Development Plan Map. The Request seeks to take the entire parcel to the Industrial and Public Utilities. The approaches to Land Uses are also discussed in other areas of the Comprehensive Plan; see excerpts below. Regarding Residential Lan Uses and the Land Use Classification of Residential High Density, this is discussed in Chapter 12 – Land Development Plan, pages 145-148. Specifically, Residential High Density is discussed as follows (page 147-148):

MI-19-02 – Comprehensive Plan Amendment 2019 Report to City Council: Planning Commission Recommendation of February 19, 2019 Page 3 Recommendation for High Density Residential High Density Residential land uses involve a gross density of eight or more dwelling units per acre and may include high rise, mid-rise or garden apartments, and townhouse developments. Duplexes and single family homes are also permitted in mixed-use developments. The following zoning districts permit high density residential development: RG-1 (General Residence), RG-2 (General Residence), RG-3 (Group Housing), RG-4 (Multi-Story Apartments), RG-5 (Mid-Rise Apartments), RM-2 (Medium Density Residence), RGO (General Residence and Office), and MHP (Mobile Home Park). The Comprehensive Land Development Plan recommends that high density residential be dispersed throughout the City along arterial roadways in close proximity to other high- density residential uses, schools, neighborhood commercial areas, transit service, and other compatible non-residential land use areas. High density residential development is also appropriate in some areas of the downtown, most of which are shown as mixed use on the Land Development Plan. Although very few vacant developable acres have been designated for high-density residential use, housing types usually associated with higher density zones may be accommodated through the Planned Neighborhood Design option or Traditional Neighborhood Design Regarding Employment Centers and Industrial Land Uses, in Chapter 12 – Land Development Plan, page 154 and 155, the 2008 Comprehensive Plan states the following: Employment Centers: Office Park, Manufacturing and Industrial Land Uses To a large extent, office parks and industrial land uses are relegated to areas partially or completely occupied by existing industrial and/or manufacturing uses. A vast area of vacant developable land north of and adjoining Dover Air Force Base has been designated for industrial and manufacturing uses. Such uses are generally more compatible with military operations and seem to be less effected by noise associated with military over flights. While the Land Development Plan map shows this area as ‘Industrial,’ the City will not rezone residential lands within this area that are actively used as residences until such time that these residential uses cease. Other areas for employment centers are adjacent to transportation routes (vehicle and rail). Assumptions: Employment Centers 1. The Dover community is fortunate to harbor several regional, national and international industry leaders within the City limits. Dover intends to accommodate the reasonable aspirations and expectations of its industrial and manufacturing community to support the vitality of these precious resources. 2. A healthy and well-rounded local economy will depend upon diversity in business and employment opportunities. Goal: Employment Centers Create a more vibrant, growing economy with a broader range of job opportunities through an increase in office and industrial development in appropriate and designated areas.

MI-19-02 – Comprehensive Plan Amendment 2019 Report to City Council: Planning Commission Recommendation of February 19, 2019 Page 4 Policies: Employment Centers 1. Protect existing industrial, office park and manufacturing establishments from encroachment by incompatible land uses, which could result in nuisance complaints, hazardous situations, and human conflict. 2. Provide sufficient land area for industrial purposes to enable the expansion of existing industries and the establishments of new facilities. 3. Provide for a variety of office park and industrial development opportunities through the designation of areas for small, medium and large industrial establishments within planned industrial parks. 4. Promote alternative modes of accessibility including pedestrian and bicycle facilities, bus shelters and transit stops, and provide incentives for car and van pooling of employees. Recommendations: Employment Centers Office Parks The Land Development Plan designates specific tracts of land of various sizes for office park development. Office park development involves an integrated development of office buildings with shared entrances, driveways and parking. The majority of uses permitted within an office park are generally weekday professional office uses involving very little or no activity at night or on weekends. For this reason, the office park designation may be viewed as a transitional use category when situated between more intense commercial and industrial land uses and residential land uses. This designation usually involves the C-PO (Commercial/Professional Office Zone) designation. Another sizable area west of Bayhealth Medical Center (Kent General Hospital) which has been developing into a medical office environment has been designated for future office park development as well. This area includes frontage areas of South Queen and South New Streets and the westerly side of South Governors Avenue from Water Street to Waples Avenue. Much of this area is currently in service commercial use and includes an automobile dealership and related businesses as well as the Spence’s Bazaar property. Smaller scale areas for office parks are the Woodbrook complex on South Governors Avenue and areas along Route 8. Large Scale Manufacturing The Land Development Plan designates all existing major industrial facilities and associated vacant lands for industrial and manufacturing use. These properties include the manufacturing facilities of Kraft General Foods, Playtex Products, Sunroc, Scott Paper and General Metalcraft. Industrial Parks Several planned industrial parks have been initiated since 1986, which offer industrial development potential. The Land Development Plan designates these sites for continued industrial use. These sites include Kent County AeroPark, Enterprise Business Park, College Business Park and McKee Business Park.

MI-19-02 – Comprehensive Plan Amendment 2019 Report to City Council: Planning Commission Recommendation of February 19, 2019 Page 5 Recommendations of the Planning Staff: The Planning Staff provides the following recommendations regarding the Comprehensive Plan Amendment 2019: Land Use Classification Change on Commerce Way. The City of Dover is currently in the process of drafting its 2019 Comprehensive Plan Project document; however, it is not anticipated to have the plan adoption and certification process completed in the timeframe for action sought by this applicant to proceed with the sale and future development of the property. As part of the preparation of the 2019 Comprehensive Plan, a Preliminary DRAFT of the Land Development Plan Map Series (4 Maps Quadrants A-D) was released by the Planning Office on August 23, 2018. This Preliminary DRAFT Land Development Plan Map recommends that the entire subject parcel have the Land Use Classification of Industrial. See Preliminary DRAFT Map Quadrant C as Presented on the 2019 Comprehensive Plan Project webpage at https://www.cityofdover.com/2019-comprehensive-plan or the following link: https://evogov.s3.amazonaws.com/media/27/media/167638.pdf Both affordable housing and economic development are needed in the City, and both issues are addressed in the City’s 2008 Comprehensive Plan. In this case, there are two priority issues that compete: the need for affordable housing and the need for land to support economic development. As part of the Enterprise Business Park, this site is one of the few “shovel ready” industrial sites in the City. Based on the lack of action (in almost 10 years) to develop the residential portion of the property, the Planning Staff supports the proposed change to the Land Use Classification of Industrial. With the proximity this entire property to the Enterprise Business Park it seems to be more appropriate and desirable for industrial development. Recommendation of the Planning Commission: At the Planning Commission Meeting of February 19, 2019, the application was represented by Ms. Cynthia Yencer of R & R Commercial Realty on behalf of the property owner H&M Properties, LLC. During the Public Hearing, one member of the public spoke regarding the proposed Comprehensive Plan Amendment Request application. The Planning Commission recommended in favor of the Land Use Classification Change from Residential High Density to Industrial and Public Utilities for the property on Commerce Way as proposed (8-0) with one member absent. See also the included excerpt of the DRAFT Meeting Minutes of the February 19, 2019 Planning Commission meeting.

CITY OF DOVER PLANNING COMMISSION February 19, 2019 Excerpt from Meeting Minutes – Draft The Regular Meeting of the City of Dover Planning Commission was held on Tuesday, February 19, 2019 at 7:00 PM in the City Hall Council Chambers with Chairman Mr. Tolbert presiding. Members present were Mr. Adams, Mr. Roach, Ms. Edwards, Mr. Holt, Mr. Baldwin, Dr. Jones, Ms. Maucher and Mr. Tolbert. Mrs. Welsh was absent. Staff members present were Mr. Dave Hugg, Mrs. Dawn Melson-Williams, Mr. Jason Lyon, Mr. Julian Swierczek, Mr. Eddie Diaz and Mrs. Kristen Mullaney. MI-19-02 Comprehensive Plan Amendment 2019 – Public Hearing and Review for Recommendation to City Council on an Amendment to the 2008 Comprehensive Plan, as amended. The Amendment is for Consideration of Amendment to Map 12-1: Land Development Plan Map. The Request for a 22.967-acre parcel located on the north side of Commerce Way is to revise the Land Use Classification from Residential High Density to Industrial and Public Utilities. The area to be revised consists of 13.967 acres as the remaining area of 9.00 acres currently has the Land Use Classification of Industrial and Public Utilities. The property owner is H&M Properties, LLC c/o Jack Melvin. Property Address: 22.967 Acres on Commerce Way. Tax Parcel: ED-05-076.10-02-07.03-000. Ordinance #2019-04. This is associated with Rezoning Application Z-19-01. Representative: Ms. Cynthia Yencer, R & R Commercial Realty Mrs. Melson-Williams stated that this is a request for an Amendment to what is the 2008 Comprehensive Plan for the City of Dover. Tonight, we are considering an amendment to Map 12-1 which is the Land Development Plan Map that is included as part of the Comprehensive Plan. For this request, there are dealing with a property that is located on the north side of Commerce Way. The request is to revise the land use classification from Residential High Density to a classification of Industrial and Public Utilities. Mrs. Melson-Williams shared a visual map example of the before and after for this property. As you can see, currently the Land Development Plan Map is split between the two land use classifications of the Residential High Density and the Industrial. The applicant made a request to the City in December which is the timeframe for the once a year time that they consider Comprehensive Plan Amendments to change that classification from Residential to the Industrial classification. The property in total is 22.967 acres of land. They are dealing with an area of revision that is on the western portion of the property and that is 13.967 acres. The remaining 9 acres already carries with it that Industrial land use classification. In looking at this request, they go to the Comprehensive Plan which discusses approaches to both the Residential High Density and what they would call Employment Centers and Industrial Land Uses in the City. Information excerpted from the Comprehensive Plan is in the DAC Report for your reference. Adjacent to this property is actually part of the Enterprise Business Park; so, it has kind of industrial and office type neighbors. To the north and west, there are residential areas in the form of single Excerpt of Planning Commission Meeting of February 19, 2019 Page 1 of 2

family detached houses and the Woodmill Apartment Complex. This evening, the Planning Staff is recommending that the Commission approve the request for change in the land use classification. As you all know, Staff is currently working on preparing the 2019 Comprehensive Plan and as early as August 2018 they released a Preliminary Land Development Plan Map for that new document. Specifically, for this area, Staff was making the recommendation to take that entire parcel to that Industrial land use classification. The property owner wanted to be moving a little quicker than we are through the Comprehensive Plan process; so, that’s why they went ahead and made the Comprehensive Plan Amendment request. While Staff recognizes that both affordable housing and economic development are needed in the City and they are both issues that the Comprehensive Plan strives to address, they feel that this site is better suited for Industrial development. It is one of the few shovel ready Industrial sites in the City since it’s in an Industrial Park that has the infrastructure in place, so we do support the land use classification change to Industrial. The other participating DAC members have no objection to this proposed amendment to the Comprehensive Plan. She will note that this is associated with a Rezoning application that they will consider next. Ms. Yencer stated that she was here tonight on behalf of the owner, H & M Properties LLC. She is here to answer any questions that the Commission might have in reference to their applications or the Comprehensive Plan. Mr. Tolbert opened a public hearing. Ms. Charley Roberson – 1242 South Farmview Drive Dover DE 19904 Ms. Robinson stated that there is an area behind the houses that has a wooded parcel that has foxes and sometimes deer. She would like to know what is going to happen with that area. Responding to Ms. Robinson, Mrs. Melson-Williams stated that she believes that Ms. Robinson is talking about the area along the north property line of the subject site. That is not part of this application and it would remain as is. She believes that there is some City owned land, but she is not sure if it is or not. She believes that the wooded area is not found on this parcel, it’s something that separates this parcel from the residential area. One thing of note, in order to develop this property, there will be additional review processes involving a Site Development Plan that will look more closely to what it is adjacent to and what types of buffering may be required. This is a first step towards making a change in rezoning the property. She doesn’t believe that it affects that wooded area that Ms. Robinson is referring to. (Ms. Robinson had no further statements or questions.) Mr. Tolbert closed the public hearing. Mr. Adams moved to recommend approval to City Council for MI-19-02 Comprehensive Plan Amendment 2019 for land use classification change from Residential High Density to Industrial and Public Utilities as submitted, seconded by Dr. Jones and the motion was carried 8-0 by roll call vote.

Z-19-01 Lands of H&M Properties LLC Report to City Council: Planning Commission Recommendation of February 19, 2019 Page 2 Ordinance Number: 2019-05 Planning Commission Recommendation: The Application of Rezoning request was represented by a representative of the property ownership entity. Following a public hearing on February 19, 2019 where no members of the public spoke regarding the rezoning application, the Planning Commission moved by vote of 8-0 to recommend in favor of the proposed rezoning from RG-2 to IPM. (Draft Meeting Minutes attached.) Overview: This Rezoning Application is for Lands of H & M Properties, LLC which consist of 22.967 acres on the northwest side of Commerce Way. The property currently has two zoning classifications: the western 13.967 areas is zoned RG-2 (General Residence Zone) and the eastern remaining 9 acres is zoned IPM (Industrial Park Manufacturing Zone). The proposed zoning is IPM (Industrial Park Manufacturing Zone) for the entire parcel. This Rezoning Request is associated with request MI-19-02 for Comprehensive Plan Amendment as a Land Use Classification revision to Map 12-1. Existing Property: The subject property area of 22.967 acres is currently a vacant lot and is part of the Enterprise Business Park. It is the largest vacant tract remaining undeveloped in the Business Park. The applicant is seeking rezoning to IPM (Industrial Park Manufacturing Zone) to allow for future development of the property. The development of the site will be subject to a separate application submission. Surrounding Land Uses: This property is located on Commerce Way in the Enterprise Business Park and to the north of West North Street. Other land surrounding the subject parcel within the Business Park is zoned IPM (Industrial Park Manufacturing Zone). Its immediate neighbors on Commerce Way include the Capital School District Office & Maintenance Facility and the facility of Peoples Place Properties, Inc. North and west of the subject property are lands zoned RG-2 (General Residence Zone). To the north are single-family detached residences on Farmview Drive in the Woodmill Subdivision, and to the west are the Woodmill Apartments. Previous Applications A Comprehensive Plan Amendment & Rezoning Application Z-06-06 for this site was filed in 2006; however, the applicant withdrew the application after receiving State comments through the PLUS process and comments from the City’s Planning Office that were not supportive of rezoning the entire property to residential use. The application was withdrawn prior to any formal review. In 2008, the property was again the subject of Comprehensive Plan Amendment to the Land Development Plan Map of the 2003 Comprehensive Plan Update which was approved to change the land use category classification from Industrial and Public Utilities to High Density

Z-19-01 Lands of H&M Properties LLC Report to City Council: Planning Commission Recommendation of February 19, 2019 Page 3 Residential for the western portion (13.967 acres) of the property. The associated Rezoning Application Z-08-03 Lands of H&M Properties then rezoned the western portion from IPM to RG-2. The 2008 Application only sought to change the land use and rezone only a portion of the parcel rather than the entire parcel. With the successful rezoning, a Conditional Use Site Plan Application C-08-14 Woodmill Apartments Complex (Expansion) was filed and then reviewed by Planning Commission in February 2009. The Plan proposed development of the residentially zoned area with six apartment buildings for a total of 216 dwelling units. The plan included a Minor Subdivision Plan to subdivide the property into two (2) parcels of land. The Plan expired in 2011 with no action to commerce construction or to subdivide the property. Comprehensive Plan: The 2008 Comprehensive Plan depicts the subject area of 13.967 acres as Residential High Density with balance of the property as Industrial and Public Utilities as the land use classifications on Map 12-1: Land Development Plan Map. Under MI-19-02, there is a request to change the land use classification to Industrial and Public Utilities for the entire parcel. If the Comprehensive Plan Amendment is approved, then the requested zoning of IPM would be consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. If the Comprehensive Plan Amendment is not approved, the zoning requested would not be consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. For the land use classification of Industrial and Public Utilities, the 2008 Comprehensive Plan allows the zoning districts of C-3, M, IPM, and IPM-2. Request for IPM (Industrial Park Manufacturing) Zoning The following description of the IPM zoning district is provided from Article 3 §20 of the Zoning Ordinance. Section 20. - Industrial park manufacturing zone (IPM). 20.1 Uses permitted.

Recommendation of the Planning Staff: Staff supports the rezoning request from RG-2 to IPM, provided that the companion Comprehensive Plan Amendment is first approved then making the rezoning request compliant with the Comprehensive Plan. This rezoning would place the entire property in the same zoning classification and return the property to the original zoning classification of IPM under which the majority of the Enterprise Business Park has been developed. It is noted that during the Site Development Plan review process there are other provisions of the Zoning Ordinance that will address buffering of the property development from its residential neighbors. Recommendation of the Planning Commission: At the Planning Commission Meeting of February 19, 2019, the application was represented by Ms. Cynthia Yencer of R & R Commercial Realty on behalf of the property owner H&M Properties, LLC. During the Public Hearing, no members of the public spoke regarding the proposed rezoning application. The Planning Commission recommended in favor of the Rezoning from RG-2 to IPM for the property on Commerce Way as proposed (8-0) with one member absent.

CITY OF DOVER PLANNING COMMISSION February 19, 2019 Excerpt from Meeting Minutes – Draft The Regular Meeting of the City of Dover Planning Commission was held on Tuesday, February 19, 2019 at 7:00 PM in the City Hall Council Chambers with Chairman Mr. Tolbert presiding. Members present were Mr. Adams, Mr. Roach, Ms. Edwards, Mr. Holt, Mr. Baldwin, Dr. Jones, Ms. Maucher and Mr. Tolbert. Mrs. Welsh was absent. Staff members present were Mr. Dave Hugg, Mrs. Dawn Melson-Williams, Mr. Jason Lyon, Mr. Julian Swierczek, Mr. Eddie Diaz and Mrs. Kristen Mullaney. Z-19-01 Lands of H & M Properties, LLC on Commerce Way – Public Hearing and Review for Recommendation to City Council for a rezoning application for a 22.967 acre +/- parcel. The property is zoned RG-2 (General Residence Zone) and IPM (Industrial Park Manufacturing Zone). The proposed zoning is IPM (Industrial Park Manufacturing Zone) for the entire parcel. The property is located on the northwest side of Commerce Way and north of West North Street and is part of the Enterprise Business Park. The owners of record are H & M Properties, LLC. Property Address: 22.967 Acres on Commerce Way. Tax Parcel: ED-05-076.10-02-07.03-000. Council District 1. Ordinance #2019-05. Associated with request MI-19-02 for Comprehensive Plan Amendment as a Land Use Classification revision to Map 12-1. Representatives: Ms. Cynthia Yencer, R & R Commercial Realty Mrs. Melson-Williams stated that this is for the same property and this is the second step in the process; this is a request for Rezoning. The property is located on the north side of Commerce Way. As mentioned before, the entire parcel consists of 22.967 acres and the area of this Rezoning request is 13.967 acres. Currently, that area is zoned RG-2 (General Residence Zone) and the balance of the property is zoned IPM (Industrial Park Manufacturing Zone). The applicant is requesting that the area that is currently RG-2 (General Residence Zone) be rezoned to IPM (Industrial Park Manufacturing Zone) which would make the entire parcel in the IPM (Industrial Park Manufacturing Zone) district. As mentioned before, with any Rezoning they have to look to the Comprehensive Plan and with the Commission’s recommendation of approval of the Comprehensive Plan Amendment that sets up the appropriate land use classification for them to consider rezoning of the western portion of this property to the IPM (Industrial Park Manufacturing Zone) zoning district. The DAC Report does note some previous history related to zoning and previous development efforts that were focused on this property. However, the most recent Development Plan from 2008 has long since expired and that project was to develop that residential side in that format. That equitable owner never followed through and the current property owner is seeking to take his entire property to that IPM (Industrial Park Manufacturing Zone) to set it up for future development activity. The Planning Staff in regards to this Rezoning request is recommending for approval of the Rezoning from RG-2 (General Residence Zone) to IPM (Industrial Park Manufacturing Zone) noting that the companion Comprehensive Plan Amendment will have to be first approved Excerpt of Planning Commission Meeting of February 19, 2019 Page 1 of 2

before the zoning request can be considered compliant with the Comprehensive Plan. The Rezoning, Staff finds, would place the entire property in the same zoning district and actually return it to what was its original zoning classification of IPM (Industrial Park Manufacturing Zone). The Development Advisory Committee’s other participating agencies have no objections to the proposed Rezoning. Again, they provide some advisory comments for future development activities should that occur on this property. It is noted that any development would require at least some type of Site Plan application which would be subject to its own Public Hearing process. Ms. Yencer stated that they have no comments at this time, and they accept all of the DAC comments. Mr. Tolbert opened a public hearing and after seeing no one wishing to speak, closed the public hearing. Ms. Edwards moved to recommend approval to City Council for Z-19-01 Lands of H&M Properties LLC from RG-2 (General Residence Zone) to IPM (Industrial Park Manufacturing Zone), seconded by Mr. Holt and the motion was carried 8-0 by roll call vote. Ms. Edwards voting yes. Mr. Holt voting yes. Mr. Baldwin voting yes. Dr. Jones voting yes. Ms. Maucher voting yes. Mr. Adams voting yes. Mr. Roach voting yes. Mr. Tolbert voting yes.

Z-19-02 Lands of Wesley College Report to City Council: Planning Commission Recommendation of February 19, 2019 Page 2 Planning Commission Recommendation: The Application of Rezoning was represented by the design professional for the property owner. Following a public hearing on February 19, 2019 where no members of the public spoke regarding the rezoning application, the Planning Commission moved by vote of 8-0 to recommend in favor of the proposed rezoning from RGO/H to IO/H. (Draft Meeting Minutes attached.) Overview: The rezoning application consists of two parcels of land totaling 0.81 +/- acres located on the east side of South State Street, north of East Reed Street. The property is zoned RG-O (General Residence and Office Zone) and is subject to the H (Historic District Zone). The proposed zoning is IO (Institutional and Office Zone) while retaining the H (Historic District Zone). The owner of record is Wesley College, Inc. Property Address: 45 South State Street. Tax Parcels: ED-05-077.05-04-33.00-000 and ED-05-077.05-04-36.00-000. Existing Property: The area of the subject properties consists of two parcels of land. The property on the west has frontage along South State Street and contains the building that previously housed the City of Dover Public Library. The parcel to the east has frontage along South American Avenue on its east side and contains a parking lot, as well as two carriage-house structures. The applicant is seeking rezoning to IO (Institutional and Office Zone) to allow for future utilization of the building by Wesley College, as flexible classrooms and meeting spaces for their Occupational Therapy program. The redevelopment of the site will be subject to a separate application/ permit submissions. Surrounding Land Uses Surrounding the two parcels are several different zoning types and land uses. Immediately to the south is 5 East Reed Street, zoned C-2A (Limited Central Commercial Zone) which is an office building owned by the City of Dover. To the east, across South American Avenue and Kings Highway are the offices of DNREC, on a parcel which is also zoned IO. Across South American Avenue directly to the east is the triangular parcel wherein the Governor’s Café is located, zoned RG-O (General Residence and Office Zone). The remainder of properties located nearby on South State Street are predominately zoned RG-O, and there are several uses as offices, residential dwellings, the Presbyterian Church, and The Wesley President’s House. Comprehensive Plan: In the 2008 Comprehensive Plan, the Land Development Plan (Map 12-1 as amended, dated March 2016) recommends that this property be used for Mixed Use. The following is an excerpt from the Comprehensive Plan regarding Mixed-Use in the downtown area (page 148): Downtown Dover Downtown Dover is the City’s primary mixed use area. Revitalization of the Downtown will continue the mixed use pattern of land uses in the area. The historic City center -- clustered around The Dover Green -- dates back as early as the 1700s. It expands to also

Z-19-02 Lands of Wesley College Report to City Council: Planning Commission Recommendation of February 19, 2019 Page 3 include the traditional City pattern of grid streets, which developed during the 19th and early 20th centuries. As a result of its earlier development, Downtown Dover like many other historic cities includes a variety of intermingled land uses. The Downtown area is bounded by Wesley College on the north, the railroad tracks on the west, Bayhealth-Kent General Hospital on the south, and St. Jones River on the east. It includes residential, commercial, office, cultural and institutional uses. Assumptions: Downtown Dover 1. Downtown Dover is the traditional and symbolic center of the community and is vitally important to the overall image and identity of the City. 2. As the State complex and other businesses and services make Downtown the largest area of employment in the City, Downtown Dover is vital to the economy. It is important to preserve the area as a safe, convenient and aesthetically pleasing environment. 3. Downtown provides a unique residential environment near commercial, cultural, education and employment resources. There is a wide variety of housing types Downtown. 4. Downtown provides a unique and affordable commercial environment where locally owned businesses reflect the small town nature of the community. 5. The age of the buildings and infrastructure in the downtown area requires special attention and incentives to assist in continual use and revitalization activities. 6. Downtown lacks the vibrancy of years gone by, and revitalization will hinge on mixed land uses and developing a commercial niche. Goal: Downtown Dover Enhance the role of Downtown Dover as a major employment, residential and commercial center as well as the symbolic and cultural heart of the community, and recognize its unique heritage and historic resources. Provide for mixed use development allowing greatest variation of uses. Policies: Downtown Dover • Master plan the Loockerman Street corridor • Enhance the Downtown area through economic development and historic preservation programs. • Continue to support the preservation of buildings and infrastructure through public investments, property maintenance enforcement, housing grants and financial incentives. • Promote zoning districts and regulations that support the traditional mixed-use nature of the Downtown area. • Support revitalization of Downtown neighborhoods The rezoning request is also consistent with the Land Use Classification of Mixed Use. Table 12- 1: Land Use and Zoning Matrix specifies that the following zones are compatible with this land use classification.

No. 2014-08, 7-14-2014 ; Ord. No. 2017-13 , 12-11-2017 Recommendation of the Planning Staff: Staff recommends that the rezoning be granted to IO with H as requested, as the proposed zoning is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan for the Mixed Use land use classification. Wesley College is a vital asset for the City of Dover’s Downtown area; and the intended project that this rezoning would allow represents a significant investment. It further promotes the idea of a mixed-use downtown in that there are several office, residential, and institutional uses within the vicinity. The IO zoning district clearly permits institutional uses such as colleges, and the applicant is keeping the H (Historic District zone) designation. Recommendation of the Planning Commission: At the Planning Commission Meeting of February 19, 2019, the application was represented by Mr. Jonathon Street of Becker Morgan Group on behalf of the property owner Wesley College, Inc. During the Public Hearing, no members of the public spoke regarding the proposed rezoning application. The Planning Commission recommended in favor of the Rezoning from RGO with H to IO with H for the two properties as proposed (8-0) with one member absent.

The properties are zoned RG-O (General Residence and Office Zone) and are subject to the H (Historic District Zone).

The properties are located between South State Street and South American Avenue, north of Reed Street. The owner of record is Wesley College, Inc. Parcel 1 is 0.32 +/- acres and is addressed as 45 South State Street. Parcel 2 is 0.49 +/- acres and has frontage on South American Avenue. Tax Parcels: ED-05-077.05-04-33.00-000 and ED-05- 077.05-04-36.00-000. Council District 2. Ordinance #2019-06. Representative: Mr. Jonathan Street, Becker Morgan Group Mr. Swierczek stated that this application is a review of a Rezoning application consisting of two parcels of land totaling 0.81 acres located on the east side of South State Street north of East Reed Street. The property is zoned RGO (General Residence & Office Zone) and is currently subject to H (Historic District). The proposed zoning is to IO (Institutional & Office Zone) while retaining the H (Historic District Overlay Zone). The property on the west has frontage along South State Street and contains the building that previously housed the City of Dover’s Library. The parcel to the east has frontage along South American Avenue on its east side and contains a parking lot as well as two carriage house structures. The applicant is seeking Rezoning to IO (Institutional & Office Zone) to allow for the future utilization of the building by Wesley College as a flexible classroom and meeting space for their Occupational Therapy Program. The redevelopment of the site will be subject to a separate application and permit submission. This is only for the Rezoning. The 2008 Comprehensive Plan recommends that the property be used for a mixed-use zone type and the proposed zoning of IO (Institutional & Office Zone) is listed as compatible with the Mixed Use classification. Furthermore, the IO (Institutional & Office Zone) lists public institutions including schools, colleges and universities as permitted uses. Staff therefore recommends that the Rezoning be granted to IO (Institutional & Office Zone) with the H (Historic District Overlay Zone) to remain as requested as the proposed zoning is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan for the Mixed-Use land use. Wesley College is a vital asset for the City of Dover’s Downtown area and the intended project that this Rezoning would Excerpt of Planning Commission Meeting of February 19, 2019 Page 1 of 2

allow represents a significant investment. It further promotes the idea of a mixed-use Downtown and there are several office, residential and institutional uses within the immediate vicinity. The IO (Institutional & Office Zone) clearly permits institutional uses such as colleges and the applicant is keeping the H (Historic District Zone) designation. Mr. Street stated that the application is simply a Rezoning of the two parcels. One of them contains the old Dover Public Library and the other one is to the rear of the Library itself. Wesley acquired these properties from the City, and they are in the middle of the planning stage for redevelopment of the interior of the building itself and the classroom space. These parcels will eventually be consolidated together to make up one parcel to utilize the building itself as classroom space and the parking lot for the College itself. They are in receipt of the Staff Reports and they take no exception to them. They have no issues or questions with the Report itself. Mr. Tolbert opened a public hearing and after seeing no one wishing to speak, closed the public hearing. Dr. Jones moved to recommend approval to City Council for Z-19-02 – Lands of Wesley College at 45 South State Street to change the zoning from RGO (General Residence & Office Zone) to IO (Institutional & Office Zone) with the H (Historic District Overlay Zone), seconded by Ms. Maucher and the motion was carried 8-0 by roll call vote. Dr. Jones voting yes. Ms. Maucher voting yes. Mr. Adams voting yes. Mr. Roach voting yes and hopes to see that building revitalized as soon as possible. Ms. Edwards voting yes. Mr. Holt voting yes. Mr. Baldwin voting yes. Mr. Tolbert voting yes; the old Library building will be very well used by the College. Excerpt of Planning Commission Meeting of February 19, 2019 Page 2 of 2

(Draft Meeting Minutes attached.)

Z-19-03 Lands of Linda and Paul Schreppler Report to City Council: Planning Commission Recommendation of February 19, 2019 Page 2 Overview: This rezoning application consists of one parcel of land totaling 1.67 +/- acres located on the north side of Roosevelt Avenue, east of South DuPont Highway. The property is zoned R-8 (One Family Residence Zone). The proposed zoning is RG-2 (General Residence Zone). The owners of record are Linda and Paul Schreppler and the equitable owner is Miller Investments, LLC. Property Address: 157 Roosevelt Avenue. Tax Parcel: ED-05-077.18-02-75.00-000. Existing Property: The subject property area consists of one vacant parcel of land. The property borders the St. Jones River on the east, and consequently the eastern end of the parcel is within the Special Flood Hazard Area. This area of the parcel also has a significant wetland presence, and it may have enough trees for a significant woodland presence. The western end of the parcel is grass and is large enough for some development on the property to occur. The applicant is seeking rezoning to RG-2 (General Residence Zone) to allow for future development of the property with a 22-unit Garden Apartment Building. The redevelopment of the site will be subject to a separate application submission. Surrounding Land Uses Completely bordering the subject property on its west and north sides is an irregularly shaped parcel which is the site of the Riverside Mobile Home Park. This parcel is split-zoned between a 0.61-acre area zoned R-8 at its western end and a 4.18-acre area zoned MH (Manufactured Housing Zone) covering the rest of the parcel. The subject property is bordered on the west and north only by the MH-zoned section. As previously mentioned, the subject property is also bordered on the east by the St. Jones River. Immediately across Roosevelt Avenue to the south is the site of the Riverchase Apartments, zoned RG-2. A variety of other uses are located nearby on Roosevelt Avenue. These include a property zoned C-1 (Neighborhood Commercial Zone), properties zoned C-4 (Highway Commercial Zone) including a carwash, a multi-tenant building, and an automobile dealership fronting on South DuPont Highway, and multiple properties zoned R-8 containing one-family dwellings. One parcel zoned R-8 is the site of the Kent County Theater Guild. Three properties containing two one-family dwellings and two multi-family dwellings were recently rezoned to RG-2 (see below) and are proposed for redevelopment. Previous Applications The applicant previously requested rezoning of three nearby parcels on this street to allow future construction of another 18-unit Garden Apartment Building (Application #Z-18-01). These three parcels are addressed as 127, 129, 133, and 135 Roosevelt Avenue; 127 and 129 Roosevelt Avenue are two one-family dwellings each with their own parcel, while 133 and 135 Roosevelt Avenue are two multi-family dwellings sharing a parcel with eight dwelling units between them. The parcels would be consolidated, and the existing buildings demolished, to allow construction of the proposed new apartment building. The Planning Commission recommended the properties be rezoned from R-8 to RG-2 on September 17, 2018, and City Council approved the rezoning as Ordinance #2018-08 on October 8, 2018. The project subsequently received variances from the

Z-19-03 Lands of Linda and Paul Schreppler Report to City Council: Planning Commission Recommendation of February 19, 2019 Page 3 Board of Adjustment related to lot coverage, accessory building size, and parking near the wall of a multi-family dwelling on January 23, 2019 (Application #V-18-11). This project has yet to return to the Planning Commission for Site Development Plan review, a step which must eventually be taken by the 157 Roosevelt Avenue apartment project as well. Comprehensive Plan: In the 2008 Comprehensive Plan, the Land Development Plan (Map 12-1 as amended, dated March 2012) recommends that this property be used for Residential Medium Density. The following is an excerpt from the Comprehensive Plan (page 146-147): Recommendation for Medium Density Residential Medium density residential land uses involve a maximum gross density of eight (8) dwelling units per acre. This type of development may include single family houses on smaller lots, duplexes, townhouses, and some apartments. Some mobile home park developments would also be considered medium density. Medium density residential uses are permitted in the following zoning districts: R-8 (One Family Residence), R-7 (One Family Residence), RM-1 (Medium Density Residence), RM-2 (Medium Density Residence), RG-1 (General Residence), RG-2 (General Residence), RG-3 (Group Housing), and MHP (Mobile Home Park). The Land Development Plan recommends that medium density residential uses be permitted in near existing and planned service and employment centers and in locations well supported by transportation infrastructure and mass transit services. The rezoning request is also consistent with the Land Use Classification of Residential Medium Density. Table 12-1: Land Use and Zoning Matrix specifies that the following zones are compatible with this land use classification. R-8 (One Family Residential) R-7 (One Family Residential) RM-1 (Medium Density Residential) RM-2 (Medium Density Residential) RG-1 (General Residential) RG-2 (General Residential) RG-3 (Group Housing) RGO (General Residence and Office) C-1 (Neighborhood Commercial) MHP (Mobile Home Park) *now known as MH (Manufactured Housing Zone) Request for RG-2 (General Residence Zone) The types of permitted uses in the RG-2 Zone are given Article 3 §2 of the Zoning Ordinance. The permitted uses include the following: • Article 3, Section 2. - General residence zones (RG-1 and RG-2). 2.1 Uses permitted.

(Ord. of 7-12-1993, § 14; Ord. of 4-22-1996; Ord. of 2-12-2001 Ord. of 1-13-2003; Ord. of 9-11-2006; Ord. of 5-29-2007; Ord. No. 2011-29, 1-9-2012; Ord. No. 2014-05, 5-27-2014 ; Ord. No. 2015-13, 10-12-2015 ) Recommendation of the Planning Staff: Staff recommends that the rezoning to RG-2 be granted as requested, as the proposed zoning is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan for the Residential Medium Density land use classification. Even in the RG-2 zone, the uses of the R-8 continue to be allowed. In the RG-2 zone, the additional dwelling types of garden apartments are permitted uses and duplexes, townhouses, and multiple dwellings are conditional uses. The bulk standards of RG-2 and other development requirements will limit the density (number of units per area). This segment of Roosevelt Avenue is a mix of types of housing options. Staff believes the site can be successfully developed without major disturbance of the natural features on site. Recommendation of the Planning Commission: At the Planning Commission Meeting of February 19, 2019, the application was represented by Mr. David Miller of Miller Investments, LLC the property owner. During the Public Hearing, seven members of the public spoke regarding the proposed rezoning application: four in favor of rezoning and three against rezoning. One speaker representing the Riverside Mobile Home Park who spoke in opposition of the rezoning also identified seven residents of the Park that were in the audience. A Letter of Opposition dated February 12, 2019 was also received. The Planning Commission recommended in favor of the Rezoning from R-8 to RG-2 for the property on Roosevelt Avenue as proposed (7-0) with one member absent from the vote and an additional member absent from the meeting. The Planning Commission also encouraged a continued discussion between the property owner (Miller Investments, LLC) and the adjacent Riverside Mobile Home Park owner/representatives regarding items of concern voiced during the public testimony and Letter. See also the included excerpt of the DRAFT Meeting Minutes of the February 19, 2019 Planning Commission meeting. The comments received from the other member agencies of the Development Advisory Committee (D.A.C.) are also provided.

CITY OF DOVER PLANNING COMMISSION February 19, 2019 Excerpt from Meeting Minutes – Draft The Regular Meeting of the City of Dover Planning Commission was held on Tuesday, February 19, 2019 at 7:00 PM in the City Hall Council Chambers with Chairman Mr. Tolbert presiding. Members present were Mr. Adams, Mr. Roach, Ms. Edwards, Mr. Holt, Mr. Baldwin, Dr. Jones, Ms. Maucher and Mr. Tolbert. Mrs. Welsh was absent. Staff members present were Mr. Dave Hugg, Mrs. Dawn Melson-Williams, Mr. Jason Lyon, Mr. Julian Swierczek, Mr. Eddie Diaz and Mrs. Kristen Mullaney. Z-19-03 Lands of Schreppler at 157 Roosevelt Avenue – Public Hearing and Review for Recommendation to City Council for a rezoning application for 1.641 acres +/- parcel of land located at 157 Roosevelt Avenue. The property is zoned R-8 (One-Family Residence Zone). The proposed zoning is RG-2 (General Residence Zone). The property is located on the north side of the eastern end of Roosevelt Avenue. The owners of record are Paul and Linda Schreppler. The equitable owner is Miller Investments LLC c/o David Miller. Property Address: 157 Roosevelt Avenue. Tax Parcel: ED-05-077.18-02-75.00-000. Council District 2. Ordinance #2019-07. Representative: Mr. David Miller, Miller Investments LLC Mr. Diaz stated that this application is at the east end of Roosevelt Avenue. This parcel is bordered on the east by the St. Jones River and on the north and on the west is bordered by lands of the Riverside Mobile Home Park. Across the street are the River Chase Apartments and additional nearby uses in this block of Roosevelt Avenue include a number of one family residences, the Kent County Theater Guild and towards the west end, a number of commercial uses that front on North DuPont Highway. The parcel is 1.67 acres in size. It is currently zoned R-8 (One Family Residence Zone). The proposed zoning is RG-2 (General Residence Zone). The RG-2 (General Residence Zone) allows a number of additional kinds of residential uses beyond one family dwellings; particularly, it allows garden apartment buildings. This would be a fit for the applicant’s stated intention to develop a 22-unit apartment building on the site. The applicant did submit a preliminary plan of what that apartment building (layout) would look like; however, because this is the application for the Rezoning, your motion tonight would not be approval or denial of the specific design that you see on the plan. It would have to come back to the Planning Commission for a regular Site Development Plan approval. Staff is recommending that the Planning Commission and the City Council approve the Rezoning. Staff has noted that this area has trending away from its original historical use as one family dwellings towards more dense residential uses with the existing River Chase Apartments and the Riverside Mobile Home Park being the prior uses that are fitting that trending. The applicant also came in October 2018 to request Rezoning of another property on this street that also went from R-8 (One Family Residence Zone) to RG-2 (General Residence Zone) that were eighteen apartment units. Mr. Holt stated that they received a letter tonight with an opposition from Riverside Mobile Home Park regarding a sewer easement that they have. How is that going to affect the property? Excerpt of Planning Commission Meeting of February 19, 2019 Page 1 of 6

They are saying that it would limit their use of moving mobile homes in and out of the property. Responding to Mr. Holt, Mr. Diaz stated that there is a sanitary sewer easement between the two parallel dotted lines shown on the plan that run diagonally across the property. This letter actually notes two different reasons. The sanitary sewer easement refers to the land set aside for the sewer line that runs underneath the ground within that area. Ultimately, in order for this property to be rebuilt, that property would have to be receptive somehow. It would either have to not be disturbed during construction or it would have to be redirected around development. The other easement that is noted in this letter is a claimed easement by necessity. That is different from the sanitary sewer easement; it’s more of an access easement. That is what the owner of the Mobile Home Park is claiming that they use it to basically take homes when they are coming in and out of the park across the grass because the normal driveway for Park is too narrow and has too great an angle for the homes to brought down it. One thing that you should note is that the sanitary sewer easement is a recorded easement while the “easement by necessity” means in legal terms is that they don’t have something written down but because they have been using it unchallenged then they basically have an established right to it. But they would need to work with a legal team to actually transform that into a formal easement. At the moment, it is not recognized the way the sanitary sewer easement is. Mr. Adams questioned the width of the sanitary sewer easement. Responding to Mr. Adams, Mr. Miller stated that the current written easement is a ten-foot easement access for the maintenance of the sewer. It is drawn out as twenty feet on the plan because typically they are twenty feet but this one was written back in the 1960’s and is only a ten foot easement currently. Mr. Adams stated that given the fact that the Code has changed, does that change the easement at all or is the recorded easement of ten feet as noted by the equitable owner the amount of easement that we should be thinking about when we are thinking about this easement that’s in place? Responding to Mr. Adams, Mr. Diaz stated that they would be working with a ten foot easement because that would be in the property’s legal description. It would basically be considered non-conforming to current Code. Mr. Miller stated that in reference to that ten foot easement, he would have no problem making it twenty feet. He has been working with the owner of the mobile home park trying to accommodate the fact that this development would block her usage of getting those homes in and out of the property. At this point, she has not been willing to accept his negotiation to move everything over and give her access to the property on the right side. He is more than willing to make that happen as well. However, the recommendations that Staff have made and the work that we have done with them to make this project viable to bring additional housing to this community is because we all know housing is very limited and tight in this community. So, we would just ask that you would approve the zone change for them. Ms. Maucher questioned how long the access has been used by the Mobile Home Park? Responding to Ms. Maucher, Mr. Miller stated that because he is only the equitable owner, he doesn’t know the answer to that. He knows that there has been a claim and he knows that there is an agreement between the current owner and the existing owner that she was not allowed to use that to move the homes in and out because from what he understands, they damaged the property one time doing it. Regardless, it is a sewer easement access for maintenance of the sewer. It is Excerpt of Planning Commission Meeting of February 19, 2019 Page 2 of 6

not an access road or an access to allow them to move property from one place to another. Mr. Tolbert opened a public hearing. Ms. Nicole Faries – Baird, Mandalas and Brockstedt for 151 E Roosevelt Avenue Dover DE 19901 Ms. Faries stated that she represents Riverside Mobile Home Park. Her client is opposed to this application because it does have two easements across this property. Mr. Diaz is correct; the other easement, the easement by necessity, which they would suggest was obtained by adverse possession. It was stated on the record that it was used without permission; therefore, it’s adverse possession. It has been used for over forty years and they will be filing legal action to get that legally recognized because it is not in writing. The important part for her client is that they have old mobile homes in the mobile home community and when those homes deteriorate, they have to move those homes out and move new homes in. They have been using the sewer easement area as also a transgressional easement to basically move homes in and out of the community because they can’t get through their curved entrance. The other concern that they have is that there have been several other lots on East Roosevelt Avenue that were converted to Garden Apartments and the traffic in that area is becoming burdensome. There was testimony from the residents. The traffic backs up at the light because there is a car wash in the neighborhood as well. So to add another apartment complex on top of the mobile home community and the other apartment complexes in the area are just greatly going to inhibit this roadway. There are residents of Riverside Mobile Home Park here tonight in opposition. (7 Residents were indicated in the audience by a show of hands.) Mr. Roach stated that the applicant made a statement earlier that he was trying to work with the owner in regards to creating a different way to be able to have the mobile homes still be able to be moved. Was that a conversation that you are aware of or is that something that the owner is not willing to negotiate in regards to access for the mobile homes to be able to be taken in and out? Responding to Mr. Roach, Ms. Faries stated that she has not had any conversations with Mr. Miller. She has reached out to his representative to say that she is representing the property owner but she has not received any communications. If they could have more discussions after tonight, she definitely welcomes that. Mr. Adams stated that he would be interested to understand from either Miller Investments or from the property owner if that point is in dispute at all. Is it your understanding that this property has been used for forty years in the way that it’s been represented by counsel? Responding to Mr. Adams, Mr. Miller stated that when he first approached the seller which is the owner of the mobile home park in reference to actually purchasing the park as well, he had paid to have a survey done on that property. When they did the survey, she had additional encroachments. The driveway encroaches and she has some light poles, asphalt and dumpsters that encroach upon this property. In discussions with the property owner, she said she has no problem moving all of that stuff off of your (his) property. He has never been told by her that this is something that they have used for years. All that he heard was one story that they moved a home one time, damaged the property and the owner got upset. He hasn’t seen the letter. He has never been contacted by anybody. He doesn’t have a counsel; he works for himself. This is completely out of the blue tonight for him. Excerpt of Planning Commission Meeting of February 19, 2019 Page 3 of 6

Ms. Faries stated that she doesn’t think that the parties agree over the easement and she thinks that’s why legal action would be necessary. Mr. Miller mentioned speaking to the seller. She wants to make it clear because some residents have been confused about this; Riverside Mobile Home Park is not the seller and is not selling. (Ms. Faries introduced Ms. Karen Kemp, Property Manager of Riverside Mobile Home Park.) She asked Ms. Kemp how long she has worked for this mobile home park. Responding to Ms. Faries, Ms. Kemp stated approximately six years. Ms. Faries questioned if during that time they have moved homes in and out of the community? Responding to Ms. Faries, Ms. Kemp stated yes they have. Ms. Faries asked Ms. Kemp to describe what path they have used. Responding to Ms. Faries, Ms. Kemp stated that they try to stay as close to their driveway as they can. The back tires do usually hit the property that we are talking about this evening as its comes around the turn. They have on a couple of occasions came across the field when they couldn’t make access around the driveway and any time damage was done they did fix that damage. They brought in dirt; they seeded it and fixed it. Mr. Tolbert stated that he would like to remind everyone that they are only dealing with a Rezoning tonight, not any other issue regarding this application. They will have to come back before the Planning Commission again if there is anything else. Ms. Maucher questioned how the resolution of the legal issue would affect the project if you were to have to give up that easement? How would that impact your plan for the project? Responding to Ms. Maucher, Mr. Miller stated that whenever you have an easement for a sewer line maintenance you have to leave it accessible. He can’t build a building on it so it would always be accessible to her by law because it has to be. What he proposed to her is to take the driveway that she has on the left hand side and slide everything over and give her a complete driveway that comes all the way through so she can just come right off of the street. They spoke to Mr. Diaz about this and they are aware that they would have to go to the Board of Adjustment to get additional waivers for some of the compliance of the Code at that point but this is something that he has had his architects drop an additional drawing for. They have sent it to the owner and have had conversations with her. The only person that she is aware of that has any legal rights to this property is the owner. As the Chairman said this is in reference to zoning and he thinks that it fits within the parameters and the desires of the City and brings more housing. Affordable housing comes from supply and he is trying to create a supply so they can maybe get the rents a little bit cheaper. He is a renter here; he is a move in from another state and rent is surprisingly expensive for this area. Ms. Faries stated that their opposition is with respect to the Rezoning. This is under the Comprehensive Plan as a single family dwelling and they think that should be respected even though it’s been changed elsewhere on the street because of the traffic impact it’s had and the particular impact that it will have on the community right behind it. Mr. Beau Zebley – Olson Realty Mr. Zebley stated that this is within the Comprehensive Plan for more dense residential and the Excerpt of Planning Commission Meeting of February 19, 2019 Page 4 of 6

issue with traffic is not with the fifty-five apartments at the end of the street or their project of eighteen apartments or the Theatre Guild. The issue on the street is the car wash. That is why traffic is backed up all the way down Roosevelt Avenue at times. Having sixteen to twenty additional units is not going to affect what happens at the car wash whether or not they redevelop this property or not. City Council did vote in favor to rezone the other property that they have located on Roosevelt Avenue. Mrs. Nina Lazzeroni – 146 Roosevelt Avenue Dover DE 19901 Mrs. Lazzeroni stated that 146 Roosevelt Avenue is her primary residence. They would like to say that they are in favor of this project. They are hoping that it will improve the look of their street and their small part of the community and perhaps even raise the property values to the homeowners. Most of them have been living there for a long time and they have vested interests. Besides this being their home, also monetarily in this they are hoping that it will be favorable to that. As far as the traffic problem, she agrees with the previous gentleman that the traffic is at the corner of Roosevelt Avenue and Route 13 and it’s from the car wash. It gets clogged up because people are waiting to turn into the car wash. As a person who lives directly on the street, not back into the trailer park or back into the apartments, the traffic does not bother them. It would be good if people actually followed the 25 MPH speed limit but the volume of traffic is no issue at all for them. Ms. Kelly Croft – 138 Roosevelt Avenue Dover DE 19901 Ms. Croft stated that she was in support of the Rezoning. Mrs. Janie Wolfe – 142 Roosevelt Avenue Dover DE 19901 Mrs. Wolfe stated that she and her husband are home owners and they have been living at this location for sixteen years. They agree with the Rezoning. They also believe that it will improve the look of their neighborhood. They don’t believe that the traffic is caused by any of the rezoning that has been done already or what they are asking for because there is nothing that’s there to cause traffic; the car wash that is causing the traffic issues. She thinks that this will improve their area and bring the property value up for their home. Mr. Ronald Short – 151 Roosevelt Avenue F-2 Dover DE 19901 Mr. Short stated that he opposes the Rezoning because he feels like there is a lot of traffic on the street. They are having more and more kids in the area and they have had a couple of accidents over the years. Mr. James Tieman – 151 Roosevelt Avenue A-6 Dover DE 19901 Mr. Tieman stated that he disagrees with the Rezoning because traffic is terrible. The keyword at one time was “yet” but it will happen. There have been plenty of accidents that almost happened in this area. If anyone has spare time they can come down there and look at the site and see how small it is, look at the congested area that it will be and look at the bottleneck that it will make. There are accidents just waiting to happen. Mrs. Janie Wolfe – 142 Roosevelt Avenue Dover DE 19901 Mrs. Wolfe stated that she has been living in this area for sixteen years and she has never seen a trailer come in and out of that trailer park. She knows that they said there were issues with Excerpt of Planning Commission Meeting of February 19, 2019 Page 5 of 6

moving homes but she has never seen it happen. She could have missed it but she lives right across from the trailer park and again, they keep bringing up this issue with the traffic. It is the car wash and the light at the highway that’s the issue; it’s not Roosevelt Avenue. She believes that the traffic lights need to be looked at because there are accidents there but it’s not because of the traffic coming in and out of Roosevelt Avenue.

3/6/19 To Dawn, Dawn Melson City of Dover As we have previously discussed, we request City Council defer action at their March 11, 2019 Dept of Planning meeting of our request for annexation of 2920 N DuPont Highway. We believe we will be ready 15 Loockerman Plaza for consideration at City Council's meeting on April 22, 2019. We still have not received the final Dover. Delaware 19901 decisjon on the well for the property and until we resolve this issue, we don't have permission to annex into the city. I spoke to DNREC yesterday and we shoul_d have this resolved in the next few weeks. It is our intent to proceed with .the final annexation process as soon as we receive a positive response from DNREC. Let me know if there is anything else that you need from me.

PETITION TO ANNEX AND REZONE PROPERTY Public Hearing Before the City Council on March 11, 2019 Recommendation from Planning Commission Meeting of February 19, 2019 with Staff and Development Advisory Committee Review File Number: AX-19-01 Ordinance Number: 2019-01 Applicants: New Wind Properties 2920 LLC Franchise Management Services, Inc. Owner of Record: New Wind Properties 2920 LLC Property Address: 2920 North DuPont Highway, Dover DE Tax Parcel ID #: ED-00-057.02-01-08.00-000 Lot Size: 0.57 acres Present Zoning: BG (General Business Zone) Proposed Zoning: C-4 (Highway Commercial Zone) Comprehensive Plan Category 1: High Priority Annexation Areas Designation: Comprehensive Plan Commercial Land Use Designation: Present Use: Vacant Commercial Building Proposed Use: Restaurant with drive-thru (Dunkin’ Donuts per proposed redevelopment plan submitted to Kent County) Utility Availability: Electric: 2920 North Dupont Highway is currently served by City of Dover Electric. Water and Sanitary Sewer: 2920 North DuPont Highway is not currently served by City of Dover Water or Sanitary Sewer. Currently, the property is served by an on-site well and septic system. Water and Sanitary Sewer are only available on the opposite side of Route 13, this property is situated on the eastern

AX-19-01 Lands of NewWind Properties 2920 LLC at 2920 N. DuPont Highway Planning Commission Recommendation Report of February 19, 2019 Page 2 of 7 side of the road. Staff has discussed the utility situation with the Applicant. The developer understands that they will have to obtain DelDOT / City of Dover approval to connect the sanitary sewer on the opposite side of Route 13. This is critical as utility crossings of Route 13 are strongly discouraged by DelDOT and only approved with special approval by District Public Works. The City will allow the property to continue to operate the existing well until it fails, at that point, they will be required to connect to the City’s water distribution system. The property owner would be responsible for the costs associated with tapping the sanitary sewer and/or water mains, extending services to the property, payment of impact fees, and obtaining permits. Planning Commission Recommendation: Following a public hearing on February 19, 2019, where no members of the public spoke regarding the proposed annexation and rezoning, the Planning Commission voted in favor of the annexation with the proposed C-4 zoning with eight (8) votes in favor and no votes in opposition (one member absent). Summary This application is for the Annexation and Rezoning of the property at 2920 N. DuPont Highway, Dover. It is a parcel of land totaling 0.57 acres +/- (25,000 SF). The owner of record is NewWind Properties 2920 LLC. Tax Parcel: ED-00-057.02-01-08.00-000. Existing Property The property is located on the east side of North DuPont Highway and adjacent to the north side of Maxwell Street. The boundary of the City of Dover is currently across North DuPont Highway. This annexation will include the adjoining right-of-way of North DuPont Highway equal to the property’s frontage width to connect the property to the existing City boundary on the west side of North DuPont Highway. The property includes an existing one story building likely constructed originally as a gasoline service station. The property is currently zoned BG (General Business District) in Kent County. The building most recently was utilized as offices; however, it is currently vacant. A potential new occupant of the building has been working through the site/building renovation process in Kent County to establish a new use of the building as a drive-thru restaurant (Dunkin’ Donuts). There is a designated exit onto Route 13 and entrance/exit to Maxwell Street. There is part of a sidewalk system along the highway frontage. Surrounding Land Uses Immediately surrounding uses on this east side of North DuPont Highway (Route 13) include other commercial businesses such as offices, service establishments, and retail establishments. To the east of the parcels fronting Route 13, is a residential area consisting of single family dwellings and a mobile home/manufactured home park. These properties are in Kent County. On this east side of Route 13, the closest properties within the City limits are as follows: to the

AX-19-01 Lands of NewWind Properties 2920 LLC at 2920 N. DuPont Highway Planning Commission Recommendation Report of February 19, 2019 Page 3 of 7 south the WAWA at the intersection with Rustic Lane and to the north are the property at 3074 N. DuPont Highway (Annexed in 2018) and the campus of Wilmington University. The west side of Route 13 is within the City of Dover boundaries and includes the Dover Town Center with multiple retailers, the Outback Restaurant, the Bob Evans Restaurant, a hotel, and the Delaware State University Learning & Living Commons facility. Comprehensive Plan In the 2008 Comprehensive Plan (as amended), the Potential Annexation Areas (Map 13 -1) identifies the property in the Category 1: High Priority Annexation Areas. The Growth and Annexation Plan Chapter (Chapter 13) notes that “Lands in this category are primarily enclaves of unincorporated territory mostly surrounded by the City of Dover. In all or most of these cases, the City provides these parcels with one or more essential service (sewer, water, police, fire, trash).” For Category 1: High Priority Annexation Areas, it notes in the Recommendation that “the City will not extend sewer and/or water infrastructure to Category 1 areas unless the property owners annex into the City” with consideration given for issues of health, safety and welfare. The Comprehensive Plan also sets the review criteria for the review of zoning for parcels being proposed for annexation. Chapter 13, pages 170-171 note that the Zoning Review may include: • Proposed zoning be in compliance with the land use category shown on Map 13-2 and used in conjunction with Table 12-1: Land Use and Zoning Matrix; • Character and compatibility of the surrounding land uses and properties; • The street type and capacity serving the property; • Environmental concerns and conditions that may influence land use and zoning; • Market concerns and conditions; • The compatibility with the overall goals of the Comprehensive Plan. Map 13-2: Potential Land Use for Annexation Areas identifies the Land Use for this property to be Commercial. The Land Development Plan Chapter (Chapter 12) makes the following recommendation for Commercial Land Use in this Route 13 area of the City: US Route 13/113 Corridor The US Route 13/113 corridor is dominated by highway commercial development. For the most part, the Comprehensive Land Development Plan proposes to continue US Route 13/113 as the major commercial corridor in Central Delaware. Few vacant developable parcels exist within this area. However, potential exists for the redevelopment of older retail stores and strip shopping centers. The Comprehensive Plan encourages the renovation and adaptive reuse of older structures within the highway corridor as means of restoring property value, preventing blight and demolition by neglect, and enhancing the overall image of the highway environment. In some cases the demolition of older structures may be beneficial, and should be supported, to enable redevelopment to occur within the corridor. As part of the Land Development Plan, Table 12-1: Land Use and Zoning Matrix specifies that the following zones are compatible with this land use classification of Commercial. C-1 (Neighborhood Commercial) C-1A (Limited Commercial)

DuPont Highway Planning Commission Recommendation Report of February 19, 2019 Page 6 of 7 Annexation Plan of the 2008 Comprehensive Plan as Category 1: High Priority Annexation Areas with a Land Use Designation as Commercial. The C-4 zoning is consistent with the development in the area and is consistent with the Land Use Designation of Commercial. Recommendation of Planning Commission The application was represented by Mr. Brock Parker of Parker and Associates, an engineering design firm working with the project developer. Following a public hearing on February 19, 2019, where no members of the public spoke regarding the proposed annexation and rezoning, the Planning Commission voted in favor of the annexation with the proposed R-8 zoning (One Family Residence Zone) with eight (8) votes in favor and no votes in opposition (one member absent). The Development Advisory Committee Report and Comments on the Application were provided to the Planning Commission for consideration.

AX-19-01 Lands of NewWind Properties 2920 LLC at 2920 N. DuPont Highway Planning Commission Recommendation Report of February 19, 2019 Page 7 of 7 5) The applicant shall be aware that approval of any Annexation & Rezoning application does not represent a Building Permit or other construction activity permit approval.

The City of Dover Department of Public Works does not allow dog house manhole connections per our Water / Wastewater Handbook; therefore a drop connection will be required if the lateral is connected to a manhole. If the manhole is five foot (5') diameter, the drop can be inside, if the manhole is four foot (4') diameter, the drop must be outside. If the connection is not to a manhole, it must be connected to the main through a wye connection.

As per the Petition to Annex and Rezone Property, as heard by the Council Committee of the Whole, January 29, 2019, please find the following: a. 2920 North Dupont Highway is located on the east side of Route 13 and is currently served by City of Dover Electric. It is not served by City of Dover Water or Sanitary Sewer. Currently, the property is served by an on-site well and septic system. Water and Sanitary Sewer are only available on the opposite side of Route 13, this property is situated on the eastern side of the road. Staff has discussed the utility situation with the Applicant. The developer understands that they will have to obtain DelDOT / City of Dover approval to connect the sanitary sewer on the opposite side of Route 13. This is critical as utility crossings of Route 13 are strongly discouraged by DelDOT and only approved with special approval by District Public Works. The City will allow the property to continue to operate the existing well until it fails, at that point, they will be required to connect to the City’s water distribution system. The property owner would be responsible for the costs associated with tapping the sanitary sewer and/or water mains, extending services to the property, payment of impact fees, and obtaining permits. The Developer will need to obtain necessary approvals from DelDOT and DNREC prior to construction. The Office of Drinking Water will

CITY OF DOVER PLANNING COMMISSION February 19, 2019 Excerpt from Meeting Minutes – Draft The Regular Meeting of the City of Dover Planning Commission was held on Tuesday, February 19, 2019 at 7:00 PM in the City Hall Council Chambers with Chairman Mr. Tolbert presiding. Members present were Mr. Adams, Mr. Roach, Ms. Edwards, Mr. Holt, Mr. Baldwin, Dr. Jones, Ms. Maucher and Mr. Tolbert. Mrs. Welsh was absent. Staff members present were Mr. Dave Hugg, Mrs. Dawn Melson-Williams, Mr. Jason Lyon, Mr. Julian Swierczek, Mr. Eddie Diaz and Mrs. Kristen Mullaney. AX-19-01 Lands of New Wind Properties 2920 LLC at 2920 N. DuPont Highway – Public Hearing and Review for Recommendation to City Council of an Annexation Request and Rezoning Request for a parcel of land totaling 0.57 acres +/- (25,000 SF) located at 2920 North DuPont Highway, Dover. The property is currently zoned BG (General Business Zone) in Kent County. The proposed zoning is C-4 (Highway Commercial Zone). The property is located on the east side of North DuPont Highway and adjacent to the north side of Maxwell Street. The annexation category according to Dover’s 2008 Comprehensive Plan is Category 1: High Priority Annexation Areas and the land use designation is Commercial. The owner of New Wind Properties 2920 LLC. Property Address: 2920 N. DuPont Highway. Tax Parcel: ED-00-057.02- 01-08.00-000. Proposed Council District 3. Ordinance #2019-01. The First Reading of this Annexation Request was completed on January 14, 2019. Final Reading/Public Hearing is scheduled before City Council for March 11, 2019. Representatives: Mr. Brock Parker, Parker and Associates Mrs. Melson-Williams stated that this is a request for Annexation. The applicants are the owner of record which is New Wind Properties 2920 LLC and also Franchise Management Services Inc. who is the potential redeveloper of the site. The property is 0.57 acres and located on the east side of North DuPont Highway and is adjacent to Maxwell Street. This is the area of the City that is up across from what was the old Dover Sheraton, the North Dover Lowes, north of Wawa and near the Dover Towne Center project that has the Outback Steakhouse Restaurant in the front. Currently, the property in the County is zoned BG (General Business Zone). They are requesting annexation into the City with a proposed zoning classification of C-4 (Highway Commercial Zone). With any Annexation, we have to look to the City’s Comprehensive Plan and in there we find that this area is designated as Category 1: High Priority for Annexation and has a land use designation of Commercial. On the property, there is currently a vacant commercial building and the potential development has been working through some of the review process with Kent County to redevelop that building into a restaurant with drive-through for that site. Tonight, the Planning Commission will be making a recommendation on the Annexation and a recommendation in regards to the zoning of the property. In doing so, our Comprehensive Plan calls for our zoning to be in compliance with the land use category that is outlined in the Excerpt of Planning Commission Meeting of February 19, 2019 Page 1 of 3

Comprehensive Plan. With a land use category of Commercial, the proposed zoning of C-4 (Highway Commercial Zone) does comply with that. Also, to be considered should be the character and compatibility of the surrounding land uses, the adjacent street types and the general environment that the property is located in. The DAC Report does include a listing of the types of uses that are allowed in the C-4 (Highway Commercial Zone). It allows for a variety of retail, office, restaurants and service type of establishments. It also allows for hotels, places of public assembly, some other service needs and some manufacturing type activities. There are also a number of conditional uses that could be reviewed in the C-4 (Highway Commercial Zone). It is the recommendation of Planning Staff that the Annexation occur and that the zoning of the property be C-4 (Highway Commercial Zone). Staff finds that the subject property is within the City’s Annexation Plan as a High Priority Annexation Area and that the C-4 (Highway Commercial Zone) zoning is consistent with the development along the highway corridor and is also consistent with the land use category of Commercial. In the DAC Report, a number of the participating agencies have provided comments. Basically, they have no objections to the Annexation of the parcel. They do provide a series of Advisory Comments related to redevelopment of the site. Specifically, the Public Works Office has noted that water and sanitary sewer is located on the west side of North DuPont Highway and the applicant is pursuing the ability to connect to City sewer through that office. The property already is served by City of Dover Electric. Likewise, the Fire Marshal’s Office has provided some advisory information related to fire protection needs of the site and the building should it become part of the City of Dover. DelDOT and the Kent Conservation District likewise have no objection to Annexation. Mr. Parker stated that they are the Civil Engineers and Surveyors representing the developers of the property. They take no exception to any of the comments in the Staff Report. The Advisory Comments are all things that we know and things that we are prepared to overcome. As you know, the property has been through the County portion of the planning process. It was at the conclusion of that planning process that they went in to get their septic system replaced. Once they started throwing in all of their arcs from all of their adjacent wells and septics, it just got too small for their feasible use for a Dunkin Donuts Store. They approached Dover and they said that there is sewer on the other side; so, their current plan is to tie that building into the sewer that is on the other side of the highway through a small lift station force main. Mr. Diaz (Mr. Jason Lyon) and his group have been very accommodating and helpful to them in trying to get that plan work together. They have met with DelDOT and they seem agreeable to letting them get across their road. The proposed zoning that is suggested by the City does fit their needs and their ultimate use. They take no exception to any of the comments in the DAC Report. Mr. Tolbert questioned if they will continue to work cooperatively with Planning Staff regarding this application? Responding to Mr. Tolbert, Mr. Parker stated yes. Mr. Tolbert opened a public hearing and after seeing no one wishing to speak, closed the public hearing. Ms. Maucher questioned if they were planning to connect to City water immediately or wait until the well fails? Responding to Ms. Maucher, Mr. Parker stated that they are going to wait until the well fails. DNREC is now reviewing the existing well to make sure that it’s sufficient for their Excerpt of Planning Commission Meeting of February 19, 2019 Page 2 of 3

use. Mr. Holt moved to recommend approval to City Council for application AX-19-01 to C-4 (Highway Commercial Zone). Ms. Edwards questioned if the motion should also include the Annexation of the property? Responding to Ms. Edwards, Mr. Tolbert stated absolutely. Mr. Holt moved to recommend approval to City Council for application AX-19-01 for annexation of the property and for the zoning of C-4 (Highway Commercial Zone), seconded by Dr. Jones and the motion was carried 8-0 by roll call vote. Mr. Holt voting yes; he thinks that it’s a good extension on the City Plan and should be a good fit for Dover. Mr. Baldwin voting yes. Dr. Jones voting yes. Ms. Maucher voting yes; based on Staff recommendations. Mr. Adams voting yes. Mr. Roach voting yes; you can never have too many Dunkin Donuts. Ms. Edwards voting yes. Mr. Tolbert voting yes; there are no problems with this application. Excerpt of Planning Commission Meeting of February 19, 2019 Page 3 of 3

Municipal Annexation Plan of Services Pursuant to Title 22, Delaware Code, §101, any city or town proposing to extend its boundaries, irrespective of any municipal charter provisions, whether such extension is proposed by action of the General Assembly or pursuant to the provisions of a home rule charter, must submit a Plan of Services to the Office of State Planning Coordination. The Plan of Services must be received by our office for review and acceptance at least 20 working days prior to the final discretionary action taken by the municipal legislative body. Please review your charter to identify the final discretionary action for your particular jurisdiction. For example, in some municipalities, the act of voting to hold a special election obligates the jurisdiction to annex the property in advance, pending the outcome of the election.
