Adoption of Agenda Mr. Taylor moved for adoption of the agenda, seconded by Mr. Neil and unanimously carried. Evaluation of Bids - Switchgear Building for Garrison Oak Technology & Business Park (GOTBP) Substation Mr. Paul Waddell, Electric Director, reviewed the background and analysis regarding the Switchgear Building for Garrison Oak Technology & Business Park (GOTBP) Substation. He noted that they received five bids and, although Siemens was not the low bidder, their submission fully met the specifications and included commissioning in the price, which could provide a cost savings of $20,000 to $30,000 over the Anixter ABB bid. Staff recommended awarding RFP #22-0008EL for the switchgear building for Garrison Oak Technology & Business Park (GOTBP) substation to Siemens in the amount of $1,187,158. Mr. Boggerty moved to recommend approval of staff's recommendation, seconded by Mr. Neil and unanimously carried. Page 14

Item #3. CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF DECEMBER 13, 2021 PAGE 9 By consent agenda, Mr. Neil moved for approval of the Committee’s recommendation, seconded by Mr. Rocha and carried by a unanimous roll call vote. Evaluation of Bids - Transformer for Garrison Oak Technology & Business Park (GOTBP) Substation Mr. Paul Waddell, Electric Director, reviewed the background and analysis regarding the Transformer for Garrison Oak Technology & Business Park (GOTBP) Substation. Staff recommended awarding RFP #22-0009EL for the Transformer for Garrison Oak Technology & Business Park (GOTBP) Substation to Anixter (GE 1b) in the amount of $814,188. Responding to Mr. Contant, Mr. Waddell stated he was unsure where the money would be coming from. He had heard that there was cash on hand from previous management or that it may come from a reserve account. Responding to Mr. Sudler, Mr. Waddell stated Ms. Peddicord would have the answer to where the money was coming from. He noted that he did not have access to the software system that would show what account the funds would come from. Mr. Waddell stated he had been in talks with Ms. Peddicord and Mr. Dill and the typical process was to receive final approval for equipment from Council, then have a Purchase Order in hand and he would have to pay 10 percent up front. Responding to Mr. Contant, Mr. Waddell stated this was the fourth bid for this project and the total was $2.3M of a $7M budget. He noted that this would be considered major equipment that would require a lot of foundation work. Mr. Waddell advised that, once approval of the evaluation of bids was granted, it would go to the City's engineering contractor and they would provide plans for the construction side that would go out for bid. He stated that they were currently on budget with projected costs of equipment. Mr. Rocha moved to recommend awarding RFP #220009EL to Anixter (GE 1b) in the amount of $814,188, as recommended by staff. The motion was seconded by Mr. Neil and unanimously carried. By consent agenda, Mr. Neil moved for approval of the Committee’s recommendation, seconded by Mr. Rocha and carried by a unanimous roll call vote.

Staff recommended awarding RFP #22-0012EL to Denney Electric in the amount of $163,680. Page 15

Item #3. CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF DECEMBER 13, 2021 PAGE 10 Responding to Mr. Anderson, Mr. Waddell stated the LED Security Lights are 15-20 watt bulbs that would replace 1,550 conventional 100 watt bulbs, resulting in a financial savings to the City. Mr. Waddell stated that Denney Electric was the second lowest bidder and, although Irby was the lowest, they priced an incorrect photocell and, if corrected, it would have put Irby outside the total cost. Responding to Mr. Neil, Mr. Waddell stated the control center for communicating with the 618 lights was defective and another one has been ordered for replacement at no cost to the City. Responding to Mr. Sudler, Mr. Waddell stated the LED Security Lights went out for bid twice due to a clerical error on the part number. He advised that, after speaking with Mr. Wolfgang, he contacted the companies that had bid on the initial Request for Proposals (RFP) to let them know it was being retracted and re-released with the correct part number. Mr. Neil moved to recommend awarding RFP #22-001EL to Denney Electric, as recommended by staff. The motion was seconded by Mr. Shevock and unanimously carried. By consent agenda, Mr. Neil moved for approval of the Committee’s recommendation, seconded by Mr. Rocha and carried by a unanimous roll call vote. Mr. Rocha moved for adjournment of the Legislative, Finance, and Administration Committee meeting, seconded by Mrs. Arndt and unanimously carried.

Adoption of Agenda Mr. Neil moved for adoption of the agenda, seconded by Mrs. Arndt and unanimously carried. Creation of an Ad - Hoc Committee to Discuss the Effects and Implementation of Proposed Ordinance #2021-26 - Creating a New Chapter 28 - Dawdling (Councilman Ralph Taylor, Jr.) Mr. Taylor, briefed Committee members on the creation of an ad-hoc committee to discuss the effects and implementation of Proposed Ordinance #2021-26, which would create a new Chapter 28 - Dawdling.

Item #3. CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF DECEMBER 13, 2021 PAGE 11 Responding to Mr. Taylor, Mr. Sudler stated he would recommend that members include the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP), a representative from Delaware State University, and the Interdenominational Ministerial Alliance (IMA) or any other faith-based religious organization that expressed interest in being on the committee. Ms. Leandra Casson Marshall, 3 Starboard Court, advised that she would like to join the committee representing herself and the Interdenominational Ministerial Alliance (IMA). Responding to Mr. Taylor, Mrs. Arndt stated that City Council was awaiting a legal opinion to determine if Council was moving forward with the ordinance as proposed. She suggested that before forming a committee or discussing how it should be implemented, Council members should await the legal opinion to see if the proposed ordinance could be implemented legally. Responding to Mr. Taylor, Mr. Sudler stated the synopsis of the legal opinion was to check with the ACLU and the community. Responding to Mr. Sudler, Mrs. Traci McDowell, Interim City Clerk, stated that she thought the discussion of the legal opinion would take place with Mr. Rodriguez, City Solicitor, in an executive session . She noted that this item was added to the agenda to discuss the formation of the Ad-Hoc Committee to work on the ordinance, with the assistance of the ACLU and other groups. Responding to Mr. Taylor, Mr. Neil stated that bringing in the ACLU and a lawyer associated with the NAACP to look at the ordinance was a good idea. He noted that the purpose of the committee was to un-demonize something that was needed. Mr. Neil advised that the ordinance would not add a criminal aspect to a person, only a fine. He stated that the City of Dover was being hurt by what was happening in the downtown area, businesses are drying up, and people do not want to visit the downtown. Responding to Mr. Taylor, Mr. Boggerty stated he was looking forward to serving on the committee and would keep an open mind and come to a resolution that does not appear to target anyone. Mr. Boggerty advised that he was also a member of the Downtown Dover Partnership Committee on Safety and Advisory and the issues with downtown businesses at a certain point had nothing to do with people feeling it was dangerous, it had to do with the economy, sustainability, and parking. Responding to Mr. Taylor, Dr. Jackson stated it was important to look at who was being targeted and who was creating the issues and then identify ways to help resolve the issues before looking into creating an ordinance. Dr. Jackson advised that she suggested the formation of an ad-hoc committee to discuss the ordinance and noted that, until they received all the information, they were moving blindly. Page 17

Item #3. CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF DECEMBER 13, 2021 PAGE 12 Responding to Mr. Taylor, Mr. Shelton stated that it was important to understand how this would benefit the City of Dover and to get people involved. He noted that he would like to involve students from Delaware State University or a Dover High School Student to have them discuss what was going to provide a better understanding; however, he suggested understanding the legal ramification before moving forward. Reverend Rita Paige, 355 Rita Wilma Road, advised that she would like to serve on the committee to represent the IMA Social Action Committee. Responding to Mr. Taylor, Mr. Neil stated that the Police Department would be able to advise them about who is creating the disturbances. Responding to Mr. Taylor, Mr. Boggerty stated that adding an addendum to the nuisance ordinance to hold businesses accountable for the actions of the people in and around their businesses at a certain time could solve some of the problems. He noted that every other business around Dover that has had a nuisance issue had been closed or has taken appropriate action to resolve the issues. Mr. Michael Hermann, 14697 John Peel Road, Galena, Maryland stated that he agreed with Mr. Shelton that representatives of this committee should reflect the population they were trying to target. Mr. Sudler stated that in 2018 they spoke with the community, the Department of Justice, Alcohol Tobacco and Firearms (ATF), and the Mayor's Office to look at their nuisance laws and did adjust the ordinance. He advised that, if a business was negligent and knew that their patrons were not in compliance with the rules and regulations, they would be fined $1000. Dr. Jackson stated that she was present for the discussion in 2018 and she agreed with Mr. Sudler. She also stated that until they could identify the people involved they could not bring them to the table. Mr. Anderson moved to recommend tabling Creation of an Ad-Hoc Committee to Discuss the Effects and Implementation of Proposed Ordinance #2021 - 26 - Creating a New Chapter 28 - Dawdling until the January Safety Advisory and Transportation Committee meeting. The motion was seconded by Mr. Neil and unanimously carried. (City Clerk’s Office Note: This item was removed from the Consent Agenda and considered during the latter part of the meeting.) Mr. Neil moved for adjournment of the Safety Advisory and Transportation Committee meeting, seconded by Mr. Rocha and unanimously carried. Meeting adjourned at 7:01 p.m. Mr. Neil moved for adjournment of the Council Committee of the Whole meeting. The motion was seconded by Mr. Rocha and unanimously carried. Page 18

Item #3. CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF DECEMBER 13, 2021 PAGE 13 Meeting adjourned at 7:02 p.m. By consent agenda, Mr. Neil moved for acceptance of the Council Committee of the Whole Report, seconded by Mr. Rocha and carried by a unanimous roll call vote. MONTHLY REPORTS - October 2021 By motion of Mr. Neil, seconded by Mr. Rocha, 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 Controller/Treasurer’s Budget Report Fire Chief’s Report Police Chief’s Report APPOINTMENT RECOMMENDED BY MAYOR CHRISTIANSEN - ETHICS COMMISSION - BRANDY M. WALKER (TO FILL THE EXPIRED TERM OF GARY COY) TERM TO EXPIRE JULY 2025 Mayor Christiansen requested the appointment of Brandy M. Walker to the Ethics Commission for a five-year term to expire July 2025. By consent agenda, Mr. Neil moved for approval of the appointment of Brandy M. Walker, as recommended by Mayor Christiansen. The motion was seconded by Mr. Rocha and carried by a unanimous roll call vote. RECONSIDERATION - DEVELOPMENT OF DAWDLING ORDINANCE (CREATION OF AN AD-HOC COMMITTEE TO DISCUSS THE EFFECTS AND IMPLEMENTATION OF PROPOSED ORDINANCE #2021-26 - CREATING A NEW CHAPTER 28 - DAWDLING (COUNCILMAN RALPH TAYLOR, JR.) During their Regular Meeting of October 26, 2021, members of the Council Committee of the Whole/Safety Advisory and Transportation Committee considered Ordinance #2021-26 Creating a New Chapter 28 - Dawdling. The Ordinance was tabled by the Committee at that time. During their Regular Meeting of November 23, 2021, members of the Council Committee of the Whole/Safety Advisory and Transportation Committee considered development of a dawdling ordinance (creation of an ad-hoc committee to discuss the effects and implementation of proposed ordinance #2021-26 - creating a new chapter 28 - dawdling). The Committee recommended tabling the creation of an ad-hoc committee to discuss the effects and implementation of Proposed Ordinance #2021 - 26 - Creating a New Chapter 28 - Dawdling until the January Safety Advisory and Transportation Committee meeting. Mr. Taylor said he believes that openly discussing Dawdling prior to any legal opinion and any real in-depth conversation was a mistake and it led to some conversations that were incomplete and Page 19

Item #3. CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF DECEMBER 13, 2021 PAGE 14 inaccurate. He explained that now was their opportunity to fix some things; however, a large number of citizens have expressed their displeasure with the proposal. Council listened to the citizens and decided that rather than attempt to create an ad-hoc committee to discuss exactly what the dawdling ordinance was designed to do, it would review the current loitering ordinance as a community to determine how to enforce the ordinance, but leave every citizen with their dignity. Mr. Taylor suggested that anyone who wanted to be a part of the ad-hoc committee should apply online at the City’s website. Council President Sudler advised members that the current recommendation was to discontinue discussion of Ordinance #2021-26, Dawdling. Mr. Rocha asked if discontinuing the conversation about dawdling meant dissolving the bill and starting from scratch. He requested more clarification. Mr. Taylor stated that some of the dawdling language is similar to the loitering language; however, they will not pursue the dawdling ordinance. Mr. Sudler clarified that they would be setting aside, vacating, and abandoning discussion of the dawdling ordinance and not revisiting it. Mr. Rocha moved to officially abandon Proposed Ordinance #2021-26 - Dawdling and allow the ad-hoc committee under the leadership of Councilman Taylor to review the current loitering ordinances on the books for update. The motion was seconded by Mr. Anderson and carried by a unanimous roll call vote. Mr. Boggerty, noting that the loitering ordinance pertains to parks and recreation, requested to co- chair the ad-hoc committee. Mr. Taylor agreed and thanked Mr. Boggerty for his assistance. INTERIM CITY MANAGER'S ANNOUNCEMENTS None. COUNCIL MEMBERS' ANNOUNCEMENTS Mr. Taylor extended prayers to the Daisey family. He expressed how much Mr. Daisey meant to him. Mr. Taylor also expressed his gratitude to Ms. Faye White for the invitation to speak at Luther Village. He also spoke about how the river walk was progressing nicely and how he believes it will be an incredible community effort. During announcements Mr. Taylor suggested the following: • Moving Council members’ remarks from the end of the meeting to an item after the Pledge of Allegiance • Modifying the agenda to add elected official’s comments or updates. • Suggested Council Committee of the Whole Meetings should be offered via Facebook Live to allow real time communication with constituents. Mr. Anderson wished everyone a Happy Holiday. He also extended condolences to the Daisey Page 20

Item #3. CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF DECEMBER 13, 2021 PAGE 15 family. He thanked the members of all the neighborhood watch associations for their dedication. Mr. Anderson also reminded residents that Dover Police Department provides a vacation watch list service that allows homes to be monitored by police on patrol in the city while the resident is on vacation. Mr. Hare introduced and congratulated Ms. Andria Bennett on being hired as the new City Clerk- Select. Council President Sudler welcomed Ms. Bennett to the City of Dover family. He also announced that there will be no meetings on December 27 or 28th. Mr. Sudler wished Councilman Boggerty and Councilman Rocha a happy birthday. He also wished a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all Dover constituents and neighboring municipalities. Dr. Pillsbury thanked everyone and said she was honored to be there, noting that she was really looking forward to her term on City Council. Mr. Hare moved for adjournment, seconded by Mr. Neil and unanimously carried. Meeting adjourned at 7:25 p.m. TRACI A. McDOWELL INTERIM CITY CLERK All ordinances, resolutions, motions, and orders adopted by City Council during their Regular Meeting of December 13, 2021 are hereby approved. ROBIN R. CHRISTIANSEN MAYOR Page 21

Item #4. COUNCIL COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE The Council Committee of the Whole Meeting was held on December 14, 2021 at 6:00 p.m., with Councilman Neil presiding in the absence of Council President Sudler. Members of Council present were Mr. Anderson, Mr. Hare, Mrs. Arndt, Mr. Rocha, Mr. Taylor, and Dr. Pillsbury. Mr. Boggerty was absent. Civilian members present for their Committee meetings were Mr.Lewis, (Parks, Recreation, and Community Enhancement) and Mr. Contant and Mr. Shevock (Legislative, Finance, and Administration). Mr. Jones (Parks, Recreation, and Community Enhancement) was absent. Adoption of Agenda Mr. Hare moved for adoption of the agenda, seconded by Mr. Rocha and unanimously carried. LEGISLATIVE, FINANCE, AND ADMINISTRATION COMMITTEE The Legislative, Finance, and Administration Committee met with Chairman Anderson presiding. Adoption of Agenda Mr. Hare moved for adoption of the agenda, seconded by Mrs. Arndt and unanimously carried. Evaluation of Bids - Silver Lake Dam Repairs Mr. Mark Nowak, Interim Public Works Director, reviewed the background and analysis regarding the evaluation of bids for the Silver Lake Dam Repairs. Staff recommended awarding the contract to Mar-Allen Concrete Products, Inc., for the City of Dover Silver Lake Dam Repairs, Bid #22-0016PW, for the amount of $57,480.00. Responding to Mr. Taylor, Mr. Nowak stated there was only one responder to the bid process. Mar - Allen Concrete Products, Inc., was deemed qualified by the Public Works staff to complete all work that was listed in the bid. Responding to Mr. Neil, Mr. Nowak advised that the budget for this project was $100,000 and the bid came in at $57,000. Mr. Hare moved to recommend approval of staff's recommendation, seconded by Mr. Rocha and unanimously carried. Evaluation of Proposals - Medical Professional Positions Chief Thomas Johnson, Dover Police Department, reviewed the background and analysis regarding the evaluation of proposals for the Medical Professional Positions. Staff recommended approval of the grant and awarding the contract to Dover Behavioral Health Systems. Responding to Mr. Taylor, Lieutenant Jordan Miller of the Dover Police Department stated that once the program is set up, the Police Department would be able to skip the emergency room. He noted that the Behavioral Health unit would consist of one officer and one clinician responding to a call and they would take over the scene as they saw fit. They would do their assessment and determine if the person needed to be seen by a psychologist right away or if they could be set up for an outpatient program. Lieutenant Miller Page 22

Item #4. COUNCIL COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE MEETING OF DECEMBER 14, 2021 PAGE 2 advised that they would then be able to leave and conduct follow up to ensure that they were maintaining their end. He noted that it would alleviate responding back in a moment of crisis in the future. Responding to Mr. Anderson, Chief Johnson stated that this program does not set aside any other existing programs. The Angel Program is still available and a letter was signed that week for the Narcan Leave Behind Program. Chief Johnson advised that because the police department is getting clinicians it does not mean that they are not exploring other areas to try and be effective with the opioid epidemic. Responding to Dr. Pillsbury, Lieutenant Miller stated there were certain instances where they might be able to avoid criminal prosecution if there was victim cooperation or if there was no victim. He noted that it would take some work with the Attorney General's office to get that in place. There will be a release or a waiver form signed by the individual at the time so the police can go and follow up with their treatment and ensure that they are showing up. The police are not going to follow them around for the three year timeline to charge them for a misdemeanor, but they would have to put some type of guidelines in place. Lieutenant Miller advised that they plan to have paperwork in place and a Memorandum of Understanding to ensure follow up. He stated that they would be providing them with an opportunity, instead of just constantly responding, making an arrest, taking them forth for arraignment, and then having to respond back out. Responding to Mr. Contant, Chief Johnson stated they are master level practitioners who have the ability to commit patients. Responding to Dr. Pillsbury, Mr. Contant advised that these professionals are qualified to aid in mental health issues and substance abuse. If someone needs further treatment, Dover Behavioral Health can provide everything from beginning to end, with the exception of a crisis situation that would require an emergency room visit. Mr. Hare moved to recommend approval of the grant and awarding the contract to Dover Behavioral Health Systems, as recommended by staff. The motion was seconded by Mr. Rocha and unanimously carried. Update on Analysis of Segal Study Results Mr. Dave Hugg III, Interim City Manager, reviewed the background and analysis regarding the Segal Study. Responding to Mrs. Arndt, Mr Hugg stated that Segal fulfilled their contract with the City and there was still a retainer. Mr. Hugg advised that he was unclear if that meant the City would have to pay for additional services but he was discouraged by the results of the study. He noted that the positions appeared to do fairly detailed peer assessments and comparatives, and you can track them through the system and they may be useful to use, but it is only a fraction of the total positions they looked at. Mr. Hugg advised that, in a number of cases, Segal did not do the peer comparable and those results do not seem to hold up. He stated that they were still analyzing and hoping they will get a lot more detail back when they respond to their December 7, 2021 inquiry. Responding to Mr. Anderson, Mr. Hugg stated that it was unfortunate in some respects that Council and staff made salary adjustments the last year to move certain employees up to what they believed to be the minimum market value that, in retrospect, was questionable. Can you really justify that was in fact, the minimum, even though they all agreed that we would move people who were below that minimum, to the Page 23

Item #4. COUNCIL COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE MEETING OF DECEMBER 14, 2021 PAGE 3 minimum. Mr. Hugg stated that they would ask to be back on the agenda when they have gotten some additional information. Mr. Hugg agreed with Mr. Hare that there was a lot of information in the Segal Study; however, there was also a lot of misinformation. Mr. Rocha moved for adjournment of the Legislative, Finance, and Administration Committee meeting, seconded by Mr. Taylor and unanimously carried. Meeting adjourned at 6:29 p.m. PARKS, RECREATION, AND COMMUNITY ENHANCEMENT COMMITTEE The Parks, Recreation, and Community Enhancement Committee met with Chairperson Arndt presiding. Adoption of Agenda Mr. Anderson moved for adoption of the agenda, seconded by Mr. Hare and unanimously carried. Mayor and Council Reports - September 2021 Council President Sudler Council President was absent and no report was given. First District Mr. Rocha reported that new signs had been installed on Forest Avenue and Hazlettville Road, which prohibits trucks with more than two axles from using Mifflin Road. He advised that the signs originally were on Mifflin Road and he made a request to have them installed on Forest Avenue and Hazlettville Road so that truck drivers can see the signs before they make the turn. Mr. Rocha noted that they would continue to move forward on a proposal with Del DOT to reduce the speed limit to 25 miles per hour on Mifflin road. Second District No report was given. Third District No report was given. Fourth District Mr. Anderson stated that he recently used Community Enhancement funds to help with Christmas with the Tracy Palmer Ministries for members in the Fourth District. He thanked Chief Johnson for his view of certain aspects to loitering. Mr. Anderson referenced arrests made on December 8, 2021 for drug and firearms offenses on South New Street. He advised that they started out basically as loitering. Mr. Anderson asked that the ad hoc committee be one that unifies them and gets the job done. At-Large Mr. Boggerty was absent and no report was given. Page 24

Information Technology Department November 2021 Report Larry Josefowski, Director Metrics: The four charts this month indicate the number of incidents handled was low, which may be an indication we are not tracking all incidents due to other work taking precedence. The number of attacks, both low level and more serious, was more than double our normal figures, probably due to the holidays approaching, which is a time when organizations are often targeted. The System Security scores are a way to measure policies that the vendor believes should be implemented in the environment. While a good measure, most require additional licensing for additional features. All servers are patched monthly, and workstations are patched weekly; devices may be offline for a variety of reasons and not get a particular patch. Network Security (External): IT received the draft report on the Critical Resource Review and shared it with key stakeholders. An out-brief is scheduled for early in December. We also held several meetings on a desktop Cyber Security Exercise on January 25th. Network Security (Internal): Multifactor Authentication, where a code is needed to confirm identity, was added to all of our administrative accounts. This was heavily pushed by our cybersecurity insurance, and by implementing it before the deadline, we were able to keep our insurance at the existing level and keep the costs at the same level. Not implementing would have drastically decreased the coverage and would have increased it significantly. We also instituted a block on our Data Loss Protection option in our mail server and had zero violations for the first time since we started tracking this. We also met with the state on possible implementation of a tool they have under a grant. While a good tool, existing systems we have in place duplicate this, and we declined to participate. Training: User training was completed with a 75% compliance rate. Hardware Vulnerability: Capital funds were reallocated at the end of the month, allowing us to proceed with ordering the most significant switches needed. These replacements were postponed over the past several years, which has resulted in all network equipment being past support and creating a vulnerability and performance issues. We have also requested ARPA funding to purchase additional hardware, as well. However, supply shortages may delay implementation for up to 6 months. IT’s future budget requests will attempt to remediate this over a 5 year period with 50-100K per year, but there is an assumption of risk in this plan by not replacing the hardware sooner. Other: The team continues to work on the Tyler/Munis deployment, including learning more about their support model and how upgrades are being done. IT’s focus during this process is to observe Tyler/Munis perform the upgrades, as they are contracted to do, but to learn how this is done if needed for future issues. I also completed a Cybersecurity Leadership Academy course, which was 14 weeks long, which focused on executive leadership in this area. IT worked with the Water/Wastewater department to implement an automated process that is available from a tablet or phone that should eliminate an existing process that requires printing and scanning paper several time right now and should be implemented by the end of the year.

Item #17. City Planner’s Monthly Report Department of Planning & Inspections NOVEMBER 2021 Planning & Inspections Highlights Some Items to Call to Your Attention A look at the November 2021 construction activity in the City, shows that it continues to keep a steady pace above the levels experienced in the Fall of 2020. This November saw 152 Permits issued with a construction value of over $1 million bringing the total value of new construction this calendar year to date to $8.5 million. In comparison, this month last year (November 2020) a total of 76 permits were issued. A total of 3,048 Business Licenses have been issued so far this year keeping a similar pace from the previous year. Other licensing programs for Public Occu- pancy Permits and Rental Dwelling Permits will be subject to renewals in January 2022. We continue to see an uptick in Residential Building Permits issued for new home construction with November 2021 having nine (9) Permits. The subdivisions of Eden Hill Farm TND, Patriot Village and Oak Shadows are areas of construction activity. Residential units are also being com- pleted with eight (8) unit receiving Certificates of Occupancy in November. Several new units came onboard in the Downtown Development District area. For non-residential Building Permits focused on renovation projects and tenant fit-out projects, we continue to see slow but steady activity. Code Enforcement saw 340 new cases opened in November with most related to exterior prop- erty maintenance issues, abandoned/unregistered vehicles, and other Dover Code of Ordinance violations. A total of 739 Code Inspections were undertaken including 106 Annual Housing In- spections. There are 41 active Dangerous Building cases open as the City continues to abate vio- lations at some of these Dangerous Buildings. A total of 147 buildings are registered as Vacant Buildings. The Boards and Commission continued to present meetings in a Hybrid (In-Person and Virtual) Format. The Planning Commission met on November 15th and four applications were consid- ered: Annexation of Rights-of-Way and Site Development Plans for warehouses, a car wash, and a restaurant. The Historic District Commission met November 18 at their Annual Meeting. The Board of Adjustment did not meet. With the appointment of previous Director Dave Hugg to Interim City Manager, Dawn Melson– Williams is the Interim City Planner/Building Inspector leading the Department (effective Octo- ber 28, 2021). Supporting the Diversity and Inclusion initiatives of the City, the Department cele- brates birthdays and shares career improvement/certification successes. Page 54

Item #20. COMMUNITY POLICING This proactive unit takes the lead on community engagement and supporting our community organizations. They have administrative responsibilities and also support other departmental units, such as patrol, during times of high work volumes or special operations with enforcement activities. In addition to those duties, the unit accomplished the following in November:  Supported the Downtown Dover Partnership attending 1st Friday activities.  Supported City Hall “Team Dover” with daily escorts.  Assisted with traffic enforcement in Cannon Mills after stop sign violation complaints.  Supported the PAL event delivered to the Capital Green neighborhood.  Supported Capital School District at Dover High School with rowdy dismissal behavior.  Supported the “Pinning Ceremony” for the Towne Point Safety Patrol.  Supported the Academy of Dover Haitian Cultural Night.  Assisted with traffic enforcement in Towne Point after speeding violation complaints.  Acquired footwear for the local homeless from the Army/Navy Store.  Conducted “Operation Gobble” with Community Partners delivering Thanksgiving meals. Members of the CPU attend numerous meetings with community associations and organizations as a part of our ongoing liaison relationships. CHIEF’S ADVISORY COMMITTEE The Police Chief’s Advisory Committee (PCAC) is comprised of nine (9) diverse stakeholders living/working in the City of Dover. It meets regularly to provide input/feedback to the Chief on the various operations of the agency. November activity is as follows:  One member attended the 2021 session of the Dover PD Citizen’s Police Academy and described her experience to the group. The comments were very positive and the member learned a lot despite the fact that she had been exposed to a considerable amount of information during her service on the Advisory Committee. One noteworthy observation was that certain crime scene photos were more disturbing to those with existing emotional traumas and it might be wise to screen for that potential before future crime scene classes.  The review of topics identified both in the June session with Council members and a survey conducted during National Night Out continued during this meeting. o In response to the call for diverse programs for youth, it was noted that PAL programs extend beyond athletics and include leadership skills. There are plans for a public safety oriented Explorer Post as soon as conditions permit. Also, there may be room for collaboration with the Youth Camp program connected to the Dover AFB Museum. o The location of National Night Out 2022 was discussed and ultimately led to a thought that one of the school properties closer to the center of town might be a more ideal location to improve attendance. 4|Page Page 93

Item #20. o In response to a comment regarding juvenile crime prevention, it was noted that the Community Policing Unit (CPU) was attempting to build a bridge that connected their evening work in neighborhoods with the supportive work of the School Resource Officers (SRO) who see the kids during the school day. Formal after- school programs that are done year-round in collaboration with Capital School District resources.  The Chief discussed several ongoing topics: o The beginnings of the Budget Cycle for FY 23 and how it impacts planning. o The progress of funding for Body Worn Cameras. o The progress on the RFP related to Behavioral Health Specialists. o The completion of the GVI – Dover area problem analysis with a report pending. o The ongoing hiring process during a period of quality candidates in short supply. o The possibility of expanding the SRO program by one Officer in FY23. PROGRAMS AND INITIATIVES  With the adoption of another Federal Budget Continuing Resolution, the Body Worn Camera grant continues to be stalled at that level. As previously agreed, the BWC program will proceed without the approval notification. The City Manager signed off on the product order and we expect to begin receiving products and services at the beginning of the New Year. Program development continues as the State develops its BWC regulations.  The GVI-Dover Problem Analysis has been completed and we continue planning activities with the National Network as well as Governor Carney’s Office. Timelines are still being met on this project.  Now that a vendor has been selected for the Behavioral Health program, planning meetings are being scheduled as we anticipate final City Council approval on the contract award at the January 10th meeting.  The Police Academy will have resumed activities on January 9th and Dover will have six (6) Recruits in training as a part of an Academy cohort of approximately 25 candidates. An open invitation continues for Council to observe training activities at their pleasure.

McGonigle@BTLaw.com December 15, 2021 VIA ELECTRONIC MAIL: nrodriguez@schmittrod.com Tharvey@.dover.de.us cityclerk@dover.de. us. City of Dover Tracey Harvey, Planner & CDBG Administrator Clo Nicholas Rodriguez, Equire 15 Loockerman Plaza Dover, Delaware I 990 I RE: AMERICAN RESCUE PLAN ACT COUNSEL Dear Mr. Rodriguez, Barnes & Thornburg LLP (" Firm") is very pleased to serve as American Rescue Plan Act (" ARPA") counsel to the City of Dover (" Dover"), which is considered a Community Development Block Grant Entitlement City of the State of Delaware (the "CDBG City"). I am enclosing the Firm 's Standard Terms of Engagement for Legal Services setting forth the standard terms upon which the Firm accepts client engagements. The Firm 's engagement by Dover in this matter will be governed by these standard terms to the extent not expressly modified by this letter. SCOPE OF SERVICES The Firm is being engaged to assist Dover in connection with the American Rescue Plan Act funds , including applicable uses, advising on potential projects, and reporting and compliance related to the United States Treasury (the " Matter"). Although I will be the lawyer responsible for the Matter, other lawyers and legal assistants at the Firm will assist me, depending upon their expertise and experience. My responsibilities include selecting personnel to provide services consistent with Dover 's expectations. Barnes & Thornburg LLP will perform the services described above for a fixed monthly fee of $3,500 beginning January I , 2022. As a CDBG City, Dover is permitted to utilize ARPA Page 96

Item #22. December 15, 2021 Page 2 of 4 funds for legal services related to the utilization of APRA funds. The Firm bills clients on a monthly basis and generally expects payment within 30 days. OTHER REPRESENTATIONS As previously indicated, this engagement will be governed by the Firm 's Standard Terms of Engagement for Legal Services. ln particular, by signing this letter, Dover agrees that we may represent other clients in certain matters adverse to you as described in the Standard Terms of Engagement for Legal Services under the caption "Waiver of Certain Potential Conflicts of Interest." Particularly, with respect to our Firm 's government relations practice, Dover is aware that the Firm represents the interests of other persons and entities before various legislative and executive bodies, and administrative agencies at the local, state, and federal level. In addition, the Firm represents a broad spectrum of clients in many different industries in connection with a wide variety of matters. For example, the Firm has an active land use practice and may have current or future matters on behalf of clients in your jurisdiction. In addition, because of the Firm 's size, and as Dover might expect, the Firm has lawyers and non-lawyer lobbyists with many different views and philosophies. Some of the Firm 's lawyers and non-lawyer lobbyists are from time to time involved with the political process for various candidates and causes, sometimes interests which in some cases, might be adverse to the interests Dover seeks to promote through its engagement of the Firm. We do not believe that our representation of these other clients with points of view that differ from Dover 's will affect the Firm 's ability to provide competent and diligent representation to any of our Firm 's clients. Dover acknowledges and agrees that the Firm, and other Firm clients, will act in reliance on Dover 's advance consent in undertaking future representations . Should Dover at some later time w ish to revoke its consent, it agrees that the method for doing so shall be by terminating the Firm 's representation at that time, and that such revocation will not require Barnes & Thornburg LLP or its attorneys to discontinue representation of such other clients. As we have discussed, in running conflicts to open this matter we have discovered the Firm represents other clients adverse or potentially adverse to Dover. Specifically, we represent Delaware State University regarding real estate matters, wherein Dover may be involved with the transaction. In addition, the Firm represents H.D. Smith regarding defense of claims in litigation in connection with the oversupplying controlled substances. The work we perform for Delaware State University and H.D. Smith is wholly unrelated to the work we will perform for Dover related to ARPA. We do not believe that our representation of Delaware State University or H.D. Smith in unrelated matters will adversely affect our representation of Dover in this Matter or vice versa. However, in order for us to proceed forward with our representation of Dover, we need Dover's consent and waiver of these conflicts. With the signature below, Dover signifies BARNES & THORNBURGttP Page 97

Item #22. December 15, 2021 Page 3 of 4 that Dover agrees to waive all conflicts and consent to our continued representation of Delaware State University and H.D. Smith in other unrelated matters. TERMINATION OF SERVICES Dover may terminate this engagement at any time simply by notifying the Firm. The Firm may terminate this engagement for nonpayment of our fees and where we are required or permitted to do so by the Rules of Professional Conduct after giving Dover reasonable notice and allowing time for Dover to engage successor counsel, if necessary. Upon termination of this Agreement by either party, the Firm will be entitled (i) to retain all sums previously paid; (ii) to payment of all outstanding unpaid invoices; and (iii) to payment for services through the date that the Firm received notice of termination upon receipt and approval in accordance with this agreement of a statement covering such services. CONCLUSION If this letter accurately sets forth the engagement and Dover 's understanding, please so indicate in the space provided below and return a signed copy of this letter to me. We ask Dover to acknowledge that, in reviewing and executing this letter, Dover has not relied on any advice provided by the Firm, but instead has acted solely in reliance upon the advice of other counsel. I look forward to working with you on this matter. If you have any questions, please call me. Sincerely, Thomas P. McGonigle Enclosure AGREED AND ACKNOWLEDGED BY CITY OF DOVER: BARNES &THORNBURGLLP Page 98
