SPECIAL COUNCIL MEETING BUDGET REVIEW A Special Council Meeting was held on May 29, 2018 at 6:01 p.m. with Council President Slavin presiding. Council members present were Mr. Anderson, Mr. Neil, Mr. Lewis, Mr. Cole, Mr. Polce, Mr. Hare, and Mr. Lindell. Mr. Sudler was absent. Staff members present were Mrs. Mitchell, Mr. Dill, Mr. Hugg (departed at 6:44 p.m. and returned at 6:53 p.m.), and Mrs. McDowell. Mayor Christiansen was also present. AGENDA ADDITIONS/DELETIONS Mr. Lewis moved for approval of the agenda, seconded by Mr. Neil and unanimously carried. INTRODUCTION AND PRESENTATION OF FISCAL YEAR 2019 RECOMMENDED BUDGET Council President Slavin expressed his thanks for the work that had been put into this budget, noting that he thought that this was perhaps the most solid and transparent budget that he had seen in all the years that he had served. He stated that this budget hit all the marks that Council asked of staff, explaining that it was the result of Council providing strategic direction and staff doing the heavy lifting to deliver on that vision. Mr. Slavin noted that there are no proposed tax increases, and the only increases in rates are supported by the data from the rate studies that Council commissioned so that the City can satisfy the rate payers and bond covenants. He stated that it was as transparent a document as he could have hoped for and is certainly as transparent a document as the citizens should expect from our government. Mr. Slavin extended his thanked to Mrs. Donna Mitchell, City Manager, and all of the City of Dover staff for the tremendous effort and product, noting that he thought this was the result of the very mature and stable government that the City currently has. HIGHLIGHTS OF OVERALL BUDGET Mrs. Donna Mitchell, City Manager, thanked members of Council and all of the City’s committees for their support. She introduced Mr. Jeff Dill, noting that he had previously worked in the Finance Department and was now serving as the City’s Budget Analyst. Mrs. Mitchell expressed thanks to Mrs. Sharon Duca, Director of Public Works/City Engineer, for the excellent work she did in helping her analyze the sanitation services. She also thanked the entire sanitation crew, explaining that she appreciated all of the support that they gave her while she was analyzing the options regarding the City’s sanitation services. Mrs. Mitchell reminded members that the City’s motto is “Community Excellence through Quality Service.” She reviewed a poster (Exhibit #1) depicting the “D.O.V.E.R.” acronym she developed, explaining that Dover employees have dedication, ownership, vision, excellence, and reliability and provide community service, public safety and public utilities. Mrs. Mitchell advised members that this would expand to town hall meetings that she was going to hold to talk to all employees and let them know how much the City appreciates the support that they give the City and its residents. She also reviewed a poster of the City’s mission statement (Exhibit #2), noting that this budget was developed with those statements in mind.

SPECIAL CITY COUNCIL MEETING - BUDGET REVIEW MAY 29, 2018 PAGE 2 Mrs. Mitchell reviewed a presentation entitled “City of Dover, Fiscal Year 2019 & Beyond, Proposed Budget, Budget Highlights & Discussion Points, May 29, 2018,” budget pages 9-27. She reminded members that the discussion during the Council Workshop of January 26, 2018 included strategic goals and the future of the City, and staff tried to incorporate that into this budget, so it goes beyond 2019. Mrs. Mitchell provided members with handouts entitled “City of Dover, Draft Budget - Fiscal Year 2018/2019, Challenges Going Forward” (Exhibit #3) and “City of Dover, Comparative Personnel Table” (Exhibit #4). ELECTRIC TARIFFS AND POWER COST ADJUSTMENT (PCA) CREDIT Mrs. Donna Mitchell, City Manager, reviewed a presentation entitled “City of Dover, Budget Workshop, Fiscal Year 2018-2019, Electric Fund Rates, PCA Credit & Future Planning,” budget pages 29-33. Mrs. Mitchell advised members that the budget for the Power Plant may decrease prior to adoption of the budget. She explained that she had asked the Plant Manager to provide her with an implementation plan regarding the recommendation to decrease their staff by six (6) people by May 31, 2018, noting that the draft budget maintained the current number of positions. SANITATION COST OF SERVICE RECOMMENDATION Mrs. Donna Mitchell, City Manager, advised members that the concept of looking at outsourcing sanitation was to contract out sanitation services and redeploy personnel to other divisions, where needed, and create a separate parks and recreation grounds and maintenance crew. She explained that there were three (3) options: 1) sell outright including equipment, 2) establish a franchise with one (1) vendor, with the City managing the contract, like the recycling contract, and 3) maintain the current service. Mrs. Mitchell noted that one vendor has a customer service team that can handle all customer service inquiries, so if the City selected a vendor like that, it would also cut down on the office staff workload. Mrs. Mitchell explained that the impact on operations that staff considered included significantly less fleet maintenance, a reduction in administrative and clerical functions and long-term capital costs, and the potential to bring police vehicle maintenance in-house or reduce fleet staff. She stated that the City would have to contract out for picking up animal carcasses, as well as code enforcement debris and the related charges to property owners. Mrs. Mitchell noted that some of the concerns were customer expectations and service levels. She stated that outright sale may create model providers and route confusion. She explained that could be avoided with a franchise agreement because a contractor would be expected to understand the City street and alley network. Mrs. Mitchell advised that the Delaware Solid Waste Disposal agreement and the recycling contract are tied together and both expire in 2021. Mrs. Mitchell reviewed a presentation entitled “City of Dover, Budget Workshop, Fiscal Year 2018- 2019, Sanitation Cost of Service Recommendation,” budget pages 33-38.

SPECIAL CITY COUNCIL MEETING - BUDGET REVIEW MAY 29, 2018 PAGE 3 STORMWATER UTILITY RECOMMENDATION Mrs. Donna Mitchell, City Manager, noted that copies of the “City of Dover, Stormwater Utility Feasibility Study,” the Council Committee of the Whole/Utility Committee minutes of July 12, 2018, as well as the “Annual Expenditures Summary and Budget Projections, Stormwater Utility” were included in the back of members draft 2018/2019 budget binders (Exhibit #5). Mrs. Mitchell reviewed a presentation entitled “City of Dover, Budget Workshop, Fiscal Year 2018- 2019, Sanitation Cost of Service Recommendation,” budget pages 39-45. CLOSING REMARKS - PLANNING FOR THE FUTURE Mrs. Donna Mitchell, City Manager, referring to page 46 of the budget, advised that the demands on resources attributed to growth and aging infrastructure continue to create serious challenges for the City’s citizens and staff. She stated that the City’s current revenue levels do not support the funding needs for long-term improvements, and the staffing levels needed to complete the required vegetation maintenance each year for City property, right away maintenance, sidewalks, alleys, and City buildings are insufficient. Mrs. Mitchell informed members that asset maintenance plans and replacement schedules are nonexistent for City assets in several areas, including parks, substations, stormwater, etc. She stated that a greater focus on police and code enforcement activities has been emphasized by the past and present Council members. Mrs. Mitchell reminded members that the Garrison Oak Technical Park was improved with an investment of $14.5M of infrastructure; however, the City has not yet received a positive return on that investment. She noted that the City currently budgets $201,000 for mowing and ditch maintenance. Mrs. Mitchell stated that while she understands the need to continue to improve City amenities, the City needs to first catch up on all the deferred maintenance that has resulted from tight budgets over the past 10 years. Mrs. Mitchell advised members that there is a need to address staffing in area in which maintenance has fallen behind. She indicated that practices and staff need to be addressed to ensure that there are enough resources for operations to continue on a daily basis. Mrs. Mitchell explained, for example, that there are 10 employees in the Sanitation division, all 10 of which are needed to run all of the bulk, automated, and handheld trucks every day, so if someone takes leave, the supervisor steps in to run the truck. She advised that when that happens, two (2) people are off and things do not get done. Mrs. Mitchell explained that the City needs to transition from being reactive to being proactive and anticipating future needs. She stated that the proposed budget takes one step toward achieving that objective with the Parks and Recreation maintenance crew and shoring up the Central Services Department. Mrs. Mitchell noted that, after filling vacant positions and a review of all operations, she will be meeting with department heads to discuss where there are deficiencies as a result of staffing or where the City can shift operations or staff if practical to do so. By unanimous consent, the meeting recessed at 6:44 p.m. and reconvened at 6:51 p.m. OPERATING DEPARTMENT AND DIVISION SUMMARIES, FUND SUMMARIES AND RESERVE ACCOUNTS, AND REVIEW OF CAPITAL INVESTMENT PLAN SUMMARIES Operating Department and Division Summaries, Fund Summaries and Reserve Accounts information, and Capital Investment Plan Summaries were provided to members.

SPECIAL CITY COUNCIL MEETING - BUDGET REVIEW MAY 29, 2018 PAGE 4 Mr. Slavin advised members that this would be an appropriate time for them to ask any questions regarding the budget summary and overall highlights provided by Mrs. Mitchell. Mr. Hare asked if the business retention rate for electric included the deal that the City made with Kraft. Responding, Mrs. Mitchell explained that the business retention rate had expired in 2016 and Council would need to decide whether the City was going to continue it or leave it expired. In response to Mr. Hare regarding funding for streets, Mrs. Mitchell clarified that the Community Transportation Fund (CTF) is a separate fund. Referring to page 314 of the budget, she explained that there was $500,000 budgeted in the current fiscal year, as well as the CTF money from both Senator Bonini and Representative Lynn for the former library. Mrs. Mitchell stated that next fiscal year there is another $500,000 budgeted in the CTF, noting that this is the typical amount earmarked each year. She noted that Senator Bonini has two (2) additional $500,000 increments in the next two (2) fiscal years as well. Referring to the Street Program, Mrs. Mitchell advised that the General Fund money had been deferred for the current fiscal year, explaining that staff was just now getting the bids out because they were dealing with whether or not to use prevailing wage. As requested by Mayor Christiansen, Mrs. Mitchell reminded members that the decision on the Davis-Bacon prevailing wage is that the City is moving forward with the bidding with prevailing wage. She explained that to do it without prevailing wage, staff would have to manage each street as a separate contract for the CTF money and the City money because you cannot co-mingle, and that would cause too much of an administrative issue. Mrs. Mitchell stated that last year projects were bid out as both prevailing and non-prevailing wage and the prevailing wage created an approximate 14% increase in the projects; however, it was decided to bid them all as prevailing wage in the future, to prevent the administrative hardship it would create on staff. Responding to Mayor Christiansen, Mrs. Mitchell advised that she wants quality work whether or not the City pays Davis-Bacon wages. She confirmed that, with the projected increase, the City would be guaranteed that the contractors would do excellent, or better than excellent, work and City inspectors would follow up on performance. Mr. Neil noted that, in reviewing the departmental budgets, it appeared that the City was upgrading the telephone systems in several offices and also adding GPS or updating radio systems in the field offices. He commended staff for making these updates and asked Mrs. Mitchell to provide an overview since it would be impacting many departments. In response, Mrs. Mitchell stated that she was proposing adding GPS to all City vehicles, except police vehicles because she wanted to find out what technology was already in those vehicles. In regard to the telephones, she explained that there are increased telephone expenses, as well as an update regarding the allocation of all of the telephone equipment. Mrs. Mitchell stated that the allocation of the telephone equipment was maintained by the Finance Department and due to staff turnover, the allocation sheet did not get updated. She advised that staff performed an audit of all of the allocations and revised budgets accordingly, so the budget reflects the change in accounting rather than new equipment. Mr. Hare moved for approval of Fiscal Year 2018/2019 budget, as presented, seconded by Mr. Polce.

SPECIAL CITY COUNCIL MEETING - BUDGET REVIEW MAY 29, 2018 PAGE 5 Mr. Anderson moved to suspend the rules to allow for public comment from Mr. Les Blakeman, seconded by Mr. Lindell and unanimously carried. Mr. Les Blakeman stated that he was a little disappointed that the original agenda had a discussion of retiree benefits, however, it was not included on the revised agenda. He noted that he had been advised that if there is any kind of increase for the pensioners, it should be discussed during the budget review, so they know how to budget for it. Mr. Blakeman stated that he was concerned that it didn’t take place, explaining that whether they get an increase or not is an issue that he would at least like to have a discussion about at some point. Responding, Mr. Slavin asked that this item be placed on a Legislative, Finance, and Administration Committee agenda to determine if the City can do something midyear. Mr. Neil, referring to page 227 of the budget, noted that the City was replacing Windows XP with Windows 7, which was another outdated version of Windows. He noted that Microsoft was not supporting Windows 7 anymore and asked why the City was not updating to Windows 10. In response, Mrs. Mitchell explained that she thought that the narrative was not updated, however, she would check with the IT Director to make sure. Mr. Lindell stated that he noticed that the City was running a deficit in the General Fund this fiscal year and explained that he did not want to repeat the same situation that happened a few years ago, when there was a delay in looking at taxes and then a crisis hit and nothing else could be cut from the budget, so taxes had to be raised all at once. Mr. Slavin stated that it was his understanding that the City was not running at a deficit, that the revenues are more than the expenditures, however, it does not include the carry forward budget. Responding, Mrs. Mitchell stated that the City’s expenditures exceed its revenues. She advised that the biggest part of that exceedance is that the capital asset transfer from the general fund for capital projects is more than last year. Mrs. Mitchell stated that she plans to address that issue with the storm water utility, by pulling the Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) out of the General Fund, so it does not continue long term. She explained that otherwise, the City would be looking at a seven (7) to nine (9) cent tax increase. The motion for approval of the Fiscal Year 2018/2019 Budget, as presented, was carried by a roll call vote of seven (7) yes (Neil, Lewis, Cole, Polce, Hare, Lindell, and Slavin), one (1) no (Anderson), and one (1) absent (Sudler). Mr. Slavin reminded everyone that the First Reading of the 2018/2019 City of Dover Budget Ordinances was scheduled for June 11, 2018, and the Final Reading and Council action would take place on June 25, 2018. Mr. Neil moved for adjournment, seconded by Mr. Hare and unanimously carried. Meeting adjourned at 7:03 p.m. TRACI A. McDOWELL CITY CLERK

Where Are Stormwater Utilities Being Used?  Stormwater utility activities in Delaware  Wilmington and Lewes BPW in place (2006 and 2010)  Newark currently investigating  New Castle County initiated but did not complete Slide 8

Page 22

Why Is the City Considering a Stormwater Utility?  Address increasing NPDES compliance costs  City needs a compliance-based utility  Provide resources for under-funded programs  Downtown development / watershed-level evaluations  Capital program / system optimization  Comprehensive O&M program / proactive approach  Decrease reliance on General Fund appropriations  No longer adequate to support programs  Results in competing with dissimilar services  Equitable approach fairer to all Slide 9

Stormwater Utility Rates  Primary Foundation  Direct correlation exists between imperviousness and impact  Must Be Equitable  Property owners’ fee proportional to impact on system  Not Administratively Burdensome  Time consuming to determine impact for every lot  Use tiers for single-family lots (80% of total parcels in Dover)  Use square footage for others (83% of total impervious area in Dover) Slide 14

Presentation - Summer in the Parks Mrs. Margery Cyr, Library Director, stated that it is no secret that the ability to read is one of the keys to a successful life and is surely the key to success in school. She advised that public libraries around the world work hard at preventing the summer slide, which is a phenomenon that occurs to elementary and middle school students when they stop reading during the summer. Mrs. Cyr stated that the Dover Public Library offers opportunities for reading and engagement during the summer;

Page 65

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 25, 2018 PAGE 4 however, they have worried about changes in today's environment, which make visiting the library on a regular basis difficult for many families. She explained that they struggle with creating a plan to bring library services out into the community for the benefit of those who need the services most, but can't get there for one reason or another. Mrs. Cyr stated that the Parks and Recreation Department is blessed with 33 City parks and they have long wished for an opportunity to bring active programming into the parks during the summer, but had been challenged with limited resources to do so. She informed members that last winter, the Library and Parks and Recreation Department met to discuss how to meet these needs with the limited resources of both departments and staff agreed to collaborate on a project called Tuesday in the Park. Mrs. Cyr reviewed a flier regarding Tuesday in the Park, explaining that on Tuesdays, beginning June 19, 2018 at 11:00 a.m., the Library and the Parks and Recreation Department will offer programs that combine reading enrichment and physical activities. She noted that the programs would take place at Mallard Pond Park, Dover New Street Park, and Dover Park, and children, youth and families are encouraged to participate. Mrs. Cyr stated that the Dover Police Athletic League (P.A.L.) has struggled with some of the same issues for service that the Library and Parks and Recreation Department are facing. She reviewed a flier regarding Upcoming Dover P.A.L. Events, noting that on Fridays, beginning July 6, 2018 at 10:00 a.m., the Police Athletic League will offer physical activity and fun for all ages. Mrs. Cyr stated that the Friday P.A.L. events would be held at People's Church, Dover Park, Mayfair Park, and Schutte Park. Mrs. Cyr informed members that the Library, Parks and Recreation Department, and Dover P.A.L. are very excited about this opportunity to bring events for families into the parks this summer. She expressed her hope that members would join them in the parks and help them spread the word about this amazing opportunity for the community. Mr. Neil indicated that he thought this was a terrific set-up of programs throughout the entire City that would be spectacular for the entire community. He expressed his hope that the word gets out and that the crowds come, noting that he thinks the people will enjoy it. Responding to Mr. Anderson, Mrs. Cyr stated that she would be happy to email the fliers to members in PDF and jpeg formats, so they can use them however they want to. Referring to the reading enrichment program at 11:00 a.m. at Dover Park, Mr. Sudler asked what accommodations would be made if it rains, noting that there is no center. Responding, Mrs. Cyr explained that all of the programs are outside at all of the parks, and the only park that has an inside facility is Schutte Park, which will be used

Page 66

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 25, 2018 PAGE 5 for a P.A.L. event. She noted that all of the events are subject to the weather and they do have lots of pop-up tents that they are planning to take with them. Mrs. Cyr stated that they have an opportunity to move some of them into the Library; however, that is not really ideal because the purpose is to bring the events out into the community. UTILITY COMMITTEE The Utility Committee met with Chairman Cole presiding. Annexation Request - 3074 North DuPont Highway, Owned by Jesse L. Allen Mrs. Sharon Duca, Public Works Director/City Engineer, reviewed the Petition to Annex and Rezone Property located at 3074 North DuPont Highway, owned by Jesse L. Allen. She explained that although the annexation has being going through the appropriate process as contained within the Code, she wanted to clarify the comments provided by the Public Works Department regarding the water and sewer availability for the site. Mrs. Duca stated that she is not aware of what the applicant or owner intends to utilize the property for, or the basis of their request for wanting to annex into the City. She advised that the site is not currently provided public water and sewer. Mrs. Duca explained that City of Dover water and sewer are available within 200 feet of the property and the Delaware Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Control (DNREC) would not typically allow onsite water and sewer within that proximity. She advised that installation of City services would require approval from the Delaware Department of Transportation (DelDOT) to bore under Route 13. Mrs. Duca stated that DelDOT does not want utilities in their rights-of-way any longer; therefore, this would require a special approval from DelDOT. Mrs. Duca informed members that due to the fact that it would have to be bored and the County force main, which is already having issues, lies in the median, there will have to be particular caution and requirements and it would be highly unlikely that they would be able to obtain gravity sewer, which means they would need grinder pump connection. She explained that, depending on what they want to utilize the site for, they may need a two-inch connection for a standard usage or, if they are building a larger building or if the use of the building would require a sprinkler system, as per the Fire Marshal, that could require an eight-inch main to be run across. Mrs. Duca stated that the tentative costs at this point to provide service only to the property, which would be born by the applicant, would be $85,000 for the sewer and a two- inch line connection or $100,000 if an eight-inch line. Mrs. Duca noted that, through Kent County, Tidewater provides sewer and water to residences to the east and they also have an interconnection from the City through Wilmington University to provide supplemental water to that area if needed. Mrs. Duca advised that the closest water and sewer on the east side that is the City’s, is at Wilmington University, explaining that there is water at Wilmington University and they have a pump station that is City owned but associated with that site because there is no gravity sewer. She stated that there is also a force main near the Wawa

Page 67

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 25, 2018 PAGE 6 which serves the Wawa and other properties south; however, based upon an analysis that was done when the Sonic went in prior to the Starbucks, that force main is pretty much at a capacity and would not be able to receive additional flow. Mrs. Duca explained that the distances to either location on the east side of the highway are greater than 600 feet and would most likely have to run in the right-of-way, which would require DelDOT approval and also be very expensive, similarly to crossing the highway. Mrs. Duca stated that these are items that Council and the applicant may want to consider as part of the overall annexation because it may affect what is proposed for the site. Mr. Neil indicated that he thought that this annexation request seemed premature unless these issues are worked out. He asked if it made any sense to proceed with the annexation, unless the owner wants the property annexed without the availability of water and sewer. Responding, Mrs. Duca explained this was why Public Works Department staff recommended that the applicant should probably review this information to determine if this is still a path forward that they would like, particularly if their original intent was to receive City water and sewer. She noted that for commercial properties it is typically the developer’s responsibility to provide the water and sewer to their property. Mrs. Duca stated that the City does not provide individual service at its expense and if the City wanted to expand service to the east side of the highway, it would be much more expensive than what's proposed here and would also go into Tidewater districts. Mr. Neil asked how the Committee should proceed with this request other than a motion to defer it until such time as the applicant can resolve the issues that Mrs. Duca has reviewed. Responding, Mr. Cole advised that no action was required by the Committee at this time. Mrs. Duca stated that this was informative and that it was her belief that this information was being provided to the applicant since it is scheduled for consideration by the Development Advisory Committee and Planning Commission, and would also be coming back to City Council for consideration at a future meeting. Mr. Slavin noted that, as a matter of procedure, the proper action would be for the Committee to move this matter forward with no recommendation, which would allow the normal annexation process to continue. The Committee recommended moving the annexation request forward with no recommendation. During the Council meeting, Mr. David Hugg, Director of Planning and Community Development, advised that a number of issues and concerns were raised during the Committee meeting; however, members felt that the annexation request should move forward through the process. He noted that, during its meeting of June 18, 2018, the Planning Commission recommended approval of the

Page 68

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 25, 2018 PAGE 7 annexation with the proposed C-4 (Highway Commercial) zone. Mr. Hugg advised that the annexation request was scheduled for a public hearing before City Council on July 9, 2018. Mr. Anderson expressed concerns with the cost of extending utilities to the property. Responding, Mr. Hugg stated that the applicant was fully aware of those limitations and the potential cost, noting that they were discussed during the Planning Commission meeting. He noted that the applicant also understands that annexation does not guarantee that utilities would be provided by the City. Mr. Hugg advised that, if the property is annexed, the owner may continue to use the onsite well and septic system as long as they continue to meet the Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Control’s (DNREC) requirements. He stated that if, at some point, the property owner needs or wants public water or sewer, his options are then either to allow the City to plan to extend to those facilities or, potentially, if the City is not at a position where it wishes to extend the utilities for a single customer, Tidewater Utilities is nearby and it is potentially feasible for him to access those utilities as well. Mr. Cole moved to forward the request through the process. The motion was seconded by Mr. Neil and carried with Mr. Anderson voting no. Evaluation of Bids - Delaware Tech Pump Station Replacement Mrs. Sharon Duca, Public Works Director/City Engineer, reviewed the background and analysis regarding the evaluation of bids for the Delaware Tech Pump Station Replacement. Staff recommended awarding the contract to Teal Construction, Inc., for the City of Dover Delaware Tech Pump Station Replacement Project, Bid #18-0025PW, for the amount of $355,118. Mr. Sudler asked what the second lowest bid was and what the variation in the service would be between the two (2) contractors. Responding, Mrs. Duca stated that the second lowest bid was from George & Lynch, Inc. in the amount of $446,710.00 and, since these were bids, all of the contractors evaluated met all of the bidders qualifications and these are based upon price. Mr. Neil applauded staff, noting that he had observed that all of the bids being considered by the Committee during the meeting came in under budget, with the exception of one. He stated that he thought that this fit into the comprehensive plan of what the City is supposed to be doing in terms of these structures. The Committee recommended approval of staff’s recommendation. By consent agenda, Mr. Neil moved to award the contract to Teal Construction, Inc., for the City of Dover Delaware Tech Pump Station Replacement Project, Bid #18-0025PW, for the amount of $355,118, as recommended by the Committee. The motion was seconded by Mr. Hare and carried by a unanimous roll call vote.

Page 69

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 25, 2018 PAGE 8 Evaluation of Bids - North State Street Water Main Replacement Mrs. Sharon Duca, Public Works Director/City Engineer, reviewed the background and analysis regarding the evaluation of bids for the North State Street Water Main Replacement. Staff recommended awarding the contract to Gateway Construction, Inc., for the City of Dover North State Street Water Main Replacement Project, Bid #18-0028PW, for the amount of $163,480. Mr. Anderson asked how many recent contracts the City had with Gateway Construction, Inc. Responding, Mrs. Duca stated that the City had a few contracts with Gateway Construction, Inc. over the years, on various types of projects. She noted that they do all kinds of work and, for the most part, they had been responsive. Mr. Sudler thanked staff for their insight, noting that he thought it was a good call to assess and address this future problematic situation. The Committee recommended approval of staff’s recommendation. By consent agenda, Mr. Neil moved to award the contract to Gateway Construction, Inc., for the City of Dover North State Street Water Main Replacement Project, Bid #18-0028PW, for the amount of $163,480, as recommended by the Committee. The motion was seconded by Mr. Hare and carried by a unanimous roll call vote. Evaluation of Bids - Silver Lake Pump Station Replacement Mrs. Sharon Duca, Public Works Director/City Engineer, reviewed the background and analysis regarding the evaluation of bids for the Silver Lake Pump Station Replacement. She noted that it is the second of the three pump stations that are part of the Revolving Loan Fund package that the Department has been working on. Mrs. Duca advised that this pump station has exceeded its useful life and there will be some capacity adjustments, which will be funded through the impact fee reserves. Staff recommended awarding the contract to Teal Construction, Inc., for the City of Dover Silver Lake Pump Station Replacement Project, Bid #18-0026PW, for the amount of $422,338. Mr. Sudler asked Mrs. Duca for her opinion regarding why a lot of the bids were now coming in under budget. In response, Mrs. Duca stated that two (2) of the key factors that staff deals with relating to the bids are the time of year when they bid them out in relation to construction work, and the overall types of work being done in the area. In regard to the time of year, she explained that there can be a variation of price if contractors are already knee deep in projects and it would cost more for them to mobilize more crews to get these jobs done. Mrs. Duca, referring to the types of work being done in the area, stated that if there are lulls with private work on the utility side, the City could get better prices on jobs. She advised members that staff has found that they can often get better prices by bidding a combination of projects

Page 70

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 25, 2018 PAGE 9 out at the same time because contractors will be able to anticipate getting more work and be able to book their time better. Mrs. Duca reminded members that they had previously bid the Bradford Street and William Street water main replacement in the same bid. She stated that it is about trying to find appropriate combinations and keeping an eye on the market at the same time. The Committee recommended approval of staff’s recommendation. By consent agenda, Mr. Neil moved to award the contract to Teal Construction, Inc., for the City of Dover Silver Lake Pump Station Replacement Project, Bid #18-0026PW, for the amount of $422,338, as recommended by the Committee. The motion was seconded by Mr. Hare and carried by a unanimous roll call vote. Evaluation of Bids - Walker Woods Pump Station Replacement Mrs. Sharon Duca, Public Works Director/City Engineer, reviewed the background and analysis regarding the evaluation of bids for the Walker Woods Pump Station Replacement. She noted that it is the third of the three pump stations that are part of the Revolving Loan Fund package that the Department has been working on. Mrs. Duca advised that this is the remaining infrastructure item that the City retained after the redevelopment of the Walker Woods development that started a couple of years ago. Staff recommended awarding the contract to Teal Construction, Inc., for the City of Dover Walker Woods Pump Station Replacement Project, Bid #18-0027PW, for the amount of $525,000. The Committee recommended approval of staff’s recommendation. By consent agenda, Mr. Neil moved for approval of the Committee’s recommendation, seconded by Mr. Hare and carried by a unanimous roll call vote. Evaluation of Bids - Water Treatment Plant Process Improvements Mrs. Sharon Duca, Public Works Director/City Engineer, reviewed the background and analysis regarding the evaluation of bids for the Water Treatment Plant Process Improvements. She noted that there were concerns about the efficiency of being able to remove iron magnesia and that type of thing out of the shallow wells because this is the unconfined aquifer, and explained that the upgrades will improve the overall efficiency of the Plant. Mrs. Duca reminded members that the design for the upgrades went through a value engineering assessment through White Marsh, which was previously approved by the Committee and Council. She advised that, taking into account the operational requirements of the City of Dover, it was determined that this is the most appropriate design, although it is more expensive than originally thought before the design was complete. Mrs. Duca explained that the City Manager had included these funds within the budget, starting next year and it would also be partially funding through

Page 71

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 25, 2018 PAGE 10 a loan from the Revolving Fund. She stated that, at this point, with the appropriate planning, staff was within the budget requirements for this project and would be able to proceed with the loan as required. Mrs. Duca informed members that this project is expected to take over the next year or so to complete. Staff recommended awarding the contract to Johnston Construction Company for the Water Treatment Plant Process Improvements, Bid #18-0014PW, for the amount of $5,972,851. Mr. Anderson asked what was meant by the note that Bearing Construction and Johnston Construction Company provided extensions of their bids. Responding, Mrs. Duca explained that when the City originally put this project out to bid, the contractors had to hold the price for 90 days; however, due to the fact that the City wanted to go through the Value Engineering Assessment to make sure we were on the right track, we had to ask the contractors if they would hold their bid prices for a longer period of time. She stated that not all of the contractors held their prices but the final selection was made from those who did. Mr. Polce noted that he understood that the Drinking Water State Revolving Fund is a federal-state partnership and match, and asked if there is a maximum allocation request that the City can make for the Drinking Water State Revolving Fund. In response, Mrs. Donna Mitchell, City Manager, advised members that there probably is a maximum allocation; however, the City is evidently not exceeding it because the Water Advisory Committee reviews this and tells the City whether or not they are eligible for funds, and they authorized these funds. Mr. Sudler stated that he wanted to personally thank those contractors who held their bid, explaining that, as a contractor, he knows that contractors really do not want to hold a bid price because materials go up, and there are all kinds of variables when it comes to a bid. The Committee recommended approval of staff’s recommendation. By consent agenda, Mr. Neil moved to award the contract to Johnston Construction Company for the Water Treatment Plant Process Improvements, Bid #18-0014PW, for the amount of $5,972,851, as recommended by the Committee. The motion was seconded by Mr. Hare and carried by a unanimous roll call vote. Evaluation of Proposals - Puncheon Run Wastewater Engineering Mrs. Sharon Duca, Public Works Director/City Engineer, reviewed the background and analysis regarding the evaluation of proposals for the Puncheon Run Wastewater Engineering. Mrs. Duca explained that this is one (1) of the City’s larger pump stations and has a grit removal system that takes care of some of the solids and other inappropriate matter that is located within the wastewater stream.

Page 72

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 25, 2018 PAGE 11 Staff recommended awarding the contract to Pennoni Associates for the Puncheon Run Wastewater Engineering, Bid #18-0023PW, for the amount of $47,900. Mr. Sudler asked what the difference in the life span was for the current system versus the proposed new system. Responding, Mrs. Duca explained that part of the design is to provide the proposal on the new system. She stated that, in general, most things that they can choose from today have a better life span than what would have been put in the station 30 years ago. Mrs. Duca advised that one (1) of the key components of the design is testing the waste stream to see if there are any particular components that need to be taken into consideration for the materials that are used as part of the design, for instance, if something could be more corrosive, that could jeopardize the life span. The Committee recommended approval of staff’s recommendation. By consent agenda, Mr. Neil moved to award the contract to Pennoni Associates for the Puncheon Run Wastewater Engineering, Bid #18-0023PW, for the amount of $47,900, as recommended by the Committee. The motion was seconded by Mr. Hare and carried by a unanimous roll call vote. Evaluation of Proposals - Water Treatment Plant Construction Support Mrs. Sharon Duca, Public Works Director/City Engineer, reviewed the background and analysis regarding the evaluation of proposals for the Water Treatment Plant Construction Support. She explained that construction support is required because the level of the project being performed is outside the background of most of the City’s inspection staff and with the complexity of this station, staff would like people who are proficient in this area to make sure the construction is done properly and inspected. Staff recommended awarding the contract to Duffield Associates for the Construction Support related to the Water Treatment Plant Process Improvements, Bid #18-0018PW, for the amount of $298,500. Mr. Polce noted that the $7M budget for this project included the construction phase and construction support phase. He stated that $7M seemed great and asked how the City was generating these budgeted numbers and whether they were benchmarked accordingly. Responding, Mrs. Donna Mitchell, City Manager, advised that this project was originally budgeted for $2.7M and they had gone through the State Revolving Loan Fund for approval of that budget. She explained that when they got the engineering estimates, it was up to $6M. Mrs. Mitchell informed members that staff was able to divert $2M from the Wastewater Fund budget that had been budgeted for a water tower for the west side of Dover for which they were never able to get easements, and they received approval to increase the State Revolving Fund loan to $4M. She stated that the loan was for $4M and the rest of the funding was coming from the Water/Sewer Fund, impact fees, etc. The Committee recommended approval of staff’s recommendation.

Page 73

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 25, 2018 PAGE 12 By consent agenda, Mr. Neil moved to award the contract to Duffield Associates for the Construction Support related to the Water Treatment Plant Process Improvements, Bid #18-0018PW, for the amount of $298,500, as recommended by the Committee. The motion was seconded by Mr. Hare and carried by a unanimous roll call vote. LEGISLATIVE, FINANCE, AND ADMINISTRATION COMMITTEE The Legislative, Finance, and Administration Committee met with Council President Slavin presiding in the absence of Chairman Hare. Discussion - Fiscal Year 2018 Audit Program Ms. Lori Peddicord, Controller/Treasurer, reviewed a presentation entitled “Auditor’s Responsibility for Communicating with Audit Committee,” dated June 12, 2018. Mr. Polce stated that it was his assumption that the City did compliance audits as well as financial audits and asked what the typical audit requests were. In response, Mrs. Donna Mitchell, City Manager, stated that for the financial audit, the auditors will audit the City for compliance with internal controls and those types of things. She noted, however, that they will not do compliance audits for grant funds or those types of things. Mrs. Mitchell stated that the City does not have a State auditor's office compliance audit. She advised that they will audit any grants that are greater than a certain threshold, which she believes was currently $750,000, and if the City does not exceed that threshold, it will not have an audit. Mrs. Mitchell stated that the City did not have an audit the past couple of years because it did not exceed that threshold, noting that the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) fund is only approximately $300,000. She advised the revolving fund loans are partly federal monies and, due to the size of the loans, the City would see audits in the future. The Committee recommended acceptance of the report. By consent agenda, Mr. Neil moved for approval of the Committee’s recommendation, seconded by Mr. Hare and carried by a unanimous roll call vote. Proposed Amendments to Employee Handbook - City of Dover Personnel Policy, Article VII - Ethical Conduct, Section 6 - Harassment and Discrimination, Section 7 - Acceptable Use of Communications and Computer Systems (New), Section 8 - Social Networking: Personal Online/Internet Content Policy (New), and Section 9 - Pregnant Workers Fairness Act Guidelines (New) Mrs. Kim Hawkins, Director of Human Resources, reviewed the proposed amendments to the Employee Handbook - City of Dover Personnel Policy. She noted that currently Section 6 - Harassment and Discrimination, was limited to one (1) line and, in today’s market and employment field, it really needed to be enhanced tremendously. Mrs. Hawkins stated that the proposed amendments provide very good details of what to do if an employee is experiencing harassment and/or discrimination within the work environment, including who to report it to, what will happen once it's been reported, and the action that will be taken when the

Page 74

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 25, 2018 PAGE 13 investigation is complete. Mrs. Hawkins advised that Section 7 - Acceptable Use of Communications and Computer Systems, was a current City policy that is distributed to all new employees and since she was brining forward other amendments for consideration, she thought it was a good opportunity to include it in the Employee Handbook - City of Dover Personnel Policy. In regard to Section 8 - Social Networking: Personal Online/Internet Content Policy, Mrs. Hawkins explained that this new section was very similar to what is currently implemented for officers by the Police Department. She advised that this section basically states that employees need to make it clear when they are on social websites that their opinions are not the opinions of the City of Dover. She noted that the City is not restricting an employee’s ability to communicate on social media; the City just wants them to differentiate between personal thoughts and those of a City of Dover employee. Mrs. Hawkins informed members that Section 9 - Pregnant Workers Fairness Act Guidelines, is a summary of the State law which was implemented by the State of Delaware in 2014. She noted that this is already in place and adhered to in the City and, like the Social Networking Policy, she thought it was the appropriate time to bring it forward with these additional changes. Staff recommended approval of the proposed amendments. Mr. Sudler, referring to Section 8 - Social Networking: Personal Online/Internet Content Policy, asked what tangible tool the City would use to measure achievement in regard to the required regulation. He asked if there was an example to provide employees of what is and is not acceptable, such as “Before I say anything, please note, for the record, that this is my own personal opinion and not the opinion of the City, although I am in a position with the City.” Responding, Mrs. Hawkins stated that she did not include any examples in Section 8, explaining that it would basically be self-reported or if someone happened to see someone else making inappropriate comments and representing themself as a City of Dover employee, and not clearly identifying that their comments are their own personal opinions, they would need to report it so it could be investigated. Mr. Sudler expressed concern that people having leeway to interpret the policy could lead to possible litigation and suggested the inclusion of a clear and precise example to which everyone could refer. Mr. Slavin stated that he would caution against using examples because then the examples become the only thing that things are measured against; however, he noted that it was Mrs. Hawkins decision as the Human Resources Director. Mr. Anderson thanked Mrs. Hawkins, noting that he thought she had done a superb job with the proposed amendments. He stated that he did not think the amendments went too far on one side or the other, but seemed to bring clarity in modern times, without infringing upon people’s daily lives. Mr. Anderson noted that he had one concern with the word “morale” in subparagraph 3 of the proposed new Section 8. Social Networking: Personal Online/Internet Content Policy. He explained that he thought that “morale” should be removed from the sentence “Could be reasonably interpreted as having an adverse effect upon City morale, discipline, and operation of the agency, safety of staff or perception of the public” because any supervisor could interpret morale any way they want, including constructive criticism or venting

Page 75

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 25, 2018 PAGE 14 on something important. Mr. Anderson noted that a lot of times problems are found early because someone says something that happened in their daily lives; however, people could be afraid to say anything if it’s interpreted that broadly. Mr. Anderson moved to recommend that the proposed new Section 8. Social Networking: Personal Online/Internet Content Policy, subparagraph 3, be amended to strike the word “morale.” The motion was seconded by Mr. Neil. Mr. Neil stated that he thought that morale is subjective and was not sure how it would be interpreted. He noted that he agreed with the rest of the amendments and thought that staff did a marvelous job. The Committee recommended that the proposed new Section 8. Social Networking: Personal Online/Internet Content Policy, subparagraph 3, be amended to strike the word “morale”. The Committee recommended approval of the amendments to the Employee Handbook - City of Dover Personnel Policy, as amended, and with the notation and suggestions from Mr. Sudler. By consent agenda, Mr. Neil moved for approval of the Committee’s recommendation, seconded by Mr. Hare and carried by a unanimous roll call vote. Proposed Amendments to Appendix B - Zoning Mr. David Hugg, Director of Planning and Community Development, advised members that the following three (3) proposed amendments to Appendix B - Zoning of the Dover Code were part of an ongoing effort to address issues as staff works its way through the zoning ordinance and the day-to-day application process. He explained that these text amendments would ultimately be part of one (1) ordinance amendment to make it more efficient in terms of recording the changes. Text Amendment: Creation of IPM3 Zone (Industrial Park Manufacturing - Industrial Aviation and Aeronautics Center)(MI-18-05) Amending Article 3 - District Regulations, (New) Section 20B - Industrial Park Manufacturing Zone - Industrial Aviation and Aeronautics Center (IPM3) and Section 24 - Planned Neighborhood Design Option [(PND)]; Article 4 - Zoning Bulk and Parking Regulations, Section 4.16 - M, IPM Zones; Article 5 - Supplementary Regulations, Section 8 - Performance Standards; and Article 12 - Definitions Mr. David Hugg, Director of Planning and Community Development, reviewed the background regarding the text amendments related to the creation of a new IPM3 Zone (Industrial Park Manufacturing - Industrial Aviation and Aeronautics Center), which is intended primarily to permit businesses in aviation and aeronautics-related industries. The proposed text amendments would also create bulk standards for the new zone and make minor changes to the performance standards to ensure uses in the IPM3 zone are covered under them. Staff recommended adoption of the proposed amendments.

Page 76

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 25, 2018 PAGE 15 Mr. Slavin stated that the date for the public hearing and final action was noted as August 13, 2018; however, it would take place during the Regular Council Meeting on August 27, 2018. The Committee recommended adoption of the proposed amendments, as recommended by staff. By consent agenda, Mr. Neil moved for approval of the Committee’s recommendation, seconded by Mr. Hare and carried by a unanimous roll call vote. (The First Reading of the ordinance will take place during the latter part of the meeting). Text Amendment: Replacement of Maximum Parking Requirement (MI-18-06) Amending Article 4 - Zoning Bulk and Parking Regulations, Section 4.15 - [C-3, C-4, R-C, IO, and CPO Zones.] and Section 4.16 - M, IPM Zones; and Article 6 - Off-Street Parking, Driveways and Loading Facilities, Section 3 - Required Off-Street Parking Spaces Mr. David Hugg, Director of Planning and Community Development, reviewed the background regarding the text amendments related to removing the maximum parking requirement. The proposed text amendments would remove the maximum parking space limitation given in Article 6 of the Zoning Ordinance, and replace it with new maximum lot coverage limitations for several zones where excessive parking lot size is of particular concern, including the C-3, C-4, RC, IPM, IPM-2, and M Zones, which would limit the amount of impervious surface on the property. Mr. Hugg advised members that these proposed amendments had been discussed with the development community and they like it because it gives them the flexibility to work with a broader standard. Staff recommended adoption of the proposed amendments. Mr. Slavin stated that the date for the public hearing and final action was noted as August 13, 2018; however, it would take place during the Regular Council Meeting on August 27, 2018. The Committee recommended adoption of the proposed amendments, as recommended by staff. By consent agenda, Mr. Neil moved for approval of the Committee’s recommendation, seconded by Mr. Hare and carried by a unanimous roll call vote. (The First Reading of the ordinance will take place during the latter part of the meeting). Text Amendment: Vehicle Signs (MI-18-07) Amending Article 5 - Supplementary Regulations, Section 4 - Supplementary Sign Regulations Mr. David Hugg, Director of Planning and Community Development, reviewed the background regarding the text amendments related to vehicle signs. The proposed text amendment would give the city planner guidance on whether or not a vehicle sign is permitted. Under current Code, vehicle signs are always permitted except where the vehicle is inoperable or being used for the sole purpose of signage and the

Page 77

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 25, 2018 PAGE 16 proposed amendments provide a list of criteria which the city planner may use to determine if a vehicle is being used for the sole purpose of signage. Staff recommended adoption of the proposed amendments. Mr. Slavin stated that the date for the public hearing and final action was noted as August 13, 2018; however, it would take place during the Regular Council Meeting on August 27, 2018. Mr. Sudler asked if there is a time frame that a vehicle can be parked or a time tracking system. Responding, Mrs. Dawn Melson-Williams, Principal Planner, explained that staff looked at some examples and line 529 of the proposed text amendments provides a series of criteria, which includes references to time, for example, what is happening with the vehicle during normal business hours, and whether it is regularly parked there. She advised that it does not include a specific number of days or time frame because the series of criteria are what the city planner would look to, to make a decision about whether or not it's being solely used as a sign, and not having other functions such as delivery, etc. Mr. Sudler suggested that a time track would add clarity. Mr. Anderson expressed concern regarding these text amendments, explaining that the 2012 amendments had addressed complaints from businesses regarding the City’s sign regulations. He advised members that one of the intentions of the 2012 amendments to the sign ordinance was to ensure that people could promote their businesses by allowing them to park vehicles where they can be seen, when the vehicles are legitimately used for business deliveries and sales crew. Mr. Anderson noted that it is not okay to put a sign on vehicle that is up on blocks, unregistered, or inoperable, because then it is not legitimately being used for the business. He expressed concern that these amendments may, inadvertently, be reversing the previous amendments, noting that a lot of businesses, particularly small businesses, had benefitted from not having to worry about where to park their vehicles when they are trying to operate their businesses. Mr. Anderson expressed concern that the proposed amendments did not specify how many of the criteria are to be used, which could be confusing. He stated that he was particularly concerned with lines 539-541 of the proposed text amendments, noting that he thought that any vehicle that is wrapped would meet this criteria. Mr. Anderson asked Mr. Hugg to explain the criteria and where a wrapped vehicle would fit it. Responding to Mr. Anderson, Mr. Hugg stated that he could go back and look at what happened in 2012 and why the particular language was stricken. He explained that the intent of the proposed text amendments was not to prohibit someone who has a legitimate business use of a vehicle with a sign on it from parking in front of their business or legally parking anywhere. Mr. Hugg indicated that the intent is to address vehicles that are used solely for signage, explaining that there are several businesses in the area which are currently using vehicles for permanent directional

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 25, 2018 PAGE 17 signage. He advised that part of the problem is that many business owners do not have the luxury of being able to park a vehicle in front of their business, so they have to go through a very rigorous process to get business signs, while their neighbor can essentially beat the system because they are able to park a vehicle out by the road. Mr. Hugg stated that staff has tried to introduce judgment back into the ordinance in regard to when a vehicle is clearly being used for signage and when it’s being used for business purposes. Mr. Anderson stated that he had definite concerns regarding lines 539-541 of the proposed text amendments, especially when combined with lines 536-538, which state that “...it is not necessary that any one of or all the listed criteria be present to determine that the vehicle is inoperable or being used for the sole purpose of displaying signage.” He asked for an explanation to alleviate his concerns. Mr. Sudler noted that a great example of a stationary vehicle used to promote a business was the large vehicle at Mission BBQ, which is rarely moved and he had observed parked on the grass several times and reported. He expressed concern that when staff begins implementing these changes, other agencies may begin to scrutinize how strict staff’s enforcement with Mission BBQ has been. Mr. Sudler cautioned staff to make sure that the ordinance is enforced across the board. Responding, Mr. Hugg noted that a local Mexican restaurant has a large truck that is used as a sign and never moves, whereas Mission BBQ’s vehicle is at least a type of utility vehicle. He explained that staff can issue a citation for a violation for vehicles that are parked on the grass, regardless of signage. Mr. Hugg explained that currently there were more than eight (8) businesses that he was aware of that were using vehicles for signage and there is not a good mechanism for staff to make an argument that they are being used solely for signage, unless the vehicle is clearly inoperable. Mr. Sudler noted that he had seen the Mission BBQ vehicle move and knew that they used it because he had seen it smoking. Likewise, he stated that the Mexican restaurant uses their vehicle for catering and is sometimes parked around the back of the business. Mr. Sudler explained that the bottom line was that the City needed to develop a concrete example to use across the board, so that individuals won’t feel like they’re targeted or unfairly treated. In response to Mr. Neil, Mr. Hugg advised that Kent County Tourism’s vehicle called “The Villager” falls into a grey area. He explained that if it’s routinely moved or used for some ongoing business purpose and not simply parked and left in the same position, it would be allowable under these changes, however, it is one that could arguably be considered a vehicle sign. Mr. Shevock asked how it would be handled if Mission BBQ were to somehow lift their vehicle on top of their building. Responding, Mr. Hugg advised that this would not fall under these provisions because it would be considered a sign at that point, which may or may not be permitted under the City’s sign ordinance. He explained

Page 79

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 25, 2018 PAGE 18 that there are provisions regarding the size of signs, how they can be placed, the number that can be on a building, etc. Mr. Hugg stated that he did not think that the City would want to start allowing businesses to place vehicles on top of buildings, which would create problems like he had seen in other parts of the country. Mr. Anderson reiterated his concerns regarding the proposed text amendments, noting that he believes business is good and being able to promote a business is a good thing. He indicated that he thought that there were a number of areas of code enforcement that the City was behind on, however, he did not think this was an area that members needed to address to make the City better and more livable. Mr. Anderson stated that businesses being able to prosper is a social benefit to the City. He noted that part of the intent of the 2012 changes to the sign ordinance was that staff would not be able to enforce it, except in extreme circumstances, and he was happy to hear that the intent was being reached. Mr. Anderson stated that he thought that many business owners and churches in the City would have legitimate concerns with these proposed amendments. Mr. Sudler stated that he agreed with Mr. Anderson that the City is open for business; however, he explained that he did not think that the proposed amendments would take the City backward. Mr. Sudler stated that he is a firm believer in regulations and he thinks this is a good way to do it because a lot of the vehicles on the highway can obstruct the vision of someone turning, which could create a traffic issue. Mr. Neil noted that the ordinance was not being written in granite and, depending on the public reaction, members can always go back and revisit it again. Mr. Lindell echoed the sentiments of Mr. Sudler and Mr. Neil. He stated that he thought that there was an obvious issue which the Planning Department was trying to address. Mr. Lindell noted that Council still had time to review and make adjustments to these proposed amendments prior to adoption of the ordinance and, even if Council adopts them, changes can be made if issues and complaints arise. He explained that his is the process of governing, you see an issue, you try to deal with it, if other issues arise from that, you deal with them as they come. The Committee recommended adoption of the proposed amendments, as recommended by staff. By consent agenda, Mr. Neil moved for approval of the Committee’s recommendation, seconded by Mr. Hare and carried by a unanimous roll call vote. (The First Reading of the ordinance will take place during the latter part of the meeting). COUNCIL COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE (All Members of All Committees) The Council Committee of the Whole met with Council President Slavin presiding.

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 25, 2018 PAGE 19 Update on 2019 Comprehensive Plan Project Mr. David Hugg, Director of Planning and Community Development, and Mrs. Dawn Melson-Williams, Principal Planner, reviewed a presentation entitled “City of Dover, Delaware, 2019 Comprehensive Plan, Project Update June 2018.” Members were provided with a copy of the City of Dover 2019Comprehensive Plan Survey available at https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/2YPJPV2. In addition to the survey, members were asked to complete an evaluation of the implementation of the 2008 Comprehensive Plan using the charts entitled “Evaluation of 2008 Goals and Recommendations.” Mr. Sudler noted that there were constituents on Queen Street who were interested in the comprehensive development plan for that area. He noted that there is housing for the local institutions, including Wesley College or Delaware State University, etc., and the owners of property in the area around 101 North Queen Street asked him to look into the comprehensive objectives for that area. Responding, Mr. Hugg stated that he would be glad to review this information with Mr. Sudler. Mr. Hugg noted that he had failed to mention that staff had identified five (5) target zones downtown in which major activities may take place, one (1) of which he is referring to as the new neighborhoods, which are basically located in the general area north and south of Division Street, where the City is working with the National Council on Agricultural Life and Labor Research Fund, Inc. (NCALL), Habitat for Humanity, and Restoring Central Dover. He indicated that they would welcome the opportunity to share what they are thinking and to receive input from these property owners as well. Mr. Sudler stated that they really want to know what the City is planning so they can tailor their plans around that and know what is and isn’t permissible. He noted that he would contact Mr. Hugg to schedule a meeting. Mr. Polce noted that the data is critically important to this process. He expressed concern that the survey would be collecting non-identifiable data, since this would increase the probability for duplication of survey responses. Mr. Polce cautioned against dispersing the survey using Survey Monkey and in paper format because it would dilute the data and have an impact on what staff hopes to achieve. Referring to the survey questions, Mr. Polce noted that there were some inconsistencies with the way the questions were framed that could inherently have biases. He indicated that everyone must be mindful on how data influences their decisions as policy makers and stake holders, and encouraged them to take another look at what data they’re trying to collect, how they’re collecting it and how it’s going to shape the proposal. In response, Mr. Hugg explained that they were using the same survey that had been used in 2003 and 2008 to ascertain if there are any trends. He noted that he is not a great believer in open ended surveys but hopefully they will provide reaffirmation or indicate a change regarding the top ten issues. Mr. Anderson noted that many other municipalities similar in size to Dover bring in firms to help complete their comprehensive plans and asked if the City was doing it all in-house. Responding, Mr. Hugg stated that the City had purchased the professional version of Survey Monkey, which provided a lot of opportunities and had some assistance from Strongpoint Marketing; however, the majority of the work

Page 81

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 25, 2018 PAGE 20 was being done in-house. He explained that the City already has a good plan, so they can take the time to refine it, instead of reinventing the wheel. Mr. Hugg indicated that the five (5) staff members in the Planning Department ought to know enough about the community or people who they can ask about the community to complete the project in-house, so paying someone from outside the City would not be the right way to go. Mr. Anderson suggested, from a marketing point of view, that the City may want to consider moving away from using the word “target” and instead using a term like dream or dreaming zones. He noted that this was one of the more frequent statements he had heard in the neighborhoods. Mr. Hugg expressed his thanks to the staff involved in the Comprehensive Plan project, noting that they are a great group. Mr. Slavin reminded all Council and civilian Committee members of the mandatory ethics training being held on June 26, 2018 at 5:00 p.m. Mr. Sudler moved for acceptance of the Council Committee of the Whole Report, seconded by Mr. Cole and unanimously carried.

She also talked about their project called "Restoring Central Dover", which is a community development project focusing on revitalizing Dover's Central Core. Part of this project is to build affordable housing for "First Time Home Buyers". With this being a new project, the organization has closed on two homes this past year and is nearing the end of construction on others. The organization recently purchased these nine (9) properties to really make an impact on the community. Ms. Kelleher told the board that the City of Dover has been very supportive, she also mentioned that the "Restoring Central Dover" has been used as a basis for the City's DDD application.

Page 84

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 25, 2018 PAGE 23 BACKGROUND AND ANALYSIS This property was originally owned by Kent County Prevention Cruelty Animals; sold to a private owner in 2012. It was tax exempt until the July 2012 billing. It has been purchased by Brandywine Valley SPCA Inc. in May 2018. RECOMMENDED ACTION: Recommend that the request for exemption be reviewed. Laura Page, Community Engagement Manager for the organization was present for the hearing. She started the hearing by going over the history of the organization, which has been around for almost 90 years, operation in Pennsylvania. The organization is currently providing pet care for at risk families in Pennsylvania as well as the whole state of Delaware. Ms. Page explained that there currently is a charge for boarding if an animal is retained by the organization which is the reason they purchased this property, so pets may be held there until their owners can pick them up. The organization has received a grant in the amount of $300,000 to help with renovations. The organization also helps families who struggle to feed their pets with free pet food, pet items such as cat litter as well as free vet care. Ms. Page told the board that the organization recently had a free vaccination clinic on The Green in Dover, because they did not have a facility in the area, at which time, approximately 1,600 pets where vaccinated. The organization also offers free or low-cost spay and neuter services to low income families. Chairman Garfinkel asked the Assessor what the City's position is, she replied that the city has no position other than that this property had been exempt in the past. Mr. Galvin asked how many animals the facility was going to be able to hold? Ms. Page said, that she would not be able to tell until the necessary renovation had been made. Mr. Burns made the motion to approve the exemption, which was seconded by Mr. Galvin. Motion carried 4-0. By consent agenda, Mr. Neil moved for approval of the Board’s recommendation, seconded by Mr. Hare and carried by a unanimous roll call vote.

Page 85

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 25, 2018 PAGE 24 No information was provided during the 2017 Exempt Audit. Pilgrim Holiness Church did not respond to our requests. This property was Exempt prior to the audit. When the bills were sent out this year, we were notified that this should in fact be under Church of Christ. Kent County Assessment did some research and informed us that they made the name change to Dover Church of Christ. RECOMMENDED ACTION: Recommend that the request for exemption be reviewed. No one was present for the hearing. Therefore, the board waited a while to discuss the exempt request. After it was apparent that nobody from the organization would show, the board proceeded to discuss the request. The Assessor went over the background and analysis. Mr. Stonesifer asked if the property was exempt with Kent County, Mrs. Bundek told him that it was. Chairman Garfinkel asked if notification had been mailed to the church. Mrs. Bundek explained that a notification letter had been mailed via Certified Mail - Return Receipt Requested but had not been signed for. She told the board that the letter was returned to the office. She also mentioned that an email was sent to the minister of the church informing him of the date and time of the meeting. Chairman Garfinkel pointed out that there seems to be a pattern, because nobody responded to the letters mailed during the 2016 Exempt Audit. Mrs. Bundek explained that the owner of record at that time was Pilgrim Holiness Church and that the minister told her during a visit to the office, that he did not open those letters because they were not addressed to him. Mr. Burns asked if the property had been exempted in the past, which it had been up until the 2016 Audit. Mr. Stonesifer asked if the taxes had been paid. Mrs. Bundek told him that they are not paid yet, because the church is waiting for the outcome of the hearing. Chairman Garfinkel suggested to deny the exempt request, because nobody from the church was present for the hearing. He suggested to wait for the church to appeal to Council. Mr. Stonesifer disagreed, he felt the board had information to discuss and should make a ruling on this. The Deputy City Solicitor pointed out that the property should be exempt, because it falls within the Delaware Code.

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 25, 2018 PAGE 26 RECOMMENDED ACTION: Recommend that the request for exemption be reviewed. Present were: Bill Manning, Attorney; Heather O'Connell, Vice President and CFO; Christian Trowbridge, General Council; and Andy Lugan, responsible for everything Real Estate. Mr. Manning told the City that the University had been exempt from taxes since 2006. He mentioned that in 2016 the University received paperwork from the City of Dover regarding an exempt audit. The paperwork was filled out and returned as requested by the City. Mr. Manning was wondering if it was something in the questionnaire, which prompted the board to request a hearing with the University. Chairman Garfinkel asked if any of the buildings on the campus were not used for educational purposes. Mr. Manning explained that there are three (3) buildings on the property, one of those buildings is used for storage and that the other two are used for classes. He also mentioned that the University does rent some rooms to other non-profit organizations for educational purposes only. He offered to provide information regarding the organizations who rented, when and how much they paid in rental fees. Chairman Garfinkel asked if the Assessor had any questions, she had none. Mr. Pepper, Esq. was asked if he had any comments, at which time he told the board that the University is clearly entitled to the exemption. Mr. Stonesifer made the motion no action be taken, which was seconded by Mr. Galvin. Motion carried 4-0. By consent agenda, Mr. Neil moved for approval of the Board’s recommendation, seconded by Mr. Hare and carried by a unanimous roll call vote.

Page 88

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 25, 2018 PAGE 27 RECOMMENDED ACTION: Recommend that the request for exemption be reviewed. Leon Battle, Chairman of the Trustee Board, was present. Chairman Garfinkel asked what the property was used for. Mr. Battle told the board that the congregation bought this piece of land to build a new church. Mr. Burns asked if construction would begin soon? Mr. Battle explained that construction would not start for a couple more years, because the church is still raising money. Chairman Garfinkel asked if the church was renting the property to a farmer for farming. Mr. Battle told the board that the land has been rented to the farmer they purchased it from until last year. Mr. Burns wanted to know if the congregation currently owns a church. Mr. Battle told him that their current church is located on Queen Street. Mr. Burns was questioning why a small church would buy a 76-acre lot to build a church they have no money for? Mr. Galvin pointed out that this piece of land is zoned R10. Mr. Battle told the board that the church did attempt to start building on the lot approximately ten (10) years ago but could not start because the loan did not go through. Mr. Galvin went over the permits listed on the property record card, verifying that an attempt had been made. Mr. Burns asked the city solicitor about his opinion. Mr. Pepper, Esq. explained that the property is currently not held by way of investment. He pointed out that the cost for a $4,000,000 church would be quite substantial. Chairman Garfinkel asked Mr. Pepper Esq. if the property should be exempt if the church is not using it for income property. In Chairman Garfinkel's opinion the church should keep record of when the land is farmed by the farmer and how much was paid in rental fees.

Page 89

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 25, 2018 PAGE 28 Mr. Pepper Esq. told the board that the property cannot be used for profit, but the income from the farming could be used to help maintain the land, because the property is located within the City of Dover city limits and would be subject to the City's maintenance code and would be required to be cut up to 4-5 times a year, which could be quite substantial for a lot that size. Mr. Burns asked Mr. Pepper Esq., if the property was not held by way of investment and is owned by a church it should be exempt. Mr. Pepper replied with a yes. Mr. Burns asked Mr. Battle if it was the intent of the church to raise money to build a new church, he also pointed out the that the congregation has 2 pieces of collateral one being the vacant land the other one the Church on Queen Street. Mr. Battle told the board that they are still in the process of raising money. Mr. Burns made the motion to continue the exemption which was seconded by Mr. Stonesifer. By consent agenda, Mr. Neil moved for approval of the Board’s recommendation, seconded by Mr. Hare and carried by a unanimous roll call vote. Mrs. Bundek informed the appellant, that the City Council has the final decision and that a certified letter with the date of the Council Hearing would be mailed. Delaware State University Location Exempt Request 1200 N DuPont Hwy (portion) $235,893,000 (portion) BACKGROUND AND ANALYSIS It was requested by some members of Council to verify the exemption status. RECOMMENDED ACTION: Recommend that the request for exemption be reviewed. Robert Shrove, Vice President and Denese Lindsey AVP for Finance Ms. Lindsey explained that the property in question is part of the University's tillable land, which is used for overflow parking for some of the University's major events such as graduations and football games. The lot is also used twice a year for race parking, plus tent sales for one of the car dealerships in the City of Dover. The money raised at these events is used for the University's scholarship program. Mr. Pepper asked for Ms. Lindsey to elaborate on the acreage required for the tillable land. Ms. Lindsey did not have specific numbers with her but did let the Board know of other tillable pieces of land owned by the University.

Page 90

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 25, 2018 PAGE 29 When asked by Mr. Pepper how long it has been since this piece of land has been tilled, Ms. Lindsey explained that it has been approximately 15 year and went on by explaining that the field is also used by the Field and Track team. Mr. Burns asked if the IRS from 990 would show how much income this property generated in 2017. Ms. Lindsey told him that it does. Mr. Burns asked if the School had any plans on developing this land. Ms. Lindsey told him that the school had thought about it a few years ago, but never did anything with it. Mr. Galvin asked if the decision not to build on this land was because the University was required to have so many acres of tillable land. Ms. Lindsey was not sure what the reason was. Chairman Garfinkel asked if there is a requirement as to how many acres tillable land the school owns, Ms. Lindsay said that there was, but she did not know how many acres that would be. She offered to get that number to the board. Mr. Burns asked if only the net income of the proceeds from the lot are going to the Foundation and are they documented. Ms. Lindsey told the Board that these numbers are documented and offered to provide the documents to the board. Mr. Burns wanted to make sure that this property is used for the benefit of the students and not just used as income producing property. Mr. Galvin asked if there is a written agreement, Ms. Lindsey explained that this is a practice and a written procedure. Mr. Burns asked if the parking for Dover Downs and the tent sale for the car dealership were long term. Ms. Lindsey told the board that they are not and that in fact the revenue generated from the race parking has been going down substantially in the last few years. Mr. Burns made the motion to maintain the exemption which was seconded by Mr. Stonesifer. Motion carried 4-0. By consent agenda, Mr. Neil moved for approval of the Board’s recommendation, seconded by Mr. Hare and carried by a unanimous roll call vote. Chairman Garfinkel asked if a copy of the procedures could be emailed to the Assessor's office. Mrs. Bundek informed the appellant, that the City Council has the final decision and that a certified letter with the date of the Council Hearing would be mailed.

By order of the City Council of the City of Dover, Delaware." 11. The Mayor, Controller/Treasurer and Clerk of Council are hereby authorized and directed to take all action deemed by them as necessary and appropriate to carry out the intent of this resolution. 12. This resolution shall take effect immediately upon its passage and approval by the Mayor. ADOPTED: JUNE 25, 2018 APPOINTMENT RECOMMENDED BY COUNCIL PRESIDENT SLAVIN - DANA T. SHELTON - SAFETY ADVISORY AND TRANSPORTATION COMMITTEE - ONE-YEAR TERM TO EXPIRE MAY 2019 Council President Slavin recommended the appointment of Mr. Dana T. Shelton to serve on the Safety Advisory and Transportation Committee for a one-year term to expire May 2019. By consent agenda, Mr. Neil moved for approval of the appointment of Mr. Shelton, as recommended by Council President Slavin. The motion was seconded by Mr. Hare and carried by a unanimous roll call vote. FIRST READING - PROPOSED ORDINANCE #2018-06 - ZONING TEXT AMENDMENTS Council President Slavin reminded the public that copies of the proposed ordinance were available at the entrance of the Council Chambers, on the City’s website at www.cityofdover.com under “Government,” or by contacting the City Clerk’s Office at 736-7008 or cityclerk@dover.de.us. Since the ordinance amends the Zoning Code, a public hearing is required. Staff recommended referral of the amendments to the Planning Commission on July 16, 2018 and that a public hearing be set for the Council Meeting of August 27, 2018 at 7:30 p.m., at which time final action by Council will take place. Mr. David Hugg, Director of Planning and Community Development, advised that the amendments were being proposed in an effort to streamline and improve the ordinance by addressing uses that are not regulated or permitted and to clarify instances where confusion or other issues result in a lot of waivers. He noted that the amendments would create an IPM3 zoning district which would provide for aviation and aeronautic uses as the primary use and would apply to portions or all of the existing park at the end of Horsepond Road that abuts the Dover Air Force Base and includes the civil air terminal and the Kent County Aeropark. Mr. Hugg advised that the amendments would address vehicle signage and some lack of clarity relating to the term of “solely used for advertising purposes”. This amendment would include

Page 94

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 25, 2018 PAGE 33 criteria that would allow the City Planner to make a determination about when a vehicle with a sign painted on it is actually being used as a sign, as opposed to a vehicle engaged in business or trade. Mr. Hugg stated that the amendments would eliminate the current 125% maximum parking provision that, in practice, has proved to be an unreasonable restriction on certain kinds of uses. He noted that good examples are doctors' offices, restaurants, banks, and uses that have a high peak for parking demand and for which 125% of the space allowance may not be adequate. Mr. Hugg noted that staff would substitute a land coverage calculation related to how much the property could be used totally for buildings and parking as an alternative. He advised that this issue was brought to his attention previously by the development community and it has been the subject of a number of waivers granted by the Planning Commission in order to allow those uses to be located in Dover. Mr. Lewis moved to refer the amendments to the Planning Commission on July 16, 2018 and to set a public hearing before City Council for August 27, 2018 at 7:30 p.m., as recommended by staff. The motion was seconded by Mr. Neil and unanimously carried. In accordance with Section 1-9 of the Dover Code, Council acknowledged the First Reading of the Zoning Ordinance Amendments as read by the City Clerk, by title only, as follows: PROPOSED ORDINANCE #2018-06 AMENDING APPENDIX B - ZONING, ARTICLE 3 - DISTRICT REGULATIONS; ARTICLE 4 - ZONING BULK AND PARKING REGULATIONS, ARTICLE 5, SUPPLEMENTARY REGULATIONS, ARTICLE 6 - OFF-STREET PARKING, DRIVEWAYS AND LOADING FACILITIES, AND ARTICLE 12 - DEFINITIONS (Legislative, Finance, and Administration Committee) FINAL READING - PROPOSED ORDINANCE #2018-05 The First Reading of the Proposed Ordinance was accomplished during the Council Meeting of June 11, 2018. 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. Neil moved that the Final Reading of the proposed ordinance be acknowledged by title only, seconded by Mr. Lewis and unanimously carried. Mrs. Donna Mitchell, City Manager, advised that the amount for plant operations (line number 456) was reduced by $236,000 in the Final Reading. She noted that the reduction was attributed to some personnel changes in the plant budget. Noting that there had been revisions to the State’s budget regarding streets, Mr. Anderson requested Mrs. Mitchell to explain how that would impact the City. Responding, Mrs. Mitchell advised that it appears that the Municipal Street Aid (MSA) may be increased and, if so, the City should receive more MSA than what was budgeted for. She noted that if additional MSA were received, a budget amendment would be presented to City Council. Mrs. Mitchell advised that her current plan would be to apply those funds toward the street program. By motion of Mr. Neil, seconded by Mr. Hare, Council, by a unanimous roll call vote, adopted Ordinance #2018-05 (Exhibit #1).

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 25, 2018 PAGE 34 CITY MANAGER'S ANNOUNCEMENTS Mrs. Donna Mitchell, City Manager, announced that phase one of the installation of the LED lights, has been implemented and she encouraged members to go by and see them. She noted that she had received positive comments from the Police Department regarding the improvement in the lights. Mrs. Mitchell thanked staff for their hours of dedicated service during the Firefly Music Festival. She noted that the Police, Public Works, Emergency Management, and Planning and Inspections staff put in a lot of hours, did a great job, and were a real help. Mrs. Mitchell reminded members of the upcoming Fourth of July celebration. COUNCIL MEMBERS' ANNOUNCEMENTS Council President Slavin announced that mandatory ethics training would be held the following night in the Council Chambers. He also wished Councilman Hare a happy birthday on July 6th. Mr. Neil advised that he and Mr. Cole have asked for comments from the residents of the Third District regarding the Firefly Music Festival and that he would provide a written report to both the City Manager and the Director of Planning and Community Development when the report is compiled. He noted that the residents of Wild Meadows recognize the economic benefit of the festival to both the City and the State and they recognize the efforts that Red Frog and Dover Motorsports have made to make it as comfortable for them as possible. Mr. Anderson reminded the public that every 10 years the City of Dover updates its Comprehensive Plan and there is currently a survey available to gather input from those who live, work, worship, or learn in the City. Responding to Mr. Anderson, Mr. David Hugg, Director of Planning and Community Development, advised that staff was in the middle of the research and data collection activities associated with the Comprehensive Plan. He noted that they are repeating the survey technique that was utilized in 2003 and 2008. Mr. Hugg advised that they had received over 100 responses from a wide range of ages, incomes, residents, and non-residents. He noted that the survey was available online and at City Hall, the Library, Weyandt Hall, and the Pitts Center. He requested members to encourage their neighbors and friends to take the opportunity to fill out the survey, noting that it is one way to get an idea of what the expectations and needs and desires of the residents of the City of Dover are as they look 10 years in the future. Mr. Neil moved for adjournment, seconded by Mr. Hare and unanimously carried. Meeting adjourned at 7:54 p.m. TRACI A. McDOWELL CITY CLERK

AX-18-01 Lands of Jesse L. Allen at 3074 N. DuPont Highway Planning Commission Report from June 18, 2018 Page 2 of 7 within 600 feet of the property to the east. It appears as though the property may be served by a private well an on-site septic. These amenities should be evaluated by the applicant in conjunction with DNREC to determine the Water and Sanitary Sewer needs for the property. 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 applicant should coordinate with the City, DNREC and DelDOT to ensure their ultimate goal can be obtained and to determine the best path forward. Planning Commission The applicant was present at the meeting. Following a public Recommendation: hearing on June 18, 2018, where one member of the public spoke regarding the proposed annexation and rezoing, the Planning Commission voted in favor of the annexation with the proposed C-4 zoning with seven (7) votes in favor and no votes in opposition (two members absent). Summary This application is for the annexation and rezoning of property 3074 N. DuPont Highway, Dover. It is a parcel of land totaling 0.69 acres +/-. The owner of record is Jesse L. Allen. Tax Parcel: ED-00-057.02-01-04.00-000. It is noted that there are some records that reference the subject property by the address of 1643 N. DuPont Highway. These records included the City’s Customer Service file for Electric services. Existing Property The property is located on the east side of North DuPont Highway and north of but not adjacent to Woodford 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-and-half story building likely constructed in the 1960s as a residence. The property is currently zoned BG (General Business District) in Kent County. The building most recently was utilized as offices; however, it is current vacant. There is an asphalt paved area between the building and the highway spanning most of the length of the street frontage. There is no designated curbed entrance to the site and no sidewalk system along the street 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: to the south the

DuPont Highway Planning Commission Report from June 18, 2018 Page 3 of 7 WAWA at the intersection with Rustic Lane and to the north 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) C-2 (Central Commercial)

Page 131

AX-18-01 Lands of Jesse L. Allen at 3074 N. DuPont Highway Planning Commission Report from June 18, 2018 Page 6 of 7 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 applicant, Mr. Jesse Allen, was present at the Planning Commission meeting to represent his request. Following a public hearing on June 18, 2018, where a member 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 (Highway Commercial Zone) with seven (7) votes in favor and no votes in opposition (two members absent). Discussion of the Application by the Planning Commission included questions on water and sanitary sewer availability, utility service providers, responsibility for costs of service connections, impact on adjacent properties, and continue use of existing well and septic. See the included Excerpt of the DRAFT Meeting Minutes of the June 18, 2018 Planning Commission meeting. Submission of Plan of Services As required by 22 Delaware Code §101, a Plan of Services was submitted to the Office of State Planning Coordination. A Letter of Conformation and acceptance of the Plan of Services was received June 19, 2018 (Plan of Services Reference #2018-09). Attached is the copy of the basic submission form and acceptance letter. A copy of the full Plan of Services submission with attachments is on file with the Planning Office. ADVISORY COMMENTS TO THE APPLICANT 1) From the agency comments received, it appears that ability to provide City water and sanitary sewer service to this property may be challenging due to the location of existing City infrastructure in the area. The applicant is encouraged to discuss service options with the Department of Public Works, other utility providers, DNREC, and DelDOT. 2) Upon annexation into the City of Dover, the property will be subject to the provisions of the Dover Code of Ordinances. This includes procedures such as review processes for plans and permits for construction activities, the City of Dover Business Licenses, etc. 3) Prior to establishing any use or commencing with any construction on the subject property, including within the existing buildings, the applicant shall contact the Planning Office so that the appropriate review process can be determined and coordinated with other reviewing entities including the Fire Marshal’s Office, Public Works/Utilities, and the Chief Building Inspector. 4) The applicant shall be aware that approval of any Annexation & Rezoning application does not represent Site Development Plan or Record Plan approval. A separate Site Development Plan must be submitted and approved if development activities are proposed to establish a use on the property. A separate Record Plan must be submitted and approved if changes to existing property lines are proposed.

As per the Petition to Annex and Rezone Property, as heard by the Council Committee of the Whole, June 12, 2018, please find the following: a. 3074 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. City of Dover Water and Sanitary Sewer are available on the west side of Route 13. While they are within 200 feet of the property, installation of services would be costly and require DelDOT approval. It should be noted that Water and Sanitary Sewer are also available through Tidewater within 600 feet of the property to the east. It appears as though the property may be served by a private well and on-site septic. These amenities should be evaluated by the applicant in conjunction with DNREC to determine the Water and Sanitary Sewer needs for the property. 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 applicant should coordinate with the City, DNREC and DelDOT to ensure their ultimate goal can be obtained and to determine the best path forward.

CITY OF DOVER PLANNING COMMISSION June 18, 2018 Excerpt from Meeting Minutes – Draft The Regular Meeting of the City of Dover Planning Commission was held on Monday, June 18, 2018 at 7:00 PM in the City Hall Council Chambers with Chairman Mr. Tolbert presiding. Members present were Mr. Roach, Mr. Holt, Mr. Baldwin, Dr. Jones, Mrs. Welsh, Ms. Maucher and Mr. Tolbert. Mr. Holden and Ms. Edwards were absent. Staff members present were Mr. Dave Hugg, Mrs. Dawn Melson-Williams, Mr. Jason Lyon, Mr. Julian Swierczek, and Mrs. Kristen Mullaney. AX-18-01 Lands of Jesse L. Allen at 3074 N. DuPont Highway – Public Hearing and Review for Recommendation of an Annexation Request and Rezoning Request for a parcel of land totaling 0.69 acres +/- located at 3074 N. DuPont Highway. The property is currently zoned BG (General Business District) 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 north of but not adjacent to Woodford Street. 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 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 record is Jesse L. Allen. Property Address: 3074 N. DuPont Highway. Tax Parcel: ED-00-057.02-01-04.00-000. Proposed Council District 3. Ordinance #2018-04. Representatives: Mr. Jesse Allen, Owner Mrs. Melson-Williams stated that this is a request for annexation into the City of Dover. First, with any annexation they have to look to the City’s Comprehensive Plan. In looking at the Comprehensive Plan in reference to the property at 3074 North DuPont Highway, they find that it is in a dark green area which is a Category One - High Priority Annexation Area. It is areas that are anticipated to be annexed into the City within a reasonable timeframe. They are areas that are ultimately surrounded by areas that are in the City. This is one parcel in what is a much larger area that is currently surrounded by the City on the northern part of Route 13. Moving on to the second map that they always have to look at with the Comprehensive Plan, they have to look at what the Comprehensive Plan envisions for future land use activities on a particular property proposed for annexation. In this case, this map found in the Comprehensive Plan identifies the land use classification as commercial. With that land use classification of commercial, Staff then looks at what is a matrix of different types of zoning that could be placed on the property. In considering the rezoning of the property to a City of Dover zoning classification, they have to look at compliance with the table and map of the Plan as well as the general character of the surrounding area such as other adjacent land uses. This property is located on the east side of DuPont Highway, basically across the street from the Dover Town Center. The areas on the west side of Route 13 are in the City and with this annexation; it would then be connected across Route 13 to properties already in the City thus making it contiguous. The surrounding land uses in the area are focused on commercial. Its Excerpt of Planning Commission Meeting of June 18, 2018 Page 1 of 6

Page 143

neighbors on the east side of Route 13 include a variety of different commercial uses. Further to the east is a residential area that is currently located in Kent County. This property currently has a zoning classification of BG (General Business Zone) in the County and is seeking the C-4 (Highway Commercial Zone) zoning classification in the City of Dover. C-4 (Highway Commercial Zone) is one of our higher intensity commercial zones allowing for a variety of retail and service industry type functions. Our report actually lists all of those uses that are permitted in the C-4 (Highway Commercial Zone). As part of this process, the utility availability is looked at. The City of Dover is actually the service provider for electric for this location. The property is currently not served by City water and sanitary sewer. In the case of water and sanitary sewer, the closest City services are actually on the west side of Route 13; however, installation of those services to cross Route 13 is challenging at best because of crossing Route 13 in the corridor and needing DelDOT approval. There are some City utility services on the east side of Route 13; however, they are not in that close of proximity to this particular location. Coming out of that, there are certainly some recommendations and additional discussions because of the challenges presented with water and sanitary sewer service provisions. Additional discussions would need to occur with the applicant as well as with the City’s Public Works Office and potentially other utility providers. There is a utility provider, Tidewater in the general area. Also, utility services may mean with interaction with State agencies like DNREC and DelDOT. The recommendation of Planning Staff is for annexation of the property, finding that the Comprehensive Plan supports annexation; it is a Category 1 area. The potential zoning classification of C-4 (Highway Commercial Zone) is consistent with development in the general area and again consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. The Development Advisory Committee Report includes the comments from the typical agencies. There are a series of advisory comments that really focus on once the property is in the City. There are a number of City processes and procedures relating to permitting and licensing that they would have to go through to either use the existing building or if they were thinking of any kind of redevelopment to place a new use there. Tonight, the Planning Commission is charged with looking at what is the appropriate zoning classification for this property that is seeking annexation into the City of Dover. They have made the request for C-4 (Highway Commercial Zone). The Planning Commission will be making a recommendation that will be forwarded to City Council. Mr. Holt stated that it looks like there is some major stuff that needs to be done with the highway in order to get water and sewer over to this property and that could cost a lot of money. Who is going to bare that expense? Would the City do that or would the new property owner handle that? Responding to Mr. Holt, Mr. Lyon stated that the standard response is that the developer is responsible to bare all costs for new development. They have seen preliminary estimates. This would need to be bored across Route 13 so that they are not opening the road up. Preliminary costs are fairly expensive; between $85,000 to $100,000. Mr. Holt questioned if that cost could come out of the taxes? Responding to Mr. Holt, Mr. Lyon stated that he could not answer that question. It’s possible that the City Manager could have a different discussion but the standard procedure is that the developer takes care of the expense. Excerpt of Planning Commission Meeting of June 18, 2018 Page 2 of 6

Page 144

Ms. Maucher questioned if lack of water and sewer impact the ability of the new owner to develop the property as a commercial entity? Is there an Ordinance or restriction stating that a commercial property must have public utilities? Responding to Ms. Maucher, Mrs. Melson- Williams stated that there is not; however, the current property is on its own individual well and septic system. If those items cannot meet the service needs of how the property will be utilized then they may have to look to the connection to City water and sewer. DNREC controls whether you get permits for a new well or septic system. Typically in situations like that they don’t allow upgrades to those current facilities that may be located on the individual property if the opportunity for connection to public water and sewer is available. Mr. Tolbert stated that since this area is an enclave and it doesn’t get any of the City water and sewer, there are other properties in that enclave. If the applicant chose to do that, what impact would it have on the other properties in that enclave? Responding to Mr. Tolbert, Mr. Lyon stated that the estimates provided were strictly for the property in question. It was for the services to go across the road, not for mains to be extended. Mr. Allen stated that the only thing he needs is water and sewer to his property because he wants to put a hair salon there or something else to build the business up. All of the seven properties in that area are kind of an eyesore to Dover in his eyes. You have a gas station and McKinnley’s that is falling apart. He can’t speak for Dover but right now it’s an eyesore. If you bring water and sewer to that area he is sure the other people will bow to get some water and sewer. Maybe you can make the City look a little better on that side. The other side of Route 13 looks great but his side looks like trash. Mr. Tolbert asked if Mr. Allen has talked to his neighbors regarding his plan. Responding to Mr. Tolbert, Mr. Allen stated that he sent them all a letter but nobody has responded yet. Mr. Tolbert further questioned if his neighbors knew that there is going to be a hearing tonight? Responding to Mr. Tolbert, Mr. Allen stated yes they did. Mr. Tolbert opened a public hearing. Mr. James McKinney – 52 Smith Street Dover, DE 19901 Mr. McKinney stated that on behalf of himself and his family which owns the property directly behind and the parcel two lots north that has highway frontage; they have no desire to be annexed into the City of Dover. They have wells that work great and they have their own septic. They don’t want to be annexed into the City of Dover. As far as the Comprehensive Plan goes, he doesn’t know of anyone in DuPont Manor that wants to be annexed either. They annexed Wawa which was adjoining through the old Gulf Station where the Starbucks is located now and then crossed over the State Police Headquarters. The Dover Mall was annexed in years ago. Wilmington University also got annexed in but nothing east of DuPont Manor has been annexed. It’s not surrounded; its just north and south of our parcels that have been annexed. As far as Mr. Allen’s need for water and sewer for his hair business, he believes there is a tie in just on the other side of Kentwood Drive for the County sewer but he would have to cross a couple of lots in order to get to it which would be a substantial cost also. Speaking on behalf of those adjoining properties, they have no desire to be annexed. They feel that this may be a foothold into basically Excerpt of Planning Commission Meeting of June 18, 2018 Page 3 of 6

Page 145

forcing their annexation and they don’t want that. Mr. Tolbert questioned if he was just speaking for himself or for all of the neighbors? Responding to Mr. Tolbert, Mr. McKinney stated that he can speak for all of the McKinney neighbors. Mr. McKinney stated that he does believe with Mr. Allen’s need for the water and septic, the fact that no one around really wants to be included would be reason for DNREC to approve a large system for his hair business. Mr. Tolbert stated that he is not clear about Mr. McKinney’s reason for not wanting to be part of the City of Dover. Responding to Mr. Tolbert, Mr. McKinney stated that it’s because of increased taxes. It’s all financial. As far as even trash service, which is an expense that you must incur, they pretty much take care of that. Mr. Tolbert closed the public hearing. Mr. Holt stated that the present owners there that have their present wells and so forth, would they not be able to use them if they were annexed into the City? Would they all be forced to tie into the City water and sewer? Responding to Mr. Holt, Mr. Lyon stated that as Mrs. Melson- Williams stated earlier, the reason that DNREC would make anyone connect to public sewer and water is if your well or septic tank fails and you are within 200 feet of a water main or sewer main to your property. The specific issue before us tonight would only be for services to this property. There would not be a main added that these people would be in proximity too. Mr. Holt questioned if they could still continue with the use of their well and so forth? Responding to Mr. Holt, Mr. Lyon stated yes. Dr. Jones stated that given the fact that you already have a well, we just heard that DNREC may not recognize the current well if it’s not large enough or it fails. She thinks that the applicant mentioned that he wanted to open a salon and you just need water and sewer. How does the applicant view what has been said about the uncertainty maybe of the current water and sewer? Responding to Dr. Jones, Mr. Allen stated that he has owned the place for about five years. He wants to open it up because he has been sitting on this property for five years. He figured that somebody might want to get water and sewer in that area but if they don’t want it what can he say to that. He thinks that it’s necessary in the area because you can’t really develop land if you don’t have water and sewer in Dover. You can sit on a piece of property for six or seven years and not do anything to it if you are in the County. In the City of Dover, you have to clean it up. You have to make a business out of it; you can’t just sit on it. Right now, he has been sitting on this property and the County hasn’t said a word to him about anything that he did. Dr. Jones stated that the point in question is, assuming that the property is annexed, are you ready to move forward to provide the necessary utilities to the property? Responding to Dr. Jones, Mr. Allen stated yes. Mr. Roach questioned if there was any validity behind the concerns of the gentleman in regards Excerpt of Planning Commission Meeting of June 18, 2018 Page 4 of 6

Page 146

to the fact that his annexation could possibly affect the surrounding properties? He is trying to clarify that if he (the applicant) does get annexed in because the other properties in close proximity, would there be any issue in regards to them keeping their current sewers and wells? Responding to Mr. Roach, Mrs. Melson-Williams stated that annexation into the City of Dover is by property owner request. The City does not have provisions currently where the City could go after a person specifically and force them to annex into the City limits. Typically, property owner request means that they want to be annexed into the City of Dover. This application tonight is about one property. Yes, if it is annexed into the City of Dover then the boundary of the City of Dover does become closer to a number of properties more so than it was before. It may actually make some (properties) easier to annex because they could then be contiguous where currently they may not be at all. The key thing is that it is a property owner request that starts the annexation process. Mr. Lyon stated that just as a point of reference, the Kent County sanitary sewer is available in this development and Tidewater has a CPCN, which are territorial rights in this area. He can’t speak to the exact location of where those mains are but that would come up. Hypothetically if your well fails, DNREC is going to look to see if there is any sort of main there. It may be Tidewater or it may be Kent County sewer but it would not be the City of Dover so they would not mandate any annexation at this point in time. Ms. Maucher questioned if this property was in the Tidewater CPCN area? Responding to Ms. Maucher, Mr. Lyon stated no, the CPCN is to the east. He meant to say it was located behind this location. Ms. Maucher questioned if it was in any CPCN area? Responding to Ms. Maucher, Mr. Lyon stated it is located in the City of Dover’s area. Ms. Maucher stated that services by Tidewater may not be an option then unless the City relinquished. Responding to Ms. Maucher, Mr. Lyon stated that the property can request a CPCN change. If Mr. Allen wants to go down that road to see if he can connect into Tidewater which would be an expense as well, that is possible. Mr. Holt stated that the fact that some of the other property owners aren’t here tonight shows that the evidently have no interest in coming into the City. Responding to Mr. Holt, Mrs. Melson- Williams stated that the notification is in regards to property owners within 200 feet; they are given notice of the application being filed. That notice was given, there is also the legal ad in the newspaper and the bright yellow sign that notes the hearings both before the Planning Commission and City Council. This is an application request for one parcel of land; the property at 3074 North DuPont Highway and that property only. Mr. Tolbert stated that if the application was approved, the applicant is not obligated to tie into the City water and sewer system. Responding to Mr. Tolbert, Mrs. Melson-Williams stated yes, the sheer action of annexing the property does not automatically trigger a requirement for connection to City water and sewer. It makes that an option. Ms. Maucher questioned if it obligates the City to extend services? Responding to Ms. Maucher, Excerpt of Planning Commission Meeting of June 18, 2018 Page 5 of 6

Page 147

Mrs. Melson-Williams stated that it does not. Ms. Maucher moved to recommend approval to City Council for AX-18-01 Lands of Jesse L. Allen at 3074 North DuPont Highway, to include the zoning classification change from BG (General Business District) to C-4 (Highway Commercial Zone), seconded by Mrs. Welsh and the motion was carried 7-0 by roll call vote with Mr. Holden and Ms. Edwards absent. Mr. Roach voting yes. Mr. Holt voting yes; he thinks it’s a good move for the City and he thinks that in the long run everyone will be happy. Mr. Baldwin voting yes. Dr. Jones voting yes; based upon Staff’s recommendation and review from the DAC. Mrs. Welsh voting yes; based on Staff’s recommendation. Ms. Maucher voting yes; it’s in a High Priority Annexation Area and she concurs with the owner’s concerns about that side of the highway. It will be nice to see some development going. Mr. Tolbert voting yes; we have an enclave in this area which is something of an anomaly in the City of Dover. The City is completely all around this place and he hopes that it encourages all of the people in that area to come to the conclusion that they would be willing to annex into the City of Dover. It would make it easier for everybody. Excerpt of Planning Commission Meeting of June 18, 2018 Page 6 of 6

1 The Office of State Planning Coordination has final discretion and is available to help your municipality evaluate whether specific parcels meet these guidelines or merit additional consideration due to unusual boundary configurations or other special factors. An enclave is defined for the purpose of evaluating this Plan of Services as an individual lot, piece or parcel of land, a group of parcels or an entire subdivision of record; where a. the boundaries are not less than 50% contiguous with the boundaries of an annexing municipal corporation; and which is designated by the municipality’s most recent certified comprehensive plan as an annexation area; and b. is lawfully accessible by vehicular traffic over lands lying within the annexing municipal corporation; and c. is receiving public services such as water, sewer, electric, police protection, fire protection or trash collection, from the said municipal corporation, its municipal electric company, or any water and/or sewer authority of which the said municipal corporation is a member; or d. in addition to item B, is not currently receiving public services but will have available such public services as are provided to other properties within the annexing municipal corporation whether by the said municipal corporation, its municipal electric company, any water and/or sewer authority of which the said municipal corporation is a member, or by a public utility regulated by the Delaware Public Service Commission. 2 Enterprise funds, typically for municipal utilities, are financed by user fees for the utilities. The purpose of enterprise funds is to provide services to consumers at a price that will cover both the current cost of operations and the maintenance and financing of necessary capital assets. Provisions of the Delaware Code Applicable to Annexations Title 22 § 101 Annexation by city or town 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, except any proposed annexation that has been submitted to the Office of State Planning Coordination prior to the effective date of this Act for review, shall conform to the following provisions: (a) All annexations must be consistent with the most recently adopted municipal comprehensive plan meeting the requirements of Title 22, Chapter 7, Delaware Code. The area(s) being considered must be depicted as area(s) for future annexation on the adopted plan. If a municipality does not have an adopted comprehensive plan, or if its adopted comprehensive plan does not depict areas for future annexation, it shall prepare and adopt a plan or plan amendment within 12 months of the effective date of this Act. The municipality shall not approve any annexations until such plan or plan amendment is adopted, notwithstanding any other charter provisions; except that during the 12- month period a municipality may consider an annexation of already developed parcels where the proposed use(s) will not change from that currently authorized in the adjacent jurisdiction and where the primary purpose of the annexation is to address existing public health or safety issues such as, but not limited to, failing on-site wastewater disposal systems or contaminated or inadequate drinking water. In such cases the provisions of §101(b) through (f) of this section shall not apply. (b) A city or town shall prepare a plan of services indicating those services it expects to provide to the newly annexed area, how such services will be provided, and the fiscal and operating capabilities of the municipality to provide such services. Should any services be provided by another jurisdiction or a public utility regulated by the Delaware Public Service Commission, the written comments of such provider on the provider's ability to provide the necessary services for the proposed annexation shall be obtained and included in the plan of services. The study shall be conducted in accordance with standards or criteria established by the Cabinet Committee on State Planning Issues as administered 6

Page 154

by the Office of State Planning Coordination. (c) At the time of annexation the jurisdiction shall by ordinance rezone the area being annexed to a zoning classification consistent with the adopted comprehensive plan or development strategy. (d) A municipality proposing annexation must fully comply with the provisions of Chapter 92, Title 29, Delaware Code as to State notice, and must demonstrate that it has notified all other affected jurisdictions, conducted a public hearing, and provided a comment period of at least 30 days before formal annexation. The city or town proposing annexation shall file with the State Office of Planning Coordination any written comments received concerning such proposed annexation together with any response(s) thereto. (e) The Advisory Council on Planning Coordination shall establish a mechanism for resolving disputes between jurisdictions regarding annexations. The mechanism developed by the Council shall address: determination of how the costs for the dispute resolution process are born among the parties; timeline for the dispute resolution process; and extent to which the dispute resolution process will be enforceable. Title 22 § 702. Comprehensive development plan (a) A planning commission established by any incorporated municipality under this chapter shall prepare a comprehensive plan for the city or town or portions thereof as the commission deems appropriate. It is the purpose of this section to encourage the most appropriate uses of the physical and fiscal resources of the municipality and the coordination of municipal growth, development and infrastructure investment actions with those of other municipalities, counties and the State through a process of municipal comprehensive planning. (b) Comprehensive plan means a document in text and maps, containing at a minimum, a municipal development strategy setting forth the jurisdiction's position on population and housing growth within the jurisdiction, expansion of its boundaries, development of adjacent areas, redevelopment potential, community character, and the general uses of land within the community, and critical community development and infrastructure issues. The comprehensive planning process shall demonstrate coordination with other municipalities, the county and the State during plan preparation. The comprehensive plan for municipalities of greater than 2,000 population shall also contain, as appropriate to the size and character of the jurisdiction, a description of the physical, demographic and economic conditions of the jurisdiction; as well as policies, statements, goals and planning components for public and private uses of land, transportation, economic development, affordable housing, community facilities, open spaces and recreation, protection of sensitive areas, community design, adequate water and wastewater systems, protection of historic and cultural resources, annexation and such other elements which in accordance with present and future needs, in the judgment of the municipality, best promotes the health, safety, prosperity and general public welfare of the jurisdiction's residents. (c) The comprehensive plan shall be the basis for the development of zoning regulations as permitted pursuant to Chapter 3 of this title. (d) After a comprehensive plan or portion thereof has been adopted by the municipality in accordance to this chapter, the comprehensive plan shall have the force of law and no development shall be permitted except as consistent with the plan. (e) At least every 5 years a municipality shall review its adopted comprehensive plan to determine if its provisions are still relevant given changing conditions in the municipality or in the surrounding areas. The adopted comprehensive plan shall be revised, updated and amended as necessary, and re-adopted at least every 10 years. (f) Municipalities shall file their adopted comprehensive plan with the Office of State Planning 7

Coordination within 90 days of the effective date of this section, and within 90 days after any re- adoption or revision, update or amendment thereto. Municipalities shall further provide to the Office of State Planning Coordination by December 31 of each year a report describing implementation of their comprehensive plan and identifying development issues, trends or conditions since the plan was last adopted or amended. 8

COUNCIL COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE The Council Committee of the Whole met on June 26, 2018 at 5:00 p.m., with Council President Slavin presiding. Members of Council present were Mr. Anderson, Mr. Sudler, Mr. Neil, Mr. Lewis (arrived at 5:54 p.m.), Mr. Cole, Mr. Polce (arrived at 5:05 p.m.), Mr. Hare (arrived at 5:50 p.m., departed at 6:25 p.m., and returned at 6:26 p.m.), and Mr. Lindell. Mayor Christiansen was also present. Civilian members present for ethics training and their Committee meetings were Mr. Garfinkel (Safety Advisory and Transportation), Mrs. Doyle and Ms. Scarborough (Utility), and Mr. Shevock and Dr. Stewart (Legislative, Finance, and Administration). Mr. Caldwell and Dr. Warfield (Parks, Recreation, and Community Enhancement) and Mr. Shelton (Safety Advisory and Transportation) were absent. Other Committee, Commission, or Board members present for ethics training were Ms. Tricia Arndt, Mr. James Burcham, Mrs. Lisa Enright, Dr. Cherritta Matthews, Mr. Charles Martin, Mrs. Nancy Shevock, Mr. Jonathan Street, and Mr. Robert Wetherall. LEGISLATIVE, FINANCE, AND ADMINISTRATION COMMITTEE PARKS, RECREATION, AND COMMUNITY ENHANCEMENT COMMITTEE SAFETY ADVISORY AND TRANSPORTATION COMMITTEE UTILITY COMMITTEE Ethics Training Ms. Deborah Moreau, Commission Counsel, Delaware Public Integrity Commission, reviewed a presentation entitled “Ethics in Government.” Mr. Sudler thanked Ms. Moreau for providing clarity regarding the Ethics Commission. He asked how the public could be assured that the Ethics Commission members are competent in efficiently interpreting and administering the ethics codes defined by State or City statute. He asked if there is training for each member or whether their resumes are reviewed and assessed by the State to determine if they have some knowledge of the law and how to apply it to situations for valid judgments. Responding, Ms. Moreau stated that it is up to the City’s Commission to set up some type of training program if it is deemed necessary for incoming members. She explained that knowledge of the law should not be the requirement for every member, noting that, in order to have perspectives from all angles, it is important to have a well-rounded commission, which would include lay people and lawyers. Ms. Moreau advised that, on their committee, they have a couple of attorneys, a farmer, a retiree, and it is a mix of people from all three (3) counties. She stated that she thinks it is important to have people who can bounce ideas off of each other and see different perspectives. Mr. Sudler stated that he agreed with Ms. Moreau to a certain extent; however, he expressed his opinion that members should have some knowledge of how to interpret and apply the code, to be able to fully participate and provide good input, separate from just general knowledge. Ms. Moreau noted that their new members come in wide-eyed and a little intimidated but, when they sit down and go through the process, they learn from the other members. She explained that it is really good to go through the process with other people who know what they are doing, and then they take their cues from there and if they have a different take on it, then they have a different take. Ms. Moreau stated that you have to learn this process by doing it.

COUNCIL COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE MEETING OF JUNE 26, 2018 PAGE 2 Mr. Sudler asked Ms. Moreau what her professional opinion is in regard to the City’s Ethics Commission not being under the jurisdiction of the State Ethics Commission, and what negative encounters cities have confronted having their own ethics committees, when it comes to rulings or judgments. In response, Ms. Moreau stated that she does not have a professional opinion about whether a city should have their own ethics committee or not. She noted that sometimes cities are not as enthusiastic about making sure their committees are fully staffed, for example, approximately six (6) months ago, there was an article in the News Journal that the Wilmington Ethics Department had dissipated and no one had even noticed. Ms. Moreau explained that this is a danger when cities have their own committees and it is important to ensure that someone stays on top of it and keeps track to make sure they have a full complement of members. Mr. Slavin thanked everyone for attending and expressed his appreciation to Ms. Moreau for providing the training for the City. Ms. Moreau thanked Mr. Slavin for inviting her, noting that she had provided nine (9) sessions and she could tell that people did not know a whole lot about it, so it was good to get the word out. Mr. Sudler asked for some examples of non-monetary, personal gain that may give an appearance of impropriety. Responding, Ms. Moreau noted that two (2) examples were the employee who used their Delaware Justice Information System (DELJIS) access to look up individuals’ information for their personal use, and the guy using the HIV positive list for his own personal benefit to provide dating lists to his friends and neighbors. SAFETY ADVISORY AND TRANSPORTATION COMMITTEE The Safety Advisory and Transportation Committee met with Chairman Lewis presiding. AGENDA ADDITIONS/DELETIONS Mr. Sudler moved for approval of the agenda, seconded by Mr. Neil and unanimously carried. Delaware Bicycle Council Grant for a Feasibility Study - Multi-Purpose Path Linking Mallard Pond Park to Fox Hall West Mrs. Margery Cyr, Library Director, advised members that, in May, the City received an announcement of grant availability from the Delaware Bicycle Council for projects that yield high and visible impacts within the community. She stated that the granting agency expects to award a total of $20,000 in this grant cycle. Mrs. Cyr explained that the invitation letter indicated that requests for assistance in advancing new projects such as, but not limited to, pathways, protected bike lanes, and bicycle streets will be considered and will support project ideas that expand existing cycling infrastructure, filled gaps, and address obstacles and safety hazards. She stated that the intent of the grant is to provide cycling infrastructure in communities and the project can be a missing link between existing facilities or the project needs to be completed to avoid a hazard or is part of a master plan. Mrs. Cyr informed members that the first grant in 2015 was awarded to Bridgeville and was used to complete the design of a path. She stated that the deadline for submitting the grant is July 31, 2018, and the City’s Bicycle/Pedestrian Subcommittee considered this opportunity during its meeting of June 19, 2018.

Page 163

COUNCIL COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE MEETING OF JUNE 26, 2018 PAGE 3 Mrs. Cyr reminded members that the City’s 2015 Pedestrian Plan recommended the installation of a new sidewalk or trail connecting Fox Hall West and Mallard Pond. She noted that the recommendation stated that, Fox Hall West and Mallard Pond are residential communities in the west part of Dover, comprising nearly 200 single-family lots. The communities only have access from Kenton Road. Fox Hall West is only about 1/4 mile north of Route 8. However, the community does not have vehicular or pedestrian access to Route 8, so all trips traveling to Route 8 must be made via Kenton Road. Due to the lack of sidewalks along Kenton Road, it can be safely assumed that these trips are almost exclusively done with a motor vehicle, as opposed to walking or riding a bike. The new Dover High School, which opened in the summer of 2014, is located along Route 8 in close proximity to these communities. However, due to the lack of pedestrian access to Route 8, a trip from the southern end of Fox Hall West to the new school is 2.2 miles, traveling along Kenton Road. If there were direct pedestrian access to Route 8 though, this trip would be reduced to 0.8 mile. The City of Dover owns 2 parcels of land in between Route 8 and Fox Hall West, comprising 8.7 acres of open space (including Mallard Pond Park). It is recommended that the City of Dover evaluate the feasibility of constructing a bicycle/pedestrian trail connection from Fox Hall West (via Pebble Valley Drive) to Marsh Creek Lane, as a means of providing a direct non-motorized connection to Route 8. A trail connection could also be made to an existing sidewalk that connects the Mallard Pond community with the Mallard Pond Park. Providing direct pedestrian access to Route 8 would eliminate vehicular trips along Kenton Road, provide additional recreational access for area residents, and improve access to the new high school. Marsh Creek Lane is just east of the HAWK pedestrian-activated traffic signal that was installed in the summer of 2014. Marsh Creek Lane has sidewalks along its entire length. Mr. Eddie Diaz, Planner I, reviewed a map entitled “Proposed Mallard Pond Trail Link” (Attachment #1). The Bicycle/Pedestrian Subcommittee recommended that the City apply for the grant and that Mrs. Cyr inquire on a quote price of conducting the feasibility study, to be included in the presentation to Council. Mr. Neil asked whether there was support from the neighborhoods for this park. Responding, Mrs. Cyr explained that, in anticipation of this discussion regarding the possibility of installing a multi-use pathway, staff sent a notice out to all of the neighborhoods and invited the neighbors to attend the meetings to provide input to members of the Subcommittee. She advised that one (1) member of the public, Colonel Thomas Dix, Retired, attended the Bicycle/Pedestrian Subcommittee meeting on June 19, 2018 and provided input. Mrs. Cyr noted that the meeting notice was published on the City’s website and mailed to residents. Mrs. Donna Mitchell, City Manager, advised members that all meeting are published on the City’s website; however, in an effort to increase public awareness, the notice regarding the June 19, 2018

Page 164

COUNCIL COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE MEETING OF JUNE 26, 2018 PAGE 4 Bicycle/Pedestrian Subcommittee meeting was also publicized on Facebook. She stated that, since this area is in the First Council District, staff also sent the flyer to First District Councilmen Lindell and Polce, for them to provide to all the homeowners’ associations (HOA’s) and residents that are part of their constituent groups with which they communicate. Mrs. Cyr noted that Colonel Dix, Retired, stated that he supported the project for the multipurpose path; however, he did not support a feasibility study to do it, he just thought it should be done. Mrs. Cyr stated that the Bicycle/Pedestrian Subcommittee recommended applying for this available grant funding for the purpose of a feasibility study to explore the best route for such a multi-use trail, the requirements for the construction of such a route and the estimated cost of such a project. Mr. Anderson noted that this would involve City and HOA property and asked if any feedback was received from the HOA’s regarding their willingness to give these easements. Responding, Mrs. Cyr advised that no feedback was received from any of the HOA’s. Colonel Thomas Dix, Retired, Independence Boulevard, Bicentennial Village, stated that it was his understanding that the Fox Hall West HOA had been dissolved. Responding to Mr. Anderson, Mr. James Hutchison, Bicycle/Pedestrian Subcommittee Chair, advised that the opportunity to receive feedback had not been exhausted. He explained that holding advertised meetings and soliciting feedback from the different residents of the area would be a part of the process of the feasibility study, for which they wanted to apply for the grant. Mr. Lindell asked what the estimated cost of the feasibility study would be. In response, Mrs. Cyr stated that she received responses from three (3) different entities regarding the estimated cost and the responses were widely disparate. She advised that the low estimate was between $8,000 to $10,000, and the high estimate was between $40,000 to $50,000. Responding to Mr. Lindell, Mrs. Cyr stated that this was not currently included in the City’s budget and staff was not anticipating asking for additional funding from the City for it. Mr. Sudler stated that the Heatherfield HOA was currently inactive but looking to be active. He noted that Councilman Polce had met with them last year, and urged him to reach out to those individuals to get a pulse on the sentiment of something like this coming through Heatherfield. In response to Mayor Christiansen, Mrs. Cyr stated that they did not currently have any alternative funding sources for a possible study, in case this grant is not awarded to the City. As the Chairman of the Dover/Kent County Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO), Mayor Christiansen suggested that she may want to apply to the MPO for funding, if this grant does not come to fruition. He explained that the MPO has funding available for alternative studies for multi-modal transport. Mr. Hutchison advised members that it was Bicycle/Pedestrian Subcommittee’s intention to cover the complete cost of the feasibility study with the grant. He stated that they did not intend to try to undertake the study if they cannot get all of the funding from the grant.

Page 165

COUNCIL COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE MEETING OF JUNE 26, 2018 PAGE 5 Mr. Slavin stated that he was fully supportive of these efforts. He noted that these trails are currently being built all across Delaware and have really improved the lives of many people. Mr. Slavin informed members that a lot of these activities have been done in New Caste and Sussex Counties and it is extraordinary to see what’s happening. He explained that it is true that when you build it, people will come out and use it, and it will not just be bicyclists and runners, it will be people who just want to take advantage of a safe passage to take a walk at any given time of the day. Mr. Slavin expressed thanks to the Bicycle/Pedestrian Subcommittee for bringing this item forward. Responding to Mr. Polce, Mrs. Cyr stated that there is not a match requirement or component to the grant. Mr. Polce thanked Mrs. Cyr, noting that this is his backyard and he walks his three (3) dogs around this area nonstop. He stated that he really appreciates Mrs. Cyr letting him know how he can be helpful in soliciting community feedback, specifically in Fox Hall West, because he is happy to help. Mr. Hare, referring to Mr. Slavin’s comments regarding all the things New Castle County is doing, noted that if the legislature would treat Kent County equally to New Castle County, then Kent County might be able to do some of those things and help out too. Mr. Lindell moved to recommend applying for the grant and then seeing what happens from there. The motion was seconded by Mr. Anderson and unanimously carried. Improvements to Division Street - Impact on Circulation (Dix) Colonel Thomas Dix, Retired, Independence Boulevard, Bicentennial Village, reviewed a memo to members regarding his critique of the Dover Capital Gateway Plan and Design, dated June 26, 2018. Mr. Sudler thanked Colonel Dix, Retired, for taking the time, as a citizen, to do the research and providing his detailed critique. He stated that he was very impressed and that he thought it made a lot of sense. Mr. Anderson thanked Colonel Dix, Retired, for his critique, noting that he thought it was a breath of fresh air. He indicated that he had heard some concerns, but had not heard from anyone in support of tearing up of all the roads. Mr. Anderson stated that he thought it seemed like an insane idea that would harm economic growth and development in the City, and would not improve the lives of the City’s citizens. He expressed his opinion that the roads are for travel and vehicles, not artistic experiments. Mr. Neil stated that the purpose of the exercise was actually to create a very attractive entrance to the capital city in Dover. He explained that there are various options and the decision would be the City’s regarding what best relays the message “Welcome to the City.” Mr. Neil reminded members that this was happening in other areas as well, noting that the Martin Luther King, Jr. Boulevard area had been made more attractive using greenery and decorations. Mr. Neil stated that he hoped Colonel Dix, Retired, was not recommended not having curb cuts, explaining that they are necessary for people with disabilities who need to move with wheelchairs and walkers. Responding, Colonel Dix, Retired, stated that he was referring to the curb cuts for disused driveways. He

Page 166

COUNCIL COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE MEETING OF JUNE 26, 2018 PAGE 6 suggested that a welcome sign could be placed at the triangle at the intersection of Forest and Division Streets or in the area between Mifflin and Kenton Roads. Mr. Slavin stated that, with all due respect, he could not disagree more with the observations of Colonel Dix, Retired, and Councilman Anderson. He noted that he would not go into the details of it; however, he thought that it was shortsighted to say “let’s just leave a road the way it is for 20 years.” Mr. Slavin stated that roads are not just for cars, they are for multi-modal transport, especially when there is a middle school in the middle of the road being discussed. Mr. Slavin indicated that he thought that members were trying to ensure safety and economic development, and improve the City, not just trying to move cars faster through town. He noted that while he appreciated their observations, he disagreed with them. Mr. Hare moved for adjournment of the Safety Advisory and Transportation Committee meeting, seconded by Mr. Lindell and unanimously carried. Meeting adjourned at 6:56 p.m. Mr. Hare moved for adjournment of the Council Committee of the Whole meeting. The motion was seconded by Mr. Anderson and unanimously carried.
