As part of the implementation process for the Plan, we are required to review the City’s Zoning Maps for compliance with the Land Development Plan component of the Comprehensive Plan. The Land Development Plan indicates the Land Use Categories and vision for the development of all properties within the City of Dover. This review and evaluation process is known as the Comprehensive Rezoning 2021 Project. Planning Staff has identified a number of properties citywide where changes to the zoning district are necessary to achieve compliance with the State of Delaware regulations. The parcel(s) listed above have been identified for rezoning. Attached you will find a description of each zone. The purpose of this letter is to advise you of the proposed change and to inform you of opportunities that you will have to ask questions and express your thoughts regarding our recommended changes. First, Staff would like to invite you to one of three Virtual Information Sessions happening on Tuesday, February 23, 2021 where you can learn more about this project. Staff will be available at these meetings to answer simple questions and share the process we have taken thus far and what will happen with the Comprehensive Rezoning 2021 Project in the future. Additional information regarding the project and the virtual workshops can be found on the city’s website at www.cityofdover.com. P. O. Box 475 Dover, DE 19903 Community Excellence Through Quality Service

Secondly, Staff suggests scheduling an appointment to discuss more in depth or specific questions about your property. To schedule an appointment with Planning Staff to discuss concerns with the proposed zoning please call (302)736-7196 or email CompPlan@dover.de.us. Please include the ID # in your request for an appointment and your phone/email contact information. General information and maps on the Comprehensive Rezoning 2021 Project will be publicly posted at the front of City Hall. It will also be made available on the City’s website at www.cityofdover.com. Formal notification of the Public Hearings on the Comprehensive Rezoning 2021 Project will be sent to you by mail when the dates for both Planning Commission and City Council Meetings are scheduled. All Public Hearings and Meeting announcements are kept up to date and can be viewed under the Meetings/Agendas link on the City’s website. If you have any concerns, I hope you will take advantage of the opportunities we are offering to discuss the proposed zoning of your property. If you have questions, please do not hesitate to call the Planning Department Staff at (302)736-7196 or email at CompPlan@dover.de.us. Sincerely, David S.

COMPREHENSIVE REZONING 2021 PROJECT City of Dover, Delaware Department of Planning & Inspections Comprehensive Plan The 2019 Comprehensive Plan is a vision document for the City of Dover's future growth and development addressing where people will live and work, how essential services will be provided, and how the City can ensure a high quality of life. It is an important informational, policy, and regulatory document. It is used as the foundation for rezoning, annexations, and other land use decisions. After a year of development by the Planning Staff and input from the citizens of Dover, the Planning Commission recommended the Plan’s adoption in December 2019. City Council adopted the 2019 Comprehensive Plan on January 13, 2020 and the Plan has been Certified by the State. Comprehensive Rezoning 2021 Project The Comprehensive Plan outlines a number of Implementation items. Under Delaware Code (State law), the City is required to review and ensure that the Land Development Plan of the Comprehensive Plan and the City’s Official Zoning Map are in alignment. This project is known as the Comprehensive Rezoning 2021 Project. This project is being led by Planning Office Staff from the Department of Planning & Inspections. Compare Land Development Plan Map and Zoning Map Part of this project is to go through a parcel-by-parcel evaluation and make sure that the Land Development Plan Map and Zoning Map match. To do this Planning Staff used GIS (Geographic Information Systems) technology to compare the two maps. The Land Development Plan Map (Map 12-1 in the 2019 Comprehensive Plan) has general Land Use categories for all properties within the City. The Zoning Map depicts the approved Zoning District for each property in the City. To view the current Zoning of properties, the City’s website includes a Dover Parcel and Zoning Map Viewer. Utilize GIS Technology Using GIS, the Planning Staff put the Zoning map layer and Land Development Plan map layer together to determine where there were inconsistencies. After the initial analysis, Staff sifted through results to determine which parcels should be corrected. This Project focuses on where the correction is recommended to be addressed by Rezoning (changing the Zoning District of the property).

2 Analysis of Results by Planning Staff This Analysis of comparing Maps is also guided by a Land Use and Zoning Matrix. This Matrix within Chapter 12: Land Development Plan of the 2019 Comprehensive Plan is presented as Table 12-1: Land Use and Zoning Matrix. It lists the Land Use Categories and the matching Zoning Districts. The Zoning District of a property must match the Land Use Category of the property. In some cases, a Zoning District is allowed in several different Land Use Categories. Preliminary Listing of Rezonings A series of properties are being recommended for Rezoning based on the completed analysis. See the Preliminary Zoning Map and List of 2/4/2021. The selected properties are highlighted in green and have a corresponding ID number. The List includes the ID Number, property address, the current Zoning District, and the Proposed Zoning District. Also provided is the Zoning District Type List document which consists of a quick summary of the allowable uses in each Zoning District. Public Outreach on Proposed Rezonings The next step in the Comprehensive Rezoning 2021 Project is educating property owners whose properties have been identified for Rezoning. We are sharing information about the Comprehensive Rezoning process and giving you an opportunity to learn more. See this packet of information consisting of documents and maps. Virtual Information Sessions on the Comprehensive Rezoning 2021 Project will be held on February 23, 2021 using WebEx, a phone and audio/video conferencing system. Virtual Information Sessions will be held at 10:00am, 4:00pm, and 7:00pm. Planning Staff will give a presentation on the Project and answer general questions. See information flyer for how to participate. Formal Review Process The consideration of the Comprehensive Rezoning 2021 Project will involve a formal review process. The process includes public notice mailings and legal advertisements, preparation of the Comprehensive Rezoning package (lists and maps identifying parcels), and Public Hearings. Public Hearings will be scheduled with the Planning Commission and City Council in order to accept or deny the proposed rezoning of properties identified. After a decision has been made by City Council, the City’s Zoning Map will be edited to reflect the parcels that have been rezoned. Other Related Steps As a companion piece to the Comprehensive Rezoning 2021 Project, Staff also anticipate bringing forward a series of Amendments to the 2019 Comprehensive Plan. These Amendments will address Plan text changes and revisions to Land Use Categories designated on the Map 12-1: Land Development Plan discovered during this parcel-by- parcel analysis and/or Comprehensive Rezoning process.
