Tax Parcels: ED-00-057.02-02-40.00-000 Application Date: August 31, 2012 County Zoning: RMH (Residential Manufactured Home District) Proposed Zoning: C-2A (Limited Central Commercial Zone) Present Use: Residential Proposed Use: Commercial Comprehensive Plan Designation: Category 1 – High Priority Annexation Areas Comprehensive Plan Land Use Designation: Mixed Use Utility Availability: Water: • There is currently an eight-inch (8”) water main that terminates at 58 E. Rustic Lane. To receive water service, the developer / owner of the subject properties must extend the water main to the easternmost property line of 136 East Rustic Lane. Infrastructure must be installed in accordance with the requirements of the City of Dover Water / Wastewater Handbook and DelDOT. • The subject parcels are currently located within Tidewater Utilities Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity (CPCN). The property owner must follow the appropriate guidelines to allow for transference to the City of Dover’s CPCN.

Utility Committee Report AX-12-01 Lands of Taililou, LLC 110 & 136 Rustic Ln. Page | 2 Wastewater: • Currently, there is no City of Dover gravity sanitary sewer service on East Rustic Lane. The closest City of Dover gravity sanitary sewer main is roughly 770 linear feet south of the intersection of East Rustic Lane and Route 13. There is also a one and one quarter inch (1-1/4”) force main located on the east side of Route 13, utilized by WaWa and the Sonic, which is now a maintenance responsibility of the City of Dover. • Providing sanitary sewer service to this area has been a long term goal of the Department of Public Works and will continue to be pursued through an out year capital improvement project as options become available to provide sanitary sewer service to the community as a whole. • Until such time as gravity sanitary sewer service becomes available to the community the options for service are limited. The owner / developer of the subject properties could perform the following, in accordance with the Water / Wastewater Handbook: o Install approximately 1,531 linear feet of sanitary sewer main (provided gravity flow can be obtained). This option has limited viability as it would be cost- prohibitive to any project and would not be approved by DelDOT for at least five (5) years, as Route 13 was recently repaved. o Utilize grinder pumps and install a force main connection to Route 13. This would become a long term maintenance responsibility for the City of Dover, which is discouraged unless there is a community benefit, as East Rustic Lane is a State road. In addition, the existing force main referenced may be unable to receive any additional contribution and connection in Route 13 would not be approved as noted above. The properties would be required to connect to gravity sanitary sewer when it became available. o The subject properties could continue to use a septic system. This option would only be viable for residential use if also approved by DNREC and adequate space was available. The property would be required to connect to public sewer when it became available. • Due to the information above regarding the wastewater utility, future uses of the subject properties would therefore be limited. Electric: • The subject properties are both located in the City of Dover Electric service territory and have power available across the street. Any new service must meet the requirements of the Electric Service Handbook. File Number: AX-12-01
