Accounting Principles ©2022 CliftonLarsonAllen LLP Other Accounting Auditors Estimates Internal Control Matters Required Communications Item 3. Audit Key Difficulties Disclosures Audit Adjustments Topic Communication Purpose • Express an opinion on the financial statements, not on the effectiveness of internal controls. • Our consideration of internal controls was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control that might be material weaknesses or significant deficiencies and therefore material weaknesses or significant deficiencies may exist that were not identified. In addition, because of inherent limitations in internal control, including the possibility of management override of controls, misstatements due to fraud or error may occur and not be detected by such controls. Material Weakness • Reasonable possibility that a material misstatement would not be prevented or detected and corrected on a timely basis. Significant Deficiencies • Less significant than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit the attention of governance. Restricted Use • This communication is intended solely for the information and use of management, the audit committee, and others within the County, and is not intended to be, and should not be, used by anyone other than these specified parties. Results • No material weaknesses or significant deficiencies identified • Separate management letter issued • Two Passed adjustments (Liability reconciliation and fixed assets) Current Year Changes • Debt Issuance (General Fund $1.5M, Water Fund $675k) • Pension Liabilities/market Performance (OPEB decrease of $14M, Pension decrease of $15M) • GASB 84 Implementation (removal of Downtown Dover, renaming of Agency Funds) 21 6

2021 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Introductory Section Item 3. February 17, 2022 The Honorable Mayor, Honorable Council President, Members of the City Council and Citizens of the City of Dover Dover, Delaware 19901 Ladies and Gentlemen: I am pleased to submit the Annual Comprehensive Financial Report of the City of Dover for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021. This report is published to comply with the provisions of Article IV, Section 46 of the City Charter. It is also intended to provide financial data to the tax and ratepayers, bondholders, trustees, banks, federal and state agencies, and the financial community at large. Management assumes full responsibility for the completeness and reliability of the information contained in this report, based upon a comprehensive framework of internal control that it has established for this purpose. Because the cost of internal control should not exceed anticipated benefits, the objective is to provide reasonable, rather than absolute, assurance that the financial statements are free of any material misstatements. The financial statements in this report have been audited by CliftonLarsonAllen LLP, an independent firm of certified public accountants as required by Section 46 of the City Charter. CliftonLarsonAllen LLP has provided an unmodified opinion on the City of Dover financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2021. The report of independent public accountants is located at the front of the financial section of this report. Management’s Discussion and Analysis (MD&A) provides a narrative introduction, overview, and analysis of the basic financial statements. The MD&A complements this letter of transmittal and should be read in conjunction with it. Our MD&A can be found immediately following the report of our independent auditors. THE REPORTING ENTITY AND ITS SERVICES The City of Dover was incorporated in 1829 under a Charter granted by the General Assembly. Dover is the Capital of the State of Delaware and is in the central part of the State. It is home to the State Governor’s office, legislative offices, and is the County seat for Kent County. 3 37

2021 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Introductory Section Item 3. The City currently occupies a land area of 23.87 square miles and serves a population of approximately 38,412. Dover’s governing body is composed of a Mayor and nine Council Members, with one Council Member elected by Council to serve as Council President. Two members of City Council are elected from each of the four districts; the ninth Council member of Council and the Mayor are elected at-large. The Council is responsible for all matters of policy and is the authority for levying taxes, securing revenues, authorizing expenditures of City funds and incurring City debts. The City of Dover operates under a Council – Manager form of government. The City provides a full range of services as mandated by the Charter or adopted by the City Council. They include police protection, street, sanitation and stormwater maintenance, recreation, library, community development, economic development, public improvements, planning and zoning, safety inspections, electric power generation and distribution, water and wastewater services, legislative services, and general administration. Within the City is a volunteer fire company that is autonomous. Under established criteria, the operations of the Robbins Hose Fire Company are not a part of this report. However, the City provides financing for dispatching, personnel costs, most of the building and equipment maintenance, supplies, and contractual services. The City also provides funding to Robbins Hose for payments on fire engine no. 5 and fire engine Squad no. 1. These payments are grouped under the Fire Department and are included in the General Fund. The Fire Chief is elected by the volunteer members of the Fire Company. The City Council traditionally adopts the election and officially appoints the Fire Chief for a one-year term. Therefore, the Fire Department is included in the City organization chart. The Capital School District does not meet the established criteria for inclusion in the reporting entity and, accordingly, is excluded from this report. The City Council shall, on or before the second Monday of June in each year, adopt a budget for the succeeding fiscal year. This annual budget serves as the foundation for the City of Dover’s financial planning and control. The budget is prepared by fund and department. With approval of the City Manager and Controller/Treasurer, Department Heads may transfer resources within or between departments, except for capital project budgets. Transfers between funds and transfers of capital project budgets, however, need special approval from the City Council. ECONOMIC CONDITION AND FUTURE GROWTH Dover continues to be the dominant center of population, employment, commerce, education, and culture in Central Delaware. Economic growth continues in all sectors with construction and permit activity occurring during the year, showing modest recovery from the effects of a nation-wide pandemic. Population and employment growth remain steady, but consumer spending has been reduced and some retail market softness could continue to impact utility and other revenues. Growth in the health care and commercial/retail sectors is especially strong, with significant new projects occurring throughout the City. New manufacturing businesses are creating significant employment opportunities and adding to the City and County economies. Revitalization of the historic Downtown commercial core continues 4 38

2021 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Introductory Section Item 3. somewhat slowly, but increasingly successful projects to include the older nearby residential neighborhoods is ongoing. Total value of commercial construction in FY21 was approximately $131.9 million, up significantly from the prior year because of several large projects. Over 1,700 building permits of all types were issued last year, up from the prior year, but only about 3,500 business licenses were issued, down slightly from the previous year. Year to year comparisons is not necessarily indicative of the health of Dover’s economy due to the timing of activity and the variability of general economic factors. Growth and development trends during fiscal year 2021 are discussed below. Population Growth The decennial census was conducted in 2020 and set Dover’s April 1, 2020 population at 39,403 (an increase of about 9.3% since 2010). Dover’s population is projected to grow to 41,032 by 2030, with a sustained growth rate of about 5% during each of the next ten-year periods. Statistically, Dover’s population is younger than that of the County or the State, with a slightly lower proportion of population of senior citizens as well. Working-age adults (23-64) are projected to remain stable as a percentage of the City’s population, making up slightly less than half of the City’s population through 2030. Residential Development Dover’s residential construction market continues to recover from the prior recession, as older developments are seeing increased build-out and the market for apartment units remains strong. Home sales for new and older dwellings are reported to be strong as well. Significant activity occurred in Nottingham Meadows, Patriot Village, Lexington Green, Oak Shadows and elsewhere throughout the City. These projects, and prospective new subdivision projects are expected to have a positive impact on Dover’s rate of population growth. Downtown Dover Redevelopment Despite the limitations imposed by COVID-19, revitalization of the historic Downtown core is continuing in both commercial and residential sectors, with potential new businesses locating in existing spaces, primarily along Loockerman Street. Through the efforts of groups like National Council on Agricultural Life and Labor (NCALL) and Habitat for Humanity, numerous deteriorated and blighted residential properties have been demolished and are being replaced by new owner-occupied dwellings, transforming entire block-fronts adjacent to the commercial core. An Artisanal Market was under construction in the downtown as well, building on prior successful farmer’s markets. Retail/Commercial Development This sector continues to show significant growth with new and expanded locations along the major highway corridors and throughout the City. Century Engineering and Chesapeake Utilities completed new buildings along the Bay Road Corridor. Plans for a new facility for the Delaware Solid Waste Authority are in the works. An office 5 39

2021 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Introductory Section Item 3. for Delaware State Police/Homeland Security, and other commercial buildings and renovations were also completed in that portion of the City. Plans are also underway for several new restaurants and other businesses along US 13, and along the Route 8 corridor. Other projects include the construction of the Grotto Pizza Dough Factory, Bob’s Discount Furniture, Red Robin, the conversion of the former Acme grocery to a Hobby Lobby craft goods store, along with numerous renovations throughout the City. Manufacturing, Health Care, Institutional and Other Sectors Development Dover’s economy is well balanced across a range of sectors including manufacturing, health care, government and military, education, and industrial categories. Manufacturing showed strong growth during FY 2021, with both small and large firms such as Shore Industries and Avalon, and Delmarva Corrugated Packaging (a 450,000 square foot+ state of the art new manufacturer of corrugated paper packaging), making Dover home. In education, Delaware State University completed their 620-bed dormitory complex replacing outdated existing facilities and announced plans to acquire Wesley College in downtown Dover to expand health related offerings, and other uses. The Capital School District began construction of two middle schools and completed renovations of William Henry school damaged a year earlier by a tornado. Two large governmental projects were in development: planning and site acquisition for a future Family Court facility is underway; and construction of a new, relocated U.S. Post Office for Dover is nearing completion, both locations are within the downtown area. Summary Fiscal Year 2021 saw a continuation of strong growth in the state capital. Dover remains the geographic and economic center of the County, and is well posed for future growth, development, and reinvestment. LONG-TERM FINANCIAL PLANNING AND MAJOR INITIATIVES The City Council continues its focus and commitment to improving the quality and reliability of our City assets and infrastructure to continue to provide safe and reliable municipal services to the citizens of Dover.

2021 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Introductory Section Item 3. City completed the first and third phases of the new ERP System amounting to $0.4 million, and the electric utility had vehicle and equipment additions of $0.2 million. The water utility had capital improvements totaling $8.4 million. This total included $7.7 million in upgrades to the water treatment plant. The City also recognized $0.6 million of improvements to include water meter replacements, improvements to the Bulk Water Station, and Water Quality Improvements. Additionally, there was a vehicle transferred into this utility from the electric utility. The wastewater utility had capital improvements totaling $1.3 million. Approximately $0.7 million of this total included Inflow Infiltration removal, $0.3 million for sewer replacements, $0.2 million for Scada equipment updates, as well as smaller projects such as meter replacements, and pumpstation upgrades to the following pumpstations: Puncheon Run, Lafferty Lane, College Road and Turnberry. In addition to capital improvements, there was a repair to the Jet trucks. The City maintains a five-year Capital Investment Plan which serves as its planning and budgeting tool to program upgrades and replacements to its equipment, facilities, and infrastructure. As part of this process, operating expenses are identified, and funding sources are determined. Managers are required to rank capital expenditures by criticality, based on the impacts on customer services and revenue losses. The fiscal year 2021/2022 Capital Investment Plan includes $3.3 million for vehicles and equipment and $31.2 million of infrastructure and utility improvement projects. The Capital Investment Plan is presented to City Council each year during the budget workshops, and the final plan is approved by City Council along with the annual budget. In fiscal year 2022, the General Fund capital improvements budget is $4.0 million. The Public Works-Streets department has an approved capital project budget of $1.2 million for Street, Concrete and Alley program items. The Public Works-Stormwater department has an approved budget of $1.9 million for miscellaneous storm sewer, dam, and basin improvements to include Persimmon Park Place, and East Lake Garden. The Parks and Recreation department has earmarked funding of $0.8 million for park improvements at numerous locations throughout the City. There are smaller appropriated amounts for Information Technologies, Library and the Police department. The Water Fund budget includes capital improvements of $2.0 million. Approximately $1.7 million will be used for water quality improvement projects and future well installation. The remaining $0.3 million is earmarked for use in the wellhead redevelopment program and for miscellaneous emergency repairs. The total Wastewater Fund capital improvements budget is $0.6 million and will be used for inflow and infiltration removal, various pump station replacement/improvements and miscellaneous emergency repairs. The Electric Fund is projecting $21.5 million in capital improvements for FY22. The new development budget totals $1.1 million. The plant decommissioning project involving the dismantlement of the McKee Run Power plant is budgeted at $9.0 million and will most likely span several years. The Garrison Oak Substation was included in the FY22 budget at $7.0 million. The electric engineering division has an array of capital improvement projects totaling $4.4 million of this proposed amount there are software and equipment upgrades for such things as SCADA Hardware Replacement and UPS Batteries, Small Cell Wireless Improvements and FLIR Camera ($0.7 million). Also included in the $4.4 million referenced above, there are a number of projects throughout the City 7 41

2021 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Introductory Section Item 3. to include Kentwood Trailer Park, Bay Road, Popular Lane and Townsend Boulevard, whether converting and/or replacing existing lines ($3.7 million). The Electric Department also has $0.2 million budgeted in anticipation of completing the LED lighting conversion project allowing the City to move toward LED lighting for Roadway, Decorative and Security lights. There are two smaller projects scheduled for the Butner office location and Weyandt Hall totaling $0.3 million. FINANCIAL POLICIES AND FINANCIAL PLANNING Unassigned fund balances in the General Fund of 21.8% exceeded the policy guidelines of a minimum of 8% and maximum of 12% of current year operating revenues as approved by City Council in the City of Dover financial policies. This overage was attributed to higher than anticipated Transfer Tax receipts as well as lower than budgeted expenditures along all functions of the government due to attrition and vacancies, and as a result, the fiscal year 2022 budget will be adjusted to address the overage. The water and wastewater utility guidelines are to maintain a minimum budget balance of at least 8% and no greater than 17% (two months) of the current year operating revenues. The current budget balances as of June 30, 2021 for the utilities are water at 22.7% of the actual water revenues and wastewater at 4.5% of the actual wastewater revenues. Both budget balances are outside of the guidelines and will be addressed in the fiscal year 2022 budget. The electric utility is to maintain a minimum budget balance of at least 12% (45 days) of the current year operating revenues, less the Distribution of Earnings – PCA Credit. If the balances fall below the established percentages, the City Manager is required to submit budgets to bring the balances up to minimum within three years. The electric utility ended the year with a budget balance greater than the 12%, at 28.3%. This was attributed to lower than projected power supply and generation cost and lower than anticipated divisional expense and interfund service fees. The City policies also require non-recurring revenues to be set aside for capital improvements as designated by City Council (reserve accounts) and a $700,000 contingency reserve in the General Fund, $250,000 each for the Water and Wastewater Fund contingency reserves and $750,000 contingency in the Electric Revenue Fund to address unforeseeable natural disasters and insurance losses. All major funds meet the contingency reserve requirements. The water and wastewater utilities impose impact fees, which are reserved by ordinance, on new developments or facilities to assist with financing future expansion projects. The electric utility maintains depreciation and future capacity reserves to assist with asset replacements and system expansions. Financial policies require the electric utility to maintain a minimum of $10.0 million in each of these reserves, with replenishment over seven years when used to finance projects. The City’s financial policies also include an Electric Rate Stabilization Reserve account. The purpose of this reserve is to level off the fluctuations in the wholesale power supply market and in turn provide stable rates to the City’s customers. The reserve balance shall be maintained at a minimum of 10% not to exceed 20% of the purchase power cost in any given year. 8 42

2021 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Financial Section – Part B – Management’s Discussion and Analysis Item 3. The City of Dover Management’s Discussion and Analysis For the Year Ended June 30, 2021 The following is a discussion and analysis of the City of Dover’s (the City’s) financial activities for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021. Readers are encouraged to consider the information presented here in conjunction with additional information provided in our letter of transmittal, which can be found on pages 3-9 of this report, and the City’s financial statements which follow this section. Financial Highlights The City’s assets and deferred outflows of resources exceeded its liabilities and deferred inflows of resources by $251.0 million (net position). Included in this amount is a positive $22.0 million balance in “unrestricted net position”. The total Net Position represents the funds available to meet the City’s ongoing obligations to citizens and creditors. The general government reported an unrestricted deficit of $8.3 million and the business-type activities, Water, Wastewater and Electric funds, reported a positive $30.3 million unrestricted net position. The difference between the unrestricted amounts and the total net position is $229.1 million, of which $74.5 million is restricted primarily for debt and capital construction purposes, and $154.6 million is net investment in capital assets. Total Assets increased for both the governmental and business-type activities in the amount of $2.0 million and $6.2 respectively. Deferred Outflows for the governmental activities decreased $0.4 million and for the business-type activities it decreased $0.9 million. Deferred Inflows increased for both the governmental and business- type activities by $12.1 million and $4.8 million respectively. Liabilities also decreased for both the governmental activities business-type activities by $22.7 million and $8.8 million respectively. • For governmental activities, the city reported: a decrease of $3.3 million invested in capital assets, a decrease in restricted net assets of $0.1 million, and an increase of $15.4 million in unrestricted net position. As a result of its operations, the city recognized a positive change in net position of governmental activities of $12.2 million. The current year’s change in net position is $4.6 million higher than the previous years’ change in net position and is primarily due to decreases in expenses across most functions of government totaling $2.3 million a $2.1 million increase in revenues from the prior year as well as an increase in transfers of $0.3 million. • For business-type activities the city reported: a decrease of $3.3 million invested in capital assets, an increase in restricted net position of $3.1 million and an increase of $9.5 million in unrestricted net position. As a result of its operations, the city recognized a positive change in net position of business-type activities of $9.3 million, which is a decrease from last years’ positive change of $15.0 million driven primarily by reductions of total revenues of $6.1 million. Additionally, there was a net decrease of $0.4 million for charges for services for water, wastewater and electric as well as a reduction of $1.4 million in Capital Grants and Contributions. Other contributing factors were a $0.5 million loss on sale of assets and a significant reduction of earnings on investments totaling $3.8 million. Total expenses decreased in the amount of $0.6 million substantially driven by a decrease in electric expenses of $0.9 million offset by an increase in water and wastewater expenses of $0.4 million. 63 29

2021 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Financial Section – Part B – Management’s Discussion and Analysis Item 3. Overview of the Financial Statements This discussion and analysis section is intended to serve as an introduction to the City’s Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR). The ACFR consists primarily of three required components: 1) management’s discussion and analysis (this section), 2) the basic financial statements; and 3) required supplementary information. The ACFR also includes optional supplementary information that provides summary and detail level information, and a statistical section. The basic financial statements are presented in two categories that present different views of the City’s financial condition: • The two government-wide financial statements (pages 47-48) provide both long-term and short-term information about the City’s overall financial position and operations. • The remaining (pages 49-57) fund financial statements focus on specific activities of City government, reporting the City’s operations in more detail than the government-wide statements. The City financial statements can be divided into three categories: governmental funds, proprietary funds, and fiduciary funds. - The Governmental fund statements (pages 49-52) tell how general government services, like community services, planning, public safety, and public works, were financed in the short term as well as what remains for future spending. - Proprietary fund statements (pages 53-55) offer short and long-term financial information about the activities the government operates like businesses, which for the City of Dover are the Electric, Water & Wastewater Funds. - The Fiduciary fund statements (pages 56-57) provide information about the financial relationships in which the City acts solely as a trustee or custodian for the benefit of others, to whom the resources belong. The City is the trustee, or fiduciary, for its Employee and Police Pension plans and Other Post-Employment Benefits plan and acts in a custodial capacity for the Fourth of July Celebration Committee, and Dover Days Celebration Fund, none of which are component units of the City. All the City’s Fiduciary activities are reported in separate Statements of Fiduciary Net Position and Changes in Fiduciary Net Position. We exclude these activities from the City’s other financial statements because the City may not use these assets to finance its operations. The City is responsible for ensuring that the assets reported in these funds are used for their intended purposes. The financial statements also include notes (pages 61-121) that explain some of the information in the financial statements and provide more detailed data. The statements are followed by a section of required supplementary information (pages 125-135) that further explains and supports the information in the financial statements. Other supplementary information includes details on non-major funds and other information that can be found on pages 139 through 169. 64 30

The statement of net position includes all the City of Dover’s assets, liabilities, and deferred inflows and outflows of resources with the difference reported as net position. Net position is one way to measure the City’s financial health or position. Over time, increases or decreases in the City’s net position is an indicator of whether its financial health is improving or deteriorating, respectively. To assess the overall health of the City, one needs to consider additional non-financial factors such as changes in the City’s property tax base and the condition of the City’s physical assets and infrastructure. The government-wide financial statements of the City are divided into two categories: • Governmental activities—Most of the City’s basic services are included here, such as general government, public safety, planning and code enforcement, public works, library and recreation, community and economic development, central services, and financial administration. Property taxes, business licenses, permits, sanitation fees, fines, utility transfers and state and federal grants finance most of these activities. • Business-type activities—The City charges fees to customers to help it cover the costs of certain services it provides. The City’s electric, water, and wastewater services are included here. 66 32

2021 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Financial Section – Part B – Management’s Discussion and Analysis Item 3. Fund Financial Statements The fund financial statements provide more detailed information about the City’s most significant funds— not the City as a whole. Funds are accounting devices that the City uses to keep track of specific sources of funding and spending for specific purposes. Some funds are required by State law and by covenants. The City Council may also establish other funds to control and manage spending for other purposes. The City has three kinds of funds: • Governmental Funds - Most of the City’s basic services are included in governmental funds, which focus on (1) how cash and other financial assets that can readily be converted to cash flow in and out, and (2) the balances left at year end that are available for spending. Consequently, the governmental funds statements provide a detailed short-term view that helps one determine whether there are more or fewer financial resources that can be spent soon to finance the City’s programs. Because this information does not encompass the additional long-term focus of the government-wide statements, we provide additional information on a separate schedule, which explains the relationship (or differences) between them. - Governmental Fund Balance classifications are reported to the extent to which they are constrained as promulgated by Governmental Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 54. - The City’s General Fund is the only governmental fund considered to be a major fund under the requirements of Governmental Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 34. • Proprietary Funds – Services for which the City charges customers a fee, are generally reported in proprietary funds. Proprietary funds, like the government-wide statements, provide both long- and short-term financial information. - The City’s enterprise funds (one type of proprietary fund) are the same as its business-type activities, but provide more detail and additional information, such as cash flows. - The City’s Electric enterprise fund is considered a major fund under the requirements of GASB Statement No. 34. - The City’s Water & Wastewater funds are considered non-major funds under the requirements of GASB Statement No. 34. • Fiduciary Funds – The City is responsible for certain assets which are held for the benefit of parties outside the government. The City is responsible for ensuring that the assets reported in these funds are used for their intended purposes. All the City’s fiduciary activities are reported separately in a statement of fiduciary net position and a statement of changes in fiduciary net position. We exclude these activities from the City’s government-wide financial statements because the City cannot use these assets to finance its operations. 67 33

Governmental net position increased by $12.2 million; this is an increase of $4.6 million from the prior years’ positive change in net position of $7.6 million. Total revenues of $33.2 million were more than the prior year by $2.1 million. The increase in revenues is primarily due to increases in: property tax receipts and transfer tax receipts, which exceeded the FY20 revenues by $3.3 million. The increases were partially offset by decreases in investment earnings, Operating Grants and Contributions, and Capital Grants and Contributions totaling $1.2 million. Charges for Services remained constant at $9.7 million. Total expenses of $32.1 million reflects a decrease from the prior year of $2.1 million across all but two 69 35

The decrease in expenditures is driven by decreases in expenditures for general governmental, public safety and law enforcement, and library and recreation services. Central services and financial administration expenses remained constant. The chart that follows allocates revenues to program costs as applicable. It shows that some City functions are in part self-supporting either through customer charges or inter-fund receipts through the utilities (presented in millions of dollars): Expenses, Program Revenue & Interfund Receipts - Governmental Activities $16 $15.1 $14 $12 $10 $8.5 Millions $8 $6 $5.2 $4.8 $4.0 $4 $3.3 $2.7 $2.6 $2.4 $2 $1.4 $1.2 $0.9 $1.0 $0.5 $0.8 $0.5 $0 General Public Safety Public Works Library & Community & Central Services Financial Government Recreation Economic Administration Development Interfund Receipts Revenues Expenses 70 36

2021 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Financial Section – Part B – Management’s Discussion and Analysis Item 3. The following chart shows the sources of funding for program costs for the last fiscal year. As can be seen, a substantial portion of funding for governmental operations is provided by property taxes, charges for services and transfers from the utilities. Revenues by Source - Governmental Activities Interfund Receipts 10% Charges for Services 20% Utility Transfer In 23% Operating Grants and Contributions 7% Capital Grants and Contributions 0% Property Taxes Transfer Taxes 30% 10% Business-Type Activities The business-type activities generated an increase in net position of $9.3 million, which was $5.7 million less than the previous year’s change in net position of $15.0 million. The decrease was primarily due to the combination of $6.1 million in total revenue decreases offset by expense reductions totaling $0.6 million. Transfers included $1.0 million transferred out of the water & wastewater funds and $10.0 million out of the electric fund to the general fund. The indirect expense allocation decreased by $0.1 million. The water utility realized a positive change in net position of approximately $1.9 million an increase of less than $0.1 million. Operating revenues increased by $0.5 million primarily due to an increase in rent revenues of $0.2 million, an increase in water fees of $0.2 million, and increases in State Grants and miscellaneous income of $0.1 million compared to the previous year. There was a system-wide decrease in consumption for water which in turn resulted in lower billable usage of approximately 175 million total gallons. Consumption decreases were primarily driven by customer usage. The billing rate in the water division was changed from the previous year by adding tiers to inside and outside city customers with the rates as follows: inside city customer tiers went from $3.00 per 1,000 gal to $2.49 for first 6,000 gal, $3.11 for 6001 – 100,000 gal, and tier 3 is $3.74 for over 100,000 gal; outside city customer tiers went from $4.50 per 1,000 gal to $3.74 for first 6,000 gal, $4.67 for 6,001 – 100,000 gal and tier 3 is $5.60 for over 100,000 gal. These changes resulted in an increase of approximately $0.2 million in Water fees revenue. Operating expenses in the water fund decreased by $0.5 million, which was driven mostly by a $0.3 million 71 37

2021 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Financial Section – Part B – Management’s Discussion and Analysis Item 3. decrease in water treatment division expenses and a reduction of water division expenses by $0.3 million due to OPEB and Pension expense entries which were credits due to the substantial gains each had in investments within the fiscal year. General Administration expense also decreased because of a reduction in the Interfund Service fee. Offsetting increases aggregating $0.2 million were in the water engineering division, depreciation, and retiree healthcare costs. The increase in the engineering division was primarily due to an increase in contractual services for an update to the water master plan in the amount of $0.1 million. Finally, other contributors to the increase in net position was the reduction of nonoperating revenues and expenses of $1.1 million and transfers out of the fund of $0.15 million due to the funding of the ERP system was finished in the prior fiscal year. The wastewater utility realized a positive change in net position of approximately $0.9 million; a decrease from the prior year of $0.9 million. Operating revenues increased by just under $0.8 million primarily due to an increase in: wastewater fees of $0.6 million, sewer adjustment and ground water adjustment fees of $0.2 million offset by a decrease in Impact fee revenue of $0.2 million. There was a system-wide increase in consumption for wastewater which in turn resulted in higher billable usage of approximately 28 million total gallons. Consumption increases were primarily driven by customer usage. The billing rates in the wastewater division were all increased from the previous year except for the Kent County Sewer Treatment Fees rate – which is set by the County. The rates were increased as follows: Wastewater per 1,000-gal charge went from $2.65 to $2.84, Wastewater per 1,000-gal charge for outside city customers went from $3.98 to $4.25, Wastewater Customer charge went from $2.50 to $5.00, and Kent County Sewer Adjustment (I&I flows) increased from $1.50 to $1.61 per gal. Operating expenses in the wastewater fund increased from the prior year by $0.9 million. The driving factor to the increase in operating expense was a $1.0 million increase in Kent County wastewater treatment expense offset by decreases in the wastewater and engineering divisions totaling $0.2 million. Cost decreases were due to year end OPEB and Pension entries which reflected substantial investment gains. Finally, other contributors to the increase in net position was the reduction of transfers out of the fund by $0.15 million due to the funding of the ERP system was finished in the prior fiscal year. The electric utility realized a positive change in net position of just short of $6.6 million. Operating revenues decreased by $1.6 million attributed to decreases in electric revenue for all customer classes totaling $2.4 million except for residential revenue which increased by $1.1 million compared to the prior year. This is due to the pandemic where most people were home and businesses were closed. More kwh was generated for residential customers which has a lower rate and explains the increase of kwh with lower revenues. Additionally, there was a reduction in miscellaneous receipts of $0.3 million driven by lower billable customer installations and one-time miscellaneous receipts totaling $0.5 million offset by an increase in DEMA Grants $0.2 million due to storm Isaias in August of 2020. Operating Expenses in the Electric Fund decreased by about $3.2 million. A significant $2.7 million reduction in power supply and generation costs, coupled with decreases in all divisions as follows: $0.5 million in transmission and distribution, $0.2 million in engineering, $0.2 million in metering, and $0.1 million in systems operations division. The decreases were partially offset by an increase of $1.2 million in General Administration which was driven primarily by costs borne by the capital improvement fund that were not capitalized as an asset. As with the water and wastewater utility, all divisional expense reductions from prior year are realized due to year end OPEB and Pension expense entries recording investment gains realized within the year. Finally, nonoperating expenses were $5.9 million higher than the prior year primarily due to increased distribution to customers of $2.3 million and a reduction in fair value of investments of $2.9 million which reduced the significant increase in Operating income of $22.3 million to round out the positive change in net position of $6.6 million, which was $4.3 million less than the prior year’s positive change of $10.9 million. 72 38

Operating Revenues, Expenses and Transfers - Business-Type Activities $90.0 $80 Operating $80.0 $68 Revenues & Millions $70.0 Transfers $60.0 $50.0 Operating Expenses & $40.0 Transfers $30.0 $20.0 $7 $10 $9 $10.0 $5 $- Electric Revenue Fund Water Fund Wastewater Fund Financial Analysis of the City’s Funds Governmental Funds As noted earlier, the City uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with finance- related legal requirements. Government funds focus on expendable resources and near-term inflows and outflows of those resources. As such, fund balance is generally a good indicator of net resources available for spending at the end of the fiscal year, subject to any stated restrictions on its use. The combined fund balance of the City’s governmental funds as of June 30, 2021, was over $19.5 million. This represented an increase of over $5.6 million during the year. Approximately 54% of the combined fund balances, $10.3 million, constitutes unassigned fund balance, which is available to meet the City’s current and future needs. The remainder of fund balance is non-spendable, restricted, committed or assigned to indicate that it is not available for operational spending because it is constrained by legally enforceable contracts, other governmental agreements and legislation, City Council resolution, management, or it is not convertible to cash within a reasonable period of time. Further detail of fund balances is presented in the Notes to the Basic Financial Statements in Note 7. The General Fund is the primary operating fund of the City, accounting for such activities as general government, public safety, public works, library, recreation, planning, community and economic development, central services, and financial administration. The General Fund balance as of June 30, 2021, was $19.1 million. Revenue decreased by $1.2 million, primarily due to decreases in grant revenue, investment income, police extra duty, library revenues – county reimbursement, and miscellaneous services; other less significant decreases were in library – general revenues, police fines, franchise fees, and property tax revenue which in aggregate fell short of the FY20 revenues by $1.8 million. The general fund revenue decreases were partially offset by $0.6 million of increases in license 73 39

2021 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Financial Section – Part B – Management’s Discussion and Analysis Item 3. and permit revenue, sanitation fees, and court of chancery fees when comparing to the prior year. Total expenses of $38.4 million reflect a decrease from the prior year of $1.1 million, which was primarily driven by decreases in expense of: $0.6 million in recreational services, $0.5 million in public safety and law enforcement, $0.4 million in streets and sanitation, $0.2 million in library services and less significant decreases in engineering services, financial administration, interest and fiscal charges, and insurance totaling less than $0.1 million collectively. The expense decreases were offset by $0.3 million in increases to public works, $0.2 million in general government and $0.2 million in retiree health care, while minor differences in all other functional areas round out the expense variance. Proprietary Funds The City’s proprietary funds provide the same type of information found in the government- wide financial statements, but in more detail. As of June 30, 2021, the water fund has a net position of $34.6 million, of which $4.6 million is unrestricted. The fund’s net position increased $1.9 million as explained on page 37. As of June 30, 2021, the wastewater fund had a net position of $33.8 million, of which $1.1 million is unrestricted. The fund’s net position increased $0.9 million during the year as explained on page 38. As of June 30, 2021, the electric revenue fund has a net position of $137.6 million, of which $24.5 million is unrestricted. This fund experienced an increase in net position of $6.6 million during the year as explained on page 38. General Fund Budgetary Highlights During this fiscal year, the City Council amended the budget three times. The budget amendment ordinances were primarily for the following purposes: 1. To re-appropriate budget balances for ongoing capital projects. 2. To amend the grant budgets and reserve accounts for the actual results from the prior fiscal year and to adjust program revenues and expenses based on changes in program revenues and expenses based on actual amounts. 3. To amend revenue and expense accounts based on actual experience during fiscal year 2021. The General Fund financials in the Governmental Funds Balance Sheet (page 49) and Statement of Revenues, Expenditures and Changes in Fund Balances of Governmental Funds (page 51) include both the General Fund operating activities and the Governmental Capital Project Fund activities.

Balances-Budget and Actual is included in Part E – Supplementary Information (page 142). General Fund budgeted expenditures were revised to reflect an aggregate increase of $0.1 million. The expenditure decreases were primarily to Stormwater, Streets, and City Manager totaling $0.2 million with minor decreases in Tax Assessor, Library, Fleet Maintenance, and Planning. Operating divisions with budgeted increases were Life Safety, Sanitation, Engineering, Procurement and Inventory, Human Resources, Public Works – Administration, Public Inspections, and City Clerk totaling $0.2 million and offsets the decreases. Additionally, there were three non-divisional budgeted expenditures that increased and are as follows: insurance, Miscellaneous grant expense and a transfer to the library, no other expenditure line-item budgets were changed. Actual revenues and other financing sources received were above the final budgeted amounts in the General Fund by more than $2.4 million for the current fiscal year. The budgeted revenues were revised to reflect a small increase of $0.1 million for a transfer in from other reserves and a minor increase in miscellaneous grants. There were no other revenue line items revised. Capital Asset and Debt Administration At the end of the current fiscal year, the City’s governmental and proprietary funds had invested $59.5 million and $130.9 million, respectively, in a variety of capital assets and infrastructure, as reflected in the following schedule, which exhibits a net decrease of $2.2 million for governmental activities and a net decrease of $4.5 million for the business-type activities. Most of the decrease in assets reported within both the Governmental and Business-Type Activities is attributable to a thorough internal audit and subsequent disposal of assets that were either replaced or disposed of in prior years, but were never removed from the asset records, or did not qualify as a Capital asset based on our current definitions. For the Governmental Activities, the decrease in assets reported was in land ($0.1 million), equipment ($0.2 million), buildings ($0.1 million), land improvements ($0.07 million), and in furniture & fixtures ($0.06 million). The value of construction projects that remained open as of June 30, 2021 increased by $0.9 million, and $0.2 million of vehicles were sold at auction. The decrease in Business- Type Activities is due primarily to the internal audit mentioned above, with Electric assets of $2.6 million found to be obsolete. Additionally, this year included the accelerated depreciation for the McKee Run power plant decommissioning. The water fund added $8.3 million, the wastewater fund added $1.3 million, and the Electric fund added $2.0 million in completed construction projects. Additional detailed data for all capital assets of the City is presented in the Notes to the Basic Financial Statements in Note 4. The following schedule is presented in millions of dollars. 75 41

Economic Factors and Next Year’s Budgets and Rates The City developed the fiscal year 2021 budget in accordance with the City’s financial policies ensuring all budgets are balanced and reserve requirements were adhered to. The following changes over fiscal year 2021 were incorporated into the fiscal year 2022 budget. • The FY22 General Fund budget includes a property tax increase of $ .055 per $100 of assessed value on the taxable properties to support the City’s taxpayers and citizens beyond FY22. This increase assisted the City in: o Maintaining the increases in staff for critical service levels for public works, add five new police officers, allow for the additional costs to maintain/support the Fire Department with additional Fire Relief Dispatchers in order to cover services provided. o The General Governmental Capital Project Fund was able to be restored to prior levels this to continue to address aging facilities, park improvements, drainage and stormwater basin management and upgrades to many of the City facilities. This helps the City maintain a reasonable replacement schedule so as not to compile these costs into future years. o City equipment is also an important aspect of this budget cycle as many significant pieces of equipment were at end of life to mention just a few to include: (a) ’12 Street Sweeper; (b) ’06 Jet Vacuum Truck; (c) Two (2) Trash Trucks (d) ‘95 Case Backhoe; (e) approximately nine (9) police vehicles and (f) several pieces of fire apparatus. • The Water and Wastewater Fund saw another year of rate increases, this the second of a four- year plan to adjust rates. The additional revenues from each of the respective and future years will assist with infrastructure improvements and help to establish a prudent reserve over time. • This budget keeps the Electric Fund PCA credit for electric rates at the FY 21 Level ($0.007/kwh returned to all customers). • This budget incorporates the addition of a few select positions the majority of which fall under the General Fund to include: (a) two positions (2) within Customer Service; (b) one (1) in Facilities; (c) one in Information Technology; (d) five positions in the Police department; and (e) three (3) electric groundworkers. • The City continues to discuss the establishment of a Stormwater Utility. This fund has been discussed for several years and will be established to provide a designated source of revenue to fund the City’s stormwater management costs and capital stormwater system infrastructure costs, of which are currently be funded within the General Fund. • In March of 2020, the World Health Organization declared the spread of COVID-19 a worldwide pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic is having significant effects on global markets, supply chains, businesses, and communities. On March 11, 2021 The American Rescue Plan Act was signed into law providing funding for state and local governments to respond to the public health emergency and its negative economic impacts. The City of Dover anticipates receiving federal funding from this program. • Decommissioning of McKee Run Power Plant #3 during continues. The City continues to closely monitor the local economy and its impact on growth and revenues. Revenue enhancements, rate increases, and potential cost reductions will continue to be reviewed in order to maintain the City’s financial policies. 77 43

City of Dover, Delaware Reconciliation of the Balance Sheet of Governmental Funds To the Statement of Net Position June 30, 2021 Amounts reported for governmental activities in the statement of net position (page 47) are different because: Total fund balances for governmental funds (Page 49) 19,517,617 Capital assets used in governmental activities are not financial resources and, therefore, are not reported in the funds. 59,535,579 Other assets are not available to pay for current period expenditures and, therefore, are reported as unavailable revenue in the funds.

Interest on long-term debt is not accrued in governmental funds, but rather is recognized as an expenditure when due. All liabilities both current and long-term are reported in the statement of net position. Compensated absences represent amounts accrued for sick leave for those employees who are vested and accrued vacation for all employees. The Net Pension Liability and OPEB Liability are not a use of current financial resources, and therefore, are not reported in the governmental funds.

2021 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Financial Section – Part C – Basic Financial Statements Item 3. City of Dover, Delaware Reconciliation of the Statement of Revenues, Expenditures and Changes in Fund Balances of Governmental Funds to the Statement of Activities For the Year Ended June 30, 2021 Amounts reported for governmental activities in the statement of activities (page 48) are different because: Net change in fund balances--total governmental funds (Page 51) $ 5,606,099 Governmental fund reports capital outlays as expenditures. However, in the statement of activities the cost of these assets is allocated over their estimated useful lives and reported as depreciation expense. This is the amount by which capital outlays exceeded depreciation in the current period. Capitalization of net capital asset expenditures including CIP $ 1,959,010 Loss on assets disposed of during the year (189,094) Current year depreciation (3,871,919) (2,102,003) Governmental funds report the repayment of principal of general long-term debt as an expenditure but the repayment reduces the liability in the statement of net position. 335,760 Revenues that are not available to pay for current period expenditures are not reported as revenues in the funds. 307,401 The issuance of long-term debt (e.g., bonds, leases) provides current financial resources to governmental funds, while the repayment of the principal of long-term debt consumes the current financial resources of governmental funds. Neither transaction, however, has any effect on net assets. Also, governmental funds report the effect of issuance costs, premiums, discounts, and similar items when debt is first issued, whereas these amounts are deferred and amortized in the statement of activities. This amount is the net effect of these differences in the treatment of long-term debt and related items. 2021 General Obligation Bonds (1,563,000) Governmental funds do not report GAAP related pension entries that record the Net Pension Liability. The following is the current year change in Net Pension Liability for the Governmental funds: 10,699,493 Changes in Deferred Inflows and Deferred Outflows related to pension entries reported in the Statement of Activities. (8,199,289) Decreases in operating expenses due to the decrease in OPEB expense for the amortization of deferred outflows and inflows of resources related to the net OPEB liability. (4,402,174) Under the modified accrual basis of accounting used in the governmental funds, expenditures are not recognized for the transactions that are not normally paid with expendable available financial resources. In the statement of activities, however, which is presented on the accrual basis, expenses and liabilities are reported regardless of when financial resources are available. In addition, assets are not recognized in governmental funds unless they represent current financial resources but are recognized in the statement of activities as they accrue. The following differences, therefore, occur between the statement of activities and the governmental funds. Increase in compensated absences $ (156,886) Bond interest accrual (24,624) Decrease in Net OPEB Liability 11,113,763 10,932,253 An internal service fund is used by the City to charge the costs of workers' compensation insurance to individual funds. The change in net position of the internal service fund is transferred to the governmental funds and amounts attributable to internal charges are then allocated to functional expenditures. Net revenue is allocated back to respective functions and business type activities, as appropriate. 557,410 Change in net position of governmental activities (Page 48) $ 12,171,950 The notes to financial statements are an integral part of this statement. 86 52

2021 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Financial Section – Part C – Notes to the Basic Financial Statements Item 3. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2021 1. FINANCIAL REPORTING ENTITY A. The City of Dover, Delaware The City of Dover, Delaware (the City) was incorporated in 1829 and is a municipal corporation governed by an elected mayor and a nine-member council. The accompanying financial statements present the financial position and operating results for fiscal year ended June 30, 2021. B. Reporting Entity In evaluating how to define the reporting entity for financial reporting purposes, management has considered all potential component units. The decision to include a potential component unit was made by applying the criteria set forth in Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States of America (GAAP). The criterion used is that set forth by Statement of Governmental Accounting Standards (GASB) number 14 and as updated by GASB 61 which defines the reporting entity as the primary government and those component units for which the primary government is financially accountable. Financial accountability is defined as appointment of a voting majority of the component unit's board and either a) the ability to impose will by the primary government, or b) the possibility that the component unit will provide a financial benefit to or impose a financial burden on the primary government. Based upon this criterion, the following is a brief review of each potential component unit addressed in defining the government’s reporting entity. Included within the reporting entity: The City provides many services as follows - police protection, street maintenance, sanitation, storm water maintenance, recreation, library, community development, public improvements, planning, safety inspections, electric generation and distribution, water and wastewater services, legislative services and general administration, including employee benefits. These functions are part of the City’s daily operations and therefore are not legally separate component units. Not included within the reporting entity: The City joined the State of Delaware Police Pension Plan for uniformed police officers employed by the City after September 1, 1982. The plan is completely managed by the State of Delaware and, therefore, is not included in the financial statements. The Robbins Hose Volunteer Fire Company, Downtown Dover Partnership, and the Capital School District are not included within the financial reporting entity because they do not meet the criteria for inclusion set forth by GAAP. 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The accounting policies of the City conform to generally accepted accounting principles as applicable to governments. A summary of the more significant policies follows: 61 95

2021 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Financial Section – Part C – Notes to the Basic Financial Statements Item 3. A. Basis of presentation Government-wide Statements: The statement of net position and the statement of activities include the financial activities of the overall government, except for fiduciary activities. Individual funds are not displayed but the statements distinguish governmental activities, generally funded by taxes and other City revenue, from business-type activities (BTAs), generally funded in whole or in part with fees charged to external users. Eliminations have been made for the doubling-up effect of certain internal activities, however, interfund services provided and used are not eliminated in the process of consolidation. The government-wide statement of activities presents a comparison between direct program expenses and program revenues for each function of the City’s governmental activities and for each of the City’s identifiable business-type activities. Direct expenses are those that are specifically associated with a program, function, or activity. Program revenues include a) charges paid by the recipients or beneficiaries of goods or services offered by the programs and b) grants and contributions that are restricted for meeting the operational or capital requirements of programs. Revenues that are not classified as program revenues, including all taxes, are presented as general revenues. The City allocates the costs of certain governmental services to the costs of business-type activities (indirect expense allocation). These costs include allocated amounts of city management, centralized budgetary formulation and oversight, accounting, financial reporting, payroll, fleet and building maintenance, procurement contracting and oversight, investing and cash management, personnel services, etc. The allocations are charged to the BTAs based on the use of these services. As a matter of policy, the costs of certain governmental functions are not allocated to the business-type activities such as tax assessor, planning and zoning, public safety, library and recreation and community services. Fund Financial Statements: The accounts of the City are organized based on funds, each of which is considered a separate accounting entity. The operations of each fund are accounted for with a separate set of self-balancing accounts that comprise its assets, liabilities, deferred inflows/outflows, fund equity, revenues and expenditures or expenses, as appropriate. Government resources are allocated to and accounted for in individual funds based upon the purposes for which they are to be spent and how spending activities are controlled. The fund financial statements provide information about the City’s funds, including fiduciary funds. The emphasis of fund financial statements is on major governmental and enterprise funds, each displayed in a separate column. All remaining governmental funds are aggregated and reported as non-major funds. The City reports the following major governmental fund: General Fund The General Fund is the general operating fund of the City. It is used to account for all financial resources except those required to be accounted for in another fund. 62 96

2021 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Financial Section – Part C – Notes to the Basic Financial Statements Item 3. The City reports the following major proprietary fund: Electric Revenue Fund This fund incorporates all transactions related to the transmission and distribution, as well as generation of electricity. The City has contracted with both The Energy Authority and North American Energy Services to manage the City’s power supply and generation assets. The City reports the following non-major funds: Water Fund This fund accounts for transactions related to water services. The City also holds lease agreements with cell phone companies for equipment placed on City water towers. Wastewater Fund This fund accounts for transactions related to wastewater services, including the payment of fees to Kent County for the treatment of sewage. Internal Service Fund The City has created one internal service fund to account for the activities related to self-insured Workers’ Compensation. Receipts are provided from contributions by the City’s general fund and it’s three enterprise funds. Expenses are related to payment of claims, premiums, and administration costs. Actuarial analyses are completed every three (3) years to ensure sufficient reserves for claims for the Workers’ Compensation Fund. The last analysis was done on June 30, 2019. Special Revenue Funds The City has ten (10) Special Revenue Funds to account for proceeds of specific revenue sources that are restricted or committed to expenditure for specified purposes other than debt service or capital projects. Fiduciary Funds Fiduciary funds consist of trust and custodial funds and are used to report assets held by the City in a trustee or custodial capacity for other purposes. These funds are, therefore, not available to support City programs. The City is the trustee for the City’s two pension plans; the Police Pension Fund, and the Employee Pension Fund, as well as the Other Post-Employment Benefit Trust. The activity of these plans are accounted for in the Basic Financial Statements. Custodial Funds Custodial funds are used to account for assets held by the City as a custodian for individuals, private organizations, or other governments. The City has two (2) custodial funds. The City acts as the receiving and paying agent for the Fourth of July Celebration Committee and the Dover Days Celebration Committee. 63 97

2021 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Financial Section – Part C – Notes to the Basic Financial Statements Item 3. B. Basis of Accounting and Measurement Focus Basis of accounting refers to when revenues and expenditures or expenses are recognized in the accounts and reported in the financial statements. Basis of accounting relates to the timing of the measurements made, regardless of the measurement focus applied. All governmental funds are accounted for using the modified accrual basis of accounting and the current financial resources measurement focus. Their revenues are recognized when they become measurable and available as net current assets. Revenues that are susceptible to accrual include property taxes, grants, and billable service charges. All other revenues are accounted for when they are received. Property taxes are recognized in the fiscal period during which they are levied, provided they are “available;” meaning they are collected in the current period or are expected to be collected soon enough thereafter to satisfy liabilities in the current period. The City considers all revenues reported in the governmental funds to be available if the revenues are collected within sixty days after year- end, except for trash collection, which has a thirty-day collection period. Expenditures are generally recognized under the modified accrual basis of accounting when the related fund liability is incurred. The exception to this general rule is principal and interest on general long-term debt which is recognized when due. Also, claims and judgments and compensated absences are recognized as expenditures to the extent they have matured. General capital asset acquisitions are reported as expenditures in governmental funds. Proceeds of general long-term debt and acquisitions under capital leases are reported as other financing sources. The government-wide financial statements as well as all proprietary and fiduciary funds are accounted for using the accrual basis of accounting and the economic resources measurement focus. A reconciliation of the governmental fund financial statements prepared on the modified accrual basis of accounting to the government-wide financial statements prepared on the accrual basis of accounting is also provided on pages 50 & 52. The types of transactions included in program revenues in the government-wide statement of activities include charges for services, operating grants, and capital grants. Operating income reported in the proprietary fund financial statements includes revenue and expenses related to the continuing operations of the funds. Charges to customers for sales and services constitute the principal operating revenue for proprietary funds. Principal operating expenses are the costs of providing goods and services, which include purchased power, administrative expenses, and depreciation of capital assets. All revenues and expenses not meeting this definition are reported as non-operating revenues and expenses. 64 98

2021 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Financial Section – Part C – Notes to the Basic Financial Statements Item 3. C. New Pronouncements GASB Statement No. 84, “Fiduciary Activities.” Issued in January 2017, the requirements of this Statement enhances consistency and comparability by (1) establishing specific criteria for identifying activities that should be reported as fiduciary activities, and (2) clarifying whether and how business- type activities should report their fiduciary activities. Greater consistency and comparability enhance the value provided by the information reported in financial statements for assessing government accountability and stewardship. A change in accounting principle resulted in the Downtown Dover partnership fund to be removed as a custodial fund as it did not meet the criteria to be reported and balances previously recorded as liabilities in agency funds to now be recorded as net position in custodial funds. Net position balances of $11,287 and $12,954 were recorded for the 4th of July and Dover Day’s Celebration funds, respectively. The effect of the restatement as of July 1, 2020 was $24,241. GASB Statement No. 90, “Majority Equity Interest – an amendment of GASB Statements No. 14 and No. 61.” The requirements of this Statement improve consistency in the measurement and comparability of the financial statement presentation of majority equity interests in legally separate organizations, and improve the relevance of financial statement information for certain component units. GASB Statement No. 98, “The Annual Comprehensive Financial Report.” Issued in October 2021, this statement establishes the term annual comprehensive financial report and its acronym ACFR. The new term and acronym replace instances of comprehensive annual financial report and its acronym in generally accepted accounting principles for state and local governments. The City early implemented the Statement in fiscal year 2021. D. Capital Assets and Long-Term Liabilities Capital assets used in Governmental Fund type operations (general capital assets) are accounted for in the government-wide financial statements rather than in the funds. Public domain ("infrastructure") general capital assets consisting of certain improvements other than buildings, including roads, bridges, curbs and gutters, streets and sidewalks, drainage systems and lighting systems, are capitalized in the government-wide financial statements along with other general capital assets. The capitalization threshold for the City’s assets is $5,000. Personal computers and related hardware valued under $5,000 are manually controlled by the Information Technology Department. All capital assets are valued at historical cost and donated capital assets are shown at acquisition value based on the developers’ cost of the infrastructure. Depreciation has been provided on general capital assets and is shown in Note 4. Depreciation has been provided over the estimated useful lives using the straight-line method. Estimated useful lives are as follows: Buildings 20 – 50 years Infrastructure 20 – 50 years Vehicles 5 – 7 years Equipment, Furniture & Fixtures 5 – 15 years 65 99

2021 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Financial Section – Part C – Notes to the Basic Financial Statements Item 3. Long-term liabilities expected to be financed from governmental funds and the long-term estimated liabilities for compensated absences are accounted for in the government-wide financial statements, but not in the governmental funds. Depreciation of all exhaustible capital assets used by proprietary funds is charged as an expense against their operations. Accumulated depreciation is shown in Note 4 of this section. Depreciation in the proprietary funds has been provided over the estimated useful lives using the straight-line method. The estimated useful lives are presented below: Building, Mains & Plant 25 – 90 years Improvements 15 – 20 years Equipment 5 – 15 years Vehicles 5 – 7 years The remaining useful life for certain buildings, vehicles, equipment, and plant assets recorded in the Electric Fund is being shortened to coincide with the estimated retirement date of the City’s principal generation assets. Capital assets are maintained substantially and reported in accordance with the Uniform System of Accounts prescribed by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) for the Electric Fund and the National Association of Regulatory Utility Commissioners (NARUC) for the Water and Wastewater Fund. E. Budget Procedures Legally adopted budgets are prepared for the General Fund, Water Fund, Wastewater Fund, Electric Revenue Fund, the Internal Service Fund, and the following non-major special revenue funds: Police Federal Grants Fund, Police State Grants Fund, Library Grants Fund, Municipal Street Aid Fund, Community Development Block Grant Fund (Federal), State Department of Transportation Grants Fund (Community Transportation), Substance Abuse Prevention Program Fund, Electronic Red-Light Safety Program Fund, Lodging Tax Fund, and the Realty Transfer Tax Fund. The General Governmental Capital Projects Fund provides for separate budgets to cover the planning and control of capital items for the governmental programs. The financial transactions of this fund are included in the financial statements of the General Fund. The Electric Improvement and Extension Fund, the Water Improvement and Extension Fund, and the Wastewater Improvement and Extension Fund are sections of each utility enterprise. These sections are required by bond resolutions. Separate budgets for these funds cover the planning and control of only the capital items of the utilities. The financial transactions of these funds are included in the financial statements of the Electric Revenue Fund, the Water Fund, and the Wastewater Fund. The City prepares the budget for the General Fund revenues on a basis consistent with the modified accrual basis. The expenditures are accounted for when the purchase orders are issued. The budget and actual schedule in the legal budget format (non-GAAP), adopted by the City for the General Fund, the City’s major governmental fund, is presented in the required supplementary information section of this report. 66 100

2021 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Financial Section – Part C – Notes to the Basic Financial Statements Item 3. Budgets for the Electric Revenue Fund, Water Fund, Wastewater Fund, and Internal Service Fund are prepared on an accrual basis. Budgets are prepared under the assumption that the principal redemption of long-term debt must be assumed by Enterprise Fund activity in conformity with the bond ordinance. The Combining General Fund Balance Sheet and Combining Statement of Revenues, Expenditures and Changes in Fund Balances of the General Fund as well as the budget and actual schedules of the other funds are also presented in the supplementary information section of this report because they are not required to be presented elsewhere. According to the City's procedures, the preceding year's ending net budgetary balances are considered as resources for the following year. The beginning balances become operating items of revenues in the budgets. Estimated ending budgetary balances provide the balancing amount for each budget. In accordance with the City’s financial policies, adopted by City Council, the General, Water, and Wastewater funds are required to maintain an 8% minimum ending budget balance and the Electric fund is required to maintain a 12% minimum. These percentages are expressed as a percentage of operating revenues, excluding the beginning budget balance. Unassigned fund balances as a percentage of current year operating revenues on a budgetary basis for the General Fund, Water Fund, Wastewater Fund, and Electric Fund are 21.8%, 22.7%, 4.5% and 28.3% respectively, and all are exceeding the financial policy maximum for each fund except for Wastewater, which is under the policy minimum. Per the Financial policy, the General Fund, Water and Electric Fund overages will be addressed in the next year’s budget. The underage for the Wastewater Fund will also be addressed in the next year’s budget. The City Manager may approve transfers of savings from completed CIP items to non-completed CIP items. Any transfers that cause the item or project to exceed its original budget 10% or greater will be communicated to City Council and the Controller/Treasurer. The City Manager may approve intra- fund transfers (i.e., within the General Fund) of up to five percent per annum, except for line items associated with salary and benefits. Budget amendments exceeding that authorized above or that affect budget balances shall be referred to City Council. (Source: City of Dover Policy Manual, Budget Administration – Policy for Operating Departments, 2014). The following activities exceeded their budget: 1. Life Safety is over budget by $1,499 due to a new position that was transferred from the Inspections department by the City Manager, thereby creating an overage. 2. The City Manager’s Office is over budget by $13,858 resulting from City Council directing the SEGAL “Study of Classification, Compensation, and Benefit System and Pay for Performance” to move forward even though it was not in the budget. 3. Debt Service exceeded the budget by $3,688 due to interest on the new HVAC loan, which was not budgeted. 4. Transfer to Cable Franchise Reserve of $14,765 was not budgeted. 5. Storm Expense of $271,253 was not budgeted. 6. Appropriation to Police Pension Fund - State Grant is over budget by $52,277 due to the receipt of State of Delaware funds exceeding the budgeted amount and then passed through to the Police Pension Fund as an expenditure. 7. Appropriation to Street Light Fund exceeded the budget by $961. 67 101

2021 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Financial Section – Part C – Notes to the Basic Financial Statements Item 3. In all cases, the increase was needed to meet operational requirements of the City. F. Major Transfers The Electric Revenue Fund, Water Fund, and Wastewater Fund annually transfer a budgeted portion of their revenues to the General Fund. Transfers are also made from the Realty Transfer Tax Fund, Municipal Street Aid Fund, Electronic Red-Light Safety Program (ERLSP) Fund and both Police Grant Funds (State & Federal) to the General Fund. The purpose of these transfers is to provide routine subsidies to the General Fund for operating functions, capital project expenditures and debt service requirements. The Lodging Tax receipts are only to be used for infrastructure, according to City Ordinance #2019-16. Therefore, amounts received in this fund are transferred to the General Capital Projects Fund. Several Special Revenue Funds represent a pass-through of revenues collected by the State of Delaware on behalf of the City or other State revenues provided for in Delaware Code. These receipts are subsequently transferred to the General Fund in support of public safety, City maintenance of State roads and other public services. Several transfers between the General Fund and the non-major governmental funds are netted in the government-wide financial statements. G. Inventories and Prepaid Items Both inventories and prepaid items are accounted for using the consumption method. Inventories are treated as operational expenditures at the time of use rather than at the time of purchase for both the governmental and proprietary funds. Prepaid items are reflective of insurance policies and commitments due on July 1 for the following fiscal year. The warehouse inventories, consisting mostly of parts and supplies, are maintained on a perpetual inventory basis. Inventories of all funds are valued at cost and net of reserves, utilizing a weighted moving average method of valuation. The City maintains inventory reserves to charge off any damaged or obsolete items. The Electric Revenue Fund maintains fuel inventory for the generating assets on a perpetual basis and utilizes the weighted average method of valuation. H. Cash and Investments The City's cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand, demand deposits and short-term investments with original maturities of three months or less from the acquisition date. Investments consist of notes and bonds issued by the United States Government and its agencies, corporate debt instruments, common stock, and open-end mutual funds. The fair value of investments is determined in accordance with GASB 72 Fair Value Measurements. 68 102

2021 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Financial Section – Part C – Notes to the Basic Financial Statements Item 3. I. Accounts Receivable Allowances for uncollectible accounts are maintained and uncollectible accounts are charged off against these allowances. The authority to write off accounts is vested with the City Council. Current balances of allowances are as follows: General Fund $604,804 Water Fund 21,259 Wastewater Fund 20,101 Electric Revenue Fund 1,061,169 J. Restricted Assets Certain assets are restricted because their use is limited by bond covenants, endowments, or other similar third-party restrictions. Restricted assets as of June 30, 2021 total $74,794,510 including cash and cash equivalents of $18,332,785 and $56,461,725 in investments. Of this amount, $704,249 is attributed to governmental activities and $74,090,261 is attributable to business-type activities. K. Unbilled Service Receivables The City follows a policy of billing for services in accordance with billing cycle procedures. All known services rendered are billed and incorporated in the books at the end of the fiscal year. L. Bond Accounts/Issuance Costs The City recognizes issuance costs in governmental funds, as well as the proprietary funds, as a current period expense in accordance with GASB 65. All unamortized bond discounts and issuance costs held by the general fund and the proprietary funds have been expensed in prior years. M. Deferred Outflows/Inflows of Resources The statement of net position, in addition to reporting assets and liabilities, reports a separate section for deferred outflows / inflows of resources. Deferred outflows / inflows of resources represent either a consumption or acquisition of net position that applies to a future period(s) and will not be recognized as an outflow / inflow (expense / revenue) of resources until that period. The City’s deferred outflows / inflows of resources are reported on the government-wide statement of net position and proprietary funds statement of net position for pension and Other Post- Employment Benefits (OPEB). For purposes of measuring the OPEB and pension liability, deferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows of resources related to OPEB and pensions, and OPEB and pension expense, information about the fiduciary net position of the OPEB and pension plans and 69 103

2021 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Financial Section – Part C – Notes to the Basic Financial Statements Item 3. additions to/deductions from their fiduciary net position have been determined on the same basis as they are reported by the City of Dover’s OPEB Trust and pension systems. For this purpose, benefit payments (including refunds of employee contributions) are recognized when due and payable in accordance with the benefit terms. The OPEB and pension systems report investments at fair value. Deferred inflows of resources related to OPEB and pensions are explained in Notes 15 and 17, respectively. The City also reports unavailable revenue as a deferred inflow of resources only in the governmental funds balance sheet, which arises only under a modified accrual basis of accounting that qualifies for reporting in this category. The governmental funds report unavailable revenues from property taxes, demolitions, general billings, grass cutting, police extra-duty, and State grants. N. Fund Balances and Net Position Governmental fund balances are reported based on a hierarchy of constraints on the nature or specific purpose to which the funds can be spent. The classifications of fund balance are as follows: • The non-spendable fund balance classification includes amounts that cannot be spent either because they are in a non-spendable form or because they are legally or contractually required to be maintained intact. • The restricted fund balance classification includes amounts that can be spent only for specific purposes defined by the City Charter, the City Code, State or Federal laws, or externally imposed conditions by grantors or creditors. • The committed fund balance classification includes amounts that can be used only for specific purposes determined by the formal action by City Council through a motion or an adopted City Ordinance which is approved by a majority vote of City Council, the City’s highest level of decision-making authority. • The assigned fund balance classification includes amounts authorized and established by City Council. The City’s financial policies as adopted by City Council includes the purpose and description of all classes of fund balance. Modifications require City Council approval. • The unassigned fund balance classification includes amounts that have not met the criteria of the previously mentioned fund balance classifications. The unassigned fund balance is available for expenditures as they are incurred. The general fund is the only fund that reports a positive unassigned fund balance amount. The City considers restricted, committed, or assigned amounts to have been spent when a related expenditure is incurred. Proprietary funds report net position in three categories: 1) Net investment in capital assets 2) Restricted and 3) Unrestricted Fund balances and net position are further explained in Note 7. 70 104

2021 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Financial Section – Part C – Notes to the Basic Financial Statements Item 3. O. Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. P. Net Position Flow Assumption Sometimes the City will fund outlays for a specific purpose from both restricted (e.g., restricted bond or grant proceeds) and unrestricted resources. To calculate the amounts reported as restricted and unrestricted net position and fund balance in the government-wide, proprietary fund, and governmental fund financial statements, a flow assumption must be made about the order in which the resources are applied. It is the City’s policy to consider restricted net position to have been depleted before unrestricted net position is applied. 3. DEPOSITS AND INVESTMENTS A. Cash in Bank and Cash Equivalents Custodial credit risk – deposits. The City’s depository institutions collateralize the City’s deposits over and above those covered by the $250,000 FDIC Insurance limit with specific securities, which are ‘marked to market’ daily against the aggregate balances. The market value of the collateral is at a minimum of or equal to 102% of the amount of applicable deposits. Collateral consists solely of full faith and credit obligations of the United States Government or fixed rate obligations of agencies or instruments of the United States Government. On June 30, 2021, the carrying amount of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents totaled $33,642,927, and the bank cash balances totaled $33,659,715. The carrying amount of restricted cash totaled $18,332,785 and the bank cash balances on restricted accounts totaled $18,332,785 and $3,363,434 of the bank balance was exposed to custodial credit risk because it was uninsured and uncollateralized. Fiduciary funds cash and cash equivalents carrying value of $11,201,965 included $11,201,628 of cash deposits. The restricted deposits are held by the City for bond-related transactions, special purpose operating and capital grants. B. Investments The City Council has adopted an investment policy which is reviewed every two years and updated as needed to meet best practices. The Pension Boards have adopted their own distinct investment policies to govern the Pension Trust funds because the objectives differ from those of the City. The City’s investments are segregated from the Pension Trust investments for clarity. As of June 30, 2021, the City had the following investments: 71 105

2021 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Financial Section – Part C – Notes to the Basic Financial Statements Item 3. Investments Held by Third Party Custodian The City categorizes its fair value measurements within the fair value hierarchy established by generally accepted accounting principles. The hierarchy is based on the valuation inputs used to measure the fair value of the asset. The City’s government wide investments are held in several different investment capacities from mutual funds and certificate of deposit with a significant investment in debt securities. • Level 1 – Valuations based on unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. • Level 2 – Valuations based on quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets or identical assets or liabilities in less active markets, such as dealer or broker markets; and • Level 3 – Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable, such as pricing models, discounted cash flow models and similar techniques not based on market, exchange, dealer, or broker-traded transactions. The City recorded the following investments as of June 30, 2021: Fair Value Measurements Using: Quoted Prices Significant Weighted in Active Other Average Markets Observable Maturity for Identical Inputs Investment Type (Years) June 30, 2021 Assets (Level 1) (Level 2) Government-Wide: Investments by fair value level Debt securities: U.S. Government Treasuries 2.86 $ 22,810,066 $ - $ 22,810,066 Federal Agency Bond / Note 3.70 25,301,466 - 25,301,466 Municipal Obligations 4.27 5,407,056 - 5,407,056 Domestic Fixed Income 3.91 33,180,090 - 33,180,090 International Fixed Income 5.76 2,853,322 - 2,853,322 Federal Agency mortgage backed security* 10.28 2,384,576 627,781 1,756,795 Total Investments by fair value level 3.84 $ 91,936,576 $ 627,781 $ 91,308,795 Other Investments, at amortized cost: Money Market Mutual Funds & Equity Stock 10,273,883 Certificates of Deposit 2,420,385 Total other investments 12,694,268 Total Government-Wide Investments $ 104,630,844 Interest rate risk: As a means of limiting its exposure to fair value losses arising from rising interest rates the City’s investment policy limits U.S. Government securities and most other investments to a maximum maturity of 10 years from the date of purchase. Commercial Paper, Bankers’ Acceptances and Repurchase Agreements all have a much shorter investment period ranging from 90 days to 365 days. Short-term cash flow balances are invested up to one year. The portfolio’s weighted average maturity is 3.84 years. 72 106

2021 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Financial Section – Part C – Notes to the Basic Financial Statements Item 3. * For asset backed and Agency mortgage-backed securities, the maximum maturity shall be defined as the weighted average life (“WAL”). WAL is a convention that estimates the expected weighted amount of time, in years, for the principal amount of an issue to be fully paid. For Agency mortgage-backed securities, WAL shall be limited to 10 years, measured at the settlement date, provided by Bloomberg Financial Markets. As of June 30, 2021, Federal Agency mortgage- backed security WAL is 10.28. Credit risk: The City’s investment policy applies the prudent-person rule. Investments are made as a prudent person would be expected to act, with discretion and intelligence, to seek reasonable income, preserve capital and, in general, avoid speculative investments. As of June 30, 2021, the City’s fixed income and short-term investments carried the following S&P Global Credit Ratings as compared to the policy’s minimum ratings: Policy Minimum Percent Authorized Investments Rating Category Portfolio Ratings Allocation U.S. Government N/A N/A 21.80% U.S. Government Agency N/A N/A 26.46% Certificates of Deposit and Short-Term A-1 Short-Term A-1 to A-1+ 2.31% Time Deposits Long-Term AA N/A 0.00% Corporate Debt Issued by a US Corporation Commercial Paper A-1 N/A 0.00% Corporate Notes/Bonds A BBB+ to AAA 31.71% International Fixed Income A AAA 2.73% Repurchase Agreements ST A-1; LT AA N/A 0.00% Registered Investment Companies AAAm AAAm 9.82% (Money Market Funds) Municipal Obligations A A to AAA 5.17% Concentration of credit risk: As of June 30, 2021, United States Treasury Notes represented 21.28% of the portfolio, Federal National Mortgage Association represented 10.40% of the portfolio and Federal Home Loan Mortgage Association represented 10.26% of the portfolio. No other issuer exceeded 5% of the portfolio. Investments Held by Trustee for Other Post-Employment Benefits & Pensions The Pension Trusts and OPEB Trust invest exclusively in open-end mutual funds. The fair value is measured using the net asset value (NAV) as quoted in active markets in a manner consistent with the measurement principles for investment companies calculated as of June 30, 2021. 73 107

2021 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Financial Section – Part C – Notes to the Basic Financial Statements Item 3. The City recorded the following OPEB and Pension investments as of June 30, 2021: Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Investment Type June 30, 2021 Assets (Level 1) Other Postemployment Benefits (OPEB) & Pension Funds Investments by fair value level Mutual Funds $ 118,620,646 $ 118,620,646 Limits on investments are as follows: Category Allocation Target Percentage Employee's Police OPEB Plan Plan Trust Cash & Short Term Bonds 11.00% 13.00% 9.00% Non-traditional Bonds 4.00% 3.00% 4.50% Inflation Protected Bonds 5.00% 5.00% 4.00% Intermediate Term Bonds 4.00% 3.00% 4.50% Long Term Bonds 5.00% 5.00% 4.00% High Yield Bond 5.00% 5.00% 5.00% Large Cap Value 8.00% 8.00% 8.00% Large Cap Growth 11.00% 11.00% 11.00% Mid Cap 8.00% 8.00% 8.00% Small Cap 8.00% 8.00% 11.00% Real Estate Investment 5.00% 5.00% 5.00% Foreign Equity 14.00% 14.00% 14.00% Emerging Markets 12.00% 12.00% 12.00% 100.00% 100.00% 100.00% Custodial Credit Risk is the risk that, in the event of the failure of the counterparty, the City will not be able to recover the value of its investments or collateral securities that are in the possession of an outside party. To avoid custodial credit risk, the City requires all investments held with a third-party custodian to be registered in the City’s name. Interest Rate Risk is the risk that changes in market interest rates will adversely affect the fair value of an investment. Generally, the longer the maturity of an investment, the greater the sensitivity of its fair value to changes in market interest rates. The Pension and OPEB Plans’ investment policies formally address interest rate risk. As of June 30, 2021, the Pension and OPEB plans had $34,170,254 in fixed income investments. The weighted average maturity for all its fixed income funds was 6.49 years. Credit Risk: The OPEB Plan’s investments are exposed to both market risk, the risk arising from changes in fair value, and credit risk, the risk of failure by another party to perform according to the terms of a contract. The Pension and OPEB Plan’s investment balances on June 30, 2021 consisted of open-ended mutual funds. 75 109

2021 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Financial Section – Part C – Notes to the Basic Financial Statements Item 3. Concentration of Credit Risk: Concentration of credit risk is the risk of loss attributable to the magnitude of an investment in a single issuer. The Pension and OPEB Plan’s investment policies do not formally address concentration of credit risk. The Pension and OPEB Plans held no positions of five percent or more in securities of any single issuer on June 30, 2021. Foreign Currency Risk is the risk that changes in the exchange rate of investments will adversely affect the fair value of an investment. As of June 30, 2021, the Pension and OPEB Plans had no investments that were denominated in foreign currency. 76 110

2021 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Financial Section – Part C – Notes to the Basic Financial Statements Item 3. E. Certain Asset Retirement Obligation The City implemented GASB Statement No. 83 Certain Asset Retirement Obligation (ARO) during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019. An ARO is a legally enforceable liability associated with the retirement of a tangible asset. The McKee Run Generating Station is an electric generating facility owned and operated by the City since 1972 and was shut down on May 31, 2021. A legal obligation exists for the City to perform future retirement activities for the decommissioning of the McKee Run Generating Station, as the site contains hazardous and other materials that require special handling, based upon Federal Regulations and the Delaware Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Control (DNREC). The City engaged a specialist to estimate the cost of decommissioning the station, and accordingly recognized a liability of $11,915,849, and deferred outflow of resources of $486,361 which was fully amortized as of June 30, 2021. The City of Dover has commenced the decommissioning of McKee Run Generating Station. As of May 31, 2021, all fuel, air, and oil connections to the Unit #3 generator were disconnected rendering the unit officially inoperative and out of service. The City has retained Advanced Geo Services to serve as the Hazardous Substance Cleanup Act (HSCA) contractor that will draft environmental sampling and cleanup plan that will be used to draft a future RFP for demolition. As of June 30, 2021 there have been no payments in relation to the Asset Retirement Obligation. There were no legally required funding or assurance provisions and there were no assets restricted for payment as of June 30, 2021. 6. RESTRICTED NET POSITION In the government-wide financial statements, the restricted net position of the governmental activities and business type activities are as follows: Governmental Activities Grants-capital projects This represents the State DOT grant $ 113,835 reported in the non-major special revenue funds. Grants-public safety These represent the Police grants, ERLSP 186,966 grant and Substance Abuse Prevention grant in the special revenue type funds. Other Purposes These represent all other funds reported in 130,546 the special revenue type, except the grants reserved for capital construction and public safety. Also included is the interest from an endowment from Mary Elizabeth Paton and the verizon reserve. Total Restricted Net Position $ 431,347 Business Type Activities Net restricted position for construction purposes - expendable Water and Wastewater Restrictions on investments $ 8,838,838 imposed by bond covenants Electric Restrictions on investments 65,251,423 imposed by bond covenants Total Restricted Net Position $ 74,090,261 86 120

2021 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Financial Section – Part C – Notes to the Basic Financial Statements Item 3. 7. FUND BALANCES & NET POSITION In the governmental fund financial statements, fund balances are reported based on a hierarchy of constraints on the specific purposes for which the funds can be spent. Non-spendable fund balances represent items that are not in spendable form and not expected to be converted to cash. This criterion also applies to the corpus of permanent funds, which would include the Mary Elizabeth Paton library endowment. Restricted fund balances represent amounts that have externally imposed restrictions by creditors, grantors, enabling legislation or laws and regulations of other governments. The fund balances of the City’s grant funds fall into this category, as well as a couple of accounts that have contractual restrictions imposed by a third party. Committed fund balances represent amounts that can be used only for specific purposes pursuant to constraints imposed by formal action of City Council through a motion or an adopted city ordinance. These amounts cannot be used for any other purpose unless the government removes or changes the specified use by taking the same type of action to which it previously committed the amount. Assigned fund balances represent amounts constrained by the City’s intent to be used for specific purposes. These amounts represent the City’s capital asset appropriations. The constraints placed on assigned fund balances are implemented through internal processes such as a budget ordinance or motion of City Council. Therefore, assigned fund balances do not have the same restrictive nature as a restricted fund balance. Unassigned fund balance is the residual amount that has not met the criteria for the previously mentioned classifications. The unassigned fund balance is available for expenditures as they are incurred. The General Fund is the only fund that reports a positive unassigned fund balance amount. However, in governmental funds other than the General Fund, if expenditures incurred for specific purposes exceed the amounts that are restricted, committed, or assigned to those purposes, it may be necessary to report a negative unassigned fund balance in that fund. 87 121

The City entered into a long-term Renewable Generation Unit Power Purchase Agreement with FPS Raceway Solar, LLC effective August 24, 2020. FPS Raceway Solar, LLC will supply certain energy, REC's and capacity generated by the electric generation facility to be located in Harrington, DE. Once the project is completed it will provide power to the City of Dover for a period of 25 years. B. The City is the guarantor on two loans in the original amounts of $635,300 & $757,900 for the Dover Fire Department: a separate entity from the City of Dover. The City also budgets financial contributions to assist the volunteer fire company with the acquisition of firefighting apparatus and maintenance of the building and other necessary equipment. The current fiscal year includes $32,403 in expenditures for the emergency mold remediation in Station #2, $41,673 for Squad #1 a 2020 Pierce enforcer rescue engine, and $77,672 for Engine No. 5. C. The City entered a three-year management contract with The Energy Authority effective July 1, 2016 to provide a market-based approach for power supply management. The City has extended the contract through June 30, 2022. The Energy Authority manages energy purchases and utilizes the City’s generating assets to provide a level of rate stability and to mitigate the effects of volatility in the energy markets. D. The City also entered a management contract with North American Energy Services (NAES) to operate and maintain the generating assets of the electric utility in May 2006. The City extended the contract with NAES through September 30, 2021. The City has incorporated the budgets and financial activity of the generating assets into its procedures used for all other divisions of the electric utility. These procedures include a line-item budget and adherence to City policies. All personnel are employed by NAES and personnel costs are billed to the City bi- weekly. Any capital improvements are included in the City’s capital improvement plan. The contract also provides for a monthly management fee and a performance incentive based on budget and plant performance. The cost estimate for annual management fees and incentives totals $737,500 in fiscal year 2021 and is included in the plant operating budget. E. The City is the guarantor on two $1.3 million loans held by the Downtown Dover Partnership.

2021 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Financial Section – Part C – Notes to the Basic Financial Statements Item 3. F. The City owes $37,500 to a former employee of the City due to a separation agreement. The former employee is owed this money in the next year. G. There are no significant encumbered amounts where the resources have already been restricted. 12. FORWARD CONTRACTS Pursuant to the July 1, 2011 Energy Management Agreement between the City and The Energy Authority (TEA), the City has formed an Executive Risk Management Committee (ERMC). The ERMC has adopted a Governing Policy for Energy Commodity Risk Management (Policy) aimed at addressing the energy commodity risks and the Procedures and Controls Manual for Energy Commodity Risk Management (Procedures Manual). The Procedures Manual further describes the risk management philosophy under which TEA, the City’s designated provider of energy risk management services conducts its activities. The Procedures Manual authorizes TEA to enter into physical forward transactions which shall be governed by Edison Electric Institute (EEI), North American Energy Standards Board (NAESB), or similar agreements with counterparties approved by the City. These agreements will enable the City to hedge the forward price of purchased power, natural gas or fuel oil for delivery as needed to meet its load requirements. No speculative transactions for volumes in excess of forecasted power and fuel needs are permitted. TEA also provides advisory services to the City to determine the extent to which financial hedges would mitigate market and credit risk to the benefit of the City. These contracts meet the definition of a derivative instrument as defined by GASB Statement No. 53, Accounting and Reporting for Derivative Instruments (GASB 53). However, these contracts meet the normal purchases and sales exemption of GASB 53 as the City intends to use the physical commodity in its normal utility operations to supply energy to its customers. Accordingly, these contracts are not within the scope of GASB 53 and are not recorded on the City’s Statement of Net Position. Under the Procedures manual the City will not extend credit to any potential counterparty that has a credit rating below investment grade (defined as BBB as rated by S&P Global Ratings or Baa2 as rated by Moody’s Investors Service). Any counterparty that is unrated by either S&P or Moody’s must be approved by the ERMC prior to the execution of any trading activities. Credit risk is mitigated using collateral thresholds, credit limits, maximum nominal exposure and term limitations. A collateral threshold is the amount of unsecured credit granted to the counterparty. Unsecured credit exposure includes amounts owed by the counterparty, whether billed or not, and the marked-to-market differences in value of any collateral held. Any net exposure above the collateral threshold will require the posting of collateral by the counterparty. Collateral thresholds, term limitations and credit exposure limits are subject to maximums as established by the ERMC. 91 125

2021 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Financial Section – Part C – Notes to the Basic Financial Statements Item 3. 13. INSURANCE A. Health Insurance – State of Delaware The City participates in the State of Delaware Health Insurance Program. The State offers four health plan options. The administration of benefits is coordinated with Aetna and Highmark Delaware. Pre- determined premiums consisting of City and employee contributions are subsequently paid to the State of Delaware. B. Workers’ Compensation Fund – Self-Insurance On July 1, 1990, the City began self-insuring its Workers’ Compensation insurance. For this purpose, the City has established a separate fund. Claims are processed and administered by a third-party administrator. The City manages the revenue and expenditures in this fund and maintains all records. The City maintains a fund balance reserve to cover any claims incurred but not reported. AMI Risk Consultants completed an updated valuation in fiscal year 2019. As of June 30, 2021, $288,538 is reserved for open claims in this fund. An appropriate umbrella policy for the excess coverage has been purchased and is in effect as of June 30, 2021. Workers’ Compensation activity is recorded in the Workers’ Compensation Fund as follows: 2021 2020 Claims payable, beginning of year $ 449,515 $ 490,800 Claims incurred 96,278 49,300 Payment of claims (257,255) (90,585) Claims payable, end of year $ 288,538 $ 449,515 C. Other than Health or Workers’ Compensation Insurance The City purchases commercial insurance policies to cover risks not insured through self-insurance funds. The City has designated a contingency account to provide for uninsured losses (See Note 7). There have been no significant reductions or settlements exceeding coverage in the past five fiscal years. 14. COMPENSATED ABSENCES The City grants a specific number of vacation days with pay to its employees. Upon termination or retirement, an employee is paid for accumulated vacation days. The City also grants one paid sick day per month to all employees, except for employees covered by the International Brotherhood of Electric Workers (IBEW) contract. The IBEW employees are granted eleven sick days per year. 93 127

2021 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Financial Section – Part C – Notes to the Basic Financial Statements Item 3. The City of Dover follows a terminal leave policy which varies with each of the four labor unions as well as the non-bargaining group. The maximum accumulated sick days paid upon retirement is 150 days for 25 years of service. No accrued sick leave is paid when an employee is terminated. In the government-wide and proprietary fund financial statements, unpaid compensated absences are recorded as a liability as the vested employees' benefits accrue, to the extent it is probable that the employee will be paid for comp time, sick and vacation benefits at retirement. In governmental funds, compensated absences are recorded as expenditures as payments become due; accordingly, no liability is recorded in the Governmental Funds statement. Typically, the General Fund has been used in prior years to liquidate the liability for compensated absences recorded in governmental activities. 15. OTHER POST-EMPLOYMENT BENEFITS Plan Description On May 11, 2009, the City of Dover Other Post-Employment Benefits Trust (OPEB Trust) was established pursuant to Section 115 of the Internal Revenue Code. Policy for and management of the OPEB benefits provided to retirees are the responsibility of the City of Dover. No stand-alone financial report is issued for the OPEB Trust. The City of Dover OPEB Plan is a post-retirement employee benefit program established for the purpose of funding retiree health care as provided for in Chapter 80, Article IV, Division 5 of the Code of Ordinances. The OPEB Plan is a single employer defined benefit plan. The OPEB Plan provides retirement medical coverage to pensioners and their eligible dependents in the City of Dover defined benefit and defined contribution pension plans as well as the State of Delaware’s Police defined benefit plan. Plan Administration Management of the plan investments are fully vested with the City of Dover OPEB Board as established in the City Code, which consists of five members - two Council members appointed by the Council President, the City Manager, the Controller/Treasurer, and the Human Resources Director. The City Manager, the Controller/Treasurer, and the Human Resources Director serve as ex-officio members. Milliman of Albany, New York provides asset management advisory and consulting services to the Board. The City purchases health insurance from the State of Delaware through a cooperative purchasing arrangement permitted by State Code. The State Office of Benefits provides the City with the medical insurance premiums by type of coverage and carrier during the budget cycle each year. The City also pays a five percent risk premium and contract administration fee of $2.70 for each contract in addition to the premium. Any premiums paid over or under the benefits paid out for City employees revert to the State. Membership of the plan consisted of the following on June 30, 2021: Retirees and beneficiaries receiving benefits 284 Terminated plan members entitled to but not yet receiving the benefits 10 Active plan members 310 Total 604 94 128

Transactions are recorded in the OPEB Trust for the payment of administrative and investment expenses and financed through investment earnings. City appropriations and other employer contributions for health care are recorded in the OPEB Trust. The OPEB Board of Trustees is responsible for the management of the trust investments. Contributions The contribution rates for the employer are established annually by the budgeting process of the City. Those rates include an employer contribution based on projected pay-as-you-go financing requirements as a percent of premiums, with an additional amount to prefund benefits, which is not actuarially determined. For the year ended June 30, 2021, the City’s average contribution rate was 17.7% of covered payroll of $19,755,662. The components of the Net OPEB liability of the City on June 30, 2021, are as follows: Other Post Employment Benefits Fund Changes in Net OPEB Liability Increase Total (Decrease) OPEB Plan Fiduciary Net OPEB Liability Net Position Liability Changes in Net OPEB Liability (a) (b) (a) - (b) Balances as of June 30, 2020 $ 63,320,996 $ 42,672,534 $ 20,648,462 Changes for the year: Service cost 1,089,006 - 1,089,006 Interest 4,094,951 - 4,094,951 Differences between expected and actual exp (5,370,178) - (5,370,178) Changes in assumptions 2,447,804 - 2,447,804 Benefit payments (2,866,652) (2,866,652) - Employer contributions - 3,503,888 (3,503,888) Net investment income - 12,864,455 (12,864,455) Trust administrative expenses - (3,000) 3,000 Balances as of June 30, 2021 $ 62,715,927 $ 56,171,225 $ 6,544,702 Plan Fiduciary Net Position as % of total OPEB Liability 89.6% Rate of return. For the year ended June 30, 2021, the annual money-weighted rate of return on investments, net of investment expense, was 30.15%. The money-weighted rate of return expresses investment performance, net of investment expense, adjusted for the changing amounts invested. Actuarial Methods and Significant Assumptions The total OPEB liability was determined by an actuarial valuation as of June 30, 2021, with liabilities as of July 1, 2020 based on an actuarial date of July 1, 2019 projected to the July 1, 2020 on a “no loss / no gain” 98 132

Non-Police: SOA Pub-2010 General b. Police: SOA Pub-2010 Public Safety c. Surviving Spouses: SOA Pub-2010 Contingent Survivors Changes in Actuarial Assumptions or Methods The long term expected rate of return on OPEB plan investments was determined using a building block method in which best-estimate ranges of expected future real rates of return (expected returns, net of investment expense and inflation) are developed for each major asset class. These ranges are combined to produce the long-term expected rate of return by weighting the expected future real rates of return by the target asset allocation percentage and by adding expected inflation. Best estimates of arithmetic real rates of return for each major asset class included in the target asset allocation as of June 30, 2021 are summarized in the following table: OPEB Trust Long-Term Expected Rate of Return Long-Term Target Expected Real Asset Class Allocation* Rate of Return Cash & Short-Term Bond 9.00% 0.50% Fixed Income 22.00% 3.55% Equity 64.00% 8.26% Real Estate 5.00% 7.96% Long-Term Expected Rate of Return 6.50% *The best-estimate range for the long-term expected rate of return is determined by adding expected inflation to expected long-term real returns and reflecting expected volatility and correlation. The capital market assumptions are per Milliman's investment consulting practice. 99 133

2021 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Financial Section – Part C – Notes to the Basic Financial Statements Item 3. Discount Rate The discount rate used to measure the total OPEB liability was 6.5%. The projection of cash flows used to determine the discount rate assumed that City contributions will be made at rates equal to the actuarially determined contribution rates. Based on those assumptions, the OPEB plan’s fiduciary net position was projected to be available to make all projected future benefit payments of current plan members. Therefore, the long-term expected rate of return on OPEB plan investments was applied to all periods of projected benefit payments to determine the total OPEB liability. Sensitivity of the Net OPEB Liability to Changes in the Discount Rate The following presents the net OPEB liability as of June 30, 2021, calculated using the discount rate of 6.50%, as well as what the City’s net OPEB liability would be if it were calculated using a discount rate that is 1 percentage point lower (5.50%) or 1 percentage point higher (7.50%) than the current rate.

All other employees, except for FOP members, must contribute 3% of pensionable wages into the 401a Plan. The City matches the 3% contribution into the 401a Plan. The City provides an additional dollar-for- dollar match into the 401a Plan if the employee contributes to their 457 Plan, up to a maximum of 3% for a total matching contribution not to exceed 6%.

All full-time regular employees are eligible, excluding law enforcement personnel. Personnel that have elected the defined contribution plan are not eligible for the defined benefit plan. All contributions are 100% vested upon election of the plan. To be eligible for benefit payments, the participant must meet the same eligibility requirements as the participants in the defined benefit plan. Employees are eligible to withdraw or rollover to another plan the employer and employee benefits upon separation of service. Withdrawals prior to age 59 ½ could be subject to penalty.

Investment management and consultant fees are paid from the Pension Trust Funds. All actuarial costs are paid from other City funds. City of Dover Police Pension Plan Plan Description This contributory pension plan began on January 1, 1970 under the authority of the City Code, Chapter 62, Article III, Pension Plan, Section 62-71 through 62-84. The contribution and funding requirements of the plan are established by the City and may be amended by the City Council. It is a closed plan. The last active employee retired June 29, 2006. An officer’s pension right is vested upon the completion of 15 years of continuous service. As of June 30, 2021, there are 45 retirees and beneficiaries receiving benefits. Fully vested employees who have completed 20 to 25 years of continuous service are entitled to annual benefits equal to 2.5% of their average earnings for each year of continuous service. The maximum benefit is 62.5% of average earnings. If a participant terminates after completing 15 years of service, the participant will be eligible for a deferred benefit commencing at age 60 with a benefit accrued at the date of termination. In place of this vesting, participants may elect to receive their accumulated contributions. Disability benefits are paid to a participant who is totally or partially disabled in the performance of his or her duties. The total duty-connected disability benefit is payable monthly and equal to 75% of the monthly rate of earning at the time of disability. The partial duty-connected disability benefit is the accrued benefit at the date of disability if not less than 50% of average earnings. Disability benefits cease if the participant recovers or dies. If the disabled participant reaches his normal retirement date, the benefit is reduced by one-third. Survivor’s benefits are payable monthly in an amount equal to 75% of the participant’s rate of earnings, for a duty related death. Survivor’s benefits are payable monthly in an amount not to exceed 25% of the participant’s rate of earnings, for a non-duty related death, if the participant has completed 10 years of service. If a retired participant dies, his or her spouse receives 50% of the benefit. All benefits under the plan, including survivor’s benefits, are increased 2% per annum. There have been no changes in benefits during the valuation period by City Council. Plan Administration Management of the plan investments are fully vested with the City of Dover Police Pension Board as established in the City Code, which consists of seven members – three elected by plan members, two Council members appointed by the Council President, the Chief of Police, and the City Manager. The City Controller/Treasurer serves as an ex-officio member. Milliman of Albany, New York provides asset management advisory and consulting services to the Board. Funding Policy The City intends to continue to fund the Actuarially Determined Contribution (ADC) as provided for in the actuarial valuation. The funding may be impacted by differences in actual experience and the actuarial assumptions. The employer contributions are considered by the actuaries in their determination of the ADC. The State contributes to the pension fund on behalf of the City based on 1) an allocation to the City based on a 0.25% surcharge on insurance policies issued in the state and the number of officers employed and 106 140

For the fiscal year ending June 30, 2021, the State contributed $552,277. The ADC conforms to the entry age method as defined in GASB Statement No. 67/68. The City has interim valuations completed each year between the required biennial valuations to monitor the funding progress. The City’s actuary is Nyhart of Indianapolis, Indiana. The ADC is being amortized using a level dollar method. The amortization period is 4 years for the 2021 fiscal year and will decline by 1 each year until 1 year. Total contributions to the plan for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2021 were $1.0 million, which is 106% of the ADC. The ADC is based on a closed 10-year level dollar amortization of the Unfunded Actuarial Accrued Liability (UAAL). The Schedule of Changes in the Net Pension Liability, and a Schedule of Employer Contributions are presented as Required Supplementary Information (RSI) following the notes to the financial statements. Net Pension Liability The total pension liability was determined by an actuarial valuation as of July 1, 2021 with liabilities projected to the June 30, 2021 measurement date. As of June 30, 2021, the plan was 96.42% funded. The total pension liability for benefits was $18.1 million, and the fiduciary net position was $17.5 million, which resulted in a net pension liability (NPL) of $.7 million for the primary government. There are no active officers; therefore, there is no covered payroll or ratio of the net pension liability to cover payroll. Key methods and assumptions used in calculating the total pension liability in the latest actuarial valuation, are presented below: Rate of return.

The projection of cash flows used to determine the discount rate assumed that plan member contributions will be made at the current contribution rate and that contributions will be made at rates equal to the difference between actuarially determined contribution rates and the member rate. Based on those assumptions, the pension plan’s fiduciary net position was projected to be available to make all projected future benefit payments of current plan members. Therefore, the long-term expected rate of return on pension plan investments was applied to all periods of projected benefit payments to determine the total pension liability.

As of the valuation date, June 30, 2021, the General Employee Pension Plan is comprised of the following: Retired and beneficiaries currently receiving benefits 218 Active employees Fully Vested 71 Deferred vested 18 The percentage of covered payroll which employees contribute is stated in the City Code and is considered by the actuaries in their determination of the actuarial determined contribution for service cost. For the year ended June 30, 2021, gross payroll earnings of $4.9 million were reported to and covered by this plan. An employee hired before May 1, 1994 is eligible for normal retirement benefits under this plan, when they attain the age of 65 with 10 years of continuous service. This same employee is eligible for early retirement when he/she attains the age of 50 with 20 years of continuous service or has completed 25 years of service. Employees hired on or after May 1, 1994 who attained age 55 and whose attained age plus years of continuous service is equal to or greater than 80 are eligible for early-unreduced retirement benefits under this plan. The monthly benefits are 1/50 of the average actual monthly earnings multiplied by years and months of credited service upon retirement (highest 36 consecutive months in his/her final 10 years of continuous service). The monthly benefit shall not be less than $200 per month. Benefits are paid for the lifetime of the participant. Upon the death of the participant, 50% of the payments to which the participant was or would have been entitled shall be made to their eligible survivor. An employee may also take an early-reduced retirement on any date following the attainment of age 55 and the completion of 10 years of continuous service. However, the early retirement benefit is calculated in the same manner as the normal retirement benefit, at a reduced rate of one-half percent for each month computed from the date of early retirement to age 65 years. If an employee terminated before becoming vested in the plan, they are eligible to withdraw this total contribution with interest compounded annually. Survivor's benefits are payable to eligible survivors of a participant who dies after completing 10 years of continuous service. The amount of the death benefit is equal to 50% of the retirement benefit the participant would have received had he retired the day before he died. The benefit is calculated using the normal retirement benefit formula and service at date of termination. Effective September 29, 2009 the City Council voted to close the General Employees’ Pension plan to new hires. There have been no changes in benefits during the valuation period by City Council. Plan Administration Management of the plan investments are fully vested with the City of Dover Employees’ Pension Board as established in the City Code, which consists of three elected by plan members, two Council members appointed by the Council President, the City Controller/Treasurer, and the City Manager. Milliman of Albany, New York provides asset management advisory and consulting services to the Board. 111 145

2021 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Financial Section – Part C – Notes to the Basic Financial Statements Item 3. Funding Policy The City intends to fund the actuarial determined contributions (ADC) as provided for in the actuarial valuation. The City uses the percentage of payroll determined by the actuary for its contributions. The funding may be impacted by differences in actual experience and the actuarial assumptions. The employer contributions are considered by the actuaries in their determination of the actuarial determined contribution. The City makes payroll-based contributions for active members in the plan. The Actuarially Determined Contribution is based on a closed 15-year level dollar amortization of the Unfunded Actuarial Accrued Liability (UAAL). The Schedule of Changes in the Net Pension Liability, and a Schedule of Employer Contributions are presented as Required Supplementary Information (RSI) following the notes to the financial statements. Net Pension Liability The total pension liability was determined by an actuarial valuation as of July 1, 2021 with liabilities projected to the June 30, 2021 measurement date. As of June 30, 2021, the plan was 84.67% funded. The total pension liability for benefits was $66.0 million, and the fiduciary net position was $55.9 million, which resulted in a net pension liability (NPL) of $10.1 million for the primary government. The covered payroll (annual payroll of active employees covered by the plan) was $5.1 million and the ratio of the NPL to the covered payroll was 199.79%. Rate of return. For the year ended June 30, 2021, the annual money-weighted rate of return on investments, net of investment expense, was 29.71%. The money-weighted rate of return expresses investment performance, net of investment expense, adjusted for the changing amounts invested. Key methods and assumptions used in calculating the total pension liability are presented in the following chart: Actuarial Methods and Significant Assumptions Valuation date July 1, 2021 Actuarial cost method Entry Age Method Amortization method Level Dollar Amortization period Closed; 15-year of the Unfunded AAL Asset valuation method Fair Market Value Actuarial Assumptions: Investment rate of return 6.5% Discount rate 6.5% Projected salary increases 3.0% Includes inflation at 2.2% 112 146

Duty – Partial Disability – Calculated the same as Service Benefits, subject to minimum 50% of final average compensation. Non-Duty – Same as Service Benefits, total disability subject to a minimum 50% of final average monthly compensation plus 5% of each dependent not to exceed 20% for all dependents. Partial disability is subject to a minimum of 30% of final average monthly compensation. Survivor Benefits If employee is receiving a pension, then eligible survivor receives 50% of pension; if employee is active, eligible survivor receives 50% of pension the employee would have received at age 62. If the member is killed in the line of duty, the eligible survivor receives 75% of the member’s compensation. Contributions: Employer – Determined by Board of Pension Trustees. Employer contributions were 16.00%, 16.84%, and 16.68% of earnings for the Fiscal Year 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The City’s contributions to the plan for years ended June 30, 2021, 2019 and 2018 were $1,328,868, $1,317,526, and $1,276,048, respectively, and were equal to the required contributions for each year. Total eligible full-time wages covered by the State plan were $7.9 million this fiscal year. Member – 7% of compensation. Basis of Presentation The DPERS financial statements are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting, whereby expenses are recorded when the liability is incurred, revenues are recorded in the accounting period in which they are earned and become measurable, and investment purchases and sales are recorded as of the related trade date. Plan member contributions are recognized in the period in which contributions are due. Employer contributions are recognized when due and the employer has a legal requirement to provide contributions. Benefits and refunds are recognized when due and payable in accordance with the terms of the plan. For purposes of measuring the net pension liability, deferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows of resources related to pensions, and pension expense, information about the fiduciary net position of the DPERS Plan and additions to/deductions from DPERS’s fiduciary net position have been determined on the same basis as they are reported by DPERS. Employer Allocation Percentage Methodology The amounts assigned to each employer in the Schedule of Pension Amounts by Employer is each employer’s proportional share of the net pension liability, deferred outflows of resources, deferred 117 151

Management has elected to allocate the employer’s proportionate shares of the collective pension amounts based on the percentage of actual employer contributions as documented in the Schedule of Employer Allocations. The City’s proportionate share percentage is 8.5117% for the current fiscal year, 8.3407% for the prior year and the change is an increase of 0.171%. Pension Liabilities, Pension Expense and Deferred Outflows of Resources and Deferred Inflows of Resources related to Pensions On June 30, 2021, the City reported a net pension liability of $1,308,109 for its proportionate share of the collective net pension liability. The net pension liability was measured as of June 30, 2019, and the total pension liability used to calculate the net pension liability was determined by an actuarial valuation as of June 30, 2019, with update procedures used to roll forward the pension liability to June 30, 2020. The City’s proportion of the net pension liability was based on the percentage of actual employer contributions. The components of the proportionate share of the net pension liability of the Plan as of June 30, 2021 were as follows (dollar values expressed in thousands): County and Municipal Police & Firefighter's Pension Plan (dollar values expressed in thousands) (3) The Employers' (1) (2) proportionate Total Plan fiduciary share of the proportionate proportionate net pension share of the share of the liability (asset) Year pension liability net position (1)-(2) 2020 $ 39,303 $ 37,995 $ 1,308 2019 35,494 33,098 2,396 2018 32,897 30,957 1,940 2017 29,103 28,230 873 118 152

2021 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Financial Section – Part C – Notes to the Basic Financial Statements Item 3. The components of collective pension expense for the year ending June 30, 2020 are as follows: County and Municipal Police & Firefighter's Pension Expense June 30, 2020 Service cost $ 1,492,612 Member contributions (547,898) Administrative expenses 12,427 Changes in benefit terms 10,469 Interest on the total pension liability 2,396,639 Projected earnings on plan investments (2,222,755) Recognition of deferred outflow and inflows of resources: Changes in assumptions in the measurement of total pension liability 40,941 Differences between expected and actual experience 123,760 Differences between projected and actual earnings on plan investments 328,722 Total Pension Expense $ 1,634,917 The proportionate share of the total pension liability for the June 30, 2020 measurement date was determined by an actuarial valuation as of June 30, 2019, with update procedures used to roll forward the total pension liability to June 30, 2020. These actuarial valuations used the following actuarial assumptions: Actuarial Assumptions Investment rate of return/Discount rate1 7.0% Projected salary increases1 2.5% + Merit Cost-of-living adjustments 0.0% Inflation is included at 2.5%; the total pension liabilities are measured based on assumptions pertaining to the interest rates, inflation rates, and employee demographic behavior in future years. It is likely that future experience will not exactly conform to these assumptions. To the extent that actual experience deviates from these assumptions, the emerging liabilities may be higher or lower than anticipated. The more the experience deviates, the larger the impact on future financial statements. Mortality assumptions are based on the RP – 2014 tables with gender adjustments for healthy annuitants and disabled retirees and an adjusted version on MP-2015 mortality improvement scale on a fully generational basis. Projected benefit payments do not include the effects of projected ad hoc cost-of-living adjustments (ad hoc COLAs) as they are not substantively automatic. The primary considerations relevant to making this determination include the historical pattern of granting the changes and the consistency in the amounts of the changes. The long-term expected rate of return on pension plan investments was determined using a building-block method in which best-estimate ranges of expected future real rates of return (expected returns, net of investment expense and inflation) are developed for each major asset class. These ranges are combined to produce the long-term expected rate of return by weighting the expected future real rates of return by an asset allocation percentage, which is based on the nature and mix of current and expected plan 120 154

Best estimates of geometric real rates of return for each major asset class included in the Plan’s current and expected asset allocation are summarized in the following table: County and Municipal Police & Firefighter's Pension Plan Long-Term Expected Rate of Return Long-Term Expected Real Asset Rate of Return Allocation Asset class: Domestic equity 5.7% 28.5% International equity 5.7 15.2 Fixed income 2.0 28.8 Alternative investments 7.8 23 Cash and equivalents - 4.5 Discount Rate The discount rate for all plans used to measure the total pension liability was 7.0%. The projection of cash flows used to determine the discount rate assumed that contributions from plan members will be made at the current contribution rates and that contributions from employers will be made at rates determined by the Board of Pension Trustees, actuarially determined. Based on those assumptions, the pension plans’ fiduciary net position was projected to be available to make all projected future benefit payments of current plan members. Therefore, the long-term expected rate of return on pension plan investments was applied to all periods of projected benefit payments to determine the total pension liability. Sensitivity Analysis of Net Pension Liability to Changes in the Discount Rate The following presents the City’s proportionate share of the net pension liability (asset) of the Plan, calculated using the discount rate of 7.0%, as well as what the Plans’ net pension liability (asset) would be if it were calculated using a discount rate that is one-percentage-point lower or one-percentage-point higher than the current rate (dollar values expressed in thousands): County and Municipal Police & Firefighter's Pension Plan (dollar amounts expressed in thousands) 1% Current 1% Decrease Discount Rate Increase 6.00% 7.00% 8.00% Proportionate share of the net pension liability (asset) $ 7,281 1,308 (3,567) Separately issued financial statements for DPERS are available from the pension office at: McArdle Building, Suite 1 860 Silver Lake Blvd Dover, DE 19904 Or at the following web address: www.delawarepensions.com 121 155

2021 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Financial Section – Part D – Required Supplementary Information Item 3. NOTES TO REQUIRED SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION GOVERNMENTAL BUDGETS Budgetary Basis of Accounting The City prepares its budget for the General Fund revenue on a modified accrual basis. The expenditures are accounted for when the purchase orders are issued. Encumbrances are established when purchase orders are issued and accounted for as a reservation of fund balance at year-end and are not on a modified accrual basis. The budget is amended in the subsequent year for the outstanding encumbrances of the prior year. The modified accrual basis of accounting is used for the fund financial statements. General Fund actual revenues exceeded the final budget by $2,405,365 with positive variances in 911 fees, permits & other fees, miscellaneous charges, sanitation fees, court of chancery fees, investment income, DEMA State Grant, police pension grant, miscellaneous grants, transfer tax, municipal street aid and police grant funds. The sources of revenues with negative variances are fines and police revenue, interest earnings, library revenues – general & county reimbursement, business licenses, police extra duty fees, franchise fees, rent revenue – garrison farm, interfund service receipts, and civil traffic penalties. Actual total expenditures were lower than budget by $3,334,549 due to lower than budgeted expense across almost all functions a result of personnel reductions through attrition and retirements. The net result is an increase of $6,394,836 to the General Fund ending fund balance. Budget Amendments During this fiscal year, the City Council amended the budget three times. These budget amendment or supplemental appropriation ordinances were primarily for the following purposes: 1. To re-appropriate budget balances for ongoing capital projects. 2. To amend: grant budgets, reserve accounts, and program revenues and expenses for the actual results of the prior fiscal year. 3. To amend revenue and expense accounts based on actual experience during fiscal year 2021. The differences for the year ended June 30, 2021 were as follows: Total revenues- budgetary basis $ 47,405,939 Total expenditures- budgetary basis 43,238,225 Net decrease in fund balance- budgetary basis 4,167,714 Perspective differences Transfer to Reserves 114,765 General Fund Subfund Expense Activity for the Capital Project Fund (2,053,030) Intrafund Transfers to the General Fund- Capital Projects Fund 2,078,100 General Fund Subfund Revenue Activity for the Capital Project Fund 1,741,759 Fair Value of Investments (255,923) Deferred Revenue Adjustment (256,900) Net increase in fund balance - GAAP Basis $ 5,536,485 169 135

Item 4. Memo to: Council From: David Hugg Date: February 23, 2022 SUBJ: BACKGROUND BRIEF – PAYMENT IN LEIU OF TAXES (PILOT) What is a PILOT? A Payment in Lieu of Taxes (PILOT) is a mechanism designed to offset a portion of unrealized real property taxes a jurisdiction would otherwise be eligible to receive as a function of having publicly owned non-taxable properties within their jurisdiction. In Delaware, Chapter XXX, section XX of the Delaware Code authorizes a pilot payment to county seats (Wilmington. Dover and Georgetown) for unrealized real property tax revenue because of state-owned properties located within the jurisdiction (courts, education, state offices and facilities, etc.). The Code sets forth a formula for computing the amount of the pilot, the properties eligible for consideration, a maximum amount available for distribution, and procedures for assessment and billing. Provisions of Delaware Code: § 8318. Compensatory payments for certain exempt properties owned by the State. (a) The county seat in each county shall appraise and assess real property taxes on all property owned by the State excluding properties owned by the Delaware Housing Authority, Delaware Solid Waste Authority, Delaware State University, or the University of Delaware, lying within their respective city limits. Each county seat shall annually submit statements of these appraisals and assessments unto the Secretary of the Department of Finance, said assessments and appraisals to be in accordance with their respective procedures for appraising and assessing real property. (b) The Secretary of Finance shall examine and inspect the aforementioned assessment and appraisals and shall have all rights to question the assessments and appeal any decisions regarding the same. If the Secretary of Finance is satisfied that the assessments and appraisals are accurate, then the Secretary shall direct payment to the County Seat according to the following schedule: (1) For those county seats with a population between 0–50,000 residents, the Secretary shall direct a payment of 30.8% of the tax assessed to said county seats. (2) For those county seats with a population above 50,000 residents, the Secretary shall direct a payment of 100.0% of the tax assessed to said county seats. (c) The total amount of payments made by the Secretary with respect to all county seats shall not exceed $3,900,000 in any state fiscal year. (d) In any fiscal year, if total compensatory payments, as calculated under subsection (a) of this section, exceeds the amount allocated in subsection (c) of this section, then the payments to be received by each county seat shall be the product of $3,000,000 multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the payment that would otherwise be due to a county seat under subsections (a) and (b) of this section and the denominator is the total of all compensatory payments that would otherwise be due to all county seats pursuant to subsections (a) and (b) of this section. The Secretary of Finance has the right to withhold payment to any county seat until the assessments and appraisals of all 3 counties have been submitted and verified. Dover’s PILOT Computation: Dover has slightly more than 100 state-owned properties eligible for consideration. These have an assessed value of $285,248,000 with a taxable value of $1,183,779.20. (See July 2021 Billing). As you can 243

Item 4. see the city is authorized to bill at 30.8% of the potential tax so we receive $364,603.99. The actual amount paid by the State Department of Finance is somewhat higher ($432, 844.63 – which may be a function of the actual amount appropriated for this payment last year). The City “losses” almost 70% of the tax revenue that would otherwise have been paid if these were not state-owned property, a loss of $819,175.21. By way of reference that is about equivalent to a 2.32 cent increase in the tax rate (1 cent equals about $352,360.97 in revenue). There is a bill pending in the Senate (SB83) sponsored by Senator Sokola and Rep. Baumbach (and others) that would change the formula and bring Newark into the calculation, largely due to the significant land holdings of the University of Delaware. This bill increases the amount that can be applied to: “For those county seats with a population of 50,000 or less and having no more than 20% tax exempt property 36% of the tax assessed.” Using the 2021 taxable value of $1,183,779.20 the increase to 36% would result in a PILOT payment of $426,160.44 (increase of $61,556.45 without adjustment for appropriated funds). The bill retains the 100% provision for county sears having more than 50,000 people (Wilmington). Fundamental Issues: Why should the calculation be based on population with a percentage adjustment? What logic determines that tax exempt state property receives less services in Dover versus Wilmington? Why should the University of Delaware be treated differently in SB83 (UD property is not excluded in the existing code)? UD considers itself as a state agency when it is convenient, otherwise not The PILOT was established to address the impact of state lands on local taxes in the county seats which traditionally are the location of significant state facilities. Newark is not alone with various other state facilities, for example Smyrna is home of the Hospital for the Chronically ill and Milford has the veteran’s Home, along with various state facilities. Newark should not be treated differently from the other municipalities that are not county seats. Recommendations: Oppose SB83 and the addition of Newark to the PILOT pool of funding Request that the PILOT provisions be based solely on non-taxable value (i.e., 100% of the non-taxable value) not segregated by population and without any percentage adjustment and treat all county seats equally. Continue to apply the adjustment factor set forth in Section 8318 (d) of the existing code. 244
