Review of Active Recreation Area Plans - Dove View Apartments
Ms. Janelle Cornwell, Planner II, reviewed detailed information regarding the Recreation Plan for
the Dove View Apartments. She noted that Dove View Apartments is being reviewed as a
Site Development Plan and that the subject property consists of one (1) parcel of land totaling
6.8326+/- acres. The Site Plan is to permit the construction of three (3) residential buildings with
144 apartments. Two (2) of the buildings were partially constructed as a part of an expired
Conditional Use Site Plan known as Dove View Planned Neighborhood Design - Senior Housing
Option.
As part of the Site Plan review process for this project, Ms. Cornwell stated that the applicant has
prepared a Conceptual Recreation Plan which illustrates how the Dove View development will
provide recreation amenities in accordance with the design specifications described in Article 5,
Section 10 of the Zoning Ordinance. The Plan indicates that 24,541 S.F. of land would be reserved
as Active Recreation Area, which are in central locations on the site. She stated that the proposed
amenities include a walking path with benches and picnic tables around the stormwater management
pond, an area with horseshoe pits with picnic tables, and an area with a shuffleboard court, swing
set, and picnic table.
Ms. Cornwell reminded members that the Active Recreation Area Plan must be reviewed by the
Parks, Recreation, and Community Enhancement Committee for a recommendation prior to
consideration of the Site Development Master Plan by the Planning Commission. She reviewed
information from the submitted Plan (dated May 11, 2011) for the Active Recreation Area to be
constructed, as follows:
Required Provided on Plan
Active Recreation Area 150 S.F. per dwelling unit or Shuffleboard, swing set, and
(Article 5, §10.515) 10,000 S.F., whichever is picnic tables area = 6,763 S.F.

Active Recreation Amenities Age Oriented to Development The walking area with
(Article 5, §10.15) benches and picnic; the
horseshoe pits with picnic
tables; and shuffleboard court
with swing set and picnic
tables would serve all ages.
Parking The particulars of the
proposed active recreation do
not have associated parking
needs.
Setbacks: 30 feet from All of the active recreation
residential lots and 25 feet from areas are in compliance as
right-of-way for street required.
Landscaping The project shows trees and
landscaping around the site
and within the various
recreation areas.
Staff submitted the following comments and recommendations regarding the Active Recreation Area
to be constructed:
1. The proposed plan meets the area requirements for the Active Recreation Area. The plan
is required to provide 21,600 S.F. of Active Recreation Area and it is proposing
24,541 S.F. of Active Recreation Area.
2. Staff recommends approval of the walking path, benches, picnic tables, horseshoe pits,
shuffleboard court and swing set.
3. Staff recommends denial of all of the grass area (as delineated on the plan) around the
walking path as active recreation area as this area is part of the stormwater management
area. The walking path itself is counted towards the active recreation area. The walking
path is calculated by itself. (Article 5, Section 10.155) The area in the immediate
proximity of the benches and picnic tables should count towards the active recreation
area.
4. Staff recommends that one swing on the swing set be for a small child.
5. The following items should be included on the Plan to clarify the construction of the
recreation area improvements:
a. Provide a list of the proposed features on the Active Recreation Plan (i.e. the
number of benches, picnic tables, etc).
b. Revise the square footage of the shuffleboard area on Landscape and Recreation
Plan Sheet to state 6,763 S.F.

COMMITTEE MEETING OF JULY 11, 2011 PAGE 3
c. Provide accessibility to one picnic table in both the horseshoe and shuffleboard
areas.
d. Provide accessibility to one horseshoe pit and the shuffleboard court.
e. Identify the protective ground covering material under the swing set.
f. Provide a sidewalk connection from the sidewalk near the horseshoe pits area to the
sidewalk at the end of the west side of the entrance drive.
g. Provide an accessible picnic table.
6. The applicant is reminded of the requirements for construction phasing of the recreation
area as associated with the development of the residential units.
Article 5, §10.6 Construction phasing. The recreation and open space areas shall
be completed in a proportion equal to or greater than the proportion of residential
dwelling units completed, except that one hundred (100) percent of the recreation
and open space areas shall be completed prior to issuing building permits for the
final twenty (20) percent of the dwelling units proposed. Building permits shall not
be issued for dwelling units unless the requirements of this section are met.
7. There shall be provisions which ensure that the common open space land (including
active recreation area) shall continue as such and be properly managed and maintained.
The developer shall either retain ownership and responsibility for maintenance of such
open land; or provide for and establish one (1) or more organizations for the ownership
and maintenance of all common open space i.e. a Homeowners Association. The
organization shall be responsible for maintenance, insurance and taxes on the common
open space.
a. Add a note on the Site Plan regarding who is responsible for maintenance, and
insurance on the common open space.
8. In the event that major changes and revisions to the Site Plan occur in the finalization
of the Site Plan, contact the Planning Office. Examples include reorientation of
buildings, relocation of site components like stormwater management areas, and
increases in floor area. These changes may require resubmission for review by the
Development Advisory Committee, Planning Commission, or other agencies and
commissions making recommendations in regards to the plan.
Mr. Garth Jones, Becker Morgan Group, indicated that, due to the close proximity to the
Modern Maturity Center, it is anticipated that there will be a significant number of seniors residing
at these apartments. He also confirmed the Group’s concurrence with staff’s recommendations.
In response to Mrs. Horsey, Mrs. Ann Marie Townshend, Director of Planning and Community
Development, reminded members that the Modern Maturity Center had previously objected to a
driveway connection between the two (2) sites; however, the Modern Maturity Center has agreed to
a multi-use path for interconnection.

floor. The second building, located on South New Street, is a 34,896 S.F. residential building with
24 apartments.
As part of the Site Plan review process for this project, Ms. Cornwell stated that the applicant has

120 South Governors Avenue will provide recreation amenities in accordance with the design
specifications described in Article 5, Section 10 of the Zoning Ordinance. The Plan indicates that
5,210 S.F. of land would be reserved as Active Recreation Area. The Active Recreation Areas are

and benches behind the South Governors Avenue building and a gazebo with picnic tables next to
the South New Street building.
South Governors Avenue

proposed within this area.
South New Street
The gazebo with picnic tables and grass area is 3,158 S.F. The area is accessible from the side and
rear of the residential building. The landscaped area includes four (4) picnic tables surrounding the
gazebo.
Ms. Cornwell reminded members that the Active Recreation Area Plan must be reviewed by the
Parks, Recreation, and Community Enhancement Committee for a recommendation prior to
consideration of the Site Development Master Plan by Planning Commission. She reviewed
information from the submitted Plan (dated June 17, 2011) for the Active Recreation Area to be

buildings, relocation of site components like stormwater management areas, and
increases in floor area. These changes may require resubmission for review by the
Development Advisory Committee, Planning Commission, or other agencies and
commissions making recommendations in regards to the plan.
In response to Mrs. Russell, Mrs. Cornwell indicated that, although there will be open grass areas,
the recreation plan does not include any specific recreation facilities for small children. Mrs. Russell
suggested that the owners consider providing recreational facilities for small children.
Responding to Mr. Lewis, Mr. Gregg Moore, Becker Morgan Group, stated that the fence is
proposed to enhance architectural appearance; however, it will also provide a separation from the
single-family neighborhoods. Mr. Moore stated that a stationary grill and pavers will be included
to replace the gazebo.

PARKS, RECREATION, AND COMMUNITY ENHANCEMENT
COMMITTEE MEETING OF JULY 11, 2011 PAGE 7
For clarification, Mr. Moore explained that the DDP is attempting to facilitate the project by
obtaining approvals from the Planning Commission and addressing questions and concerns of the
Delaware Department of Transportation (DelDOT) and other agencies, etc., in order to offer the
project for sale to a developer to build. DDP does not intend to construct the buildings; however,
it is attempting to make the project attractive to developers.
Mr. William Neaton, Economic Development Director, reminded members that the concept for this
project was a result of the Downtown Dover charrette process.
In response to Mrs. Horsey, Mr. Moore stated that the space is inadequate for a gazebo, even if a
smaller structure were to be considered.
Mr. Moore confirmed concurrence with staff's recommendations.
Mr. Lewis moved to recommend acceptance of the Active Recreation Plan for Lands of
Downtown Dover Partnership located at 120 S. Governors Avenue, as presented and with the
inclusion of staff’s comments and recommendations. The motion was seconded by
Mr. Anderson and unanimously carried.
Semi-Annual Report - Statistics Regarding Jobs and Businesses Gained and Lost in the City
of Dover Since July 2010
Mr. William Neaton, Economic Development Director, reviewed the semi-annual report of
employment statistics on the 14 largest employers in the Dover area and reminded members that this
information is updated and presented to members on a semi-annual basis. He also reminded
members that his office has established relationships with the management and human resources
departments of these companies in order to track job growth or decline.
Mr. Neaton stated that he has visited many local businesses, and that (at the request of the previous
City Manager, Mr. Anthony DePrima) Mrs. Lisa Gardner, Departmental Budget and Support Staff
Supervisor, Public Utilities Department, has attended these meetings with him to discuss utility
concerns. Mr. Neaton indicated that, in the course of these meetings, Dover Downs was the only
business that relayed concerns regarding the cost of utility services.
Responding to Mr. Lewis, Mr. Neaton stated that Dover Downs has genuine concerns regarding the
lack of revenues derived from gaming tables; however, current discussion regarding the possibility
of layoffs and revenue concerns are the result of tax and fee burdens imposed by the State.
In response to Mr. Anderson, Mr. Neaton stated that a very large business intends to occupy the
Wal-Mart facility in Dover and the structure is not expected to remain vacant for a significant length
of time; therefore, the City should not be impacted financially. He agreed to discuss the possibility
of a partnership to enhance economic development with representatives of Delaware State
University, similar to the one that exists between the University of Delaware and the City of Newark.

UPDATES
The following updates were provided to members:
Puncheon Run Watershed Action Team and Flood Plain Mapping
Mr. Scott Koenig, Interim City Manager, Public Services Manager/Director of Public Works,
advised members that since the last meeting of the Puncheon Run Watershed Action Team in
March/April 2011, Mr. Eugene Ruane (former City Council member) has worked diligently to secure
assistance from a local surveyor who was successful with a previous Letter of Map Amendment
(LOMA) application and is providing that information to area residents to apply for amendment if
they choose. He stated that some of the residents have moved forward with the process; however,
it is being done privately. As a result, Mr. Koenig suggested that no further updates be provided
since staff has achieved its original purpose. However, he assured members that staff will continue
to work on flooding issues in the Puncheon Run Basin as development projects are submitted in that
area, or if there are additional opportunities for subdivision or individual site retrofitting.
Mr. Lewis moved to recommend that the Update for the Puncheon Run Watershed Action
Team and Flood Plain Mapping be removed from future agendas for the Committee. The
motion was seconded by Mrs. Horsey and unanimously carried.
Planning and Funding for New Library
Ms. Margery Cyr, Library Director, advised members that the Governor's budget, which has been
signed, provides $2.5 million for the construction of the new Dover Public Library. She noted that
this brings the State's contribution to 100% at $10,584,357. Ms. Cyr stated that a $20,000 grant has
been received from the Marmot Foundation. She indicated that the Capital Campaign Committee
will launch the sale of memorial brick pavers for the new library later this week and that the pavers
will cost $125 each. She provided members with promotional brochures regarding this program
(Attachment #1). The Events Committee of the Capital Campaign is hosting a Summer Bash on
July 30, 2011 at the Fordham Brewery in Dover (tickets for the event are $25 in advance and $35 at
the door).
Ms. Cyr advised members that language was included in the Governor's budget to allow for the
Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Control (DNREC) and the City of Dover to
begin discussions about the purchase of the existing library building by DNREC. She stated that the
State's Facilities Management team and DNREC staff have toured the building and are making
arrangements for an appraisal of the property to be performed.
Responding to Mr. Anderson, Mr. Koenig stated that language was included in the State’s Bond Bill
to begin consideration of the sale of the current library facility. A meeting has been scheduled to
identify a boundary for property zoning and the appraisal will be performed subsequently. At that
point, City Council would consider the appraisal and, if there is an agreement in principle on the sale
of the property, those funds would be included in the FY 2013 State budget and the sale transaction
would be anticipated in July or August 2012, immediately prior to the opening of the new Library.
Página 9
PARKS, RECREATION, AND COMMUNITY ENHANCEMENT
COMMITTEE MEETING OF JULY 11, 2011 PAGE 9
Ms. Cyr stated that the construction of the new Library is projected for completion in June 2012,
which would provide the City an opportunity to ensure systems are working, move property,
organize, etc., prior to the grand opening scheduled in September 2012.
Ms. Cyr also advised members that fundraising continues to go very well. As of July 11, 2011, she
stated that the Library is only $344,056 away from meeting their fundraising goal that would fully
fund the new Library building, as approved by City Council in February.
CDBG Program
Mrs. Tracey Harvey, Community Development Director, reported the Status of FY 2010 CDBG
Projects as of June 2011. She advised members that funding for the current fiscal year has not yet
been received, noting that this is a new program year. She indicated that the approval letter from the
Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) is typically received in late July/early
August.
Mr. Clay Hammond, 505 Troon Road, (Chairman, Delaware Black Chamber of Commerce) noted
that economic development has been a significant CDBG activity, although the City does not receive
a large entitlement. He questioned if the use of CDBG funds could be expanded beyond housing to
assist in economic development and providing jobs, etc. Responding, Mrs. Townshend stated that,
although there is interest in funding these activities, dedicating funds is a “balancing act,” explaining
that members must also consider other needs, such as shelter for the homeless, as well as the amount
of funding that can be allocated for each category (15% cap for public service programs).
Responding to Mr. Anderson, Mrs. Harvey noted that the First Time Home Buyer Assistance
Program is a City-wide effort based on a “first come - first served” approach, and that currently
applicants are experiencing difficulty qualifying for mortgages.
Mrs. Harvey confirmed that the tour of the Housing Rehabilitation Program properties is scheduled
for the Committee meeting to be held on August 8, 2011, and that more information would be
forthcoming as details are finalized.
Mrs. Russell suggested that the City develop a form letter to be completed by homeowners to
evaluate the program and the contractors utilized for rehabilitation projects. Responding,
Mrs. Harvey stated that all work is guaranteed for one (1) year and if the homeowner has difficulty
contacting the contractor, she typically becomes involved and ensures that all issues are resolved.
In addition, she noted that homeowners receive warranties when there are window and/or roof
replacements.
Housing and Recovery Act of 2008 Funds (Neighborhood Stabilization Fund)
Mrs. Tracey Harvey, Community Development Director, reviewed the Update on the Housing and
Recovery Act of 2008 Funds (Neighborhood Stabilization Program).
Dover Youth Advisory Committee
Mrs. Russell reported that the City of Dover Youth Advisory Committee would be holding a “Fun
Day for Youth” on July 30, 2011 at Schutte Park from 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. Vendors (other than
food vendors) are welcome to participate at a cost of $25.

Mrs. Russell advised members that Ms. Olivia Lilje, Little Miss Delaware Sweetheart, attended a
recent Youth Advisory Committee Meeting and was presented with a journal to be kept and
maintained throughout her career.
Mrs. Russell stated that Ms. Kristen Dietz, Co-President of the Youth Advisory Committee, was
recognized at a recent Committee meeting for her participation in an oratorical contest, where she
represented three (3) states and achieved First Runner Up. Ms. Dietz was presented with a journal
at a recent Committee meeting.
With reference to the youth in the community, Mr. William Neaton, Economic Development
Director, indicated that the Downtown Dover Partnership has partnered with United Way for
“First Friday.” He noted that 400 book bags with summer reading books were distributed to the
youth during the event held on July 1, 2011. The next “First Friday” event will be the
Annual Beach Party scheduled for August 5, 2011, on Loockerman Street and beach balls will be
distributed. In addition, TD Bank will be attending and distributing summer reading program
materials for the youth. Mrs. Russell requested that she be provided additional flyers promoting
“First Friday” events.
Mr. Anderson suggested that there be more promotion of the Youth Advisory Committee’s
“Fun Day” event utilizing free resources, such as the City’s Website.
Mrs. Russell indicated that a Youth Talent Show is also being planned by New Beginnings, the New
Street civic association, and that she would provide further information as it becomes available.
Dover SunPark
Mr. Neaton advised members that there will be a ribbon cutting ceremony on August 17, 2011 at
1:00 p.m. for the The Dover SunPark. He noted that all work has been completed, construction
trailers are being removed, and that the testing phase has begun. He noted that commitment to
utilizing local labor has been exemplary.
Responding to Mrs. Russell, Mr. Neaton suggested that anyone wishing to tour the facility should
contact his office to arrange an appointment.
Prior to adjournment, Mr. Hammond noted that last year, there was a great deal of discussion by
Council and Council Committees regarding the emerging gang problem in the community. As a
result, the Delmarva Black Chamber of Commerce held a “Black Town Hall” meeting to focus on
concerns in the African American Community, including disparities involving education, economics,
health, etc., and to discuss the tremendous needs of the black community. He advised members that
discussions have been held with Delaware State University and it has been determined that a needs
assessment has not been performed in the African American Community. He requested that the
Committee recommend support of such an assessment to determine the causes of these problems
with a view toward developing solutions.

PARKS, RECREATION, AND COMMUNITY ENHANCEMENT
COMMITTEE MEETING OF JULY 11, 2011 PAGE 11
Responding, Mrs. Russell indicated that the Delaware Multicultural and Civic Organization
(DEMCO) recently received a grant to conduct a community needs assessment (which was not
targeted specifically to the African American Community) as it relates to education. Mr. Hammond
stated that the needs assessment being requested goes beyond just education.
Mr. Lewis suggested that Mr. Hammond provide the Committee a presentation at a future meeting
for further review and consideration of making such a recommendation to City Council.
Mrs. Russell explained that a formal request should be submitted for inclusion as an item on the
Committee’s agenda. For clarification, Mr. Koenig indicated that all such requests should be
submitted to the City Clerk’s Office.
Mr. Lewis moved for adjournment, seconded by Mr. Anderson and unanimously carried.
Meeting adjourned at 1:26 P.M.
