REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING The Regular Council Meeting was held on February 9, 2015 at 7:30 p.m. with Council President Bonar presiding. Council members present were Mr. Anderson, Mr. Dixon, Mr. Perza, Mr. Slavin, Mr. Hare, and Mr. Hutchison. Mrs. Williams was absent. Council staff members present were Mr. Koenig, Mrs. Townshend, Captain Stump, Chief Hall, City Solicitor Rodriguez, and Mrs. McDowell. Mrs. Mitchell was absent. Mayor Christiansen was also present (departed at 7:41 p.m.). OPEN FORUM The Open Forum was held at 7:15 p.m., prior to commencement of the Official Council Meeting. Council President Bonar declared the Open Forum in session and reminded those present that Council was not in official session and could not take formal action. Ms. Sarah Herbert, 223 North Bradford Street, read the following statement: On Monday, January 12, 2015 the City Council of Dover approved the Legislative, Finance, & Administrative Committee’s recommendation for 10 additional police officers increasing the authorized strength from 92 to 102. There was much public support in the chamber. In an Op Ed in a local newspaper, the citizens of Dover who supported this increase were labeled as "special interests groups". The only special interest we shared was wishing no longer be victims of crime in our own neighborhoods and to insure our city's ability to grow as a safe place to live and do business. I want to remind you why we need to fund these officers - crime creeps - it might be on New Street today but it could just as easily be in areas like Fox Hall tomorrow. All you have to do is read the news paper. As police attack crime in Wilmington, the crime will likely move south to Dover. As Mr. Hutchison stated, the first job of the City of Dover government is to provide public safety to all citizens. Chief Bernat pointed out that within the next 5 years there would be mandatory retirement for 9 officers. He stated that it would take 18 months to replace a retiring officer. He made clear that the various training officers are required to take and the Family and Medical Leave Act has had a direct impact on the number of available officers to respond to 911 calls. I believe we need the additional officers to increase safety for all. Mr. Hare recalled Chief Hosfelt requesting additional officers in 2011, the request was denied. Mr. Hare concluded City's requests for funding anything is a matter of prioritizing - he felt that these officers would be needed, supported the request and did not feel it should be deferred. It's been deferred since 2011, it's time to prioritize our citizens well being and decide how much a safer community is worth. When additional people are hired for any job, you have to pay for them. Mrs. Williams stated she does not usually support tax increases, but for public safety it may be necessary. My husband and I will happily support a tax increase to make

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF FEBRUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 2 Dover a safe place to live and work and to allow our businesses to thrive. This important matter cannot be ignored without dire consequences to the City and its citizens. Remember, crime goes where the local leaders and citizens allow it to go. Mr. George Gaudioso, 167 Maple Glen Drive, referring to the item entitled “Discussion - Responsibilities and Reporting Structure for the Mayor and City Manager and Continuation of Full-Time Status for the Position of Mayor”, stated that he had read the October 27, 2014 and December 8, 2014 minutes of the Legislative, Finance, and Administration Committee meetings and he felt that they were very pertinent to the current consideration of changing the structure of the City government, which will have a direct impact on how the government functions and how the citizens will deal with the government. Mr. Gaudioso noted that he filed to run for Mayor because of this issue and his strong belief in the Council/Manager form of government. He believes it is the most efficient and cost effective form of government and he was concerned that the options being proposed by the Committee will create a very strong Mayor. Mr. Gaudioso urged residents to look into this issue because it will effect them. Mrs. Paula Kinsey, 224 North State Street, stated that the Dover Post Office looks like it is ready to collapse. Noting that the federal government leases the property for $1 a year, she requested that the outside area be cleaned up and the building repaired and maintained. Mr. Joseph D'Urso, 305 North State Street, referring to the item entitled “Amendment to Motion Related to Dover Police Department - Permission to Increase Authorized Strength of Police Officers from 92 to 102”, urged members to reject any attempt to revoke the prior decision to increase the strength of the police force. He noted that Dover’s tax rate is very low and the amount of the proposed increase could hardly dissuade anyone from taking up residence in Dover; however, the crime situation could. Mr. D’Urso reminded members that there was another shootout the previous morning, which had been happening with far too much regularity. He cited the previous day’s Wilmington News Journal article which indicated that the City of Wilmington, a city which is struggling to remove its name from the list of most dangerous cities in the United States, had authorized the hiring of additional police to bring the force to 320. Mr. D’Urso noted that Wilmington has 286 citizens per police officer and Dover has approximately 386 citizens per police officer. He urged City Council not to alter their previous decision. Mr. Jack Foley, 306 North Bradford Street, stated that he had lived on Bradford Street for the past 25 years and, just this year, he and his wife are considering moving out of Dover because of the crime element that is moving into their neighborhood. He stated that they had found drug paraphernalia in the back of their garage and had busted up groups of people there. They and their neighbors had things stolen from their porches and yards. Mr. Foley stated that he supports the hiring of 10 additional officers so that they have more officers to patrol his area. The invocation was given by Reverend Theodore Henderson, followed by the Pledge of Allegiance. AGENDA ADDITIONS/DELETIONS Council President Bonar requested that Item #2C - Delaware Division of the Architecture Institute of America Award be deferred.

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF FEBRUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 3 Mr. Hutchison moved for approval of the agenda, as amended. The motion was seconded by Mr. Dixon and unanimously carried. Mr. Hare moved for approval of the Consent Agenda, seconded by Mr. Dixon and carried by a unanimous roll call vote (Williams absent). ADOPTION OF MINUTES - REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING OF JANUARY 12, 2015 The Minutes of the Regular Council Meeting of January 12, 2015 were unanimously approved by motion of Mr. Hare, seconded by Mr. Dixon and bore the written approval of Mayor Christiansen.

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF FEBRUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 4 PRESENTATION - CERTIFIED MUNICIPAL CLERK DESIGNATION - DENISE L. DEVINE Mayor Christiansen and Council President Bonar presented Ms. Denise L. Devine, Assistant City Clerk, with her Certified Municipal Clerk certificate. Mayor Christiansen, on behalf of himself, Council President Bonar, members of Council, and City Clerk’s Office staff, stated that they were all aware that many hours of training go into securing certification and that they were very proud of her. Council President Bonar stated that becoming a Certified Municipal Clerk is a pretty significant accomplishment and holds great weight in municipal governments throughout the United States. PROCLAMATION - BLACK HISTORY MONTH The City Clerk read the following Proclamation into the record: WHEREAS, in 1915, Carter G. Woodson founded the Association for the Study of Negro Life and History, now known as the Association for the Study of African American Life and History. He believed that historical truth would diminish lies and usher in a new era of equality, opportunity, and racial democracy; and WHEREAS, few imagined that African Americans would be appreciated in music, art or literature and fewer could have predicted the prominence achieved in shaping world politics, war, and diplomacy. A century later, few can deny the role of African Americans in the making of American history; and WHEREAS, African Americans used their talents to change how the world viewed them. Artists gave an abundance of cultural gifts including jazz, poetry, and African art; athletes dominated individual and team sports, transforming baseball, track and field, football, boxing, and basketball; and African American activism transformed race relations, challenged American foreign policy, and became the American conscience on human rights; and WHEREAS, the Association for the Study of African American Life and History has selected "A Century of Black Life, History, and Culture" as the 2015 National Black History Month Theme. NOW, THEREFORE, I, ROBIN R. CHRISTIANSEN, MAYOR OF THE CITY OF DOVER, DELAWARE do hereby proclaim February 2015 as BLACK HISTORY MONTH in the City of Dover and urge all citizens to reflect on the positive influence African Americans have made on our culture, and in our community and country in the last century. RENEWAL OF MOTION RELATED TO FINAL READING OF PROPOSED ORDINANCE #2014-24 - REZONING REQUEST FOR PROPERTIES LOCATED AT 21 AND 27 SAULSBURY ROAD AND 983 FOREST STREET, OWNED BY FAITHWORK, LLC Mr. Perza reminded members that, during their Regular Meeting of January 12, 2015, Council considered the rezoning request for properties located at 21 and 27 Saulsbury Road and 983 Forest Street, owned by Faithwork, LLC. At the conclusion of the public hearing, Council denied the request.

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF FEBRUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 5 Mr. Perza moved to renew the motion to accept the recommendation of the Planning Commission to approve the rezoning of the properties located at 21 Saulsbury Road (15,505 S.F.+/-), 27 Saulsbury Road (9,515 S.F.+/-), and 983 Forest Street (8,276 S.F.+/-), owned by Faithwork, LLC. The properties are currently zoned C-PO (Commercial and Professional Office) and subject to the COZ-1 (Corridor Overlay) and the proposed zoning is IO (Institutional and Office) and subject to the COZ-1 (Corridor Overlay Zone). The motion was seconded by Mr. Hutchison and carried by a unanimous roll call vote (Williams absent). Mrs. Ann Marie Townshend, Director of Planning and Community Development, stated that the applicant for the rezoning, and the lessee at the property, Psychotherapeutic Services, Inc., submitted additional information that addresses the safety concerns that were raised at the last Council meeting. A site diagram of the property showing the three (3) parcels that surround the Subway at the corner of Saulsbury Road and Route 8 was also provided. Mrs. Townshend noted that the information provided is very specific to the applicant’s use and, if the request to rezone the property to the IO (Institutional and Office) classification were approved, any use that is permitted in that zoning district would also be permitted. She noted that the current and proposed zones are similar; however, the current zone is more restrictive. Responding to Mr. Hutchison, Mrs. Townshend stated that they had not yet determined if a fire suppression system would be required. She noted that they are awaiting documentation from the applicant’s architect indicating how they would meet the applicable building and fire codes. Mr. John Sigler, General Counsel for Psychotherapeutic Services, stated that there were a number of people present to answer any questions that Council may have. He noted that a letter of clarification from Mr. Howard Giddens, Prevention & Behavioral Health Program Administrator with the State of Delaware Department of Services for Children, Youth and Their Families, was included in the supplemental information that Council had received. Responding to Mr. Hutchison, Mr. Sigler stated that there would be no fewer than two (2) trained staff members in any occupied house on the site and a teacher and teacher’s aide would be in the classroom. Mr. Sigler advised members that the property would be surrounded by a four (4) foot fence in the front and a six (6) foot fence in the back. Mr. Hutchison asked if any of the residents would be convicted of or arrested for sex offenses or violent crimes. Mr. Giddens stated that exclusionary criteria for this facility would be adjudicated sex offenders because it would not be a specialized facility to meet those needs. He noted that violent crime offenders would also be excluded because they are dealt with in the juvenile justice system, not behavioral health systems. Mr. Hare moved for approval of the rezoning request, as recommended by the Planning Commission. The motion was seconded by Mr. Slavin and, by a unanimous roll call vote (Williams absent), Council adopted Ordinance #2014-24, as follows:

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF FEBRUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 6 AN ORDINANCE AMENDING THE ZONING ORDINANCE AND ZONING MAP OF THE CITY OF DOVER BY CHANGING THE ZONING DESIGNATION OF PROPERTIES LOCATED AT 21 SAULSBURY ROAD, 27 SAULSBURY ROAD, AND 983 FOREST STREET WHEREAS, the City of Dover has enacted a zoning ordinance regulating the use of property within the limits of the City of Dover; and WHEREAS, it is deemed in the best interest of zoning and planning to change the permitted use of property described below from C-PO (Commercial and Professional Office Zone) and subject to the COZ-1 (Corridor Overlay Zone) to IO (Institutional and Office Zone) and subject to the COZ-1 (Corridor Overlay Zone). NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED BY THE MAYOR AND COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF DOVER, IN COUNCIL MET: 1. That from and after the passage and approval of this ordinance the Zoning Map and Zoning Ordinance of the City of Dover have been amended by changing the zoning designation from C-PO (Commercial and Professional Office Zone) and subject to the COZ-1 (Corridor Overlay Zone) to IO (Institutional and Office Zone) and subject to the COZ-1 (Corridor Overlay Zone) on properties located at 21 Saulsbury Road, consisting of 15,505+/- S.F.; 27 Saulsbury Road, consisting of 9,515+/- S.F.; and 983 Forest Street, consisting of 8,276+/- S.F., owned by Faithwork, LLC. ADOPTED: FEBRUARY 9, 2015 AMENDMENT TO MOTION RELATED TO DOVER POLICE DEPARTMENT - PERMISSION TO INCREASE AUTHORIZED STRENGTH OF POLICE OFFICERS FROM 92 TO 102 During their Regular Meeting of January 12, 2015, City Council approved the Legislative, Finance, and Administration Committee's recommendation to approve Chief Paul Bernat’s request for 10 additional police officers, thereby increasing the authorized strength from 92 to 102. Mr. Hutchison stated that he stands strongly behind public safety. He noted that the City was embarking on major target area initiatives and requested Mrs. Ann Marie Townshend to provide a brief update on the Downtown Development District Designation. Mrs. Townshend advised members that the City of Dover received a grant to be used for new construction or the rehabilitation of residential and business properties. Once the property owner spends more than $25,000, they will receive a 20 percent rebate on their construction expenses. She noted that Kent County had committed their own funds for matching grants, up to $10,000. Mrs. Townshend stated that the City would be instituting a number of incentives, including impact fee and building permit waivers, as well as tax abatement on the value of improvements and tax benefits for the purchase of owner occupied homes. She noted that these incentives were designed to entice people to invest in the downtown area. Mrs. Townshend advised that there had been quite a bit of interest in both the residential and commercial incentives along the Loockerman Street corridor.

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF FEBRUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 7 Mrs. Townshend stated that there is also a Neighborhood Building Block Grant Program which provides funding for projects that are not eligible for the Downtown Development District funds, such as the cadet program or additional lighting in trouble areas. Mrs. Townshend clarified that Mr. Hutchison requested the overview in relation to the hiring of additional officers because reducing crime is not just about police officers; it is about a unified strategy and increasing home ownership, cleaning up the neighborhoods, and improving the lighting in trouble areas, which are all important to a crime reduction strategy. Mr. Hutchison stated that putting a policeman on every corner would not stop crime related to drug offenses. He noted that it would take a major commitment from the total City, including the Public Works Department, the Fire Marshal’s Office, Planning and Inspections, and the Police Department, to attack the problem from many different angles. Mr. Hutchison reiterated that law enforcement alone would not address these concerns and problems; however, a unified approach would. Mr. Hutchison advised members that he met with Chief Bernat and members of his staff to explain his concerns related to the hiring of 10 additional officers. He noted that, in addition to the salaries, benefits, and health care, the current unfunded liability is of great concern and the City has to make some financial changes. Mr. Hutchison stated that neither the City Manager nor the Controller/Treasurer were given an opportunity to consider the financial impact of hiring 10 additional officers. He urged delaying the hiring of the second five (5) officers until the request could be considered during the budget process. Responding to Mr. Hutchison, Mr. Koenig, City Manager, stated that Chief Bernat was preparing to request the hiring of an officer to replace a retiring officer and to civilianize another position. Mr. Hutchison moved to amend the motion adopted during the January 12, 2015 Regular Council Meeting for approval of the request for 10 additional police officers; thereby increasing the authorized strength from 92 to 102, to allow the hiring of five (5) officers for the March police academy and to consider the hiring of five (5) additional officers for the September police academy during the budget process. The motion was seconded by Mr. Anderson. Mr. Anderson stated that he supported the addition of 10 officers because the City needs more police; however, it should be part of a comprehensive strategy, which is underway. He thought the additional officers should be implemented in a sensible way over the course of a year instead of six (6) months because of the related costs, such as equipment, training, etc. that should be considered during the budget process. Mr. Anderson stated that he did not support reneging on the commitment to increase the authorized strength from 92 to 102. Mr. Slavin noted that Council made a commitment with their prior vote and they should live up to that commitment. He stated that, after voting to add 10 members to the Police Department, he was called spineless, in print, by a previous member of Council. It was stated that he caved in to special interests and, the best that he could determine from that evening, the special interest groups that he caved in to were two (2) separate groups of neighbors who had banded together to come out on a cold evening to have their voices heard, members of a church who came to them to express the concerns that they had, and leaders from the African-American community who came out to have their voices heard. Mr. Slavin stated that he would cave in to those special interest groups every

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF FEBRUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 8 time; however, he would not cave in to criminals, he would not be soft on crime, and he would not cave in to bean counters who look at balance sheets and tell them how to run the City. He stated that the City residents he had spoken to have had enough of the status quo. While Council held the line on taxes year after year over the last decade, they had watched the slow and systematic dismantling of the quality of life, which had been chipped away, little by little. Mr. Slavin noted that, while Wilmington struggles with a crime problem, it seems that Dover sits and watches, hoping it doesn't happen here. He suggested taking a more aggressive approach by hiring 10 officers and doing it quickly. Mr. Slavin stated that the City always finds the money. When $300,000 was needed to avoid lawsuits because someone made a mistake in the hiring process, they found that money in less than an hour. He noted that, earlier in the evening, the Legislative, Finance, and Administration Committee heard a report that, in fiscal year 2014, they finished $643,000 over in the personnel budget. Although he felt that this was a tremendous accomplishment and he commended the City Manager on it, he stated that there were funds that had not been programmed at their disposal. Mr. Slavin noted that part of those funds would be used to repopulate the contingency reserve, in case there is another $300,000 mistake, and suggested that they look at their priorities. Mr. Hare stated that, earlier in the evening, during the Legislative, Finance, and Administration Committee meeting, it was suggested that background checks be performed annually for anyone hired through the Parks and Recreation Department to work with the youth, feeling that they did not want anything to happen to the kids because of some dollars. He felt it would be the same if something were to happen to a resident. Mr. Hare mentioned spending money on a revenue neutral property reassessment, economic development, and other expenditures that may not be necessary, in addition to other areas that could be cut if they were not too spineless to do it. He agreed with Mr. Slavin that they always seem to find the money somehow. Mr. Hare reiterated his experience while on a police ride along and suggested that there needed to be enough officers to respond and to assist those responding when necessary. Mr. Dixon stated that he thought Council should stay with their original approval and work it out. Council President Bonar read the following statement: During the past few weeks, I've heard a litany of comments about our need to increase the strength of the Dover Police department. Guns, drugs, prostitution and general misconduct has invaded the central portion of Dover. As a resident, who lives there and witnesses it, I can't condone it. It makes me furious, when people who live outside the Central district say we can't police our way out of these things and refuse to acknowledge the fact that Dover is at a crisis point that, if left unchecked, will put us in the same category as Wilmington. If you live in Mayfair, Crossgates or other areas such as Foxhall or Foxhall West, you don't have to contend with the issues we're contending with in Central Dover. There is not a weekend that goes by that I don't hear, or hear about, fights, disorderly conduct, drug sales, prostitution, and gunshots in a neighborhood that was once considered to be one of the premier neighborhoods of Dover. North State Street - police action is taking place in this neighborhood on a regular basis - armed

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF FEBRUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 9 assaults, robberies - all being perpetrated by young people who seem to have missed the lessons of life that deal with respect for people, their possessions and their property. Let's call it what it is. I don't need the ministry, or some committee to meet to wring their hands and "find a way" to change things. Change will only come with accountability. If you break the law, you need to be held accountable. If you destroy someone's property, you need to be held accountable. If you disturb your neighbors with partying and loud music, you need to be held accountable. No warnings, no slaps on the wrist. If your child does any of those things, you need to be held accountable. Where were you when it came to teaching your child about respect? You'll recall that a couple of weeks ago, we voted to increase the allocated strength of the police department from 92 to 102, with 5 of those officers hired in time for a March police academy. Was it pretty? No! was it done in an orderly manner? No! But the fact is we authorized it, we'll find a way to pay for it this year and, I hope, find a way to fund it in the budget next year. In addition to the 10 officers being allocated to the police department, the chief and his administration asked for and received permission to hire cadets, who are not sworn Police officers, to assist with downtown patrols. And what happened, when we decided to do that - the ACLU and some people from the human relations community cried - Oh, they'll be a liability! Well, the liability, my friends, is in not taking definitive action. These additions are a small measure of things needed to help our city make its way through some the issues we are facing. The Dover police department has the quickest response time and the greatest percentage of crimes solved of any police department in Delaware, and we applaud them for their service. These are huge items, but one that's just as pressing is our need for fiscal responsibility. We simply can't hire our way out of this mess. We have an unfunded liability in th City of Dover that is north of $125 million. $125 million that can't go to repair infrastructure. $125 million that can't go to build a new youth recreation center. $125 million that can't go toward making Dover the gem that it really should be as the Capitol of Delaware. $125 million that won't go toward developing something in Dover that will cause us to be a destination. Face it folks ... Dover Days, Firefly ... a country music festival and Punkin Chunkin aren't good enough to make us a destination. They're all quaint and successful for their organizers and make us feel good, but they only last a few days a year. We need a community that is safe and attractive enough to make people want to live and work here. We don't need a community or business professionals that portray as a place where people are selling their homes in order to move to a safer town - those who are, are giving up. Change takes time and takes the will to do it. Without change, the prophecy of the naysayers will come true. I recently had a well known realtor tell me, “no one's moving to Dover .. what have we got to attract them here?"

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF FEBRUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 10 Well, sorry, Mr. realtor, if it weren't for you and a few others like you, we'd have built a civic center, we’d have built a riverwalk, we'd have attracted new businesses and filled our downtown, much of which is owned by landlords who can't or won't invest in their properties to make them more attractive. We should be forcing that to happen. Not asking - demanding. It’s all about accountability. Well, I may only be on Council a few more months. Any one of us can be voted off Council at the very next election. But I promise you one thing, I am not giving up. Mr. Hare stated that he spoke with the people in his district and had not talked to anyone who was opposed to hiring the officers. He also noted that the unfunded liability did not happen overnight. Mr. Hare referred to the incident when someone broke into his house while he and his grandchildren were there. He stated that $125M wouldn’t have mattered to him if something had happened to his grandchildren. Mr. Hare stated that you never know what you will feel until something like that happens to you. Captain Tim Stump stated that he and Chief Bernat met with Mr. Hutchison and, out of respect for Councilman Hutchison and the process itself, Chief Bernat agreed to allow the process to take place, as Mr. Hutchison requested. Captain Stump also stated that this in no way was to imply that they did not want or feel that they need the 10 officers moving forward. He noted that they have a great police department; however, they can always be better and with the 10 officers, they will be better. Mr. Anderson asked if it would make a public safety difference if the last five (5) of those 10 officers were phased in between September and March, as opposed to all in September. Responding, Captain Stump stated his opinion that the faster they can get the officers in the streets, the safer the public will be. The motion to amend the motion adopted during the January 12, 2015 Regular Council Meeting for approval of the request for 10 additional police officers; thereby increasing the authorized strength from 92 to 102, to allow the hiring of five (5) officers for the March police academy and to consider the hiring of five (5) additional officers for the September police academy during the budget process failed by a roll call vote of five (5) no (Anderson, Dixon, Slavin, Hare, and Bonar), two (2) yes (Perza and Hutchison), and one (1) absent (Williams). Mr. Hutchison stated that, for him, this was not about the addition of ten (10) police officers, it was about the process. PUBLIC HEARING - VIOLATION OF THE DANGEROUS BUILDING ORDINANCE FOR PROPERTY LOCATED AT 5 WELCH DRIVE, OWNED BY FEDERAL NATIONAL MORTGAGE ASSOCIATION (FANNIE MAE) A public hearing was duly advertised for this time and place to consider a violation of the Dangerous Building Ordinance at 5 Welch Drive, owned by Federal National Mortgage Association (Fannie Mae). Mrs. Ann Marie Townshend, Director of Planning and Community Development, explained that the property is a one (1) story, double-wide manufactured home. The dwelling was condemned as unfit for human habitation on October 29, 2014 due to no utilities and to the state of disrepair. The interior is full of mold and mildew due to water damage from numerous roof leaks and several windows have been busted. Staff had all the windows and doors boarded to

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF FEBRUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 11 the property on November 3, 2014. Since that time, the boards covering the rear door had to be re-secured several times. Currently the structure is still vacant, with no utilities and in a serious state of disrepair. Mrs. Townshend reviewed a presentation depicting the condition of the structure (Exhibit #1). Staff recommended that City Council take the following action for property located at 5 Welch Drive: 1) declare the building on this property dangerous; 2) order the property repaired or demolished by March 9, 2015 by the owner or equity owner at their own risk; 3) order the Building Inspector to cause the repair or demolition of the structure if not completed by the owner within 10 days of the date established by City Council; and 4) order the City Manager, with the assistance of the City Solicitor, to cause the cost of repairs or demolition to be charged against the land on which the building exists as a municipal lien or cause such cost to be added to the tax duplicate as an assessment, or to be levied as a special tax, or to be recovered in a suit at law against the owner. Responding to Mr. Dixon, Mrs. Townshend stated that the property was bank-owned and, although the owner of record and the lien holder had been notified of this action, they had not made any repairs to the property. Council President Bonar declared the Public Hearing open. Ms. Joyce Talley, President of the Council for Persimmon Park Place, stated that she was speaking on behalf of the residents and the community in support of the demolition of 5 Welch Drive. She noted that, in the past, the property had been a location for pit bull fighting, drugs used and sold, unattended minor children, and car and foot traffic until as late as 3:00 a.m. Ms. Talley indicated that it was her understanding that the previous owner, Mr. Moore, was in federal prison as a result of the dog fighting and drugs. Ms. Talley advised members that she had called and sent e-mails to the law firm representing Fannie Mae and had received no response. She noted that before the property was condemned, they had issues such as tall grass, trash and debris, teenagers hanging out, broken windows, missing handrails with crumbling steps, and generally unfit for habitation. Ms. Talley stated that this property had been a bone of contention with the residents of the community, who had lived in fear and retaliation. Ms. Vera Hunter stated that she shares the backyard with this property. She indicated that she was living in fear and had done so for 14 years. She stated that there was a rumor that the former owner was coming to burn the house down and she was fearful that her house would be burned down as well. There being no one else wishing to speak, the Public Hearing was closed. Mr. Hare moved for approval of staff’s recommendation, as follows: 1) declaring the building on this property dangerous; 2) ordering the property repaired or demolished by March 9, 2015 by the owner or equity owner at their own risk; 3) ordering the Building Inspector to cause the repair or demolition of the structures if not completed by the owner within 10 days of the

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF FEBRUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 12 date established by City Council; 4) ordering the City Manager with the assistance of the City Solicitor to cause the cost of repairs or demolition to be charged against the land on which the building exists as a municipal lien or cause such cost to be added to the tax duplicate as an assessment, or to be levied as a special tax, or to be recovered in a suit at law against the owner. The motion was seconded by Mr. Hutchison and carried by a unanimous roll call vote (Williams absent). REVIEW OF VIOLATION OF THE DANGEROUS BUILDING ORDINANCE FOR PROPERTY LOCATED AT 1370 COLLEGE ROAD, OWNED BY SARAH E. JONES During their Regular Meeting of October 27, 2014 City Council: 1) declared this building and all accessory structures on this property dangerous; 2) ordered the property to be repaired or demolished by November 27, 2014 (date revised) by the owner or equity owner at their own risk; 3) ordered the Building Inspector to cause the demolition of the structures if not completed by the owner within 10 days of the date established by City Council; and 4) ordered the City Manager with the assistance of the City Solicitor to cause the cost of demolition to be charged against the land on which the building exists as a municipal lien or cause such cost to be added to the tax duplicate as an assessment, or to be levied as a special tax, or to be recovered in a suit at law against the owner, with a proviso that the date for ordering the property repaired or demolished be March 27, 2015 with a review in two (2) months to ensure progress is being made. During their Regular Meeting of January 12, 2015, Council deferred consideration of this item until the next meeting. Mrs. Ann Marie Townshend, Director of Planning and Community Development, advised members that Code Enforcement staff examined the property earlier in the day. She advised members that minimal work had been done. The exterior of the property had been cleaned up to some extent and some of the tree branches had been trimmed back away from the dwelling; however, the house remained in much the same condition. Mrs. Townshend stated that there was still some junk and debris in the yard, although less than previously. No interior renovations had been completed and no applications for permits had been filed. The interior was still down to the studs and, other than a little clean-up, nothing had been done on the exterior. In response to Mr. Anderson, Mrs. Townshend stated that, in staff’s opinion, sufficient progress had not been made on the property. She indicated that Council’s initial action on this matter was to allow the property owner until March 27, 2015, noting that this was approximately (6) weeks away. She recommended that the property not be demolished until after this date but that staff begin the bid paperwork and asbestos work at this point. Responding to Mr. Dixon as to whether Ms. Jones had been notified, Mrs. Townshend stated that staff had not heard from the family since the Council meeting held on October 27, 2014; however, family was present at the time when the motion was made. In response to Mr. Perza regarding whether the demolition would still be on track for March 27, 2015 if Council took no action and whether staff’s update was provided to determine if Council had changed its mind, Mrs. Townshend stated that the motion made during the meeting of October 27, 2014 asked staff to provide an update after two (2) months.

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF FEBRUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 13 Mr. Dwayne Jones, 1290 West State College Road, stated that he had been sick for approximately a month and was unable to continue the work that he started. He managed to clean logs off of the house, got everything cut up, and got all the debris out before he became sick. He ordered windows, locks, and doors but had been unable to get back there yet. Mr. Anderson questioned whether Mr. Jones would be able to make significant progress over the next six (6) weeks. Responding, Mr. Jones stated that he could, reiterating that he had ordered doors, windows, etc. and had to get back with the contractors to get them back in the structure. Mr. Hare felt, now that Council had an update, that Council should wait until March 27, 2015 and see how the matter progressed between now and then. He indicated that the City had until March 27th to decide whether to proceed with demolition or pursue the next course of action. Mrs. Townshend stated that typically staff would not bring this matter back to Council after the time specified expires. If significant progress is not made by the date established by Council, staff would prepare the bid specifications and proceed with demolition. In response to Mr. Hare, she confirmed that it would be staff who would typically determine if progress had been made. Responding to Mr. Dixon regarding how staff would proceed if progress had been made, Mrs. Townshend stated that, by the motion passed in October 2014, all of the repairs should be complete by March 27, 2015. As a practical matter, if the owner were progressing well, staff would not demolish a building in the process of being actively improved; however, if progress were slow or stalled, staff would typically move forward with the demolition. In response to Mr. Bonar, Mr. Jones assured members that locks, windows, and doors could be installed by March 27, 2015. Mrs. Townshend stated that there were other problems with the property. Mr. Hare questioned if staff could provide another update at Council’s Regular Meeting scheduled for March, 9, 2015 and Mrs. Townshend responded affirmatively. Responding to Mr. Hutchison, Mrs. Townshend confirmed that windows and doors would not satisfy the needs of what must be done. She reiterated that the interior is down to the studs and expressed her belief that it needed a new roof; therefore, more than just windows and doors were required. She indicated that most of the improvements needed would require a building permit, and that no submissions for any type of building permit had been received. Mr. Hutchison cautioned Mr. Jones that, before making any type of improvements, he must clearly understand what needs to be done to meet staff’s concerns, because windows and doors would not pass the test. He noted that many things must be done to accomplish what is needed by Planning and Inspections. He cautioned Mr. Jones about investing “good money” and being unable to complete the task. Responding to Mr. Bonar, Mrs. Townshend confirmed that she could furnish Mr. Jones with the information needed.

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF FEBRUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 14 Mr. Dixon stated that once Mr. Jones gets a building permit, he could work toward getting the work done. Mrs. Townshend suggested that Mr. Jones schedule a meeting with Mr. Tim Taraila, the Chief of Code Enforcement. Mr. Perza expressed his perspective that Council did not need to “stay on top of” this matter. Council had approved the demolition and, rather than ordering demolition within one (1) month, had allowed six (6) months. He indicated his confidence that the Planning Department knew what they were doing. Mr. Perza did not feel that updates were required every two (2) weeks before the full Council to review something that had already been approved. He stated that the matter should be turned over to the Planning Department and indicated that he trusted their judgment. LEGISLATIVE, FINANCE, AND ADMINISTRATION COMMITTEE REPORT - DECEMBER 8, 2014 (EXCERPTED) The Legislative, Finance, and Administration Committee met on December 8, 2014 with Chairman Slavin presiding. Proposed Financial Reforms During the Committee meeting of June 23, 2014, Mr. Slavin advised members that during the June 11, 2014 Special City Council Meeting - Budget Review, he proposed a series of 14 financial reforms to be addressed over the next six (6) to nine (9) months that would assist in shaping the City's Budget for FY 2015/2016. He stated that the proposed reforms were clustered into four (4) separate areas, as follows: 1) public safety; 2) compensation policies; 3) property tax governance; and 4) restrictions on uses of appropriations. Property Tax Governance During their Regular Meeting of September 22, 2014, City Council considered the proposed financial reforms related to property tax governance, as follows: 9) Council shall not raise the property tax rate more than 9.5% without first holding a referendum on the proposed tax increase. This provision shall not apply in those years when a revenue-neutral adjustment to the tax rate is required because of property revaluation; and 10) Council shall not raise the property tax rate more than 9.5% without two (2) separate votes of a two-thirds majority vote of Council, with the requirement that a municipal election occur between the first and second vote. This provision shall not apply in those years when a revenue-neutral adjustment to the tax rate is required because of property revaluation. After much discussion, City Council referred financial reform #9 to staff and legal counsel for drafting as an ordinance, with the provision in the drafting of the ordinance that Council may vacate the provisions in times of unforeseen emergencies, and with the stipulation that the ordinance be reviewed four (4) years after implementation. It was noted that the Committee tabled proposed reform #10 since the intent of the reform was met with the Committee’s recommendation of proposed reform #9.

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF FEBRUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 15 Mr. Slavin explained that the purpose of proposed reform #9 was to restrict Council by establishing rules and parameters. He indicated that the objective was to remove the specter that action to address long-term issues could be delayed in hopes of “things just getting better,” or that they could be addressed by instituting a huge tax increase once every 10 years. He noted that the proposed reform would require City Council to ask the voters their opinion. Mr. Slavin noted that the legal opinion of the City Solicitor (as on file in the Office of the City Clerk) reiterated that referendums are non-binding. Mr. Anderson relayed his strong support for proposed reform #9 and urged members to submit the proposal to City Council for consideration. He felt that the provision was important to economic development since it would provide some measure of certainty. Mr. Anderson explained that there were organizations and businesses who were investing or looking to invest hundreds and millions of dollars in the City of Dover. If there were an assurance that tax increases would be done in a predictable, moderate fashion, this would add to economic certainty, which Mr. Anderson felt would be good for jobs and economic growth. He noted that if there were an urgent need for a major tax increase, it would be presented to the citizens. Mr. Anderson suggested that the proposal would provide sufficient ability to adjust the tax rate to address problems, explaining that it was difficult to foresee the need for a tax increase above 9% in one (1) year and he felt that if that were the case, this would indicate that the City was not being managed properly. In addition to benefitting existing and potential businesses, Mr. Anderson stated that this provision would also provide families more security by allowing them to budget from year to year without being subjected to an egregious tax increase. He again urged members to approve the proposal for City Council’s consideration. Mr. Hare indicated his objections, explaining that members of City Council were elected to manage and run the City of Dover and not to put the City in a position where an egregious tax increase would be required. He stated that members of City Council were elected to manage the City in such a manner as to eliminate wasteful spending rather than continuing it simply because it may require action that would cause someone to lose their job or be laid off. Mr. Hare noted that these are tough decisions that are made every day by elected officials throughout the State, except for the City of Dover. If it were necessary to raise taxes 23%, as proposed last year, and if this was necessary due to mismanagement, then he felt that this was the action that Council needed to take and if the residents opposed this, Council members would not be re-elected. Mr. Hare stated that former Council member Frances Weyandt once said to him, “If you wish to run for office only to worry about being re-elected, then you should not run for office.” Mr. Hare stated his objections to the proposed caps, as well as requiring citizens to vote on property tax increases, explaining that it is Council’s responsibility to make tough decisions. He advised members that some City employees have salaries that are well above the paygrade of comparable positions throughout the State. Mr. Hare felt that City Council should be pro-active in addressing such issues rather than taking action to cover mistakes.

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF FEBRUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 16 Mr. Hutchison felt very strongly that it was the responsibility of elected officials of the City of Dover to raise taxes. He noted, based on history, that the City had rarely raised taxes and felt that this was due to the close working relationships between City Council, the Mayor, City Manager, and Department Heads which ensured that the City was run effectively and efficiently. However, Mr. Hutchison believed that at some point it would be necessary for the City to raise taxes and that it should be the responsibility of the elected officials to take such action. There being no objections, Council President Bonar read a statement submitted by Mr. Thomas J. Leary (former member of City Council), as follows: As members of the City Council we are elected to represent our fellow citizens. We are expected to be informed on a myriad of issues, including budgetary ones, and to make appropriate decisions. These decisions can be at times challenging and difficult. They may even be unpopular. However, we are expected to make them. Proposing that a tax increase go to referendum, irregardless of the size, or whether binding or non-binding, is simply put, an abrogation of the duties of one's office. If we lived in a highly inflationary spiral one would not put tax increases on "auto-pilot". This would show a complete lack of leadership, be considered intellectually lazy, and would be regarded as an act of faithlessness by the public. I would submit to you that this proposed ordinance is no different in its application and effect. I am available should you wish to call and remain at your disposal. Council President Bonar indicated that he concurred with the statement submitted by Mr. Leary, as well as the comments made by Mr. Hare. He noted that voter turnout is historically dismal and, as a result, a few hundred citizens of the City make the decision as to who the City’s Mayor is, the City Council representatives for their district, and the at-large Council member. Mr. Bonar relayed concern with allowing this same authority in determining the City’s tax structure. He too felt that the citizens elect members of City Council to make decisions and have put their faith in their elected officials to do so and take the appropriate action. Mr. Bonar stated that he feels that the City’s taxes are extremely low and that there should be a substantial increase in property taxes. He did not feel that the matter should be submitted to the citizens for a referendum, explaining that such action is an abrogation of City Council’s responsibility. If citizens are not pleased with the action taken by City Council, they have the power not to re-elect their representative. However, Mr. Bonar did agree that such a proposal would provide certainty from an economic development standpoint, noting that businesses do depend on certainty. Since, at this time, it was City Council’s right and responsibility to make such decisions, he did not feel there was a need for any change.

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF FEBRUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 17 Mr. Sudler suggested, when there are important decisions facing members of City Council, that members hold district meetings with the community to provide information regarding such matters. It was his feeling that being aware of the opinions of their constituents would assist members in knowing how they should vote on certain issues. Mayor Christiansen expressed his concurrence with former City Councilman Leary, as well as Council President Bonar, explaining that members of City Council and the Mayor have a distinct responsibility to the public to keep them informed and, likewise, the public has a responsibility to follow the actions of City Council if they have an interest in the future of their City. Mayor Christiansen cautioned members against any compromise of the responsibilities of City Council in taking action they feel is necessary for the betterment of the City. Mr. Slavin stated that regardless of voter turnout, members should not stop listening to and considering the concerns of their constituents. Long before making difficult decisions, he explained that City Council’s first responsibility as an elected official is to listen to their constituents. Mr. Slavin reminded members that the oath of office which each member took states that their “power flows from the people.” Regarding the reference to such a referendum being an abrogation of City Council’s responsibility, he indicated his objections, explaining that City Council would be submitting the matter to the people and Council would be making the decisions regarding the expenses that would cause the referendum. As a result, Mr. Slavin stated that it would not be an abrogation to get to that point; however, it would be an abrogation to ignore the wishes of taxpayers and not to have their voices heard. Mr. Anderson suggested that the proposal would provide an additional advantage relative to arbitration situations with labor. He explained that jurisdictions that have tax control referendums, such as Colorado and South Dakota, are more able to control labor costs and, coincidentally, have some of the lowest unemployment rates. He noted that after studying this matter, he discovered that across the country the proposed initiative goes hand in hand with positive economic growth, if not done in such a manner that it becomes too restrictive. Mr. Hare advised members that he is constantly contacted by constituents in the Second District relaying their comments, concerns, and opinions; therefore, he would very much be made aware of how his constituents would feel regarding any proposed tax increase. In addition, he stated that he attends homeowner association meetings, which provide another means of obtaining the opinions of his constituents. Mr. Anderson noted that, in addition to being contacted by residents of the Fourth District, he is also contacted by those from the Second District, which he felt was an indication that those residents are very particularly tax sensitive. Due to the importance of this issue, he felt that its merits required further discussion by Council; therefore, he suggested that the matter be forwarded to City Council with no recommendation from the Committee.

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF FEBRUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 18 The Committee forwarded proposed Financial Reform #9, Property Tax Governance, to City Council without a recommendation for the purpose of having a full discussion by City Council. (Note: Financial Reform #9, Property Tax Governance, states that Council shall not raise the property tax rate more than 9.5% without first holding a referendum on the proposed tax increase; this provision shall not apply in those years when a revenue-neutral adjustment to the tax rate is required because of property revaluation. The proposed policy was revised by City Council during their meeting of September 22, 2014 to include that there be a provision in the drafting of the ordinance that Council may vacate the provisions in times of unforeseen emergencies, with the stipulation that the ordinance be reviewed four (4) years after implementation.) During their Regular Meeting of January 12, 2015, Council deferred action on this item. During the Regular Meeting of City Council on February 9, 2015, Mr. Slavin reminded members that this matter was discussed by the Legislative, Finance, and Administration Committee on two (2) different occasions and was forwarded to Council with no recommendation. Mr. Slavin stated he was hopeful that this would receive favorable treatment by Council. His understanding, from private conversations, was that the proposal did not enjoy the support of Council and indicated that he would not bring it forward for a vote. However, he expressed his support for the principle behind it, that a large tax increase should be avoided at all costs and the City should be looking at smaller, incremental approaches to “right-sizing” the budget. Mr. Slavin stated that he would use the backdrop of a potential referendum to bring this matter back if needed. He thanked Councilman Anderson for his support of this proposal during the Committee discussions. Mr. Dixon expressed his opinion that Council should work at this. Although he did not support the 9.5% tax rate threshold, he felt this matter should be brought back to Council. By unanimous consent, this matter was tabled. Discussion - Responsibilities and Reporting Structure for the Mayor and City Manager and Continuation of Full-Time Status for the Position of Mayor Mr. Slavin stated that the responsibilities and reporting structure for the Mayor and City Manager and continuation of full-time status for the position of Mayor had been discussed by the Committee during the past several meetings. He reminded members that during their Regular Meeting of September 22, 2014, City Council approved the Committee's recommendation for future consideration of Option A, as follows: a full-time mayor's position, with consideration of changing the City's current form of government to a mayor/council form of government, where the city manager and chief of police would be appointed by the mayor and confirmed by City Council, and that any positions which currently report to council that are moved to report to the mayor would only be removed for cause and with council approval. Members of City Council also approved the Committee's recommendation that the Council President open a dialogue with the parties to the 1988 Consent Decree.

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF FEBRUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 19 As requested during the Committee meeting of October 27, 2014, Mr. Slavin noted that members had been provided an organizational chart for Option A as well as the current organizational chart for the City. In addition to considering maintaining the current responsibilities and reporting structure, as well as Option A, a strong mayor form of government, Mr. Slavin stated that Mr. Anderson may have an additional option for the Committee’s consideration. It was his hope that at the conclusion of the meeting, the Committee would forward this matter to City Council with or without recommendations, explaining that the Committee’s role was to allow for the discussion, to include the public, and then to provide City Council with this information to allow a full debate. Mr. Sudler reminded members that, during the Legislative, Finance, and Administration Committee meeting held on September 8, 2014, he had relayed his support for a full-time Mayor with strong administrative powers, which was presented as Option A. Mr. Sudler noted that members had indicated they welcomed any suggestions relative to Option A and, as a result, he developed ideas for a job description and a job appraisal report for the Mayor, which he submitted and briefly reviewed. Noting that Option A referred to a strong mayor form of government, Mr. Slavin suggested, for clarification, that any reference to the City’s current form of government be considered as “Option B.” Referring to the job description provided by Mr. Sudler, Mr. Anderson suggested replacing Item #4 - bachelor degree, under the minimum requirements, with the requirement for the Mayor to have been a City resident for two (2) years, which would mirror the City Charter. Referring to the proposed organizational chart, he felt that the City Clerk’s Office should remain under City Council since it serves as Council staff and that the Finance Office should also remain under City Council to provide “checks and balances.” Concurring with Mr. Anderson, Mr. Hare also felt that the Mayor should not appoint the Deputy Chief of Police, suggesting that the Police Chief should have that authority. Although he had no preference regarding the City having a full-time or part-time Mayor, if the City elected a full-time Mayor, Mr. Hare felt that the City should have a strong mayor form of government. Mayor Christiansen stated his feeling that the City Manager should be hired and maintained by City Council, although he noted that in the past a Board was created to hire other officials for the City. He agreed with most of the recommendations submitted by Mr. Sudler; however, he felt that the job appraisal would be the responsibility of the public rather than City Council. Responding, Mr. Hare noted that as an elected official, the public would be indicating their opinion regarding the Mayor’s performance every four (4) years through the election.

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF FEBRUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 20 Mr. Sudler felt that if the City chose to have a strong mayor form of government, the Mayor would be required to submit reports to City Council and, although he understood that the public would ultimately either re-elect the Mayor or vote him/her out of office, since that would occur only every four (4) years, he felt that the Mayor’s performance on yearly goals and objectives should be appraised annually by City Council. It was Mr. Hutchison’s opinion that a major change that should occur would be to give the responsibilities and leadership of the City Manager more authority in the City, which would include the operations and budgetary issues of the Police Department. He stated that the City Manager should report to the Mayor and City Council. This would tie everybody into the total operations, noting that there are problems with the current system. As an example, Mr. Hutchison reminded members that earlier in the meeting, the Police Chief had submitted a request regarding the Cadet Program. Rather than submitting the request to the Mayor, Mr. Hutchison felt that it should have been submitted to the City Manager due to possible budget implications, since the City Manager is responsible for the City’s budget. After the City Manager’s review, the request should have then been presented to the Mayor and Council President to bring forward for consideration by the Committee. Mr. Hutchison reiterated the need for the City Manager to be in charge of the City’s operations. He reminded members that, according to the City Charter, anyone 18 years of age or older can be elected as Mayor. Considering the complexity of the City, the budget, and the responsibilities of the Mayor’s Office, he stated that although he supports a full-time Mayor, the day-to-day operations and financial responsibilities should belong to the City Manager since that individual is selected based on education, knowledge, and work experience necessary to oversee and run a City, and the City Manager would ultimately report to the elected officials. For informational purposes, Mayor Christiansen advised members that the request for the Cadet Program was presented to the City Manager for his review prior to its submission to the Committee. Mayor Christiansen expressed his feeling that it is imperative, due to the Charter requirements for the Mayor to be responsible for the safety and security of the City, that the Mayor remain in charge of the Police Department. However, he conceded that the City Manager should work closely with the Mayor and Police Chief on the budget for the Police Department. Responding to Mr. Hare, Mayor Christiansen indicated concurrence with the proposal submitted by Mr. Sudler, feeling that the City of Dover needs a strong mayor with a professional City Manager. Mr. Hare explained his concern with the City Manager being held accountable for those departments that are not his responsibility, such as the Police Department, as it relates to the City’s Budget. He reiterated his opinion that the City should have a strong mayor form of government. Mr. Dixon stated his agreement with the City having a strong mayor form of government. Noting that changes would be required, he urged members to remember that the positions are held by human beings and that people should be treated in a fair manner.

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF FEBRUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 21 Mr. Slavin reminded members that the results of the 2004 referendum regarding the City having a full-time or part-time Mayor reflected that 3,185 voters favored a full-time Mayor and 1,285 voters favored a part-time Mayor. It was his observation, having experience working with governments, that simple reorganizations inside governments can be difficult. He stated that an overhaul of the entire form of government would require an order of magnitude well over difficult. Although he could support many of the proposed changes, Mr. Slavin stated that they would be time consuming and expensive to complete and a strong mayor form of government would be more costly than the current form of government. He suggested that this matter be presented to City Council for a final decision. Council President Bonar indicated his support for a full-time Mayor; however, he also supported the City Manager serving as the chief business operations manager for the City. As previously mentioned, the City Manager is responsible for submitting a draft budget for the entire City and as such, Mr. Bonar felt that all departments should be placed under the City Manager. He explained the dangers of a Mayor having full control of the City and supported the Police Department reporting to the City Manager. He noted that having the City Manager in charge of the day-to-day operations of the City would allow for the Mayor to concentrate efforts on ensuring the City is recognized by, and participates in, the various forms of government, Boards, Committees, and Commissions throughout the State to ensure that the City receives its “fair share” of emergency services and legislative funding. Mr. Hare indicated that when the Mayor’s position was changed to full-time, it was to provide the necessary time to lobby the legislators, promote economic development, public relations, etc. and not to spend time in City Hall. Noting that the Committee had held several discussions regarding this matter, Council President Bonar felt that it should now be presented to City Council for resolution. Regarding the costs associated with a strong mayor, Mr. Sudler felt that an increase in that Mayor’s salary would be less than that of an Assistant City Manager and that the Mayor could then assist the City Manager. Mr. Slavin noted the receipt of an e-mail, dated December 8, 2014, from the City Clerk’s Office regarding comments submitted by Ms. Rose Bryan of 43 Pine Street, as follows: “Ms. Bryan stated that she has lived in Dover for 48 years and is very much in favor of a full-time mayor, based on the size of the City of Dover. Ms. Bryan will not be attending the [meeting] tonight and does not have access to email. She asked the Clerk's Office to convey her message to Committee members.” Ms. Sara Herbert, 223 N. Bradford Street, stated that she was requested to submit correspondence from Ms. Yvonne Hall, Realtor with Keller Williams Realty Central DE. Ms. Herbert also advised members of her own support for a full-time Mayor,

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF FEBRUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 22 noting that Dover is a growing City and serves as the capital of the State of Delaware. She indicated that free parking is not available in the downtown areas in many cities in Delaware, and although it is beneficial in Dover, she felt this was an indication that there are not be as many visitors to the area as may be desired. Ms. Herbert felt that the Mayor’s job is to be the “face of the City” and bring benefits that would make the City stronger and better. She stated that, in addition to herself and Ms. Hall, her husband also felt that a full-time Mayor would be beneficial to the City of Dover. Mr. Reuben Salters (former member of City Council), 109 Bertrand Drive, relayed his support for a full-time Mayor. He reminded members of a situation that occurred years ago in the City of Dover, when there was a very strong voice in the community supporting a full-time Mayor. Mr. Salters felt that when the Mayor’s position became full-time, it benefitted the City. Although members of City Council, as well as City staff, represent the City, Mr. Salters noted that the Mayor represents all the people and aspects of the City and has a unique function in this regard. He indicated the importance of the separation of power among the branches of government in the City and felt confident that, with the urging of the citizens and influence of City Council, the Mayor will remain focused on his duties, serving full-time for the best interest of the City. Police Chief Bernat expressed his feeling that an elected official should oversee the Police Department and that individual should be the Mayor. It was his opinion that if the City Manager were placed in charge of the Police Department, there would be more of a financial interest versus public safety. Mr. Edward Thomas Christian, Jr., 9 Pennwood Drive, indicated his recollection that when Mr. Hutchison was elected to serve as Mayor and a full-time salary was provided, since there was no “clear” job description for the position, City Council developed a job description, listing duties and responsibilities that would compensate for the salary offered for serving as the Mayor. At that time, he stated, Mayor Hutchison was given the responsibility of overseeing the Police Department since he had previously served as Police Chief and this responsibility had continued since that time. It was Mr. Christian’s opinion that there was a conflict between the Mayor and the City Manager as to who would be responsible for the various departments of the City of Dover. He noted that often people get “stuck” with customs, habits, and traditions and find it difficult to make hard decisions, explaining that one’s comfort zone dictates his decisions. Mr. Christian stated that the general public does not have the knowledge or sophistication, which he defined as “unconscious ignorance,” to decide what is best for the City, explaining that it is the responsibility of City Council and the City Manager to determine what is best for the City of Dover. Referring to the comparison of municipalities, he stated that what may work for eight (8) million people may not work for the City of Dover. In response to Mr. Christian’s comments regarding the Mayor becoming responsible for the Police Department, Mayor Christiansen advised members that in 1929, when the City of Dover revised its Charter from the Town of Dover to the City of Dover,

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF FEBRUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 23 the Chief of Police was assigned to the Mayor. He noted that the Charter also requires the Mayor to be responsible for the Police Department, as conservator of the peace, and for the public safety of the citizens. Mr. Hutchison stated his strong opinion that the Mayor should continue to serve as the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) for the City of Dover, explaining that the City Manager is the Chief Operating Officer who reports to the Mayor and Council. Mr. Anderson noted that this issue involves personnel matters and questioned if an executive session could be held to allow for further discussion. Responding, Deputy City Solicitor Pepper stated his opinion that the discussion would not qualify for an executive session. Responding to Mr. Anderson, Mr. Koenig stated that three (3) years ago, the Parks and Recreation Director had retired and, rather than filling that position, the Parks and Recreation Department was assigned to the Planning Department to provide managerial oversight. Mr. Koenig stated that there are approximately 15-17 positions, including temporary employees, in that Department. In addition, he stated that the Central Services Manager, who was in charge of purchasing, warehouse, and fleet maintenance, had retired. Rather than filling that position, fleet maintenance was transferred to the Public Works Department and purchasing and warehouse maintenance were transferred to the Finance Department. In response to Mr. Anderson regarding an Assistant City Manager, Mr. Koenig stated that there had been no discussion regarding the possibility of removing responsibilities from Department Heads. He stated that the main issues facing the City Manager were budget and strategic plan development, the development of a facilities plan to enhance current facilities, and labor negotiations. In addition, Mr. Koenig stated that the Controller/Treasurer did not wish to be the point of contact for budget development; therefore, this responsibility would be re-assumed by the City Manager’s Office. Mayor Christiansen stated his recollection, as a member of City Council at the time, that the Planning Director and Finance Director were transferred from the City Manager to City Council in the 1980s due to a conflict between the then Planning Director and Fire Marshal, who was being given alternative orders. As a result, Council deemed it necessary to move the Fire Marshal and Planning Director to report directly to City Council. Likewise, the Finance Director/Treasurer position was moved from under the City Manager for misreporting numbers and due to coercion to report false information to City Council. Mr. Hare moved to recommend that this matter be referred to City Council without a recommendation, with the stipulation that they be provided all information regarding Options A, B, and C (Mr. Anderson’s amendment to Option A). The motion was seconded by Mr. Shevock.

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF FEBRUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 24 Mr. Anderson requested that Option C also include the removal of the Deputy Police Chief from appointment by the Mayor, feeling that the Police Chief should make that selection. Mr. Slavin suggested that Mr. Anderson work with the City Clerk in the development of Option C to be presented to City Council for their review and consideration. The Committee referred this matter to City Council without a recommendation, with the stipulation that they be provided all information regarding Options A, B, and C. During their Regular meeting of January 12, 2015, Council deferred action on this item. During the Regular Meeting of City Council on February 9, 2015, Mr. Slavin stated that this item had been discussed by the Legislative, Finance, and Administration Committee numerous times over the past six (6) months. He felt that nothing could be done with the City’s form of government without first looking at the 1988 Consent Decree, which governs how the City’s government is structured. Mr. Slavin indicated that discussions had been held with members of the State branch of the NAACP and the Central Delaware NAACP. It was his belief that the last action taken indicated that the Council President was to initiate meetings to open a dialog to see if it was time to review the Consent Decree as Council prepared to possibly change the form of government. Mr. Slavin felt it was clear that no action could be taken unilaterally as a Council without first addressing the Consent Decree. Mr. Bonar stated that a meeting had been requested to discuss this matter, and it had been discussed with Mr. William Pepper, Deputy City Solicitor. He indicated that a formal meeting with the Central Delaware branch of the NAACP would be happening. Mr. Anderson expressed disagreement, noting that a legal opinion from Mr. Pepper, as well as the reading of the Consent Decree, indicated that Options A, B, and C were all allowed within the Consent Decree. The Consent Decree only applied if it were to be attempted to put the Mayor “back running Council,” change the number of Council people, or get rid of the Council President position. Mr. Anderson felt that the Decree did not apply to “who reports to whom.” It was his belief that Council still had wide latitude, and Options A, B, and C were all vetted and passed legal muster. Mr. Anderson did not feel that reopening the Consent Decree was necessary and stated that this was confirmed by legal counsel in the minutes of the Regular City Council meeting held on December 8, 2014. Mr. Hare felt that this matter needed to be discussed; however, he did not believe that this was the night to discuss it since it would be longer than a five (5) or 10-minute conversation. He recommended that this discussion occur in the future, perhaps in a workshop, in a setting where there are not time constraints due to other items. Referring to Mr. Anderson’s comments, Mr. Slavin stated that, while he might not agree with the specifics of Mr. Anderson’s interpretation, Options A, B, and C were only three (3) options that were brought forward and there may be more. He stated that although Council may not be required to have a conversation about the Consent Decree with the parties to the Decree, he felt it would be in the best interest of the City to begin there. Mr. Slavin felt this was the diplomatic and respectful thing to do and encouraged Council to take that forward.

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF FEBRUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 25 Mr. Hutchison expressed his opinion that this matter should be discussed and “the sooner the better.” He suggested a series of discussions regarding the desired form of government. Mr. Hare stated that a discussion of the Consent Decree could occur at the same time as the discussion regarding the form of government and that the City’s legal counsel should be present. He felt this should be accomplished in one (1) big meeting, rather than spreading it out, as suggested by Mr. Hutchison. Mr. Slavin moved to table this matter, seconded by Mr. Dixon and unanimously carried. Mr. Slavin moved to accept the Legislative, Finance, and Administration Committee report of December 8, 2014, seconded by Mr. Hutchison and unanimously carried. PARKS, RECREATION, AND COMMUNITY ENHANCEMENT COMMITTEE REPORT - JANUARY 12, 2015 The Parks, Recreation, and Community Enhancement Committee met on January 12, 2015 with Chairman Dixon presiding. Mallard Pond Park Concept Plan Mrs. Ann Marie Townshend, Director of Planning and Community Development, advised members that Mallard Pond Park is a six (6) acre, undeveloped park surrounded by Mallard Pond Development, Brandywine Court Condominiums, Fox Hall West Addition, and Heatherfield East. Mrs. Townshend stated that staff identified Mallard Pond Park as a location for new playground equipment for FY 2015 and funds were budgeted for this purpose. She explained that the City’s bicycle and pedestrian plans, which are currently under development by the Dover/Kent County Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO), identify pathway connections through Mallard Pond Park which would connect Fox Hall West Addition and Mallard Pond to Marsh Creek Lane and ultimately Route 8. Mrs. Townshend indicated that this would become a significant pathway connection, as it would provide a safe bicycle and pedestrian route from these neighborhoods to the new Dover High School. Mrs. Townshend advised members that the Parks and Recreation Department hosted a community meeting at Mallard Pond Park on July 29, 2014 and invited property owners of the surrounding neighborhoods. She explained that, with the feedback received at this community meeting, the pathway and playground were better placed on the property to avoid potential conflicts with the neighbors. Mrs. Townshend stated that residents of Brandywine Court Condominiums indicated that people park in the private parking areas on Par Haven Drive to utilize the park and residents were concerned that parking conflicts would increase with increased activity at the park. Based on this feedback, Mrs. Townshend noted that the concept plan that was developed shows a small parking area off Marsh Creek Lane. Mrs. Townshend advised members that the concept plan would phase the improvements based on availability of funds. She said the first phase, and likely the only phase within the current fiscal year, would be the construction of a playground.

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF FEBRUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 26 The second phase would be the construction of the pathway between Mallard Pond and Marsh Creek Lane. Mrs. Townshend explained that staff would work with the Delaware Department of Transportation (DelDOT) and the Dover/Kent County MPO to seek funding for the pathway. The pathway segment which will connect to Fox Hall West Addition would be a future phase, as concurrence from the Fox Hall West Addition and a stream crossing would be required to complete this. Mrs. Townshend indicated that the parking area would be a phase in a future Capital Improvement Program (CIP) for the park. Mrs. Townshend stated that if the concept plan were approved, the playground contract would be presented to City Council for approval in accordance with the purchasing policy. She explained that the FY 2015 CIP anticipates $33,000 in grant funding to support the playground installation and staff was in the process of applying for these funds. Staff recommended approval of the improvements identified on the concept plan, noting that all improvements beyond the installation of playground equipment would be subject to funding availability and approval of associated expenditures by City Council. Responding to Mr. Hutchison, Mrs. Townshend indicated that the size of the property is approximately six (6) acres and, while she was unsure of the number of youth in the target area, she explained that four (4) or five (5) families with children attended the workshop, as well as a family from Westfield. Mrs. Townshend stated that the majority of the people with children came from Mallard Pond. In response to Mr. Dixon’s inquiry regarding the needs of this park versus those of other parks in the City, Mrs. Townshend explained that the City’s Recreational Needs Assessment was a separate project. She informed members that money was allocated in the Capital Plan for playground improvements at this particular park; however, the idea was to look at playgrounds, as well as other features, so that a comprehensive improvement could be accomplished instead of piece by piece. Responding to Mr. Caldwell regarding the parking concerns that were raised by residents, Mrs. Townshend stated that the concern would be primarily resolved by adding a small parking area off Marsh Creek Lane, noting that the bulk of those utilizing the park would be people who walk there from adjacent neighborhoods. The Committee recommended approval of the improvements identified on the concept plan, noting that all improvements beyond the installation of playground equipment would be subject to funding availability and approval of associated expenditures by City Council. By consent agenda, Mr. Hare moved for approval of the Committee's recommendation, seconded by Mr. Dixon and carried by a unanimous roll call vote (Williams absent).

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF FEBRUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 27 Update on Recreation Needs Assessment - Presentation and Discussion of Survey Data Mrs. Ann Marie Townshend, Director of Planning and Community Development, reviewed the Recreation Needs Assessment Update - Survey Highlights. Mrs. Townshend advised members that the Recreation Needs Assessment yielded responses from 506 people, most of whom responded online. She explained that, based on the data received, 52% of respondents indicated they were City residents who noted the neighborhoods they lived in to avoid the misunderstanding of those who think they live inside City limits but actually do not. Of the remaining respondents, 28% were non-city residents and 20% did not disclose their residency. Mrs. Townshend reviewed those priorities that were ranked the highest, reflecting that 25% or more of the respondents wanted to see these improvements. She noted that although an indoor recreational facility for Dover Park achieved the interest of slightly more than 25% of respondents, indoor restroom facilities and benches at Dover Park and Silver Lake Park ranked higher. Overall, she stated that people supported the idea that the parks and the programs offered by the City should be funded by a mix of fees, grants, and taxes, noting specifically that 74% believed that program fees were the way to fund the programs. Mrs. Townshend said that the comments on the survey indicated people thought there should be more fundraising and business sponsorships, noting that, currently, the only program that seeks business sponsorship is Concerts on the Green. Mrs. Townshend pointed out that there was significant support for residents to pay a lower fee than non-residents. She noted that 67% of those who responded to that particular question believed that City residents should pay a lower fee. Mrs. Townshend stated that this provision was not currently in place and that this was something to consider in the future as recommendations are developed from the needs assessment. She advised members that the comment portion of the survey suggested that the City could do a better job informing the public about programs provided and, in response, the City will continue to distribute flyers in schools, provide Public Service Announcements (PSA’s) and, based on recommendations made in the comment section, could consider doing more paid advertisements. Mrs. Townshend indicated that this would require increasing revenue through sponsorships and business contributions. Mrs. Townshend stated that another suggestion submitted through the comments section of the survey was for a pickleball field, noting that, although the numbers were not overwhelming in favor of this, the comment field reflected strong interest to include permanent markings, particularly from the senior citizen community. She noted she was not very familiar with pickleball but believes it is similar to tennis and very popular right now, especially among seniors. In addition to pickleball, another topic in the comments section was a dog park, which would not be particularly desirable from the City’s perspective for several reasons, including the time and cost

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF FEBRUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 28 necessary to maintain the turf. However, she noted that there was a very vocal part of the population that would like to have a place to take their dogs to run and socialize with other dogs and this was something to consider. Summarizing, Mrs. Townshend explained that this information was drawn from the preliminary data. Upon a more thorough review, it was her hope to produce more concrete recommendations within the next month. Responding to Mr. Anderson regarding indoor bathrooms, Mrs. Townshend explained that Silver Lake is probably the most costly location because the City does not have water run there. She suggested that this may be a two (2) year Capital Improvement Project (CIP), which would allow project design work in the first year with implementation the next year. Mrs. Townshend said the City would seek grant funding under the Delaware Land and Water Trust Fund, which could reimburse up to 50% of the cost. She also stated that, based on the responses received, a skate park would be best located at Schutte Park or Dover Park and a splash pad seemed to be best suited for Silver Lake or Dover Parks. In response to Mr. Anderson’s concerns regarding the lack of skateboarding opportunities, Mrs. Townshend advised members that the information received is still preliminary. She recommended, as the Capital Plan is developed, that a skate park be considered in the next couple of years at Dover Park, ensuring that the best location is selected. Mrs. Townshend suggested planning funding next year for a skate park and restrooms so that things are not put in places that preclude other uses in the future, such as a building. She also noted the importance in the Dover Park planning process to address concerns regarding landscaping that can be maintained in a way that is natural but not too concealing. Mrs. Townshend indicated that this had been a big challenge at Dover Park, noting that people do not feel safe because it is so heavily vegetated. Mrs. Townshend stated that money had already been set aside for Dover Park and expressed her opinion that lighting and safety were important components of the planning process. Mr. Hutchison suggested obtaining not only a comprehensive survey of what the City is doing but also reaching out to Kent County, the YMCA, the Boys and Girls Club, schools, etc., to get a total overview of the recreational needs. Responding, Mrs. Townshend advised that the Parks and Recreation Department had regularly scheduled meetings with the YMCA, Senior Olympics, Special Olympics, Delaware State University, and the Capital School District. Although churches had not been as involved as she would like, Mrs. Townshend shared that she had recently had discussions with Mr. Dixon and Mr. Anderson regarding the new outreach center being built at the Solid Rock Baptist Church and the consensus was that the center would provide a great opportunity for partnerships and programming at that location. After reaching out to Pastor William Grimes, Mrs. Townshend advised members that the hope was to set up a meeting and talk about the type of programming the City could provide such as yoga, Zumba for seniors (Zumba Gold), babysitting training, first aid training, etc., after ensuring the programs meet the church’s objectives.

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF FEBRUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 29 Mr. Dixon expressed his continued concern for the children on the east side of town, referencing Dover Park and the youth in the community. Mrs. Townshend indicated that Dover Park is a priority that will be addressed with the first detailed park plan for immediate improvements, such as a skate park, indoor restrooms, and plans to reserve space for a potential building, if it is determined that it is needed. She stated that the intent was to “beef up” capital planning in that area in the upcoming year. Responding to Mr. Anderson, Mrs. Townshend stated that she was not aware of any major donations. In response to Mrs. Horsey, Mrs. Townshend indicated that heating would be necessary in any indoor bathrooms to protect the pipes. Mr. Dixon suggested reviewing other parks outside of Delaware to see what kind of bathrooms they have and what would work best for parks in the City of Dover. By consent agenda, Mr. Hare moved for acceptance of the Parks, Recreation, and Community Enhancement Committee Report, seconded by Mr. Dixon and carried by a unanimous roll call vote (Williams absent). UTILITY COMMITTEE REPORT - JANUARY 12, 2015 The Utility Committee met on January 12, 2015 with Councilman Perza presiding in the absence of Chairwoman Williams (arrived at 5:24 p.m.). Dedication of Rights-of-Way and Public Infrastructure - Eden Hill Phase I Mr. Scott Koenig, City Manager, reminded members that the original developer for the Eden Hill Subdivision went bankrupt and, although there was a letter of credit for this subdivision, the Pettinaro Development Corporation purchased the balance of the Subdivision as well as the obligation to finish the infrastructure. Mr. Koenig advised members that Pettinaro Construction Company, Inc., the responsible party for completing the public infrastructure within the Eden Hill Phase I development, had requested that all public infrastructure improvements be dedicated to the City of Dover for permanent ownership and maintenance. Referring to the list of public improvements associated with Eden Hill Phase I as well as a map depicting the general location and configuration of the subject rights-of-way, Mr. Koenig informed members that the total construction value of the public improvements was $1,734,706, including roads, water lines, sewer lines, and storm sewer lines. Mr. Koenig indicated that Pettinaro Construction Company had completed construction of the improvements in accordance with City standards and specifications. After construction was completed, City staff inspected the public improvements and developed a list of repairs to be made to meet the City of Dover Standards and Specifications for Public Works Construction. All work required by the Public Works Director had been completed and members were advised that a one

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF FEBRUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 30 (1) year Maintenance Agreement and a Release of Liabilities would be submitted as part of the dedication process. Required as-built drawings of the infrastructure as well as videos of the sanitary sewer mains had been provided to staff. Staff recommended acceptance of the rights-of-way and public infrastructure for Phase I of the Eden Hill Subdivision with dedication to include all of the referenced public improvements. Responding to Mr. Slavin, Mr. Koenig confirmed that construction was completed in accordance with City standards and specifications, all of the punch list items had been completed, the required paperwork had been submitted, and Eden Hill Phase I was ready for dedication. Mr. Perza inquired whether the City’s liability would be minimized as a result of the dedication. In response, Mr. Koenig stated that the City’s liability would be minimized. He noted that the City would have a one (1) year maintenance bond on the improvements, and if something were to happen in the first year, the developer would be required to complete the repair or the City could call the bond. Mr. Koenig stated that the developer had done a good job in bringing this infrastructure to the dedication process. Responding to Mr. Hutchison, Mr. Koenig explained that the work had been completed, as depicted in red on the Eden Hill Residential Phase I map. Mr. Koenig indicated that the Committee’s recommendation would be considered by City Council during their Regular Meeting on January 26, 2015, and if Council approves the dedication, the City would be responsible for all of the maintenance as of January 26, 2015. The Committee recommended acceptance of the dedication of rights-of-way and public infrastructure for Phase I of the Eden Hill Subdivision to include all of the referenced public improvements, as recommended by staff. By consent agenda, Mr. Hare moved for approval of the Committee's recommendation, seconded by Mr. Dixon and carried by a unanimous roll call vote (Williams absent). TEA/NAES Reports (September, October, and November) The TEA/NAES Monthly Reports for September, October, and November 2014 were provided to members to enable them to monitor electric sales and revenues received, which will provide a better understanding of any fluctuations that occur and allow the opportunity to make improvements if deemed necessary. Referring to Page 12 of the November 2014 report, Mr. Scott Koenig, City Manager, reviewed the year-to-date expenses through the end of November and noted that Gross Load was slightly under budget; however, the Total - Utilities Cost was approximately $1.98M under budget. He reminded members that this budget had been tracking fairly well throughout the year and was consistently under budget.

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF FEBRUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 31 Mr. Koenig stated that the City did make some money in generation earlier in the year, and the City’s hedges had been performing as expected. Mr. Koenig noted that TEA had added Source and Formula columns to the report to better explain the bill and how it tracks back to the City’s PJM bill. The Committee recommended acceptance of the TEA/NAES Monthly Reports for September, October, and November 2014. By consent agenda, Mr. Hare moved for approval of the Committee's recommendation, seconded by Mr. Dixon and carried by a unanimous roll call vote (Mrs. Williams absent). Updates Green Energy Funding and Programming Members reviewed details regarding Green Energy Funding and Programming, as of December 10, 2014. Mr. Scott Koenig, City Manager, informed members that there was still a moratorium on photovoltaic submissions because of the recommendation from the Delaware Municipal Electric Corporation (DEMEC) that there were some changes to the legislation in progress, and the City did not want to be overwhelmed with applications, considering funding was rather limited at this time. Mr. Koenig stated that a majority of the funding that the City was currently receiving for green energy was going to pay the debt service associated with the improvements that were completed several years ago at the Dover Public Library. He indicated that the balance of the funds was being distributed in accordance with the summary as of December 10, 2014. Mr. Koenig stated that once the City gets beyond the debt service payment, funding would be available for additional green energy projects. National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Municipal Separate Storm Sewer Systems (MS4) Permit Mr. Scott Koenig, City Manager, informed members that staff had submitted documentation to the State of Delaware a few months ago but had not yet received a response. He stated that the City was in the process of recruiting for the Environmental Scientist position that will serve as the permit point of contact in the future, and that staff would be preparing documentation to substantiate the activities that the City had done over the past year to support the permit. Mr. Koenig explained that the Engineering and Planning Divisions of the Public Works Department were working on several storm water activities that would ultimately relate to the MS4 Permit. He noted that in December 2014, the City received a grant from the State of Delaware, as identified in the budget, to determine the feasibility of a potential storm water utility, and staff was beginning work on that document. Additionally, the City had received grant funding related to the replacement of the storm sewer system from the river up through the hospital area. Mr. Koenig stated that this item would be discussed in greater detail as Council and staff move through the budgeting process for future years, noting that, over time, a majority of the Street Division operations and budget would focus on addressing concerns and issues related to the MS4 Permit.

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF FEBRUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 32 Mrs. Williams questioned if the replacement of the storm sewer system in this area would impact the chronic problems around Water Street. Responding, Mr. Koenig explained that the expectation for the project at old PW2 and Water Street, was that once the City builds an infrastructure improvement it will relieve problems in the area, to the extent that Bayhealth Medical Center would be able to redevelop its property in the future and the City would not have flooding inhibiting the transportation network of Governors Avenue and Water Street. He stated that the City was trying to upgrade the piping all the way to the river, or potentially create more of an open channel flow to the river at some point. However, Mr. Koenig explained that there are environmental issues to deal with, including old infrastructure that would need to be removed at PW2; crossing State Street, which is an expensive crossing; and crossing the hospital property. He indicated that this was a multimillion dollar project and estimated that it could cost between $7M - $15M, depending on the environmental requirements revealed in the initial study. Mr. Koenig stated that this was a major storm water improvement; however, it was absolutely necessary to facilitate the long-term expansion of Bayhealth Medical Center. Responding to Mrs. Williams regarding the volume of storm water at this location, Mr. Koenig explained that it is significant because it includes the entire Tar Ditch drainage basin which encompasses a substantial portion of the downtown area, extends westward past the Westside Car Wash, and captures part of Eden Hill. Although it is a complicated fix and would be rather expensive, Mr. Koenig stated that it was necessary. Garrison Oak Technical Park Project Updates Mr. Scott Koenig, City Manager, provided the following updates: City Infrastructure Mr. Koenig reminded members that the City had been working for many months at the Garrison Oak Technical Park (GOTP) on a number of different projects, noting that the City currently had three (3) contractors underway. He stated that George & Lynch, Inc. was in the final stages of completing the Garrison Oak pumping station. Mr. Koenig explained that the electric system was run adjacent to the station last week and staff was hopeful that it would be hooked up by the end of the current week, if the weather permits. He stated that this water would be used to test the piping inside of the Calpine plant, and the City was trying to receive flow from the initial testing operations of Calpine in the next week to 10 days. Mr. Koenig clarified that this would not be actual process water yet, but informed members that the Garrison Energy Center facility was moving quickly to completion, noting that the City was expecting to receive wastewater flow in the next few weeks. Mr. Koenig stated that George & Lynch, Inc. was also working on the gravity sewer connection to the old pump station on White Oak Road, which would be abandoned in the near future.

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF FEBRUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 33 Mr. Koenig informed members that A-Del Construction Company had just received the tie-in permits for each of the entrances and the water system, so they could now tie in the new water infrastructure into White Oak Road. Additionally, A-Del Construction Company had poured the curbline on the east side of GOTP and were working on building the east entrance. On the west side, A-Del Construction Company completed the box culvert across the White Oak Tax Ditch and, even though they are running a little behind schedule on this project, they were working to get traffic moved over to the east side to finish the construction improvements associated with the Garrison Energy Center. Mr. Koenig stated that, when they receive the pole delivery in the next four (4) to six (6) weeks, the Electric Department would be working on the realignment of some of the 69kV system to facilitate entering into GOTP. Mr. Koenig informed members that the one (1) piece of infrastructure currently lagging was the 1.5M gallon water tower. He explained that the foundations were in but there was a 60-day waiting period for the foundations to set before they could be loaded. Mr. Koenig estimated that the contractor would be remobilizing at the beginning of February to start the upward elevation of the stack. Although this project was running slightly behind schedule, Mr. Koenig reminded members that the tower would offer a buffer in the summer months and that the tower was a necessary component to accommodate the full build out of GOTP, which includes the second unit of Calpine. Calpine Energy Center Referring to private construction, Mr. Koenig stated that both Uzin Utz and the Calpine Energy Center are substantially moving through construction. He reminded members that the Calpine Energy Center intended to go into commercial operations no later than June 2015; however, he explained that as soon as Calpine begins testing the facility, running water, generating test power, etc., and passes all of their protocols for testing, they will be commercially available for operation. Mr. Koenig stated that it was the hope of Calpine and the City, from the revenue generation standpoint, that Calpine will be able to go into commercial operations ahead of June 2015. Dover Sun Park Mr. Scott Koenig, City Manager, reviewed a spreadsheet entitled “City of Dover Electric Revenue Fund - FY 15 - White Oak Solar Park Incremental Cost, noting that the fiscal year to date incremental energy cost was $365,091. Mr. Koenig explained that this cost indicated that the City paid a premium of an additional $365,091 to help meet the goals of the City’s regional portfolio standards for renewable energy and, currently, the Sun Park represents approximately 3% of the City’s total load. He stated that at its highest performance during the summer, the Solar Park runs a little over 10 megawatts (MW) per day, and these are typically the days that the City needs the most power; therefore, the City’s total power demand from the grid has gone

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF FEBRUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 34 down by roughly 10MW. Although the City pays a little extra for the Solar Park, Mr. Koenig stated that it not only helps the City meet renewable energy requirements but also provides 10MW that the City does not have to buy at the summer peak. Responding to Mrs. Williams, Mr. Koenig clarified that Kvaerner North American Construction, which has been acquired by Matrix Service Company, is the engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) contractor for Calpine, and Chicago Bridge & Iron Company (CB&I) is the City’s contractor for the 1.5M gallon water tower. He confirmed that these are two (2) separate contracts. Mr. Hutchison questioned whether Mr. Kirk Betts, the City’s Utility Attorney, and Calpine were still working together. Responding, Mr. Koenig informed members that Mr. Betts was still working on some options that would provide the City additional negotiating leverage because this is a market based negotiation. Mr. Koenig stated that he did not have a timetable available at this time. By consent agenda, Mr. Hare moved for acceptance of the Utility Committee Report, seconded by Mr. Dixon and carried by a unanimous roll call vote (Mrs. Williams absent).

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF FEBRUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 35 By consent agenda, Mr. Hare moved for acceptance of the Legislative, Finance, and Administration Committee Report of January 12, 2015, seconded by Mr. Dixon and carried by a unanimous roll call vote (Mrs. Williams absent). LEGISLATIVE, FINANCE, AND ADMINISTRATION COMMITTEE REPORT - FEBRUARY 9, 2015 The Legislative, Finance, and Administration Committee met on February 9, 2015 with Chairman Slavin presiding. Except for the following time sensitive issues, the Legislative, Finance, and Administration Committee Report from February 9, 2015 will be presented to Council during their Regular Meeting of February 23, 2015 for Council's review and consideration. Proposed Ordinance #2015-03 Amending Chapter 102 - Taxation, Article III - Realty Transfer Tax, Section 102-71 - Definitions; Article IV - Abatement of Real Estate Taxes, Section 102-113 - Qualifications; and Article V - Tax Credits for Historic Properties, Section 102-152 - Application Requirements and Section 102-153 - Application Review and Approval Mrs. Ann Marie Townshend, Director of Planning and Community Development, advised members that proposed Ordinance #2015-03 would implement incentives that the City committed to through its Downtown Development District Application. She explained that the ordinance was related to the taxation section of the code and had three (3) components, as follows: 1) The City currently offers a transfer tax waiver for first-time homebuyers City-wide. Under the proposed ordinance, those who sell properties located in the area between Mary and Loockerman Streets and between Governors Avenue and West Street would also receive this transfer tax waiver if the properties are sold to someone who would be occupying the home as an owner. Mrs. Townshend indicated that the boundary included in the ordinance had been changed to coincide with the Downtown Development District boundary. 2) The City currently offers a tax waiver for owner-occupied houses located in the area between Mary and Loockerman Streets and between Governors Avenue and West Street, and this was expanded in the proposed ordinance to include the entire Downtown Development District. The ordinance would allow for a phase-in of taxes over five (5) years for an owner-occupied home. For the first year, no property taxes would be paid, for the second year 25% of the property taxes would be required, for the third year 50%, for the fourth year 75%, and in the fifth year the owner would begin paying the full tax. An owner who moves out of the district within this five (5) year period would be required to pay taxes back.

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF FEBRUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 36 Mrs. Townshend stated that this program had been “on the books” and staff had aligned it with the Downtown Development District boundaries. 3) The City currently offers tax credits for renovation of historic properties based on the value of the work done to the exterior of the property, and review of tax credits by the Historic District Commission (HDC) is required. The proposed ordinance would allow for administrative approval of tax credits; however, if the tax credit relates to a project that would have to go to the HDC, the Commission would also be able to comment. This would allow for administrative approval of tax credits for projects such as the painting of a Victorian home, which would not normally come before the HDC. Mrs. Townshend explained that this would simplify and expedite the review process. Responding to Mr. Shevock as to whether a time frame would be associated with the high priority targeted area, Mrs. Townshend stated that no such time frame was included in the ordinance; however, the State’s Downtown Development District designation is a 10-year designation. If the high-targeted area were to shift within this 10-year time frame, it would be necessary to make a change in only one (1) location in the Dover Code, Appendix C - Downtown Redevelopment. The Committee recommended adoption of Proposed Ordinance #2015-03, as recommended by staff, seconded by Mr. Shevock and unanimously carried. During the Regular Meeting of City Council on February 9, 2015, Mrs. Ann Marie Townshend, Director of Planning and Community Development, explained that the proposed ordinance would adopt the incentives that the City committed to in the Downtown Development District. Ordinance #2015-03 would provide amendments to Chapter 102, Taxation, Article III and would amend the boundary for certain homeownership incentives to a larger boundary that coincides with the Downtown Development District. It would also change the tax credits for historic properties so that they can be administratively approved and do not have to go to the Historic District Commission. Mr. Hare moved for approval of the Committee's recommendation, seconded by Mr. Dixon and unanimously carried. (The First Reading of the ordinance will take place during the latter part of the meeting.) Proposed Ordinance #2015-04 Amending Appendix C - Downtown Redevelopment Mrs. Ann Marie Townshend, Director of Planning and Community Development, stated that Proposed Ordinance #2015-04 would establish a high priority target area in the downtown area. She explained that the code currently has a defined target area for downtown redevelopment. Feedback received from members of Council

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF FEBRUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 37 regarding the City’s Downtown Development District Application indicated that Council did not want staff to reduce the area in which incentives were offered; however, the State wanted the City to have more incentives in the Development District than were available elsewhere in the City. Mrs. Townshend indicated that staff created a high priority target area and the Downtown Development District map was reflected in the language of the Proposed Ordinance. She explained the additional provisions in proposed Ordinance #2015-04, as follows: 1) The impact fee waiver currently applicable only to multi-story, mixed-use construction would no longer have to be a multi-story mixed use within the target. In this way, if a restaurant with many fixtures was opened, an impact fee waiver could be applied for a single-story building. In addition, if someone were to build five (5) houses on what was previously four (4) lots, they would receive credit for impact fees for prior structures but would receive a waiver for the fifth house. 2) A three (3) year waiver of the business license fee would be offered for new businesses and businesses that relocate to the Downtown Development District. 3) A rebate of the buyer’s portion of the transfer tax would be offered within the high priority area for properties transferred after March 1, 2015 and receiving a certificate of occupancy within five (5) years of transfer. Mrs. Townshend indicated that this could apply to very large projects, noting that there had been discussion for many years about redeveloping the former Acme site on Governors Avenue. If a developer were to purchase this site and build a new building, they could receive a rebate of the buyer’s portion of the transfer tax when a certificate of occupancy is obtained. 4) Mrs. Townshend explained that this section of the Code currently requires applicants to commit to giving 10% of the value of that incentive to the Downtown Dover Partnership (DDP) in order to qualify for City incentives. After discussion with Mr. Gregg Moore, President, DDP, Mrs. Townshend stated that it had been agreed that it would be better to provide a full incentive rather than to require the 10% payment. Mrs. Townshend advised members that in addition to the above changes included in the proposed ordinance, the DDP had also agreed to offer grants up to $5,000 for architectural services for new businesses in the Downtown Development District.

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF FEBRUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 38 Responding to Mr. Hare, Mrs. Townshend stated that the incentives would apply to businesses opening in the Downtown Development District. Those who want to open large businesses elsewhere in Dover would not receive these incentives; however, there are other incentives available. She explained that redevelopment in the downtown area is difficult and more expensive than other areas because of the age of the infrastructure and buildings and the tightness of the lots. For this reason, the downtown area needs more help. The Governor budgeted and the legislature approved money for property owners to improve their properties. In exchange for this, local governments participating in the program were asked to provide added incentives in the area. Mrs. Townshend reminded members that this was previously discussed both by the Legislative, Finance, and Administration Committee and Council when the application was brought through the process before submitting it to the State. She noted that opportunities to improve incentives elsewhere could be discussed; however, this particular program was geared to the downtown area. Mr. Hare expressed his feeling that the City should provide incentives on a case-by-case basis to those willing to develop projects outside the target area, such as the former K-Mart building. Responding to Mr. Sudler regarding the location of the designated area, Mrs. Townshend explained that the rough boundaries of the Downtown Development District are as follows: the northeast boundary begins at the Mary Street/North Governors Avenue intersection, extending south down Governors Avenue to Fulton Street and east to State Street, extending south down State Street to Water Street, running west on Water Street and extending slightly south to bring in the Dover Transit Center, extending north along the railroad tracks, jutting west to include the eastern side of Lincoln Park, then continuing northward along the railroad tracks back to Mary Street. Mayor Christiansen commended Mrs. Townshend and Mr. Koenig for their efforts in this regard. He felt this tool would offer retail, mercantile, and residential establishments the opportunity to revitalize downtown. He stated that a lot of resources and attention would be focused in this area and it was hoped that these incentives and grants would stabilize the neighborhood and make it thrive, to the benefit of the entire City. The Committee recommended adoption of proposed Ordinance #2015-04, as recommended by staff. During the Regular Meeting of City Council on February 9, 2015, Mrs. Ann Marie Townshend, Director of Planning and Community Development, explained that the proposed ordinance would adopt the incentives that the City committed to in the Downtown Development District. Proposed Ordinance #2015-04 defines in Code what is being called the high priority target area within the City’s existing target area for redevelopment, which is the Downtown Development District, and identifies new incentives for that area, namely a waiver of business license fees for new businesses

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF FEBRUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 39 in the District for a period of three (3) years, an expansion of impact fee waivers from only being allowed on multi-story, mixed use construction to any construction, and a rebate of the buyer’s portion of the real estate transfer tax for properties that transfer after March 1st if improvements are made and a certificate of occupancy is issued within five (5) years. It would also remove the requirement for a payment of 10% of the value of the benefits to the Downtown Dover Partnership, and allow for a straight waiver. Mr. Hare moved for approval of the Committee's recommendation, seconded by Mr. Dixon and unanimously carried. (The First Reading of the ordinance will take place during the latter part of the meeting.) By unanimous consent, Council accepted the Legislative, Finance, and Administration Committee Report of February 9, 2015 (Williams absent).

PROPOSED ORDINANCE #2015-01 AMENDING THE 2008 COMPREHENSIVE PLAN, AS AMENDED Mrs. Ann Marie Townshend, Director of Planning and Community Development, advised members that each year in December, staff accepts applications to amend the 2008 Comprehensive Plan. She stated that one (1) request was received from the property owner associated with the rezoning of property located at 801 North State Street and indicated that this would be a Land Development Plan Map Amendment. Mrs. Townshend informed members that there was also an amendment to the

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF FEBRUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 41 Growth and Annexation Plan chapter of the Comprehensive Plan that would remove the requirement that the Cost Revenue Analysis model be used for all annexations because, at this point, the model is very out of date and would be very costly to update. Since the ordinance is an amendment to the 2008 Comprehensive Plan, as amended, a public hearing is required.

Agenda • Introduction • The Revaluation Process • Results and Statistics •Q&A

City of Dover Project Staff • Melissa Baer – Regional manager for the Northeast. Melissa has over 20 years of mass appraisal and assessment experience. • Debra Christy – Sr. Project Supervisor. Debra has over 35 years of mass appraisal experience • Eric Hardy – Sr. Project Supervisor/Commercial Appraiser.

Why Do a Revaluation? • Equity - The market is constantly changing and every property is not affected equally. Fair market value is affected by a number of factors including property class (residential, commercial, industrial), property location, individual property desirability and market supply and demand. • The City of Dover Assessor's Office has a primary mission to maintain the property assessment system in a way that is equitable, fair and uniform to all citizens of the City of Dover and at the same time meet all constitutional and statutory requirements. • We are conducting a revaluation for the 2015 Grand List, which will be reflected in the tax bills for April 1, 2015.

Q: How was the value of properties determined? • Based upon the data on file for each property, along with an analysis of recent sales and rentals of similar properties in the neighborhood, Tyler utilized a computer assisted mass appraisal (CAMA) process to estimate the current market value. Values were reviewed by both Tyler and the Assessor.

Q: How is the quality of the new values measured? • The International Association of Assessing Officers (IAAO) has developed standards to measure the quality of revaluations. • Standards for level of assessment, amount of dispersion among the sales used, and measurements for equity between high value and low valued properties are all taken into account.

Standards for Quality All Classes Measure of Assessment Level .90 – 1.10 (value) Price Related Differential (PRD) .98 – 1.03 COD (By Class) Single Family • Newer/Homogeneous ≤ 10 • Older/Heterogeneous ≤ 15 • Rural/Seasonal ≤ 20 Income Properties • Larger/Urban ≤ 15 • Smaller/Rural ≤ 20 Vacant Land ≤ 20 Unsold Test .95 to 1.05 * Assessments reflect 70% of appraised value

NOTICE OF PROPERTY REVALUATION OFFICE OF THE ASSESSOR Dover, Delaware Date of issue: 02/13/15 Parcel identification ED05-077.09-04-53.00 TO: VON CROY RUDOLPH Property Class C1 C/O COLONIAL INVESTMENT Property Location 9 E LOOCKERMAN ST STE 202 100 W NORTH ST DOVER, DE 19901 TOTAL 2015 ASSESSED VALUE $54,600 In accordance with Dover City’s Charter, the City has completed a revaluation of all real property effective for the 2015 Tax Roll. Your new assessment is based on 100% of the current fair market value of your property, as of January 1, 2015. IMPORTANT – THIS IS NOT A TAX BILL. THE TAX RATE WILL CHANGE; THEREFORE, DO NOT MULTIPLY YOUR NEW ASSESSMENT BY THE CURRENT RATE. The 2015 assessments have been developed using recent valid market sales and economic data. The previous assessment was NOT a factor in determining the 2015 assessed value, and therefore cannot be considered as a basis for an appeal. EXEMPTIONS – Tax exemptions are NOT reflected in the above assessment. Any exemptions for which you are eligible WILL BE adjusted and applied to your next tax bill, provided proper application has been made. Senior Citizen Property Tax Reduction benefits DO NOT appear on the notice, but will be applied, if applicable, as in the past. INFORMAL REVIEW BOARD – Tyler Technologies, the revaluation firm that worked with the Assessor on the City’s 2015 revaluation project, will make appraisal personnel available for the purpose of reviewing property values with taxpayers. Reviews will be scheduled by appointment only. The appraisers will discuss market value. They will not be able to discuss tax rates or estimated tax bills. A change in value will be considered if the owner can demonstrate that the appraised value is in excess of market value. A request for review must be made by March 4, 2015. Appointments may be made with Tyler by calling the following phone number Monday through Friday between 9:00AM and 4:00PM. Patience is advised, as the phone lines might initially be busy; they will free up in time. When calling for an appointment, please have this letter before you, as it contains information necessary to track your property. 800-497-6026 Formal Appeal Process – If you are not satisfied with the results of the informal review with Tyler, you may appeal to the Dover Tax Assessor between April 1, 2015 and April 30, 2015. Applications for this appeal will be available in the Assessor’s Office on April 1, 2015.

SPECIAL DOVER HUMAN RELATIONS COMMISSION The Special Dover Human Relations Commission (DHRC) meeting was held on January 9, 2015 at 10:10 a.m. with Chairman Wilson presiding. Members present were Mr. Henderson, Ms. Hicks, Mr. McGiffin (departed at 11:04 a.m.), Mr. Ruane, Mr. Roach (arrived at 10:27 a.m.), and Ms. Smith (arrived at 10:16 a.m.). Mrs. Sadusky and Ms. Stewart were absent. Mr. Wilson requested a moment of silence for the men and women serving in the City of Dover Police Department as they start off the year 2015. AGENDA ADDITIONS/DELETIONS By unanimous consent, the agenda was approved as submitted. Discussion - City Meetings with Interdenominational Ministerial Alliance (IMA) of Dover and Vicinity, Inc. and IMA Committees (Mayor Christiansen) Chairman Wilson stated that, during a meeting held earlier in the morning with the DHRC Government Policy, Programs, and Practices (GPPP) Committee, Mayor Christiansen had provided information regarding the Interdenominational Ministerial Alliance (IMA). The Mayor had advised members that he was meeting with the IMA and desired to ensure that community concerns regarding jobs, housing, education, police issues and other matters were heard. Mr. Wilson stated that the DHRC was invited to attend IMA meetings and encouraged representatives to participate. He stated there would be more discussion regarding the differences between the roles of the DHRC and the IMA and its committees. Discussion - Implementation of the DHRC 2015-2018 Strategic Plan Committee Objectives Mr. Ruane stated his understanding that the goal was to coordinate between the various DHRC committees and determine if there was some overlap in terms of what is being proposed for them. Mr. Wilson stated his desire to make sure that the committees were making plans for the entire year and that everyone was on the same page in terms of getting things done. He requested each committee chair to provide an overview of the things they could initially begin or accomplish in regard to the DHRC 2015-2018 Strategic Plan. Mr. Ruane explained that, during the Government Practices, Policies, and Procedures (GPPP) Committee meeting held earlier in the day, the GPPP Committee, City Manager, Mayor, and Council President discussed the GPPP memorandum dated October 16, 2014, regarding the Preliminary Draft Work Plan for Completing Long-term Objective A-1 of the Strategic Plan 2015-2018. [Clerk’s Office Note: This memorandum was discussed during the DHRC meeting of October 28, 2014, as part of the GPPP Committee meeting report.] Mr. Ruane stated that the City Manager, Mayor, and Council President were advised that the DHRC hoped to perform an assessment, or organizational survey, to find out about the current state and climate of diversity and inclusion in the City of Dover so that they could make recommendations to management and Council regarding improvements for City programs. Mr. Ruane indicated that the City Manager, Mayor, and Council President had indicated that they looked forward to working with the DHRC to set up a senior leadership team within the City to conduct this survey and assessment. Noting that the Communications Committee had proposed to look at the City’s diversity training, Mr. Ruane stated that this would be included in the assessment and there would be an opportunity for feedback from the DHRC’s participants of those diversity training mini-sessions. He assured the

SPECIAL DOVER HUMAN RELATIONS COMMISSION MEETING OF JANUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 2 Communications Committee that the GPPP Committee would include this in their first steps. He stated that the GPPP Committee was hoping to engage with employees as the assessment process moves along. Mr. Ruane stated that, although the GPPP Committee had only three (3) members, any other member of the DHRC could work with them and they would regularly report back to the Commission on the status of this project. Mr. McGiffin stated that the GPPP Committee also intended to reach out to local higher education institutions to try to generate interest in working with the Committee on this project. Ideally, this project would fit in with the discipline of a graduate student looking for a thesis subject. This student could then provide expert assistance in putting together the survey instrument used to address the staff in the City and collect and analyze data. Mr. McGiffin indicated that the City had authorized the GPPP Committee to do this. Responding to Ms. Smith, Mr. McGiffin stated that it was hoped that the instrument developed would be broad based to address diversity in many different areas, including how the City relates internally and externally to stakeholders, vendors, and others. Mr. Wilson stated that Mayor Christiansen indicated that he was initially going to develop an instrument to be used to examine the history of the City from the perspective of the older population, in terms of determining what worked well in the past and what is working now. He would also be looking at the police accreditation report and how that will change the way things are done. Mr. Ruane felt it important for all commissioners to look at the proposed survey questions included in Reinventing Diversity, Transforming Organizational Community to Strengthen People, Purpose, and Performance by Howard J. Ross, Chapter 12, “Creating Cultures that Work,” as discussed during the DHRC meeting of October 28, 2014. He suggested that members consider ways of reframing those questions or provide their ideas for additional questions to the GPPP Committee. Mr. Ruane stated that, in terms of avoiding overlap with the Communications Committee when reaching out to the City employees, the first contact employees would have with the DHRC would be through this organizational survey. He advised members that part of the methodology would be to have a focus group and get smaller groups of employees to speak to the GPPP. He suggested that every member of the DHRC engage in this process with the City organization. Responding to Ms. Smith regarding the timing of working with the focus group, their function and the kind of data that would be gathered from them, Mr. McGiffin stated that the schedule had not been worked out yet and he was unsure if the focus group would be used before the survey. The purpose of the focus group and survey would be the same: to determine how the City is responding to various issues of diversity so that the DHRC can report on “where the City is at” and make suggestions on where it should go. Mr. McGiffin stated that it had not yet been decided who would participate in the survey and in the focus group. He reiterated that it was hoped to get input from one (1) of the local educational institutions which might have definite ideas; however, he felt that it made sense to use a couple of different modalities.

SPECIAL DOVER HUMAN RELATIONS COMMISSION MEETING OF JANUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 3 Mr. Henderson stated that, based on the discussion at the GPPP Committee meeting held earlier in the morning, the Mayor and City Manager were on board to provide their assistance, background, staff leadership, and legitimacy, and the Mayor assured transparency of all agencies and access. Mr. Wilson stated that the assurances that he heard from the Mayor, Council President, and City Manager indicated they were open, wanted to listen, and were sensitive and ready to move forward. They were looking for outside agencies as funding sources, to include local resources like Delaware State University and governmental resources such as the Department of Justice. Mr. Wilson stated his opinion that a summation and a timeline of things to be done was needed, noting that clarity comes from summarizing and making sure that each committee has a responsibility for what is being discussed within this group, and clarity on a possible meeting within each committee to come up with some outcomes in relation to the strategic plan. Ms. Smith noted that a lot of work had been done; however, she was unsure if a communications infrastructure both online and offline was in place to support this great effort, noting that an effort may not be successful if infrastructure is not in place. She questioned where in the City people would go to understand these efforts. Mr. Ruane questioned what the Communications Committee could put in place to make this happen and the timeline when the website could provide an outreach to the larger community to gain an understanding about how they perceive the City’s organization in terms of outreach, diversity and inclusion. He indicated that he was not aware of any mechanism currently in place to do this. Responding, Mr. Scott Koenig, City Manager, stated that at this point the City did not have an active website manager. In order for the DHRC to understand how to modify the DHRC section of the City’s website, Mr. Koenig stated that members would sit down with the City Clerk’s Office, IT staff, and himself and decide what access is needed and how information would be reviewed before it goes online. He indicated that some type of review would be needed, but expressed the desire to make sure that the issues that are coming up through the community were being addressed. Mr. Koenig stated the need to get the leadership team set up, have a few meetings with the Commission, introduce the leadership team to the committee chairmen so that a personal relationship could be developed and it could be determined how to get this information where it needs to go. He acknowledged that there is an internal communication problem within the City, stating that a lot of the issues that affect the City come down to communication. Mr. Koenig felt that this process would be a challenge since it had not been done before but concurred with Ms. Smith regarding the importance of communication. Mr. Ruane stated this was an example of how the tasks of the GPPP Committee would be integrated with those of another committee, noting that the Community Engagement Committee would hopefully identify what external organizations or individuals in the community should be included in the discovery process of how the City is engaged in diversity and inclusion. He questioned if the Community Engagement Committee knew who should be included as external stakeholders. Mr. Ruane hoped that the Community Engagement Committee would be able to identify individuals and organizations that should be brought in to do a separate survey or be a focus group to tell the City what the citizens think. He felt that there was an opportunity for each of the DHRC committees

SPECIAL DOVER HUMAN RELATIONS COMMISSION MEETING OF JANUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 4 to participate in the overall goal to complete the survey. Mr. Ruane explained that the methodology proposed on Page 3 of the GPPP memorandum dated October 16, 2014, was to include not only survey questionnaires but observations, interviews, focus groups, and desk reviews. Mr. Wilson questioned when the leadership team could be established, as well as a meeting date and time. Responding, Mr. Koenig stated that he could provide a recommendation for a leadership team in 30 days, and agreed to establish a time and date for that meeting and to collaborate on an agenda. Mr. Wilson stated that the committee chairs and DHRC members could be part of this meeting and requested that Mr. Ruane prepare a one (1) page action outline for that meeting. For clarification, Mr. McGiffin stated his understanding that this would be a one (1) page document listing the things the leadership team is going to do. Mr. Ruane suggested that the team’s first assignment would be to read Reinventing Diversity, Transforming Organizational Community to Strengthen People, Purpose, and Performance by Howard J. Ross, noting that he had been presenting the concepts in the book in outline form. Mr. Ruane questioned if the other committees had additional activities that they would like to engage in during the next six (6) months, in tandem with the efforts already discussed, stating that these efforts were not meant to be the total work of the Commission. Ms. Smith stated her opinion that the assessment was a major undertaking and may be a year-long project, working collaboratively, in terms of marketing it, engaging the community, creating “the buzz,” and performing the research. She stated that the task of looking at a massive organization to determine if it is functioning well in terms of diversity would entail looking at the internal individuals, external customers, and leadership, which would involve three (3) different components and three (3) totally different surveys. In addition, Ms. Smith noted that the DHRC would be attempting to engage a community that may not really be engaged. She questioned how the community could be engaged, what events would be offered to engage them in the process, and how the media could be brought on board to partner with the DHRC to run ads or articles. In her opinion, this was a “huge” endeavor and the DHRC could not work on anything else but this. Mr. Henderson stated that the community’s historical perspective must also be considered. Ms. Smith concurred, stating that this was an additional area to research. Mr. Henderson indicated that during the DHRC meeting of October 28, 2014, he had suggested having observances that are culturally sensitive throughout the year which are related to history; however, he felt that the DHRC must “go a lot deeper than that.” Mr. Wilson stated that he would take the initiative to work on an outline of things for consideration, pass it through Mr. Ruane, and proceed from there. With the City Manager getting the leadership team together, Mr. Wilson felt it important to focus on the agenda for that meeting. Noting that some members had arrived late to the meeting, Mr. Wilson reiterated that, during a GPPP meeting held earlier in the day with the City Manager, Mayor, and Council President, Mayor Christiansen had provided a briefing on the operation of the Interdenominational Ministerial

SPECIAL DOVER HUMAN RELATIONS COMMISSION MEETING OF JANUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 5 Alliance (IMA), its committees, and how it was working with the City. There had been discussion about the DHRC and the IMA in terms of the objectives of their committees and whether or not the DHRC would be an integral part of what the IMA was planning or suggesting. Mr. Wilson stated that the Mayor and the City believed that voices need to be heard, that the City should not get into a liability issue, and that matters should be brought up that the groups can work on collaboratively. Mr. Wilson reiterated that Commissioners were invited to attend IMA meetings and be a part of what is going on. He indicated his desire to ensure that there is no duplication. Mr. Wilson also advised members of the recent development of the new Department of Justice Office of Civil Rights and Public Trust and questioned how that might play into the DHRC. Mr. Ruane explained that he attended the first meeting of the IMA, which consists of a group of ministers and others who are social action committee chairs of their churches, some in the City and some not. He stated that some of the topics discussed at the meeting were the same topics discussed by the DHRC. Mr. Ruane noted that the IMA had discussed issues with the police, and he had provided the IMA Chair with information regarding the City of Dover Police Department accreditation review; however, no members of the IMA attended the review. Mr. Ruane requested clarification regarding the DHRC role in regard to the City’s Police Department, noting his understanding that the DHRC would engage with the Police Department during their survey, particularly to discuss community relations. Noting that Mr. Wilson had indicated that members were welcome to come to IMA meetings, Mr. Ruane questioned what role the DHRC would play and what Mr. Wilson wanted the DHRC to do. Responding, Mr. Wilson stated that he was not suggesting that members do anything. He stated that the IMA’s meetings are open and he would like to know about them for informational purposes. For example, the IMA’s agenda for their December 15, 2014 meeting reflected that they have a committee on jobs, on which Senator Brian Bushweller was serving, and other committees dealing with housing, education, and with police issues. Mr. Wilson felt it was interesting that these were some of the same things the DHRC may discuss as far as committees. He also questioned if there would be a conflict in looking at liability issues. Mr. Wilson stated that the DHRC would function according to the City Code; however, there would be people in the community, particularly in the African American community, questioning what the DHRC does versus what the IMA does. He indicated that he was speaking on behalf of those voices he had heard in the community who were concerned about the IMA versus the DHRC; however, he stated that it should not be “us against them.” Mr. Wilson stressed the need to work jointly and questioned how this should be expressed to a group that is working with the Mayor and not coming to the DHRC. He stated that he wanted to see everyone working together. Ms. Smith stated that the DHRC would require all “hands on deck” to execute their plan, noting that members of the DHRC and a graduate student, if offered by a university, could not execute this plan alone; a team was needed. She questioned how the DHRC and IMA could work collaboratively. Ms. Smith felt that the issue of diversity was a piece of what the IMA was trying to accomplish, and it was her belief that everyone was trying to accomplish the same thing in the end. She stated that the DHRC would need to invite the IMA to work together. She noted that there may be other groups with serious concerns and the DHRC would have to do outreach, which would require systems in place for communication and community engagement. Ms. Smith explained that when the

SPECIAL DOVER HUMAN RELATIONS COMMISSION MEETING OF JANUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 6 leadership team is brought together, one (1) of the first tasks would be to determine the strategic plan for implementation, including determining the groups that the DHRC can engage that would see this as a common goal. Ms. Smith stated that sometimes people need a personal phone call in order to become involved. She expressed her hope that the DHRC could engage the Mayor to bring everyone together. This is what she saw as a community working towards a common goal, such as the Mayor’s motto: “I believe in Dover,” and questioned why, if everyone wants the same thing, there were separate pockets. Mr. Ruane questioned if it was the desire of members to invite the IMA to a DHRC meeting. Responding, Ms. Smith expressed her opinion that this should be done by leadership, possibly Commissioner Wilson. Mr. Wilson stated that this was not a “one (1) man invitation situation” and preferred the City leadership and the committee chairs to have this discussion. He felt that it should not be the DHRC against or for the IMA, that “it has to come under one tent” in order to get it done. Mr. Wilson believed that the IMA and the DHRC each had an agenda, and felt it important to make sure there was no duplication. He noted this could enhance community engagement in terms of plans or initiatives, noting that he did not want to see isolation on either part. In addition, he stated that he was looking for information from the Attorney General’s Office in terms of how the new Office of Civil Rights and Public Trust would relate to the DHRC and the State Human Relations Commission, as well as the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) and the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP). Noting that Mr. Henderson is part of the IMA, Ms. Smith asked his opinion of the best strategic way to approach the organization so that there is maximum opportunity for success. Responding, Mr. Henderson stated his belief that the incident that took place in Ferguson, Missouri was the “driver” for the IMA. He stated that governments tend to be reactionary as opposed to being visionary; however, there were three (3) City leaders and others who want to be visionary and he felt that everyone should be patient because it is a long process without simple answers. Mr. Henderson stated that Rev. Rita Paige was in charge of the IMA Social Action Committee that was interested in working with the Mayor to ensure that a potential Ferguson does not occur in Dover, because there were some incidents that took place in the community that were potentially explosive. The desire was to be proactive. Ms. Smith stated that she knows Rev. Paige, and since Rev. Paige is in a leadership position, Ms. Smith suggested having a conversation with her over dinner and asking key questions. In this way, an understanding could be gained of Rev. Paige’s vision for the IMA and how the DHRC can work synergistically with the IMA. Ms. Smith stated that this would also help to learn how other organizations in the community could work with the DHRC. Ms. Smith noted that this would not be an easy road; she suggested having the right people at the table from the beginning, allowing Rev. Paige to take the matter back to IMA to get their buy-in, and then working together. She also felt that the Mayor had a major role to play in this because he ultimately has a relationship with everyone. Mr. Henderson stated that he was very impressed with the meeting just concluded between the GPPP Committee, Mayor, City Manager, and Council President. He indicated that they expressed

SPECIAL DOVER HUMAN RELATIONS COMMISSION MEETING OF JANUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 7 willingness to do what they can. He felt that the parts and people were in place, including the City, clergy, DHRC, and Mr. Ruane’s excellent outline, and that everyone was headed in the right direction. Mr. Henderson stated that Ms. Smith was an eloquent spokesperson who brings clarity to issues in very few words, asks the right questions, has a probing mind, and is able to put things together; therefore, he felt that Ms. Smith would do well as a leader. He cautioned members that he did not want to pretend to be the representative for the IMA; however, he was trying to do the best he could to explain since he sits on both groups. Mr. Wilson stated that there were other factions in addition to the IMA, noting that Mr. Roy Sudler, Jr., Social Action Committee Chair from the Mt. Zion A.M.E. Church, also serves as a State Human Relations Commissioner. Mr. Wilson felt that others should be brought to the table, including leaders and non-leaders who have a strong influence on others within the community, noting that leaders come with and without titles. He felt all those with some type of contribution should be part of the decision-making process and the “buy-ins” referenced by Ms. Smith. Mr. Wilson indicated that leaders, such as Rev. Davis from the Whatcoat United Methodist Church, and others from the Union Baptist Church or any other church or synagogue in Dover should be heard from, noting that currently the agenda and voices being heard were very few. He suggested that a summit or some type of important meeting be held to bring all of the people together, which he felt would go along with community engagement. Mr. Henderson felt that, before the summit, there should be communication, noting that the City Manager had asked for 30 days to provide a leadership team. Mr. Roach reminded members that the DHRC was charged with the idea of diversity and could not be too focused on one (1) entity, such as the IMA, because the one (1) thing the Commission does not want to do is leave people out. This would result in the DHRC doing the exact opposite of what it was charged to do. Mr. Roach stated that if someone has a voice, no matter how small or big, it needs to be heard. He advised members that the IMA is a very big organization; however, it is not the only one, noting that he had been in contact with some individuals in regard to issues in the Capital School District. By unanimous consent, the meeting adjourned at 11:15 a.m. Cecil C.

PRESIDENT'S COUNSEL ON PUBLIC/PRIVATE PARTNERSHIPS AND THE FUTURE OF CITY HALL, WEYANDT HALL, FORMER DOVER LIBRARY, AND OTHER CITY PROPERTIES The President's Counsel on Public/Private Partnerships and the Future of City Hall, Weyandt Hall, Former Dover Library, and Other City Properties Meeting was held on February 4, 2015 at 9:00 a.m. with Chairwoman Williams presiding. Members present were Mr. Hutchison, Mr. Perza, Mr. Clendaniel, Mr. McDaniel, and Mr. Mitten. Staff members present were Mrs. Mitchell, Mr. Koenig, Mr. Hudson, Mr. Maloney, Mrs. Hawkins, and Mrs. McDowell. AGENDA ADDITIONS/DELETIONS By unanimous consent, the agenda was approved. Self-Introduction of Members Members introduced themselves, as follows: Kenneth Clendaniel, City of Dover Facilities Management retiree; Beverly Williams, First District City Council representative; Joe McDaniel, Merrill Lynch retiree; Kevin Mitten, Mitten & Winters CPA; and James Hutchison, First District City Council representative. Welcome by Councilwoman Williams and Explanation of the Counsel's Purpose Chairwoman Williams stated that the purpose of the Counsel was to look at the City properties that are currently not performing to determine whether it will be feasible to keep or sell those properties and, ultimately, what to do about City Hall. She stated that the City Hall building is overcrowded and that is why the Finance and Customer Service Departments are currently at 5 E. Reed Street (Weyandt Hall). Responding to Mrs. Williams, Mr. Scott Koenig, City Manager, indicated that there are approximately 50 people in Weyandt Hall, including State of Delaware employees, and approximately 40 employees in City Hall. Mr. Koenig stated that if the offices at 5 E. Reed Street and City Hall were to be combined into one (1) building, there would be a need for some type of office connection for approximately 110 employees. Overview of City Properties Members were provided a map of City Owned Properties, dated February 3, 2015 (Attachment #1), as well as a list of City of Dover Properties, as of January 30, 2015 (Attachment #2). Mr. Scott Koenig, City Manager, informed members that the City completed an internal space study in 2007/2008, as a precursor to constructing the new Dover Public Library. He stated that the new Dover Public Library is 46,000 S.F. and the former Dover Public Library is approximately 17,000 S.F. Mr. Koenig explained that the front part of the former library was built in the 1960s and then an addition was constructed in the early 1980s, for a total of approximately 17,000 S.F.

PRESIDENT'S COUNSEL ON PUBLIC/PRIVATE PARTNERSHIPS AND THE FUTURE OF CITY HALL, WEYANDT HALL, FORMER DOVER LIBRARY, AND OTHER CITY PROPERTIES MEETING OF FEBRUARY 4, 2015 PAGE 2 Mr. Koenig stated that, in the early 1990s, the Downtown Dover Development Corporation bought the old WSFS building at 5 E. Reed Street, which was later purchased by the City’s electric utility and the downstairs portion of the building was remodeled. He stated that the Customer Service Department, Tax Assessor’s Office, and the Information Technology Department were moved to this building and, in 2008, the Finance Department was relocated from City Hall to the third floor at 5 E. Reed Street. Mr. Koenig stated that after the former library was vacated, Council discussed the potential of replacing City Hall. He explained that City Hall is required to be sprinklered as a condition of the final approval for the new Dover Public Library, and staff reviewed the design scenario with EDiS and found that there are multiple ceilings in City Hall as a result of multiple building modifications. Mr. Koenig stated that instead of simply installing one (1) sprinkler system over the entire building, two and one-half to three (3) sprinkler systems would have to be installed in each “confined airspace” in order to meet code requirements, which drove the cost up significantly. He explained that, as an alternative, the ceilings could be removed; however, that would require demolition with employees in the building. Additionally, Mr. Koenig stated that the air systems in City Hall are old and there has been trouble with the duct work over the years because the building is very close to the end of it its originally planned service life. Mr. Koenig informed members that, two (2) years ago, City Council discussed the potential of hiring an architecture firm to do a design of a new City Hall in the current location. He stated that discussions included various scenarios, including demolishing one (1) wing of City Hall, or demolishing the entire building and constructing a new City Hall on the site. Referring to the “2007 plan,” Mr. Koenig stated that an architect completed conceptual design drawings for the expansion of the current City Hall building. However, he explained that, the original concept could not be constructed now, as a result of the location of the new library. Although the design could be modified, Mr. Koenig stated that there is a problem with confinement on this property, noting the need for a drive-through for the Customer Service Department. Designing a building or remodeling the current City Hall to include a drive-through would be complicated because of the interconnected parking lots and the adjacent PNC Bank drive-through. Mr. Koenig explained that staff has discussed the potential of vacating the State agencies from Weyandt Hall and remodeling and connecting Weyandt Hall and the former library to create a government complex, to include a second parking deck. He stated that there are examples in the region where parking decks have been constructed on a relatively small parking area at a reasonable cost for one (1) additional level, noting that stacking three (3) or four (4) floors of parking is more complicated and costly because there are more turning movements to account for. Mr. Koenig stated that when the idea of demolishing the current City Hall building and constructing a new building was previously discussed, EDiS provided a rough estimate of approximately $10M - $15M for a 40,000 S.F. building. Additionally, EDiS estimated that it would cost $1.6M to renovate the building systems at 5 E. Reed Street, including replacement of the HVAC system and roof, which

PRESIDENT'S COUNSEL ON PUBLIC/PRIVATE PARTNERSHIPS AND THE FUTURE OF CITY HALL, WEYANDT HALL, FORMER DOVER LIBRARY, AND OTHER CITY PROPERTIES MEETING OF FEBRUARY 4, 2015 PAGE 3 also has asbestos issues. Mr. Koenig stated that the total cost to renovate 5 E. Reed Street would be a little more than $2M, including contingencies. He explained that it appeared as though it would cost less to renovate both the former library and 5 E. Reed Street, connect the buildings, and construct an elevated parking lot then it would to build a new City Hall. Mr. Koenig stated that public/private partnerships had been discussed as a possible financing option; however, he noted that this should not determine whether or not to move forward. In addition to City Hall, Weyandt Hall, and the former library, Mr. Koenig explained that the City’s warehouse was constructed in the 1960s and is also reaching the end of its original service life. Mr. Koenig stated that there may be other property available downtown that could be explored, depending on the goal for the location of City Hall. Mr. Koenig informed members that the Council Chamber in City Hall does not meet the current standards for ADA accessibility. Although staff has removed seats and installed microphones, etc., mobility challenged individuals are unable to get to the Council floor to address members. Mr. Koenig stated that staff had previously discussed building a new, elevated flooring system similar to that constructed at the new library; however, questioned how much should be spent on improvements to the current building if other options are being considered. Mr. Koenig explained that this issue is complicated because replacing only City Hall would technically be a General Fund expense because it would be a general government obligation. However, if the plan were for a combined administrative complex, the total investment could be diffused through the electric utility and the water and sewer utility because it would include general government and utility revenue obligations. He stated that the option selected would determine the City’s ability to pay back the note or finance the project. Mr. Koenig informed members that discussions regarding building renovations should include consideration of future growth projections and expectations for the 50-year life of the building. He noted that having a combined complex would enable staff to combine some resources and streamline operations. Scope of Work Members reviewed the proposed scope of work (Attachment #3), as outlined by Mrs. Williams. Responding to Mrs. Williams, Mr. Koenig confirmed that the Counsel’s task would be to gather information and determine the best course for the future. In response to Mr. McDaniel, Mr. Koenig clarified that the entire City Hall building is at the end of its service life, including the Council Chambers. Responding to Mr. Hutchison, Mr. Koenig stated that City Council discussed the potential concept of building a new office complex for the entire operation of the City during the Council Retreat in January 2013, and the estimate provided by EDiS was based on a 40,000 S.F. building.

PRESIDENT'S COUNSEL ON PUBLIC/PRIVATE PARTNERSHIPS AND THE FUTURE OF CITY HALL, WEYANDT HALL, FORMER DOVER LIBRARY, AND OTHER CITY PROPERTIES MEETING OF FEBRUARY 4, 2015 PAGE 4 Mr. Hutchison requested Mr. Koenig to provide members with information regarding the size of the Kent County Levy Court complex. Mr. Hutchison stated that members should consider: 1) what it would require and cost for a new administrative building, to include determining the location; 2) the total cost to get each building up to the current code and take care of future needs; and 3) to explore the option of a public/private partnership. Responding to Mrs. Williams, Mr. Koenig stated that the previous City Hall discussion did not include the electric administrative building or the administrative offices at the City’s warehouse because adding those offices to a City Hall complex would include a significant amount of employees and equipment. He explained that staff had separate discussions regarding the potential replacement of the electric administration building or the creation of a utilities/public works administration and warehouse at a separate location. Mr. Koenig expressed his preference to keep these items separated. He stated that although it would be possible to build one (1) building to accommodate all of the employees, it would not be possible to accommodate parking for employees and City vehicles and equipment. Mr. Hutchison stated that he liked the idea of getting rid of the current buildings and constructing a new building to meet the City’s needs for the next 30 - 40 years. Additionally, he would like to obtain information regarding the cost to bring all of the City’s buildings up to code and to expand those buildings to meet the current needs, noting that it would be a significant cost. Mr. Hutchison reiterated that members also need to examine the public/private partnership options. He stated that members should consider constructing a new building, getting rid of the three (3) current buildings, and the option of buying new property. Mr. Perza expressed his opinion that the same level of detail and attention should be spent on each of the three (3) areas. He stated that he does not want to give 90% to the partnership concept and only perform a cursory review of the other two (2) options. To make an educated decision, he suggested that members obtain the same information on each of the three (3) categories and then pick the option that would be the most beneficial to the City for the next 50 - 100 years. Mr. Perza agreed with Mr. Hutchison, stating that they should examine new construction, the potential acquisition of land, and retrofitting and rehabilitating the existing buildings without having to buy new places. He stated that retro filling and rehabilitating the current building would include the development of a plan for temporary relocation of everything in these buildings. Mr. Perza also agreed that it would be important to explore the public/private partnership financing arrangement and determine how much each option would cost the City. He noted that he did not want to spend “a fortune” exploring each option and “price ourselves out of the project.” As a follow up to Mr. Hutchison’s prior question, Mr. Koenig stated that Kent County owns 11.62 acres on Bay Road and the administrative complex is 74,350 S.F. Responding to Mrs. Williams, Mr. Koenig stated that he would request a breakdown of the building space. He explained that the usable building space was probably closer to 40,000 S.F., noting that it was built with a 40-year outlook on staffing and there are still vacant offices.

PRESIDENT'S COUNSEL ON PUBLIC/PRIVATE PARTNERSHIPS AND THE FUTURE OF CITY HALL, WEYANDT HALL, FORMER DOVER LIBRARY, AND OTHER CITY PROPERTIES MEETING OF FEBRUARY 4, 2015 PAGE 5 Mr. Hutchison noted that the City has more employees than the County and Mrs. Williams stated that the City also has a greater vehicular burden. Appraisal Methodology Mrs. Williams suggested that the Counsel begin the process by obtaining appraisals for the City’s properties, and questioned whether members preferred to hire an appraiser from Dover or outside of Dover. If members preferred an appraiser from outside of Dover, Mrs. Williams recommended Tidewater Properties or Appraisal Associates. Mr. Hutchison stated his preference for utilizing a Dover appraiser because they would have a good knowledge of the value of the properties. Mr. Perza questioned if the purpose of the appraisal was to determine the post-renovation value or the present value of the properties. Responding, Mrs. Williams stated that the appraisal would determine the present value of the properties. Mr. Perza questioned whether the present value of the properties mattered as much, since the buildings are falling apart. He stated his understanding that the intent is to retrofit the buildings or sell the buildings and questioned the objective of the appraisal. Mrs. Williams explained that an appraisal would determine the financial methodology. She stated that, before the buildings are torn down, she wants to know what they are worth and what the City may be giving up. In response to Mrs. Williams, Mr. Koenig explained that the EDiS estimate was provided when EDiS was under contract for the new library. The EDiS engineers and buildings systems employees walked through 5 E. Reed Street and provided a cursory “back of the envelope” estimate of the amount the City could expect to pay for the types of renovations required at that time. Mr. Koenig stated that he would provide the EDiS documents to members. Responding to Mrs. Williams, Mr. Koenig confirmed that an appraisal of the former library was completed when the State of Delaware was interested in the property for the Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Control (DNREC) executive offices. He stated that staff was working directly with the Dennis Groom, Director of the Office of Management and Budget, and the property was appraised at approximately $1.8M. Mr. Koenig explained that this appraisal was complicated because it included three (3) distinct properties: 1) the library, 2) the parking lot to the north of the library and the grass area to the back of the library, and 3) the entire row of parking that abuts the library. If the City were to sell the property as it was appraised, it would leave the City with approximately 30 parking spaces, which would create a parking deficit for 5 E. Reed Street. Mr. Koenig expressed his opinion that the $1.8M appraisal was a “pretty decent” price at the time; however, DNREC wanted to have the building renovated to the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) gold standard, which increased the total project cost to $6M. Since the State did not have the funding, they never followed through with the purchase of the property. Mr. Koenig stated that the City did not receive a copy of the $6M construction estimate.

PRESIDENT'S COUNSEL ON PUBLIC/PRIVATE PARTNERSHIPS AND THE FUTURE OF CITY HALL, WEYANDT HALL, FORMER DOVER LIBRARY, AND OTHER CITY PROPERTIES MEETING OF FEBRUARY 4, 2015 PAGE 6 Responding to Mr. Mitten, Mr. Koenig stated that the green design was necessary for DNREC; however, may not be necessary for the City. He stated that, if Council decides to renovate buildings, the decision will also need to be made as to whether green or conventional building designs are utilized. Mr. Koenig suggested utilizing conventional building designs because the LEED gold standard would increase the costs substantially. He stated that there are conventional designs available that are less expensive and highly efficient. Mr. Koenig stated that staff examined the utility costs for City Hall versus the new library two (2) years ago, and the monthly costs for heating, air conditioning, water, and sewer were practically the same because the library was constructed to be a much more efficient building. Mr. Hutchison stated that there are many options, and it will be a matter of reviewing all of the facts and figures and making a recommendation that is in the best interest for the future of City of Dover. He expressed his opinion that 5 E. Reed Street is an absolutely wonderful location and it would behoove the City to take a strong look at whether it can be improved and upgraded to the standards the City will need for the next 25 - 30 years and how much it would cost, noting that the City Hall property would make a great parking lot. Mr. Hudson questioned whether the Police Department would be considered during these discussions. Responding, Mr. Koenig stated that the Police Department would not be directly included in this discussion. He reiterated that there had been some preliminary discussions regarding other properties that may be available in the downtown area. Mr. Koenig informed members that one (1) of the reasons that this discussion had been on the “back burner” was because it would require a large expense that has not been included in the five (5) year forecast. He informed members that it would either require bonding or a public/private partnership. Mrs. Williams stated that, like the unfunded liability, this issue must be addressed because City Hall is “going down around us.” Mr. Koenig informed members that one (1) of the only ways of controlling the baseline budget is to control the number of City employees, noting that having these employees in one (1) building with a more modern building design would allow staff to integrate different departments, share resources, and modify business operations. Noting that this was not the only reason to build a new City Hall or do a major building renovation, Mr. Koenig stated that it was a good reason to do it now. Responding to Mrs. Williams, Mr. Hutchison stated that the first step would be to get the appraised values for each building, and asked for Mr. Clendaniel’s thoughts and concerns. Mr. Clendaniel stated that the City’s current buildings were built in the early 1970s and they all need major renovations, including the HVAC systems. He recollected that the only building with a new roof was the former library, noting that it was 20 years old. Mr. Clendaniel stated that the prices a few years ago were between $60,000 and $100,000 to upgrade the HVAC systems in each of the buildings. He informed members that it would be very costly to renovate the buildings to bring them

PRESIDENT'S COUNSEL ON PUBLIC/PRIVATE PARTNERSHIPS AND THE FUTURE OF CITY HALL, WEYANDT HALL, FORMER DOVER LIBRARY, AND OTHER CITY PROPERTIES MEETING OF FEBRUARY 4, 2015 PAGE 7 up to construction standards. As far as usage, Mr. Clendaniel stated that City Hall had been outgrown for at least the past 10 years, noting that staff had remodeled the building six (6) times in the past 20 years without adding any additional space. Mrs. Williams questioned whether Mr. Clendaniel thought renovation or construction would be more viable and if the appraisers determined that the building value was low but the property value was high. Responding, Mr. Clendaniel expressed his opinion that current construction costs are very high and it would be less costly to utilize the former library and 5 E. Reed Street. He stated that there was no longer adequate space on the City Hall property to construct the building that was proposed 10 years ago. Mr. McDaniel requested that staff provide members with accurate figures for square footage needs; the square footage of the former library and Weyandt Hall; and a list of the agencies located on the second and third floors of Weyandt Hall and their lease information. He stated that he was a big advocate of downtown Dover and expressed his opinion that the City has the ability to create a complex that would be good for downtown Dover. Mr. McDaniel also requested information regarding the parking lot on the “other side” of the former library. He noted that parking would always be a problem and understood that one (1) parking deck would be feasible, while more than one (1) would cost $20,000 - $30,000 per parking space. Referring to the map of City Owned Properties, Mr. Perza questioned whether properties owned by the City and leased by third parties were included, specifically referring to the U.S. Post Office located at 55 Loockerman Plaza. Responding, Mr. Koenig stated that the City does own 55 Loockerman Plaza and the building is leased. Mr. Perza questioned when the lease expired for that property, and whether it would be possible to incorporate it into a complex in the future. Responding, Mr. Koenig stated that the Post Office lease would expire in 2020, and there has been no indication that the government has any construction money. Mr. Koenig noted that conceptual drawings were previously completed in regard to converting that property to a parking lot. He stated that the building was in terrible shape, and the value would probably be $0 by 2020. Mr. Koenig stated that the community feeling regarding the Post Office, as conveyed during discussions about the new library, was that people want a customer counter facility in the downtown area and they did not want it to be relocated. However, he explained that there was some “back-operation” performed at this location and he did not think anyone would mind if this function leaves the downtown area. Responding to Mr. Perza, Mr. Koenig stated that he was uncertain who controlled the lease renewal option for 55 Loockerman Plaza; however, it was his impression that it would have to be mutually extended. He indicated that he would provide this information to members. Mr. Perza stated that he generally agrees with keeping the Post Office downtown; however, he noted that it could be relocated to another property on Loockerman Street.

PRESIDENT'S COUNSEL ON PUBLIC/PRIVATE PARTNERSHIPS AND THE FUTURE OF CITY HALL, WEYANDT HALL, FORMER DOVER LIBRARY, AND OTHER CITY PROPERTIES MEETING OF FEBRUARY 4, 2015 PAGE 8 Mr. Koenig informed members that many possible options had been previously discussed. He stated that the PNC Bank building, located at 3 Loockerman Plaza, was an attractive building; however, PNC Bank had indicated that they want to keep their presence downtown and want to maintain ownership of that building. While there are vacancies in the building, combining a bank with government operations would create challenges. Mr. Koenig noted that there were multiple good options; however, parking will become a topic of discussion because there are current complaints that there is not enough free parking. He stated that if the City were to build a combined campus, parking would need to be a major consideration. Referring to the map of City Owned Properties, Mr. Perza questioned whether any of the land at Schutte Park would be viable for a new building or complex, noting that there would be plenty of space for parking. Responding, Mr. Koenig stated that there may have been caveats regarding the donation of that land to the City and that he would provide members with additional information regarding the land. Mr. Hutchison stated that City Hall should be located in the downtown area, and informed members that the current timing of these discussions provided a wonderful opportunity, since the State government and City of Dover were entering a partnership regarding the downtown. Hutchison moved to recommend obtaining appraisal values on each of the sites, seconded by Mr. McDaniel. Mr. McDaniel questioned which properties would be included in the appraisal. Responding, Mr. Hutchison clarified that appraisals would be obtained for Weyandt Hall, the former library, and City Hall. The motion to recommend obtaining appraisal values for Weyandt Hall, the former Dover Public Library, and City Hall was unanimously carried. Mrs. Williams asked if members had any thoughts regarding the selection of the appraiser. Mr. McDaniel agreed with Mr. Hutchison that the appraiser did not necessarily need to be from Wilmington and could be local, and questioned whether bids would need to be solicited. Responding, Mr. Koenig stated that the City would need to obtain three (3) quotes. Mrs. Williams stated that she would like to obtain quotes from one (1) appraiser outside of Dover and two (2) from Dover. She stated that the appraisers should not have any connection to any of the properties. Mr. Mitten agreed with hiring an appraiser from Dover, noting that they would have a better knowledge of the property values than an appraiser from Wilmington. Mr. Perza cautioned members about retaining an appraiser who may have an interest in future development with the City, or may have a connection to someone with an interest.

PRESIDENT'S COUNSEL ON PUBLIC/PRIVATE PARTNERSHIPS AND THE FUTURE OF CITY HALL, WEYANDT HALL, FORMER DOVER LIBRARY, AND OTHER CITY PROPERTIES MEETING OF FEBRUARY 4, 2015 PAGE 9 Mrs. Williams suggested that staff obtain three (3) bids, one (1) of those being from outside of the City of Dover. Mr. McDaniel moved to recommend obtaining three (3) quotes for an appraiser, to include one (1) from outside of Dover, and two (2) from Dover, seconded by Mr. Hutchison. Mr. Perza expressed his concern regarding having the buildings appraised at this time, explaining that he was weary of spending money on an appraisal that would not be useful in one (1) year. He stated that the City will need to obtain estimates for the costs to renovate and rehabilitate the buildings and that it may be more worthwhile to wait until that process is complete to have the buildings appraised. Responding to Mr. Perza, Mr. Koenig explained that an appraiser would not be able to provide information on what the building would be worth in the future, because he will not be able to provide specific renovation plans. He stated that the appraisal would be based on the current condition of the properties. Responding to Mr. Perza, Mr. Koenig confirmed that the City may consider selling these buildings in the current condition, which would make the appraisal valuable. Mr. Hutchison expressed his opinion that obtaining the current value is a necessary first step and the next step would be to have a team of experts look at the buildings and provide an estimate of the cost to bring them up to code. The motion to recommend obtaining three (3) quotes for an appraiser, to include one (1) from outside of Dover, and two (2) from Dover was unanimously carried. Mr. Koenig informed members that the commercial property records for 5 E. Reed Street indicate that the building has an approximate total square footage of 40,000 S.F.; however, he noted that not all of this is usable space. He stated that the tax assessment value for this property is $3.1M and a final building value is $2.1M. Mr. Koenig stated that City Hall is 16,700 S.F., and the former library is 12,444 S.F. Responding to Mr. McDaniel, Mr. Koenig confirmed that there is a second floor in part of the former library building and stated his belief that the total square footage was approximately 17,000 S.F.; however, he would provide this information for the next meeting. Discussion of Meeting Dates and Times Responding to Mr. Hutchison, Mr. Koenig stated that it would take some time to obtain the quotes, select an appraiser, and complete the appraisals, and members may want to schedule another meeting in the interim. Mr. Koenig requested a few weeks to compile the requested information.

PRESIDENT'S COUNSEL ON PUBLIC/PRIVATE PARTNERSHIPS AND THE FUTURE OF CITY HALL, WEYANDT HALL, FORMER DOVER LIBRARY, AND OTHER CITY PROPERTIES MEETING OF FEBRUARY 4, 2015 PAGE 10 Mr. Koenig clarified that the Counsel’s recommendations must be authorized by City Council. He stated that he could obtain the quotes; however, he cannot act on them until after City Council considers the recommendation during the Regular Council meeting of February 23, 2015. By unanimous consent, the next meeting was scheduled for Wednesday, February 25, 2015 at 9:00 a.m. Mrs. Williams informed members that the proceedings of this Counsel are governed by the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA); therefore, members are not able to discuss the matters considered by this Counsel with one another outside of official meetings, including email correspondence. She advised members that the City Clerk’s Office is available to answer any questions they may have. By unanimous consent, the meeting adjourned at 10:03 a.m. Beverly C.

PARKS, RECREATION, AND COMMUNITY ENHANCEMENT COMMITTEE The Parks, Recreation, and Community Enhancement Committee Meeting was held on February 9, 2015, at 3:30 p.m. with Chairman Dixon presiding. Members present were Mr. Hutchison, Mr. Anderson, Mr. Caldwell, and Mrs. Horsey. AGENDA ADDITIONS/DELETIONS Mr. Hutchison moved for approval of the agenda, seconded by Mr. Anderson and unanimously carried. Semi-Annual Review - Statistics Regarding Jobs and Businesses Gained and Lost in the City of Dover Since July 2014 Mr. Bill Neaton, Economic Development Manager, reviewed statistics regarding the City of Dover top employers, noting there had not been a big difference in the number of employees since July 2014; however, he pointed out other positive events that recently took place. He noted that Bayhealth Medical Center had opened a third floor, which added 100 employees and 32 beds to the facility. In addition, Mr. Neaton stated that Bayhealth continues to expand by adding a fourth “shelf floor” upon completion of the third floor. He advised members that Bayhealth also had plans for expansion in Milford, Delaware, which will include an entirely new facility. Mr. Neaton stated that Energizer will be remodeling their facility on Clara Street, as well as adding a new building, which will bring approximately 250-275 positions to Dover. They will be closing their facility in Canada and producing all of their feminine care products at the Dover location. Additionally, Mr. Neaton noted that Kraft Foods and Proctor & Gamble are potentially adding 30 positions. Mr. Neaton stated that, while the number of employees at ILC had decreased, they are working on negotiating another contract for aerostat production. He provided members information pertaining to some of the vacant buildings in the City, including the old OfficeMax location, where Produce Junction would be located, and the former Metro building, where Urban Furniture and Airbase Carpet would be located, bringing an additional 35-50 jobs. Mr. Neaton also advised that Uzin Utz was scheduled to open in May, which would equate to another 25-30 employees. Responding to Mr. Hutchison, Mr. Neaton advised members that E-Z Pass was very pleased with their location in downtown Dover. He was unsure of their hours of operation but offered to find out. In response to Mrs. Horsey, Mr. Neaton clarified that the 471 positions listed for ILC included the loss of jobs resulting from the lost aerostat contract. Responding to Mr. Anderson, Mr. Neaton said he was unsure if the ILC plant in Sussex County would have any impact on its Kent County operation. Mr. Anderson said he had observed that there were fewer vacancies in downtown Dover and more minority owned-businesses. He questioned if Mr. Neaton’s observations were similar and if anyone was keeping track of this information. Responding, Mr. Neaton agreed with Mr. Anderson’s observation and indicated that Mr. Ed Perez, Downtown Coordinator, tracks this information. In addition, Mr. Neaton referenced potential projects that would not have gone through before the

PARKS, RECREATION, AND COMMUNITY ENHANCEMENT COMMITTEE MEETING OF FEBRUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 2 designation of the Downtown Development District in Dover. He stated that this designation would continue to aid in the efforts to bring more business and money to the downtown area and the City overall. Responding to Mr. Anderson, Mr. Neaton said he did not have the unemployment rate for the City of Dover with him; however, he would find out and email this information to him. Responding to Mr. Dixon regarding Bayhealth’s expansion design plans, Mayor Christiansen advised that Bayhealth can build up to 10 stories high. He indicated that, in addition to growth in that direction, Bayhealth was utilizing space at their campus across the street from the main facility. Mr. Neaton added that Bayhealth was currently being evaluated for Magnet status for excellence in nursing and delivery of care. In response to Mr. Dixon regarding the rising cost of health care, Mr. Neaton advised that there is a demand for the best health care and equipment, and it costs money to achieve that level of care. Investigating AmeriCorps and Retired Senior Volunteer Program (RSVP) to Supplement Staffing Mr. Scott Koenig, City Manager, referred to the memorandum dated January 9, 2015 from Ms. Margie Cyr, Library Director, Re: Volunteer Programs at the Dover Public Library. He indicated that the programs utilized are more along the lines of the Retired Senior Volunteer Program (RSVP) than AmeriCorps. Mr. Koenig stated that opportunities to utilize these programs and their degree of success varies, depending on the area in which they are used. He advised that some of the volunteers being utilized at the library are individuals who are challenged in some ways, and the program allows them to get out into the community and contribute. Mr. Koenig explained that these volunteer programs had not been pursued in other areas of government due the need for oversight, as well as concerns related to taking work from existing bargaining employees. He noted that quality of work was also an issue in areas such as customer service and cash handling, as well as access to information such as customer credit and utility service information. Mr. Koenig explained that, in the past, the City had occasionally utilized community service hours at the Public Works level and some court-mandated community service in sanitation, but this had been very limited in the last two (2) decades. Mr. Koenig mentioned that interest had been expressed in using college students looking for experience as interns, but reiterated that a great deal of oversight would be required to guide interns and/or volunteers. Mr. Anderson expressed his feeling that City government could utilize internships to supplement programs in Finance, Planning, Economic Development (particularly organizing events with the Downtown Dover Partnership), Recreation, and areas of that nature. Responding, Mr. Koenig said that staff members may be interested in interns; however, he noted that interns typically seek paid opportunities. He indicated that this could be considered; however, contact hours would have to be limited to less than 30 per week. Mr. Koenig also noted that there is a difference in the structure of paid internships versus volunteer programs, such as AmeriCorps and RSVP. He indicated that the success rate would vary depending on the quality of the individual and the amount of oversight needed. Mr. Koenig thought that if the City were to pursue programs involving volunteers or interns,

PARKS, RECREATION, AND COMMUNITY ENHANCEMENT COMMITTEE MEETING OF FEBRUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 3 staff should work together to develop a structured program versus intermittent, short-term interns. He noted that it would take staff time to get up and running, which would also cost money, and this would need to be considered when evaluating and reviewing the budget. Responding to Mr. Anderson regarding the potential for some programs or universities to provide funding or at least supplement the costs, Mr. Koenig stated that although staff time was currently limited, if it were the pleasure of Council, this could be researched and considered as a way to potentially solve some problems. Revival of Youth Advisory Committee Mr. Anderson reminded members that when Mrs. Sophia Russell served on City Council, she was heavily involved in the Youth Advisory Committee. Since Mrs. Russell’s passing, this Committee was no longer assembled. Mr. Anderson felt this was an important committee that involved the youth, raised awareness, helped build leadership skills, engaged young people, and helped keep youth on the right path. He advised members that Mrs. Russell had asked him to keep the Committee going; however, shortly after her passing, he was deployed for one (1) year. Mr. Anderson expressed his desire to revive the Youth Advisory Committee, as it was needed now more than ever. He indicated that there were a lot of interested youth who wished to apply and he, as a councilman, would like to run the Committee. Mr. Anderson noted activities in other municipalities, such as Harrington’s New Year’s Eve celebration, that are put on by youth committees, and stated that he would like to see similar opportunities for the youth of the City of Dover. He felt that the support of the community was present and that the Committee would be a success. In response to Mr. Hutchison, Mr. Anderson indicated that the members of the Committee who would take the lead would likely be high school aged; however, anyone could be involved. He referenced Council Resolution 2010-03, Youth Advisory Committee (YAC) Council Resolution No. 2008-11, with Amendment No. 1 (Attachment #1), that created the Committee and defined its charge and purpose. Mr. Anderson could not recall all of the components of the purpose of the Committee; however, he indicated that, to the best of his recollection, they included advising Council on matters related to youth in the community, planning and executing drug-free events for the youth, and coordinating additional parks and recreation activities. Mrs. Horsey said that she was serving on the Parks, Recreation, and Community Enhancement Committee when Councilwoman Russell initially introduced it and conveyed how passionate Mrs. Russell was about it. Mrs. Horsey expressed concurrence and appreciation for the idea of reviving the Committee in Mrs. Russell’s memory, and for the benefit of the youth in the community. Mrs. Ann Marie Townshend, Director of Planning and Community Development, offered some insight on behalf of herself and the City Manager as to the requirements of staff to support the Committee. She reminded members of the involvement of the Clerk’s Office preparing the agendas and minutes, Parks and Recreation staff, and Ms. Kay Sass, Emergency Management Coordinator in the City Manager’s Office, as well as the potential costs. Mrs. Townshend stated that these staff

PARKS, RECREATION, AND COMMUNITY ENHANCEMENT COMMITTEE MEETING OF FEBRUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 4 members and departments were currently stretched very thin, noting that the addition of this Committee could result in additional hours, leading to overtime or comp time for some of those staff members. Mr. Dixon said that he too would love to see the Committee revived, noting that youth in the community had always been important to him and had been a focal point of his participation on Council. Mr. Hutchison also conveyed his support; however, he felt that the budget needed to be considered to ensure that the City could afford to support the program in terms of costs associated with staffing. Mr. Anderson noted that the previous budget for the Committee was only approximately $1,000 and that the founding resolution allowed for the Committee to raise money as well. Mayor Christiansen noted that the first Youth Advisory Committee was activated in 1990 and at that time, a budget was not considered in creating the Committee and getting the youth involved. The Committee at that time had members from Dover High School, Caesar Rodney High School, two (2) City residents who attended Polytech High School, and one (1) attending private school. Mayor Christiansen noted that the Youth in Government Day that was created had continued, in spite of the dissolution of the Committee and not having a budget to work with. Mr. Caldwell expressed his feeling that money should not interfere with the opportunity to involve the youth and have their voice be heard. Mr. Anderson moved to recommend reviving the Youth Advisory Committee and reviewing applications at the March 9, 2015 Parks, Recreation, and Community Enhancement meeting. The motion was seconded by Mrs. Horsey and unanimously carried. Updates Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program Quarterly Update Mrs. Tracey Harvey, Planner I, advised members that Planning Department staff was currently working on the five (5) year Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Consolidated Plan that would be due to the Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Department by May 15, 2015. As part of the process, the first public hearing was held November 12, 2014 at the Dover Public Library. Mrs. Harvey indicated that multi-year grants were currently being accepted for the FY15-19 program years for eligible projects in the City and stated that the deadline was today, February 9, 2015 at 5:00 p.m. She noted that, as of the time of the meeting, approximately eight (8) applications had been submitted. Mrs. Harvey stated that the Mayor and Community Development staff attended the Mayor’s Challenge to End Veterans’ Homelessness Roundtable Summit at the HUD Philadelphia field office in December 2014. The summit featured panel discussions and brainstorming discussions ranging from building coalitions to available resources and supportive services to end veteran homelessness. The Mayor’s working group also held their own Summit to End Veterans’ Homelessness by December 2015 on January 22, 2015 at Delaware Technical and Community

PARKS, RECREATION, AND COMMUNITY ENHANCEMENT COMMITTEE MEETING OF FEBRUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 5 College, which was well attended. In addition, Mrs. Harvey advised that a “Boot Camp” had been scheduled for March 2, 2015 at the Dover Public Library for housing providers to kick off the initiative to develop a process to house homeless veterans. Responding to Mr. Anderson regarding strategies planned as a result of the homeless summit for veterans, Mrs. Harvey stated that those strategies will be rolled out during the Boot Camp and advised that there is not a large population of homeless veterans in the City of Dover. In response to Mr. Anderson, Mrs. Harvey stated that she did not have the exact count at this time; however, a Point in Time Survey was completed on January 30, 2015, so she should have that information soon and would advise members once it was available. Mrs. Harvey mentioned that results from last year indicated that there were only four (4) homeless veterans in Dover; however, that number was not accurate. As a result, the process for obtaining this information was changed to take a count several times throughout the year to obtain more accurate figures. She advised that the Code Purple program is now in effect in Dover, which should help with obtaining that information. Responding to Mr. Anderson, Mrs. Harvey advised that some of the strategies planned in the effort to end veteran homelessness included transitional housing and permanent support of housing, and the Delaware State Housing Authority (DSHA) would be giving veterans first preference as vacancies become available. Mr. Anderson inquired about the process involved in seeking assistance from the Veterans Affairs (VA), stating that it can be difficult and that many veterans are not informed or able to complete the necessary paperwork. In response, Mrs. Harvey stated that this type of assistance is being provided, as well as ensuring all avenues can be pursued to get the veterans the help they need. In response to Mr. Anderson, Mrs. Harvey explained that the City’s CDBG program began in year three (3) of a five (5) year cycle, and that this year would begin the first full five (5) year cycle for the program. Recreation Needs Assessment Mrs. Ann Marie Townshend, Director of Planning and Community Development, advised members that for the past month she had been primarily consumed with the process of obtaining the City’s Downtown Development District designation; therefore, updated information was limited. She stated that a Request for Proposal (RFP) had gone out with funds from the FY15 budget to begin the planning process, starting with Dover Park, to incorporate feedback from the survey, and begin outreach into a design for the park, including lighting, vegetation, a potential spray pad, indoor restrooms, and reservation of a building pad for future use, should it be determined that it is necessary. Mrs. Townshend explained that the same process would then be followed for Schutte Park and then Silver Lake Park. Responding to Mr. Hutchison regarding how the funding from the Governor and the support coming from Kent County Levy Court would affect the Downtown Development District target area, Mrs. Townshend indicated that money would not come through the City, it would go directly to individual private applicants and property owners. She briefly explained the process, stating that

PARKS, RECREATION, AND COMMUNITY ENHANCEMENT COMMITTEE MEETING OF FEBRUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 6 after an initial $25,000 investment is made on a business or property, the party will be eligible for a rebate for up to 20% from the State, and Kent County will match that rebate up to $10,000. For example, Mrs. Townshend stated that if an investor purchased a building that needed $150,000 in improvements, the first $25,000 of that $150,000 would be funded by the property owner, and the remaining $125,000 would be eligible for reimbursement, up to 20% from the State and $10,000 from Kent County. She explained that, after the work is complete, the property owner would submit receipts, if the project is under $250,000, to request reimbursement. If the project is in excess of $250,000, the property owner would need to go through a reservation process, for which the State is currently accepting applications. Mrs. Townshend said she was aware of at least two (2) or three (3) property owners already going through the reservation process. She advised of additional incentives, such as permit fees, building permits, impact fees, and property transfer fee waivers (after March 1, 2015), stating that once a Certificate of Occupancy (CO) is issued, the buyer’s portion of the transfer tax will also be rebated. Additionally, Mrs. Townshend said participants could qualify for business license fee waivers, along with home ownership incentives. Responding to Mr. Hutchison, Mrs. Townshend advised members that the City’s contribution would be in-kind, noting that all City revenue benefits for new businesses in the downtown area will be waived for a period of time. While there would be additional businesses and activities, the City would not see the revenue from that increase initially. Mrs. Townshend advised Mr. Hutchison that the target area included Mary Street down to Water Street and the area east of Cherry Street and Lincoln Park, ending at State Street. Mr. Hutchison stated that the Presidents Counsel on Public/Private Partnerships and the Future of City Hall, Weyandt Hall, Former Dover Library and Other City Properties met to address the needs of the City and the best way to address those issues and concerns within the City of Dover was part of the total movement to improve the City. Mr. Hutchison recognized the efforts and support of everyone in the City, particularly the Planning Department, Fire Marshal’s Office, and Law Enforcement. Mr. Neaton indicated that, in addition to the incentives recognized by Mrs. Townshend, the Downtown Dover Partnership would be providing up to $5,000 reimbursement for architectural assistance, in addition to facade grants for upgrading the front of buildings or for signage. Responding to Mr. Hutchison, Mrs. Townshend stated that the incentives do not include funding for demolition. Mr. Dixon shared his concern that the community did not understand the Downtown Development District designation, what it means, the benefits of the designation, etc. Mrs. Townshend advised that the City will be holding three (3) workshops on February 26, 2015 at Dover Public Library and people from the various entities involved would be there to explain their portion of the program and to educate the community. Mrs. Townshend also said that an interactive GIS map was in the process of being made available for the City’s website, so that people can click on a property and be able to determine which incentives are available. The GIS mapping tool would allow the applicant to print

PARKS, RECREATION, AND COMMUNITY ENHANCEMENT COMMITTEE MEETING OF FEBRUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 7 a map to include in the application, as it is a State requirement to document conformance with the City’s District plan. She stated that City staff and the Delaware State Housing Authority (DSHA) were making themselves available to review and explain the process to anyone needing assistance and were willing to review applications before submission to the State. Mrs. Townshend stated that the City has five (5) different brochures to distribute and educate the community and the State has brochures as well. Mayor Christiansen expressed his sincere appreciation and acknowledged the depth of the time, work, and effort of Mr. Scott Koenig, City Manager; Mrs. Townshend and her staff; Mr. Bill Neaton, Economic Development Manager; and Mr. Kirby Hudson, Assistant City Manager, referencing the specific benchmarks that had been set during weekly meetings to keep the momentum to promote and improve Dover. Regarding Mr. Dixon’s concerns about individuals without computers having access to all of the tools and information, Mrs. Townshend assured him that she, her staff, and others involved would be available to assist anyone who needs help in any way necessary to be sure they get all of the information they require. Mr. Hutchison moved for adjournment, seconded by Mrs. Horsey and unanimously carried. Meeting adjourned at 4:34 p.m. Wallace R.

UTILITY COMMITTEE The Utility Committee Meeting was held on February 9, 2015 at 5:15 p.m. with Councilman Slavin presiding in the absence of Chairwoman Williams. Members present were Mr. Perza, Mr. Snaman, and Mr. Blakeman. Members of Council present were Mr. Dixon and Mr. Hutchison. Mayor Christiansen (departed at 5:31 p.m.) was also present. AGENDA ADDITIONS/DELETIONS Mr. Blakeman moved for approval of the agenda, seconded by Mr. Snaman and unanimously carried. Reimbursement Agreement with Pioneer Materials - Abandonment of Shallow Well #7A Mr. Scott Koenig, City Manager, informed members that Shallow Well #7A is one (1) of the City’s raw water wells located east of the City, and the City supplies the Long Point Road Water Treatment Plant with water from the Columbia Aquifer. This is one (1) of three (3) aquifers that the City draws from, and is the shallowest aquifer. Mr. Koenig explained that there is a sand and gravel mining operation scattered throughout this well field. In December of 2007, Pioneer Materials (formerly known as Tilcon) was excavating very close to the easements associated with this well and damaged the raw water and electrical supply lines to the wellhead. Since that time, the well supply had not been operable. Mr. Koenig advised members that, because of the long-term well and mining operations at this location, the City and Pioneer Materials believed it would be in the best interest to abandon this well, based on its current condition. The City had been negotiating with Pioneer Materials to develop an acceptable solution and, currently, it is felt that the well should be abandoned in accordance with State standards and all of the equipment should be removed. Mr. Koenig indicated that a price of $13,126 was stated in the agreement for Funding for Shallow Well 7A Abandonment, including all of the associated closure items. Pioneer Materials would agree that if the City were to re-drill this well in the future, Pioneer Materials would contribute up to $50,000 for the siting and construction of a new well. Given the current restrictions in the Columbia Aquifer, Mr. Koenig was unsure if the City would drill another well at this location because of the way the State is managing this water supply permit. He indicated that the State had restricted the City in the Columbia Aquifer because of concerns with the pumping levels associated with farming operations around the Long Point Road Water Treatment Plant. In regard to the $13,126 cost of abandonment, Mr. Koenig stated his expectation that the City would front the money and then bill Pioneer Materials for reimbursement at the same time that the City is billed by the contractor. This would be reflected as an expense on the City’s budget, but there would be miscellaneous income coming from Pioneer Materials to pay the bill. Staff recommended acceptance of the reimbursement agreement and authorization for the City Manager to execute it. Mr. Perza questioned if the 10-year time frame related to the $50,000 contribution toward construction cost would start at the time the equipment is removed or would be retroactive to 2007. Responding, Mr. Koenig stated his feeling that it would be 10 years from the time the reimbursement agreement is executed, ending in approximately 2025. Mr. Perza noted that the language in Paragraph C of the agreement left this matter open to interpretation as being retroactive to 2007, and Mr. Koenig agreed to clarify this before the matter is considered by Council.

UTILITY COMMITTEE MEETING OF FEBRUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 2 In response to Mr. Perza in regard to the risk of harm to anyone in the community from the well, Mr. Koenig indicated there was no risk, stating that the well pipe was approximately six (6) to eight (8) inches in diameter and is closed. Referencing the amount of up $50,000 that would be paid by Pioneer Materials toward a future well, Mr. Blakeman questioned if there were any restrictions related to where a new well could be placed. Mr. Koenig stated that the location would be limited to the Columbia well field, since this well was feeding the water treatment plant in the area. He felt that drilling a well on the west side of town would not be within the intent of the agreement. Mr. Blakeman moved to recommend authorizing the City Manager to execute the reimbursement agreement, as recommended by staff. The motion was seconded by Mr. Snaman and unanimously carried. Quarterly Review of Utility Related Capital Investment Plan (CIP) (Electric and Water/Wastewater) (October, November, and December) Mr. Scott Koenig, City Manager, reviewed the General Fund - Major CIP Projects - Quarterly Report as of December 31, 2014. Mr. Koenig stated that Project Code ST1304 - Garrison Farm Improvements included improvements including stormwater, roads, and ditching associated with the Garrison Farm. He explained that those projects were underway and slightly behind, but progressing through completion. He noted that this project goes back to FY13 funding. Mr. Koenig indicated that staff was working through the FY14 projects. The air conditioning system had been installed at the John W. Pitts Center and final testing would be done in the summer when the temperatures rise. Demolition at White Oak Park was complete. The Concrete Program and the FY14 Bonded Street Programs were coming to an end. Mr. Koenig explained that the Village of Westover project related to money that was called on a letter of credit, and the balance of those funds was transferred to Cannon Mill. Work was currently underway at that Cannon Mills. Mr. Koenig stated that a number of FY15 projects were underway associated with the General Fund. Mr. Koenig reviewed the Community Transportation - Major CIP Projects, noting that they included older projects, such as South Street Paving, as well as newer agreements for Loockerman Plaza, Townsend Boulevard, and Village of Cannon Mill. In regard to the Water/Wastewater Improvement & Extension Fund - Major CIP Projects, Mr. Koenig indicated that staff had been working to find a second site for the Elevated Water Storage Tank in the Denneys Road area and was moving toward a favorable relocation of that project to another property. Construction of the Piney Point Well was complete and staff was in the process of getting permits approved by the State to turn the well into production. It was planned to time production with the acceptance of wastewater flow and the beginning of testing of the Calpine project in the next few weeks. Mr. Koenig stated that the Garrison Farm Water Tank was underway, as well as wastewater improvements at that location. A number of additional wastewater projects were underway, specifically Inflow and Infiltration (I&I) projects at Buck Drive, White Oak Farms, and Towne Point, and pump station projects throughout the City.

UTILITY COMMITTEE MEETING OF FEBRUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 3 In regard to Electric Improvement & Extension Fund (I&E) - Major CIP Projects, Mr. Koenig stated that a number of projects were underway at the McKee Run plant in the current year, as well as projects related to new developments and system upgrades that were being “cleaned up” from FY14 and FY13 in Capital Park and Richardson Circle. In addition, there were new projects that would be system upgrades, including Family Dollar and Chandelle Airport. Some were related to new customers and some to replacement of infrastructure. Mr. Koenig noted that two (2) large projects were the Horsepond Road Substation and the General Scott Switchgear Replacement. He advised members that the Horsepond Road Substation project was complete and in service, and staff had prepared an overview that would be sent to Council to highlight the improvements associated with this project. The General Scott Switchgear Replacement project was moving forward. There were a number of projects related to lighting new developments underway in FY15, and staff was working through those projects. Mr. Koenig advised members that there had been a very large backlog of projects being addressed and moving through the queue. He expressed his hope that by the end of 2015 there would be very little backlog moving forward and indicated that staff had worked very hard to get those projects out of the way. TEA/NAES Report (December) The TEA/NAES Monthly Report for December 2014 was provided to members to enable them to monitor electric sales and revenues received, which will provide a better understanding of any fluctuations that occur and allow the opportunity to make improvements if deemed necessary. Referring to Page 12 of The Energy Authority, Inc. Monthly Management Committee Update - December 2014, Mr. Scott Koenig, City Manager, reviewed the budget year-to-date expenses for the City’s energy purchases. He explained that the budget year-to-date expectation was to spend approximately$25,900,125, and so far $23,928,123 had been expended; therefore, the City was approximately $2M favorable on energy expenses through the end of December. Mr. Koenig stated that the budget had been tracking “pretty much like that” in the first six (6) months of the fiscal year and staff was hopeful that this would continue through the balance of the year. He advised members that “things had tightened up a lot” in the energy markets and reminded members that in January 2014, the City spent $5M more than planned, which threw off the entire year. This was not seen in January 2015, which was relatively routine to Mr. Koenig’s knowledge. Mr. Koenig advised members that the Source and Formula columns in the spreadsheet included notations reflecting how the related figures are arrived at. Mr. Blakeman moved to recommend acceptance of the TEA/NAES Monthly Report for December 2014, seconded by Mr. Snaman and unanimously carried. Updates - Garrison Oak Technical Park Project Mr. Scott Koenig, City Manager, provided the following updates on the Garrison Oak Technical Park (GOTP):

UTILITY COMMITTEE MEETING OF FEBRUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 4 City Infrastructure/Calpine Energy Center Mr. Koenig explained that three (3) different contracts were underway at the GOTP: 1) George & Lynch, Inc. was working on the wastewater pumping station, force main, and upgrades to the White Oak Farms Pump Station and entering the final phases of the project. The force main was in, tested, and was ready to receive flow. George & Lynch, Inc. were still working on upgrades at White Oak Farms, but this was not preventing flow from going into the new station. Mr. Koenig stated that the final hook-up of the power supply was preventing this flow. The City of Dover had run power feeds to a pedestal box adjacent to the pump station site, and George & Lynch and their subcontractor were in the process of hooking this up from the City’s ending pedestal, through their cabinetry, into the station, so that the pump station could be energized and go through the final testing. As of the current date, the intent was that the station would be energized and tested on or before February 17, 2015 and that the City would be receiving flow on or about that date. Once the station is energized and ready to receive flow, Mr. Koenig stated that the City would be receiving discharge from the Calpine site. Shortly thereafter, the City would progress toward abandonment of the White Oak Road Pump Station, a small pump station on the south side of White Oak Road that was part of a planned sewer system upgrade. 2) The City had been working with A-Del Construction Company for a number of months. Their contract includes the gravity sewer and water systems, as well as the roads, sidewalks, and entrances onto White Oak Road. Mr. Koenig stated that a number of things had progressed on the eastern side of the project and both entrances were being worked on, including the new entrance off White Oak Road. Once the east entrance was base coated and paved, all construction traffic would flip over to the east side and they would begin forming up curb work on the west side. Prior to this, they would be working on stormwater infrastructure on the west side. Mr. Koenig advised members that the contract was running behind; it was hoped that the road would be paved by this point and this was beginning to cause scheduling problems, but A-Del was doing what they could to come back into compliance with the specifications and timelines. The contractor had not requested the weather days at this point, so they had not been factored into the completion date. The original completion date was December 31, 2014. Mr. Koenig noted the importance, moving forward, of making progress on good days and ensuring on bad weather days that arrangements are made to afford for rain, ponding, and puddling. 3) In regard to the water tower project, Mr. Koenig stated that Chicago Bridge and Iron Company had done some work in the fall. They had demobilized and were supposed to return in early February; however, returned in mid-January to begin the base of the tower and work was progressing. Mr. Koenig stated that progress was being made every day, all projects were moving forward, and the entire project was coming to an end. Noting that power lines were run to the Cartanza substation, Mr. Blakeman inquired if the switchgear and breakers were in place on the Delmarva Power and Light side of the substation. Mr. Koenig stated that, to his knowledge, everything was ready. He stated that when the City can begin

UTILITY COMMITTEE MEETING OF FEBRUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 5 accepting wastewater flow, Matrix, the Garrison Energy Center’s construction manager, will begin the testing sequence of the plant and will be dumping “test power” to the grid. The only impediment that had been indicated to Mr. Koenig was the wastewater pump station. Dover Sun Park Mr. Scott Koenig, City Manager, reviewed the Electric Revenue Fund FY15 - White Oak Solar Park Incremental Cost. He advised members that the YTD column reflected an incremental energy cost of approximately $515,000 through December 2014. He explained that this was the added cost of the power associated with the Dover Sun Park. Mr. Koenig felt that these figures were tracking as expected and the Dover Sun Park was functioning and performing as anticipated in the budget. Mr. Snaman moved for adjournment, seconded by Mr. Perza and unanimously carried. Meeting adjourned at 5:37 p.m. Timothy A.

LEGISLATIVE, FINANCE, AND ADMINISTRATION COMMITTEE The Legislative, Finance, and Administration Committee meeting was held on February 9, 2015, at 5:45 p.m. with Chairman Slavin presiding. Members present were Mr. Anderson, Mr. Hare, Mr. Shevock, and Mr. Sudler (arrived at 5:49 p.m.). Members of Council present were Mr. Dixon (arrived at 5:49 p.m.), Mr. Hutchison, and Mr. Bonar (arrived at 6:45 p.m.). Mayor Christiansen was also present. AGENDA ADDITIONS/DELETIONS Mr. Shevock moved for approval of the agenda, seconded by Mr. Hare and unanimously carried. Proposed Ordinance #2015-03 Amending Chapter 102 - Taxation, Article III - Realty Transfer Tax, Section 102-71 - Definitions; Article IV - Abatement of Real Estate Taxes, Section 102-113 - Qualifications; and Article V - Tax Credits for Historic Properties, Section 102-152 - Application Requirements and Section 102-153 - Application Review and Approval (Due to time constraints, this item was placed on the City Council agenda for consideration during their meeting scheduled for later in the evening.) Mrs. Ann Marie Townshend, Director of Planning and Community Development, advised members that proposed Ordinance #2015-03 would implement incentives that the City committed to through its Downtown Development District Application. She explained that the ordinance was related to the taxation section of the code and had three (3) components, as follows: 1) The City currently offers a transfer tax waiver for first-time homebuyers City-wide. Under the proposed ordinance, those who sell properties located in the area between Mary and Loockerman Streets and between Governors Avenue and West Street would also receive this transfer tax waiver if the properties are sold to someone who would be occupying the home as an owner. Mrs. Townshend indicated that the boundary included in the ordinance had been changed to coincide with the Downtown Development District boundary. 2) The City currently offers a tax waiver for owner-occupied houses located in the area between Mary and Loockerman Streets and between Governors Avenue and West Street, and this was expanded in the proposed ordinance to include the entire Downtown Development District. The ordinance would allow for a phase-in of taxes over five (5) years for an owner-occupied home. For the first year, no property taxes would be paid, for the second year 25% of the property taxes would be required, for the third year 50%, for the fourth year 75%, and in the fifth year the owner would begin paying the full tax. An owner who moves out of the district within this five (5) year period would be required to pay taxes back. Mrs. Townshend stated that this program had been “on the books” and staff had aligned it with the Downtown Development District boundaries.

LEGISLATIVE, FINANCE, AND ADMINISTRATION COMMITTEE MEETING OF FEBRUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 2 3) The City currently offers tax credits for renovation of historic properties based on the value of the work done to the exterior of the property, and review of tax credits by the Historic District Commission (HDC) is required. The proposed ordinance would allow for administrative approval of tax credits; however, if the tax credit relates to a project that would have to go to the HDC, the Commission would also be able to comment. This would allow for administrative approval of tax credits for projects such as the painting of a Victorian home, which would not normally come before the HDC. Mrs. Townshend explained that this would simplify and expedite the review process. Responding to Mr. Shevock as to whether a time frame would be associated with the high priority targeted area, Mrs. Townshend stated that no such time frame was included in the ordinance; however, the State’s Downtown Development District designation is a 10-year designation. If the high-targeted area were to shift within this 10-year time frame, it would be necessary to make a change in only one (1) location in the Dover Code, Appendix C - Downtown Redevelopment. Mr. Anderson moved to recommend adoption of Proposed Ordinance #2015-03, as recommended by staff, seconded by Mr. Shevock and unanimously carried. Proposed Ordinance #2015-04 Amending Appendix C - Downtown Redevelopment (Due to time constraints, this item was placed on the City Council agenda for consideration during their meeting scheduled for later in the evening.) Mrs. Ann Marie Townshend, Director of Planning and Community Development, stated that Proposed Ordinance #2015-04 would establish a high priority target area in the downtown area. She explained that the code currently has a defined target area for downtown redevelopment. Feedback received from members of Council regarding the City’s Downtown Development District Application indicated that Council did not want staff to reduce the area in which incentives were offered; however, the State wanted the City to have more incentives in the Development District than were available elsewhere in the City. Mrs. Townshend indicated that staff created a high priority target area and the Downtown Development District map was reflected in the language of the Proposed Ordinance. She explained the additional provisions in proposed Ordinance #2015-04, as follows: 1) The impact fee waiver currently applicable only to multi-story, mixed-use construction would no longer have to be a multi-story mixed use within the target. In this way, if a restaurant with many fixtures was opened, an impact fee waiver could be applied for a single-story building. In addition, if someone were to build five (5) houses on what was previously four (4) lots, they would receive credit for impact fees for prior structures but would receive a waiver for the fifth house.

LEGISLATIVE, FINANCE, AND ADMINISTRATION COMMITTEE MEETING OF FEBRUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 3 2) A three (3) year waiver of the business license fee would be offered for new businesses and businesses that relocate to the Downtown Development District. 3) A rebate of the buyer’s portion of the transfer tax would be offered within the high priority area for properties transferred after March 1, 2015 and receiving a certificate of occupancy within five (5) years of transfer. Mrs. Townshend indicated that this could apply to very large projects, noting that there had been discussion for many years about redeveloping the former Acme site on Governors Avenue. If a developer were to purchase this site and build a new building, they could receive a rebate of the buyer’s portion of the transfer tax when a certificate of occupancy is obtained. 4) Mrs. Townshend explained that this section of the Code currently requires applicants to commit to giving 10% of the value of that incentive to the Downtown Dover Partnership (DDP) in order to qualify for City incentives. After discussion with Mr. Gregg Moore, President, DDP, Mrs. Townshend stated that it had been agreed that it would be better to provide a full incentive rather than to require the 10% payment. Mrs. Townshend advised members that in addition to the above changes included in the proposed ordinance, the DDP had also agreed to offer grants up to $5,000 for architectural services for new businesses in the Downtown Development District. Responding to Mr. Hare, Mrs. Townshend stated that the incentives would apply to businesses opening in the Downtown Development District. Those who want to open large businesses elsewhere in Dover would not receive these incentives; however, there are other incentives available. She explained that redevelopment in the downtown area is difficult and more expensive than other areas because of the age of the infrastructure and buildings and the tightness of the lots. For this reason, the downtown area needs more help. The Governor budgeted and the legislature approved money for property owners to improve their properties. In exchange for this, local governments participating in the program were asked to provide added incentives in the area. Mrs. Townshend reminded members that this was previously discussed both by the Legislative, Finance, and Administration Committee and Council when the application was brought through the process before submitting it to the State. She noted that opportunities to improve incentives elsewhere could be discussed; however, this particular program was geared to the downtown area. Mr. Hare expressed his feeling that the City should provide incentives on a case-by-case basis to those willing to develop projects outside the target area, such as the former K-Mart building. Responding to Mr. Sudler regarding the location of the designated area, Mrs. Townshend explained that the rough boundaries of the Downtown Development District are as follows: the northeast boundary begins at the Mary Street/North Governors Avenue intersection, extending south down Governors Avenue to Fulton Street and east to State Street, extending south down State Street to Water Street, running west on Water Street and extending slightly south to bring in the Dover Transit Center, extending north along the railroad tracks, jutting west to include the eastern side of Lincoln Park, then continuing northward along the railroad tracks back to Mary Street.

LEGISLATIVE, FINANCE, AND ADMINISTRATION COMMITTEE MEETING OF FEBRUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 4 Mayor Christiansen commended Mrs. Townshend and Mr. Koenig for their efforts in this regard. He felt this tool would offer retail, mercantile, and residential establishments the opportunity to revitalize downtown. He stated that a lot of resources and attention would be focused in this area and it was hoped that these incentives and grants would stabilize the neighborhood and make it thrive, to the benefit of the entire City. Mr. Hare moved to recommend adoption of proposed Ordinance #2015-04, as recommended by staff, seconded by Mr. Anderson and unanimously carried. #2015-05 Fiscal Year 2015 Second Budget Amendment Mr. Scott Koenig, City Manager, advised members that the proposed budget amendment included adjustments to the Beginning Budget Balances for all funds now that the City’s audit had been completed. It also included any adjustments related to Council Actions in the budget year to date on changes in project budgets or operating items that were not included in the original budget. Mr. Koenig indicated that Council’s policy on transferring savings from prior year personnel expenses to the Pension or Other Post-Employment Benefit (OPEB) Trust Funds had also been included. The General Fund included a transfer to the Police Pension Fund of $100,000 and a transfer to the Civilian Pension Fund of $543,000, for a total transfer of $643,000. This $643,000 was the savings that was realized in personnel-related expenses in FY14 and was in accordance with Council’s prior policies. The Water/Sewer and Electric Funds did not have any personnel savings due to the change in pension accounting standards, so there were no additional contributions from any of the utility funds proposed. Additional adjustments were as follows: • Increases to Division budgets for vacation sell-back, retirement payout, and education assistance with a corresponding decrease to Other Employment Expenses across all applicable funds. Mr. Koenig advised members that this technique was used previously to keep individual department budgets from being inflated, rebated to vacation sellback, or even potentially retirement. • Transfer In from the Contingency Reserve for the final payment of the outstanding police grievance that had to be paid in FY15 with a corresponding adjustment to the Police budget. Mr. Koenig stated his belief that this amount was $50,000. • Increases in the following revenue items based on greater than planned receipts in Kent County Reciprocal Borrowing and Municipal Street Aid. • A transfer of $80,000 in capital project funds to the Parks and Recreation Reserve to set aside the budgeted funds for the White Oak Park improvements while awaiting the final needs of the recreation assessment. This was also in accordance with Council’s requests and actions related to the budget hearings held in 2014.

LEGISLATIVE, FINANCE, AND ADMINISTRATION COMMITTEE MEETING OF FEBRUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 5 Mr. Koenig explained that after the above adjustments, the General Fund Budget Balance would be $385,000 over the budgeted amount. It was staff’s recommendation to replenish the Contingency Reserve for the $300,000 used to settle the police grievances and to transfer the $85,000 to the Capital Asset Reserve in light of potential funding needs of the President's Counsel on Public/Private Partnerships and the Future of City Hall, Weyandt Hall, Former Dover Library and Other City Properties. He stated that these two (2) items had not been incorporated into the Budget Ordinance to allow for discussion. Mr. Koenig stated that if the recommendation were acted on favorably or modified, those modifications would be placed in the final version of Ordinance #2015-05. In regard to the payback of the Contingency Reserve Fund, Mr. Anderson asked if this would normally be accomplished over a couple of years and if it were proposed all at once because the money was available. Responding, Mr. Koenig stated that staff recommended replenishing the Contingency Reserve Fund because the money was available and the Fund was depleted by $250,000 in FY14 and by an additional $50,000 in FY15, for a total of $300,000. He explained that the $385,000 being discussed was actually FY14 money. Mr. Anderson inquired as to the reason for staff’s recommendation regarding the President's Counsel on Public/Private Partnerships and the Future of City Hall, Weyandt Hall, Former Dover Library and Other City Properties. Responding, Mr. Koenig stated that there was discussion at the President’s Counsel meeting held on February 4, 2015 regarding potentially hiring appraisers to appraise City buildings. He noted that at some point the assistance of architects would likely be needed to plan the space and evaluate which proposed alternative is the best to pursue. Mr. Koenig indicated that it was felt it would be best to place this money in a reserve until there is a clearer idea of the expenses. At that point, a request would come before Council to apply reserve funds to architectural or other related services. He noted that Council could also decide to apply these funds to a different project. Referring to total savings in personnel expenses in FY14 of $643,000, Mr. Slavin applauded those efforts and questioned how this occurred. Responding, Mr. Koenig stated that the savings was related to the timing of employees leaving and the hiring of new employees. He indicated that the personnel budget is approximately $30M in all funds and estimated that approximately $18M - $20M of this amount was in the General Fund. Mr. Slavin stated that some might say that the City overbudgets by more than $0.5M in personnel, which drives the tax rate. He indicated that he was not one (1) of these individuals but suggested that Mr. Koenig “prepare his defense” for this. Mr. Koenig stated that preparing the budget is not an exact science and agreed with Mr. Slavin that he would much rather be “in the black” in this area. Mr. Koenig explained that this figure includes salary and benefit savings, and in some cases staff may have budgeted for a retirement payout that did not happen. In response to Mr. Slavin regarding the policy level for the Contingency Reserve Fund, Mr. Koenig stated his belief that the whole fund was funded at $300,000; however, he did not have this number with him. At Mr. Slavin’s request, he agreed to check on this figure.

LEGISLATIVE, FINANCE, AND ADMINISTRATION COMMITTEE MEETING OF FEBRUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 6 Mr. Slavin requested clarification regarding the President's Counsel on Public/Private Partnerships and the Future of City Hall, Weyandt Hall, Former Dover Library and Other City Properties, since this committee had been called by this title and was also being referred to as a building committee. He questioned whether or not the committee was meeting in accordance with the Freedom of Information Act. Responding, Mrs. Traci McDowell, City Clerk, stated that this committee has Council and civilian members and adheres to all the requirements for public meeting notices and minutes. (City Clerk’s Office Note: City Council established an ad hoc Committee to study the future of City Hall, Weyandt Hall, and the Former Dover Public Library during their Regular meeting of November 12, 2013, as recommended by the Legislative, Finance, and Administration Committee. During the Regular Council meeting of August 25, 2014 the Committee members were appointed and, at the request of Council President Bonar, the Committee was called the President's Counsel on Public/Private Partnerships and the Future of City Hall, Weyandt Hall, Former Dover Library and Other City Properties.) Mr. Anderson moved to amend Ordinance #2015-05 to include the transfer of $300,000 from surplus funds into the Contingency Reserve Fund. The motion was seconded by Mr. Sudler. Mr. Hare asked if the $300,000 that could have been used to help offset a tax increase in FY16. Responding, Mr. Koenig stated that Council had the discretion on how they would like to use this $300,000, which amounted to just under $0.01 on the tax rate. Mr. Hare noted that these funds could have been used to hire additional police officers. Mr. Koenig stated that if there were no need to replenish the contingency fund with $300,000, these funds could have been used for any General Fund expense related to City of Dover operations, as requested by Council. Mr. Sudler inquired if the City had insurance to cover the $300,000 related to the grievances or if these funds had to come out of the City’s “pocket.” Mr. Koenig explained that the City has an insurance company; however, ultimately the feeling was that it was in the City’s best interest to settle the grievances immediately rather than allow its insurance company to defend any potential lawsuit that might come out of the disagreement. He stated that if the City had not acted and a suit had been filed against the City, the insurance company would have defended the City through that suit and the City would have had to pay its deductibles. Because the suit was settled, the insurance company’s answer was that they would have allowed the matter to go to a lawsuit and defended it that way. The motion to amend Ordinance #2015-05 to include the transfer of $300,000 from surplus funds into the Contingency Reserve Fund was unanimously carried. In regard to the remaining amount, Mr. Anderson expressed his belief that there was merit to putting studies in the works. He reminded members of previous discussion indicating that the City should remember the Parks and Recreation budget, which had been “squeezed”, when the City did have money that was over budget. He indicated that several items that had come up in regard to the Recreation Needs Assessment, including budget items related to design that would be beneficial over

LEGISLATIVE, FINANCE, AND ADMINISTRATION COMMITTEE MEETING OF FEBRUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 7 the next year. Mr. Anderson proposed that part of the funds go to the Parks and Recreation budget and part to the President's Counsel on Public/Private Partnerships and the Future of City Hall, Weyandt Hall, Former Dover Library and Other City Properties. Mr. Anderson moved to recommend amending Ordinance #2015-05 to allocate $60,000 of the remaining $85,000 to Capital Asset Reserve for the President's Counsel on Public/Private Partnerships and the Future of City Hall, Weyandt Hall, Former Dover Library and Other City Properties and $25,000 to the Parkland Reserve Fund, to be taken out of the Parkland Reserve Fund at a later date if approved by Council. The motion was seconded by Mr. Sudler. Mr. Sudler questioned how close the City was to the Dover Park plan of action and budget. Responding, Mrs. Ann Marie Townshend, Director of Planning and Community Development, stated her hope that, within the next month, staff would have a solid draft of the Recreation Needs Assessment document; however, highlights were provided to the Parks, Recreation, and Community Enhancement Committee during their meeting of January 12, 2015. She noted that staff was getting ready to prepare a Request for Proposals (RFP) for landscape architecture services for a plan for Dover Park based on the results of the Needs Assessment. Mr. Shevock noted that staff’s recommendation was to put funds to the Contingency Reserve Fund and then transfer $85,000 to the Capital Asset Reserve Fund. He questioned the reason for putting the $85,000 in the Capital Reserve Asset Fund. Responding, Mr. Koenig stated that Mrs. Mitchell and he agreed that after funding the Contingency Reserve, the initial recommendation from staff would be for capital needs versus operating budget needs. Staff had been trying very hard to have departments manage their operating budgets to levels authorized by Council, with minor departmental changes, because it was believed that extra money should go to capital needs. Mr. Shevock questioned where money would be drawn from for capital assets if the funds proposed were moved to these areas and an emergency arose. Responding, Mr. Koenig stated, for example, if there were a catastrophic failure of a building, the capital asset reserve would be used. If it were utility-related, it would come from the utility asset reserve. If there were a high operating expense that came “out of the blue”, staff would typically try to contain it in the operating budget, and if this were not possible, staff would ask Council for a transfer from the reserve into the operating budget. Mr. Koenig explained that the safeguard was to keep these funds out of general operating expenses and put them into the capital asset or other reserve so that staff would have to come to Council for specific authorization on how to use those funds. Assuming these funds were transferred and a catastrophic event occurred, Mr. Shevock questioned if the money could be pulled back or if they would become “free money” that would be spent once allocated. In response, Mr. Koenig explained that authorization would have to be obtained for funds to come back out of these accounts. He reassured members that if there were an emergency, staff would come before Council to request special authorization, even if it required a special meeting.

LEGISLATIVE, FINANCE, AND ADMINISTRATION COMMITTEE MEETING OF FEBRUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 8 Responding to Mr. Anderson, Mr. Koenig confirmed that the proposal was to put money into the reserve accounts where it would not be spent without Council authorization; therefore, funds would be reserved and not spent through Mr. Anderson’s proposed amendment. The motion to recommend amending Ordinance #2015-05 to allocate $60,000 of the remaining $85,000 to the Capital Asset Reserve for the President's Counsel on Public/Private Partnerships and the Future of City Hall, Weyandt Hall, Former Dover Library and Other City Properties and $25,000 to the Parkland Reserve Fund, to be taken out of the Parkland Reserve Fund at a later date if approved by Council, was unanimously carried. Mr. Anderson moved to recommend adoption of Ordinance #2015-05, as amended, (Attachment #1) seconded by Mr. Sudler and unanimously carried. Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) for the Fiscal Year Ending June 30, 2014 Chairman Slavin advised members that Mr. Scott Koenig, City Manager, would be presenting this item in the absence of Mrs. Donna Mitchell, Controller/Treasurer. Referring to the presentation entitled City of Dover Comprehensive Annual Financial Report - Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2014, Page 14 - General Fund Budget Highlights - Fiscal Year 2014, Mr. Koenig read the following information into the record: The Final General Fund Budget incorporated the following changes to the Original Budget: • The Budget Balance carried forward from the prior fiscal year was higher by $0.8 million than was projected. Receipts had a net increase of approximately $0.8 million. The most significant increases were related to intrafund service receipts related to the accounting change for pensions, transfer taxes, court of chancery fees, and building permits. The most significant reductions were police extra duty fees and civil traffic penalties. • Expenditures were revised to reflect an aggregate increase of $1.1 million. Increased employer contributions to the Police and Employee Pension funds accounted for most of the increased budget expense with a slight increased in the transfer to the capital project fund. The increases were offset by decreases in street lights, insurance, police pension grants and fire services. The net result of these changes was a $0.5 million increase in the revised budget balance over the Original Budget Balance (on a non-GAAP basis). General Fund actual revenues and other financing sources matched the final total revenues with a $23,000 positive variance. Mr. Koenig advised members that, in his opinion, the numbers were tracking very tightly. He indicated that financial controls are very tight on the City and the numbers in the CAFR reflect that.

LEGISLATIVE, FINANCE, AND ADMINISTRATION COMMITTEE MEETING OF FEBRUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 9 He requested that Mrs. Mitchell be given the opportunity at the Council level to do an appropriate presentation of the CAFR during the City Council meeting scheduled for February 23, 2015, because this is something that she and her staff had worked very diligently on over the last few months. Mr. Koenig requested that everyone read three (3) specific pages in the CAFR presentation before that time: Page 12 - Changes in Net Assets - Governmental Activities; Page 13 - Changes in Net Assets - Business Type Activities; and Page 14 - General Fund Budget Highlights - Fiscal Year 2014, since he felt this information summed up where the CAFR stands. In regard to the electric utility, Mr. Anderson stated that there were additional expenses in that account which came out of the Electric Stabilization Fund and asked Mr. Koenig to elaborate on the effect and how much was left in that fund. Responding, Mr. Koenig stated that he did not know the exact amount that was left in the fund; however, he noted that during the FY15 budget hearings, a gap of approximately $2.2M was anticipated in the General Fund. Staff recommended that this gap be filled through a tax increase. Through budget deliberation, Council altered that number slightly downward, and ultimately the gap was filled by a revised transfer from the Electric Fund to the General Fund. The proposed transfer was $8M; the revised transfer was $10M, and Mrs. Mitchell used that $10M as a baseline transfer in the five (5) year financial forecast, which accelerated the depletion of the Rate Stabilization Fund. Mr. Koenig indicated that staff was currently re-running those numbers as part of fiscal forecasting for the electric utility. The concern was that the $10M transfer will deplete the Rate Stabilization Fund rather quickly, and a rate increase may be discussed sooner than would have occurred had the transfer remained at $8M. He indicated that the net effect of that increased transfer is that it will likely cause the City to have to increase electric rates sooner than would have been necessary if the transfer had stayed at $8M, noting that there were a number of variables involved. Review of Training, Conference, and Travel Policy (Deferred on January 12, 2015 Due to Time Constraints) Mr. Scott Koenig, City Manager, reviewed the draft revised City of Dover Training, Conference, and Travel Policy. He advised members that this policy is reviewed by Mrs. Donna Mitchell, Controller/Treasurer on a regular basis. He noted that revisions to the policy were included in red font and were relatively minor changes. Staff recommended approval of the revised City of Dover Training, Conference, and Travel Policy (Attachment #2). Mr. Hare moved to recommend approval of staff’s recommendation, seconded by Mr. Anderson and unanimously carried. Review of Effectiveness of the Safe Communities Ordinance (Request of Councilman Anderson) Mrs. Ann Marie Townshend, Director of Planning and Community Development, advised members that the City’s Safe Communities Ordinance: 1) requires the City to provide landlord training whereby landlords would learn a number of things, such as better screening of tenants, the proper eviction process, fair housing, and drug identification, as taught by the Police Department. The idea is that

LEGISLATIVE, FINANCE, AND ADMINISTRATION COMMITTEE MEETING OF FEBRUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 10 when landlords go to the class, they would obtain a better sense of how to manage properties in a way that is a benefit and not a detriment to the community. Mrs. Townshend stated that the ordinance also requires that landlords and tenants enter into a lease addendum that must be presented to the City when utility services are established. In this addendum, tenants would acknowledge that if they, members of their family, guests, or others associated with them commit certain criminal acts within 500 feet of the property, they could go down the path for eviction. The ordinance states that if the problem continues, the City can force the landlord to initiate the eviction process. Mrs. Townshend stated that the ordinance had been in effect for approximately 1½ years and four (4) training sessions had been held. Each had been well attended and feedback had been positive. The City had not had to force any evictions. There had been a number of cases relating to problem properties where information had been received from the Police Department. She indicated that there had been a couple of times when letters had been sent notifying landlords they were reaching a point where they would have to evict. She explained that some landlords do not know that their tenant is a problem; therefore, that communication is helpful. Mrs. Townshend explained that she had discussed with Police Chief the need to ensure that officers file a report when responding to calls at properties that have had repeated problems, since this would provide something to go on if an eviction must be forced. She indicated a few areas could be “fine tuned”, noting a few cases where the lease addenda did not get to where they needed to be, so staff was improving the method of tracking. Mrs. Townshend indicated that some landlords had requested staff to send them a letter so that they now could tell their tenant that they were causing the landlord trouble with the City, reiterating the importance of having data from the Police Department. As time moves on and some of the “kinks” are worked out, she felt the City would continue to see benefit. Responding to Mr. Anderson in regard to whether there was a need to revise the ordinance, Mrs. Townshend expressed the need to give the ordinance a chance to work. She indicated the desire not to be so prohibitive that people would be evicted from their property for things that were not serious but also make sure that it gives “the hammer” to deal with problem cases. She noted that the ordinance may need to be re-examined in the future. Mr. Anderson questioned the outcome regarding a notable case in The Hamlet. Responding, Mrs. Townshend stated that the last tenant at this property left on their own accord. At this point, there had been so much interaction with this particular landlord, that she felt he was being more vigilant in dealing with his properties because the complaint volume had decreased. In response to Mr. Sudler regarding the relationship of the Safe Communities Ordinance and the State of Delaware landlord tenant code, Mrs. Townshend stated that the Safe Communities Ordinance does not affect the State Code because it does not supersede or attempt to supersede the eviction process. The Safe Communities Ordinance indicates that if certain infractions happen, the landlord has to initiate the process. If the landlord does not initiate the process, the rental permit would be suspended. The property would then be shut down and utilities terminated. Mrs. Townshend explained that unless there is a serious life safety issue, tenants are given 30 days to vacate. At one point, staff was concerned that landlords would try to use that in their favor to get around the process;

LEGISLATIVE, FINANCE, AND ADMINISTRATION COMMITTEE MEETING OF FEBRUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 11 however, if it comes to the point of suspending the rental permit, every Code violation in the property would need to be fixed and there is a $100 reinstatement fee. Mrs. Townshend felt that the few landlords who tried to “use” the City in that regard had figured out that it is not to their benefit. Automatic Escalator for Building-Related Permit Fees (Request of Councilman Anderson) During the meeting of August 11, 2014, members of the Legislative, Finance, and Administration Committee considered this matter and recommended that an automatic escalator for building-related permit fees be referred to staff with their full ability to revise in its entirety to develop recommendations based upon its intent. The Committee’s recommendation was approved by City Council during their meeting of August 25, 2014. Mrs. Ann Marie Townshend, Director of Planning and Community Development, advised members that building permit fees are based on the building construction valuation, and the City uses construction valuation tables that are issued through the International Code Council (ICC). The ICC updates these tables every six (6) months. Staff had been using the tables that were in place at the time of the ICC Code adoption, but had now determined that the August version for each year should be used. Mrs. Townshend stated that by virtue of using current construction values, there is an automatic escalator in building permit fees only, since there is a cost per square foot for these permits, depending on the type of construction. This negates the need to increase the building permit fee over time because, by virtue of the construction value going up, the fees should increase on their own. Mr. Anderson explained that by making an administrative change in the valuation, the City would be updating by using current valuation instead of the valuation being “stuck” in a particular year. Mrs. Townshend stated this is a more realistic approach and would allow consistency. If the construction value that an applicant puts on a building permit is assumed to be correct, the person who is more honest would pay a higher fee. This automatic escalator would add consistency and allow the City to adjust to changes in the construction cost. The HVAC, plumbing, and other building-related permits would not change because they are based on either BTU’s, number of fixtures, or similar things. Mr. Anderson indicated that he was satisfied with this approach. He was unsure if other changes were needed, but if so, they could go into the next resolution and the Committee could discuss this. Mr. Koenig stated that he had incorrectly told Mr. Slavin that the City was applying the escalator previously on an annualized basis. This had been discussed, but when checking the record, it was determined that the City adopted the 2009 building codes and put this schedule into place. Going forward, the building valuation published each year would be administratively put into place the August of each year building valuations that are published through the ICC valuations. Proposed Resolution No. 2015-01 - Dover Prospers Initiative (Economic Greening) (Request of Councilman Anderson) Mr. Anderson explained the purpose of Proposed Resolution No. 2015-01, noting that there is a lot of competition in the current environment for businesses, and a lot of opportunity that goes to places

LEGISLATIVE, FINANCE, AND ADMINISTRATION COMMITTEE MEETING OF FEBRUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 12 that are the most flexible, prepared, and have an efficient, streamlined approach. He felt that the City had done a tremendous amount to move in this direction and that staff is business friendly; however, out-of-state and micro business people can tend to get lost. Mr. Anderson advised members that a “one-stop shop” approach, where all needed information could be obtained in one (1) place, had worked successfully in other areas around the country but would take some work. He indicated that he had worked with staff and it was his belief that the City could get “80% of the way there,” and thanked Mrs. Ann Marie Townshend, Director of Planning and Community Development; Mr. Scott Koenig, City Manager; and Mr. Bill Neaton, Economic Development Manager, for their help. Mr. Anderson felt that the proposed resolution would allow access to all the information needed to open a business in the City of Dover in one (1) place, including a packet on the City’s website with contact information for people who will help. Mr. Anderson indicated this would show the City to be business friendly, which would: 1) help generate small and micro-business, and 2) help attract an occasional “home run” business when it is seen how efficient the City is. He noted this proposal would have no cost to the City, many aspects were already being developed, and staff was well on the way to implementing it. Mrs. Townshend indicated that staff had been working with the business community for a number of years in trying to address certain regulatory changes; however, it had been approximately five (5) or six (6) years since a series of forums, workshops, or focus groups had been held to meet with a broader cross-section of the regulated community to determine what the problems are. Referring to Section 2 of the proposed resolution, Mrs. Townshend explained that the Planning Department, City Manager’s Office, and Economic Development Office would work together to hold a series of focus groups with the business community, development community, and real estate community. Out of this, a “road map” would be developed for the next year whereby the City would look at re-evaluating regulations. For example, Mrs. Townshend explained that the City’s sign regulations had been a top priority and were rewritten, as were the commercial zone regulations. Once the industrial zones are reviewed, she indicated that staff would be finished with those pieces that had been identified, noting that other issues were emerging as the market changes. She felt that a fresh list could be developed of current issues and how they can be better addressed. Mr. Anderson expressed his desire to have a “sunset review” of regulations, based on the citizens’ input, to make sure that the City stays current. He felt that the provisions in the resolution regarding focus groups may provide a larger cross-section, as well as flexibility, since people involved would not have to commit to a particular time period. Mrs. Townshend stated that she suggested this approach because, depending on which set of regulations was being tackled, the people at the table may change. She stated that one (1) of the issues being discussed currently is parking requirements for restaurants, which were not working well. This would be a conversation with the real estate, development, and restaurant communities to make sure that it reflects what they are seeing. Mrs. Townshend advised members that working on different regulatory issues may involve a different “cast of characters” and the proposed approach would allow the City to be flexible to the needs of the community. Mr. Anderson noted that Mrs. Townshend had agreed a co-sponsor the resolution.

LEGISLATIVE, FINANCE, AND ADMINISTRATION COMMITTEE MEETING OF FEBRUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 13 Mr. Anderson moved to recommend adoption of Proposed Resolution No. 2015-01 (Attachment #3), seconded by Mr. Sudler and unanimously carried. Freedom to Worship Act (Request of Councilman Anderson) Mr. Anderson stated that originally in the City zoning, places of worship and places of meeting were allowed in almost every non-manufacturing zone. However, zoning had become more complicated over time with more commercial zones and a myriad of residential zones, and there were inconsistencies in the code in regard to places of meeting and places of worship. Mr. Anderson stated that he had heard a number of associated complaints, noting that one (1) related to the property at 870 Forest Street, formerly occupied by the Bennie Smith Funeral Home, which contains a chapel and was rented to a counselor. Meetings were held there when the counselor was the primary use and the church was the secondary use as it met all of the requirements; however, after meetings had been held there for two (2) years, they suddenly did not have the same success, which caused him concern. Mr. Anderson indicated that this particular sub-zone had left something out as fundamental as places of meeting and places of worship, which are just as valid as any other activity in the CA-1 Corridor Zone. He stated that he wanted to investigate ways to keep the tradition the City used to have of making sure that places of meeting are allowed wherever they are appropriate for public safety and meet the normal requirements. Mr. Anderson moved to recommend that the issue of making sure that places of meeting and places of worship are allowed wherever they are appropriate for public safety and meet the normal requirements be referred to staff. The motion was seconded by Mr. Hare and unanimously carried. Updates Certified Local Government Application Members were advised that in 1980, an amendment to the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966 established the Certified Local Government (CLG) program to involve local governments in national preservation efforts. Most states, including Delaware, created programs extending CLG status to local communities with a local historic preservation district and a historic preservation commission. The CLG program provides technical assistance to support historic preservation efforts and eligibility for federal Historic Preservation Funds. In addition, localities participating in the CLG program participate in the National Register nomination process for historic properties and are strongly considered for training and technical assistance from the State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO). The City of Dover, Delaware 2008 Comprehensive Plan included a recommendation within the Implementation Chapter (Chapter 15, page 179) to “Obtain Certified Local Government (CLG) through the National Park Service.” In November 2013, City Council instructed the Planning Office to compile the CLG application. After a vacancy was filled on the HDC in Summer 2014, staff was able to compile the information needed to complete the application. Providing the qualifications of Commission members is one (1) of the application requirements. The draft application is attached for review by the Committee and will be presented to the HDC for their review on January 15, 2015. If recommended by City Council, staff will submit the application to the SHPO, along with a letter from the Mayor. This letter will be drafted once the Historic District Commission has taken action

LEGISLATIVE, FINANCE, AND ADMINISTRATION COMMITTEE MEETING OF FEBRUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 14 on the application. Following the review of the CLG application, the City will enter into a certification agreement prepared by SHPO which outlines the local government responsibilities under the certification. Mrs. Ann Marie Townshend, Director of Planning and Community Development, explained that it had taken staff some time to put together the CLG application, which would open the City to being eligible for certain grants for historic preservation activities, noting that there were vacancies on the HDC which was now fully operational. Staff recommended that the application be approved and forwarded to the State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO), to be accompanied by a letter from the Mayor. Mr. Hare moved to recommend approval of staff’s recommendation, seconded by Mr. Shevock and unanimously carried. “Safe Whistles” National Recreation and Park Association Recommended Guidelines for Credentialing Volunteers (Background Screening for Youth Coaches and Sports Officials for All City Recreation Offerings) During the Legislative, Finance, and Administration Committee meeting held on September 9, 2013, members discussed the issue of background checks for Parks and Recreation volunteers working with youth and members recommended that staff, specifically Mrs. Ann Marie Townshend, Director of Planning and Community Development, and Mrs. Kim Hawkins, Human Resources Director, be directed to review the National Recreation and Park Association Recommended Guidelines to conduct an analysis and formulate a recommendation regarding the scope and depth of the background checks that should be required, the cost and how it would be addressed, the period of time the background check would remain valid, and some type of roll-out implementation strategy to be brought back to the Committee within one (1) month for their review and recommendation to City Council. City Council approved the Committee’s recommendation during their meeting held on September 23, 2013. During the Legislative Finance, and Administration Committee meeting held on November 12, 2013, the Committee recommended that background checks be performed for all Parks and Recreation volunteers and contractors, including officials, who will be working directly with youth, every three (3) years, and that staff implement a staggered approach that would require compliance by officials by a certain date in 2014. City Council approved the Committee’s recommendation during their meeting held on November 25, 2013. During the Legislative Finance, and Administration Committee meeting held on February 9, 2014, Mrs. Ann Marie Townshend, Director of Planning and Community Development, advised members that staff had developed a procedure and volunteer application form and that all volunteers involved in youth programming, primarily sports coaches, are run through a background check process, after obtaining their permission. Those who do not come through with a clean record are disqualified. Mrs. Townshend explained that the guidelines were reviewed with the Human Resources Department (HR) to make sure that the process is not inconsistent with City hiring processes and the new process is not significantly different from HR’s process. She noted that some people had been turned away.

LEGISLATIVE, FINANCE, AND ADMINISTRATION COMMITTEE MEETING OF FEBRUARY 9, 2015 PAGE 15 Referring to the Criminal Background Check Automatic Disqualifiers for Youth Sports Volunteers, Mr. Slavin suggested some rewording related to “Felonies - All Felony offenses other than violence or sex within the past 10 (ten) years,” stating that he could discuss this with Mrs. Townshend after the meeting. Responding to Mr. Hare, Mrs. Townshend stated that the process in place was working. In response to Mr. Shevock regarding how the application form was being protected since it contained sensitive information, Mrs. Townshend stated that forms were being kept in a locked cabinet at the Parks and Recreation Office, in the same way any personnel files are kept. Audits had been conducted in the past on identity theft and those types of things. Mayor Christiansen questioned why applications were reviewed every three (3) years, noting that he would feel more comfortable if they were reviewed yearly. Mrs. Townshend stated that background screening is performed on City employees only when they join the workforce; however, she stated volunteers could be brought through the process every year, noting that Little League and Pop Warner Leagues do this. Mayor Christiansen felt this would be in the best interest of the City, and Mrs. Townshend agreed. Responding to Mr. Hare, Mrs. Townshend stated that there is an expense to conducting the background check, which the City pays since they have difficulty getting coaches and asking them to pay the $35 to do this would cause more difficulty. In response to Mr. Hare, Mrs. Townshend estimated that approximately 50 background checks are done each year, and Mr. Hare noted a cost of close to $2,000 per year. Mayor Christiansen stated that if there were a three (3) year lapse and an incident occurred with a child, the City would be in the line of fire and incur a liability. Mrs. Townshend stated that no one in the City wanted to be in a position where a decision that was made adversely affected the life of a child. Mayor Christiansen respected Mr. Hare’s concern regarding the cost but felt that review every year would be appropriate. Mr. Shevock moved for adjournment, seconded by Mr. Sudler and unanimously carried. Meeting adjourned at 7:02 p.m. Timothy A.
