Item #2. SPECIAL CITY COUNCIL MEETING BUDGET REVIEW The Special City Council Meeting was held by video conference on June 1, 2021 at 6:00 p.m. with Council President Sudler presiding. Council members present via video or telephone were Mr. Anderson, Mr. Boggerty (arrived at 6:10 p.m.) Mr. Neil, Mr. Hare, Mrs. Arndt, Mr. Rocha, Mr. Taylor (arrived at 6:15 p.m.) and Mr. Lindell. Staff members present via video or telephone were Police Chief Johnson, Ms. Peddicord, Mr. Harline, Mr. Hugg, Mrs. Duca, Mr. Sylvester, Mr. Hamlett, Mr. Josefowski, Mrs. Hawkins, Mr. Eaton and Mrs. McDowell. ADOPTION OF AGENDA Mr. Neil moved for adoption of the agenda, seconded by Mr. Hare and carried by a unanimous roll call vote (Boggerty and Taylor absent). INTRODUCTION AND PRESENTATION OF FISCAL YEAR 2021 RECOMMENDED BUDGET AND HIGHLIGHTS OF OVER BUDGET Mr. Matthew Harline, Assistant City Manager, reviewed a presentation titled “FY 2021-2022 Proposed Budget with FY 22 - 26 Capital Improvement Program,” (Exhibit #1). Mr. Hare moved for Mr. Harline to give a quick overview of the budget and then allow Council to ask their questions. The motion failed for lack of a second. MAJOR FUND HIGHLIGHTS - GENERAL FUND Mr. Matthew Harline, Assistant City Manger, reviewed pages 7 - 38 of the “FY 2021-2022 Proposed Budget with FY 22 - 26 Capital Improvement Program.” Mr. Neil stated that if they wanted to get back to the current tax rate of 40 and a half cents, they were going to have to cut $2 million either in expenses or enhancements to bring in revenue. He asked if it would be possible to use money left over and if so, what would the tax rate be. Mr. Neil stated that they know some items like trucks need to be replaced and asked if they were to receive federal funds, not necessarily from the Recovery Act, but from Infrastructure, if passed by Congress. He asked if they could purchase those vehicles without having it in the current budget. Mr. Neil asked in terms of total enhancements that were proposed, if there were other enhancements that they could look at that would raise that amount so they could have money coming in. He noted that even though it would be a small amount, in combination with some of the delays, they may be able to stave off the total increase in the property tax. Responding to Mr. Neil, Mr. Harline stated that the current budget calls for a balance slightly over the 8% that is in the City policy and that it is a prudent reserve. He stated that 8% is about a month and a half worth of operating expenditures, so in the general fund there really is not left over money that he would recommend spending. Mr. Harline noted that, regarding additional revenue, they were in the process of doing a thorough comprehensive look at all of the fees and fines that the City Page 4

Paj 5

Item #2. SPECIAL COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 1 - 2, 2021 PAGE 2 assesses. He advised that it would be difficult to get anywhere near $2 million from all of the sources if they increased those fees substantially, but that they might be able to find another $50,000 to $100,000 based on preliminary results. Mr. Harline stated that in addition to the sanitation fees and business licenses, they were looking at raising the fines for false alarms for the fire department because they were already looking at increasing the fines to the police department of about $30,000 total and that enhancement has been included. Mr. Harline advised that some of the proposed increases included disconnect fees and most of those fees would go to the utility for which they are disconnected. He stated that those fees tend to fall hardest on those who are least able to pay so that is not in this proposal and fees for credit card use were going to cover the actual costs. Mr. Harline advised that they do not like to charge a premium for bad checks, but they will review those fees. Mr. Harline stated that they are going to look at enhancements for red light cameras and review their agreement for the School Resource Officers. They are also looking at expenses that are not budgeted possibly in police. They could come up in some programmatic things that Mr. Harline and Police Chief Thomas Johnson have talked about. Mr. Harline advised that they did not know exactly how the costs for the mental health professionals ride along program would come out, but there is an assumption that they will get state funding. Mr. Neil asked about delaying items like the trucks and buying them if they had grant money or from other sources, possibly federal or infrastructure funds. Responding, Mr. Harline stated that he did not know, but that what he read of the infrastructure bills was that most of it is for projects. He noted that he would look and see if it is for vehicles and equipment and that those are the items that could allow them to reduce the fee. Mr. Harline stated that he did not feel responsible providing a budget based on possible federal funds that might come through for an infrastructure bill. He noted that they are going to be using equipment that is getting out of date and spending money repairing items that need to replaced. Mr. Harline advised that if that is the desire of Council, he would make it work, but that was not his recommendation at this time. Responding to Mr. Rocha, Mr. Harline stated that the capital projects that they have selected for this year’s budget are located in the proposed budget book under Capital Investment Plan and that he would provide the ones that have been delayed as well. Responding to Mr. Rocha, Mr. Harline stated that the Information Technology (IT) position for a LAN Analyst was for six months. He advised that the assumption was that they hire them for six months into the year and defer costs somewhat until next year. Responding to Mr. Rocha regarding the City’s parks, Mr. Harline provided the following information: • They have the Dover Park improvements which include a building and a splash pad and $310,000 budgeted in the current year. They are going to carry those funds into the next year and add that to the $690,000. That is their best estimate of how much it would cost Page 5

Paj 6

Item #2. SPECIAL COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 1 - 2, 2021 PAGE 3 to do the building and splash pad. It is higher than they anticipated when they began developing the budget in January. • The skate park and dog park are budgeted in Fiscal Year 2023 and $800,000 budgeted for the Dover Park ADA Accessible playground. • They also knew they could not do all of the projects in one year, but with Council’s input they made the building a top priority and the splash pad is physically connected to that building. • If they were able to shift more money by using the American Recovery Project (ARP) money then they could put more into the Schutte Park skate park. Mr. Anderson, regarding creative cost shifting using the guidance of the ARP funds this year, stated that the ARP funds have the ability to be used for necessary older infrastructure. He stated that they could take about a half a million dollars of those funds and target it towards the older infrastructure. Mr. Anderson stated that they could use it to offset part of the stormwater portion of the general fund expense. He asked if they had calculated when about 50 staff members had to be off because of COVID. Mr. Anderson stated that they could recover their sick time and overtime that was required of other employees. He stated that he would email Mr. Harline the other ideas he had. Responding to Mr. Anderson regarding Tyler/Munis, Mr. Harline stated that the vast majority of the Munis costs are either covered directly or by transfers directly for Munis and that the vast majority of those funds are coming out of the electric fund, with a little from the water and wastewater funds. Responding to Mr. Anderson, Mr. Harline stated that much of the increase in streets is offset by state money. He advised that they are anticipating more money in Community Transportation Funds (CTF), but some of it is increased amount of transfer from the general fund. Mr. Hare asked how much money they would they save if they eliminated the North American Energy Services (NAES). Responding, Mr. Harline stated that he would get into that more the following day, but that it is about the operating of the plant and the lost revenue from the capacity in the first year is going to be fairly similar because they are going to have to pay for specific capacity. He noted that once the solar project comes online they are going to regain a lot of their capacity. Mr. Harline advised that they get credit for the physical plant or capacity that they own to generate electricity and McKee Run use to be a lot of that and they still have the VanSant Generating Station. He stated that the saved money in operations is going to be offset by a loss of capacity. Responding to Mr. Boggerty, Mr. Hare stated that there are about 100 to 150 fire alarms at Delaware State University (DSU) and a lot of those were attributed to the alarms going off in dorms. He noted that there are no contributions to the fire department from DSU or Wesley College. Mr. Hare stated that there were close to 100 alarms at Wesley College and Wilmington University had some, but not as many as the others. He advised that if they have a run fee that applies to everybody with the first two runs being free, then it could cut it down or they would start getting the revenue back to the fire department.

Item #2. SPECIAL COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 1 - 2, 2021 PAGE 4 Mr. Boggerty asked if it was permissible to charge safety fees on nonprofits. He asked how they encourage them to pay a fee or give a donation and asked what message they send to their nonprofits. Responding, Mr. Hare stated that the ones that came in and complained the most were the ones who were going to have a public safety fee of $50.00. He stated that Bay Health has stepped up and contributed and helped the fire company immensely. They have also helped the police department with the Police Athletic League (P.A.L.) with contributions. Mr. Sudler advised that the legal opinion was that federally they could not provide any fee to a nonprofit according to state and federal statutes. He noted that DSU has contributed in other ways, such as partnering and trying to help with economic development and helped the City through finding grants and suitable applicants for job positions. Mr. Anderson advised that there were ways to do it, but it was problematic. He noted that the run fee Mr. Hare noted would be permissible, but a fee for police services, which is a general tax function, would be hard to pass unless it was tied to a service like false alarms. Mr. Neil noted that if they had a public relations problem, they have some people who did PILOT (Payment in Lieu of Taxes) programs and, unless everybody who was in this program as it was originally presented would pay their money, they would actually lose money from the organizations that voluntarily paid the City a PILOT. He noted that there was a balancing factor and that it was bad publicity because they cannot apply it just in one segment. Mr. Anderson stated that since they have the co-chairs of the Joint Finance Committee for the first time that it would be wise for them to pen a letter. He noted that the state has $800 million surplus to increase the PILOT, which has not been done in decades. Mr. Anderson suggested adjusting the formula slightly, noting that $1 million is under inflation for the last 10 years. He noted that it would be wise for Council to formally send a letter requesting that. Mr. Sudler stated that is one of the main objectives they would like Mr. Anderson and Mrs. Arndt to look into as liaisons to Kent County and to make this a top priority in that initiative. Mr. Anderson stated that he wanted to touch base with Mrs. Arndt and see if they would have a draft for the next evening and then they make a motion so they could discuss it. Mr. Anderson moved that a letter be drafted now. Mr. Sudler asked if Mr. Anderson would amenable to get feedback from his co-liaison, Mrs. Arndt, to prepare a draft and bring it tomorrow. Mr. Anderson stated that Mrs. Arndt’s skills would be valued and noted that he would value Mr. Hare’s input as well. Mrs. Arndt asked if they were talking about the state property and the payment in lieu of taxes and not about issues specific to Kent County and realty transfer taxes. She noted that while they have been talking, she reached out to a legislator for information on the process. Mrs. Arndt stated that she was willing to pursue that and do some research. Mr. Sudler requested a moment of silence for those who have served the country and those who have lost their lives doing so. He stated that they greatly appreciate and value their dedication and commitment to the United States of America. Page 7

Item #2. SPECIAL COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 1 - 2, 2021 PAGE 5 Mr. Anderson moved to recess the meeting, seconded by Mr. Neil and unanimously carried. Meeting recessed at 8:13 p.m. TUESDAY, JUNE 2, 2021- 6:00 - 9:00 p.m. The Special Council Meeting - Budget Review reconvened on June 2, 2021 at 6:01 p.m. with Council President Sudler presiding. Council members present were Mr. Anderson, Mr. Boggerty, Mr. Neil, Mr. Hare, Mrs. Arndt, Mr. Rocha, Mr. Taylor, and Mr. Lindell. Council staff members present were Mr. Harline, Mr. Waddell and Mrs. McDowell. By unanimous consent, the meeting reconvened. Mr. Matt Harline, Assistant City Manager, reviewed a presentation titled “FY 2021-2022 Proposed Budget with FY 22 - 26 Capital Improvement Program,” (Exhibit #2). ELECTRIC FUND Mr. Matt Harline, Assistant City Manager, reviewed pages 19-28 of “FY 2021-2022 Proposed Budget with FY 22 - 26 Capital Improvement Program.” Mr. Harline advised that most of the 600 plus LED lights for phase one of the LED Streetlight project were installed and that there were about 80 left. Mr. Paul Waddell, Electric Director, noted that they would be there that week. Responding to Mr. Hare, Mr. Harline stated that for everything, the entire bill to the North American Energy Services (NAES) is about $6 million. He advised that if NAES were to get the contract to continue running the VanSant Generating Station, they have budgeted for the contractual services, based on some early models, $1.7 million, but that it was going to be less. Mr. Harline stated that when they were operating as an ancillary operation to the power plant and were on site there were some cost savings with the staff there. Responding to Mr. Hare, Mr. Harline stated that they have been working with the management at McKee Run and for NAES. He noted that some use to work for the City. Mr. Hare asked if there had been consideration of not putting a contract out there and letting those people that are running the operation now work for the City. He stated that if they were to take their salaries even with benefits, they were going to be under $480,000. Mr. Harline stated that a lot of the costs for operating the plant are environmental reporting, financial tracking and connecting to the PJM grid. He stated that they have looked at that possibility, but that is the cost to actually run that plant with all the different parts. He advised that they have built the costs for materials into that $1.7 million. The City and the Energy Authority (TEA) firmly believe that strategy and hiring out all the expertise they would need for all the other pieces are a small amount of costs to actually turning on and running the plant. Mr. Harline advised that is not going to be $480,000 to run the plant with the people who live in town. Mr. Hare stated that if NAES gets Page 8

Paj 9

Item #2. SPECIAL COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 1 - 2, 2021 PAGE 6 the contract, they would be making money off of it which they get through TEA. Responding to Mr. Hare, Mr. Harline stated that if NAES puts in a proposal that is above what the market will bear they would lose the contract. He stated that the only viable way to do this is to continue paying NAES or someone else. Mr. Harline advised that he has discussed the idea of the City running the VanSant Generation Station with the representatives of TEA and NAES. He stated that there are a number of different disciplines, environmental tests and reporting requirements that nobody on the City staff can train the NAES personnel to do. He stated that NAES has that expertise, along with other firms. He noted that they can do the onsite work that needs to be done to keep the plant functioning, but there are a lot of other pieces that are done offsite and that the City would have to purchase those costs. Mr. Harline advised that he spoke with Stacy Johnson from NAES, and their charge will be much more if they do not have the rest of the operation and would charge a premium to do it on a cafeteria basis, which would require the City to go out for another set of RFPs. He stated that having discussed that possibility directly with Ms. Arlene Newton and other members of the TEA staff, they strongly recommend against trying to pursue that course of action. Ms. Lori Peddicord, Controller/Treasurer, regarding the transfer to the general fund from the electric fund, stated that she thought the transfer should be $10 million instead of $11 million. She stated that those changes and the transfer could decrease their net income, which offsets some of the abilities for them to cover operations, capital costs and infrastructure. Ms. Peddicord advised that the higher that they increase that in any given year, based on the changes in the projections, is going to drive down the net income and decrease the cash. She noted that she wanted to make sure that everyone was aware that changing that variable does have an effect, and that it also could affect their bond ratings. Responding to Mr. Hare, Ms. Peddicord stated that she did not know how much excess money was in the electric fund. She stated that they have financial policies that they are suppose to follow that houses the reserves for particular programs, replacements, contingency funds, and capital asset replacements. Mr. Hare stated that if they were to transfer more, it was going to reduce the net profits, but they have the money in the fund to give a refund back to the electric rate users, nonprofits and the people that do not pay taxes. He stated that if it costs $100 million to run the City and with all of the funds they have, they bring in $140 million, then why are they raising taxes. Mr. Harline stated that the ordinance from last year has the amounts in each of the reserves. He noted that there are specific reserves for specific things, and it is over $20 million. Mr. Harline advised that they have $10 million that they carefully set aside for the deconstruction of the power plant with a very long range and thoughtful process. WATER FUND Mr. Matt Harline, Assistant City Manager, reviewed pages 5-11 of “”FY 2021-2022 Proposed Budget with FY 22 - 26 Capital Improvement Program.” Mr. Harline advised that they have completed the Water Master Plan Update, West Street, West Page 9

Paj 10

Item #2. SPECIAL COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 1 - 2, 2021 PAGE 7 Alley and Ross Street replacement of water lines. He stated that they have started with the contract for painting and other maintenance on the water towers. Mr. Harline advised that in FY22, they are looking at improving resiliency of the water treatment plant with a purchase of a mobile generator. Mr. Jason Lyon, Water and Wastewater Director, advised that it is not a wastewater treatment plant, it is a pump station. WASTEWATER FUND Mr. Matt Harline, Assistant City Manager, reviewed pages 12-18 of “FY 2021-2022 Proposed Budget with FY 22 - 26 Capital Improvement Program.” Mr. Harline advised that there was a slight decrease in the transfers and that there were expenses of $271,000, about 3.7% compared to the FY21 budget. He noted that they were expecting the service fees to have a 5.4% increase due to rate increase. Responding to Mr. Harline, Mr. Jason Lyon, Water and Wastewater Director, advised that the groundwater inflow adjustment would be going up this year with the other rates. Responding to Mr. Anderson, Mr. Harline advised that in constructing the budget, they were very conservative in trying to allocate any resources from the American Rescue Plan (ARP) fund. He noted that he did not disagree with Mr. Anderson’s assessment on almost everything he said that it could possibly be budgeted for. Mr. Harline noted that the $700,000 for the Innovative Readiness Training (IRT) project was never a City budgeted item, but it is a resource loss to the City. He noted that Mr. Taylor challenged them to look for a full $1.9 million worth of savings which he had, but was not ready, but he could share that. He noted that they could work with the 2% directed at the increases for public safety. Mr. Harline stated that there are some other places, particularly in the Water/Wastewater system, where they could find supportable uses for the ARP funds that they are anticipating. He noted that there are different ways that they could approach this by trying to come up with an ARP budget between now and June 14th for original adoption, for original presentation on June 28th , or they could work on a list of items, particularly in Water/Wastewater, and then some in general fund, then some other needs and wants in the community that Mr. Anderson mentioned. Mr. Harline stated that he had the cuts that he could propose from Mr. Taylor’s request. He noted that since they originally put the budget together in April he met with the department heads and shaved about $860,000 in expenditures, before they showed Council the budget that he originally asked for a 5.5% property tax increase. He advised that they could put together a budget with cuts, additional defensible revenue, easily defensible revenue enhancements through ARP funds, and then create a second list of things that if they could make a good argument for it, that they would also fund with ARP funds. Mr. Harline recommended having a primary list where they are comfortable, that they can count those revenues for those projects, put that into the ordinance that they present and then come back with a supplemental budget when they do a budget amendment to close out FY21 and carry forward into FY22. Mr. Harline reviewed a spreadsheet depicting the cuts proposed by staff and Council (Exhibit #3). He advised that he did not think they could cut without a significant burden and that the total costs could add back $194,000 of the spending and not raise the property tax. Page 10

Paj 11

Item #2. SPECIAL COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 1 - 2, 2021 PAGE 8 Mr. Harline stated that they budgeted $200,000 for moving expenses for the City Manager, which also could have been used for any search this year and they usually budget $200,000 in legal expenses. He noted that they usually end up transferring that to projects that come up during the year, so they could probably cut some of that. Mr. Harline noted that there was a proposed program for a small amount of money to be paid to people if they referred somebody successfully for employment with the City, $10,000 was set aside for that. There is a proposal along with the rest of the Segal study for pay for performance, and the former City Manager Randy Robertson suggested $40,000 for that in the budget. He stated that they could remove $20,000 and still have the opportunity to address some type of a pay for performance incentives in FY22 or remove the entire $20,000. Mr. Harline advised that there were suggestions in the Segal study for advancing up in the range rather than just the base moving up , they based it on years in their current position and it’s market, or where the study recommends that the range for that job should be. He noted that there are also some positions which would probably be reclassified and that he did not want to get rid of all of that money, because there are some legitimate suggestions. Mr. Harline stated that based on the discussion with Council and with Segal, he would want to leave some money in for some of those positions. Mr. Harline stated that there is $100,000 in the Mayor’s budget for economic development, but if they cut out 25%, that would save $25,000. He noted that they were increasing the payment to the fire department, if they cut that from a $3,500 increase to only $2,500 increase, they would save $1,000. He noted that they budgeted $120,000 annually, even though the contract for life safety for the ambulance contract is $100,000 a year. The additional $20,000 was in case there were calls that outside vendors were required to respond to. He noted that so far, they had never needed the full $20,000 or anywhere near it, so they could cut that total money budgeted from $120,000 to $110,000 and free up $10,000 and still cover their $100,000 contract with St. Francis to provide annual ambulance service within the City of Dover. Mr. Harline stated that they have two trucks for code enforcement that could survive another year, one is replacing an old Crown Vic. He noted that they have budgeted $250,00 for demolition and the most that they have ever used is around $150,000, so they could cut that. Mr. Harline stated that he spoke with Police Chief Thomas Johnson, and he was forthcoming and trying to make offers that would help them reach the $1.9 million cut. He noted that if Chief Johnson deferred hiring four officers for six months it could save $199,000. He stated that they have to keep their staffing level up because they have accepted the COPS grant. Mr. Harline advised that they could save $199,000 by diverting that by a half a season, and they could probably survive with eight Tahoe SUVs instead of nine, six of those would go to patrol directly. Mr. Harline mentioned eliminating the Information Technology (IT) LAN analysts completely, instead of having one for the last six months. He noted that delaying the facilities craftsperson for six months would save $29,500; however, the department would prefer that the position not be removed. Mr. Harline advised that there is currently a crew of three and if they are doing a task that requires spotting another worker they cannot have two crews. If they have four workers, they can split to two crews and double their effectiveness. He noted that the department would prefer to have Page 11

Paj 12

Item #2. SPECIAL COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 1 - 2, 2021 PAGE 9 the position for the full year, but at least for half the year. Mr. Harline noted that they could defer the $380,000 Street and Alley Project to Townsend Boulevard, Project Kent, North and South Alley, and save $818,000. He advised that if they do not buy the asphalt hotbox it would save $43,000. Mr. Harline noted that if they do not get rid of a 2000 backhoe, they would save $125,000. If they did not get rid of a 2001 dump truck, they would save $156,000. There is a yard waste truck that could be pushed back a year, although it is heavily used. They have $300,000 plus for a vac truck and it is possible that they could save an estimated $150,000 by buying a used truck. Mr. Harline noted that they do not use it daily, but frequently, and that is for eliminating blockages in the stormwater. Mr. Harline noted that in Parks and Recreation, there is a old van that Ms. Sherwanda Rachal, Recreation Program Specialist, drives and it is functional so they could delay that for $31,000. He noted that there is always something else they could cut, but those are the items that would have less of a debilitating effect on City operations. Mr. Harline advised that he mentioned over $2,100,000 worth of cuts. Responding to Mr. Lindell, Mr. Harline stated that all of those items they would be put off until next year. He stated that there were a couple of items that are choices and that they would be dealing with the same problem next year. Mr. Harline stated that all of those vehicles will have to be replaced and they bought no police cruisers last year. He noted that Mr. Casey Wallace, Mechanic, and his staff, baby the vehicles and have saved hundreds of thousands of dollars in maintenance and successfully deferred some expenses, but it does not last forever. They have to replace those items and do the road maintenance. Mr. Lindell asked if they had done a cost estimate to show taxpayers how much they were hemorrhaging from keeping these outdated vehicles around and the lack of cost effectiveness. Responding, Mr. Harline sated that Mr. Mike Hamlett, Central Services Director, could put something together. Mr. Lindell stated that he was talking about man hours with manufacturing their own parts. He noted that there has to be a point where it becomes counterproductive. Responding, Mr. Harline stated that information was a part of the analysis that Mr. Hamlett does every year. Responding to Mr. Lindell, Mr. Harline stated that they have reduced the number of staff members in the whole Central Services department, primarily in fleet maintenance and in building maintenance. He noted that fleet maintenance was steady, but the building maintenance is where they have really cut people. Responding to Mr. Rocha, Mr. Harline stated that the vehicles that needed to be replaced were costing the City more. He noted that there was also lost of time having the vehicles in service. Mr. Harline advised that the cost of repair is where they were getting past the point of diminishing return based on Mr. Hamlett’s assessment. Responding to Mr. Rocha, Mr. Harline stated that some of the vehicles were coming up on 20 years old. Mr. Rocha recommended finding money in the budget for vehicles that they could not longer get parts for. Page 12

Item #2. SPECIAL COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 1 - 2, 2021 PAGE 10 Mr. Anderson moved to authorize sending the draft letter regarding the PILOT with the right to have the signers and Staff make technical corrections in formatting. The motion was seconded by Mr. Taylor. Mr. Lindell requested clarification on the motion. Mrs. Arndt stated that the letter was requesting the opportunity to revisit or to evaluate an increase in the percentage that Dover receives from the state. She noted that there is also a Senate bill being considered that is in committee and that bill does not increase the percentage for Dover. It proposes the addition of Newark to the program and for Newark to receive a percentage of their property tax from the state. Mrs. Arndt stated that there is an opportunity to work with the legislators to make changes to that bill to increase Dover's percentage. She noted that the letter is going to two of their local legislators, seeking a one-time increase to Dover. Mr. Sudler asked how could they incorporate that or integrate that into what they currently have as a long-term opportunity versus a short-term. He asked if they could pass this motion here or add that to the motion as an amendment. Responding, Mrs. Arndt stated that the letter as written does make mention of re-evaluating the percentage that is granted and that it is okay to move forward. Mr. Sudler asked Mr. Anderson and Mrs. Arndt to draft the recommendations and a second letter expressing the long-term opportunity through the body that would not only be able to recognize that but also authorize it. Mr. Anderson moved to authorize sending the draft letter regarding the PILOT with the right to have the signers and Staff make technical corrections in formatting. The motion was seconded by Mr. Taylor and unanimously carried. Mr. Neil stated that Mr. Harline brought up a contingency plan in terms of what would happen if they received the additional federal money, which they do not know if it is coming or the amount. Mr. Harline asked if they wanted him to bring back the cuts that have been described to reduce the potential tax increase to two cents or less, using discretion with whatever it is to get to that amount. He stated that he received guidance from one Councilman specifically saying to keep the officers, LAN analyst, crafts persons, the asphalt hotbox and the dump truck. He stated that he could work with staff to see if there are some trade-offs within there, and then come back with a package of things where they believe that there could be ARP money that would be either revenue offsets in the general fund or projects in the water and wastewater fund to come up with a secondary plan for additional expenditures. Mr. Harline stated that he would prefer to have that ready for Council either on the 14th or 15th. Responding to Mr. Sudler, Mr. Harline advised that last year the full amount for the economic development fund was $100,000 in the Mayor’s budget. He noted that it is used for a variety of different economic development and enhancement activities. Mr. Harline stated that in FY20, $90,866 of the $100,000 was spent. Mr. Sudler noted that while the Segal Study was a good study, there was no evidence-based observations done to confirm what duties were being done versus what was actually being done. He Page 13

Item #2. SPECIAL COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 1 - 2, 2021 PAGE 11 noted that there is a discrepancy in providing or increasing individuals pay based off of assessment with no evidence-based observations. Mr. Sudler recommended that entire budget be forfeited or cut. Mr. Neil moved to adjourn the meeting, seconded by Mr. Anderson. Responding to Mr. Lindell, Mr. Sudler stated that they were adjourning and waiting for another meeting with Mr. Harline to update Council in a couple of weeks on the supplemental budget. Mr. Harline stated that he would have an update on June 15th during the Council Committee of the Whole/Legislative, Finance, and Administration Committee. Mr. Neil moved to adjourn the meeting, seconded by Mr. Anderson and unanimously carried. Meeting adjourned at 8:38 p.m. TRACI A.

(Tax Parcel: ED-00-076.05-01-01.00-000; Planning Reference: AX–21-02; Council District: 1) ADOPTED: JUNE 14, 2021 PUBLIC HEARING/BOARD OF ASSESSMENT APPEALS EXEMPTION REPORT - MAY 19, 2021 - INNUS PARKER - 239 GRINDING WHEEL DRIVE Mrs. Cheryl Bundek, City Assessor, provided background information regarding the appeal of the denial of the request for a Disabled Citizen Reduction for Ms. Innus Parker, 239 Grinding Wheel Drive. Mrs. Bundek advised that Ms. Parker’s request was denied because she was not able to submit an award letter from the Social Security Administration stating that she is currently receiving disability benefits. Responding to Mr. Anderson, Mrs. Bundek stated that Ms. Parker did supply long-term disability documents through Verizon and it states that she must go to the Social Security Administration. Responding to Mr. Neil, Mrs. Bundek advised that if Ms. Parker were to provide the award letter from the Social Security Administration, they would be able to give her the exemption for this year. She noted that normally their deadline is May 31st, but they allow for some seniors and those who are disabled to submit as long as it is before the City does their calculations, which would not be until after the Council meeting of June 28th. Once they do the tax calculations, then it becomes adjustments and refunds. Responding to Mr. Taylor, Mrs. Bundek stated that they do the exemptions based on a yearly tax bill, so if Ms. Parker were to qualify by July 10th, if Council would allow it, they can go back to the July 1st billing, but they would not go retroactive for years.

Item #4. CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 14, 2021 PAGE 5 Mr. Taylor disclosed that Ms. Parker is a family member of his and he would not be voting on this item. Mr. Rocha disclosed that he had been in communication with Ms. Parker. He noted that in her current situation, Kent County does waive or give a discount for tax purposes without social security. He stated that the City’s ordinance has social security written in it, but that it might be an item they could review. Council President Sudler declared the public hearing open. Ms. Innus Parker, 239 Grinding Wheel Drive, advised that she has been on long-term disability since 2008. She asked if Council would reconsider a clause for allowing her to get the deduction based on her current health situation. Ms. Parker noted that she has documentation from her primary care physician that states she is disabled. Mr. Rocha asked if they made a change to the ordinance, what type of impact would it have as far as the City’s tax base for defendants that are in Ms. Parker’s condition. Mrs. Bundek stated that they could contact Kent County and get a list of all of their applicants, but she was not sure if they put them in a category on why they are disabled. Mr. Rocha stated that he did not realize that Kent County gave discounts to anyone less than 100%. Mrs. Bundek noted that she believed the person could have a doctor’s note saying they were a 100% disabled and have a veteran’s disability. Responding to Mrs. Arndt, Ms. Parker stated that her hearing with Social Security was scheduled for the following afternoon. Ms. Parker noted that Social Security usually sends out a letter, but did not think that they would tell her right away because it is with a judge. Responding to Mr. Lindell, Mrs. Bundek stated that every year the citizens have to come in and provide an updated award letter or they will not be approved. She noted that as long as it is an award letter from Social Security, they would be approved. Responding to Mr. Lindell, Mrs. Bundek stated that they could hold off, pending the result of the hearing. She advised that if Council would direct her to wait and if Ms. Parker receives the letter by a certain date they can make an adjustment to her tax bill. It is usually about $200 depending on what the tax rate is and it takes $50,000 off the value of her home. She noted that if Ms. Parker makes the payment, if it does not happen before July 31st, they can make the refund as long as Council directs it. Mr. Lindell moved to delay the consideration for a month until they receive that letter. The motion failed for the lack of a second. Mrs. Bundek asked for clarification that if Ms. Parker did not provide the award letter, then it would be denied and would not be brought up until next year. Mr. Lindell stated that if Ms. Parker gets the letter they could handle it at another meeting. Mrs. Bundek stated that if Council wants it to come back to another meeting, she would not be available after the next meeting in June. Page 88

Item #4. CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 14, 2021 PAGE 6 Mr. Neil suggested that the motion be for sending it back for six months until January 1, 2022. Mr. Hare stated that they did not need to go back on the item and to give it to Ms. Parker. He stated that if she does not have the letter by January 1st, then they have to revisit it. There being no one else present wishing to speak, Council President Sudler declared the public hearing closed. Mr. Neil moved to the delay the decision until January 1, 2022 on the case to permit the receipt of a social security decision. The motion was seconded by Mr. Lindell. Mr. Anderson stated that if Ms. Parker does not get the letter by January 31st, then she will get a tax bill, but if she provides that letter, then they will make an adjustment and give a refund. Mr. Neil moved to the delay the decision until January 1, 2022 on the case to permit the receipt of a social security decision. The motion was seconded by Mr. Lindell and carried with Mr. Taylor abstaining.

Item #4. CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 14, 2021 PAGE 7 Adoption of Consent Agenda Central Delaware Habitat for Humanity Locations: 133 S Queen St & 127 S Queens Mr. Stonesifer moved to adopt the consent agenda which was seconded by Mr. Burns. Motion carried 4-0 Farm Land Exemptions Farm Lands LP Locations: Exempt Request: 43 AC Wyoming Mill Road $995,900 BACKGROUND AND ANALYSIS A request for farmland exemption was submitted to the Assessor's Office. The property was purchased October 15, 2013 and is currently used to grow vegetables. RECOMMENDED ACTION: Recommend that the request for exemption be reviewed. Representing Farm Lands LP was McKenzie Peet. Ms. Peet told the board that her clients are currently taxed on the farm land on Wyoming Mill Road and are asking for a farmland exemption. She provided pictures showing that the land is currently farmed. The Assessor pointed out that another piece of property located within the City of Dover city limits and owned by Fam Land LP was already classified as tax exempt. After being asked by Mr. Stonesifer what the staff recommendation is, Mrs. Bundek explained that the land falls within the guidelines of Farmland and should therefore be approved. Mr. Junge was asked by Chairman Garfinkel what his legal opinion was. Mr. Junge said that he sees no issue with the application since the land was farmed. Mr. Burns questioned why this piece of land currently taxed and not exempt? Mrs. Bundek explained that the owner had not applied for an exemption with the City until now and was also currently taxed by the county, even though the company had owned this parcel since 2013. Mrs. Bundek also pointed out that the exemption Page 90

Item #4. CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 14, 2021 PAGE 8 should be retro-active to July 2020. Mr. Burns made the motion to approve the exemption to be retro-active to 2020.

Motion carried 4-0 Mrs. Bundek informed the appellant, that the City Council has the final decision and that a letter with the date of the Council Hearing would be mailed.

Exempt Requests Central Delaware Housing Collaborative Locations: Exempt Request 731 W Division Street $ 112,000 801 W Division Street $ 296,200 BACKGROUND AND ANALYSIS An exemption request for the above referenced properties was submitted to the Assessor's Office. Both properties were purchased August 2019 and will be used as a Woman's Homeless Shelter. RECOMMENDED ACTION: Recommend that the request for exemption be reviewed. Present for the hearing were Ms. Bradshaw, Chair and Mr. Merchant, Director. Ms. Bradshaw started by telling the board that the Central Delaware Housing Collaborative was an initiative started by the Mayors Blue Ribbon committee to end the homelessness in the City of Dover. The organization wanted to help homeless woman without children, because Dover already had two existing homeless shelters for woman with children. The organization acquired the property located at 801 W Division Street and opened its doors to homeless woman in 2020. The goal of the organization is to prepare the woman for permanent housing, as some Page 91

Item #4. CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 14, 2021 PAGE 9 can leave the shelter and move into permanent housing, others are not and are then transitioned form the shelter into the transition home located at 731 W Division Street and then into permanent housing. Chairman Garfinkel asked what the properties were used for in the past. Mr. Merchant explained that they were owned by an organization called "Aid in Dover" and were used as a shelter for youth. The Assessor told the board that the property used to be exempt from property taxes but were put back on the tax roll during the Exemption Audit because they were no longer occupied. Mr. Junge asked when the organization was formed? Ms. Bradshaw explained that it was formed in 2018 and was started by the Mayors initiative to end the homelessness in Dover. Mr. Burns was wondering how many women were able to be housed by the shelter. Mr. Bradshaw said that the shelter can house 16 women but due to COVID restriction there were currently only 10 women in the shelter. Mr. Merchant explained that the women remain under case management for a year after they leave the shelter. Mr. Junge explained that the organization falls under a charitable organization, which means that it is optional for the Board to grant the exemption. Mr. Stonesifer made the motion to approve both properties for the exemption. Mr. Burns seconded the motion. Motion carried 4-0. Mrs. Bundek informed the appellant, that the City Council has the final decision and that a letter with the date of the Council Hearing would be mailed. By consent agenda, Mr. Hare moved for approval of the Board of Assessment Appeals’ recommendation, seconded by Mr. Neil and carried by a unanimous roll call vote (Boggerty, Rocha, and Taylor absent).

Item #4. CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 14, 2021 PAGE 10 St. Nicholas Ukrainian Orthodox Church Location Exempt Request 870 Forest Street $699,700 BACKGROUND AND ANALYSIS An exemption request was submitted to the Assessor's Office. This property was purchased by the Church in November of 2017. Per the application, this is the only Orthodox Church in Kent County and is also home to the only Gambler's Anonymous Group outside of New Castle County. If this exemption is approved, it is requested that the exemption be retro-active to July 2020 billing. RECOMMENDED ACTION: Recommend that the request for exemption be reviewed. Father Steven Hutnick, pastor at St. Nicholas Ukrainian Orthodox Church was present for the hearing. He told the board that the church purchased the property in 2017. He also mentioned that the church is home to the only Gamblers' Anonymous Group outside New Castle County. Father Hutnick said that due to the pandemic the church has not been able to have any fundraisers. Mrs. Bundek advised the board that this exempt request would also be retro-active to the tax billing of 2020. Mr. Stonesifer pointed out that there are two buildings on the property and asked what the building in the back of the property was used for? Father Hutnick told the board that the building is currently vacant but had been used as a daycare in the past. He pointed out that the church was currently looking to rent the building out to another daycare provider for approximately $3000 a month. Mr. Hutnick explained that the building in the back of the property was separate from the church and that he was only requesting the exemption for the church. The Assessor pointed out that the two buildings were located on one parcel. Chairman Garfinkel asked the board members if they should request the financial statements from the church to make sure they were not making a profit on the future rental property. Mr. Junge believes that the portion of the property used for income should not be exempt. Page 93

Paj 94

Item #4. CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 14, 2021 PAGE 11 Mr. Stonesifer agreed, he pointed out that the board had similar cases come before them and they had decided that in such cases the portion of the property generating income would not be exempt from property taxes. The board agreed unanimously that the percentage of the building generating income needed to be separated from the church. When asked by the board members what the best way would be to divide the two parcels, Mrs. Bundek said that she could take the portion of the building and part of the land around the building and create a separate parcel for taxing purposes. This would be done after the hearing, at which time she would notify the board with the taxable square footage of the broken-out portion of the property. Mr. Junge was concerned and suggested for the appellant to get an appraisal done that would show the values of the parcel split, because the City may not be able to defend the new values if this was done by the Assessor, should this go to court. Father Hutnick assured that the church would not take this matter to the courts. He asked the board to come up with a fair solution. Mrs. Bundek was concerned about the time it would take for the appellant to get an appraisal done. Chairman Garfinkel proposed to keep the hearing open until an appraisal can be provided. Father Hutnick mentioned that both the church and the daycare would be using the parking lot. Mr. Stonesifer explained that those concerns would be addressed by the appraisal. Mrs. Bundek told the board that the appraisal should only consist of the break down of the property and not the value, since the city has already assessed the property. Mr. Stonesifer disagreed, in his opinion the appraisal should include the appraised amount for the buildings. The Assessor suggested breaking out the building only because the church also uses the parking lot as mentioned by the Father. Chairman Garfinkel asked Mrs. Bundek if she could break out the building and the land. Page 94

Paj 95

Item #4. CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 14, 2021 PAGE 12 Mrs. Bundek explained that the software would allow her to create a separate parcel for tax purposes only. Father Hutnick agreed with the way the Assessor proposed to calculate the taxes for the daycare. Mr. Stonesifer moved to tax the square footage of the daycare and the land beneath it and for the rest of the property to be exempt based on the Assessor's calculations to be retro-active to the tax year 2020. Mr. Burns seconded the motion. Mrs. Bundek informed the appellant, that the City Council has the final decision and that a certified letter with the date of the Council Hearing would be mailed. Motion carried 4-0. By consent agenda, Mr. Hare moved for approval of the Board of Assessment Appeals’ recommendation, seconded by Mr. Neil and carried by a unanimous roll call vote (Boggerty, Rocha, and Taylor absent). Bayhealth Medical Center Inc. Location Exempt Request 30 Old Rudnick Road $1,969,700 BACKGROUND AND ANALYSIS An exemption request was submitted to the Assessor's Office This property was purchased in November 2019 and is being used by Bayheatlh's internal billing, finance and administrative staff. RECOMMENDED ACTION: Recommend that the request for exemption be reviewed. Mr. Tretina, Chief Financial Officer for Bayhealth Medical Center Inc. was present for the hearing. He told the board that this building was used for internal billing, finance and administrative purposes. He explained that the organization was exempt from Federal Income Tax under section 501( c ) 3 of the internal Revenue Service. Mr. Burns recused himself from voting on this exempt request. Page 95

Paj 96

Item #4. CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 14, 2021 PAGE 13 Mr. Garfinkel asked the Assessor what her recommendations were? The Assessor said that since the building is used by the Bayhealth organization and was not rented to any other organization, she would recommend the exemption be approved. Mr. Stonesifer made the motion to approve the exemption which was seconded by Mr. Davis. Mrs. Bundek informed the appellant, that the City Council has the final decision and that a certified letter with the date of the Council Hearing would be mailed. Motion carried 3-0 By consent agenda, Mr. Hare moved for approval of the Board of Assessment Appeals’ recommendation, seconded by Mr. Neil and carried by a unanimous roll call vote (Boggerty, Rocha, and Taylor absent). Delaware State University Foundation Location Exempt Request 225 Walker Road $578,600 Walker Road $ 4,900 Walker Road $ 800 BACKGROUND AND ANALYSIS An exemption request was submitted to the Assessor's Office. These properties were purchased on March 01, 2021 by the Delaware State University Foundation and will be used as the Presidents House and Conference Center for the University. Richard Forsten, Attorney and Henrietta Savage, controller were present for the hearing. Mr. Forsten started by telling the board that the current President's House for the University needed renovation, therefore, the University purchased the property located at 225 Walker Road, which consists of 3 parcels all together. Two of the parcels are slivers of land located along side of the driveway leading up to the house. The University uses the first floor of the current President's house for seminars, meetings, fund raising and is using the second floor as the President's residence. The plan for the new President's house at 225 Walker Road is to be the same. Mr. Davis explained that the two small parcels were part of the drive way which was also leading to two other residence.

Item #4. CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 14, 2021 PAGE 14 Mr. Stonesifer asked if the organization was going to charge the other properties any maintenance fees. Mr. Forsten said that the organization was not planning on charging a fee, due to the staff and time it would take to bill the fees. Mr. Stonesifer made the motion to approve the exempt request, which was seconded by Mr. Davis. Chairman Garfinkle asked what the relationship was between the two organization. Ms. Savage explained that Del State University owns Delaware State University Foundation and that the Delaware State University Foundation was used to raise funds for the University. She told that board that the property was paid for by the Foundation through donations. Motion carried 4-0 By consent agenda, Mr. Hare moved for approval of the Board of Assessment Appeals’ recommendation, seconded by Mr. Neil and carried by a unanimous roll call vote (Boggerty, Rocha, and Taylor absent). Disabled Citizen Reduction Appeal Parker Innus Location Reduction Request 239 Grinding Wheel Road $50,000 BACKGROUND AND ANALYSIS An appeal was submitted to the Assessor's Office. Ms. Parker submitted application to be considered for the "Disabled Citizen Tax Reduction". Her request was denied because Ms. Parker was not able to submit an "Award Letter" from the Social Security Office, stating that she is currently receiving disability benefits, as requested on the "Disabled Citizen Property Tax Reduction Form" provided by the City of Dover Assessor's Office and per our City ordinance (Sec 102-184). RECOMMENDED ACTION: Recommend that the request for exemption be reviewed. Mr. Parker was present for the hearing. She told the board that she has been on long term disability with her previous employer and is no longer able to work. Page 97

Paj 98

Item #4. CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 14, 2021 PAGE 15 The appellant explained that in her opinion the disability requirement for Long Term Disability mirror the requirement for Social Security disability. She explained that she went though a series of doctor's exams and evaluations to be awarded Long Term Disability. Ms. Parker asked why people that are not listed disabled through the Social Security Administration were not able to receive the property tax reduction. She told the board that she was able to get the disability reduction with the county and asked if the board would be willing to give her the reduction for the City of Dover taxes with the Long-Term Disability she was receiving. Chairman Garfinkel asked Ms. Parker if she had applied for disability through Social Security, she told him that she was scheduled for a hearing in June. Chairman Garfinkel asked if she had ever received an award letter from the Social Security Administration. Mr. Parker told him that she had not received an award letter from the Social Security Administration but does have a note from her doctor. Chairman Garfinkel pointed out that the city code requires an award letter from the Social Security Administration to be able to receive the reduction. He pointed out that only City Council can approve changes to the city code after Ms. Parker asked whom she should talk to get the requirement changed and to present her case. Chairman Garfinkel suggested Ms. Parker start by meeting with the Chair for the Legislative & Finance Committee. Mrs. Bundek explained that in 2008 an Ad-Hoc committee was formed to look into a property tax reduction for the disabled, because the City was only granting reductions to Seniors. She told the board that the committee consisted of one councilman and several members of the community. This committee recommended to council that only citizens with a 100% disability through the Social Security Administration would be able to apply for the reduction. Mrs. Bundek told Ms. Parker that this was the reason she had not been able to qualify for the reduction, that her office must go by what the code states. She also explained that the county had different qualifications than the city. Mr. Junge agreed that the law is the law and that the Assessor's office had to go by what the law said. Ms. Parker explained that she was under the impression, that by coming before the Board of Assessment Appeals, she could appeal the Assessor's decision to deny her application. Page 98

Item #4. CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 14, 2021 PAGE 16 Mrs. Bundek explained that going before the board would be her only way for her to appeal the Assessor's decision and that the board would make recommendations to Council. Mr. Stonesifer made the motion to deny the appeal, which was seconded by Mr. Davis. Motion carried 4-0. Mrs. Bundek informed the appellant, that the City Council has the final decision and that a certified letter with the date of the Council Hearing would be mailed. The meeting was adjourned at 11:00 A.M. A Public Hearing was held at the beginning of the City Council meeting to consider the appeal of the denial of the request for a disabled citizen reduction at which time the decision was delayed until January 1, 2022 on the case to permit the receipt of a social security decision. By consent agenda, Mr. Hare moved for acceptance of the Board of Assessment Appeals Report, seconded by Mr. Neil and carried by a unanimous roll call vote (Boggerty, Rocha, and Taylor absent). COUNCIL COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE REPORT - MAY 25, 2021 The Council Committee of the Whole Meeting was held by video conference on May 25, 2021 at 6:00 p.m., with Council President Sudler presiding.

Item #4. CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 14, 2021 PAGE 17 Responding to Mr. Neil, Mr. Harline stated that there were no ARP funds included in the utility accounts but that there may be an opportunity to use some of the funds for this if it could relate to clean drinking water and infrastructure improvements. Responding to Mayor Christiansen, Mr. Lyon stated that there had been an emergency repair at Lincoln Park but the project was completed before the road was re-paved about two years ago. He stated that Water/Wastewater had repaired about two hundred feet of sewer pipe that had collapsed at that location. Responding to Mayor Christiansen, Mr. Lyon stated that the Denny’s Road project had been budgeted in Fiscal Year 2021 and he believed the approximate cost was $3.2 to $3.4 million. He noted that they were considering a 1 million gallon tank to increase pressures in that area, as well as potential capacity for future development. Responding to Mayor Christiansen, Mr. Lyon stated that the projects known as Stonebrook East and West were built and currently had capacity. Responding to Mr. Harline, Mr. Lyon stated that through the half point of the Fiscal Year, Dover had received two times as much rain as the previous year, which had caused a delta. He stated that the City could decrease the groundwater fee if it could get everything tightened up which would mean cheaper rates for constituents. Mr. Neil moved for adjournment of the Utility Committee meeting, seconded by Mr. Taylor and unanimously carried. Meeting adjourned at 6:31 p.m. LEGISLATIVE, FINANCE, AND ADMINISTRATION COMMITTEE The Legislative, Finance, and Administration Committee met with Chairman Anderson presiding. Adoption of Agenda Mr. Neil moved for adoption of the agenda, seconded by Mr. Taylor and unanimously carried. Evaluation of Bids - Fiscal Year 2021 Street and Alley Program Ms. Sharon Duca, Public Works Director, reviewed the background and analysis regarding the Fiscal Year 2021 Street and Alley Program. Staff recommended awarding the contract to Grassbuster’s Landscaping, for the City of Dover FY 2021 Street and Alley Program, Bid #21-0034PW, for the amount of $713,294. Responding to Mr. Neil, Ms. Duca stated that based on Public Work’s current Page 100

Paj 101

Item #4. CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 14, 2021 PAGE 18 evaluation, the sections in question would not involve any tree work and Grassbuster’s Landscaping had done the 2019 street program and was qualified to do concrete and asphalt work. Responding to Mr. Shevock, Ms. Duca stated that Public Works had received seven bids in total for the project. She stated that some of the bids were close in range but there was a range of almost $300,000 between the bids overall. Responding to Councilwoman Arndt, Ms. Duca stated that the problem with North Bradford Street was that the trees were impacting the roadway in certain areas, so it would need a more detailed review to see if paving would impact a future design of North Bradford in regards to preserving the trees. Responding to Mr. Sudler, Ms. Duca stated that Public Works had not moved forward on any action with Conwell Street but that they could investigate the matter further to come up with a plan. She stated that Raymond Street was supposed to be extended as part of a proposed development which was being analyzed through that development for its dedication to the City. Responding to Mr. Sudler, Ms. Duca stated that she believed the development would be apartments and the proposed access is through Mishoe and Raymond Street. Responding to Mr. Sudler, Ms. Duca stated that she was referring to a new development behind Mishoe Towers. She stated that Raymond Street extended down to the railroad tracks and there was another road or paper street that extended north into the property in the back which is where access is planned. Responding to Mr. Boggerty, Ms. Duca stated that the procurement manager ensures that the invitation to bid is sent out to minority and women owned businesses. She stated that in terms of Dover business there was one bid but it was about $300,000 more than the low bid. Ms. Duca stated that the City does not ask for information regarding the diversity or makeup of a company. Mr. Anderson stated that minority businesses are able to submit that kind of information which would give them about a 3% preference in the bid. Responding to Mr. Boggerty, Ms. Duca stated that the incentive was included in the bid package. Responding to Mr. Lindell, Ms. Duca stated that in addition to looking at road ratings, Public Works was also doing road repairs following sewer main work. She stated that it would take approximately one year after that work had been done and settled to repair the roadway. Ms. Duca stated that they were also dealing with roads with extreme maintenance issues where the amount of material being used on maintenance made the road repair a priority. She stated that they would be Page 101

Paj 102

Item #4. CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 14, 2021 PAGE 19 reevaluating the road ratings in the near future to view all roads as equal rather than based upon traffic that was involved on the roadway. Mrs. Arndt stated that both she and Mr. Neil had received concerns from constituents specific to the North Bradford project. She noted that the North Bradford Street residents were unaware of the tree removal project. Mrs. Arndt advised that the street scape project on South Bradford Street was well received due to the door to door interactions and workshop at the library to make the residents aware of which trees would be impacted. She suggested that a similar process be conducted for the North Bradford Street residents. Responding to Mr. Anderson, Ms. Duca stated that since the project came in under budget she would like to save some funds in case there was an overage, but they also have the ability, based on the way the bid and purchasing policy were written to increase it by 25% if they wanted to add additional streets. She stated that there was also the possibility that they would need some of the project to do some engineering design with some of the street program in the future. Ms. Duca stated that it would stay in holding for street related projects or needs. Mr. Sudler moved that Council instruct Ms. Duca to move forward with an investigation in regards to Conwell Street as to how to get the road repaired and/or to get it dedicated to the City through the County as soon as possible. The motion was seconded by Mr. Rocha and unanimously carried. By consent agenda, Mr. Hare moved for approval of the Committees’ recommendation, seconded by Mr. Neil and carried by a unanimous roll call vote (Boggerty, Rocha, and Taylor absent). Mr. Neil moved to recommend approval of staff’s recommendation to award the contract to Grassbuster’s Landscaping, for the City of Dover FY 2021 Street and Alley Program. The motion was seconded by Mr. Rocha and unanimously carried. By consent agenda, Mr. Hare moved for approval of the Committees’ recommendation, seconded by Mr. Neil and carried by a unanimous roll call vote (Boggerty, Rocha, and Taylor absent). Evaluation of Bids - North Bradford Street Tree Removal Ms. Sharon Duca, Public Works Director, reviewed the background and analysis regarding the evaluation of bids for the North Bradford Street Tree Removal. Staff recommended awarding the contract to Asplundh Tree Expert, LLC, for the City of Dover North Bradford Street Tree Removal, Bid #21-0035PW, for the amount of $122,015.80. Page 102

Paj 103

Item #4. CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 14, 2021 PAGE 20 Responding to Mayor Christiansen, Ms. Duca stated that one of the big issues with this project was making the street ADA compliant. Responding to Mr. Taylor, Ms. Duca stated that the tree replacement was evaluated by City staff and there were six different species selected because of the amount of space available on Bradford Street between the curb and sidewalk. She advised that it was also proposed that they be planted with root deflectors to help them flourish in the future and avoid future issues with ADA compliance. Ms. Duca noted that the selected trees would be shown to the public as the options available for the tree replacements and would most likely be planted in the fall season because it was the best time for planting new trees to help them establish. Responding to Mr. Neil, Ms. Duca stated that the project could be delayed; however, they would need to determine how much longer the contractor that currently had the Fiscal Year 2020 street program would be able to maintain their prices. She advised that even if it was not within the time frame, projects could be rescheduled into a different year to allow more time for public input and possibly additional design. Mrs. Arndt moved to refer the North Bradford Street tree removal project back to staff for recommendations on public engagement and design improvements and move in line with the South Bradford Street project. The motion was seconded by Mr. Sudler and unanimously carried. By consent agenda, Mr. Hare moved for approval of the Committees’ recommendation, seconded by Mr. Neil and carried by a unanimous roll call vote (Boggerty, Rocha, and Taylor absent). Review of General Fund Fees for the Fiscal Year 2021-22 Budget Mr. Matt Harline, Assistant City Manager, reviewed the background and analysis for the General Fund Fees for the Fiscal Year 2021-22 Budget. Staff recommended directing Staff to include rate increases in the FY 2021-22 Proposed Budget. Responding to Mr. Boggerty, Mr. Harline stated that there were an average of 318 police false alarms within the City in Fiscal Year 2019-20. Mayor Christiansen asked that staff consider increasing the fines for malfunctioning and automatic fire alarms on behalf of the Fire Department. Responding to Mr. Contant, Mr. Harline stated that the projected shortfall for Fiscal year 2022 would be about $450,000. Responding to Mr. Contant, Mr. Harline stated that the City had never tried to make this a full enterprise fund before, meaning they had never set the rates at a level to cover all of the costs, which is what they were attempting now. He noted that the last Page 103

Paj 104

Item #4. CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 14, 2021 PAGE 21 time the fees were increased were in Fiscal Year 2017-18. Mr. Harline advised that by 2023 the City would take in more money than the cost to provide the service. Responding to Mr. Anderson, Mr. Harline, referring to the Proposed Sanitation Rates, stated that the City could hold the fees for the 300 gallon service rather than lowering them and raising them again in the future. He advised that they were intentionally bringing the mobile home rate even with the residential rate. Ms. Duca stated that the largest cost overall was the tipping fee for the waste. She advised that parts of commercial services do not receive all of the same services as the residential. Ms. Duca explained that they were trying to get more equity in terms of the actual services received as well as the volume of waste received from different types of customers. Mr. Neil moved to recommend approval of staff’s recommendation of the proposed sanitation rates except for the proposed decrease for Fiscal Year 2022 for the 300 gallon service rates, which should remain at the Fiscal Year 2021 rate. The motion was seconded by Mr. Shevock and unanimously carried. By consent agenda, Mr. Hare moved for approval of the Committees’ recommendation, seconded by Mr. Neil and carried by a unanimous roll call vote (Boggerty, Rocha, and Taylor absent). Mr. Neil moved for adjournment of the Legislative, Finance and Administration Committee meeting, seconded by Mr. Shevock and unanimously carried.

Review of Bike Friendly Community Status Mrs. Lisa Chase reviewed the application process for renewing the City of Dover’s Bronze Bike Friendly Community Status. Responding to Mr. Sudler, Mrs. Chase stated that the City was looking to retain its Bronze status. She advised that it would be unrealistic to try to achieve Silver status at this time but that may be a possibility in four more years. Responding to Mr. Lindell, Mrs. Chase stated that the cost to complete the application would be between $750 and $1,000. Mayor Christiansen stated that the application would be covered by the Parks and Recreation budget or the City Manager’s budget. Mr. Neil moved to cover the cost of the application for the bike-friendly community status from the Parks and Recreation budget up to $1,000. The motion was seconded by Mr. Anderson and unanimously carried. By consent agenda, Mr. Hare moved for approval of the Committees’ recommendation, seconded by Mr. Neil and carried by a unanimous roll call vote ( Boggerty, Rocha, and Taylor absent). Discussion - Update on a Mobile Command Centre and Substation Mayor Christiansen reviewed his research into other communities utilizing standing substations as well as mobile command posts.

Item #4. CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 14, 2021 PAGE 23 Mr. Neil stated that he felt the mobile substation would not need to have a large police sign on it due to the fact that it could be used for many things in addition to community policing. Responding to Mr. Anderson, Chief Johnson stated that the vehicle would have a police presence, probably more than one, at all times. Responding to Mr. Rocha, Chief Johnson stated that they envision a lot of options and different services would be provided by the mobile substation. Mr. Taylor shared photos of a building available for lease for a potential police substation. Mr. Neil moved for adjournment of the Safety Advisory and Transportation Committee meeting, seconded by Mr. Rocha and unanimously carried.

By unanimous consent Resolution No. 2021-16 was adopted: COUNCIL RESOLUTION NO. 2021-16 A RESOLUTION TO APPLY FOR FY 2022 CONGRESSIONALLY DIRECTED SPENDING PROCESS FOR OUTDOOR WIRELESS CAMERA NETWORK - DOVER POLICE DEPARTMENT WHEREAS, to improve public safety throughout the city, the City of Dover has invested heavily in community policing resources, public works personnel, and technologies to improve the delivery of health and safety services. The city has determined that additional help is needed to create both the reality and perception of adequate health and safety so that Dover can realize its potential; and WHEREAS, to make the City of Dover a safer and more efficient community and thus a very attractive location for residency, business and tourism, the City plans to implement a comprehensive outdoor wireless camera network throughout the city; and WHEREAS, studies have shown in other cities that have wireless camera networks throughout strategic locations, the reports of criminal activity have decreased, as the cameras act as effective deterrents to potential criminal activity; and WHEREAS, the camera package will include a total of forty camera clusters with 360-degree view. The first twenty will be located in community park areas, and twenty more will be located in other "at-risk" locations throughout the city; and WHEREAS, the City's Police Department desires to implement a vendor supplied enhancement that provides access to cooperating public and private video source points. This process could include corporate partners, private residences, and other governmental camera locations throughout the city to bring additional system capability. This expanded network of camera locations will help identify demands for city services and help the Dover Police Department detect criminal activity more quickly; and WHEREAS, the wireless camera locations throughout the City of Dover will provide real-time situational awareness to city officials charged with providing critical services. This group includes, but is not limited to: Public Works, Parks, Police, Electric and Sanitation. The city's public parks are especially vulnerable, as they are disproportionately visited by children and seniors for both recreation and exercise; and Page 109

Paj 110

Item #4. CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 14, 2021 PAGE 27 WHEREAS, the Senate Appropriations Committee through a Fiscal Year 2022 Congressionally Directed Spending Request process, has made available funding for which the City of Dover and its Police Department can apply to aid in potentially funding this security equipment, which furthers the City's commitment to make Dover as safe as possible for its citizens and visitors, and help the city realize its full potential. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Mayor and Council of the City of Dover, Delaware, that the City Manager or his designee be authorized to submit a Fiscal Year 2022 Congressionally Directed Spending Request Application for the Police Department's Outdoor Wireless Camera Network. ADOPTED: JUNE 14, 2021 FIRST READING - PROPOSED ORDINANCE #2021-15 Council President Sudler reminded the public that copies of the proposed ordinance were available on the City's website at www.cityofdover.com under "Government," or by contacting the City Clerk's Office at 736-7008 or cityclerk@dover.de.us. Final action by Council on the proposed ordinance will take place during the Council Meeting of June 28, 2021. Mr. Matthew Harline, Interim City Manager, advised that the budget was originally proposed at $161,540,000 and it was a significant increase, largely due to capital increases over the previous year’s budget. He stated that they have cut $1.5 million to get down to a $0.02 property tax increase that would allow them to pass a balanced budget. Mr. Lindell requested a list of all the cuts that were being made. He expressed his concerns regarding deferring maintenance. Mr. Lindell noted that the large transfer they received should go to one-time expenses and replacing some of the outdated items to be more cost-efficient. Mr. Harline stated that he could get that list. Mr. Anderson stated that the tax increase should not happen because of the time that can be bought while they deal with the structural issues. He noted that there may need to be a tax increase in the future to make sure they cover public safety or there may not. Mr. Anderson stated that they will not know until they have the chance to see how things play out. He noted that he did not think it was a good thing to put more of a burden upon them this particular year. Mr. Anderson moved to refer Proposed Ordinance #2021-15 to the Legislative, Finance, and Administration Committee meeting scheduled for June 15, 2021. The motion was seconded by Mr. Lindell and unanimously carried. In accordance with Section 1-9 of the Dover Code, Council acknowledged the First Reading of the proposed Ordinance as read by the City Clerk, by title only, as follows: Ordinance #2021-15 Fiscal Year 2021/2022 City of Dover Budget Ordinances Page 110

KEVIN QUINN – ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT ADMINISTRATION – DISCUSS SPECIAL ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITIES Kevin Quinn and Matthew Suchodolski from the Economic Development Administration (EDA) gave a PowerPoint presentation please see Attachment 1. Matthew Suchodolski states his appreciation for time tonight. The Delaware State University Center very important project funding requested in 2011. 2021 EDA was able to feature Delaware State University this past summer coordinated outreach with National Association of Development Organizations (NADO) as a historically black college and University were able demonstrate the good work the students of Economic Development and Business programming do and can do.

Economic Development Meeting of April 13, 2021 PAGE 2 Item #5. Development Certification. The alignment with Delaware State can not be overlooked they were one of 11 universities throughout the nation that were featured. Matthew Suchodolski states Councilman Anderson had early questions relative to Dover Air Force Base for Department of Defense programming. Outreached to Douglas Edward Brown whom shared notice of funding opportunities that will be apparent this fiscal year. Matthew Suchodolski will share that information via email. Councilman Anderson asks when it comes to the Covid Grants and opportunity zones would something like money for small business revolving loan fund (RLF) would that qualify for Covid funding. Kevin Quinn state the RLF granted to the state will cover all three counties, as well as three additional RLFs one per each county. The City of Dover could start RLF specifically for Dover, but they cannot cross, business cannot get funding from multiple RLFs. Councilman Anderson next question is who handles destination funds? Kevin Quinn states he is not familiar with these funds. Matthew Suchodolski state under American Recovery Plan the congressional appropriation speaks to a certain percentage of that appropriation for EDA to be for travel, tourism, and outdoor recreation. There will be funds just do not have terms of engagement yet. Mayor Christiansen welcomes Mr. Randy Robertson our new City Manager Diane Laird, she and Lisa have been working on grant request through USDA that was submitted on March 31 for a revolving loan fund. It is nice to know that we may be able to look for more additional funding. Would EDA funding be available for Master Planning Downtown. Kevin Quinn said yes please send him a proposal for RLF also that is not duplicating efforts from other RLF in Delaware. Also, yes the EDA helps with master planning and feasibility studies would be happy to discuss further down the road and off line. They will assist with sewer, roads, outdated infrastructure, and attracting business that will hire. Mr. Randy Robertson asks Mr. Hugg is this same planning process we spoke a week ago with Ms. Parkowski or is it different. Dave Hugg states it is the same notion. Mr. Robertson asks if this is the same RFP conceptually and Dave Hugg confirmed. Dave Hugg asks if infrastructure funding would apply if City is interested in developing or redevelop municipal complex example a new City Hall. Kevin Quinn states not it is not it has be in regards to job creation. Example when he was in Tennessee that brought in Volkswagen, they had an area of undeveloped land. They gave them a grant to clear land, redo rail lines, water and sewer. That is more classic EDA Public Works for funding. Dave asks if underutilized unused farm land as a future employment zone linked to air force base those would be eligible, and Mr. Kevin Quinn stated yes. Page 143

Lisa asks if there is a funding cap on these grants. Kevin says yes and no for example if you ask for 20 million for an RLF you must bring it down. You have to be realistic and have match. Lisa asks if it will be a one to one match, Kevin says yes match makes your application more competitive. Councilman Anderson, the hospital expanded and other job opportunities, but the water sewer piping would need to expand would EDA give match for it. Kevin Quinn states yes that is what EDA does and that would be competitive under Public Works. Councilman Anderson would be enhancing with smart technology to bring more people in and getting competitive grants with Verizon 5g broadband and electric cars. Kevin Quinn says yes that would qualify. Dave Hugg asks if funds from American Rescue Plan be able to use as match. Kevin Quinn says the guidelines for that money has not come out, yet he would have to check with his legal team. Mr. Suchodolski states their lawyers are currently looking at that and reaching out to treasury. CITY OF DOVER PLANNING UPDATE GIVEN BY DAVE HUGG Dave Hugg advises we took advantage and submitted seven projects through Congressional Authorization Procreations Process some would qualify for EDA funding mostly infrastructure projects. Also, submitted four projects to Representative Blunt Rochester for community projects including two planning projects if we cannot get funded otherwise. Waiting for guidelines from US Treasury of American Rescue Plan should be on or around May 10. MAYORS ANNOUNCMENT Next meeting will have a guest speaker thanks to Councilman Anderson will give insight on new directions we can go.

Item #6. COUNCIL COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE The Council Committee of the Whole Meeting was held by video conference on June 15, 2021 at 6:00 p.m., with Council President Sudler presiding. Members of Council present via video or telephone were Mr. Anderson, Mr. Boggerty, Mr. Neil, Mr. Hare, Mrs. Arndt, Mr. Rocha, Mr. Taylor, and Mr. Lindell. Civilian members present for their Committee meetings were Mr. Contant and Mr. Shevock (Legislative, Finance, and Administration). LEGISLATIVE, FINANCE, AND ADMINISTRATION COMMITTEE The Legislative, Finance, and Administration Committee met with Chairman Anderson presiding. Adoption of Agenda Mr. Anderson requested the agenda be amended by moving Item# 6 - Presentation - Downtown Dover Partnership (DDP) Master Plan to be considered first. Mr. Sudler moved for adoption of the agenda as amended, seconded by Mr. Neil and unanimously carried. Presentation - Downtown Dover Partnership (DDP) Master Plan (Diane Laird, Executive Director, DDP) Ms. Diane Laird, Executive Director, DDP, reviewed the Downtown Dover Partnership Master Plan presentation. Responding to Mr. Anderson, Ms. Laird stated that considering the current workforce, the potential workforce gain from DSU locating downtown would be a key factor in a successful outcome, not only for entrepreneurial types that want to open small businesses, but all for other professional businesses that may arise. Mr. Neil suggested that the Downtown Dover Partnership consider including the Riverwalk previously proposed by Mr. Taylor as a part of the plan. Responding to Mr. Taylor, Ms. Laird stated that they had not sought funding from private industry or a public private collaborative. She stated that she tried to keep things condensed while looking at the plans but there was no reason not to consider private sources or public private sources in addition to the non-profit sources if they need the funding. Ms. Laird stated that it was something she would consider. Responding to Mr. Taylor, Ms. Laird stated that Delaware State University would be engaged in the visioning, planning, and exploration of investment in how the campus would engage with the whole master plan. She stated that how their involvement in terms of funding correlated to the rest of the community was worth exploring. Responding to Mr. Sudler, Ms. Laird stated that part of the plan should be assessing where a campus of social services could be located or if it should be spread out. Page 174

Item #6. COUNCIL COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE MEETING OF JUNE 15, 2021 PAGE 2 Evaluation of Bids - Fiscal Year 2021B Street and Alley Program (Sharon Duca, Public Works Director) Ms. Sharon Duca, Public Works Director, reviewed the background and analysis regarding the evaluation of bids for the Fiscal Year 2021B Street and Alley Program. Staff recommended awarding the contract to Grassbuster’s Landscaping Company, Inc. for the City of Dover Fiscal Year 2021B Street and Alley Program, Bid #21-0039PW, for the amount of $381,083. Responding to Mr. Boggerty, Ms. Duca stated that she could get information on the cost overrun by dollar amount and percentage as compared to what was proposed for previous bids that Grassbuster’s Landscaping Company, Inc. had been awarded. Mr. Boggerty suggested that going forward it may be beneficial to include whether a company had previously done work for the City and what the percentage of their overruns was in the bid and RFP packages. Mr. Matt Harline, Interim City Manager, stated that if the City included performance measures it would need to be in a system so it can be applied equally. He stated that if this information would be used to penalize companies there needed to be good metrics. Responding to Mr. Neil, Ms. Duca stated that in terms of performance, Grassbuster’s had done a good job on various projects in the past and had completed jobs on time as well. Responding to Mayor Christiansen, Ms. Duca stated that Stevenson Drive was part of the 2021 street program that was accepted by Council the night before so the plan was to have Stevenson Drive done first. Responding to Mayor Christiansen, Ms. Duca stated that Public Works was trying to work on a phased in plan that would leave a significant number of trees in place by trying to work around them. She stated that they were working through that with a contractor for the 2020 program and it would come back to committee for review once they received further information on the cost and were able to ensure the ability to not disturb the trees as a part of the project. Responding to Mayor Christiansen, Ms. Duca stated that as long as everything worked out with the contractor and the equipment they should be able to pave the road surface before cold weather settled in. She advised that some of the issues that would take more time were the sidewalks on the other side of the trees due to the need to develop the possibilities for routing around them and the need for various public involvement as it could affect homeowner’s properties. Mr. Neil moved to recommend approval of staff’s recommendation to award the contract to Grassbuster’s Landscaping Company, Inc., for the City of Dover Fiscal Year 2021B Street and Alley Program. The motion was seconded by Mr. Taylor and unanimously carried. Elimination of the City Assessor’s Position (Cheryl Bundek, City Assessor) Mrs. Cheryl Bundek, City Assessor, reviewed the background and analysis regarding the elimination of the City Assessor’s position. Page 175

Paj 176

Item #6. COUNCIL COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE MEETING OF JUNE 15, 2021 PAGE 3 Responding to Mr. Sudler, Mrs. Bundek stated that her biggest con for eliminating the assessor position would be the loss of a position in the department, the pro would be the cost savings to the City which would be the case if they awarded the job to the contractor or if they chose to go with the County. Responding to Mr. Sudler, Mrs. Bundek stated that Human Resources was looking for a position for the employee whose position would be eliminated if the assessor’s position was eliminated and that the employee was looking at and applying for the open positions within the City. Responding to Mr. Neil, Mrs. Bundek stated that if Kent County had the revaluation, Tyler was doing that revaluation and had also done the City’s. She advised that if the City did not go with Kent County revaluations, if it chose to go with the Kent County route after the reevaluation was done, it would be in the City’s best interest because the values would be different. Mrs. Bundek noted that even if the City did a valuation in the same year, Kent County was using a different valuation software. She stated that Tyler was going to be using Patriot software, which is what Kent County currently had so there would be a different value probably between the City value and Kent County's value, which could make for appeals for whoever has the highest value between the two properties. Mrs. Bundek stated that it would not make sense to a property owner how the valuation year can be that close and maybe extremely different. She advised that the City would also have to make a judgment call on quality of home and condition of home from an assessor that is working in Kent County versus either an assessor that is working for the City or a contractor that is working for the City. Mrs. Bundek stated that her only concern if the City chose not to go with the county value was that it may incur a lot more appeals because of judgement calls between two different jurisdictions and two different software being used. She noted that the contractor cost right now was not to exceed $59,900 a year. Mayor Christiansen stated that the Assessor’s office had kept current with the assessment values of the properties within the City and he firmly believed that the City should keep the position. He noted that after the end of the Kent County Assessment the City could see if it dovetails with theirs and make the decision then. Mr. Hare noted that the City pays County taxes which covers having property assessed. He stated that he agreed with Mayor Christiansen that the position could stay vacant and be kept available while the City waits to see what the County comes up with before spending the money to do a reassessment. Mr. Sudler stated that he agreed with Mayor Christiansen and he would like to see some type of relief in regards to constituents being hit with County and City taxes simultaneously. Mayor Christiansen stated that in some areas where there is duplication of services, there is a separate service function budget. He noted that it had been considered for the City of Dover and the County over the last forty years. Mayor Christiansen advised that he did not know if it would change but it was something that should be discussed on a regular basis. Responding to Mr. Anderson, Mrs. Bundek advised that the City had already signed the contract with Tyler Technologies for additional services, so they were at its disposal. She stated that they would not be needed unless asked for any contract work, so the City could use them until a decision is made. Mrs. Bundek advised that if the City’s route was to search for another assessor, they would have to be certified with the Page 176

Paj 177

Item #6. COUNCIL COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE MEETING OF JUNE 15, 2021 PAGE 4 State to be appointed as the assessor to value properties. She stated that the contractor could be utilized in the interim to value any new building permits. Mrs. Bundek stated that she, Mrs. Patricia Marney, Customer Service Director, Mr. Randy Robertson, City Manager, and Mr. Matt Harline, then Assistant City Manager, met with Mr. Mike Petit de Mange, Kent County Administrator, to discuss what the future was with the reevaluation. She advised that it was not in the settlement that the County had to do a reoccurring reassessment like the City does, but Mr. Petit de Mange stated that was what he was proposing. Mrs. Bundek stated that the first City reassessment in 2010 was just short of a million dollars and has since gone down to about one hundred thousand ($100,000) because the properties will be looked at within a five-year period, so a contractor does not have to be hired to look at every property like the whole State has to do right now. Mrs. Bundek advised that the State was going to go out and look at every property again, including the City of Dover properties. She stated that the contractor would get the information from the Planning and Inspections Department via the Tax Assessor’s administrator, they would value the properties and the Tax Assessor’s administrator would do the rest of the leg work. Mrs. Bundek noted that the way it was positioned was for the Tax Assessor’s administrator to go under customer service and be directly supervised by Mrs. Marney. She stated that the contractor would come in and probably just deal with the administrator in that aspect. Mrs. Bundek stated that if the City went with the county valuations the Tax Assessor’s administrator would send the permits to the county, the county would do all the permits and valuation and the City could just do an export. She stated that it was currently $15.00 for each export so it would probably be best to do that four times a year prior to each billing and then bill based on that information. Mrs. Bundek sated that one of the big pros for using Kent County was that there would no longer be a need for a Board of Assessment Appeal because all of the appeals would be sent directly to Kent County, who would handle all appeals to property values. Mr. Harline stated that the information from the Council retreat was used to guide the construction of the 2022 Fiscal Year Budget which did not currently include funds for a new assessor so if Council wanted to hire a new assessor in the next several months there would be a substantial increase in the budget. He stated it was also assumed that the City would be able to find a way to absorb the field assessor if the Tax Assessor position was eliminated so that position would also have to be added back into the budget as well. Responding to Mr. Neil, Mrs. Bundek stated that if the position was kept vacant to see what happened with the County before a decision was made there would be some interim ordinance changes that would need to be made. She noted that Mrs. Marney had an intern in her office that had been working on the senior citizen issue and was willing to work on the ordinance issues as well but the City would need direction on whether the Tax Assessor’s office would remain under Council or go under the City Manager and who would be supervising the one person in that position. Ms. Lori Peddicord, Controller/Treasurer, stated that she was concerned that if the assessor’s position was left vacant rather than removing the department the City would have to budget for those positions. Responding to Ms. Peddicord, Mr. Harline stated that the administrative assistant position for the Tax office was budgeted but the field assessor was not budgeted and the assessor position was only budgeted through Mrs. Bundek’s retirement. He advised that if another assessor was hired the City would be paying retirement costs, the Assessor’s costs, and the field assessor’s position that was not funded because of the increased Page 177

Item #6. COUNCIL COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE MEETING OF JUNE 15, 2021 PAGE 5 Tyler amounts. Mr. Harline noted that if the City did not use Tyler and instead used that position, the amount would be less, however, he did not have the actual costs at the time. Mr. Neil moved to table the discussion and bring it back at the next Council Committee of the Whole meeting with a staff recommendation. The motion was seconded by Mr. Boggerty and unanimously carried. Discussion of Business License Rates (Matt Harline, Interim City Manager) Mr. Dave Hugg, Planning and Community Development Director, reviewed the background and analysis regarding the City of Dover business license fee structure. Responding to Mr. Anderson, Mr. Hugg stated that he had not received a lot of feedback from the business community however, due to the deadline, he had not done as much direct one-on-one as he would have liked. He stated that due to the time crunch both he and Mr. Matt Harline, interim City Manager, felt that if the City were to consider raising the fee amounts they should be nominal now and a serious adjustment should come at a later date. Mr. Lindell moved to refer the discussion back to staff for continued work and to report back at a time that was convenient once the appropriate information had been gathered, including talking to the business community as well as any ordinances that may need to be done. The motion was seconded by Mr. Sudler. Responding to Mr. Taylor, Mr. Hugg stated that a 10-10.8% increase would yield about $150,000. He advised that the expected revenues were around $147,000. Mr. Hugg stated that they would go down a little bit in the current fiscal year but were expected to bounce back in the new fiscal year. He noted that with an increase of 10% the proposed dollar amount would be roughly $150,000. Responding to Mr. Taylor, Mr. Hugg stated that the only rush was that license renewals had to be sent out by July 1st so if a change were to be made a notice would need to be included in the license renewal, otherwise the City would need to wait until the same time next year. Responding to Mr. Anderson, Mr. Harline stated that because the fees were all in Appendix F there would need to be an amendment to the ordinance. He advised that according to the Code licenses begin on August 1st and if they are not paid by August 31st a fine can be assessed for late payment so a lot of the timing is built into the Code. Mr. Harline stated that it was his understanding that it would need to be moved along pretty quickly. The motion to refer the discussion back to staff for continued work and to report back at a time that was convenient once the appropriate information had been gathered, including talking to the business community as well as any ordinances that may need to be done was unanimously carried. Police Department Executive Compensation (Thomas Johnson, Police Chief) Chief Thomas Johnson reviewed the background and analysis regarding Police Department Executive Compensation. Responding to Mr. Contant, Chief Johnson stated that the Deputy Chief was just below $124,000 and his recommendation was $135,000 which would be an increase of $11,000 for that position. He stated that if Page 178

Paj 179

Item #6. COUNCIL COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE MEETING OF JUNE 15, 2021 PAGE 6 Council was in favor of addressing the shortage in Fiscal Year 2021, his salary would increase from $139,000 to $147,000 which would be an additional $8,000. Responding to Mr. Sudler, Chief Johnson stated that the compression issue was present at the time he was offered the position and was working out the details of his employment. He noted that he was going to be making less than the person he supervised and once he got a better understanding of what the salary landscape was, he requested the City provide him with a mechanism to discuss his salary. Chief Johnson advised that the Mayor was identified as his point of contact for that discussion and they had a meeting in the City prior to him signing the offer letter. He stated that at that time the mayor had a figure and he had a figure, he was trying to create a separation between ranks and a placement in market value in Delaware. Chief Johnson noted that at the time, the mayor was prepared to offer $130,000. He believed it was related to the residual funds in the Fiscal Year 2020 budget because it was a mid-budget year and there was a concern on his end, but the appendix to that conversation was, there would be 7% added in Fiscal Year 2021 to make up the difference in market value which he believed the mayor recognized at the time. Chief Johnson stated that there was some type of communication disconnect internally from the time of that meeting and he discovered the issue later in the year, which was approximately in May. He advised that at that time he was trying to position for the Deputy Chief's promotional process and had two viable candidates. Chief Johnson stated that looking at the compression issue for the published salary for Deputy Chief against where the Captains were as the most recent FOP contract was progressing, he was concerned that there would be a challenge getting one of the captains to accept the position. He advised that during that discussion with the previous City manager, it became clear that they were not aware of the 7% piece of his hire so he began the process of trying to rectify it. Responding to Mr. Lindell, Mr. Matt Harline, Interim City Manager, stated that 20 or 25,000 would not be impossible to find if the City did a property tax increase. He noted that if it was closer to a 40 or 50,000 increase total and if the City did not increase property taxes he would advise Council to look at it as a $50,000 expenditure just to be safe in terms of load for retirement, etc. Mr. Harline stated that he had not had a chance to review the information with Ms. Lori Peddicord, Controller/Treasurer. Mr. Harline clarified that the original budget was built with a two and a half percent raise for non-bargaining and to increase that to 3% across the board for the extra half a percent would be a little over $20,000, and when the proposal for the Chief and Deputy Chief are added that is where it becomes $50,000. Mr. Lindell moved to recommend increasing the Deputy Police Chief’s salary to $135,000 and increasing the Police Chief’s salary to $147,000, as recommended by Staff. The motion was seconded by Mr. Neil and unanimously carried. Review of Fiscal Year 2021/2022 Annual Budget (Matt Harline, Interim City Manager) Mr. Matt Harline, Interim City Manager, reviewed the background and analysis regarding the Fiscal Year 2021/2022 Annual Budget. Mr. Harline shared an action form for budget amendment options (Attachment #1). Responding to Mr. Anderson, Mayor Christiansen stated that $50,000 of his economic development budget immediately goes to the Kent Economic Partnership and the rest is used by he and Mr. Hugg, Director of Planning and Community Development for advertisements, site visits, and promotion for the virtues of the City of Dover to generate jobs.

Item #6. COUNCIL COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE MEETING OF JUNE 15, 2021 PAGE 7 Responding to Mr. Neil, Mr. Harline advised that the City currently had $520,000 of revenue recognized. He stated that he and Ms. Lori Peddicord, Controller/Treasurer, were pretty confident that they could say it was lost revenue directly related to COVID. Mr. Harline noted that they were continuing to review where money could and could not be expended from the COVID monies and they were pretty confident that the direct amount from the federal government for the year would be in the neighborhood of $4.3 million. He stated that he believed the Committee members already knew some of the things they were allowing the City to expend it on were things the City did not usually do but there were some opportunities to use it in things like housing, COVID vaccinations, and things like that. Mr. Harline noted that there was also some money for water and wastewater which he thought could be used but the City had not given up on efforts to secure more funding. He stated that he, Mr. Hugg, and the Mayor had met with the U.S. Treasury Department and representatives from both Senator's offices and their representatives, particularly Senator Carper, but also Senator Coons, who helped bring the Treasury to the table. Mr. Harline advised that they had learned there were possibilities for the City and ways that the City could get more money, but it would have to be through the State or the County. He stated that the other way would be if new legislation were proposed and passed in the U.S. Congress, or if there were some legal decisions saying that distribution was constitutional so basically $520,000 was all that was recognized in the 2022 budget currently. Responding to Mr. Neil, Mr. Harline stated that he was not suggesting that the City spend the other million dollars from the real estate transfer tax on the sale of Dover Downs yet. He advised that he would like to use that million dollars to build the reserve because there were a lot of things that had been cut and he and Ms. Peddicord were not absolutely sure where the City would be at the end of Fiscal Year 2021. Mr. Harline noted that he and Ms. Peddicord would like to go back and re-analyze what the priorities were with all of the departments. Responding to Mr. Sudler, Mr. Harline stated that the $50,000 he had referenced for non-bargaining employees was separate from the Segal Water Assessment. He advised that the only thing from the Segal study that was in the budget was the recommendation to bring the supervisor in Grounds, supervisor in Streets, and some other positions up to the minimum according to the market study part of the Segal Assessment. Responding to Mr. Lindell, Mr. Harline stated that when the COPS Grant was adopted, the City assumed in its model that there would be a one cent increase in property tax for the current year and another half cent increase in Fiscal Year 2023 to cover the cost for the five additional police officers. Responding to Mr. Lindell, Mr. Harline stated that regardless of what is done in the current year between the cameras and other items, the commitment would be up to $664,000 next year. Mr. Sudler stated for the record that Council needed to continue to work on their statesmanship behavior and attitude when conducting the business of the public. Responding to Mrs. Arndt, Mr. Harline stated that if a constituent owned a $250,000 home and the City put a one cent property tax for $100, the cost of the increase would be $25 a year for a $250,000 house. Mrs. Arndt stated that she would ask Council to look at a one cent increase versus a two cent increase. Page 180

Item #6. COUNCIL COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE MEETING OF JUNE 15, 2021 PAGE 8 Responding to Mr. Rocha, Ms. Peddicord stated that there were a lot of unknowns and a lot of cuts being considered. She advised that the cost of a one cent tax increase equated to about $352,000 and a two cent increase equated to about $700,000, which she did not think the tax payers would notice significantly. She stated that she agreed with a lot of the statements being made about not being able to count on one-time money because it was unknown if it would continue and there may be a decrease going forward. Responding to Mr. Anderson, Ms. Peddicord stated that the trash fee, water rates, and other increases already built into the budget were the general fund budget, which was different. She stated that there were unknown expenses that were not recognized yet. Responding to Mr. Rocha, Mr. Harline stated that purchases were made with the assumption of raising taxes one cent or one and a half cents to cover the cost in Fiscal Year 2022 and 2023. Mr. Rocha moved to move the budget forward as amended by Staff to include a one cent tax increase, to put $25,000 into the Economic Development Budget, and to include the recommendation to have a 3% increase for non-bargaining employees and to have equity with the Chief and Deputy Chief’s positions. The motion was seconded by Mr. Sudler and carried by a roll call vote of seven (7) yes (Hare, Arndt, Rocha, Lindell, Sudler, Shevock, Contant), three (3) no (Anderson, Boggerty, Taylor), and one (1) absent (Neil). Mr. Hare moved for adjournment of the Legislative, Finance and Administration Committee meeting, seconded by Mr. Neil and unanimously carried. Meeting adjourned at 9:45 p.m. Mr. Taylor moved for adjournment of the Council Committee of the Whole meeting. The motion was seconded by Mr. Anderson and unanimously carried.

ATTACHMENT #1 Council Committee of the Whole Meeting of 06/15/2021 Item #6. ACTION FORM PROCEEDING: Council Committee of the Whole - Legislative, Finance & Administration DEPARTMENT OF ORIGIN: City Manager DATE SUBMITTED: 6/15/21 PREPARED BY: Matthew Harline, Interim City Manager SUBJECT: Budget Amendment Options REVIEWED BY: Lori Peddicord, Controller/Treasurer APPROVALS: Council Committee of the Whole EXHIBITS: None EXPENDITURE REQUIRED: n/a AMOUNT BUDGETED: TBD TIMETABLE: Upon Council approval of the FY2021 – 22 Budget RECOMMENDED ACTION: Staff recommends approving a minimal Property Tax increase to maintain Public Service levels The proposed budget provided to the City Council on May 27, 2021 for the FY2021/22 Fiscal Year included a proposal for a Property Tax increase of $0.055/$100 of assessed value. At the direction of the City Council possible cuts were proposed totaling $1.9 million, enough to eliminate the $0.055/$100 Property Tax increase. Council recommended cuts totalling enough to allow a balanced budget with a 2-cent property Tax increase. Within the last week the City has learned that a large transfer tax payment has been received - $2,160,000. Council has asked what options the staff recommends for this additional money, including a complete avoidance of a Property Tax increase. On the following page is a spreadsheet/chart with six columns. The first two include the item description and the Department associated with the item. The next four columns are as follows: • Staff cuts: Proposed cuts made by the staff prior to the development of the budget document. • Council cuts: Proposed cuts at the meetings on June 2nd and June 3rd • Spending approved: Items that survived both rounds of cuts • Additional approval(s): Additional reductions in revenue if Council recommends removing the $0.02 tax increase and/or suggest other operational expenditures, or capital expenditures to be earmarked with the receipt of the $2million transfer tax. Keep in mind FY22 costs for the five additional officers plus tasers & body cameras will cost the City $379,800 in excess of the COPS grant revenues, and City share in FY2022/23 will be $664,500 (a $285,000 increase from FY22/FY23). The budget reductions requested at the June 2- 3 work sessions reduce the General Fund capital expenditures from $6.37 million to $5.17 million, and the additional transfer of $1 million from the Electric Fund is still in place. Moreover, the final cost to the General Fund for the Tropical Storm Isaias that are not covered by FEMA are in the range of $120,000. The final FY2021 budget balance estimate, is less certain this year than in past years. Staff strongly discourages adding more than half of the $2.1million transfer tax receipt to the proposed FY22 beginning budget balance. Page 182
