REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING The Regular Council Meeting was held on September 26, 2011 at 7:30 p.m. with Council President Leary presiding. Council members present were Mr. Anderson, Dr. McGlumphy, Mr. Lynn, Mr. Bonar, Mrs. Williams, Mr. Hare, and Mr. Hutchison. Mrs. Russell was absent. Council staff members present were Police Chief Hosfelt, Ms. Russell, Mrs. Mitchell, Mrs. Melson-Williams, Fire Chief Fortney, Mr. Koenig, City Solicitor Rodriguez, and Mrs. McDowell. Mayor Carey was also present. OPEN FORUM The Open Forum was held at 7:15 p.m., prior to commencement of the Official Council Meeting. Council President Leary declared the Open Forum in session and reminded those present that Council was not in official session and could not take formal action. There was no one present wishing to speak during the Open Forum. The invocation was given by Chaplain Dixon, followed by the Pledge of Allegiance. AGENDA ADDITIONS/DELETIONS Dr. McGlumphy moved for approval of the agenda as presented, seconded by Mr. Bonar and unanimously carried. Mr. Hare moved for approval of the consent agenda as presented, seconded by Dr. McGlumphy and carried by a unanimous roll call vote (Mrs. Russell absent). ADOPTION OF MINUTES - REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING OF SEPTEMBER 12, 2011 The Minutes of the Regular Council Meeting of September 12, 2011 were unanimously approved by motion of Mr. Hare, seconded by Dr. McGlumphy and bore the written approval of Mayor Carey. PRESENTATION - CERTIFICATE OF APPRECIATION - CHICK-FIL-A The City Clerk read the following Certificate of Appreciation into the record: WHEREAS, there are times in our community when people go over and beyond for the well-being of others; and WHEREAS, in 1946 the founder of Chick-fil-A's decision was as much practical as spiritual, believing that all franchised Chick-fil-A operators and restaurant employees should have an opportunity to rest, spend time with family and friends, and worship if they choose to do so, as a result they closed their restaurant doors every Sunday; and WHEREAS, owner of the local Chick-fil-A, Mrs. Mary Johnson reached out to the City of Dover wanting to show her appreciation and respect to all of those whose workload was anticipated to vastly increase due to the impending storm from Hurricane Irene and who would have to leave the comforts of their homes to make sure our community stayed safe; and

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF SEPTEMBER 26, 2011 PAGE 2 WHEREAS, understanding that many places may not be available for emergency staff to eat, Mrs. Johnson opened her restaurant on Sunday August 26th, 2011 making and distributing hundreds of chicken sandwiches to emergency personnel on a day that is traditionally marked as a day of rest in the history of Chick-fil-A; and WHEREAS, it is with kind regards and many thanks that we are here today to recognize you. NOW, THEREFORE, I, CARLETON E. CAREY, SR., MAYOR OF THE CITY OF DOVER, DELAWARE do hereby award this Certificate of Appreciation on this 26th day of September two thousand eleven to Mary Johnson & Dover Chick-fil-A. Mayor Carey presented the Certificate to Mrs. Mary Johnson, Owner of Chick-Fil-A in Dover, and relayed appreciation for her assistance to the community and dedication. Mrs. Johnson thanked members for the recognition and introduced Ms. Cheryl Webb, Manager of Chick-Fil-A in Dover, who had assisted in distributing sandwiches. PRESENTATION - FRIENDS OF THE DOVER LIBRARY Mr. N.C. Vasuki, President of the Friends of the Dover Public Library, noted that the construction of the new library has begun and that the Friends of the Dover Public Library have committed $210,000 toward construction. He presented a $10,000 contribution to Ms. Gwen Elliot, Vice-President of the Library Foundation, and noted that with this contribution, the Friends of the Dover Public Library have contributed a total of $116,000 to the Dover Library Foundation, which is the agency that is managing the funding for the new library. Mr. Vasuki stated that this action represents the importance of community organizations consisting of volunteers who give of themselves without seeking compensation or recognition. He stated his hope that City Council appreciated the work that has been provided by the Friends of the Dover Public Library over the years. On behalf of the Dover Library Foundation, Ms. Elliot relayed appreciation to the Friends of the Dover Public Library, who have worked hard with sales and other events to assist in making the new library a reality. Mr. Vasuki encouraged all to become members of the Friends of the Dover Public Library, at a cost of $10 per year, and noted that all monies received would go toward the new library. He invited all to participate in fundraising events scheduled for October. Mayor Carey relayed appreciation for the donation and the contributions provided by the Friends of the Dover Public Library and for helping to make the City a prosperous place for the citizens. Ms. Margery Cyr, Library Director, expressed her gratitude to the members of the Friends of the Dover Public Library for their unending support and for their advocacy of the Dover Public Library. She also announced that the current Capital Campaign allows for anyone to participate in supporting the new library and that the Memorial Brick Campaign has officially been launched.

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF SEPTEMBER 26, 2011 PAGE 3 PROCLAMATION - PROSTATE CANCER AWARENESS MONTH The City Clerk read the following Proclamation into the record: WHEREAS, across the nation, prostate cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer in men and is a major health concern; and WHEREAS, more than 217,000 new cases and about 32,000 deaths are attributed to prostate cancer each year in the United States; and WHEREAS, four out of five cases are diagnosed in men over 65 but less than 1% in men under 50, and at any age prostate cancer devastates families through loss of income, partnership and support; and WHEREAS, prostate cancer in its early stages can be cured and fortunately about 85% of American men with prostate cancer are diagnosed in the early stages, WHEREAS, research suggests that men could reduce their risk of prostate cancer mortality if they followed recommended prostate cancer screening guidelines, including examination by a health care provider and increased awareness and use of early detection practices. NOW, THEREFORE, I, CARLETON E. CAREY, SR., MAYOR OF THE CITY OF DOVER, do hereby proclaim September 2011 as PROSTATE CANCER AWARENESS MONTH in the City of Dover and urge all men in our community and throughout the country to become aware of their own risks of prostate cancer, talk to their health care providers about prostate cancer and, whenever appropriate, get screened for the disease. UTILITY COMMITTEE REPORT - SEPTEMBER 12, 2011 The Utility Committee met on September 12, 2011 with Chairman Bonar presiding. Presentation - Power Plant Revenues Mrs. Donna Mitchell, Controller/Treasurer, noted that members were provided information during the budget hearings regarding Power Plant revenues. She stated that she felt that it would be beneficial for members to discuss the revenue that is earned by the Power Plant. Mr. Ron Lunt, Public Utilities Director, reviewed the Electric General Assets - Net Revenues and the Electric Revenue budget. He also provided and reviewed the City of Dover Summer Generation Report and explained the factors that comprise the Pennsylvania, Jersey, Maryland Interconnection, LLC (PJM) revenue. Mr. Lunt noted that, in total operations, $7.3M capacity credits are received through the Reliability Pricing Model (RPM) auction. He stated that this is the payment received on a monthly basis for availability, regardless of operating time. He explained that figures were included for net generation (profit when the generation runs) as well as payment received for having the plants available to generate power.

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF SEPTEMBER 26, 2011 PAGE 4 Responding to Mr. Blakeman, Mr. Lunt indicated that the plant is run as scheduled by PJM and confirmed that every KW generated goes to PJM. He noted that the capacity bill, in the amount of $8.5M, is listed as an expense and a capacity credit in the amount of $7.3M results in the bill exceeding the credit. Mr. Lunt explained that PJM is paid a capacity charge for the shortfall. He explained that there are 175 megawatts of available capacity and the City’s obligation is approximately 200 megawatts; therefore, the City receives a credit for 175 megawatts and is billed for 200 megawatts, resulting in a net payment for 25 megawatts, at a cost in excess of $1M. He stated that the capacity consists of system load plus reserves and that the load percentage is approximately 15% to 16%. In response to Mr. Bonar, Mr. Lunt indicated that Units 1 and 2 were built in 1962 and significant deterioration has been found in the buckets, which are part of the steam intake into the turbine. The only means to make repairs would be to remove the covers, which would cost a minimum of $500,000. He stated that the condition of the generators is unknown and The Energy Authority (TEA) and North American Energy Services (NAES) have been requested to determine the true longevity of these units. Mr. Lunt stated his concerns about the safe operation of Units 1 and 2 and felt that the City would be fortunate if these units continue to function for an additional five (5) years. He suggested attempting to replace Unit 1 and Unit 2 capacity at a different level through Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) and planning for their elimination. Mr. Lunt explained the current difficulty of bidding these units into the auction and noted that if they experienced a catastrophic failure, it would be necessary for the City to buy replacement capacity on the open market. Mr. Hutchison questioned the cost of replacing capacity for Units 1 and 2. Responding, Mr. Lunt estimated a cost of $42,000 a megawatt year (34 megawatts x $42,000). If bid into the auction and the units were destroyed and could not operate, the City would be required to buy replacement capacity, which would be at the spot market value (whatever the market will bear). With regard to buying generation versus rebuilding, Mr. Lunt stated that from a portfolio management standpoint, the City would benefit from diversifying its portfolio, which would require buying other generator assets. Mr. Hutchison requested further review of this issue. At the request of Mrs. Williams, Mr. Lunt stated that if the City were to get “out of the generation business,” there would be an immediate requirement to pay $8.5M without any offset and noted that, based on the net revenues from the electric generation assets, the City is currently making money. In addition, he stated that the City would lose control of pricing and would also lose the profit which is being created by the plants every year. He assured members that the plants are providing a very strong, financially feasible electric operation. Mrs. Williams indicated that citizens have conveyed to her their appreciation for the dependable electric service provided by the City of Dover. Mr. Lunt relayed appreciation to the Utility Committee and City Council for their support in building a first-rate infrastructure and noted that the City’s outage rate is extremely low. There was no further action taken by City Council.

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF SEPTEMBER 26, 2011 PAGE 5 By consent agenda, Mr. Hare moved for acceptance of the Utility Committee Report, seconded by Dr. McGlumphy and carried by a unanimous roll call vote (Mrs. Russell absent). LEGISLATIVE, FINANCE, AND ADMINISTRATION COMMITTEE REPORT - SEPTEMBER 12, 2011 The Legislative, Finance, and Administration Committee met on September 12, 2011 with Chairman McGlumphy presiding. Law Enforcement Training for Fire Marshal City Clerk’s Office Note: Due to time constraints, the Law Enforcement Training for Fire Marshal was presented to Council for consideration during their Regular Meeting of September 12, 2011. Proposed Resolution No. 2011-11 - Request to General Assembly to Amend the City of Dover Charter - Length of Terms for Mayor and Council At the request of Councilman Hutchison, the City Clerk prepared Proposed Resolution No. 2011-11 requesting the Delaware General Assembly to amend the City of Dover Charter to increase the term lengths for the Mayor and Council from two (2) years to four (4) years. Chairman McGlumphy noted that this matter was deferred by the Committee during their meeting of August 22, 2011 due to time constraints. Mr. Robin Christiansen (previous member of City Council and former Council President for the City of Dover) stated that members should determine if the City should continue with the current hybrid populace type of government or move to a strong Mayor-Council form of government. Before considering the terms for the Mayor and Council, he suggested that members appoint a committee to study the Charter and consider the possibility of changing the City’s form of government. Mr. Christiansen stated that if the Mayor is provided more responsibility, the Mayor’s term should be extended to (4) years. He suggested that Council review the current responsibilities of the Mayor while the City is looking for a City Manager. Mr. Christiansen felt that the previous and current Mayors who were present (Mayor Carey, Mr. Hutchison, and Mrs. Williams) could attest to the fact that the Mayor’s job is “great” but has little authority. It was Mr. Christiansen’s opinion that the Mayor should continue as head of the Police Department; however, all department heads should report to the Mayor on a day-to-day basis, since the Mayor is one (1) of two (2) officials elected at-large and serves as the City’s advocate. For those concerned about the City Manager’s position, he noted that every City that has a strong Mayor has a professional manager, but not necessarily a City Manager. He felt that City Council has the responsibility to its citizens to consider this matter before changing the terms for the Mayor and/or Council. He suggested that responsibility be shared, with Council functioning as a legislative, appropriative body and the Mayor serving as the Chief Executive Officer of the City, who formulates the budget for presentation to Council and justifies costs and expenditures to the citizens. Mr. Christiansen encouraged members to address these issues and appoint another “blue ribbon” commission to study the City’s form of government and provide this commission a time frame to present a recommendation regarding the responsibilities of the Mayor. In addition, he suggested that Council terms remain at two (2) years, explaining that lengthening the terms for Council would make

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF SEPTEMBER 26, 2011 PAGE 6 it difficult for those wishing to run for office and difficult for residents to remove members who may not be performing as desired. Mr. Hare stated that, although he concurred with the statements made regarding a Strong Mayor form of government for the City and that the matter should be further reviewed, he supported lengthening the terms of office for both the Mayor and Council. Mr. Shevock requested that members be provided with the results of the previous “blue ribbon” commissions and their recommendations, stating that there was no need to appoint another committee if such a study had already been completed. Mr. Hutchison explained that the proposal to extend the terms of office for the Mayor and Council would provide the Mayor and Council a better opportunity to build a team to work with City departments. He noted that the cost for a City election is approximately $10,000 per year and that in four (4) years, the City would realize a $40,000 savings, decrease the amount of responsibility and demand on the City Clerk’s Office for conducting the elections, and enhance the working relationship between members of Council and the Mayor. Council President Leary advised members that he previously served on a Charter Review Committee whose members discussed extending the terms of office for Mayor and Council and instituting a recall provision for those occasions when the voters felt that a mistake was made in the election of a member. He stated that during this review, there was some interface between the Consent Decree and the Charter on some of these issues. Mr. Leary suggested that consideration of this matter be delayed until the results were received regarding the City redistricting, which is currently in progress, and whether these results were affected by the Consent Decree. In addition, he felt that it was easier for City Council candidates to commit to a two (2) year term versus a four (4) year term, particularly for those in the work force, and that the pool of potential candidates might be limited if the term were lengthened. He suggested that consideration of term limits be a separate discussion from the review of the Charter. Mr. Christiansen noted that when he served as Council President, he, along with members of Council, attempted to appoint committee members who might be interested in serving on City Council to provide them an opportunity to familiarize themselves with issues involving the City. He felt that some of these members became involved by attending meetings, reviewing information, and becoming civic activists. This helped them make the decision as to whether or not they wished to serve and assisted them in preparing for the job. The Committee recommended tabling this matter pending additional review of actions taken by previous Charter Review Committees. By consent agenda, Mr. Hare moved for approval of the Committee’s recommendation, seconded by Dr. McGlumphy and carried by a unanimous roll call vote (Mrs. Russell absent).

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF SEPTEMBER 26, 2011 PAGE 7 Proposed Ordinance #2011-15 - Appendix A - Subdivisions - Regarding Homeowners’ Associations (Tabled by Committee on June 27, 2011) During their meeting of June 27, 2011, members considered proposed Ordinance #2011-15, amending Appendix A - Subdivisions, regarding homeowners’ association (HOA) responsibilities. Mrs. Ann Marie Townshend, Director of Planning and Community Development, reminded members that the Proposed Ordinance was developed as a result of a report provided to the Utility Committee regarding defunct subdivisions, some of which remain uncompleted. She assured members that the proposed amendment addresses the Committee’s concerns regarding stormwater management and passive open space not being maintained. Mrs. Townshend explained that the Proposed Ordinance #2011-15 would amend the subdivision regulations to require that HOAs be formed with mandatory membership, and that these associations assume and continue maintenance responsibilities for common open space. Under the Proposed Ordinance, if the City needs to perform maintenance of these common areas due to code violations not addressed by the HOA, the City would bill the property owners of the lots within the subdivision to recover the cost and place these charges on the tax bill of the property owners. Since there were several concerns and questions by the Committee, the proposal was tabled and staff was directed to meet with the individual members of Council who have concerns and that the matter be brought back to the Committee during their next meeting. The Committee removed the matter from the table. Mrs. Townshend advised members that staff met with Councilman Anderson, who expressed concerns about mandatory membership in an HOA and requested that the ordinance be amended to include protection of First Amendment rights of property owners. After consultation with City Solicitor Rodriguez, staff recommended that the requested amendment not be included in Proposed Ordinance #2011-15 due to concerns regarding the legality of such an amendment, as well as the amendment being well beyond the scope of the ordinance. Staff also met with Councilman Lynn, who shared concerns and questions during the Committee’s discussion of the proposal. Mrs. Townshend referred to the memo dated January 3, 2011 from Mr. Scott Koenig, Public Services Manager, that was presented to the Utility Committee, Minutes from the Utility Committee Meeting of January 24, 2011, and Article 5, Section 10. 4 - Management and Maintenance of Common Open Space and Recreational Areas of the Zoning Ordinance. She suggested that members consider the following information: 1) HOAs are already mandatory for residential developments with private open space under the State Sediment and Stormwater Regulations and the City of Dover Zoning Ordinance; 2) The Proposed Ordinance would allow the City to recover costs incurred by failure of HOAs to maintain private open space. It would ensure that residents in communities with active HOAs that pro-actively maintain private open space would not be penalized by the City absorbing the costs of those who fail to meet their obligations; and

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF SEPTEMBER 26, 2011 PAGE 8 3) Failure to develop a mechanism for the City to recover costs for maintaining private open space that HOAs fail to maintain will cause an unsustainable increase in operations costs to the City. Mrs. Townshend noted that members were provided a list of residential developments that would be subject to the requirements of the Proposed Ordinance. Staff recommended adoption of Proposed Ordinance #2011-15. Mrs. Townshend stated that staff developed Proposed Amendment #1 to Ordinance #2011-15 in response to Mr. Anderson’s request. City Solicitor Rodriguez indicated his objection to the inclusion of the Proposed Amendment, explaining that owners should already be aware of this right, particularly if they have obtained legal counsel. Responding to Mr. Anderson, City Solicitor Rodriguez stated that, although Proposed Amendment #1 would be legal, he felt that it would not add anything to the Proposed Ordinance and that it would detract from the enforcement of the ordinance. He stated his approval of Proposed Ordinance #2011-15 as presented by staff and that he does not support Proposed Amendment #1. In response to Dr. Jones regarding fairness to those homeowners who have paid their dues, Mrs. Townshend suggested that staff could develop a mechanism where, at the request of the HOA, the City could collect association fees from the property owners and distribute them to the HOA. Dr. Jones was in favor of this approach and also noted that there may be occasions when new homeowners may not be aware of HOA requirements. Responding to Mr. Bonar, City Solicitor Rodriguez indicated that he was not aware of any case law in which the mandatory membership requirement had been contested. He also reminded members that a potential purchaser is made aware of membership requirements prior to purchasing a property. Mr. Lester Blakeman, 209 Thelmas Way, stated that he has lived in Cranberry Run since 1998 and that this development has an HOA that has not functioned well. He noted that although the HOA has taken care of grass cutting, more and more residents are dropping out of the association. Mr. Blakeman stated that he has not received a bill for association dues for two (2) years. He explained his fear of receiving a large bill for these expenses and that he would prefer that the City handle the matter through his tax bill. Mr. Blakeman added that it has been his experience that HOAs creates conflict among neighbors regarding what can or cannot be done to their property. Mr. Scott Koenig, Interim City Manager, advised members that Proposed Ordinance #2011-15 is the first of a series of recommendations related to unfinished developments or other development-related issues. He requested that the Proposed Ordinance be adopted and assured members that staff would bring forward additional related issues for discussion, such as stormwater and open space utility. He explained that the Proposed Ordinance is an attempt to have private open space maintained so that residents can be proud of the communities in which they live.

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF SEPTEMBER 26, 2011 PAGE 9 Mr. Anderson noted that the City Solicitor has verified that the adoption of proposed Amendment #1 would be legal and felt that the City has a fundamental responsibility to ensure that citizens are not subject to interference while living their lives and that they retain the right to conduct activities such as holding Bible studies in their homes, posting political signs in their yards, etc. The Committee recommended adoption of Proposed Ordinance #2011-15. By consent agenda, Mr. Hare moved for approval of the Committee’s recommendation, seconded by Dr. McGlumphy and carried by a unanimous roll call vote (Mrs. Russell absent). (The First Reading of Proposed Ordinance #2011-15 will take place during the latter part of the meeting.) Evaluation of Bids - Municipal Street Sweeper Staff solicited and received bids for the replacement of a street sweeper (Vehicle #357), as follows: Company Location Model Bid Amount Delivery Mid-Atlantic Waste Systems Easton, MD Tymco Model 600 $164,700.00 60-90 days Atlantic Machinery, Inc. Silver Springs, MD Schwarze A7000 $159,273.00 150-210 days Mr. Scott Koenig, Interim City Manager, stated that staff has reviewed both bid packages and the machine offered by Mid-Atlantic Waste Systems met 100% of the bid requirements. The machine offered by Atlantic Machinery, Inc. had some minor specification non-compliance issues, due in part to the body style and design. He stated that the Schwarze A7000 machine had several major non-compliance issues, including lack of a belly broom and an auxiliary hydraulic system. Mr. Koenig advised members that, in 2006, the City opted to purchase the Schwarze A7000 Sweeper, the same unit offered under the current bid package by Atlantic Machinery, Inc. Immediately after taking possession of this unit, there were operational problems. No technical support was offered by the vendor, representatives were not available to discuss the problems, and having warranty work completed proved troublesome. He stated that when parts were needed for repair, there was a 10-14 day waiting period for delivery. Mr. Koenig indicated that the TYMCO Model 600 offered by Mid-Atlantic Waste Systems is a maintenance-friendly street sweeper. He advised members that staff has a good working relationship with the vendor and the TYMCO technical support staff and that parts are available on a three (3) to five (5) day timetable. In reviewing the bids with the Fleet Maintenance staff, Mr. Koenig stated that staff favors the TYMCO Model 600 and believes that the City could save the $5,427.00 price difference in maintenance costs within the first two (2) years. Staff recommended approval of the purchase of the Tymco Model 600 Street Sweeper from Mid-Atlantic Waste System in the amount of $164,700.00.

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF SEPTEMBER 26, 2011 PAGE 10 The Committee recommended approval of the purchase of a Tymco Model 600 Street Sweeper from Mid-Atlantic Waste System in the amount of $164,700.00, as recommended by staff. By consent agenda, Mr. Hare moved for approval of the Committee’s recommendation, seconded by Dr. McGlumphy and carried by a unanimous roll call vote (Mrs. Russell absent). Review of Policy for Physical Posting of Properties Proposed for Rezoning Mrs. Ann Marie Townshend, Director of Planning and Community Development, reminded members that on August 8, 2011, City Council adopted a series of text amendments to Article 10 of the Zoning Ordinance that codify the process and procedures for planning and development applications. The adopted Ordinance requires that properties proposed for rezoning post a physical notice with the date and location of the public hearing and the nature of the rezoning request. According to the Ordinance, a policy regarding the posting requirements must be approved by the Planning Commission and City Council. Mrs. Townshend advised members that on August 15, 2011, the Planning Commission approved the draft policy for physical posting of properties for Conditional Use Applications, Site Development Plan Applications, and Rezoning Applications. She stated that City Council approval is required for those portions of the policy that relate to Rezoning Applications. Members were provided a Physical Posting Requirements Policy which included the size, placement and maintenance requirements for the physical posting of properties. A template sign for Rezoning Applications was also included for review. As an example, Mrs. Townshend provided members with a photo of a recent notice posted for a rezoning. Staff recommended approval of the Physical Posting of Properties for Rezoning Policy. The Committee recommended approval of the Physical Posting of Properties for Rezoning Policy. By consent agenda, Mr. Hare moved for approval of the Committee’s recommendation, seconded by Dr. McGlumphy and carried by a unanimous roll call vote (Mrs. Russell absent). Financial Policy - Carry-Forward Balances Mrs. Donna Mitchell, Controller/Treasurer, advised members that Chairman McGlumphy requested that staff review the City’s Financial Policy as it relates to carry-forward balances and the manner in which they are budgeted. As a result, she presented members with proposed amendments to the Financial Policy and explained that the amendments are reflected in red font for additions and strikeouts for deletions. She noted that Item #2 listed in the Expenditure Policy contains existing wording which is being mentioned since concerns regarding this issue were recently relayed by members of Council. The Committee recommended approval of the Financial Policy, as amended. By consent agenda, Mr. Hare moved for approval of the Financial Policy, as amended (Exhibit #1), as recommended by the Committee, seconded by Dr. McGlumphy and carried by a unanimous roll call vote (Mrs. Russell absent).

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF SEPTEMBER 26, 2011 PAGE 11 Elimination of Delinquent (Blue) Notices Mr. Scott Koenig, Interim City Manager, advised members that the existing delinquent account notification process generates a separate notice to utility customers, which is commonly known as the “blue” notice. Currently, utility bill payments are due 21 days after the bill date. On the 23rd day, a delinquent notice is generated and mailed to the customer. He stated that approximately 6,000 to 7,000 notices are mailed each month. Mr. Koenig stated that, with the implementation of the new billing system and use of the new utility bill format, the City is able to provide utility customers with a “Notice of Disconnection” as a direct notation on the bill. He explained that the software programs will ensure the notification will appear only on utility bills with a delinquent balance. Mr. Koenig stated that staff estimates this change in procedure will result in an annual cost savings of approximately $30,000 in postage, $5,000 in office supplies, and an overall staff time savings of one (1) hour a day for 260 work days a year. Currently, the preparation and mailing of delinquent notices requires the combined efforts of staff from Customer Service and Central Services. Members were provided examples of the current delinquent notice, the billing timeline, and a sample of a new utility bill containing a “Notice of Disconnection.” Mr. Koenig stated that staff intends to notify utility customers of the change by insert with the October 2011 bill and will eliminate the “blue” notice effective November 1, 2011. Staff recommended adding the delinquent notification to the utility bill in order to eliminate a separate mailing of a delinquent notice. Referring to the delinquent notification on the new bill, Dr. Jones suggested that a larger font or other mechanism be used to bring attention to the message. Concurring, Mr. Koenig stated that the message will appear in all caps, or some other change will be made to make the notification more evident. He assured members that staff will make a determination regarding this change and present their findings directly to Council when they consider this matter. Noting that the City issues a City-wide newsletter, Mr. Bonar suggested that a public awareness article be included to provide customers additional notification of the change. Mrs. Russell also suggested that the change be posted on the City’s website. In response to the suggestion to use red font on the new bill for the delinquent notice, Mrs. Kathy Divver, Customer Service Manager, stated that the City’s current printer utilized for billing does not produce color. She indicated she would determine if the program would allow for bold text and a font change for that area on the bill that includes the delinquent notice. Mr. Anderson suggested the possibility of changing the location of the delinquent notice to the top of the bill rather than having it located at the bottom.

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF SEPTEMBER 26, 2011 PAGE 12 The Committee recommended adoption of a policy change to add a delinquent notification to utility bills and eliminate a separate mailing of delinquent notices, and to request staff to address the Committee’s concerns regarding public notification when this matter is presented to Council. (Clerk’s Office Note: Following this meeting, staff submitted a revised version of the new Utility Bill with the Delinquent Notice which addressed the Committee’s concerns regarding public notification.) For public notification purposes, Mr. Scott Koenig, Interim City Manager, reviewed details regarding this matter during the Council Meeting. Referring to the revised version of the new Utility Bill, he noted that the font could not be made larger. He also informed members that a black and white printer is currently utilized to print utility bills and that printing such bills utilizing a color printer would increase the cost significantly. Mr. Bonar commended staff for submitting this cost-saving idea and stressed it was important that customers read their bills carefully to be made aware of delinquencies. Dr. McGlumphy complimented staff for bringing this matter forward and reiterated the importance of customers reading their bills, noting that separate delinquency notices will no longer be sent. Mr. Anderson relayed approval of the design of the delinquent notice portion of the new utility bill and that his concerns stated during the Committee meeting had been resolved. Dr. McGlumphy moved for adoption of a policy change to add a delinquent notification to utility bills and eliminate a separate mailing of delinquent notices, as recommended by the Committee (Exhibit #2). The motion was seconded by Mr. Bonar and carried by a unanimous roll call vote (Mrs. Russell absent). Implementation of Social Media Policy Mrs. Kim Hawkins, Human Resources Director, advised members that, due to constant changes in electronic media, staff recommended the implementation of a Social Media Policy. She explained that social media is subject to the same standards of conduct that apply to in-person communications and activities; therefore, all of the expectations and obligations contained in other City of Dover policies also apply online. Mrs. Hawkins indicated that other policies that may be relevant include City’s policies on Discrimination and Harassment, Disclosure of Confidential Information, Failure in Personal Conduct, Incompatible Activities, and Disciplinary Action. She stated that personnel whose conduct violates the Social Media Policy policy would be subject to the City’s disciplinary measures. In addition, she stated that, under this policy, any employee who becomes aware of inappropriate use of social media by coworkers or supervisors would be required to report their findings to the Human Resources Department immediately. Staff recommended the implementation of the Social Media Policy as presented. In response to several concerns expressed by members, Mrs. Hawkins explained that the policy addresses only comments that are discriminatory in nature.

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF SEPTEMBER 26, 2011 PAGE 13 Mr. Shevock noted that the State of Delaware adopted a similar policy and questioned why staff did not consider utilizing it rather than developing a new policy. Responding, Mrs. Hawkins stated that staff recently attended a seminar related to social media policies and was provided a sample policy, which she stated was modified and used to develop the City’s proposed policy. She noted that the seminar was conducted by a law firm. Mr. Anderson stated that, although the City has several policies that regulate behaviors such as web browsing, harassment, etc., the Social Media Policy is different in that it attempts to regulate what an individual does with their own equipment on their own time and treats free speech as an action. He felt that, although individuals may have discriminatory thoughts, thoughts are irrelevant and are not regulated under the laws of discrimination, as long as the actions of the individual do not reflect those thoughts. Members were provided email correspondence regarding this issue Mr. Anderson explained that this information included samples of other social media policies, such as that implemented by the federal General Services Administration (GSA) and the City of Hampton, Virginia. He explained that GSA’s policy has been in place for several years and has been vetted, and shaped based upon legal challenges to employees’ First Amendment Rights and that Hampton’s policy was being provided to allow members the opportunity to review a municipal policy. Mr. Anderson noted that the State of Delaware does not regulate behavior in the manner proposed by staff and that Kent County recently considered doing so and declined to implement such a policy. In response to Mr. Hare, Mrs. Hawkins stated that the City had not experienced any concerns related to social media but that the policy was created in an effort to be proactive in this matter. Mr. Richard Morse, 100 West 10th Street in Wilmington, stated that he represented the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) in Delaware and referred to correspondence that he had previously provided to members regarding the applicable law and details as to why the proposed policy is a clear violation of the First Amendment. Although he understood the reasoning behind attempting to establish such a policy, Mr. Morse stated that it was clear that such regulations are impermissible. He explained that the right to free speech means that the government can not regulate what Americans can say, whether or not they are employees of the government. Mr. Bonar stated that government has been proactive on so many occasions that it has caused government to sometimes overstep its bounds and he felt that the proposed policy was not necessary at this time. Responding to Mrs. Williams, Mr. Koenig explained that the proposed Policy was inherited from his predecessor and that he requested that the matter be brought forward for consideration, noting that staff attended the seminar in March 2011 and that this has been “unfinished” business. Rather than simply implementing the Social Media Policy, he felt that the matter should be reviewed through the Committee in order for City Council to be made aware of the issues, both from the standpoint of the employee and staff’s responsibility to promote the City in a positive way. It was his opinion that the Policy was created to inform employees that, although they have a work life separate from their personal life, there are things that an employee may say and do outside of work that can affect the workplace, co-workers, and the body for which they work, and that employees

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF SEPTEMBER 26, 2011 PAGE 14 should understand that they will be accountable for their statements and actions, not only at work but also during their personal time. Mr. Koenig noted that individual lives are more public and the world is moving faster than ever before and that once something is on the Internet, it is there for everyone to view and sometimes, negative consequences result. He explained that this was the impetus for bringing this matter forward, that there are no looming issues, and he would not object if members do not wish to move forward on this issue at this time. Mr. Lynn commended Mr. Koenig for taking responsibility and his good intentions in bringing this matter forward. The Committee recommended withdrawing the Social Media Policy from any further consideration. By consent agenda, Mr. Hare moved for approval of the Committee’s recommendation, seconded by Dr. McGlumphy and carried by a unanimous roll call vote (Mrs. Russell absent). Dr. McGlumphy moved for acceptance of the Legislative, Finance, and Administration Committee Report, seconded by Mr. Bonar and unanimously carried. MONTHLY REPORT - JULY 2011 - CAPITAL INVESTMENT PLAN (CIP) REPORT By motion of Mr. Hare, seconded by Dr. McGlumphy, the Monthly CIP Report for July 2011 was accepted by consent agenda. FIRST READING - PROPOSED ORDINANCE #2011-15 Council President Leary reminded the public that copies of Proposed Ordinance #2011-15 were available at the entrance of the Council Chambers or could be obtained from the City Clerk's Office. It was recommended for referral to the Planning Commission on October 17, 2011 and that final action by Council on the proposed ordinance will take place during the Council Meeting of November 14, 2011. Mr. Hutchison moved to refer Proposed Ordinance #2011-15 to the Planning Commission on October 17, 2011 and that a Final Reading take place during the Regular Council Meeting of November 14, 2011. The motion was seconded by Mr. Bonar and unanimously carried. In accordance with Section 1-9 of the Dover Code, Council acknowledged the First Reading of the Ordinance Amendment as read by the City Clerk, by title only, as follows: APPENDIX A - SUBDIVISIONS - ARTICLE VII - SPECIAL PROVISIONS (REGARDING HOMEOWNERS’ ASSOCIATIONS) FINAL READING - PROPOSED ORDINANCE #2011-22 The First Reading of Proposed Ordinance #2011-22 was accomplished during the Council Meeting of September 12, 2011. Chapter 106 - Traffic and Vehicles, Article III - Stopping, Standing and Parking, Division 2 - Metered Parking Related to Immobilization of Vehicles Mr. Hare moved that the Final Reading of Proposed Ordinance #2011-22 be acknowledged by title only, seconded by Mr. Hutchison and unanimously carried.

CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF SEPTEMBER 26, 2011 PAGE 15 Mr. Hutchison moved for adoption of the Proposed Ordinance, seconded by Mrs. Williams. Responding to Mr. Anderson, Mr. Bonar noted that significant parking fines are owed to the City on a regular basis and that the City has a general idea of where those who owe these fines work. He felt assured that police officers would make sure that the use of the boots would provide as little inconvenience to other parkers as possible. He stated that violators would be responsible for towing fees. Mr. Bonar noted that there was a significant amount of revenue to be gained and the expense of purchasing the boots was minor compared to the revenue that would be received. The motion for adoption of the Proposed Ordinance was carried by a roll call vote of seven (7) yes, one (1) abstention (Mr. Anderson), and one (1) absent (Mrs. Russell), and Council adopted Ordinance #2011-22 Amending Chapter 106 - Traffic and Vehicles, Article III - Stopping, Standing and Parking, Division 2 - Metered Parking, Section 106-164 and Appendix F – Fees and Fines (Exhibit #3). COUNCIL MEMBERS ANNOUNCEMENTS Mrs. Williams stated that Councilwoman Russell is recovering and that, while she is home recuperating, she would appreciate any meals that could be provided. Mr. Bonar reminded those present that there would be 80,000-130,000 visitors in the City for the Nascar races during the upcoming weekend. Noting the contributions made to the City’s economy by these visitors, he suggested that these visitors be thanked. By unanimous consent, the meeting adjourned at 7:57 P.M. TRACI A.

PETITION TO AMEND AND ZONING DISTRICT Public Hearing before the Dover City Council October 10, 2011 Applicant/Owner: EJB, Inc. Address: 327 Martin Street, Dover Location: East side of Martin Street and southeast of the intersection Court Street and South DuPont Highway (Route 13) Tax Parcel ID #: ED05-077.10-01-48.00-000 Size: 0.277 acres ± (11,744 S.F. +/-) Present Use: Substance abuse treatment center destroyed by fire Proposed Use: Substance abuse treatment center Comprehensive Plan Designation: Commercial Present Zoning: C-4 (Highway Commercial Zone) Proposed Zoning: IO (Institutional/Office Zone) Reason for Request: To more closely align the zoning of the property with the current/proposed use on the site. Recommendation of the Planning Commission: Following a public hearing before the Planning Commission on September 19, 2011, where no members of the public spoke in favor of or in opposition to the proposed rezoning, the Planning Commission unanimously recommended in favor of the requested rezoning from C-4 (Highway Commercial) to IO (Institutional and Office), with eight members voting in favor of the rezoning and one member absent. File Number: Z-11-06

Z-11-06 Lands EJB, Inc. at 327 Martin Street Report to City Council – October 10, 2011 Page 2 This rezoning application consists of one parcel of land, of approximately 11,744 SF (0.277 acres), owned by EJB, Inc. The property is currently C-4 (Highway Commercial zone). The proposed zoning is IO (Institutional and Office zone). The subject property is located on Martin Street, just east of U.S. Route 13, south of Court Street, and west of Bay Road. Tax Parcel: ED05-077.10-01-48.00-000. Existing Property: The subject property is the location of Serenity Place, a substance abuse treatment center. The treatment center was a legal, non-conforming use within the C-4 (Highway Commercial) zone, and was destroyed by fire in June 2011. According to the Zoning Ordinance, Article 7 – Nonconforming Buildings and Uses: 1.2 Except as provided in paragraph [subsection] 1.4 below, no building which houses a non-conforming use shall be: 1.21 Structurally altered or enlarged; or 1.22 Moved to another location where such use would be nonconforming; or 1.23 Restored for other than a conforming use after damage from any cause exceeding 75 percent of the replacement cost of such building, exclusive of foundations. Any such building damage[d] to a lesser extent may be restored, but not enlarged, and the nonconforming use reinstated within one year of such damage; [however,] if the restoration of such building is not completed within the said one-year period, the nonconforming use of such building shall be deemed to have been discontinued, unless such nonconforming use is carried on without interruption in the undamaged portion of such building. In the case of Serenity Place, due to the degree of fire damage, the building cannot be restored. Additionally, the applicant wishes to expand the size of the building during restoration, which is not permitted under the provisions of the Zoning Ordinance, Article 7. Surrounding Land Uses: The surrounding land uses are commercial in nature and all of the properties in the vicinity of the subject property are zoned C-4 (Highway Commercial). Comprehensive Plan: In the 2008 Comprehensive Plan, the Land Development Plan (Map 12-1 as amended, dated 4/11/2011) recommends that this property be used for Commercial Uses. Both the existing and proposed zoning classifications are consistent with this land use classification, according to Table 12-1: Land Use and Zoning Matrix. Request for IO (Institutional and Office Zone) The types of permitted uses in the IO (Institutional and Office) are given Article 3 §10 of the Zoning Ordinance. The permitted uses include the following: 10.11 Business, professional, or governmental offices, and research, design and development laboratories, located entirely within a building on the same lot therewith, including incidental clinics, cafeterias and recreational facilities for the exclusive use of company employees.

Z-11-06 Lands EJB, Inc. at 327 Martin Street Report to City Council – October 10, 2011 Page 3 10.12 Public and institutional uses including hospitals, sanitariums for general medical care, medical clinics, libraries, police stations, courthouses, transit centers, motor vehicle storage and repair facilities accessory to a public or institutional use, schools, colleges and universities, places of worship, philanthropic and eleemosynary institutions, parks, playgrounds, public indoor recreation centers, civic centers, athletic fields and public utility rights-of-way and structures necessary to serve areas within the city. 10.13 Restaurants accessory to permitted uses located on the same lot. 10.14 Signs shall meet the regulations found in article 5, section 4, supplementary sign regulations. 10.15 Day care centers, provided they are established in accordance with all applicable state regulations pertaining to child care and provided that they are established and maintained in accordance with article 5, section 14 of this ordinance. 10.16 The following uses are permitted, conditional upon the approval of the planning commission in accordance with the procedures and subject to the general conditions set forth in article 10, section 1: (a) Firearm ranges, prisons and correctional facilities. (b) Public incinerators. (c) Hotels and restaurants. The variety and types of uses permitted in the IO (Institutional and Office) zone are fewer and generally more restrictive than those permitted in the C-4 (Highway Commercial) zone. Specifically, the IO zone does not permit retail and service commercial establishments, while the C-4 zone does permit these types of uses. Article 4, Section 4.15 of the Zoning Ordinance addresses the bulk standards for the both the C-4 and IO zones. The bulk standards are as follows: C-4 IO Minimum required: Lot area Lot width (ft.) 150 per building 50 Lot depth (ft.) 150 100 Front yard (ft.) 30 20 Side yard (ft.) 25 10 Rear yard (ft.) 10 or equal to bldg. 15 or equal to bldgs. height height Side or rear yards which adjoin a 30 30 residence zone (ft.) Off-street parking Per 300 sq. ft. floor area or 1½ 1 Per employee (whichever is greater) 1 1 Maximum permitted:

Z-11-06 Lands EJB, Inc. at 327 Martin Street Report to City Council – October 10, 2011 Page 4 Building height Stories 4 10 Feet 45 130 Floor area ratio 2.0 4.0 Lot coverage 85% Recommendation of the Planning Staff and Planning Commission: This request is to rezone land from C-4 (Highway Commercial) to IO (Institutional and Office). Staff supports the applicant’s request, as the request is consistent with the 2008 Comprehensive Plan as amended. Staff notes that approval of the rezoning would create a small parcel zoned IO surrounded by properties zoned C-4; however, due to the nature of the IO zone, it is fairly common throughout the City to have single parcels with the IO zone surrounded by parcels with different zoning classifications. In addition, the scale of redevelopment of the site (i.e. building size, height, and impervious surface coverage) will be limited by the bulk standards of the IO zone when applied to this small parcel. The staff recommendation was made prior to the opportunity for public comment. Following a public hearing before the Planning Commission on September 19, 2011, where no members of the public spoke in favor of or in opposition to the proposed rezoning, the Planning Commission unanimously recommended in favor of the requested rezoning from C-4 (Highway Commercial) to IO (Institutional and Office), with eight members voting in favor of the rezoning and one member absent. An excerpt of the draft minutes of the Planning Commission discussion on the application is attached.

Z-11-06 Lands EJB, Inc. at 327 Martin Street Report to City Council – October 10, 2011 Page 5 Excerpt from the Draft Minutes of the Planning Commission Meeting of September 19, 2011 Z-11-06 Lands of EJB, Inc. at 327 Martin Street: Serenity Place - Public Hearing and Review for Recommendation for a rezoning application consisting of one parcel of land totaling of 0.277 acres ± (11,744 S.F. +/-). The property is currently zoned C-4 (Highway Commercial Zone). The proposed zoning is IO (Institutional/Office Zone). The subject property is located on the east side of Martin Street and southeast of the intersection Court Street and South DuPont Highway (Route 13). The owner of record is EJB, Inc. The lessee is Serenity Place, Inc. Property Address: 327 Martin Street. Tax Parcel: ED05-077.10-01-48.00-000. Council District 2. Representative: Mr. Bill Boyles, Executive Director for Serenity Place. Mrs. Townshend stated that the present use is a substance abuse treatment center that was destroyed by fire. The proposed use would rebuild the substance abuse treatment center. The substance abuse and treatment center was viewed as a non-conforming use that had been in place for a number of years. She has had a number of conversations with the applicant as they were going to be doing some work there; however, were limited in their ability to expand because of its non-conforming status. In terms of the surrounding land uses, all of the properties surrounding the subject property are zoned C-4 which is Highway Commercial and they are developed commercial properties. Mrs. Townshend further stated that the Comprehensive Plan identifies this area for commercial uses. Both the existing C-4 zoning and the requested IO zoning are consistent with this request. The Staff Report gives you a summary of the uses permitted in the IO zone. The IO zone does not permit retail and service commercial establishments as the C-4 zone does. These are different zones so we provided information on both of those zones. Mrs. Townshend further stated that Staff notes the approval of the Rezoning would create a small parcel zoned IO surrounding by C-4. However, due to the nature of the IO zone, this is a fairly common occurrence throughout the City to have single parcels that are zoned IO and surrounded by parcels that are not IO. It is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. Staff recommends in favor of the rezoning. In addition, we would note while when you look at the bulk standards it looks like you could build a really big building there, the bulk standards, particularly the floor area ratio, parking, coverage, those bulk standards would essentially keep it to be a reasonably sized structure especially on this size parcel that they have. Mr. Boyles stated that they have been here for twenty (20) years and we plan to be there a lot longer. We have helped over a thousand men with substance abuse issues. At this time, we envision rebuilding not a very large structure; however, a two story building in which we had a capacity of ten (10) beds. With the ability to start from scratch and with the efficient use of the land, we feel that we could double our capacity and serve the community twice as better if not more. We would do two (2) floors, approximately 5,000 square feet, and hope to get this rolling very soon. Demolition is scheduled for the beginning of next week. Mr. Nichols questioned with regards to the patients who stay there, how long is the average stay? Responding to Mr. Nichols, Mr. Boyles stated that the minimum requirement for coming to Serenity Place is a three (3) month commitment. On average the stay is approximately eight (8) to nine (9) months and some stay even a little longer up to eighteen (18) months. It will vary client to client.

Z-11-06 Lands EJB, Inc. at 327 Martin Street Report to City Council – October 10, 2011 Page 6 Mr. Nichols further questioned how many could stay there? Responding to Mr. Nichols, Mr. Boyles stated that on this location we had a maximum of ten (10) clients and we stay full and typically have a waiting list. Mr. Holt stated that he knows you had a fire; have you determined what the cause of the fire was? Responding to Mr. Holt, Mr. Boyles stated yes, it was a cigarette in the mulch in the front yard and not sure whether it came from interior or someone walking by. The breeze was blowing towards the house that day and went up into the handicap accessible wooden ramp which was very dry and then jumped up into the house. Fortunately, no one was injured. Mr. Hemmig opened a public hearing and after seeing no one wishing to speak closed the public hearing. Colonel Welsh moved to forward a recommendation of approval to City Council for Z-11-06 Lands of EJB, Inc. located at 327 Martin Street: Serenity Place Rezoning from C-4 to IO, seconded by Mr. Ambruso and the motion was unanimously carried 8-0 with Mr. Friedman absent.

Representatives: None Mrs. Townshend stated that this proposed amendment does essentially two (2) things as it relates to swimming pools. One it pulls the details of the location of the pools in terms of property lines out of Article 3 which is the section of the Zoning Ordinance that spells out the permitted uses and places those requirements in Article 5: Supplementary Regulations. It makes the Code easier to read if you are a member of the public trying to figure out where to put your pool and how to do it. Mrs. Townshend further stated that the other thing that this does is it more closely aligns the Zoning requirements relating to swimming pools with those requirements within the Building Code. The Code, as it stands today, has conflicting provisions that tend to create confusion even among Staff. So if Staff gets confused then you can imagine that the public is getting confused as well and it frequently puts us in a situation that limits our ability to be customer friendly. We thought it would be prudent to align the Building Code requirements for swimming pools with the Zoning requirements for swimming pools so that we can eliminate any potential overlap or conflict. Colonel Welsh stated that the only thing that he has a concern about is the requirement for a fence. Responding to Colonel Welsh, Mrs. Townshend stated that there is a requirement in the Building Code for a four (4) foot safety barrier which in most cases is going to be a fence. If you have a hard walled swimming pool or one that is entirely surrounded by a deck that has fencing around the deck as long as those elements are four (4) feet sometimes the fence would not be required. However, the four (4) foot safety barrier is required under the Building Code. Mr. Hemmig opened a public hearing and after seeing no one wishing to speak closed the public hearing. Mr. Tolbert moved to forward recommendation of approval to City Council for MI-11-09 Text Amendment: Revisions to Article 3 and Article 5 of the Zoning Ordinance regarding Swimming Pools, seconded by Mr. Holt and the motion was unanimously approved 8-0 with Mr. Friedman absent.

COMPENSATION COMMISSION The Compensation Commission meeting was held on September 20, 2011 at 4:13 p.m. with Chairman Hogan presiding. Members present were Mr. Cook, Mr. Perza, Mrs. Webb, Mrs. Hawkins (Human Resources Director), and Mrs. Mitchell (Controller/Treasurer). Dr. Williams was absent. AGENDA ADDITIONS/DELETIONS By unanimous consent, members approved the agenda as presented. Compensation for the Mayor, City Council, and Paid Members of City Committees, Commissions, and Boards Mr. Hogan reiterated that the goal of the Commission was to develop a recommendation to Council regarding compensation for: 1) City Council, 2) the Mayor, and 3) members of City committees, commissions, and boards. He suggested that the Commission begin its task by formulating a recommendation in regard to City Council. City Council Mrs. Webb stated that she could not support a raise for Council in the current economic climate. Mr. Cook felt that the Commission should establish a basis for their recommendation to Council regarding the level of compensation suggested. He noted that Council members are currently paid $7,416 per year and that a survey regarding Council’s responsibilities revealed that members work an average of 20 hours per week (half-time). He advised members that the federal minimum wage is currently $7.25 per hour and that 20 hours per week at that rate would total $7,540 per year. Mr. Cook moved to recommend that Council’s level of compensation be changed to $7,540 annually, that this be the basis for future evaluation and recommendations regarding compensation, and that the Council President receive an additional 15% of this amount, or an annual salary of $8,671. In response to Mrs. Hawkins, Mr. Cook stated that, under this proposal, if the federal minimum wage were to increase, this could be addressed during the Compensation Commission’s regularly scheduled review of compensation. Mr. Perza felt that tying compensation to the minimum wage rate could bring unintended consequences in the future. Mrs. Webb noted that, since this was the first time the Compensation Commission would be presenting a recommendation to Council, their initial recommendation could serve as the basis for reviewing this issue in the future. The motion to recommend that Council’s level of compensation be changed to $7,540 annually, that this be the basis for future evaluation and recommendations regarding compensation and that the Council President receive an additional 15% of this amount, or an annual salary of $8,671, failed for lack of a second.

COMPENSATION COMMISSION MEETING OF SEPTEMBER 20, 2011 PAGE 2 Mr. Hogan suggested that the Commission advise Council that, in reviewing this matter, members found that the current salary was reasonable and just for the work that Council members perform. Mrs. Webb moved to recommend that, because: 1) in reviewing this matter, the Commission found that current Council salaries are very similar to compensation at the current federal minimum wage level for a half-time (20 hour per week) position; and 2) there was no empirical data or overwhelming public sentiment that demonstrated that change was indicated, current salary levels for City Council remain unchanged. The motion was seconded by Mr. Cook and unanimously carried. Mayor In reviewing the Mayor’s salary, Mr. Hogan noted that there was no strong public opinion regarding a change in the current level of compensation. Mr. Cook moved to recommend that the Mayor’s salary and compensation remain at the current level ($45,000), in view of the lack of evidence of strong public opinion to support a change, seconded by Mr. Perza and unanimously carried. City Committees, Commissions, and Boards In considering compensation for members of City committees, commissions, and boards, Mr. Hogan felt that the City provides fair compensation to these individuals. He noted that members of the Election Board have had a decrease in responsibility since their compensation was set; however, he noted that they are involved in the City’s redistricting process which occurs every ten (10) years following the census. Mrs. Webb moved to recommend that no changes be made in the compensation of paid members of the City’s committees, commissions, and boards but that Council review the compensation and work responsibilities of the members of the Election Board due to changes made by the State in regard to their duties. The motion was seconded by Mr. Perza and unanimously carried. By unanimous consent, members agreed that the previous recommendations made by the Commission be incorporated in their final recommendations to be presented to City Council on October 10, 2011, as follows: 1) It is recommended that staff be directed to distribute a survey to outgoing members of Council each year, prior to their departure, to obtain information regarding the responsibilities and time commitment involved in service. 2) It is recommended that staff be directed to perform comparisons with other jurisdictions each year regarding the rates of compensation for the Mayor, Council, and paid members of committees, commissions, and boards.

UTILITY COMMITTEE The Utility Committee Meeting was held on September 26, 2011 at 5:00 p.m. with Chairman Bonar presiding. Members present were Mr. Lynn, Mrs. Williams, Mr. Blakeman, and Mr. Snaman. Other members of Council present were Council President Leary (arrived at 5:15 p.m.) , Mr. Hutchison, and Mr. Hare. Mayor Carey was also present. AGENDA ADDITIONS/DELETIONS By unanimous consent, the agenda was approved as presented. Discussion - Informational Presentation by Delaware Electric Cooperative (Referred Back to Committee by Council on September 12, 2011) During the Legislative, Finance, and Administration Committee meeting of August 22, 2011, staff presented a response to the Delaware Electric Cooperative (DEC) presentation of June 27, 2011. The Committee recommended that the City proceed with a Request for Proposals (RFP) for an independent study to be conducted by an entity that is not currently or planned to be associated with the City of Dover, the DEC, or any other local electric company, to determine the feasibility of the City remaining in the electric business, the possibility of getting out of the electric business, and the anticipated ramifications of either approach. During their Regular Meeting of September 12, 2011, City Council considered the Committee’s recommendation and referred further this matter back to the Utility Committee for discussion of the sale of the electric department and the issuance of an RFP for an independent study regarding the possible sale and disposition of the utility, including a Cost of Service Study. Mr. Blakeman felt that there was a need to obtain information, including the cost of replacement for generation and the life expectancy of current generation, that would allow the City to make a reasonable decision, and that a rate study would also be helpful. In addition, he stated that there should be a general review of the City’s position in the Pennsylvania, Jersey, Maryland Interconnection (PJM) and how this impacts the City’s ability to purchase power and meet capacity requirements by purchase of capacity, ownership of capacity, and/or generation to sell. Mr. Hare requested assurance that, if is determined that the City should continue in the electric business, the study would determine if there are inefficiencies. In response to Mr. Hutchison, Mr. Blakeman recalled that in 1992 a cost of generation and necessity of generation study was conducted. He stated that the City’s contract with Duke Energy (1996) was the result of an offer made by Delmarva Power and Light (DP&L) to purchase the City Electric Department (including generation, customers, etc.). With regard to an Integrated Resource Plan (IRP), Mr. Ron Lunt, Public Utilities Director, advised members that PACE Global Energy Services previously completed five (5) year plans and that The Energy Authority (TEA) is ready to conduct a more elaborate and detailed five (5) year plan as a part of their contract. Staff has also discussed an IRP with TEA, which would be over and above their contract. He anticipated that staff will be submitting a request to City Council later in the year for a 20-year IRP.

UTILITY COMMITTEE MEETING OF SEPTEMBER 26, 2011 PAGE 2 Responding to Mrs. Williams, Mr. Lunt stated that the cost of an IRP would be approximately $300,000 and require an extended period of time to complete. Mrs. Donna Mitchell, Controller/Treasurer, stated that she reviewed the July 5, 2011 letter from the DEC, including the illustrative example provided of paying $120M and the valuation methods utilized. She advised members that she applied the City’s numbers to the valuation methods used and relayed concern that the DEC numbers appeared extremely understated. Referring to the Net Valuation Method included in the DEC Consultant’s Report, she stated that the City’s amount would equate to $188M versus $120M, the number of customers method would equate to $162.7M versus $120M, and the revenue valuation method would equate to $196.5M versus $120M. Mrs. Mitchell questioned if the City should pursue this matter further without a serious offer and explained that, although conducting such a study would provide the City with details, it might not be worth the expense and time if no action is taken by City Council. She noted that performing such a study would be a very time consuming process, not only for the company selected to conduct the study, but also for staff. Should the City move forward, she stated that she has concerns with the methodology and whether the City would receive the best price for its assets. Mrs. Mitchell advised members that, when reviewing the $120M listed in the DEC example, they should be aware that the City currently has $35.4M in bonds and $29.4M in retirement liabilities that must be paid; therefore, she requested that members take into consideration all of the economic factors when deciding whether the City should move forward with this process. Mr. Hare felt that the City was not presented with DEC’s best offer; however, without a study, he did not feel that the City could respond with a counteroffer. Responding, Mrs. Mitchell suggested that the City present DEC with the City’s preliminary numbers and determine if DEC still has a desire to purchase the City’s utility. For clarification, Mr. Bonar explained that the DEC’s presentation was provided for informational purposes only as a starting point of discussion and should not be considered as an offer by DEC. He stated that DEC or another entity may make an offer. If the City brought forward a study that showed the Electric Department operations were worth between $200M and $300M as a sale price through a purchase, this amount would more than offset the revenue derived from the electric utility in interest alone. In addition, he stated that the City could eliminate 25% of its payroll expenses (employees of the City’s Electric Department) through the sale of the utility. Mr. Bonar explained that these were issues that must be considered by Council and that members should not make a judgement without a professional review, which has never been completed in the history of the City’s ownership of the electric operation. Mr. Bonar stated that consideration of this matter must consist of a step-by-step process that involves evaluation of every aspect, not just the $7M-$8M received through the electric utility, but whether this income can be offset by interest, whether electric costs for City residents and businesses can be reduced, if the City can reduce payroll, and if the City’s utility remains a viable and reliable portion of the local economy.

UTILITY COMMITTEE MEETING OF SEPTEMBER 26, 2011 PAGE 3 Mr. Hare reminded members that DEC offered to pay for half the cost of a study if the City were to make their offer public. Mrs. Williams moved to recommend approval of a Request for Proposals for a Cost of Service Study to determine the valuation of the entire City of Dover electric system and all appendices to include generation, distribution, personnel costs, etc. The motion was seconded by Mr. Snaman and carried with Mr. Lynn voting no. Cost of Service Study to be Performed on the Electric Utility and the Possibility of Allowing Some Rate Classes to Shop for Services See the discussion and action on the above item. Review of Utility Related Capital Investment Plan (CIP) (Electric and Water/Wastewater) Members were provided a Project Tracking Report, as of July 31, 2011, for the Utility (Electric and Water/Wastewater) Related Capital Investment Plan (CIP). Responding to Mr. Blakeman regarding the Unit #3 turbine inspection, Mr. Ron Lunt, Public Utilities Director, stated that a borescope is utilized to conduct the inspection. TEA/NAES Monthly Report (July) The TEA/NAES Monthly Report for July 2011 was provided to members to enable them to monitor electric sales and revenues received, which will provide a better understanding of any fluctuations that occur and allow the opportunity to make improvements if deemed necessary. By unanimous consent, the TEA/NAES Monthly Report for July was accepted as presented. Mrs. Williams requested that staff provide all Committee members with copies of a report entitled “Dover Energy 2030 - Frequently Asked Questions.” Mr. Bonar relayed appreciation for staff’s invitation to attend the recent planning meeting at the Electric Plant, which he stated was very helpful and informative. He expressed his gratitude for the hard work performed by staff and acknowledged that this was a difficult time for the Electric Division staff as well as for City Council. By unanimous consent, the meeting adjourned at 5:27 P.M. David L. Bonar Chairman DLB/jg/js/dd/tm S:\AGENDAS & MINUTES\Committee-Minutes\2011\09-26-2011 UTILITY.wpd

LEGISLATIVE, FINANCE, AND ADMINISTRATION COMMITTEE The Legislative, Finance, and Administration Committee meeting was held on September 26, 2011 at 5:30 p.m. with Chairman McGlumphy presiding. Members present were Mr. Anderson, Mr. Hare, Dr. Jones, and Mr. Shevock. Members of Council present were Mr. Bonar (arrived at 5:38 p.m. and departed at 6:42 p.m.), Mr. Hutchison, Mr. Lynn (arrived at 5:32 p.m., departed at 6:40 p.m., and returned at 6:54 p.m.), Mrs. Williams (departed at 6:02 p.m. and returned at 6:44 p.m.), and Council President Leary (departed at 6:42 p.m. and returned at 6:45 p.m.). Mayor Carey (departed at 6:42 p.m. and returned at 6:47 p.m.) was also present. AGENDA ADDITIONS/DELETIONS Chairman McGlumphy requested that Item #9 - Proposed City of Dover Prescription Assistance Plan be moved to Item #4 to accommodate the attendance of a guest from New Jersey. Mr. Hare moved for approval of the agenda, as amended, seconded by Mr. Shevock and unanimously carried. Discontinuation of Pay for Performance (PFP) Evaluation Form and Review of Proposed Evaluation Form (Deferred by Committee on August 22, 2011 Due to Time Constraints) Mr. Scott Koenig, Interim City Manager, reviewed performance appraisal forms, as follows: 1) the current City of Dover Pay for Performance (PFP) Evaluation for Non-Council Appointed Positions; 2) the current City of Dover PFP Evaluation for Council Appointed Positions; 3) a sample State of Delaware Employee Performance Review; and 4) a sample Dover Police Department Civilian Employee Evaluation Form. He suggested discontinuation of the City’s current PFP Evaluation Forms, explaining that employees who use the forms find them to be cumbersome, noting that they are 12 pages long. He indicated the importance of having an evaluation tool; however, he suggested that members consider a shorter and less cumbersome evaluation form. Mr. Koenig advised members that utilizing core competencies for non-bargaining employees has worked well and suggested including three (3) to five (5) goals rather than 10-15. Referring to the sample evaluation form for the State of Delaware, he felt that it would not provide the evaluation mechanism necessary for City staff. Mr. Koenig noted that the Dover Police Department form requires less written support documentation; however, it does not provide much flexibility in the evaluation and is lengthy due to the instruction packet. He advised members that staff also considered Kent County’s evaluation form; however, the instructions were 20-25 pages in length, which he felt was problematic. Staff recommended the use of a revised evaluation form that would utilize the strengths of the PFP evaluation forms and adapt them to include the strengths of the Dover Police Department Civilian Employee Evaluation Form. Mr. Hare stated that it was his experience that goals are often a routine part of an employee’s job and he did not feel that a 4-5 page evaluation form was necessary. In addition, he suggested a review of employee job descriptions. Concurring, Mr. Koenig stated that there are many instances where job descriptions do not reflect an employee’s duties and responsibilities. He concurred that, as a supervisor, he is aware if an employee is performing well or not; however, he noted the necessity for evaluation forms as court documentation in the event of employee dismissal. Mr. Koenig explained that performance appraisal forms meet the needs of both the employer and employee.

LEGISLATIVE, FINANCE, AND ADM INISTRATION COM M ITTEE M EETING OF SEPTEM BER 26, 2011 (CONTINUED ON SEPTEM BER 29, 2011) PAGE 2 Dr. Jones suggested that staff develop a revised evaluation form appropriate for non-bargaining employees and consider the difference between goals and objectives. She felt that an evaluation form should include objectives for the employee, explaining that goals are established for the position or organization and that objectives are time based and measurable and help to determine an employee’s level of performance. It was her opinion that the purpose of an evaluation was not only to evaluate an employee over a given period of time but also to assist in planning growth for an employee. Concurring with Dr. McGlumphy, Mr. Hare felt that staff should consider the use of the Dover Police Department Civilian Employee Evaluation Form. Dr. McGlumphy requested that staff take the Committee’s comments into consideration and develop a revised evaluation form to be brought back to the Committee. Recommendation of the Health Benefits Committee Regarding Elimination of Medicare Part B Reimbursements for Current Non-Bargaining Employees (Referred to Committee by LF&A on June 27, 2011) Mrs. Kimberly Hawkins, Human Resources Director, reminded members that, as directed by the Legislative, Finance, and Administration Committee during their meeting of June 27, 2011, the Health Benefits Committee considered the proposal to eliminate Medicare Part B reimbursement for current non-bargaining employees at their meeting held on August 16, 2011. She reported that the Health Benefits Committee recommended that the Medicare Part B reimbursements for non-bargaining employees remain unchanged. Mr. Scott Koenig, Interim City Manager, explained that the City has been attempting to address budget issues and that by the end of October 18 positions will be vacant, resulting in organizational gaps throughout the City. He stated that staff is struggling with how to develop and maintain a balanced budget for Fiscal Year 2013. Mr. Koenig noted that at the beginning of Fiscal Year 2012-13, it is estimated that the City will be $5M further “in the hole” than in the current year, and that this is being driven by retiree health care benefit funding and other post-employment benefits. Taking this into consideration, Mr. Koenig stated that there has been much discussion regarding the reimbursement of Medicare Part B. He noted that there are approximately 82 non- bargaining employees who would be eligible for Medicare Part B reimbursement between now and the date the employee turns 65 years old. This benefit amounts to approximately $115 per month. Mr. Koenig explained that his recommendation to impose a cap is due to the cost involved, noting that approximately $9.8M would be necessary to fund this benefit between the current year and 2053. The proposed $200 cap would drop this obligation to $4.8M and he felt that a $200 cap was a reasonable trade to preserve the benefit. Mr. Koenig explained that his concern was that if action is not taken to preserve the benefit, at some point this benefit will be eliminated. He clarified that the proposed cap would apply only to the 82 current non-bargaining employees and was not intended to affect any employee who is already retired. He also stated that his intention would be to set a date for instituting the cap rather than making the change effective immediately, which would provide those employees wishing to retire an opportunity to do so before the cap is established.

LEGISLATIVE, FINANCE, AND ADM INISTRATION COM M ITTEE M EETING OF SEPTEM BER 26, 2011 (CONTINUED ON SEPTEM BER 29, 2011) PAGE 3 Ms. Diane Glenn, 218 Northdown Drive, read the following statement into the record: “Good Evening, my name is Diane Glenn. In 1993, I moved from New Castle County to Dover to work with Dover Police to establish a Victim Services Program. When I was offered the job, I carefully thought about this move I was making and the impact this would have on my future. I thought about the opportunities that this job would provide me and I reviewed the benefits because at that point in my life, I was at an age where it was equally important for me to know that the benefits that were offered were in line for what my needs were for future retirement. I fully committed to the City of Dover over 18 years ago based on the above. What was offered to me was in line with what I wanted and I couldn't have chosen a better place to come and work. Years ago, the three unions had an opportunity to negotiate with the City about Medicare Part B, they chose to negotiate this away in exchange for other compensation. As a non bargaining employee, those same opportunities to negotiate have not been afforded to me. I am not able to sit at the table to discuss or bargain with the City. I come here tonight, because it is the only forum in which I am able to at least voice my opinion and let you know where I stand. Tonight, I want to go on record as stating that I am not in agreement with the Legislative and Finance Committees proposal to eliminate Medicare Part B for non bargaining employees AND I do not support the idea that a cap be put on either for the City or an employee. I want the plan to stay in place from when I was hired. I fully understand the financial climate that faces government entities be it on the federal state, or municipal level. I understand that corporations as well struggle with the same questions, however policy within government agencies is generally to make changes to retirement plans for incoming employees and has never affected plans for those employee already in place. Every day it is expected that I come to work and that I act in a professional manner. I am expected to respond at a moment's notice day and night to emergency situations and provide crisis support to crime victims and survivors and I am expected to do my job to the best of my ability. I will do no less than my best and I will continue to provide the quality of care that each person deserves AND I expect that the City plan in which I was hired continue to remain intact for my future retirement. Thank you for giving me this opportunity to speak tonight.”

She stated that Medicare Part B Reimbursement was a benefit, a promise made by the City of Dover to her as an employee. Noting that non-bargaining employees do not have the ability to negotiate benefits, she stated that if this benefit is eliminated, the City would be breaking a promise made to these employees when hired. She reminded members that this matter was considered in 2009 and City Council confirmed at that time that this benefit was promised to these employees and should be retained; therefore, she questioned why this matter is being presented again for consideration. She suggested that the budget issues be addressed equally and not be placed on 82 individuals who, as non-bargaining employees, do not have a voice. Ms. Robin Adkins, 27 Waterwheel Circle, read the following statement into the record: “I'd like to thank you for this opportunity to speak. It is an honor to work for the Dover Police Department and I am truly thankful that I am employed in a position that I enjoy. However, the handling of the Medicare-B entitlement issue for non-bargaining employees has been very disappointing. I have survived a lot of hard economic times and challenges throughout my 30 plus years of federal and municipal government experience. As a member of the military, I served many years overseas and stateside. We worked a lot of hours, withstood a lot of hardships including extended family separations. We worked through issues such as Gramm-Rudman budget cuts, military base closures, Desert Storm and others. The pay was sufficient, but our dedication to the larger picture of National Defense was more important. Morale was fairly high because our leadership treated us fairly and with respect, according to the standards and policies in place to keep it that way. Unions weren't needed in most areas because the leadership did the right thing to take care of us. I've been working for the City of Dover for almost eleven years. I consider myself to be among a group of similarly dedicated individuals in the city employed as mid and department level managers, technicians, professionals and their assistants. We are educated, so many of us have undergraduate degrees, graduate degrees and/or professional certifications. We are collectively responsible for maintaining the continuity of the outstanding services this city provides to the community, so we are a stable and dependable group. However, we do not belong to any union because our positions disqualify us from joining one. All I want to ask you today is why can't ALL City employees be treated fairly and equitably? The union Groups within the city negotiated annual pay raises in their contracts and negotiated away their Medicare B entitlements. However, we non-union employees are expected to sacrifice pay raises year after year and Medicare B entitlements for the "greater good". We have not been asked to participate in any form of negotiations for these items so the loss of ANY portion of the Medicare-B entitlement should not be considered fair and equitable since we had no say in determining any of the reductions to that entitlement.

LEGISLATIVE, FINANCE, AND ADM INISTRATION COM M ITTEE M EETING OF SEPTEM BER 26, 2011 (CONTINUED ON SEPTEM BER 29, 2011) PAGE 5 I do acknowledge the hard economic times we are currently experiencing, but you as members of our City's Leadership, should also acknowledge your basic responsibility for treating all city employees fairly and equitably. The right for equal treatment is as basic as the 1st and 14th Amendment rights we enjoy as citizens in our great nation.” Police Chief James Hosfelt, 303 Pebble Valley Place, read the following statement into the record: “I know I don't need to remind you that the non-bargaining group of city employees did not receive a raise this year and I don't think it will be a shock to any of us if we don't receive a raise in 2012. We as a group already anticipate paying a portion of our Health Care costs and by all accounts are doing so in an attempt to share the burden. One year of furloughs, two years of no pay raises and we are going to pay more for health care, something we have never had to do. Now on top of all of this I have to worry about you as a committee working towards taking away a retirement benefit that has been promised to those non-bargaining employees who work for the police department. We don't mind doing our part, but when is enough – enough. Before this was sent to the City Solicitor for a legal opinion and then forwarded to the Health Benefits Committee for a review and recommendation, there was a motion on the floor to retain this benefit for those employees who were vested or had reached ten years of service. I hope we haven't reached the point where promised retirement benefits are being arbitrarily taken away from non bargaining employees, i.e. Medicare B. If we have then I would ask you to reconsider a motion that was made by Councilman Hare and seconded by Dr. McGlumphy before being withdrawn on June 13, 2011. In that motion it was moved that Medicare Part B for all vested employees, or should I say those employees with ten or more years of service, be maintained. If this were the case, according to Ms. Mitchell's estimates, over 5 million dollars would be saved. While this is a tough stance to take and a hard one for me to put forth, I do so because those employees who are vested have demonstrated their loyalty and commitment to the city through their hard work and years of service.”

LEGISLATIVE, FINANCE, AND ADM INISTRATION COM M ITTEE M EETING OF SEPTEM BER 26, 2011 (CONTINUED ON SEPTEM BER 29, 2011) PAGE 6 Ms. Christina Kober, 343 Orchard Grove Drive, Camden, read the following statement into the record: “Good evening. Thank you for allowing me to speak regarding Medicare Part B for non-bargaining employees. My name is Christina Kober. I have been with the City of Dover for 23 years. My first 10 years was served as an unioned police dispatcher and the remaining 13 years I have served as the 911 Manager. I am a part of a group of the non-bargaining employees. I accepted employment with the City of Dover due to the benefits. I have been dedicated and loyal to my responsibilities as a City of Dover employee but I do not feel that my voice has been heard or that my opinion matters to Council. I have upheld the terms of my employment and hope you will also do the same – and honor the Medicare Part B as agreed upon. The city budget for 2012 has already been passed and all non-bargaining employees will receive no pay increase. Every union group had the right to negotiate Medicare Part B and subsequently received compensation for it. As a non-bargaining employee, the same respect has not been afforded to non-bargaining employees. • The IUE-CWA received additional vacation days per year and retirement health care. • The IBEW received additional vacation days per year and salary step increases. • The FOP received a rank increase of MCPL, which is equivalent to a 4.5% increase. • All of these have been above and beyond their contractual pay increases. City council is seeking to eliminate Medicare Part B reimbursement from all non-bargaining employees. Council has previously agreed that any employee hired after July 27, 2009 would not be eligible for Medicare Part B. Why are we back here today? There is a small group within the city that are non-bargaining employees, of our group only a few of us have come forward to speak. I know that others may feel they are in a compromised position and feel that they cannot fully express how they feel. For those of us that are willing to get up and speak, I know that there are others who stand with us in principle. I respectfully request you uphold our current benefit plan. Thank you for your time and attention to this matter.”

LEGISLATIVE, FINANCE, AND ADM INISTRATION COM M ITTEE M EETING OF SEPTEM BER 26, 2011 (CONTINUED ON SEPTEM BER 29, 2011) PAGE 7 Mrs. Fran Hettinger, 63 Sackarackin Avenue (retiree), noted that the proposal, as presented, did not affect retirees; however, she addressed members on behalf of current employees. She stated that many of the employees who would be affected by the proposal were hired before salaries became comparable to the private sector and “gave their all.” Mrs. Hettinger explained that it is often the benefits offered by the City, rather than salaries, that attracts new employees, and this is what drew many current employees. Mrs. Hettinger advised members that, several years ago, non-bargaining employees became concerned because union employees were receiving pay raises, resulting in the salaries of some employees becoming higher than their supervisors, since non-bargaining employees had no representation. When this concern was brought to the City Manager, they were advised that it was the City Manager’s job to take care of the non-bargaining employees. Mrs. Hettinger noted that, at that time, some of the non-bargaining employees met and decided to form a bargaining group, fearing that the City may “let them down” some day. The City Manager at that time assured the non- bargaining employees that it was not necessary for them to form a bargaining group and that they would be taken care of. She noted that now the City has no City Manager and that a new City Council is in place. Although Mrs. Hettinger supported a balanced budget, she requested that members not penalize certain employees by discontinuing a benefit that they were promised. Mr. Anderson reminded members that during the past few years, other than last year, non-bargaining employees received pay raises beyond union employees. He stated that the current Council is not bound by the action of a previous Council and that City Council has the responsibility to consider the current realities. Mr. Anderson noted that the world is changing, including Medicare, and Council must consider this and evaluate limiting the City’s liability. He stated that the Medicare Part B Reimbursement is not offered by any other entity and that the legal opinion provided indicated that this is not a benefit but rather a right. Although the reimbursement has been the City’s practice, he stated his support for its elimination; however, he indicated he was willing to consider a compromise. Mr. Lynn stated that, as several speakers expressed, the City made a promise to their employees regarding Medicare Part B reimbursement when they were hired. He felt that City employees have relied upon this promise and that such reliance was reasonable and foreseeable by the City. It was his opinion that injustice can only be avoided by honoring the promise; therefore, he suggested that the Committee recommend honoring the promise. Mr. Bonar referred to fellow police officers with whom he worked and advised members that the police officers made promises to protect and serve the City of Dover, just as the non-bargaining employees committed to serve the City, although these employees may not put their lives on the line on a daily basis as police officers do. He stated that the City made a promise to their employees and, although the economics have changed, he felt that the promise should be honored. He supported eliminating the benefit for employees with less than five (5) years of service and for new hires; however, he stated that he would not support the proposal as presented, particularly for those employees with 20-25 years of service.

LEGISLATIVE, FINANCE, AND ADM INISTRATION COM M ITTEE M EETING OF SEPTEM BER 26, 2011 (CONTINUED ON SEPTEM BER 29, 2011) PAGE 8 Responding to Mr. Hutchison, Mr. Koenig stated that there are a total of 42 non-bargaining vested and 41 non-bargaining non-vested employees. He indicated that eliminating the Medicare Part B reimbursement for non-vested employees would result in a $5M savings (using a 5.6% inflation rate). Mr. Hare reminded members that City Council has an obligation, not just to the employees but also to the citizens of Dover, to protect their quality of life and the future of the City. He reiterated his suggestion that the reimbursement be capped at $300. He stated that Medicare Part B is an unfunded mandate from the Federal Government and that the City has no control over its cost. In response to Dr. Jones, Mrs. Hawkins stated that, to her knowledge, details regarding Medicare Part B reimbursement were included in a single-page document, dated 1976, written by a previous Finance Director. It was not included in the Employee Handbook until 2009, when new language was included to indicate that the reimbursement would not be offered to new employees. Mr. Koenig stated that there is now a new employee orientation procedure whereby the benefit package is discussed and employees acknowledge receipt of the Employee Handbook, which includes the employee benefit package. Mr. Hare moved to recommend that there be no changes to the Medicare Part B reimbursement, seconded by Mr. Shevock. For clarification, Mrs. Hawkins stated that when this matter was considered in 2009, staff was directed to include language in the Employee Handbook to indicate that the Medicare Part B reimbursement is considered a “right” and not a “benefit”; therefore, it could be presented in the future for reconsideration. The motion to recommend that there be no changes to the Medicare Part B reimbursement failed by a roll call vote of two (2) yes, two (2) no (Mr. Anderson and Dr. McGlumphy), and one (1) abstention (Dr. Jones). Mr. Anderson moved to recommend capping the Medicare Part B reimbursement benefit at a $200 level to preserve the integrity of the City’s finances and out-year liability. The motion failed for lack of a second. Dr. McGlumphy stated that the matter would be considered by City Council during their Regular Meeting of October 10, 2011 with no recommendation from the Committee. Proposed Resolution No. 2011-11 - Request to General Assembly to Amend the City of Dover Charter - Length of Terms for Mayor and Council (Deferred by Committee on August 22, 2011 Due to Time Constraints) (Tabled by Committee on 9/12/11 Pending Additional Review of the 2005 Charter Review Committee Recommendation) During their meeting of September 12, 2011, members considered Proposed Resolution No. 2011-11 requesting the Delaware General Assembly to amend the City of Dover Charter to increase the term lengths for the Mayor and Council from two (2) years to four (4) years. The Committee tabled the matter pending additional review of actions taken by previous Charter Review Committees.

Mr. Hare moved to remove the matter from the table, seconded by Mr. Anderson and unanimously carried. Mr. Hare moved to recommend adoption of Proposed Resolution No. 2011-11 (Attachment #1), seconded by Mr. Shevock and carried with Mr. Anderson voting no. Proposed City of Dover Prescription Assistance Plan At the request of Councilman Anderson, information related to United Networks of America Free Statewide Prescription Assistance Program was provided to members for their review and consideration. Mr. Alan Caan, Program Development for United Networks of America, (19-62 Chandler Drive in Fair Lawn, New Jersey) briefly reviewed the information received by members regarding the Free Statewide Prescription Assistance Program and noted that the program includes eyeglasses, hearing aids, dental, etc. He stated that the program is available to everyone. Responding to Mr. Anderson, Mr. Caan stated that there would be no cost to the City of Dover to provide this program to its residents, nor any fees to members. He explained that discount cards would be provided to the City to distribute to its residents, family members, employees, businesses and their employees. In addition, Mr. Caan stated that every time a card is used at a pharmacy to fill a prescription, the City of Dover would receive .50¢. He noted that when he departed Bergen County, New Jersey, there were approximately 5,600 prescriptions filled per month in the County through this program, which equated to over $300,000 in savings to residents. Multiplied annually, he stated that the residents would save over $3.5M per year. In response to Mr. Shevock, Mr. Caan stated that the United Networks of America (UNA) receives revenue from the prescription drug program, which is derived from the formation of pharmacy networks; however, UNA receives no revenue from the other programs offered, such as eyeglasses and hearing aids. He explained that participating pharmacies provide discounts and payment to the UNA who shares its portion with the groups, organizations, and governments that participate in the program. Responding to Mr. Lynn, Mr. Caan indicated that individuals utilizing prescription insurance coverage cannot use the prescription drug program to pay the co-pay. Mr. Anderson moved to recommend the implementation of the United Networks of America Free Statewide Prescription Assistance Plan, as presented. The motion was seconded by Mr. Hare and unanimously carried. Due to time constraints, Dr. McGlumphy suggested that members recess the meeting until Thursday, September 29, 2011 at 5:00 p.m.

Meeting recessed at 6:59 P.M. Mr. Shevock moved to reconvene, seconded by Dr. Jones and unanimously carried. THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 29, 2011 - 5:00 P.M. The Legislative, Finance, and Administration Committee Meeting reconvened on September 29, 2011 at 5:00 p.m. with Dr. McGlumphy presiding. Members present were Mr. Anderson (arrived at 5:17 p.m.), Mr. Hare, Dr. Jones, and Mr. Shevock. Members of Council present were Mr. Hutchison, and Mr. Lynn (departed at 5:43 p.m., and returned at 5:51 p.m.). Mayor Carey was also present (departed at 5:40 p.m. and returned at 5:50 p.m.) AGENDA ADDITIONS/DELETIONS Chairman McGlumphy requested that Item #2 - Discussion of Historical Perspective of Economic Development Office be considered as Item #1. Dr. Jones moved for approval of the agenda, as amended, seconded by Mr. Shevock and unanimously carried. Discussion - Historical Perspective of Economic Development Office Mrs. Ann Marie Townshend, Director of Planning and Community Development, read the following statement into the record: “The creation of the economic development office was tied closely to the Economic Development Chapter of the Comprehensive Plan, the Hyett Palma Economic Revitalization Strategy for downtown, and the consolidation of the three organizations charged with downtown redevelopment (Parking Authority, DDDC, Main Street Dover). In 2007, the Kent County Economic Development Strategy Initiative was released. This strategy was funded jointly by Kent County, Dover, Smyrna and DRBA. In November 2007, the consultant (Moran, Stahl and Boyer) who developed the strategy gave a presentation of the Strategy to City Council. The Strategy included Economic Development Recommendations for the City of Dover. This study and the Hyett Palma study were used heavily in the development of the Economic Development chapter of the Comprehensive Plan. This chapter was developed by assembling a working group of professionals representing Kent County, DEDO, the Chamber of Commerce, and others. The Comprehensive Plan ultimately recommended hiring an economic development professional for the City of Dover.

LEGISLATIVE, FINANCE, AND ADM INISTRATION COM M ITTEE M EETING OF SEPTEM BER 26, 2011 (CONTINUED ON SEPTEM BER 29, 2011) PAGE 11 Concurrently, as a part of implementing Hyett Palma, meetings were taking place with the leaders of the downtown groups (DDDC, Parking Authority and Main Street) about consolidating the organizations. Ultimately, this was done in July 2008, creating the DDP. In working to consolidate the three organizations, there were three staffing scenarios evaluated: simply absorbing the Main Street Director; absorbing the Main Street Director and creating a new Administrative Assistant position; absorbing the Main Street Director and hiring a new Administrative Assistant and Economic Development Manager. This was the scenario ultimately chosen. Prior to this, City staff (Clerk's Office and Planning Department) provided staff support for the DDDC and Parking Authority, and the Main Street Director provided staff support for Main Street Dover. By-laws for DDP indicate that City Planner is executive director if another executive director is not hired. The idea was that the new positions would spend 50% of their time on DDP/downtown functions, and 50% of their time on city-wide economic development. Responsibilities to include Garrison Oak, streamlining of business development, working with GSA on locating office space, work with higher education to create a partnership, packaging of downtown redevelopment incentives. Economic Development Office initially placed under the City Planner; ultimately moved under the City Manager.” Responding to Mr. Hutchison, Mrs. Townshend recalled that the City was paying $16,000-$20,000 annually for a membership with the Kent County Economic Development Office. Mr. Lynn requested a ratio comparing the cost of staffing the Economic Development Office (EDO) versus the amount of revenue that has been generated for the City. Mrs. Townshend stated that the Economic Development Director tracks economic statistics and reminded members that the City created the Economic Development Office during a time when the economy was declining. However, she assured members that there has been business growth in the downtown area. Elaborating, Mr. William Neaton, Economic Development Director, stated that although he does not have specifics, the unemployment rate this year decreased approximately 1% compared to last year, noting that the unemployment rate in August 2011 was 9.4% and in August 2010, it was 10.3%. Mr. Neaton advised members that, during the last three (3) years, the EDO has established relationships and completed infrastructure improvements so that the City will be positioned to move very quickly to begin attracting new businesses when the economy turns around. Referring to the Garrison Tract, he reminded members that the City’s EDO was tasked with getting the Garrison Tract “shovel ready.” The City’s EDO sent Requests for Proposals (RFPs) and worked with engineers, the Delaware Department of Transportation (DelDOT), the Delaware Economic Development Office (DEDO), and others, and obtained an approved site plan. Mr. Neaton also noted that he was expecting a response after October 1, 2011 regarding the receipt of infrastructure improvement funds from the State of Delaware. He stated that the City has budgeted $3M for infrastructure improvements to the site. He also advised members that he has been working with a second lessee, Calpine, who is awaiting an impact study from Pennsylvania, Jersey, Maryland

LEGISLATIVE, FINANCE, AND ADM INISTRATION COM M ITTEE M EETING OF SEPTEM BER 26, 2011 (CONTINUED ON SEPTEM BER 29, 2011) PAGE 12 Interconnection (PJM) in order to move forward. Mr. Neaton reminded members that the Calpine project consists of a 618 megawatt power plant at a cost of approximately a half of a billion dollars, which will generate significant tax revenues and water and sewer fees for the City of Dover. In response to Mr. Hare regarding Main Street Dover, Mrs. Townshend explained that when the Hyett Palma Study was completed in 2006, one of the observations made was that there were three (3) organizations targeting downtown redevelopment, one (1) of which was Main Street Dover. It was determined that there was duplication of efforts and, at times, these organizations were working at cross purposes; therefore, it was recommended that the (3) organizations be brought under one (1) umbrella. She stated that many individuals and organizations that have been part of the downtown area agreed that bringing these organizations together would improve their effectiveness. Mr. Hare requested that Mr. Neaton provide documentation that proves that the City’s EDO has created additional revenue over and above the $250,000 cost of the office. In addition, he stated that the SunPark is costing the citizens of Dover, noting that $112,000 was charged to the City for July. Responding, Mr. Neaton reminded members that the SunPark was a part of an overall economic development plan for the City, noting that the 2030 Committee recommended that the department develop green energy and a previous Council agreed. As an energy supplier, he stated that the City was mandated by the State to acquire renewable energy credits. He advised members that 80% of the labor for the SunPark was obtained from Kent County and that Calpine, which is a two (2) to three (3) year project, is also committed to utilizing local labor. Concurring, Mrs. Townshend explained that any jobs brought into or retained in the City are beneficial to the economic development of the City. She noted that although some of the successes in retaining jobs are small, the impact to the City is huge. Mr. Anderson stated that it has been his observation that there have been changes that have provided a focus to the downtown area and that if the City does not invest in economic development, it will go elsewhere. Responding, Mr. Neaton explained the importance of an active economic development office which lays a foundation for future growth. He reminded members that an ordinance was recently developed which provides a tax incentive/tax abatement for large unoccupied buildings, which can be used to attract new tenants. In addition, he stated that there are 13 parcels available at the Garrison Oak Tract and, once funding is obtained, this area will become “shovel ready.” He explained that another advantage of having an EDO is that it allows for the City to act and react more quickly in such matters as the issuance and review of RFPs for recommendation. Mr. Anderson stated that he has been in contact with other organizations and was advised that the City’s EDO is well known and considered one of the most proactive organizations throughout the State. Noting that these are difficult economic times, he reminded members that immediate results cannot always be obtained. Concurring, Mr. Neaton indicated the importance of developing relationships in the process of economic development and that during the past three (3) years, he has developed relationships with the Secretary of Economic Development for the State of Delaware and Presidents and/or Campus Administrators of Colleges/Universities, etc. Although these relationships take time to develop, he reiterated their importance.

LEGISLATIVE, FINANCE, AND ADM INISTRATION COM M ITTEE M EETING OF SEPTEM BER 26, 2011 (CONTINUED ON SEPTEM BER 29, 2011) PAGE 13 Mr. Anderson suggested that the City become more involved with obtaining grants and stated that he felt the City lacks in this area. He questioned if the City’s EDO will be pursuing a strategic partnership with Delaware State University’s new research initiatives. Responding, Mr. Neaton stated that he has worked with the Delaware State University’s School of Business and that they have developed a business plan and marketing plan for the downtown area. In regard to the grants, he advised members that a Delaware Main Street Conference was held recently where grant acquisitions was discussed, and he assured members that he would be pursuing this in the future. He noted that grants have been awarded to the City during the past few years, such as a $45,000 grant awarded by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) that continues to be utilized. Dr. McGlumphy noted that the City’s EDO had provided monthly updates, including statistics, to the Parks, Recreation, and Community Development Committee and encouraged staff to also provide updates of the information that was included in the City’s budget, including goals and objectives. He offered to meet with Mr. Neaton to explain further. Dr. McGlumphy relayed his understanding of the value of recent projects in the City, such as the new library and the Dover SunPark. However, he stated his concern that jobs created through these undertakings may not be benefitting City residents and minorities. He requested that staff provide detailed information regarding the residence and ethnicity of individuals hired for such projects. There was no further action taken by the Committee. Presentation by Downtown Dover Partnership (DDP): Recent Grant Award in the Amount of $3M; Status of $1.3M Loan for 120 S. Governors Avenue; Future Plans Mr. William Neaton, Executive Director of the Downtown Dover Partnership (DDP), advised members that, as a result of several studies conducted, it was determined that there was a need for an overall plan for the downtown area. Upon completion of the Dover Transit Center, he stated that the Dover/Kent County Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) requested a “plan book” to determine what the area surrounding the Transit Center could or should become in the future. The MPO hired the Renaissance Planning Group and Becker Morgan Group, Inc. to assist with this project. Mr. Neaton stated that he approached the MPO regarding the possibility of the DDP partnering in this effort, since there were several properties in the downtown area that should be reviewed by the architects and engineers to determine their potential use in the future and how they would fit into the Master Plan for the downtown area. As a result, Mr. Neaton reminded members that a charrette was conducted, which consisted of interested parties meeting to determine what the City should become in the future, without consideration of funding. During this charrette, several parcels were evaluated, including those owned by the DDP and the North Street Corridor. Legislators were then approached and presented with a written document regarding proposed improvements in the downtown area and, in response, legislators awarded $3M in Bond Bill monies to assist in the completion of downtown projects. Recent Grant Award in the Amount of $3M Mr. Gregg Moore, President of the DDP, reviewed the Dover Transit Center Neighborhood Plan - Charrette Presentation (Attachment #2). He stated that the projects that were chosen for funding by the State are located on North Street and include the Collegian Site (consisting of three buildings - newsstand, hardware store, and former Capital Office Supply), seven (7) parking lots, and upgrades to North Street so that it serves as another gateway to the City.

LEGISLATIVE, FINANCE, AND ADM INISTRATION COM M ITTEE M EETING OF SEPTEM BER 26, 2011 (CONTINUED ON SEPTEM BER 29, 2011) PAGE 14 Mr. Moore reminded members that the vacant building at 22-24 W. Loockerman Street, which was formerly occupied by W.T. Grant and consists of 20,000 sq. ft., was purchased by the DDP. He noted that although this project is not a part of the $3M that the DDP received through the FY 2012 State Bond Bill to finance area improvements, it is a part of the overall plan to make investments in the heart of downtown, in an effort to upgrade Loockerman Street and The Green, and to improve parking. Mr. Moore stated that the DDP plans to make upgrades to the former W.T. Grant building and obtain tenants. Once this has been completed, the DDP will sell the property to a developer to own and operate. Mr. Moore explained that the Collegian Property would be developed in such a manner that pedestrian pathways would be created from Loockerman Street to and from North Street. He noted that it would not be appropriate to construct additional buildings on the property at this time; however, he noted that this would be the ultimate goal. Mr. Moore advised members that there are many other projects in the DDP Comprehensive Plan and that funding is required as part of the Transit Center Study; however, he assured members that the City is not being requested to consider any funding issues involved with these projects. He stated that the DDP plans to continue to pursue funding from the State of Delaware to continue other projects and improvements to the area. Mr. Moore noted that DDP is also working on the old Acme site, stating that this project would not be funded through the $3M that the DDP received from the State. On the advice of local commercial realtors, he stated that a plan was developed for the site so that the sale of the property actually includes an improved plan. Mr. Moore explained that the plan for the site has been reviewed and approved by the Historic District Commission, Planning Commission, etc. and the property is listed for sale at $1.4M. In response to Dr. Jones, Mr. Moore stated that the developer would determine the tenants of the apartments. Dr. Jones felt that consideration should be given to making the City as diverse as possible. Responding to Mr. Hare, Mr. Moore stated that the DDP does not own any of the properties along New Street; however, it is their desire for New Street and other surrounding streets to be upgraded and redeveloped. He noted that the DDP could assist in facilitating such a change. Mr. Moore explained that the DDP obtains revenues through rental properties, re-investments, parking lot revenues, etc. Status of $1.3M Loan for 120 S. Governors Avenue Mr. Moore advised members that the DDP inherited a $1.3M loan co-signed by City Council in 2008 (prior to the creation of the DDP). He stated that the loan is an interest only loan, paid by the DDP, with approximately two (2) years remaining. The goal of the DDP is to sell the property before the loan expires and pay the loan; however, if this does not happen, the DDP plans to renegotiate the loan in such a manner that there is positive cash flow. He anticipated that the DDP would be successful in either situation. He noted that the DDP owns several properties and, therefore, felt confident that the City will not be faced with any catastrophic problem in this regard.

LEGISLATIVE, FINANCE, AND ADM INISTRATION COM M ITTEE M EETING OF SEPTEM BER 26, 2011 (CONTINUED ON SEPTEM BER 29, 2011) PAGE 15 The Committee took no further action regarding this matter. Due to time constraints, and noting that there were members of the public wishing to speak, by unanimous consent, Agenda Item #5 - Review, Consolidation and/or Elimination of City Committees, Commissions, and Boards - Dover Human Relations Commission was considered prior to Item #3. Review, Consolidation and/or Elimination of City Committees, Commissions, and Boards - Dover Human Relations Commission With increasing staff vacancies, and in consideration of current hiring limitations, Council President Leary requested members of Council and City Staff to explore possible inefficiencies within City of Dover committees, commissions, and boards. Some boards appear to serve like purposes and others have become obsolete; therefore, the Committee will consider whether any groups can be consolidated or eliminated. Several recommendations have been received and will be considered by the Committee in the following weeks and months. Members reviewed information regarding the Dover Human Relations Commission (DHRC). Ms. Faye Della White, 101 Babb Drive, relayed her support for the DHRC, feeling that they have accomplished good work for the City, including the defense of human rights and freedom of expression. She noted that there currently are six (6) vacancies on the DHRC and informed members that she submitted a resume for consideration earlier in the day. She requested that the City retain the DHRC. Mr. Lawrence Byrd, 49 Acacia Place, felt that there is a need for a voice for those who have a better understanding of the people’s backgrounds and status of living. He also felt that the Commission makes the City a better place in which to live, noting that there have been racial issues throughout the City. With a Human Relations Commission, he felt that the City can build a better place for its resident to live, an improved school system, etc. Mr. David McCorkle, 20 N. New Street, stated that, as a representative of the House of Pride, this organization has worked closely with the Dover Human Relations Commission. He stated that the DHRC has provided much assistance to recovering addicts, explaining that addicts living in the area of New Street have been discriminated against. He relayed appreciation for the DHRC and requested that they not be disbanded or discontinued. Mr. Anderson stated that he has had the pleasure of serving as a member of the DHRC. Although he was aware that there have been weaknesses in the Commission, he indicated that he has been impressed with the new leadership during the past year. Mr. Anderson noted that the DHRC has been involved in recent issues regarding the relations of people of the City. He stated that Dover has had a homeless problem that was not being recognized and that the DHRC provided a forum to make this issue known to assist in developing a resolution. It was Mr. Anderson’s observation that the Commission has made several issues known to the public. He noted that the Commission provides a means for the public to relay concerns, explaining that constituents do not always come to

LEGISLATIVE, FINANCE, AND ADM INISTRATION COM M ITTEE M EETING OF SEPTEM BER 26, 2011 (CONTINUED ON SEPTEM BER 29, 2011) PAGE 16 City Hall to express their concerns. He stated that these forums resulted in a new electric bill format and helped defeat a hike in natural gas rates. Mr. Anderson felt that there are minimal costs associated with the Commission, noting that the members serve without compensation. He stated that the Commission is a good investment for the City and that members should allow the new leadership an opportunity to provide beneficial results. Dr. Jones stated that the DHRC serves a role in the City. She stated that, as a citizen, she would like for it to continue and for their leadership to work, as partners, with members of City Council and other leadership positions within the City. She felt that the membership should include all who are represented, particularly those that may feel they are disenfranchised. Mr. Hare relayed his concurrence with Dr. Jones; however, he felt that the Commission may be acting outside their purview. He did not feel that the Commission should make recommendations to the Police Department for arrests, or suggestions regarding who should obtain counseling or rehabilitation, etc. Should the Commission be maintained, he suggested that they act within their defined objectives and goals. Council President Leary stated that, due to the City’s economic situation, there have been various considerations to save expenses, including leaving vacant positions unfilled. He felt that if there are ways to contract some of the City’s activities without affecting constituent services, it was important that these suggestions be presented for consideration. In this particular instance, he noted that there is a State of Delaware Human Relations Commission, which has a similar charge and currently has seven (7) members that reside in Kent County. He felt that the City’s Human Relations Commission is duplicative and felt that this would be a good time for members to consider eliminating the City’s Commission and utilize the State’s Commission in this regard. At the request of Mrs. Russell, Dr. McGlumphy read the following statement, dated September 29, 2011, into the record: “I am unable to attend tonight’s meeting of the Legislative, Finance, and Administration Committee; however, I would like to express my opinion regarding Agenda Item #6, the Review, Consolidation and/or Elimination of City Committees, Commissions, and Boards as it relates to the Dover Human Relations Commission. I do not feel that this organization should be eliminated. I believe that the Commission would benefit from reorganization, improved guidelines, better defined rules, and possibly diversity training. The Commission should also work more closely with the State Human Relations Commission. I believe that the Dover Human Relations Commission serves a useful purpose in promoting understanding between people of all races and backgrounds. Sophia R. Russell Fourth District Representative”

In response to Dr. Jones, Mr. Roy Sudler, Jr., Chairman of the DHRC, stated that initially the Commission’s budget was $10,000, it was later reduced to $5,000, and the current budget was $3,000. Mr. Anderson moved to recommend that the Dover Human Relations Commission be retained and that the Commission itself conduct a review and report back to the Committee within three (3) months with suggestions to make operations more effective. The motion was seconded by Dr. Jones and unanimously carried. Due to time constraints, Chairman McGlumphy suggested that Items #3 - Review of Cell Phone Use, and #4 - Review of Take-Home Vehicle Use be deferred until the next Committee meeting. Mr. Anderson moved to defer Items #3 and #4 until the next regularly scheduled Committee meeting, seconded by Dr. Jones and carried with Mr. Hare voting no.

During this stop a Dover K-9 alerted to illegal drugs in the vehicle. A search of the vehicle revealed 831 bags of heroin, with an approximate weight of 25 total grams. This enabled officers to obtain a search warrant for a residence located on Royal Grant Way, which is just outside of the city limits of Dover. With the assistance of the Department of Homeland Security Investigations Team, all three agencies executed the search warrant later the same morning and another 56 bags of heroin with an approximate weight of 1.7 grams was seized and 3 subjects were arrested.  Dover Detectives are investigating the robbery of a local business located on Forrest Street. The robbery occurred on Thursday, August 4, 2011, when two unknown suspects, disguised with handkerchiefs over their faces, entered the business, both brandishing handguns. The suspects removed an undisclosed amount of money from the register and safe and fled from the store to an unknown location.  On Saturday August 6, 2011, a victim who resides in an apartment on Walker Road answered a knock on his door to an acquaintance who asked to use his phone. The victim allowed the subject who he identified into his residence, at that time the subject assaulted the victim and demanded money. The subject received cash and the victim’s cell phone after which time he fled the residence. The victim was treated and released from Kent General Hospital for injuries sustained in the assault.  On Tuesday August 16, 2011, a subject entered a victim’s unsecured residence on Riverside Road and once inside removed victim’s bank card and keys to her vehicle. The subject then removed victim’s Pontiac G6 from the garage and fled. The subject was apprehended in the vehicle by the Delaware State Police in Clayton, Delaware.

Report to Mayor and Council August 2011 Page 4 Major crimes and activities that occurred during the month of August continued:  On Tuesday August 16, 2011, a subject entered a business located on South DuPont Highway and removed a handgun from his waistband and displayed it to the clerk while demanding money.

On June 3, 2011 the victim was found unresponsive in his residence and the Delaware State Police responded. Victim was pronounced dead shortly after at Bay Health Hospital and the body was turned over to the Medical Examiner’s Office. Suspicious injuries were located on the victim and Delaware State Police Detectives were able to determine that he was involved in an altercation in the parking lot of a business in Dover. Dover Detectives then took over the investigation and awaited the conclusion of the Medical Examiner’s ruling before obtaining warrants for the subject’s arrest. It was determined that the victim died from head injuries sustained during the altercation. The victim and defendant were acquaintances.  Between Sunday August 14, 2011 and Sunday August 18, 2011, an unknown subject forced entry into the victims residence located on Halsey Road.

Box 475 Dover, DE 19903 Phone: (302) 736-7196 Fax (302) 736-4217 August 2011 PERSONEL Planning Staff attended the ribbon cutting for the Dover Sun Park project on August 17, 2011. EDEN HILL FARM TND In late August we received a series of revisions to the Permits issued previously for a series of six townhouse dwelling units on Ridgely Boulevard. These revisions will be reviewed and permits reissued as necessary (in September). For the Residential District of Eden Hill Farm Traditional Neighborhood Design the totals remain at 53 dwelling units complete of the 59 permits approved for dwelling units. In August, there was no specific activity associated with the Professional Office, Medical & Financial District. There has been no activity associated with the Neighborhood Commercial District since the Planning Commission’s action on the Revised Implementation Plan (Revision #2-Updated Plan of October 1, 2010) in October 2010. Construction preparation activities began for the construction of the North Street Circle. This road system element at the previous intersection of the farmhouse driveway and North Street will include a traffic circle with connections from North Street into the Commercial District area, the Professional, Medical & Financial District, and the Eden Hill farmhouse property. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN IMPLEMENTATION Planning Staff continues to focus efforts on the implementation items identified in the 2008 Comprehensive Plan as amended. On August 8, 2011, the City Council conducted a Public Hearing and then adopted the text amendments for the application processing provisions of Zoning Ordinance, Article 10. Planning Staff is working on the updated Public Notice instructions which now involve physical posting of the property. Planning Staff is also working on the development of several other ordinances including text amendments to the Land Subdivision Regulations pertaining to Homeowners Associations and text amendments to the Zoning Ordinance pertaining to swimming pools. Other Activities New Dover High School Project (C-10-05) - Construction activities related to utilities, stormwater management facilities, and site prep continue at the site. On August 3rd, the project team and City Staff met with DelDOT regarding the road design of the western entrance road that will be a public street serving the high school and adjacent properties. The monthly progress meeting on the Dover High School project was held on August 18th with Planning Staff and Public Utilities Staff meeting with the district’s design professionals and DelDOT staff. The Planning Office is working on the review of Bid Pack C for Check Print review of the site development plan as associated with Application C-10-05. The construction activities continue for the following Capital School District projects: Professional Development Offices & Maintenance Facility located on Commerce Way and Site Improvements to William Henry Middle School/Booker T.
