Lyon, P.E., Director of Water & Wastewater / Engineering Services REVIEWED BY: David S. Hugg, III, City Manager and Lori Peddicord, Controller / Treasurer SUBJECT: Evaluation of Bids – Williams Park Storm Pipe Replacement TIMETABLE: Notice to proceed to be issued within thirty (30) days of Council approval. Project anticipated to be completed in sixty (60) calendar days. RELATED PROJECT: X REFERENCE: X EXPENDITURE REQUIRED: $148,800 AMOUNT BUDGETED: $85,000 FUNDING SOURCE (Dept./Page in CIP & Budget): Department of Public Works – Stormwater, CIP Project #SW2301 CIP Name: Emergency Storm Sewer Repairs Account No.: 101-12-18- 60-000-54031. Shortfall of funds will be covered by the surplus of funds from the Meeting House Branch Improvement Design Project, CIP ST2003, Account Number 101-12- 18-35-000-54030. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Award contract to Gateway Construction, Inc. for the Williams Park Storm Pipe Replacement, ITB #23- 0004PW, for $148,000. BACKGROUND AND ANALYSIS: An internal maintenance and engineering analysis was performed on the stormwater infrastructure that runs along the southeasterly property line of Williams Park and discharges into the White Oak Tax Ditch. The analysis was performed due to the erosion of the downstream tax ditch. The city’s stormwater inventory showed there were two (2) thirty-inch (30”) Corrugated Metal Pipes (CMP) running parallel to each other, discharging into the White Oak tax ditch. However, when the Streets and Stormwater Division personnel went to replace a 30’ section of the corroded CMP, only one CMP was unearthed. The Department of Water & Wastewater was asked to assist by taking a video of the pipe where it ties into an existing catch basin. The video process had to be abandoned, since the bottom of the pipe was too 9

Item 2. corroded. After several heavy rainfalls, the bank continued to erode and eventually the second 30” CMP was uncovered several feet back from the bank of the ditch. The recommendation was to replace both 30” pipes and the two catch basins that they run through from the existing catch basin to the ditch. This project was not listed as a project in the current Capital Improvement Plan, however the condition merits repair. The bid listed three (3) options for the pipe replacement, and they are as follows: Option A – 30” Corrugated Metal Pipe (CMP) Option B – 30” High Density Polyethylene Pipe (HDPE) Option C – 30” Reinforced Concrete Pipe (RCP) Staff recommends using the most cost effective, Option B -30” High Density Polyethylene Pipe (HDPE). This is the most cost effective due to the lack of corrosion that the CMP would gather, and the price of RCP is significantly higher than HDPE. The base bid prices shown in the table below reflect the bids submitted for this option. The bid was advertised to the public as an Invitation to Bid in accordance with the City’s purchasing policy by the City’s Purchasing Agent under ITB #23-0004PW. Bids were opened on November 15, 2022. The City of Dover received nine (9) bids, with five (5) bids being non-responsive. The four (4) responsive bids are shown in the table below: EVALUATED CONTRACTOR LOCATION BASE BID PRICE GATEWAY CONSTRUCTION, INC. HARTLY, DE $148,000 $148,000 MITTEN CONSTRUCTION CO.

RELATED PROJECT: EXHIBITS Exhibit A – Governing Policy Exhibit B – Dover Notional Transaction Limits (explanation purposes only) STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Approve the proposed amendments to the Governing Policy for Energy Commodity for Risk Management BACKGROUND AND ANALYSIS: This Policy provides oversight to the Dover management team and TEA (The Energy Authority) in conducting and transacting business on behalf of Dover utility. The Policy provides a framework and delegation of responsibilities to guide and administer the activities related to Dover’s energy commodity risk management. The Policy establishes organizational structure, delegates responsibility, and establishes internal controls and procedures to ensure transactional and oversight activities are conducted in compliance with the Policy and in accordance with the City’s normal operations, regulatory reporting and legal requirements relating to energy assets and transactions. There are several small revisions to the Policy consisting of basic housekeeping items in keeping with the current market and standard terms in relation to risk management. The most significant change requested with this annual review is found on page 14 of the Policy under Risk Limits and Risk Measurement Subparagraph 1. Delegation Authority. The Energy Risk Management Committee (ERMC) is requesting Council approve an increase in the notional value limit from $20 million to $40 million for the Dover ERMC in committing to financial obligations. We have continued to see significant increase in the forward market pricing which has continued to erode the purchasing power of the ERMC. This erosion reduces the purchasing capability of the ERMC which is why we bring this change before you this year. Exhibit B - Dover Notional Transaction Limits Evaluation provides a great visual of the reduced purchasing power - historical (8/24/15) vs current market (9/9/22). 12

Item 3. PURPOSE OF THE RISK MANAGEMENT POLICY A. Introduction The City of Dover (“City”) and its customers are routinely exposed to commodity risk, counterparty risk, process risk, budget risk, and regulatory risk – herein referred to collectively as Energy Commodity Risk - in the normal conduct of serving its electric load requirements. Volatility of energy commodity prices and volumetric uncertainty (either supply/generation or load obligations) impose a substantial and direct risk to the City’s financial and operating performance. By authority of its charter, the City has responsibility for overseeing the City’s electricity operations, including the management of its cost of serving Dover’s customers with primary operational management authority vested in the City Manager (Dover City Charter §40). By agreement (the “EMA”) dated May 6, 2011 and approved by the City, the City has engaged The Energy Authority, Inc. (“TEA”) to assist the City with Asset Management and Strategic Planning Services, Risk Management Services, and Energy Management Services. This Policy for Energy Commodity Risk Management (“Policy”) is established the explicit understanding that the City has retained and delegated responsibilities to TEA to provide Risk Management Services. Additionally, the City has issued this Policy for dealing with the philosophy, framework and delegation of responsibilities necessary to govern activities related to Dover’s energy commodity risk management. As set forth herein, the City has established an organizational structure, delegated responsibility and established internal controls and procedures to ensure that all transactional and oversight activities are conducted in compliance with this Policy and in accordance with the City’s normal reporting, legal, financing and regulatory requirements relating to energy assets and transactions. B. Scope of Policy This Policy covers all transactions entered into by the City of Dover designed to meet the City’s electric load requirement and the management of risk related to these transactions. In the event of conflict between this Policy and the EMA, the more restrictive document shall control. 4 16

Paj 17

Item 3. This Policy is separate and distinct from enterprise risk management policies and procedures addressing the City’s safe operation of its generating stations and energy infrastructure, insurance requirements, permit compliance, employee matters regulatory compliance with laws and regulations of the State of Delaware and Federal Agencies such as EPA, FERC, NERC and CFTC or other potential risks to the City beyond the purchase and sale of fuel and electric power and its ancillary products. Unless otherwise explicitly stated in this Policy, or other policies approved by the Utility Committee, this Policy applies to all power and fuel procurement and related business activities that may impact the energy market risk profile of the City. This policy documents the framework by which management and staff will:  Identify and quantify risk  Develop and execute procurement strategies  Create a framework of controls and oversight  Monitor, measure, and report on the effectiveness of the risk management C. Objectives and Risk Philosophy The objectives of the Policy are to identify Energy Commodity price and credit risk exposures and give the City a framework for the quantification and management of these exposures. The Policy will identify the reports needed to convey how the identified risk exposures can potentially impact the City’s overall cost of providing electricity service to its customers and report on the risk management of the transactions associated with City’s electric load requirements. Under the Policy, risk management activities will be conducted consistent with the City’s overall objective of appropriate risk management. There are several objectives of the Policy which, when taken and executed together, serve to manage the City’s energy commodity price exposures. Specifically, the Policy:  Establishes framework for developing credit limits for counterparties and quantifies and manages the credit exposures related to potential counterparty abrogation  Quantifies the impact of the energy commodity price and credit risk exposures on City’s financial results  Manages the impact of the above exposures in line with the City’s identified level of risk tolerance  Provides clear delineation of responsibilities and authority, outlines a separation of duties, and ensures reporting of risk is timely and accurate.  Ensures that the impact of any action affecting the City’s position is consistently quantified, monitored and authorized. 5 17

Paj 18

Item 3. The City’s risk management activities will be conducted consistent with its overall objective of appropriate risk mitigation and never for purposes of speculation. D. Policy Administration This Policy has been approved by the Executive Risk Management Committee and The Utility Committee of the Dover City Council Committee of the Whole. The Utility Committee must approve modifications to the Policy, with the exception of the appendix information which can be modified with the approval of the Executive Risk Management Committee. DISCUSSION OF RISKS This Policy covers the management of all material energy market risks faced by the City. A comprehensive list of risks that are or could be relevant to the City is shown in Appendix C of the Policy. Among the most critical of these risks are commodity risk, counterparty risk, process risk, volume risk, and budget risk. These risks are measured by the limit structure and controls outlined in the Policy. Commodity risk represents the potential adverse impacts to the value of the City’s portfolio due to changes in the market or government policy. Commodity risk encompasses volatility risk, forward price risk, basis risk, correlation risk and liquidity risk. Volatility risk is incurred by sudden changes to the cost and value of market instruments. Forward Price Risk is the impact of future prices differing from historical prices as well as the potential for changing prices to result in mark-to-market exposure. Basis risk is incurred whenever prices differ between procurement and consumption location for power or fuel products. Correlation Risk is a reflection that multiple assets may experience varying degrees of similar movement which may change over time. Liquidity Risk is experienced when a commodity may be less available to buy or sell due to counterparties being unable or unwilling to transact a commodity in a normal timeframe. without altering the pricing of that commodity. Counterparty risk represents the potential losses the City could incur due to delivery risk and receivable risk. Delivery risk stems from a supplier or trading counterparty that is unable or unwilling to perform on its commitments including but not limited to delivery or receipt of commodities which would require the City to procure alternative supply at market prices. Receivable Risk includes the City’s risk associated with a counterparty’s timeliness of payment for services rendered. Process risk represents the risks associated with process problems including, but not limited to, inaccurate data capture, untimely trade execution or incorrect settlement. 6 18

Paj 19

Item 3. Controls over process risks are embedded in the organizational structure of TEA through the design processes and operating procedures. Volume Risk represents the potential for unforeseen changes from projections of excess or shortfall of capacity or energy from the actual needs. When variances are large coupled with large costs to transact and adverse moves in market prices this risk could be realized. In management of this risk, the City must be aware of the fact that unexpected variations in volume are often highly correlated with price movements. compounding the impact of volume in a phenomenon known as Covariance Risk. Budget Risk represents the potential to deviate outside of tolerable bounds of the City’s budget. Deviations from budget can be caused by forecast error or unforeseeable adverse changes in market prices. Regulatory Risk arises from participation in regulated markets. With the Independent System Operator (ISO) implementation of Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) Order 741, the City faces increasing regulatory risk when participating in wholesale energy markets. The TEA Compliance department works in conjunction with the TEA Risk Control department to help the City manage regulatory risk. Regulatory risk is managed by:  Annual Compliance Training for all employees participating in regulated markets;  Integration of the appropriate compliance culture within the Trading department through ongoing interaction between Compliance and Trading;  An independent monitoring and exposure measurement on transactions that could trigger an increase in regulatory risk. MANAGEMENT AND CONTROLS This Policy articulates the management and organization of the City and TEA to serve as a control framework outlining delegation of duties and responsibilities. A. Utility Committee of The City Council The Utility Committee of The City Council Committee of the Whole (The Committee) has a responsibility to provide approval of this Policy. With this approval, The Committee also assumes additional duties. The Committee will understand the risks the City is and could be exposed to due to their energy commodity risk management activities. In this role, the Committee will have a responsibility to also understand the City’s policies and procedures, internal controls and systems which are used to help manage the City’s energy commodity risks. 7 19

Item 3. trading power or energy commodities derivative instruments for his or her personal account. It is the expressed intent of this Policy to prohibit the acquisition of risk beyond that encountered in the efficient optimization of the City’s generation and load portfolio and execution of procurement strategies. As such, speculative transactions are prohibited. In the course of developing operating plans and conducting management activities, the City recognizes that expertise must be employed by TEA staff, and it is not the intent of this Policy to restrain the legitimate application of analysis and market expertise in executing procurement strategies intended to minimize costs within the constraints of this Policy. If any questions arise as to whether a proposed transaction(s) constitutes speculation, TEA shall conduct an analysis of the transaction and the ERMC shall review the transaction(s) to determine whether the transaction(s) would constitute speculation and document its finding in the meeting minutes. Commented [KG3]: Are there Dover charter or state laws that govern this? B. Products, Activities and Limitations Pursuant to achieving the City’s core objectives for the purpose of energy commodity risk management, the following limitations shall apply.  Permissible instruments will be restricted to the products and instruments specified in Appendix A – Approved Products of the Policy; o All physical forward transactions shall be governed by the Edison Electrical Institutive (EEI), North American Energy Standards Board (NAESB), International Swap Dealers Association (ISDA), or similar agreements with counterparties approved by the City. o The City reserves the right to enter into financial hedge transactions to effectuate Policy objectives, but does not authorize TEA to enter into financial hedge transactions on its behalf.

Item 3. o Unwinding or modification of hedges to accommodate changes in expected load requirements, or for economic reasons subject to explicit constraints set by the ERMC. C. Contract Documentation and Confirmations No over-the-counter transaction may be executed until an EEI, NAESB, ISDA, or similar agreement has been authorized by the City, approved by the ERMC and fully executed by the parties. Written confirmations will be required from counterparties, as defined in the Master Service Agreement between the City and counterparty. Contemporaneous with any commitments and prior to receipt of written confirmations, verbal commitments shall be memorialized internally as to instrument structure, quantity, relevant time horizon, price and any other relevant terms; such internal documentation shall be time stamped and correlated to the ultimate written confirmation to or from the counterparty. Both the internal documentation as well as the written confirmation from the counterparty shall be provided to TEA’s Risk Control Group immediately upon receipt for verification. In the event that there is a material failure to provide timely documentation or confirmations, then at the City Manager’s sole discretion, the offending individual’s or counterparty’s authorization may be suspended. Similarly, if the failure to provide timely documentation or confirmations is due to the failure of counterparty, then at the discretion of the City Manager, a moratorium may be imposed on transactions with that counterparty. In such cases, the City Manager shall notify the ERMC of the issues leading to the suspension or moratorium. Nothing herein shall inhibit any ERMC Member from bringing control issues to the TEA’s Client Services Manager prior to a decision on materiality or the imposition of a suspension of trading privileges or counterparty moratorium. D. Training The ERMC will ensure that all City employees and/or TEA Staff that will execute transactions on behalf of the City will have appropriate training in the markets in which the transactions occur. E. New Product Protocol 13 25

Item 3. As required to manage the City’s energy commodity risk the ERMC shall approve new products provided the requirements of the New Product Approval Procedure are met. RISK LIMITS AND RISK MEASUREMENTS A. Limits The limit structure is designed to quantify the types of risk in the City’s energy commodity portfolio. The City will manage and report on its energy commodity market risk using Delegation of Authority Limit, a Volume Limit and a Locational Limit. 1. Delegation Authority The Utility Committee delegates the following approval authority limits to the Dover ERMC. The ERMC may not delegate these authorities to individuals authorized to commit Dover to financial obligations. Position Maturity Limit Term Limit Notional Value Limit Dover ERMC 5 years 5 years 20,000,000 TEA 1 month 1 month 1,000,000 Position Maturity Limit Term Limit Notional Value Limit Dover ERMC 5 years 5 years 40,000,000 TEA 1 month 1 month 1,000,000 This limit structure is not intended for use when transacting day-ahead and real time in the PJM market. 2. Volume Limits No transaction shall be executed that exceeds the City’s electric load requirements other than operation of generation consistent with PJM activities. If there is an adjustment to the City’s electric load requirements and the existing transactions greater than 100% of the adjusted electric load requirements the ERMC will review and approve the offsetting strategy deployed in sufficient proportion to mitigate the encroachment. 3. Locational Limits Non-Commodity Transactions must support the requirement of one of the City’s generation units, native load, or transaction locations. 14 26

Paj 27

Item 3. B. Stress Testing and Back Testing The City’s positions shall be periodically stress tested and models shall be back tested. The processes around these tests are outlined in the Stress Testing and Back Testing Procedure. C. Instances of Exceeding Risk Limits Should the City or TEA enter into a transaction that causes the portfolio to exceed any above mentioned limits the Electric Director shall, in addition to notifying the ERMC, also notifyERMC shall notify the Chair of The Committee as soon as practicable and shall provide periodic reports to the Chair on the status the transactions for as long as the City is exceeding its limits. The ERMC will review and determine whether any liquidation or offsetting of transactions is warranted. The incident will be documented as a Policy Exception by the Electric DirectorERMC . CREDIT POLICY Credit Risk is the risk due to the uncertainty in a counterparty’s ability to meet its contractual obligations. The primary objective of this credit policy is to manage, to the extent commercially reasonable, the credit risks associated with transactions covered in this Policy while still allowing the City to achieve its objectives. A. Measuring Credit Risk The status of credit risk will be measured and reported through reports provided by TEA. The current credit exposure will be reported at the agreement level via a Counterparty Credit Report provided by TEA. This information will be made available to TEA trading personnel so that it can be checked prior to executing transactions for the City. Those responsible for risk oversight at the City and TEA will have access to this information no less frequently than once per day. The ERMC will monitor overall credit utilization and any credit exceptions at least monthly. When measuring the current credit risk, netting will be applied to the exposure if the City’s contract with a counterparty includes provisions for netting. B. Analysis and Extension of Credit Limits Physical and financial commodity transactions will be executed with counterparties approved by the ERMC with credit available to support the transactions. The 15 27

Paj 28

Item 3. creditworthiness of a counterparty will be determined by both qualitative and quantitative factors. Factors shall include, but not limited to:  A company’s debt credit ratings provided by the rating agencies.  Financial data such as an analysis of the income statement, balance sheet, and cash flow, as well as liquidity and capital structure.  Subjective factors such as company’s fuel diversity, overall size, risk management policy and internal controls, geographic diversity, and market intelligence. A credit limit is the amount of unsecured credit granted to a counterparty. Unsecured credit exposure includes amounts owed by the counterparty, whether billed or not, and the mark-to-market differences in value in excess of any collateral which the counterparty has provided the City. Any net exposure above the collateral threshold will require the posting of additional collateral by a counterparty. or an exception from the ERMC. Further information on the City’s procedure for establishing credit is contained in the Counterparty & Credit Review Process. Collateral thresholds, term limitations and credit exposure limits will be subject to the maximums indicated in Appendix B, based upon the lower of the S&P and Moody’s credit ratings. At no time will the City incur a credit exposure with any counterparty greater than $60,000,000 other than PJM. C. Instances of Exceeding Credit Limits The City and TEA are restricted by the credit limits approved by the ERMC. The ERMC can suspend trading with a counterparty, if that counterparty’s credit limit has been reached or exceeded. The City or TEA traders shall not exceed the Counterparty Credit Limit by executing transactions with any counterparty without approval of the ERMC. The ERMC will determine when it’s appropriate to require additional collateral if a counterparty’s credit exposure exceeds its credit limit. Collateral includes standing letter of credit, cash, and prepayments. All credit exceptions will be documented and reported to the ERMC and the Committee as Policy Exceptions. REPORTING A. Risk Reporting 16 28

Paj 29

Item 3. Preparation of timely reports is critical to monitoring risk. TEA will furnish the required reports on a regular frequency for the City in a format acceptable to the ERMC. In addition, the ERMC and its designees will be provided access to the City’s risk reports as updated daily via TEA’s secure Web Portal. Reports required on a monthly basis and for periodic meetings of the ERMC include the following:  Profit and Loss Report The Profit and Loss (P&L) Report shows the daily realization of transactions at either the transaction price or the market price as transactions roll from unrealized to realized. This report should show volumes, transaction prices and market prices of realized physical and financial power and fuel transactions.  Mark to Market Report The Mark to Market (“MTM”) Report conveys the potential transaction exposure, of all existing forward transactions executed, if the energy commodity portfolio was liquidated at the most recent market settlement prices. This report should show volumes, transaction prices and market prices of unrealized physical and financial power and fuel transactions.  Daily Activity Report The Activity Report presents a summary of the day’s trades executed in the bilateral energy market.  Cost of Service Report The City’s exposure to energy price risk shall be monitored and reported on a Cost-of- Service basis. All calculations are at the wholesale level. The Cost-of-Service recognizes all prior (expired) months within the Power Year on the basis of actual (incurred) costs, and recognizes all forward (pending) months within the Power Year on the basis of expected forward power and fuel prices and expected forward load-following risks. As defined below, the Cost-of-Service is an aggregation of Forward Energy Commodity Portfolio Cost, the Load Following Cost Expectation and the City’s Budget Target for Purchase Power Expense. o The Net Purchased Power Cost shows the net cost of all physical and financial transactions related to the City’s anticipated commodity requirements for power and fuel and is based on the price of all hedge transactions plus the forward market price of all unhedged transactions valued at current forward prices for energy commodities, customer-level cost per MWH of all physical and financial transactions related to Dover’s actual plus anticipated energy. o The expected fixed costs defined as load-serving entity (LSE) capacity costs, transmission costs and TEA management fees. 17 29

Paj 30

Item 3. o The Expected Load-Following Cost for a specified power year is defined as the expected cost (or revenue) associated with intra-month load variations due to weather or other events affecting demand. The ERMC will update the Expected Load Following estimate while lack of necessary market information persists no less than annually. o The Budget Target for Purchase Power Expense represents the City’s view of expected purchase power expense. B. Credit Reporting  Counterparty Credit Report The Counterparty Credit Report conveys the exposure to all counterparties with which the City has credit exposure resulting from its energy commodity risk management activities.  CFTC Reporting The City understands that transacting over the counter (OTC) swaps carries an additional Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) reporting function. Once required by the CFTC, the City will report on how the City generally meets its financial obligations associated with entering into non-cleared swaps in a manner acceptable to the CFTC. C. Hedge Effectiveness Reporting If the City’s transactions require a hedge effectiveness test, those testing results will be reported to the ERMC no later than one month after the end of the financial reporting period. The report will include a summary of testing methodology, assumptions of the testing and the outcome of results with a pass or fail by transaction. INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY SYSTEMS TEA’s Middle Office will maintain a set of records for all transactions executed in association with City procurement activities. The records will be maintained in US Dollars and transactions will be separately recorded and categorized by type of transaction. The system of report shall be auditable. The following safeguards for data security and backup will be installed:  Transaction data stored in the system of record will be replicated daily to ensure data redundancy;  The TEA Energy Trading Risk Management database will be backed up at least daily. 18 30

Item 3. APPENDIX D – Glossary Back Office – That part of a trading organization which handles transaction accounting, confirmations, management reporting, and working capital management. Bilateral Transaction - Any physical or financial transaction between two counterparties, neither of whom is an Exchange or market entity (e.g. MISO). Capacity – The real power output rating of a generator or system, typically in megawatts, measured on an instantaneous basis. Commodity - A basic good used in commerce that is interchangeable with other commodities of the same type. Commodities are most often used as inputs in the production of other goods or services. The quality of a given commodity may differ slightly, but it is essentially uniform across producers. When they are traded on an exchange, commodities must also meet specified minimum standards, also known as a basis grade. Financial Bilateral Transaction – A Bilateral Transaction that is non-physical and is defined by a Source Point, Sink Point, and Delivery Point that may be any CP Nodes as specified by the Midwest ISO. Financial Forward – An agreement regarding a position in a specified commodity, a specified price, and a specified future settlement date, that does not result in physical delivery of the commodity. Rather one party in the agreement makes a payment to the other party on the basis of the commodity price at the future date. Front Office – That part of a trading organization which solicits customer business, services existing customers, executes trades and ensures the physical delivery of commodities. Hedging Transaction - A transaction designed to reduce the exposure of a specific outstanding position or portfolio; “fully hedged” equates to complete elimination of the targeted risk and “partially hedged” implies a risk reduction of less than 100%. Mark-to-Market Value – A measure of the current value of unrealized positions; includes both Open Positions and Closed Positions. Maturity – The time between the date on which a transaction is executed to the last date that power or gas will flow (in the case of physical transactions) or be settled financially (in the case of financial transactions). For products such as RECs which may be 28 40

Paj 41

Item 3. delivered independent of energy flow, the maturity shall be defined as the vintage period plus any additional time it may take to deliver the RECs, which may extend beyond / past the vintage period Middle Office – That part of a trading organization that measures and reports on market risks, develops risk management policies and monitors compliance with those policies, manages contract administration and credit, and keeps management and the Board informed on risk management issues. Policy – Dover’s Governing Policy for Energy Commodity Risk, as amended and approved by The Utility Committee. Portfolio – A collection of transactions. Realized Gains/(Losses) – The amount earned (or lost) from a transaction, considered to be realized once the time for performance has lapsed (e.g. delivery of power in the case of physical transactions or expiration of an option in the case of financial transactions). Term – The total duration of a contract, defined as the number of days between the beginning flow date and ending flow date, inclusive..- Unrealized Gains/ (Losses) – The amount expected to earn (lose) on a specific transaction(s); however, the time for performance has not lapsed. The total value of Unrealized Gains/ (Losses) is the Mark-to-Market value. 29 41

BACKGROUND AND ANALYSIS: The six-way intersection of Governors Boulevard, Ross Street and Bradford Street was added to the City of Dover’s 2023 Transportation Priorities listing due to several traffic accidents that have occurred as well as related safety issues. As a result of these concerns, Representative Sean Lynn has offered to fund a solution to this traffic concern through community transportation (CT) funds. In turn, the Delaware Department of Transportation (DelDOT), through a consultant, has analyzed three different roundabout/traffic circle options. The results of this analysis are provided in Exhibit A. Each option analyzed has advantages and disadvantages. Option 1 is a modern roundabout that maintains all lanes on all roads at the junction. One of the main disadvantages of this option is that it would require the total take of six (6) existing homes and properties. The project also could not be pursued with CT funds as it involves right-of-way and drainage impacts beyond the scope of the traffic calming program. Option 1a is a modified roundabout that eliminates lanes on Ross Street and Bradford Street to reduce the 53

Item 4. size of the roundabout. One of the main disadvantages of this option is that it would still impact four (4) properties which includes the total take of two (2) existing homes and properties. This project also could not be pursued with CT funds for the same reasons as that presented for Option 1. Option 2 is a mini traffic circle within the existing limits of the intersection to act as a traffic calming device. Due to the size, larger vehicles would need to utilize the fully mountable central island. This is a relatively new form of traffic control that may require an educational component to get local motorists familiar with its use. This option could be pursued with CT funds. It should be noted that the speed on Governors Boulevard was reduced earlier this year to 25 MPH from 35 MPH. A six (6) month evaluation of the impact is currently being scheduled by DelDOT. Other traffic calming options can also be reviewed by DelDOT including adding additional signage and painting the roadway, such as narrowing lanes. As a result of the above staff recommends receiving public input regarding the options presented and to allow for additional research into low impact options due to the disadvantages associated with Options 1, 1a and 2 above. Should City Council select Option 2, City staff can work with DelDOT and Representative Lynn’s office to proceed with design and ultimately installation. 54

Item 4. Governors Avenue/Ross Street and Bradford Street November 2022 Safety Improvement Options Governors Avenue/Ross Street and Bradford Street Safety Improvement Options November 2022 Option 1 – 6-Legged Roundabout – Maintain all Lanes Option 1 is a roundabout concept that maintains all lanes on Governors Avenue, Ross Street and S. Bradford Street. The size of the roundabout is necessary to accommodate all legs at this junction while maintaining entry and exit flares on all 6 legs of the junction. This option also provides pedestrian accessibility throughout the intersection and accommodates design vehicles up to a WB-50 for several (but not all) turning movements. This concept was developed primarily to show the extent of impacts that would result from constructing a modern roundabout that maintains all lanes on all roads at this junction. Advantages: • Maintains all lanes of travel on the existing six legs of the intersection. • Splitter islands provide direction (channelization) for vehicles when entering the roundabout to direct them into the circulating lane of the roundabout, while also providing pedestrian refuge. • Roundabouts act as a traffic calming device and do not give priority to any one leg of the intersection. They are also proven to improve safety as left turning movements are eliminated. • Improves sight distances on each leg of the intersection. • Offers beautification options in the center island. Disadvantages: • Requires the total take of 6 existing homes and properties adjacent to the intersection. • Overall cost for design and construction would be the highest of all 3 options. • Would require extensive drainage and stormwater management devices due to the added pavement to the intersection. • Even as shown, does not meet FHWA (NCHRP) roundabout design guidance for several approaches in terms of approach or departure radii to obtain approach/circulating/departure speed consistency. • Eliminates some parking along each leg of the intersection. • Creates conflicts with 2 existing driveways which will require modifying driveway access. • Does not qualify as a Traffic Calming project due to right-of-way and drainage impacts. City of Dover would have to work with Dover/Kent MPO for eventual inclusion into the CTP. Option 1a – 6-Legged Roundabout – Limited Access on Ross Street and S. Bradford Street Option 1a is a modification of Option 1 and eliminates lanes on Ross Street and S. Bradford Street to help reduce the size of the proposed roundabout. This option also provides pedestrian accessibility throughout the intersection and accommodates design vehicles up to an SU-40 for most movements. Advantages: • Splitter islands provide direction (channelization) for vehicles when entering the roundabout to direct them into the circulating lane of the roundabout, while also providing pedestrian refuge. 55

Item 4. Governors Avenue/Ross Street and Bradford Street November 2022 Safety Improvement Options • Roundabouts act as a traffic calming device and do not give priority to any one leg of the intersection. They are also proven to improve safety as left turning movements are eliminated. • Improves sight distances on each leg of the intersection. • Offers beautification options in the center island. • The limited access option allows for a smaller roundabout (and lower cost) compared to Option 1. • Access restrictions on Ross Street and S. Bradford Street help to reduce cut through traffic. Disadvantages: • Requires the total take of 2 existing homes and properties adjacent to the intersection and negotiation with 2 other homeowners due to minor property impacts near the roundabout. • Higher cost for design and construction compared to Option 2. • Would require extensive drainage and stormwater management devices due to the added pavement to the intersection. • Eliminates some parking along each leg of the intersection. • Creates conflicts with 2 existing driveways which will require modifying driveway access. • Eliminates through movements on 2 approaches – although on low volume roads with relatively short diversion routes. • Does not qualify as a Traffic Calming project due to right-of-way and drainage impacts. City of Dover would have to work with Dover/Kent MPO for eventual inclusion into the CTP. Option 2 – 6-Legged Mini Traffic Circle Option 2 is a 6-legged mini traffic circle located within the existing intersection limits to act as a traffic calming device through the existing intersection. This option also provides pedestrian accessibility throughout the intersection and accommodates design vehicles up to an SU-40, similar to existing conditions. Larger trucks (WB-67) can still travel straight through this intersection along Governor’s Avenue by utilizing the fully mountable central island. Advantages: • Mini Traffic Circles act as a traffic calming device and do not give priority to any one leg of the intersection. They are also proven to improve safety as left turning movements are eliminated. • Lowest cost for design and construction compared to other options. • Would require minimal drainage improvements and no stormwater management. • Does not require any right of way takings or major property impacts. • Accommodates smaller design vehicles, limiting trucks entering the neighborhoods. • Can be pursued as a Traffic Calming project. Disadvantages: • Eliminates a small amount of curbside parking along each leg of the intersection. • Not enough room to accommodate splitter islands, providing less channelization for vehicles approaching the roundabout compared to the roundabout options, and no refuge for pedestrians. • Relatively new form of traffic control (mini-traffic circle) may require an educational component to get local motorists more familiar with its use, particularly by truck drivers that will need to drive across the central island to make several turning movements. 56

Required Communications Item 5. SBC 1. Auditor’s Responsibilities Under Generally Accepted Auditing Standards (GAAS) The financial statements are the responsibility of management. Our audit was designed in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, and provide for reasonable, rather than absolute, assurance that the financial statements are free of material misstatement. We were engaged to perform our audit in accordance with the standards of the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. 2. Significant Accounting Policies Management has the responsibility for the selection and use of appropriate accounting policies. In accordance with the terms of our engagement letter, we will advise management about the appropriateness of accounting policies and their application. The significant accounting policies used by management are described in the notes to the financial statements. 3. Auditor’s Judgments About the Quality of Accounting Principles We discuss our judgments about the quality, not just the acceptability, of accounting principles selected by management, the consistency of their application, and the clarity and completeness of the financial statements, which include related disclosures. We have reviewed the significant accounting policies adopted by the City and have determined that these policies are acceptable accounting policies. 69 9

2022 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Introductory Section Item 5. December 20, 2022 The Honorable Mayor, Honorable Council President, Members of the City Council and Citizens of the City of Dover Dover, Delaware 19901 Ladies and Gentlemen: I am pleased to submit the Annual Comprehensive Financial Report of the City of Dover for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022. This report is published to comply with the provisions of Article IV, Section 46 of the City Charter. It is also intended to provide financial data to the tax and ratepayers, bondholders, trustees, banks, federal and state agencies, and the financial community at large. Management assumes full responsibility for the completeness and reliability of the information contained in this report, based upon a comprehensive framework of internal control that it has established for this purpose. Because the cost of internal control should not exceed anticipated benefits, the objective is to provide reasonable, rather than absolute, assurance that the financial statements are free of any material misstatements. The financial statements in this report have been audited by SB & Company, LLC, an independent firm of certified public accountants as required by Section 46 of the City Charter. SB & Company, LLC has provided an unmodified opinion on the City of Dover financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2022. The report of independent public accountants is located at the front of the financial section of this report. Management’s Discussion and Analysis (MD&A) provides a narrative introduction, overview, and analysis of the basic financial statements. The MD&A complements this letter of transmittal and should be read in conjunction with it. Our MD&A can be found immediately following the report of our independent auditors. THE REPORTING ENTITY AND ITS SERVICES The City of Dover was incorporated in 1829 under a Charter granted by the General Assembly. Dover is the Capital of the State of Delaware and is in the central part of the State. It is home to the State Governor’s office, legislative offices, and is the County seat for Kent County. The City currently occupies a land area of 23.91 square miles and serves a population of approximately 39,491. Dover’s governing body is composed of a Mayor and nine Council Members, with one Council Member elected by 3 87

Paj 88

2022 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Introductory Section Item 5. Council to serve as Council President. Two members of City Council are elected from each of the four districts; the ninth Council member of Council and the Mayor are elected at-large. The Council is responsible for all matters of policy and is the authority for levying taxes, securing revenues, authorizing expenditures of City funds and incurring City debts. The City of Dover operates under a Council – Manager form of government. The City provides a full range of services as mandated by the Charter or adopted by the City Council. They include police protection, street, sanitation and stormwater maintenance, recreation, library, community development, economic development, public improvements, planning and zoning, safety inspections, electric power generation and distribution, water and wastewater services, legislative services, and general administration. Within the City is a volunteer fire company that is autonomous. Under established criteria, the operations of the Robbins Hose Fire Company are not a part of this report. However, the City provides financing for dispatching, personnel costs, most of the building and equipment maintenance, supplies, and contractual services. The City also provides funding to Robbins Hose for payments on fire engine no. 5 and fire engine Squad no. 1. These payments are grouped under the Fire Department and are included in the General Fund. The Fire Chief is elected by the volunteer members of the Fire Company. The City Council traditionally adopts the election and officially appoints the Fire Chief for a one-year term. Therefore, the Fire Department is included in the City organization chart. The Capital School District does not meet the established criteria for inclusion in the reporting entity and, accordingly, is excluded from this report. The City Council shall, on or before the second Monday of June in each year, adopt a budget for the succeeding fiscal year. This annual budget serves as the foundation for the City of Dover’s financial planning and control. The budget is prepared by fund and department. With approval of the City Manager and Controller/Treasurer, Department Heads may transfer resources within or between departments, except for salaries/fringe benefits and capital project budgets. Transfers between funds and transfers of capital project budgets, however, need special approval from the City Council. ECONOMIC CONDITION AND FUTURE GROWTH Dover continues to be the dominant center of population, employment, commerce, education, and culture in Central Delaware. Economic growth continues in all sectors with construction and permit activity occurring during the year, showing modest recovery from the effects of a nation-wide pandemic. Population and employment growth remain steady, but consumer spending has been reduced and some retail market softness could continue to impact utility and other revenues. Growth in the health care and commercial/retail sectors is especially strong, with significant new projects occurring throughout the City. New manufacturing businesses are creating significant employment opportunities and adding to the City and County economies. Revitalization of the historic Downtown commercial core continues somewhat slowly, but increasingly successful projects to include the older nearby residential neighborhoods is ongoing. 4 88

2022 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Introductory Section Item 5. There were 2,048 building permits of all types issued in FY22, up from the prior year. The City issued 3,725 business licenses, slightly up from the previous year, reflecting a continued recovery of economic conditions. A year-to-year comparison is not necessarily indicative of the health of Dover’s economy due to the timing of activity and the variability of general economic factors. Growth and development trends during fiscal year 2022 are discussed below. Population Growth The decennial census was conducted in 2020 and set Dover’s April 1, 2020 population at 39,403 (an increase of about 9.3% since 2010). Dover’s population is projected to grow to 41,032 by 2030, with a sustained growth rate of about 5% during each of the next ten-year periods. Statistically, Dover’s population is younger than that of the County or the State, with a slightly lower proportion of population of senior citizens as well. Working-age adults (23-64) are projected to remain stable as a percentage of the City’s population, making up slightly less than half of the City’s population through 2030. Residential Development A renewed interest in the build-out of residential subdivisions occurred in FY22 for the City, with over eighty-three (83) permits issued for a mix of one-family detached dwellings, duplexes, and townhomes. There was residential construction activity in Eden Hill Farm TND, Patriot Village, Oak Shadows, Nottingham Meadows, and Lexington Glen. A series of permits for one-family dwelling infill projects were also issued throughout the year including within the area of the Downtown Development District and other scattered lots citywide. A number of manufactured home placements also occurred on existing lots in Dover East Estates. Approximately thirty (30) new dwelling units were completed and received Certificates of Occupancy by year’s end. FY22 also saw continued activity with Fence, Shed, and Deck Permits as people made improvements at their residences. Construction activity for multi-family units only included the completion in December 2021 of the reconstruction of the Baytree Apartment building (previously destroyed by fire in April 2020). Downtown Dover Redevelopment Revitalization of the historic Downtown core is continuing in both commercial and residential sectors, with potential new businesses locating in existing spaces, primarily along Loockerman Street. Through the efforts of groups like National Council on Agricultural Life and Labor (NCALL) and Habitat for Humanity, numerous deteriorated and blighted residential properties have been demolished and are being replaced by new owner-occupied dwellings, transforming entire block-fronts adjacent to the commercial core. Over the course of FY 22, the City authorized $16,642 in Permit Fee Waivers for 26 properties for the purpose of new housing or business. This includes seventeen new homes which have been built or are in the process of being built within the Downtown Development District. Addresses include 15, 35, and 39 North New Street; 2 and 147 South New Street; 14, 20, 60, 67, 101 and 103 South Queen Street; 23 and 25 South Governors Avenue; 217 North Kirkwood Street; 49 South Kirkwood Street and 534 Fulton Street. Retail/Commercial Development 5 89

2022 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Introductory Section Item 5. This sector continues to show significant growth with new and expanded locations along the major highway corridors and throughout the City. Renovations were completed for numerous commercial projects, several of which include the Sugar Factory Restaurant at Baileys, Bob’s Discount Furniture on North Dupont Highway, Rise Physical Therapy in the Gateway West Shopping Center, the FedEx facility on Starlifter Avenue, the Macy’s fulfillment center at the Dover Mall and Wing Stop on North Dupont Highway. The new facility for the Delaware Solid Waste Authority is currently under construction. An office for Delaware State Police/Homeland Security, and other commercial buildings and renovations were also completed in the Bay Road area. Manufacturing, Health Care, Institutional and Other Sectors Development Dover’s economy is well balanced across a range of sectors including manufacturing, health care, government and military, education, and industrial categories. Manufacturing showed strong growth during FY22, with both small and large firms such as Shore Industries and Avalon, and Delmarva Corrugated Packaging (a 450,000 square foot+ state of the art new manufacturer of corrugated paper packaging) making Dover home. In education, Delaware State University has numerous renovation projects underway on both their main and downtown campus. The Capital School District began construction of two middle schools and completed renovations of William Henry school, damaged a year earlier by a tornado. Two large governmental projects are in development, and one completed: site planning for a future Family Court facility is underway; and construction of a new, relocated U.S. Post Office for Dover has been completed. Both locations are within the downtown area. The other governmental project is the completion of the garage at the Delaware Department of Transportation Central District Facility. Summary Fiscal Year 2022 saw a continuation of strong growth in the state capital. Dover remains the geographic and economic center of the County, and is well posed for future growth, development, and reinvestment.

The City also had smaller projects begin in the area(s) of Persimmon Apartments and Heatherfield and undertook manhole replacement work on Stoney Drive. In addition to capital improvements, there was $0.1 million in equipment purchases. The City maintains a five-year Capital Investment Plan which serves as its planning and budgeting tool to program upgrades and replacements to its equipment, facilities, and infrastructure. As part of this process, operating expenses are identified, and funding sources are determined. Managers are required to rank capital expenditures by criticality, based on the impacts on customer services and revenue losses. The fiscal year 2022/2023 Capital Investment Plan totaled $23.3 million to include numerous vehicle, equipment, and infrastructure and utility improvement projects. The Capital Investment Plan is presented to City Council each year during the budget workshops, and the final plan is approved by City Council along with the annual budget. In fiscal year 2023, the General Fund capital improvements budget is $6.3 million. The Public Works-Stormwater department has an approved budget of $2.1 million for miscellaneous storm sewer, dam, and basin improvements to include Persimmon Park Place, and Mirror Lake Drainage Basin improvements as well as replacement of Leaf Vac equipment. The Parks and Recreation department has earmarked funding of $1.0 million for Park Improvements at the Dover Park Building to include an addition of a Splash Pad and there is also funding of $0.7 million for Schutte Park Skate Park. The Parks and Recreation project budgets include general funds, Parkland Reserve funds as well as State Grant funding.

2022 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Introductory Section Item 5. The Water Fund budget includes capital improvements of $0.9 million. Of the projects identified to be completed are as follows: Wellhead Redevelopment, SCADA equipment upgrades and several smaller identified projects such as Water Tank and Water Main upgrades. The total Wastewater Fund capital improvements budget is $1.0 million and will be used for inflow and infiltration removal, various pump station replacement/improvements and miscellaneous emergency repairs. The Electric Fund is projecting $7.4 million in capital improvements for FY23. The new development budget totals $1.4 million. The McKee Run Power plant decommissioning project continues and will span several years of which the FY23 budget includes $4.0 million this as the project has slowly been progressing through DNREC environmental sampling and testing requirements after which the plant decommissioning will be planned and initiated. The electric administration division has projects totaling $1.6 million to include the REED street HVAC Overhaul and the renovation of the Electric Admin rear log renovation. The electric engineering division has an array of capital improvement projects totaling $0.7 million of this proposed amount there are software and equipment upgrades for such things as SCADA Hardware Replacement, Small Cell Wireless Improvements and ArcFM Migration to Electric Utility Network. FINANCIAL POLICIES AND FINANCIAL PLANNING Unassigned fund balances in the General Fund of 25.3% exceeded the policy guidelines of a minimum of 8% and maximum of 12% of current year operating revenues as approved by City Council in the City of Dover financial policies. This overage was attributed to higher than anticipated Transfer Tax receipts as well as lower than budgeted expenditures along all functions of the government due to attrition and vacancies, and as a result, the fiscal year 2023 budget will be adjusted to address the overage. The water and wastewater utility guidelines are to maintain a minimum budget balance of at least 8% and no greater than 17% (two months) of the current year operating revenues. The current budget balances as of June 30, 2022, for the utilities are water at 29.4% of the actual water revenues and wastewater at 29.8% of the actual wastewater revenues. Both budget balances are outside of the guidelines and will be addressed in the fiscal year 2023 budget. The electric utility is to maintain a minimum budget balance of at least 12% (45 days) of the current year operating revenues, less the Distribution of Earnings – PCA Credit. If the balances fall below the established percentages, the City Manager is required to submit budgets to bring the balances up to minimum within three years. The electric utility ended the year with a budget balance greater than the 12%, at 26.6%. This was attributed to higher than projected power supply and generation cost offset by lower than anticipated divisional expense and debt service expense. The City policies also require non-recurring revenues to be set aside for capital improvements as designated by City Council (reserve accounts) and a $700,000 contingency reserve in the General Fund, $250,000 each for the Water and Wastewater Fund contingency reserves and $750,000 contingency in the Electric Revenue Fund to address unforeseeable natural disasters and insurance losses. All major funds meet the contingency reserve requirements. 8 92

Item 5. REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS ON THE AUDIT OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council of Dover, Delaware Opinion We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the governmental activities, the business- type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City of Dover, Delaware (the City), as of and for the year ended June 30, 2022, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the City’s basic financial statements as listed in the table of contents. In our opinion the accompanying financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City, as of June 30, 2022, and the respective changes in financial position and, where applicable, cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Basis for Opinion We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAS). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are required to be independent of the City, and to meet our other ethical responsibilities, in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements relating to our audit. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion. Responsibilities of Management for the Financial Statements The City’s management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and for the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal controls relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the financial statements, management is required to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the City’s ability to continue as a going concern for a year after the financial statements are available for issue, including any currently known information that may raise substantial doubt shortly thereafter. Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. 10200 Grand Central Avenue • Suite 250 • Owings Mills • Maryland 21117 • P 410-584-0060 • F 410-584-0061 107

Item 5. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with GAAS will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal controls. Misstatements are considered material if there is a substantial likelihood that, individually or in the aggregate, they would influence the judgment made by a reasonable user based on the financial statements. In performing an audit in accordance with GAAS, we: • Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. • Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, and design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. • Obtain an understanding of internal controls relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the City’s internal controls. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed. • Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluate the overall presentation of the financial statements. • Conclude whether, in our judgment, there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the City’s ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time. We are required to communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit, significant audit findings, and certain internal controls– related matters that we identified during the audit. Required Supplementary Information Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the management’s discussion and analysis, the General fund-schedule of revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund balance-budget and actual; the schedules of changes in net pension liability, related ratios for the police pension plan and the general employee pension plan; the schedule of employer contributions for the police pension plan and the general employee pension plan, the schedule of the City’s proportionate share of the net pension liability for the county and municipal police and firefighters pension plan; the schedule of the City’s contributions for the county and municipal police and firefighters pension plan; and the schedule of changes in net OPEB liability, related ratios for the OPEB plan, schedule of City contributions for the OPEB plan, and the schedule of investment returns for the police pension plan, general employee pension plan, and OPEB plan, and the notes to required supplementary information, as listed in the accompanying table of contents, be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such information, although not a part of the basic financial statements, is required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board who considers it to be an essential part of financial reporting for placing the basic financial statements in an appropriate operational, economic, or historical context. We have applied certain limited procedures to the required supplementary 108

Paj 109

Item 5. information in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which consisted of inquiries of management about the methods of preparing the information and comparing the information for consistency with management’s responses to our inquiries, the basic financial statements, and other knowledge we obtained during our audit of the basic financial statements. We do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on the information because the limited procedures do not provide us with sufficient evidence to express an opinion or provide any assurance. Supplementary Information Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the financial statements that collectively comprise the City’s basic financial statements. The combining and individual fund financial statements (nonmajor governmental funds, internal service funds, and fiduciary funds) and budgetary comparison schedules are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements. The combining and individual fund financial statements and budgetary comparison schedules are the responsibility of management and were derived from and relate directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial statements. Such information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such information directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial statements or to the basic financial statements themselves, and other additional procedures in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. In our opinion, based on our audit and the procedures described above, the combining and individual fund financial statements and supplementary schedules are fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the basic financial statements as a whole. Other Information Management is responsible for the other information included in the annual comprehensive financial report. The other information comprises the introductory and statistical sections but does not include the financial statements and our independent public accountant’s report thereon. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information, and we do not express an opinion or any form of assurance thereon. In connection with our audit of the basic financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and consider whether a material inconsistency exists between the other information and the financial statements, or the other information otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work performed, we conclude that an uncorrected material misstatement of the other information exists, we are required to describe it in our report.

2022 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Financial Section – Part B – Management’s Discussion and Analysis Item 5. The City of Dover Management’s Discussion and Analysis For the Year Ended June 30, 2022 The following is a discussion and analysis of the City of Dover’s (the City’s) financial activities for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022. Readers are encouraged to consider the information presented here in conjunction with additional information provided in our letter of transmittal, which can be found on pages 3-9 of this report, and the City’s financial statements which follow this section. Financial Highlights The City’s assets and deferred outflows of resources exceeded its liabilities and deferred inflows of resources by $267.6 million (net position). Included in this amount is a positive $38.0 million balance in “unrestricted net position”. The total Net Position represents the funds available to meet the City’s ongoing obligations to citizens and creditors. Governmental activities reported a positive unrestricted net position of $6.8 million and the business-type activities; Water, Wastewater and Electric funds, reported a positive $31.2 million unrestricted net position. The difference between the unrestricted amounts and the total net position is $229.6 million, of which $75.1 million is restricted primarily for debt and capital construction purposes, and $154.5 million is net investment in capital assets. Total assets increased for the governmental activities by $9.3 million and the business-type activities total assets decreased in the amount of $5.1 million. Deferred Outflows for both the governmental activities and business-type activities increased by $6.2 million and $2.7 million respectively. Deferred Inflows increased for the governmental activities by $0.2 million, and business-type activities decreased by $1.0 million. Liabilities decreased for the governmental activities by $3.3 million, and for the business-type activities, the liabilities increased by $0.7 million. • For governmental activities, the City reported: a decrease of $0.8 million invested in capital assets, an increase in restricted net assets of $4.3 million, and an increase of $15.1 million in unrestricted net position. As a result of its operations, the City recognized a positive change in net position of governmental activities of $18.6 million. The current year’s change in net position is $6.4 million higher than the previous years’ change in net position and is primarily due to increases in program revenues totaling $6.3 million including an increase in property taxes of $0.5 million, the expenses increased across all functions of government except for the community and economic development function. The increase in indirect expense allocation offset the increases in expense, resulting in an overall increase in expense of $0.8 million. There was an increase in transfers of $1.0 million, rounding out the increase in net position of $18.6 million. • For business-type activities, the City reported: an increase of $0.7 million invested in capital assets, a decrease in restricted net position of $3.7 million and an increase of $0.9 million in unrestricted net position. As a result of its operations, the City recognized a negative change in net position of business-type activities of $2.1 million, which is a decrease from last years’ positive change of $9.3 million driven primarily by reductions of total revenues of $1.7 million which includes a net increase of $1.7 million for water, wastewater, and electric charges for services. Other contributing factors were a significant loss on investments totaling $3.5 million. Total 113 29

Paj 114

2022 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Financial Section – Part B – Management’s Discussion and Analysis Item 5. expenses increased in the amount of $8.7 million substantially driven by an increase in electric expenses of $8.1 million, as well as an increase in indirect expense allocations of $0.6 million rounding out the decrease in net position of $2.1 million, which is $11.4 million less than the prior years’ net increase. Overview of the Financial Statements This discussion and analysis section is intended to serve as an introduction to the City’s Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR). The ACFR consists primarily of three required components: 1) management’s discussion and analysis (this section), 2) the basic financial statements; and 3) required supplementary information. The ACFR also includes optional supplementary information that provides summary and detail level information, and a statistical section. The basic financial statements are presented in two categories that present different views of the City’s financial condition: • The two government-wide financial statements (pages 47-48) provide both long-term and short-term information about the City’s overall financial position and operations. • The remaining (pages 49-57) fund financial statements focus on specific activities of City government, reporting the City’s operations in more detail than the government-wide statements. The City financial statements can be divided into three categories: governmental funds, proprietary funds, and fiduciary funds. - The Governmental fund statements (pages 49-52) tell how general government services, like community services, planning, public safety, and public works, were financed in the short term, as well as what remains for future spending. - Proprietary fund statements (pages 53-55) offer short and long-term financial information about the activities the government operates like a business, which for the City of Dover are the Electric, Water & Wastewater Funds. - The Fiduciary fund statements (pages 56-57) provide information about the financial relationships in which the City acts solely as a trustee or custodian for the benefit of others, to whom the resources belong. The City is the trustee, or fiduciary, for its Employee and Police Pension plans and Other Post-Employment Benefits plan and acts in a custodial capacity for the Fourth of July Celebration Committee and the Dover Days Celebration Fund, none of which are component units of the City. All the City’s fiduciary activities are reported in separate Statements of Fiduciary Net Position and Changes in Fiduciary Net Position. These activities are excluded from the City’s other financial statements because the City may not use these assets to finance its operations. The City is responsible for ensuring that the assets reported in these funds are used for their intended purposes. The financial statements also include notes (pages 61-123) that explain some of the information in them and provide more detailed data. The statements are followed by a section of required supplementary information (pages 127-138) that further explains and supports the information in the financial 114 30

Other supplementary information includes details on non-major funds and other information that can be found on pages 141 through 170. The following table summarizes the major features of the City’s financial statements, including the portion of the City government they cover and the types of information they contain. The remainder of this overview section of management’s discussion and analysis explains the structure and content of each of the statements: Major Features of City’s Government-wide and Fund Financial Statements Government-wide Statements Governmental Funds Proprietary Funds Fiduciary Funds Scope Entire City The activities of the Activities the City Instances in which government City that are not operates like private the City is the (except fiduciary proprietary or businesses, such as trustee or funds) fiduciary, such as electric, water and custodian for public safety and wastewater funds someone else’s public works resources Required financial • Statement of • Balance sheet • Statement of • Statement of statements net position • Statement of net position fiduciary net • Statement of revenues, • Statement of position activities expenditures, revenues, • Statement of and changes in expenses, and changes in fund balances changes in net fiduciary net position position • Statement of cash flows Accounting basis Accrual Modified accrual Accrual accounting Accrual accounting and measurement accounting and accounting and and economic and economic focus economic current financial resources focus resources focus resources focus resources focus 115 31

The statement of net position includes all the City of Dover’s assets, liabilities, and deferred inflows and outflows of resources with the difference reported as net position. Net position is one way to measure the City’s financial health or position. Over time, increases or decreases in the City’s net position is an indicator of whether its financial health is improving or deteriorating, respectively. To assess the overall health of the City, one needs to consider additional non-financial factors such as changes in the City’s property tax base and the condition of the City’s physical assets and infrastructure. The government-wide financial statements of the City are divided into two categories: • Governmental activities—Most of the City’s basic services are included here, such as general government, public safety, planning and code enforcement, public works, library and recreation, community and economic development, central services, and financial administration. Property taxes, business licenses, permits, sanitation fees, fines, utility transfers, and state and federal grants finance most of these activities. • Business-type activities—The City charges fees to customers to help it cover the costs of certain services it provides. The City’s electric, water, and wastewater services are included here. 116 32

Paj 117

2022 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Financial Section – Part B – Management’s Discussion and Analysis Item 5. Fund Financial Statements The fund financial statements provide more detailed information about the City’s most significant funds— not the City as a whole. Funds are accounting devices that the City uses to keep track of specific sources of funding and spending for specific purposes. Some funds are required by State law and by covenants. The City Council may also establish other funds to control and manage spending for other purposes. The City has three kinds of funds: • Governmental Funds - Most of the City’s basic services are included in governmental funds, which focus on (1) how cash and other financial assets that can readily be converted to cash flow in and out, and (2) the balances left at year end that are available for spending. Consequently, the governmental funds statements provide a detailed short-term view that helps one determine whether there are more or fewer financial resources that can be spent soon to finance the City’s programs. Because this information does not encompass the additional long-term focus of the government-wide statements, we provide additional information on a separate schedule, which explains the relationship (or differences) between them. - Governmental Fund Balance classifications are reported to the extent to which they are constrained as promulgated by GAAP. - The City’s General Fund is the only governmental fund considered to be a major fund under the requirements of GAAP. • Proprietary Funds – Services for which the City charges customers a fee, are generally reported in proprietary funds. Proprietary funds, like the government-wide statements, provide both long and short-term financial information. - The City’s enterprise funds (one type of proprietary fund) are the same as its business-type activities, but provide more detail and additional information, such as cash flows. - The City’s Electric, Water, and Wastewater enterprise funds are considered major funds under the requirements of GAAP. • Fiduciary Funds – The City is responsible for certain assets which are held for the benefit of parties outside the government. The City is responsible for ensuring that the assets reported in these funds are used for their intended purposes. All the City’s fiduciary activities are reported separately in a statement of fiduciary net position and a statement of changes in fiduciary net position. These activities are excluded from the City’s government-wide financial statements because the City cannot use these assets to finance its operations. 117 33

Financial Analysis of the City as a Whole The City produces government-wide financial statements using the full accrual basis of accounting and economic resource management focus. As year-to-year financial information is accumulated on a consistent basis, changes in net assets may be observed and used to discuss the changing financial position of the City as a whole.

Governmental net position increased by $18.6 million; this is an increase of $6.4 million from the prior years’ positive change in net position of $12.2 million. Total revenues of $39.5 million were more than the prior year by $6.3 million. The increase in revenues is primarily due to increases in: charges for services, operating grants and contributions, capital grants and contributions as well as property tax receipts, which exceeded the FY21 revenues by $7.4 million. The increases were partially offset by decreases in transfer taxes and investment earnings reducing the revenues by $1.1 million. Total expenses of $32.9 million reflects an increase from the prior year by $0.8 million across all but two functions of government – Community and Economic Development – which decreased its FY22 spending by about $0.4 million and – Financial Administration – which remained constant. The increase in 119 35

Revenues by Source - Governmental Activities Interfund Receipts 9% Charges for Services 20% Utility Transfer In 21% Operating Grants and Contributions 14% Capital Grants and Transfer Taxes Contributions 8% 1% Property Taxes 27% Business-Type Activities The business-type activities generated a decrease in net position of $2.1 million, which was $11.4 million less than the previous year’s change in net position of $9.3 million. The decrease was primarily due to the combination of $1.7 million in total revenue reductions, additional expense increases totaling $8.7 million. Transfers included $1.0 million transferred out of the water & wastewater funds and $11.0 million out of the electric fund to the general fund. The indirect expense allocation increased by $0.6 million. The water utility fund realized a positive change in net position of approximately $1.1 million; a decrease of $0.8 million from the prior year. Operating revenues increased by $0.5 million primarily due to an increase in water fees revenue of $0.3 million, and an increase in grants of $0.3 million, offset by decreases in rent revenue and miscellaneous income totaling $0.1 million. There was a system-wide increase in consumption for water which in turn resulted in higher billable usage of approximately 176 million total gallons. Consumption increases were primarily driven by new customer usage as there were 115 new connections this year. The billing rates in the water division were changed slightly; an increase in the water charge of $0.17 per 1,000 gallons was implemented for in-city customers and $0.26 per 1,000 gallons for outside-city customers. Operating expenses in the water fund increased by $0.9 million, which was driven mostly by a $0.4 million increase in water treatment division expenses as well as a $0.4 million increase in depreciation expense; a result of an increase in completed water treatment plant projects to the assets at the beginning of the year. Water division expenses increased by $0.2 million because of increases in salaries 121 37

An offsetting decrease of $0.1 million was in the water engineering division, due to a decrease in contractual services as the water master plan was completed in the prior year. Finally, other contributors to the decrease in net position was the increase of nonoperating expenses of $0.4 million driven mostly by a large decrease in fair value of investments of $0.3 million and $0.15 million in losses on sales of assets. The wastewater utility fund realized a positive change in net position of approximately $1.5 million; an increase of $0.7 million from the prior year. Operating revenues increased by just under $0.1 million primarily due to an increase in: wastewater fees of $0.1 million, and ground water adjustment fees of $0.1 million offset by a decrease in Kent County sewer adjustment fees of $0.1 million. There was a system- wide increase in consumption for wastewater which in turn resulted in higher billable usage of approximately 45 million total gallons. Consumption increases were primarily driven by new customer usage as there were 53 new connections in the year. The billing rates in the wastewater division were changed slightly; an increase in the wastewater charge of $0.19 per 1,000 gallons was implemented for in- city customers and $0.30 per 1,000 gallons for outside-city customers. Operating expenses in the wastewater fund decreased from the prior year by $0.8 million. The driving factor to the decrease in operating expense was a $0.9 million reduction in Kent County wastewater treatment expense offset by increases in the wastewater and engineering divisions, as well as an increase in depreciation aggregating to $0.2 million. Finally, other contributors to the change in net position was the increase of transfers out of the fund by $0.02 million due to the increase in maintenance costs of the ERP system. The electric utility fund realized a negative change in net position of $4.7 million; a decrease of $11.3 million from the prior year. Operating revenues increased by $1.0 million attributed to increases in general service billings which includes billing customers for various installations of electric infrastructure for new housing developments, smaller one-house installations as well as business installations. More kwh was purchased for commercial customers which increased the revenue by $1.0 million, however this was almost completely offset by a reduction in kwh purchased by one of the City’s larger customers, reducing revenue by $1.0 million. Additionally, there was a reduction in grants revenue of $0.2 million also offset by increases in miscellaneous revenue of $0.2 million. Operating expenses in the Electric Fund increased by about $8.2 million. A significant $12.0 million increase in power supply and generation costs, coupled with increases in the following divisions: $0.2 million in transmission and distribution, $0.1 million in engineering, and small increases in Utility tax, System Operations, and Retiree Healthcare. The increases were partially offset by a decrease of a little less than $0.8 million in General Administration which was driven primarily by a reduction in capital outlay expense of $0.1 million offset by an increase in maintenance costs for the ERP system of $0.3 million. Finally, nonoperating expenses were $3.1 million higher than the prior year primarily due to increased distribution to customers of $0.1 million. Additionally, a reduction in fair value of investments of $2.9 million and an increase in transfers out to the General Fund of $1.0 million which further reduced the significant decrease in Operating income of $15.0 million which rounds out the negative change in net position of $4.8 million, which was $11.4 million less than the prior year’s positive change of $6.6 million. 122 38

Operating Revenues, Expenses and Transfers - Business-Type Activities $90.0 $81 $77 $80.0 Operating Revenues & Transfers Millions $70.0 $60.0 $50.0 Operating Expenses $40.0 & Transfers $30.0 $20.0 $7 $10 $8 $10.0 $6 $- Electric Revenue Fund Water Fund Wastewater Fund Financial Analysis of the City’s Funds Governmental Funds As noted earlier, the City uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with finance- related legal requirements. Government funds focus on expendable resources and near-term inflows and outflows of those resources. As such, fund balance is generally a good indicator of net resources available for spending at the end of the fiscal year, subject to any stated restrictions on its use. The combined fund balance of the City’s governmental funds as of June 30, 2022, was slightly over $27.6 million. This represented an increase of $8.1 million during the year. Approximately 45.5% of the combined fund balances, $12.6 million, constitutes unassigned fund balance, which is available to meet the City’s current and future needs. The remainder of fund balance is non-spendable, restricted, committed or assigned to indicate that it is not available for operational spending because it is constrained by legally enforceable contracts, other governmental agreements and legislation, City Council resolution, management, or it is not convertible to cash within a reasonable period of time. Further detail of fund balances is presented in the Notes to the Basic Financial Statements in Note 8. The General Fund is the primary operating fund of the City, accounting for such activities as general government, public safety, public works, library, recreation, planning, community and economic development, central services, and financial administration. The General Fund balance as of June 30, 2022, was $23.0 million. Revenue increased by $3.0 million, primarily due to increases in fines, licenses and permits, sanitation fees, miscellaneous services; property tax revenue, grants received and court of chancery fees. Other less significant increases were in police fines, library – general revenues, and library revenues – county reimbursement, which in aggregate exceeded the FY21 revenues by $0.2 million. The general fund revenue increases were partially offset by $0.3 million of decreases in Investment income when comparing to the prior year. 123 39

Paj 124

2022 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Financial Section – Part B – Management’s Discussion and Analysis Item 5. Total expenditures of $41.9 million reflect an increase from the prior year of $3.6 million, which was primarily driven by increases in expense of: $1.2 million in public safety and law enforcement, $1.2 million in employee pension, $0.1 in retiree health care appropriations, $0.7 million in public works, $0.1 million in streets and sanitation, $0.1 million in library services and less significant increases in recreational services, garage and stores, and insurance totaling less than $0.2 million collectively. The expense increases were offset by $0.2 million in decreases in general government and minor differences in all other functional areas round out the expense variance. Proprietary Funds The City’s proprietary funds provide the same type of information found in the government- wide financial statements, but in more detail. As of June 30, 2022, the water fund has a net position of $35.6 million, of which $6.3 million is unrestricted. The fund’s net position increased $1.1 million as explained on page 37. As of June 30, 2022, the wastewater fund had a net position of $35.3 million, of which $3.3 million is unrestricted. The wastewater fund’s net position increased $1.5 million during the year as explained on page 38. As of June 30, 2022, the electric revenue fund has a net position of $132.9 million, of which $21.6 million is unrestricted. This fund experienced a decrease in net position of $4.7 million during the year as explained on page 38. General Fund Budgetary Highlights During this fiscal year, the City Council amended the budget two times. The budget amendment ordinances were primarily for the following purposes: 1. To re-appropriate budget balances for ongoing capital projects, to amend the grant budgets and reserve accounts for the actual results from the prior fiscal year and to adjust program revenues and expenses based on actual amounts. 2. To amend revenue and expense accounts based on actual experience during fiscal year 2022. The General Fund financials in the Governmental Funds Balance Sheet (page 49) and Statement of Revenues, Expenditures and Changes in Fund Balances of Governmental Funds (page 51) include both the General Fund operating activities and the Governmental Capital Project Fund activities. The General Fund – Schedule of Revenues, Expenditures and Changes in Fund Balances – Budget & Actual is included in Part D – Required Supplementary Information (pages 127-128). The Combining Schedules – Combining General Fund Balance Sheet and Combining Schedule of Revenues, Expenditures and Changes in Fund Balances of the General Fund are included in Part E – Supplementary Information (pages 142-143). The Governmental Capital Projects Fund – Schedule of Revenues, Expenditures and Changes in Fund Balances-Budget and Actual is included in Part E – Supplementary Information (page 144). General Fund budgeted expenditures were revised to reflect an aggregate increase of $0.8 million. The 124 40

Paj 125

2022 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Financial Section – Part B – Management’s Discussion and Analysis Item 5. divisional expenditure increases were to Recreation, Life Safety, Police Extra-Duty, Streets, Council, City Manager, Finance, Public Works – Administration, Facilities Management, and Customer Services, collectively $0.5 million with minor increases in Inspections, Police, Public Works – Engineering, Human Resources and Mayor aggregating to less than $0.05 million. The operating divisions with a budgeted decrease were Stormwater and minor decreases in Planning and Procurement and Inventory. Additionally, there were decreases in non-divisional budgeted expenditures; Insurance and Transfer to Capital Project Fund. The non-divisional budgeted expenditures that increased are as follows: appropriations to the General Employee Pension and the Police Pension Funds, and a transfer to the Electric Fund. Actual revenues and other financing sources received were slightly above the final budgeted amounts in the General Fund by more than $1.2 million. The budgeted revenues that were revised to reflect an aggregate increase of $2.5 million are as follows: transfer taxes, court of chancery fees, miscellaneous charges, permits and other fees, miscellaneous state grant revenue, municipal street aid and interfund service receipts. The budgeted revenues that were revised to reflect a decrease are as follows: fines and police revenue, library revenue, recreation revenue, miscellaneous federal grant revenue, and civil traffic penalties which aggregate to $0.8 million. The net increase budgeted in revenues was $1.7 million. Capital Asset and Debt Administration At the end of the current fiscal year, the City’s governmental and proprietary funds had invested $58.3 million and $129.9 million, respectively, in a variety of capital assets and infrastructure, as reflected in the following schedule. The comparison from last year to this year exhibits a net decrease of $1.2 million for governmental activities and a net decrease of $1.0 million for the business-type activities. As the departments continue to review their assets within both the Governmental and Business-Type Activities, subsequent disposal of assets that were either replaced or disposed of in prior years, but were never removed from the asset records, or did not qualify as a Capital asset based on our current definitions, accounts for $0.48 million of the decrease in assets. For the Governmental Activities, the decrease in assets reported was in vehicles and equipment sold at auction or replaced $0.7 million, totaled vehicles and equipment $0.3 million, and traded in vehicles $0.07 million. The value of construction projects that remained open as of June 30, 2022, decreased by $1.5 million. The Business-Type Activities decreased by $1.0 million primarily because the City capitalized a number of Construction in Progress projects but did not start as many new projects due to the economic downturn created during the pandemic. Additional detailed data for all capital assets of the City is presented in the Notes to the Basic Financial Statements in Note 4. 125 41

2022 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Financial Section – Part B – Management’s Discussion and Analysis Item 5. Economic Factors and Next Year’s Budgets and Rates The City developed the fiscal year 2023 budget in accordance with the City’s financial policies ensuring all budgets are balanced and reserve requirements were adhered to. The City will receive over $8 million from the Federal government through the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA), to help buffer the negative impact of the coronavirus pandemic. These funds will be spent on various capital improvement projects in the Governmental, Water, and Wastewater funds. Additionally, the City was awarded $3 million from the State of Delaware Community Reinvestment Fund (CRF), which will also be used for capital improvement projects in the Governmental, Water, and Wastewater funds. The following changes over fiscal year 2022 were incorporated into the fiscal year 2023 budget. • The FY23 General Fund budget includes a property tax increase of $.02 per $100 of assessed value on the taxable properties, as well as an increase in the base rate for Sanitation, to support the City’s taxpayers and citizens beyond FY23. Additionally, a Stormwater utility fee will begin being imposed mid-year. These increases will assist the City in: o Mitigating the impact of inflation being the highest in 40 years at almost 9%, affecting the cost of supplies, construction, and services. o Overcoming the drastic rise in fuel costs over the last year; regular gasoline rose over 63%, while diesel fuel rose over 274% since last year. o Supply chain delays and shortages affecting not only the ability to complete projects in a timely manner, resulting in higher than budgeted costs, but also scheduled replacement of vehicles and equipment. This results in more frequent break downs, higher maintenance costs, and reduced overall efficiency. o Preparing for personnel and resources needed to accommodate for population growth that’s estimated to reach 40,000 people in the next couple of years. o Significant impacts of personnel related costs including fixed union contract increases, built-in step increases, and pension and other benefit cost increases. Additionally, a competitive job market is driving up salaries, hiring bonuses, and benefit offerings, in order to reduce employee turnover and attract qualified applicants. o Keeping up with the continuing technological advances, while phasing out older, and obsolete technologies as they are not supported by vendors. o Complying with several unfunded mandates such as the minimum wage increases, expanded Family Leave provisions, legislation requiring electric vehicle charging stations. • The budgets for the Water and Wastewater Funds include another year of rate increases. This is the third of a four-year plan to adjust rates. The additional revenues from the rate increase will assist with infrastructure improvements, will help to alleviate some of the impacts of the inflationary and supply chain issues noted above, and help to establish a prudent reserve over time. • Due to rapidly escalating wholesale energy costs, driven by record breaking natural gas prices, up more than 82%, rate surcharges, Power Cost Adjustments, and reduction of fund transfers, the Electric Fund has eliminated the PCA credit for its customers in the coming year. Additionally, a 30% electric rate surcharge has been added to customers’ bills. Purchase power costs are projected to rise from $50.1 million in FY22 to $91.5 million in FY23. • This budget includes minimal new personnel, in consideration of the financial challenges, but it allows for expansion where it’s needed most, and contraction wherever possible. The Tax Assessor’s office has been phased out, and remaining staff will merge with the Customer Service department, while Stormwater is adding a new Program Manager halfway through the year. The 127 43

Police Department will be adding 2 new dispatchers, and 2 new civilian employees to accommodate the population increase projected above. • Decommissioning of McKee Run Power Plant #3 continues. The City continues to closely monitor the local economy and its impact on growth and revenues. Revenue enhancements, rate increases, and potential cost reductions will continue to be reviewed in order to maintain the City’s financial policies.

2022 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Financial Section – Part C – Basic Financial Statements Item 5. City of Dover, Delaware Reconciliation of the Statement of Revenues, Expenditures and Changes in Fund Balances of Governmental Funds to the Statement of Activities For the Year Ended June 30, 2022 Amounts reported for governmental activities in the statement of activities (page 48) are different because: Net change in fund balances--total governmental funds (Page 51) $ 8,092,566 Governmental fund reports capital outlays as expenditures. However, in the statement of activities the cost of these assets is allocated over their estimated useful lives and reported as depreciation expense. This is the amount by which capital outlays exceeded depreciation in the current period. Capitalization of net capital asset expenditures including CIP $ 3,324,372 Loss on assets disposed of during the year (751,767) Current year depreciation (3,792,703) Leases 773 (1,219,325) Governmental funds report the repayment of principal of general long-term debt as an expenditure but the repayment reduces the liability in the statement of net position. 487,315 Revenues that are not available to pay for current period expenditures are not reported as revenues in the funds. (51,709) Governmental funds do not report GAAP related pension entries that record the Net Pension Liability. The following is the current year change in Net Pension Liability for the Governmental funds: 5,573,690 Changes in Deferred Inflows and Deferred Outflows related to pension entries reported in the Statement of Activities. (34,070) Decreases in operating expenses due to the decrease in OPEB expense for the amortization of deferred outflows and inflows of resources related to the net OPEB liability. 8,227,137 Under the modified accrual basis of accounting used in the governmental funds, expenditures are not recognized for the transactions that are not normally paid with expendable available financial resources. In the statement of activities, however, which is presented on the accrual basis, expenses and liabilities are reported regardless of when financial resources are available. In addition, assets are not recognized in governmental funds unless they represent current financial resources but are recognized in the statement of activities as they accrue. The following differences, therefore, occur between the statement of activities and the governmental funds. Decrease in compensated absences $ 53,571 Bond interest accrual (40,647) Increase in Net OPEB Liability (3,005,688) (2,992,764) An internal service fund is used by the City to charge the costs of workers' compensation insurance to individual funds. The change in net position of the internal service fund is transferred to the governmental funds and amounts attributable to internal charges are then allocated to functional expenditures. Net revenue is allocated back to respective functions and business type activities, as appropriate. 567,193 Change in net position of governmental activities (Page 48) $ 18,650,033 The notes to financial statements are an integral part of this statement. 136 52

2022 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Financial Section – Part C – Notes to the Basic Financial Statements Item 5. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2022 1. FINANCIAL REPORTING ENTITY A. The City of Dover, Delaware The City of Dover, Delaware (the City) was incorporated in 1829 and is a municipal corporation governed by an elected mayor and a nine-member council. The accompanying financial statements present the financial position and operating results for fiscal year ended June 30, 2022. B. Reporting Entity In evaluating how to define the reporting entity for financial reporting purposes, management has considered all potential component units. The decision to include a potential component unit was made by applying the criteria set forth in Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States of America (GAAP). GAAP defines the reporting entity as the primary government, and those component units for which the primary government is financially accountable. Financial accountability is defined as appointment of a voting majority of the component unit's board and either a) the ability to impose will by the primary government, or b) the possibility that the component unit will provide a financial benefit to or impose a financial burden on the primary government. Based upon this criterion, the following is a brief review of each potential component unit addressed in defining the government’s reporting entity. Included within the reporting entity: The City provides many services as follows - police protection, street maintenance, sanitation, storm water maintenance, recreation, library, community development, public improvements, planning, safety inspections, electric generation and distribution, water and wastewater services, legislative services, and general administration, including employee benefits. These functions are part of the City’s daily operations and therefore are not legally separate component units. Not included within the reporting entity: The City joined the State of Delaware Police Pension Plan for uniformed police officers employed by the City after September 1, 1982. The plan is completely managed by the State of Delaware and, therefore, is not included in the financial statements. The Robbins Hose Volunteer Fire Company, Downtown Dover Partnership, and the Capital School District are not included within the financial reporting entity because they do not meet the criteria for inclusion set forth by GAAP. 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The accounting policies of the City conform to generally accepted accounting principles as applicable to governments. A summary of the more significant policies follows: 61 145

Paj 146

2022 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Financial Section – Part C – Notes to the Basic Financial Statements Item 5. A. Basis of presentation Government-wide Statements: The statement of net position and the statement of activities include the financial activities of the overall government, except for fiduciary activities. Individual funds are not displayed but the statements distinguish governmental activities, generally funded by taxes and other City revenue, from business-type activities (BTAs), generally funded in whole or in part with fees charged to external users. Eliminations have been made for the doubling-up effect of certain internal activities, however, interfund services provided and used are not eliminated in the process of consolidation. The government-wide statement of activities presents a comparison between direct program expenses and program revenues for each function of the City’s governmental activities and for each of the City’s identifiable business-type activities. Direct expenses are those that are specifically associated with a program, function, or activity. Program revenues include a) charges paid by the recipients or beneficiaries of goods or services offered by the programs and b) grants and contributions that are restricted for meeting the operational or capital requirements of programs. Revenues that are not classified as program revenues, including all taxes, are presented as general revenues. The City allocates the costs of certain governmental services to the costs of business-type activities (indirect expense allocation). These costs include allocated amounts of city management, centralized budgetary formulation and oversight, accounting, financial reporting, payroll, fleet and building maintenance, procurement contracting and oversight, investing and cash management, personnel services, etc. The allocations are charged to the BTAs based on the use of these services. As a matter of policy, the costs of certain governmental functions are not allocated to the business-type activities such as tax assessor, planning and zoning, public safety, library and recreation and community services. Fund Financial Statements: The accounts of the City are organized based on funds, each of which is considered a separate accounting entity. The operations of each fund are accounted for with a separate set of self-balancing accounts that comprise its assets, liabilities, deferred inflows/outflows, fund equity, revenues and expenditures or expenses, as appropriate. Government resources are allocated to and accounted for in individual funds based upon the purposes for which they are to be spent and how spending activities are controlled. The fund financial statements provide information about the City’s funds, including fiduciary funds. The emphasis of fund financial statements is on major governmental and enterprise funds, each displayed in a separate column. All remaining governmental funds are aggregated and reported as non-major funds. The City reports the following major governmental fund: General Fund The General Fund is the general operating fund of the City. It is used to account for all financial resources except those required to be accounted for in another fund. 62 146

2022 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Financial Section – Part C – Notes to the Basic Financial Statements Item 5. The City reports the following major proprietary funds: Electric Revenue Fund This fund incorporates all transactions related to the transmission and distribution, as well as generation of electricity. The City has contracted with both The Energy Authority and North American Energy Services to manage the City’s power supply and generation assets. Water Fund This fund accounts for transactions related to water services. The City also holds lease agreements with cell phone companies for equipment placed on City water towers. Wastewater Fund This fund accounts for transactions related to wastewater services, including the payment of fees to Kent County for the treatment of sewage. The City reports the following non-major funds: Internal Service Fund The City has created one internal service fund to account for the activities related to self-insured Workers’ Compensation. Receipts are provided from contributions by the City’s general fund and it’s three enterprise funds. Expenses are related to payment of claims, premiums, and administration costs. Actuarial analyses are completed every three (3) years to ensure sufficient reserves for claims for the Workers’ Compensation Fund. The last analysis was done on June 30, 2019. Special Revenue Funds The City has eleven (11) Special Revenue Funds to account for proceeds of specific revenue sources that are restricted or committed to expenditure for specified purposes other than debt service or capital projects. Fiduciary Funds Fiduciary funds consist of trust and custodial funds and are used to report assets held by the City in a trustee or custodial capacity for other purposes. These funds are, therefore, not available to support City programs. The City is the trustee for the City’s two pension plans: the Police Pension Fund, and the Employee Pension Fund, as well as the Other Post-Employment Benefit Trust. The activities of these plans are accounted for in the Basic Financial Statements. Custodial Funds Custodial funds are used to account for assets held by the City as a custodian for individuals, private organizations, or other governments. The City has three (3) custodial funds. The City acts as the receiving and paying agent for the Fourth of July Celebration Committee, the Dover Days Celebration Committee, and Dover Strong. 63 147

2022 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Financial Section – Part C – Notes to the Basic Financial Statements Item 5. B. Basis of Accounting and Measurement Focus Basis of accounting refers to when revenues and expenditures or expenses are recognized in the accounts and reported in the financial statements. Basis of accounting relates to the timing of the measurements made, regardless of the measurement focus applied. All governmental funds are accounted for using the modified accrual basis of accounting and the current financial resources measurement focus. Their revenues are recognized when they become measurable and available as net current assets. Revenues that are susceptible to accrual include property taxes, grants, and billable service charges. All other revenues are accounted for when they are received. Property taxes are recognized in the fiscal period during which they are levied, provided they are “available;” meaning they are collected in the current period or are expected to be collected soon enough thereafter to satisfy liabilities in the current period. The City considers all revenues reported in the governmental funds to be available if the revenues are collected within sixty days after year- end, except for trash collection, which has a thirty-day collection period. Expenditures are generally recognized under the modified accrual basis of accounting when the related fund liability is incurred. The exception to this general rule is principal and interest on general long-term debt which is recognized when due. Also, claims and judgments and compensated absences are recognized as expenditures to the extent they have matured. General capital asset acquisitions are reported as expenditures in governmental funds. Proceeds of general long-term debt and acquisitions under capital leases are reported as other financing sources. The government-wide financial statements as well as all proprietary and fiduciary funds are accounted for using the accrual basis of accounting and the economic resources measurement focus. A reconciliation of the governmental fund financial statements prepared on the modified accrual basis of accounting to the government-wide financial statements prepared on the accrual basis of accounting is also provided on pages 50 & 52. The types of transactions included in program revenues in the government-wide statement of activities include charges for services, operating grants, and capital grants. Operating income reported in the proprietary fund financial statements includes revenue and expenses related to the continuing operations of the funds. Charges to customers for sales and services constitute the principal operating revenue for proprietary funds. All revenues not meeting this definition are reported as non-operating. Principal operating expenses are the costs of providing goods and services, which include purchased power, administrative expenses, and depreciation of capital assets. All revenues and expenses not meeting this definition are reported as non-operating revenues and expenses. The City generally first uses restricted assets for expenses incurred for which both restricted and unrestricted assets are available. The City may defer the use of restricted assets based on a review of the specific transaction. 64 148

2022 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Financial Section – Part C – Notes to the Basic Financial Statements Item 5. C. New Pronouncements The City has adopted the provisions of Governmental Accounting Standard Board (GASB) issued Statement No. 87 entitled Leases, Standard Implementation Guide No. 2019-3 Leases, Statement No. 91 entitled Conduit Debt Obligations, No. 92 entitled Omnibus 2021, Statement No. 93 entitled Replacement of Interbank Offered Rates, and Statement No. 97 entitled Certain Component Unit Criteria, and Accounting and Financial Reporting for Internal Revenue Code Section 457 Deferred Compensation Plans-an amendment of GASB Statements No.14 and No. 84, and a supersession of GASB Statement No. 32, and Implementation Guide No. 2019-1, Implementation Guidance Update- 2019. The adoption of these GASB statements did not have a material effect on the statements. As of June 30, 2022, GASB issued Statement No. 94 entitled Public-Private Partnerships and Availability Payment Arrangements and Statement No. 96 entitled Subscription-Based Information Technology Arrangements. The City has not yet completed the process of evaluating the impact of these pronouncements on its financial statements D. Capital Assets and Long-Term Liabilities Capital assets used in Governmental Fund type operations (general capital assets) are accounted for in the government-wide financial statements rather than in the funds. Public domain ("infrastructure") general capital assets consisting of certain improvements other than buildings, including roads, bridges, curbs and gutters, streets and sidewalks, drainage systems and lighting systems, are capitalized in the government-wide financial statements along with other general capital assets. The capitalization threshold for the City’s assets is $5,000. Personal computers and related hardware valued under $5,000 are manually controlled by the Information Technology Department. All capital assets are valued at historical cost and donated capital assets are shown at acquisition value based on the developers’ cost of the infrastructure. Depreciation has been provided on general capital assets and is shown in Note 4. Depreciation has been provided over the estimated useful lives using the straight-line method. Estimated useful lives are as follows: Buildings 20 – 50 years Infrastructure 20 – 50 years Vehicles 5 – 7 years Equipment, Furniture & Fixtures 5 – 15 years Long-term liabilities expected to be financed from governmental funds and the long-term estimated liabilities for compensated absences are accounted for in the government-wide financial statements, but not in the governmental funds. Depreciation of all exhaustible capital assets used by proprietary funds is charged as an expense against their operations. Accumulated depreciation is shown in Note 4 of this section. Depreciation in the proprietary funds has been provided over the estimated useful lives using the straight-line method. The estimated useful lives are presented below: 65 149

Building, Mains & Plant 25 – 90 years Improvements 15 – 20 years Equipment 5 – 15 years Vehicles 5 – 7 years Capital assets are maintained substantially and reported in accordance with the Uniform System of Accounts prescribed by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) for the Electric Fund and the National Association of Regulatory Utility Commissioners (NARUC) for the Water and Wastewater Fund. E. Budget Procedures Legally adopted budgets are prepared for the General Fund, Water Fund, Wastewater Fund, Electric Revenue Fund, the Internal Service Fund, and the following non-major special revenue funds: Police Federal Grants Fund, Police State Grants Fund, Library Grants Fund, Municipal Street Aid Fund, Community Development Block Grant Fund (Federal), State Department of Transportation Grants Fund (Community Transportation), Substance Abuse Prevention Program Fund, Electronic Red-Light Safety Program Fund, Lodging Tax Fund, ARPA Grant Fund, and the Realty Transfer Tax Fund. The General Governmental Capital Projects Fund provides for separate budgets to cover the planning and control of capital items for the governmental programs. The financial transactions of this fund are included in the financial statements of the General Fund. The Electric Improvement and Extension Fund, the Water Improvement and Extension Fund, and the Wastewater Improvement and Extension Fund are sections of each utility enterprise. These sections are required by bond resolutions. Separate budgets for these funds cover the planning and control of only the capital items of the utilities. The financial transactions of these funds are included in the financial statements of the Electric Revenue Fund, the Water Fund, and the Wastewater Fund. The City prepares the budget for the General Fund revenues on a basis consistent with the modified accrual basis. The expenditures are accounted for when the purchase orders are issued. The budget and actual schedule in the legal budget format (non-GAAP), adopted by the City for the General Fund, the City’s major governmental fund, is presented in the required supplementary information section of this report. Budgets for the Electric Revenue Fund, Water Fund, Wastewater Fund, and Internal Service Fund are prepared on an accrual basis. Budgets are prepared under the assumption that the principal redemption of long-term debt must be assumed by Enterprise Fund activity in conformity with the bond ordinance. The Combining General Fund Balance Sheet and Combining Statement of Revenues, Expenditures and Changes in Fund Balances of the General Fund as well as the budget and actual schedules of the other funds are also presented in the supplementary information section of this report because they are not required to be presented elsewhere. According to the City's procedures, the preceding year's ending net budgetary balances are considered as resources for the following year. The beginning balances become operating items of revenues in the budgets. Estimated ending budgetary balances provide the balancing amount for each budget. In accordance with the City’s financial policies, adopted by City Council, the General, 66 150

Paj 151

2022 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Financial Section – Part C – Notes to the Basic Financial Statements Item 5. Water, and Wastewater funds are required to maintain an 8% minimum ending budget balance and the Electric fund is required to maintain a 12% minimum. These percentages are expressed as a percentage of operating revenues, excluding the beginning budget balance. Unassigned fund balances as a percentage of current year operating revenues on a budgetary basis for the General Fund, Water Fund, Wastewater Fund, and Electric Fund are 25.3%, 29.4%, 29.8% and 26.6% respectively, and all are exceeding the financial policy maximum for each fund. Per the Financial policy, the overages for all funds will be addressed in the next year’s budget. The City Manager may approve transfers of savings from completed CIP items to non-completed CIP items. Any transfers that cause the item or project to exceed its original budget 10% or greater will be communicated to City Council and the Controller/Treasurer. The City Manager may approve intra- fund transfers (i.e., within the General Fund) of up to five percent per annum, except for line items associated with salary and benefits. Budget amendments exceeding that authorized above or that affect budget balances shall be referred to City Council. (Source: City of Dover Policy Manual, Budget Administration – Policy for Operating Departments, 2014). The following activities exceeded their budget: 1. Police Extra-Duty is over budget by $10,156, but is offset by Grant revenue. 2. The City Manager’s Office is over budget by $40,206 resulting from an overage in salaries due to attrition. 3. Debt Service exceeded the budget by $137 due to interest on the new HVAC loan, which was not budgeted. 4. Transfer to Cable Franchise Reserve of $13,421 was not budgeted. 5. Appropriation to Police Pension Fund - State Grant is over budget by $168,520 due to the receipt of State of Delaware funds exceeding the budgeted amount and then passed through to the Police Pension Fund as an expenditure. 6. Appropriation to cover Street Light expense was low by $26,038. In all cases, the increase was needed to meet operational requirements of the City. F. Major Transfers The Electric Revenue Fund, Water Fund, and Wastewater Fund annually transfer a budgeted portion of their revenues to the General Fund. Transfers are also made from the Realty Transfer Tax Fund, Municipal Street Aid Fund, Electronic Red-Light Safety Program (ERLSP) Fund and both Police Grant Funds (State & Federal) to the General Fund. The purpose of these transfers is to provide routine subsidies to the General Fund for operating functions, capital project expenditures and debt service requirements. The Lodging Tax receipts are only to be used for infrastructure, according to City Ordinance #2019-16. Therefore, amounts received in this fund are transferred to the General Governmental Capital Projects Fund. Several Special Revenue Funds represent a pass-through of revenues collected by the State of Delaware on behalf of the City or other State revenues provided for in Delaware Code. These receipts 67 151

Paj 152

2022 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Financial Section – Part C – Notes to the Basic Financial Statements Item 5. are subsequently transferred to the General Fund in support of public safety, City maintenance of State roads and other public services. Several transfers between the General Fund and the non-major governmental funds are netted in the government-wide financial statements. G. Inventory and Prepaid Items Both inventory and prepaid items are accounted for using the consumption method. Inventory are treated as operational expenditures at the time of use rather than at the time of purchase for both the governmental and proprietary funds. Prepaid items are reflective of insurance policies and commitments due on July 1 for the following fiscal year. The warehouse inventories, consisting mostly of parts and supplies, are maintained on a perpetual inventory basis. Inventories of all funds are valued at cost and net of reserves, utilizing a weighted moving average method of valuation. The City maintains inventory reserves to charge off any damaged or obsolete items. The Electric Revenue Fund maintains fuel inventory for the generating assets on a perpetual basis and utilizes the weighted average method of valuation. H. Cash and Investments The City's cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand, demand deposits and short-term investments with original maturities of three months or less from the acquisition date. Investments consist of notes and bonds issued by the United States Government and its agencies, corporate debt instruments, common stock, and open-end mutual funds. I. Accounts Receivable Allowances for uncollectible accounts are maintained and uncollectible accounts are charged off against these allowances. The authority to write off accounts is vested with the City Council. Current balances of allowances are as follows: General Fund $604,110 Water Fund 21,313 Wastewater Fund 19,925 Electric Revenue Fund 1,355,455 68 152

2022 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Financial Section – Part C – Notes to the Basic Financial Statements Item 5. J. Restricted Assets Certain assets are restricted because their use is limited by bond covenants, endowments, or other similar third-party restrictions. Restricted assets as of June 30, 2022, total $75,567,557 including cash and cash equivalents of $20,744,701 and $54,822,856 in investments. Of this amount, $5,211,771 is attributed to governmental activities and $70,355,786 is attributable to business-type activities. K. Bond Accounts/Issuance Costs The City recognizes issuance costs in governmental funds, as well as the proprietary funds, as a current period expense in accordance with GASB 65. All unamortized bond discounts and issuance costs held by the general fund and the proprietary funds have been expensed in prior years. L. Deferred Outflows/Inflows of Resources The statement of net position, in addition to reporting assets and liabilities, reports a separate section for deferred outflows / inflows of resources. Deferred outflows / inflows of resources represent either a consumption or acquisition of net position that applies to a future period(s) and will not be recognized as an outflow / inflow (expense / revenue) of resources until that period. The City’s deferred outflows / inflows of resources are reported on the government-wide statement of net position and proprietary funds statement of net position for pension and Other Post- Employment Benefits (OPEB). For purposes of measuring the OPEB and pension liability, deferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows of resources related to OPEB and pensions, and OPEB and pension expense, information about the fiduciary net position of the OPEB and pension plans and additions to/deductions from their fiduciary net position have been determined on the same basis as they are reported by the City of Dover’s OPEB Trust and pension systems. For this purpose, benefit payments (including refunds of employee contributions) are recognized when due and payable in accordance with the benefit terms. The OPEB and pension systems report investments at fair value. Deferred inflows of resources related to OPEB, and pensions are explained in Notes 15 and 17, respectively. The City also reports unavailable revenue as a deferred inflow of resources only in the governmental funds balance sheet, which arises only under a modified accrual basis of accounting that qualifies for reporting in this category. The governmental funds report unavailable revenues from property taxes, demolitions, general billings, grass cutting, police extra-duty, state grants, and lease activity. M. Fund Balances and Net Position Governmental fund balances are reported based on a hierarchy of constraints on the nature or specific purpose to which the funds can be spent. The classifications of fund balance are as follows: 69 153

Paj 154

2022 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Financial Section – Part C – Notes to the Basic Financial Statements Item 5. • The non-spendable fund balance classification includes amounts that cannot be spent either because they are in a non-spendable form or because they are legally or contractually required to be maintained intact. • The restricted fund balance classification includes amounts that can be spent only for specific purposes defined by the City Charter, the City Code, State or Federal laws, or externally imposed conditions by grantors or creditors. • The committed fund balance classification includes amounts that can be used only for specific purposes determined by the formal action by City Council through a motion or an adopted City Ordinance which is approved by a majority vote of City Council, the City’s highest level of decision- making authority. • The assigned fund balance classification includes amounts authorized and established by City Council. The City’s financial policies as adopted by City Council includes the purpose and description of all classes of fund balance. Modifications require City Council approval. • The unassigned fund balance classification includes amounts that have not met the criteria of the previously mentioned fund balance classifications. The unassigned fund balance is available for expenditures as they are incurred. The general fund is the only fund that reports a positive unassigned fund balance amount. The City considers restricted, committed, or assigned amounts to have been spent when a related expenditure is incurred. Proprietary funds report net position in three categories: 1) Net investment in capital assets 2) Restricted and 3) Unrestricted Fund balances and net position are further explained in Note 7. N. Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. O. Net Position Flow Assumption Sometimes the City will fund outlays for a specific purpose from both restricted (e.g., restricted bond or grant proceeds) and unrestricted resources. To calculate the amounts reported as restricted and unrestricted net position and fund balance in the government-wide, proprietary fund, and governmental fund financial statements, a flow assumption must be made about the order in which the resources are applied. It is the City’s policy to consider restricted net position to have been depleted before unrestricted net position is applied. 70 154

2022 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Financial Section – Part C – Notes to the Basic Financial Statements Item 5. 3. DEPOSITS AND INVESTMENTS A. Cash in Bank and Cash Equivalents Custodial credit risk – deposits. The City’s depository institutions collateralize the City’s deposits over and above those covered by the $250,000 FDIC Insurance limit with specific securities, which are ‘marked to market’ daily against the aggregate balances. The market value of the collateral is at a minimum of or equal to 102% of the amount of applicable deposits. Collateral consists solely of full faith and credit obligations of the United States Government or fixed rate obligations of agencies or instruments of the United States Government. As of June 30, 2022, the carrying amount of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents totaled $34,401,929, and the bank cash balances totaled $35,302,688. The carrying amount of restricted cash totaled $20,744,701 and the bank cash balances on restricted accounts totaled $20,731,054 and $2,814,970 of the bank balance was exposed to custodial credit risk because it was uninsured and uncollateralized. Fiduciary funds cash and cash equivalents carrying value of $11,337,549 included $11,337,562 of cash deposits. The restricted deposits are held by the City for bond-related transactions, special purpose operating and capital grants. B. Investments The City Council has adopted an investment policy which is reviewed every two years and updated as needed to meet best practices. The Pension Boards have adopted their own distinct investment policies to govern the Pension Trust funds because the objectives differ from those of the City. The City’s investments are segregated from the Pension Trust investments for clarity. As of June 30, 2022, the City had the following investments: Investments Held by Third Party Custodian The City categorizes its fair value measurements within the fair value hierarchy established by generally accepted accounting principles. The hierarchy is based on the valuation inputs used to measure the fair value of the asset. The City’s government wide investments are held in several different investment capacities from mutual funds and certificate of deposit with a significant investment in debt securities. • Level 1 – Valuations based on unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. • Level 2 – Valuations based on quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets or identical assets or liabilities in less active markets, such as dealer or broker markets; and • Level 3 – Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable, such as pricing models, discounted cash flow models and similar techniques not based on market, exchange, dealer, or broker-traded transactions. 71 155

Commercial Paper, Bankers’ Acceptances and Repurchase Agreements all have a much shorter investment period ranging from 90 days to 365 days. Short-term cash flow balances are invested up to one year. The portfolio’s weighted average maturity is 2.52 years. * For asset backed and Agency mortgage-backed securities, the maximum maturity shall be defined as the weighted average life (“WAL”). WAL is a convention that estimates the expected weighted amount of time, in years, for the principal amount of an issue to be fully paid. For Agency mortgage-backed securities, WAL shall be limited to 10 years, measured at the settlement date, provided by Bloomberg Financial Markets. As of June 30, 2022, Federal Agency mortgage- backed security WAL is 9.00. Credit risk: The City’s investment policy applies the prudent-person rule. Investments are made as a prudent person would be expected to act, with discretion and intelligence, to seek reasonable income, preserve capital and, in general, avoid speculative investments. As of June 30, 2022, the City’s fixed income and short-term investments carried the following S&P Global Credit Ratings as compared to the policy’s minimum ratings: 72 156

To avoid custodial credit risk, the City requires all investments held with a third-party custodian to be registered in the City’s name. Interest Rate Risk is the risk that changes in market interest rates will adversely affect the fair value of an investment. Generally, the longer the maturity of an investment, the greater the sensitivity of its fair value to changes in market interest rates. The Pension and OPEB Plans’ investment policies formally address interest rate risk. As of June 30, 2022, the Pension and OPEB plans had $31,913,612 in fixed income investments. The weighted average maturity for all its fixed income funds was 6.36 years. Credit Risk: The OPEB Plan’s investments are exposed to both market risk, the risk arising from changes in fair value, and credit risk, the risk of failure by another party to perform according to the terms of a contract. The Pension and OPEB Plan’s investment balances on June 30, 2022, consisted of open-ended mutual funds. Concentration of Credit Risk: Concentration of credit risk is the risk of loss attributable to the magnitude of an investment in a single issuer. The Pension and OPEB Plan’s investment policies do not formally 75 159

The Pension and OPEB Plans held no positions of five percent or more in securities of any single issuer on June 30, 2022. Foreign Currency Risk is the risk that changes in the exchange rate of investments will adversely affect the fair value of an investment. As of June 30, 2022, the Pension and OPEB Plans had no investments that were denominated in foreign currency. 76 160

2022 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Financial Section – Part C – Notes to the Basic Financial Statements Item 5. E. Certain Asset Retirement Obligation The City recognized an Asset Retirement Obligation (ARO) related to an electric generating facility. An ARO is a legally enforceable liability associated with the retirement of a tangible asset. The McKee Run Generating Station is an electric generating facility owned and operated by the City since 1972 and was shut down on May 31, 2021. A legal obligation exists for the City to perform future retirement activities for the decommissioning of the McKee Run Generating Station, as the site contains hazardous and other materials that require special handling, based upon Federal Regulations and the Delaware Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Control (DNREC). The City engaged a specialist to estimate the cost of decommissioning the station, and initially in fiscal year 2020 recognized a liability of $11,915,849. This year it has been reduced to $11,618,846 due to payment of invoices in the amount of $297,003. During the 2nd quarter of fiscal year 2022, the City signed a contract with Montrose Environmental as a decommissioning consultant. Since the contract execution, the consultant has worked with City of Dover and DNREC members in preparing the sampling and analysis plans, collection of samples of soil, groundwater, and the preparation of surveys for asbestos and other hazardous materials. Montrose continues to assist with the City’s participation in the Voluntary Cleanup Program (VCP) with DNREC. Based on the extended timeline for sampling analysis and the substantial comments and terms received from DNREC on the Conceptual Site Model (CSM) and the Sample and Analysis Plan (SAP), the Remedial Action Report and Workplan have been delayed. The anticipated request for proposals for demolition services will be released in fiscal year 2023. 7. RESTRICTED NET POSITION In the government-wide financial statements, the restricted net position of the governmental activities and business type activities are as follows: Governmental Activities Grants-capital projects This represents the State DOT grant $ 114,487 reported in the non-major special revenue funds. Grants-public safety These represent the Police grants, ERLSP 137,583 grant and Substance Abuse Prevention grant in the special revenue type funds. Other Purposes These represent all other funds reported in 4,423,112 the special revenue type, except the grants reserved for capital construction and public safety. Also included is the interest from an endowment from Mary Elizabeth Paton and the verizon reserve. Total Restricted Net Position $ 4,675,182 Business Type Activities Net restricted position for construction purposes - expendable Water and Wastewater Restrictions on investments $ 8,464,746 imposed by bond covenants Electric Restrictions on investments 61,891,040 imposed by bond covenants Total Restricted Net Position $ 70,355,786 88 172

2022 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Financial Section – Part C – Notes to the Basic Financial Statements Item 5. 8. FUND BALANCES & NET POSITION In the governmental fund financial statements, fund balances are reported based on a hierarchy of constraints on the specific purposes for which the funds can be spent. Non-spendable fund balances represent items that are not in spendable form and not expected to be converted to cash. This criterion also applies to the corpus of permanent funds, which would include the Mary Elizabeth Paton library endowment. Restricted fund balances represent amounts that have externally imposed restrictions by creditors, grantors, enabling legislation or laws and regulations of other governments. The fund balances of the City’s grant funds fall into this category, as well as a couple of accounts that have contractual restrictions imposed by a third party. Committed fund balances represent amounts that can be used only for specific purposes pursuant to constraints imposed by formal action of City Council through a motion or an adopted city ordinance. These amounts cannot be used for any other purpose unless the government removes or changes the specified use by taking the same type of action to which it previously committed the amount. Assigned fund balances represent amounts constrained by the City’s intent to be used for specific purposes. These amounts represent the City’s capital asset appropriations. The constraints placed on assigned fund balances are implemented through internal processes such as a budget ordinance or motion of City Council. Therefore, assigned fund balances do not have the same restrictive nature as a restricted fund balance. Unassigned fund balance is the residual amount that has not met the criteria for the previously mentioned classifications. The unassigned fund balance is available for expenditures as they are incurred. The General Fund is the only fund that reports a positive unassigned fund balance amount. However, in governmental funds other than the General Fund, if expenditures incurred for specific purposes exceed the amounts that are restricted, committed, or assigned to those purposes, it may be necessary to report a negative unassigned fund balance in that fund. 89 173

2022 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Financial Section – Part C – Notes to the Basic Financial Statements Item 5. 11.MATERIAL COMMITMENTS A. The City entered into a long-term Renewable Generation Unit Power Purchase Agreement with FPS Raceway Solar, LLC effective August 24, 2020. FPS Raceway Solar, LLC will supply certain energy, REC's and capacity generated by the electric generation facility to be located in Harrington, DE. Once the project is completed it will provide power to the City of Dover for a period of 25 years. B. The City is the guarantor on two loans in the original amounts of $635,300 & $757,900 for the Dover Fire Department: a separate entity from the City of Dover. The City also budgets financial contributions to assist the volunteer fire company with the acquisition of firefighting apparatus and maintenance of the building and other necessary equipment. The current fiscal year includes $83,347 in expenditures for Squad #1 a 2020 Pierce enforcer rescue engine, and $77,672 for Engine No. 5. C. The City entered a three-year management contract with The Energy Authority effective July 1, 2016, to provide a market-based approach for power supply management. The City has extended the contract through June 30, 2023. The Energy Authority manages energy purchases and utilizes the City’s generating assets to provide a level of rate stability and to mitigate the effects of volatility in the energy markets. D. The City entered a management contract with North American Energy Services (NAES) to operate and maintain the Van Sant plant of the electric utility in August 2022. NAES has been under contract with the City as the operator of the generating assets since May 2006. Previous contracts included the operation and maintenance of two generating stations, McKee Run and Van Sant. In May 2021 McKee Run was retired after which a request for proposals was circulated for the Operation and Maintenance of the Van Sant Plant only through 2027. The City has incorporated the budgets and financial activity of the generating asset into its procedures used for all other divisions of the electric utility. These procedures include a line-item budget and adherence to City policies. All personnel are employed by NAES, and personnel costs are billed to the City bi-weekly. Any capital improvements are included in the City’s capital improvement plan. The contract also provides for a monthly management fee and a performance incentive based on budget and plant performance. The cost estimate for the annual management fee and incentives totals $145,561 per year and is included in the plant operating budget. E. The City is the guarantor on two $1.3 million loans held by the Downtown Dover Partnership. The loans are secured by two parcels in the downtown business district that the Downtown Dover Partnership is marketing for its redevelopment initiative. The principal and interest on both loans is paid monthly from rental receipts the Partnership receives from its current tenants on the properties. F. There are no significant encumbered amounts where the resources have already been restricted. 12.FORWARD CONTRACTS Pursuant to the July 1, 2011 Energy Management Agreement between the City and The Energy Authority (TEA), the City has formed an Executive Risk Management Committee (ERMC). The ERMC has adopted a Governing Policy for Energy Commodity Risk Management (Policy) aimed at addressing the energy commodity risks and the Procedures and Controls Manual for Energy Commodity Risk Management (Procedures Manual). The Procedures Manual further describes the risk management philosophy under which TEA, the City’s designated provider of energy risk management services conducts its activities. The Procedures Manual authorizes TEA to enter into physical forward transactions which shall be governed by 92 176

Paj 177

2022 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Financial Section – Part C – Notes to the Basic Financial Statements Item 5. Edison Electric Institute (EEI), North American Energy Standards Board (NAESB), or similar agreements with counterparties approved by the City. These agreements will enable the City to hedge the forward price of purchased power, natural gas or fuel oil for delivery as needed to meet its load requirements. No speculative transactions for volumes in excess of forecasted power and fuel needs are permitted. TEA also provides advisory services to the City to determine the extent to which financial hedges would mitigate market and credit risk to the benefit of the City. These contracts meet the definition of a derivative instrument as defined by GASB Statement No. 53, Accounting and Reporting for Derivative Instruments (GASB 53). However, these contracts meet the normal purchases and sales exemption of GASB 53 as the City intends to use the physical commodity in its normal utility operations to supply energy to its customers. Accordingly, these contracts are not within the scope of GASB 53 and are not recorded on the City’s Statement of Net Position. Under the Procedures manual the City will not extend credit to any potential counterparty that has a credit rating below investment grade (defined as BBB as rated by S&P Global Ratings or Baa2 as rated by Moody’s Investors Service). Any counterparty that is unrated by either S&P or Moody’s must be approved by the ERMC prior to the execution of any trading activities. Credit risk is mitigated using collateral thresholds, credit limits, maximum nominal exposure and term limitations. A collateral threshold is the amount of unsecured credit granted to the counterparty. Unsecured credit exposure includes amounts owed by the counterparty, whether billed or not, and the marked-to-market differences in value of any collateral held. Any net exposure above the collateral threshold will require the posting of collateral by the counterparty. Collateral thresholds, term limitations and credit exposure limits are subject to maximums as established by the ERMC. 93 177

2022 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Financial Section – Part C – Notes to the Basic Financial Statements Item 5. 13.INSURANCE A. Health Insurance – State of Delaware The City participates in the State of Delaware Health Insurance Program. The State offers four health plan options. The administration of benefits is coordinated with Aetna and Highmark Delaware. Pre- determined premiums consisting of City and employee contributions are subsequently paid to the State of Delaware. B. Workers’ Compensation Fund – Self-Insurance On July 1, 1990, the City began self-insuring its Workers’ Compensation insurance. For this purpose, the City has established a separate fund. Claims are processed and administered by a third-party administrator. The City manages the revenue and expenditures in this fund and maintains all records. The City maintains a fund balance reserve to cover any claims incurred but not reported. AMI Risk Consultants completed an updated valuation in fiscal year 2019. As of June 30, 2022, $182,825 is reserved for open claims in this fund. An appropriate umbrella policy for the excess coverage has been purchased and is in effect as of June 30, 2022. Workers’ Compensation activity is recorded in the Workers’ Compensation Fund as follows: 2022 2021 Claims payable, beginning of year $ 288,538 $ 449,515 Claims incurred 274,337 96,278 Payment of claims (380,050) (257,255) Claims payable, end of year $ 182,825 $ 288,538 C. Other than Health or Workers’ Compensation Insurance The City purchases commercial insurance policies to cover risks not insured through self-insurance funds. The City has designated a contingency account to provide for uninsured losses (See Note 8). There have been no significant reductions or settlements exceeding coverage in the past five fiscal years. 14.COMPENSATED ABSENCES The City grants a specific number of vacation days with pay to its employees. Upon termination or retirement, an employee is paid for accumulated vacation days. The City also grants one paid sick day per month to all employees, except for employees covered by the International Brotherhood of Electric Workers (IBEW) contract. The IBEW employees are granted eleven sick days per year. The City of Dover follows a terminal leave policy which varies with each of the four labor unions, as well as the non-bargaining group. The maximum accumulated sick days paid upon retirement is 150 days for 95 179

Paj 180

2022 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Financial Section – Part C – Notes to the Basic Financial Statements Item 5. 25 years of service. No accrued sick leave is paid when an employee is terminated. In the government- wide and proprietary fund financial statements, unpaid compensated absences are recorded as a liability as the vested employees' benefits accrue, to the extent it is probable that the employee will be paid for comp time, sick and vacation benefits at retirement. In governmental funds, compensated absences are recorded as expenditures as payments become due; accordingly, no liability is recorded in the Governmental Funds statement. Typically, the General Fund has been used in prior years to liquidate the liability for compensated absences recorded in governmental activities. 15.OTHER POST-EMPLOYMENT BENEFITS Plan Description On May 11, 2009, the City of Dover Other Post-Employment Benefits Trust (OPEB Trust) was established pursuant to Section 115 of the Internal Revenue Code. Policy for and management of the OPEB benefits provided to retirees are the responsibility of the City of Dover. No stand-alone financial report is issued for the OPEB Trust. The City of Dover OPEB Plan is a post-retirement employee benefit program established for the purpose of funding retiree health care as provided for in Chapter 80, Article IV, Division 5 of the Code of Ordinances. The OPEB Plan is a single employer defined benefit plan. The OPEB Plan provides retirement medical coverage to pensioners and their eligible dependents in the City of Dover defined benefit and defined contribution pension plans as well as the State of Delaware’s Police defined benefit plan. Plan Administration Management of the plan investments are fully vested with the City of Dover OPEB Board as established in the City Code, which consists of five members - two Council members appointed by the Council President, the City Manager, the Controller/Treasurer, and the Human Resources Director. The City Manager, the Controller/Treasurer, and the Human Resources Director serve as ex-officio members. Milliman of Albany, New York provides asset management advisory and consulting services to the Board. The City purchases health insurance from the State of Delaware through a cooperative purchasing arrangement permitted by State Code. The State Office of Benefits provides the City with the medical insurance premiums by type of coverage and carrier during the budget cycle each year. The City also pays a five percent risk premium and contract administration fee of $2.70 for each contract in addition to the premium. Any premiums paid over or under the benefits paid out for City employees revert to the State. Membership of the plan consisted of the following on June 30, 2022: Retirees and beneficiaries receiving benefits 316 Terminated plan members entitled to but not yet receiving the benefits 17 Active plan members 330 Total 656 96 180

Transactions are recorded in the OPEB Trust for the payment of administrative and investment expenses and financed through investment earnings. City appropriations and other employer contributions for health care are recorded in the OPEB Trust. The OPEB Board of Trustees is responsible for the management of the trust investments. Contributions The contribution rates for the employer are established annually by the budgeting process of the City. Those rates include an employer contribution based on projected pay-as-you-go financing requirements as a percent of premiums, with an additional amount to prefund benefits, which is not actuarially determined. For the year ended June 30, 2022, the City’s average contribution rate was 19.9% of covered payroll of $20,249,554.

Actuarial Methods and Significant Assumptions The total OPEB liability was determined by an actuarial valuation as of June 30, 2022, with liabilities as of July 1, 2021, based on an actuarial date of July 1, 2021, projected to the June 30, 2022, measurement date on a “no loss / no gain” basis, using the following actuarial assumptions, applied to all periods included in the measurement, unless otherwise specified: Actuarial cost method Entry Age Normal Level % of Salary Amortization method Level Dollars Amortization period 26 years Asset valuation method Fair Market Value Actuarial assumptions: Investment rate of return 7.0% Discount rate 7.0% Inflation 2.5% per year included in payroll growth Healthcare cost trend rates Pre-65 Medical / Rx Initial rate of 7.5% decreasing by 0.5% annually to an ultimate rate of 4.5% Post-65 Medical / Rx Initial rate of 7.5% decreasing by 0.5% annually to an ultimate rate of 4.5% Mortality Total Dataset Headcount Weighted Mortality Table fully generational using scale MP-2020 a.

2022 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Financial Section – Part C – Notes to the Basic Financial Statements Item 5. Changes in Actuarial Assumptions or Methods The long term expected rate of return on OPEB plan investments was determined using a building block method in which best-estimate ranges of expected future real rates of return (expected returns, net of investment expense and inflation) are developed for each major asset class. These ranges are combined to produce the long-term expected rate of return by weighting the expected future real rates of return by the target asset allocation percentage and by adding expected inflation. Best estimates of arithmetic real rates of return for each major asset class included in the target asset allocation as of June 30, 2022, are summarized in the following table: OPEB Trust Long-Term Expected Rate of Return Long-Term Target Expected Real Asset Class Allocation* Rate of Return Cash & Short-Term Bond 9.00% 2.66% - 3.47% Fixed Income 22.00% 2.27% - 6.37% Equity 64.00% 7.29% - 11.11% Real Estate 5.00% 8.18% Long-Term Expected Rate of Return 7.00% *The best-estimate range for the long-term expected rate of return is determined by adding expected inflation to expected long-term real returns and reflecting expected volatility and correlation. The capital market assumptions are per Milliman's investment consulting practice. Discount Rate The discount rate used to measure the total OPEB liability was 7.0%. The projection of cash flows used to determine the discount rate assumed that City contributions will be made at rates equal to the actuarially determined contribution rates. Based on those assumptions, the OPEB plan’s fiduciary net position was projected to be available to make all projected future benefit payments of current plan members. Therefore, the long-term expected rate of return on OPEB plan investments was applied to all periods of projected benefit payments to determine the total OPEB liability. Sensitivity of the Net OPEB Liability to Changes in the Discount Rate The following presents the net OPEB liability as of June 30, 2022, calculated using the discount rate of 7.00%, as well as what the City’s net OPEB liability would be if it were calculated using a discount rate that is 1 percentage point lower (6.00%) or 1 percentage point higher (8.00%) than the current rate.

Employees are eligible to make contributions to the plan not to exceed the ceiling set by federal regulations. The City later added an alternative investment option for the Deferred Compensation Plan with Nationwide Retirement Solutions. The City offers a 457 Deferred Compensation Plan to employees as their pension plan in lieu of participation in the General Employee Pension Plan. At that time 41 employees opted out of the Defined Benefit Pension Plan and enrolled in the Deferred Compensation Plan. The ICMA 457 Deferred Compensation Plan has assets of $11,019,694 (market value) as of June 30, 2022, with 170 active employees contributing $637,287. The Nationwide plan has assets of $3,751,026 (market value) as of June 30, 2022, with 10 active employees contributing $67,329. Quarterly statements are mailed to each participant by the plan administrators. All administration fees are borne by the participants. All contributions are 100% vested upon election of the plan. Employees are eligible to withdraw or rollover to another plan upon separation of service. Withdrawals prior to age 59½ could be subject to penalty. Employees who participate in the defined benefit plan are also eligible for the 457 Deferred Compensation Plan. No matching employer contribution is made to the 457 Deferred Compensation Plan. As of June 30, 2022, there are 383 employees eligible to enroll in the 457 Deferred Compensation Plan. 105 189

All other employees, except for FOP members, must contribute 3% of pensionable wages into the 401a Plan. The City matches the 3% contribution into the 401a Plan. The City provides an additional dollar-for- dollar match into the 401a Plan if the employee contributes to their 457 Plan, up to a maximum of 3% for a total matching contribution not to exceed 6%. (See note 16 – Deferred Compensation Plan). The 401a Plan and 457 Plan contributions are calculated on base wages plus on-call pay and pay adjustments. All full-time regular employees are eligible, excluding law enforcement personnel. Personnel that have elected the defined contribution plan are not eligible for the defined benefit plan. All contributions are 100% vested upon election of the plan. To be eligible for benefit payments, the participant must meet the same eligibility requirements as the participants in the defined benefit plan. Employees are eligible to withdraw or rollover to another plan the employer and employee benefits upon separation of service. Withdrawals prior to age 59 ½ could be subject to penalty. As of June 30, 2022, there were 219 full-time employees enrolled in the 401a plan. The City contributed a total of $612,576 on wages of approximately $9.5 million. Employees contributed $446,278 to the 401a Money Purchase Plan. The market value of the 401a plan assets totaled $10,268,361 as of June 30, 2022. B. Defined Benefit Plans The City participates in three defined benefit pension plans: City of Dover Police Pension Plan (closed), City of Dover General Employee Pension Plan (closed), and State of Delaware County and Municipal Police Pension Plan. The City of Dover Police Pension Plan, a single employer defined benefit plan, covers all uniformed police officers hired prior to September 1, 1982. The City of Dover General Employee Pension Plan, a single employer defined benefit plan, covers all eligible full-time permanent employees, other than uniformed police officers. The State of Delaware County and Municipal Police Pension Plan, a multi- employer cost sharing defined benefit plan, covers all uniformed police officers hired on or after September 1, 1982. The City makes employer contributions to all three plans. The City holds on-behalf of the Pension Boards of Trustees, the assets of the two single employer defined benefit plans and, accordingly, is required to prepare pension trust fund financial statements using the accrual basis of accounting. Investments are reported at fair value based on quoted market prices. Receivables and payables represent year end accruals of short-term receipts or charges. The administration of plan assets for both the Police Pension Plan and the General Employee Pension Plan is conducted by the Pension Boards as described in the subsequent disclosures. 107 191

Plan member contributions are recognized in the period in which the contributions are due. Employer contributions to each plan are recognized when due, pursuant to formal commitments, to provide contributions. Benefits or refunds are recognized when due and payable in accordance with the terms of each plan. Investment management and consultant fees are paid from the Pension Trust Funds. All actuarial costs are paid from other City funds. City of Dover Police Pension Plan Plan Description This contributory pension plan began on January 1, 1970, under the authority of the City Code, Chapter 62, Article III, Pension Plan, Section 62-71 through 62-84. The contribution and funding requirements of the plan are established by the City and may be amended by the City Council. It is a closed plan. The last active employee retired June 29, 2006. An officer’s pension right is vested upon the completion of 15 years of continuous service. As of June 30, 2022, there are 43 retirees and beneficiaries receiving benefits. Fully vested employees who have completed 20 to 25 years of continuous service are entitled to annual benefits equal to 2.5% of their average earnings for each year of continuous service. The maximum benefit is 62.5% of average earnings. If a participant terminates after completing 15 years of service, the participant will be eligible for a deferred benefit commencing at age 60 with a benefit accrued at the date of termination. In place of this vesting, participants may elect to receive their accumulated contributions. Disability benefits are paid to a participant who is totally or partially disabled in the performance of his or her duties. The total duty-connected disability benefit is payable monthly and equal to 75% of the monthly rate of earning at the time of disability. The partial duty-connected disability benefit is the accrued benefit at the date of disability if not less than 50% of average earnings. Disability benefits cease if the participant recovers or dies. If the disabled participant reaches his normal retirement date, the benefit is reduced by one-third. Survivor’s benefits are payable monthly in an amount equal to 75% of the participant’s rate of earnings, for a duty related death. Survivor’s benefits are payable monthly in an amount not to exceed 25% of the participant’s rate of earnings, for a non-duty related death, if the participant has completed 10 years of service. If a retired participant dies, his or her spouse receives 50% of the benefit. All benefits under the plan, including survivor’s benefits, are increased 2% per annum. There have been no changes in benefits during the valuation period by City Council. Plan Administration Management of the plan investments are fully vested with the City of Dover Police Pension Board as established in the City Code, which consists of seven members – three elected by plan members, two Council members appointed by the Council President, the Chief of Police, and the City Manager. The City Controller/Treasurer serves as an ex-officio member. Milliman of Albany, New York provides asset management advisory and consulting services to the Board. Funding Policy The City intends to continue to fund the Actuarially Determined Contribution (ADC) as provided for in the actuarial valuation. The funding may be impacted by differences in actual experience and the actuarial 109 193

Paj 194

2022 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Financial Section – Part C – Notes to the Basic Financial Statements Item 5. assumptions. The employer contributions are considered by the actuaries in their determination of the ADC. The State contributes to the pension fund on behalf of the City based on 1) an allocation to the City based on a 0.25% surcharge on insurance policies issued in the state and the number of officers employed and 2) 75% matching grant for the annual cost of living increase (COLA) granted to police retirees on January 1 each year. For the fiscal year ending June 30, 2022, the State contributed $668,521. The ADC conforms to the entry age method as defined in GASB Statement No. 67/68. The City has interim valuations completed each year between the required biennial valuations to monitor the funding progress. The City’s actuary is Nyhart of Indianapolis, Indiana. The ADC is being amortized using a level dollar method. The amortization period is 3 years for the 2022 fiscal year and will decline by 1 each year until 1 year. Total contributions to the plan for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2022, were $1.3 million, which is 115% of the ADC. The ADC is based on a closed 10-year level dollar amortization of the Unfunded Actuarial Accrued Liability (UAAL). The Schedule of Changes in the Net Pension Liability, and a Schedule of Employer Contributions are presented as Required Supplementary Information (RSI) following the notes to the financial statements. Net Pension Liability The total pension liability was determined by an actuarial valuation as of July 1, 2022, with liabilities projected to the June 30, 2022, measurement date. As of June 30, 2022, the plan was 84.34% funded. The total pension liability for benefits was $17.6 million, and the fiduciary net position was $14.8 million, which resulted in a net pension liability (NPL) of $2.7 million for the primary government. There are no active officers; therefore, there is no covered payroll or ratio of the net pension liability to cover payroll. Key methods and assumptions used in calculating the total pension liability in the latest actuarial valuation, are presented below: Rate of return.

2022 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Financial Section – Part C – Notes to the Basic Financial Statements Item 5. City of Dover General Employee Pension Plan Plan Description The City of Dover General Employee Pension Plan started on July 1, 1967, under the authority of the City Council, Municipal Code, Chapter 2, Article IV, Division 7, General Employee Pension Plan, Sections 2-321 through 2-370, and was made contributory on July 1, 1983. Employees contribute 3.5% of gross salary, exclusive of unscheduled overtime. An employee’s pension right is vested upon completion of 10 years of continuous service. As of the valuation date, June 30, 2022, the General Employee Pension Plan is comprised of the following: Retired and beneficiaries currently receiving benefits 222 Active employees Fully Vested 70 Deferred vested 16 The percentage of covered payroll which employees contribute is stated in the City Code and is considered by the actuaries in their determination of the actuarial determined contribution for service cost. For the year ended June 30, 2022, gross payroll earnings of $6.0 million were reported to and covered by this plan. An employee hired before May 1, 1994 is eligible for normal retirement benefits under this plan, when they attain the age of 65 with 10 years of continuous service. This same employee is eligible for early retirement when he/she attains the age of 50 with 20 years of continuous service or has completed 25 years of service. Employees hired on or after May 1, 1994 who attained age 55 and whose attained age plus years of continuous service is equal to or greater than 80 are eligible for early-unreduced retirement benefits under this plan. The monthly benefits are 1/50 of the average actual monthly earnings multiplied by years and months of credited service upon retirement (highest 36 consecutive months in his/her final 10 years of continuous service). The monthly benefit shall not be less than $200 per month. Benefits are paid for the lifetime of the participant. Upon the death of the participant, 50% of the payments to which the participant was or would have been entitled shall be made to their eligible survivor. An employee may also take an early-reduced retirement on any date following the attainment of age 55 and the completion of 10 years of continuous service. However, the early retirement benefit is calculated in the same manner as the normal retirement benefit, at a reduced rate of one-half percent for each month computed from the date of early retirement to age 65 years. If an employee terminated before becoming vested in the plan, they are eligible to withdraw this total contribution with interest compounded annually. Survivor's benefits are payable to eligible survivors of a participant who dies after completing 10 years of continuous service. The amount of the death benefit is equal to 50% of the retirement benefit the participant would have received had he retired the day before he died. The benefit is calculated using the normal retirement benefit formula and service at date of termination. Effective September 29, 2009, the City Council voted to close the General Employees’ Pension plan to new hires. There have been no changes in benefits during the valuation period by City Council. 114 198

2022 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Financial Section – Part C – Notes to the Basic Financial Statements Item 5. Plan Administration Management of the plan investments are fully vested with the City of Dover Employees’ Pension Board as established in the City Code, which consists of three elected by plan members, two Council members appointed by the Council President, the City Controller/Treasurer, and the City Manager. Milliman of Albany, New York provides asset management advisory and consulting services to the Board. Funding Policy The City intends to fund the actuarial determined contributions (ADC) as provided for in the actuarial valuation. The City uses the percentage of payroll determined by the actuary for its contributions. The funding may be impacted by differences in actual experience and the actuarial assumptions. The employer contributions are considered by the actuaries in their determination of the actuarial determined contribution. The City makes payroll-based contributions for active members in the plan. The Actuarially Determined Contribution is based on a closed 15-year level dollar amortization of the Unfunded Actuarial Accrued Liability (UAAL). The Schedule of Changes in the Net Pension Liability, and a Schedule of Employer Contributions are presented as Required Supplementary Information (RSI) following the notes to the financial statements. Net Pension Liability The total pension liability was determined by an actuarial valuation as of June 30, 2022, with liabilities projected to the June 30, 2022 measurement date. As of June 30, 2022, the plan was 71.74% funded. The total pension liability for benefits was $67.0 million, and the fiduciary net position was $48.1 million, which resulted in a net pension liability (NPL) of $18.9 million for the primary government. The covered payroll (annual payroll of active employees covered by the plan) was $4.6 million and the ratio of the NPL to the covered payroll was 414.56%. Rate of return. For the year ended June 30, 2022, the annual money-weighted rate of return on investments, net of investment expense, was (15.35)%. The money-weighted rate of return expresses investment performance, net of investment expense, adjusted for the changing amounts invested. Key methods and assumptions used in calculating the total pension liability are presented in the following chart: Actuarial Methods and Significant Assumptions Valuation date June 30, 2022 Actuarial cost method Entry Age Method Amortization method Level Dollar Amortization period Closed; 15-year of the Unfunded AAL Asset valuation method Fair Market Value Actuarial Assumptions: Investment rate of return 6.5% Discount rate 6.5% Projected salary increases 3.0% Includes inflation at 2.5% 115 199

2022 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Financial Section – Part C – Notes to the Basic Financial Statements Item 5. Delaware Public Employee Retirement System - County and Municipal Police and Firefighters’ Pension Plan Plan Description and Contribution Information The City participates in the “County and Municipal Police and Firefighters’ Pension Plan” (the Plan) a cost sharing multiple-employer defined-benefit plan established in the Delaware code. The City’s uniformed police officers whose employment with the City started on or after September 1, 1982 under the authority of the City Code, Chapter 62, Article III, Pension Plan, Section 62-71 can participate in this plan. The General Assembly is responsible for setting benefits, contributions and amending plan provisions; administrative rules and regulations are adopted and maintained by the Board of Pension Trustees (the Board). The management of the Plan is the responsibility of the Board. The Board is comprised of five members appointed by the Governor and confirmed by the State Senate, plus two ex-officio members. The daily operation is the responsibility of the Office of Pensions. Although most of the assets of the plan are commingled with other Plans for investment purposes, the Plan’s assets may be used only for the payment of benefits to the members of the Plan in accordance with the terms of the Plan. The Plan’s service benefits calculation is 2.5% of final average monthly compensation multiplied by years of credited service up to 20 years, plus 3.5% of final average monthly compensation multiplied by years of service more than 20 years. For this plan, final average monthly compensation is the monthly average of the highest three consecutive years of compensation. Vesting is at five years of credited service. As of June 30, 2022, city membership in this plan is comprised of the following: Retired and beneficiaries currently receiving benefits 80 Active employees: Fully Vested 5 years 75 Non-Vested 34 The following are brief descriptions of the Plan. For a more complete description, please refer to the Delaware Public Employees’ Retirement System CAFR on the web at: https://open.omb.delaware.gov/FinancialReports/financials/FY21AnnualReport.pdf. Retirement Age 62 with 5 years of service; age plus credited service (but not less than 10 years) equals 75; or 20 years of credited service. Disability Benefits Duty – Total Disability – 75% of final average compensation plus 10% for each dependent not to exceed 25% for all dependents. Duty – Partial Disability – Calculated the same as Service Benefits, subject to minimum 50% of final average compensation. 119 203

2022 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Financial Section – Part C – Notes to the Basic Financial Statements Item 5. Non-Duty – Same as Service Benefits, total disability subject to a minimum 50% of final average monthly compensation plus 5% of each dependent not to exceed 20% for all dependents. Partial disability is subject to a minimum of 30% of final average monthly compensation. Survivor Benefits If employee is receiving a pension, then eligible survivor receives 50% of pension; if employee is active, eligible survivor receives 75% of pension the employee would have received at age 62. If the member is killed in the line of duty, the eligible survivor receives 75% of the member’s compensation. Contributions: Employer – Determined by Board of Pension Trustees. Employer contributions were 16.59%, 16.03%, and 16.84% of earnings for the Fiscal Year 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The City’s contributions to the plan for years ended June 30, 2022, 2021 and 2020 were $1,375,074, $1,328,868, and $1,317,526 respectively, and were equal to the required contributions for each year. Total eligible full-time wages covered by the State plan were $8.6 million this fiscal year. Member – 7% of compensation. Basis of Presentation The DPERS financial statements are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting, whereby expenses are recorded when the liability is incurred, revenues are recorded in the accounting period in which they are earned and become measurable, and investment purchases and sales are recorded as of the related trade date. Plan member contributions are recognized in the period in which contributions are due. Employer contributions are recognized when due and the employer has a legal requirement to provide contributions. Benefits and refunds are recognized when due and payable in accordance with the terms of the plan. For purposes of measuring the net pension liability, deferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows of resources related to pensions, and pension expense, information about the fiduciary net position of the DPERS Plan and additions to/deductions from DPERS’s fiduciary net position have been determined on the same basis as they are reported by DPERS. Employer Allocation Percentage Methodology The amounts assigned to each employer in the Schedule of Pension Amounts by Employer is each employer’s proportional share of the net pension liability, deferred outflows of resources, deferred inflows of resources, and pension expense (the Collective Pension Amounts) determined in accordance with Governmental Accounting Standards Board No. 68, Accounting and Financial Reporting for Pensions (GASB 68). Management has elected to allocate the employer’s proportionate shares of the collective pension amounts based on the percentage of actual employer contributions as documented in the Schedule of Employer Allocations. The City’s proportionate share percentage is 8.1574% for the current fiscal year, 8.5117% for the prior year and the change is a decrease of 0.3543%. Pension Liabilities, Pension Expense and Deferred Outflows of Resources and Deferred Inflows of Resources related to Pensions On June 30, 2022, the City reported a net pension asset of $11,224,982 for its proportionate share of the collective net pension asset. The net pension asset was measured as of June 30, 2020, and the total pension asset used to calculate the net pension asset was determined by an actuarial valuation as of June 30, 2020, with update procedures used to roll forward the pension liability to June 30, 2021. The City’s proportion of the net pension asset was based on the percentage of actual employer contributions. 120 204

2022 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Financial Section – Part C – Notes to the Basic Financial Statements Item 5. The proportionate share of the total pension liability for the June 30, 2021 measurement date was determined by an actuarial valuation as of June 30, 2020, with update procedures used to roll forward the total pension liability to June 30, 2021. These actuarial valuations used the following actuarial assumptions: Actuarial Assumptions Investment rate of return/Discount rate1 7.0% Projected salary increases1 2.5% + Merit Cost-of-living adjustments 0.0% (1) Inflation is included at 2.5%. The total pension liabilities are measured based on assumptions pertaining to the interest rates, inflation rates, and employee demographic behavior in future years. It is likely that future experience will not exactly conform to these assumptions. To the extent that actual experience deviates from these assumptions, the emerging liabilities may be higher or lower than anticipated. The more the experience deviates, the larger the impact on future financial statements. Mortality assumptions are based on the RP – 2014 tables with gender adjustments for healthy annuitants and disabled retirees and an adjusted version on MP-2015 mortality improvement scale on a fully generational basis. Projected benefit payments do not include the effects of projected ad hoc cost-of-living adjustments (ad hoc COLAs) as they are not substantively automatic. The primary considerations relevant to making this determination include the historical pattern of granting the changes and the consistency in the amounts of the changes. The long-term expected rate of return on pension plan investments was determined using a building-block method in which best-estimate ranges of expected future real rates of return (expected returns, net of investment expense and inflation) are developed for each major asset class. These ranges are combined to produce the long-term expected rate of return by weighting the expected future real rates of return by an asset allocation percentage, which is based on the nature and mix of current and expected plan investments, and by adding expected inflation. Best estimates of geometric real rates of return for each major asset class included in the Plan’s current and expected asset allocation are summarized in the following table: County and Municipal Police & Firefighter's Pension Plan Long-Term Expected Rate of Return Long-Term Expected Real Asset Rate of Return Allocation Asset class: Domestic equity 5.7% 32.3% International equity 5.7 18.1 Fixed income 2.0 20.6 Alternative investments 7.8 24.2 Cash and equivalents - 4.8 122 206

2022 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Financial Section – Part C – Notes to the Basic Financial Statements Item 5. Discount Rate The discount rate for all plans used to measure the total pension liability was 7.0%. The projection of cash flows used to determine the discount rate assumed that contributions from plan members will be made at the current contribution rates and that contributions from employers will be made at rates determined by the Board of Pension Trustees, actuarially determined. Based on those assumptions, the pension plans’ fiduciary net position was projected to be available to make all projected future benefit payments of current plan members. Therefore, the long-term expected rate of return on pension plan investments was applied to all periods of projected benefit payments to determine the total pension liability. Sensitivity Analysis of Net Pension Liability to Changes in the Discount Rate The following presents the City’s proportionate share of the net pension liability (asset) of the Plan, calculated using the discount rate of 7.0%, as well as what the Plans’ net pension liability (asset) would be if it were calculated using a discount rate that is one-percentage-point lower or one-percentage-point higher than the current rate (dollar values expressed in thousands): County and Municipal Police & Firefighter's Pension Plan (dollar amounts expressed in thousands) 1% Current 1% Decrease Discount Rate Increase 6.00% 7.00% 8.00% Proportionate share of the net pension liability (asset) $ (5,182) $ (11,225) $ (16,156) Separately issued financial statements for DPERS are available from the pension office at: McArdle Building, Suite 1 860 Silver Lake Blvd Dover, DE 19904 Or at the following web address: www.delawarepensions.com 123 207

2022 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the City of Dover, Delaware Financial Section – Part D – Required Supplementary Information Item 5. NOTES TO REQUIRED SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION GOVERNMENTAL BUDGETS Budgetary Basis of Accounting The City prepares its budget for the General Fund revenue on a modified accrual basis. The expenditures are accounted for when the purchase orders are issued. Encumbrances are established when purchase orders are issued and accounted for as a reservation of fund balance at year-end and are not on a modified accrual basis. The budget is amended in the subsequent year for the outstanding encumbrances of the prior year. The modified accrual basis of accounting is used for the fund financial statements. General Fund actual revenues exceeded the final budget by $1,226,460 with positive variances in library revenues, permits & other fees, police extra duty fees, recreation revenue, franchise fees, rent revenue – garrison farm, court of chancery fees, investment income, interfund service receipts, police grants fund, police pension grant, transfer tax, municipal street aid and ARPA grant funds. The sources of revenues with negative variances are fines and police revenue, Kent County book reimbursement, business licenses, miscellaneous charges, property taxes, sanitation fees, police extra duty fees, miscellaneous state grant revenue, and civil traffic penalties. Actual total expenditures were lower than budget by $1,940,121 due to lower than budgeted expense across almost all functions a result of personnel reductions through attrition and retirements. The net result is an increase of $3,166,581 to the General Fund ending fund balance. Budget Amendments During this fiscal year, the City Council amended the budget two times. The budget amendment ordinances were primarily for the following purposes: 1. To re-appropriate budget balances for ongoing capital projects, to amend the grant budgets and reserve accounts for the actual results from the prior fiscal year and to adjust program revenues and expenses based on actual amounts. 2. To amend revenue and expense accounts based on actual experience during fiscal year 2022. The differences for the year ended June 30, 2022 were as follows: Total revenues- budgetary basis $ 49,690,624 Total expenditures- budgetary basis 47,107,279 Net decrease in fund balance- budgetary basis 2,583,345 Perspective differences Transfer to/from Reserves (193,531) Leases 27,250 General Fund Subfund Expense Activity for the Capital Project Fund (2,497,205) Intrafund Transfers to the General Fund- Capital Projects Fund 2,129,100 General Fund Subfund Revenue Activity for the Capital Project Fund 2,078,468 Fair Value of Investments (446,407) Deferred Revenue Adjustment 181,233 Net increase in fund balance - GAAP Basis $ 3,862,253 222 138
