Item 1. CITY OF DOVER PLANNING COMMISSION JANUARY 17, 2023 The Meeting of the City of Dover Planning Commission was held on Tuesday, January 17, 2023 at 7:00 PM as an In-Person Meeting and also using the phone/videoconferencing system WebEx. The Meeting Session was conducted with Chair Mrs. Maucher presiding. Members present were Mr. Roach (virtual), Mrs. Denney, Mr. Hartman, Mr. Baldwin, Dr. Jones, Mrs. Welsh (virtual), Mrs. Malone (virtual), and Mrs. Maucher. Mr. Cooper was absent. Staff members present were Mrs. Mary Ellen Gray, Mrs. Dawn Melson-Williams, Mr. Julian Swierczek, Ms. Katherine Oehmke, Mr. Jason Lyon (virtual), and Mrs. Kristen Mullaney. Also present were Mr. Mark North (virtual) and Mr. Dave Heatwole. Speaking from the public was Ms. Linda Parkowski. APPROVAL OF AGENDA Mrs. Maucher stated that the Commission was provided with a Revised Agenda which adds under Old Business, a Request for Extension of Planning Commission approval for a Conditional Use Site Plan application C-21-01 Cassidy Commons at 101-1001 Cassidy Drive. Dr. Jones moved to approve the Revised Agenda as submitted, seconded by Mr. Baldwin and the motion was unanimously carried 8-0 with Mr. Cooper absent. APPROVAL OF MEETING MINUTES OF DECEMBER 19, 2022 Mrs. Welsh moved to approve the Planning Commission Meeting Minutes of December 19, 2022, seconded by Mrs. Denney and the motion was unanimously carried 8-0 with Mr. Cooper absent. COMMUNICATIONS & REPORTS Mrs. Gray provided an update on the regular City Council and various Committee meetings held on January 9 & 10, 2023. Mrs. Melson-Williams stated that the next Planning Commission regular meeting is scheduled for Tuesday, February 21, 2023 at 7:00PM in the City Hall Council Chambers. Mrs. Melson-Williams stated that as the Chair noted in the intro, we have a new member of the Planning Staff that has joined us, Ms. Katherine Oehmke. Mrs. Melson-Williams stated that included in the packet was a Summary of Applications for 2022. This is a first look at some of our year-end tallies that they do coming out of a calendar year-end. You can see for 2022 overall, our Office was processing with our various Boards and Commissions, a total of 42 applications. That seems slightly lower when you look at 2021 but from a Site Plan perspective, they were just as busy with applications this year. If you will remember since your approvals are granted for a two-year timeframe, we are still dealing with projects back from 2020 which may be trying to finalize their plan or may still be in the construction stage. They are certainly busy and they have had some big projects come in over that timeframe. There will be more detailed information about the various applications as part of our Department’s Annual Report. They will make sure that comes forward to the Commission. 1 5

Item 1. CITY OF DOVER PLANNING COMMISSION JANUARY 17, 2023 Mrs. Melson-Williams stated that included in the packet are two of the upcoming Zoom presentations done by the University of Delaware’s Institute for Public Administration. One of them is tomorrow morning which is “Planning 101: Planning Your Community’s Future” and then the next one is on February 8, 2023 at 10AM. With those items, if you wish to participate in them, please reach out to Planning Staff and they can get you registered. There is a registration fee which Planning Staff has some training money that can help fund that. She is not sure if it is too late to join tomorrow’s training but if anyone is interested, let them know and they will reach out to see if that can happen. As they set the rest of their calendar, Staff will certainly bring those opportunities to the Commission as well. OPENING REMARKS CONCERNING DEVELOPMENT APPLICATIONS Mrs. Melson-Williams presented the audience information on policies and procedures for the In- Person Meeting and Virtual Meeting using the WebEx system. OLD BUSINESS Requests for Extensions of Planning Commission Approval: C-21-01 Cassidy Commons at 101-1001 Cassidy Drive – Request for one year extension of Planning Commission Approval granted January 19, 2021 of a Conditional Use Site Plan for the construction of six (6) additional manufacturing/warehousing buildings (in addition to the four (4) already constructed) for a total of ten (10) 9,950 SF manufacturing/warehousing buildings on one parcel of land and other associated site improvements at 101-1001 Cassidy Drive. The property is 10 acres ± and is zoned M (Manufacturing Zone) and is subject to the AEOZ (Airport Environs Overlay Zone) APZ I and Noise Zones A and B. The property is located on the south side of Lafferty Lane west of Horsepond Road along a private drive known as Cassidy Drive. The owner of record was Cassidy Commons, LLC at time of original application; the current owner of record is Delmarva Land Holdings, LLC. Property Address: 101-1001 Cassidy Drive. Tax Parcel: ED05-077.00-01-28.04-000. Council District 2. This Application received Conditional Approval from the Planning Commission at their January 2021 Meeting and has not achieved Final Plan Approval. Representative: Mr. Mark North (virtual), Mrs. Melson-Williams stated that this is application C-21-01 for Cassidy Commons. It was a project to continue development of a multi-building warehouse complex out on Lafferty Lane. It originally went through a review process back in 2011 after which time they built four of the ten buildings that are proposed. That Plan, due to lack of continuation of construction, expired and they filed C-21-01 to basically complete the balance of the project development. Again, showing the remaining six buildings to bring it to a total of ten buildings on their plan. The Planning Commission granted conditional approval in January 2021. At this point, they have yet to fully complete the Check Print Review Process to get to Final Plan Approval. In that timeframe, there has also been an ownership change that happened about the time that it was coming back through Planning Commission in January 2021. Tonight, by letter dated January 9, 2023, they are requesting a one year extension of their approval for application C-21-01. 2 6

Item 1. CITY OF DOVER PLANNING COMMISSION JANUARY 17, 2023 Mr. North stated that there was a change of ownership about two years ago and it has taken a little bit of time to get a forward momentum back on the project. They plan to build the project exactly how it was proposed at the last application and they are very close to submitting the Check Print. It will probably be within the month. The new owner is supposed to proceed and build the project exactly as proposed previously. Mr. Hartman stated that during the meeting two years ago, there were some concerns expressed in the DAC Report about non-compliance issues. One was actually made by the Fire Marshal, he believes. Are there any concerns with non-compliance issues at this location that would impact or that should be considered by the Commissioners when considering this extension approval? Responding to Mr. Hartman, Mrs. Melson-Williams stated that there was some concerns at the time with this being a multiple building, multiple tenants within each of those buildings. There are a number of tenants that for one reason or another may have taken up tenancy there without proper Business Licensing in place. She thinks that those items have been resolved and certainly moving forward, it is a location that she believes our Code Enforcement Staff does try to keep an eye on. It does make a difference from a zoning perspective because of the zoning of this property and its proximity to the Air Force Base. They have to look very carefully at the types of tenants that seek to go there. She thinks that those previous items have been resolved, but it will certainly remain on our radar screen. Mr. Hartman questioned if there was a Performance Standard for this site. Responding to Mr. Hartman, Mrs. Melson-Williams stated yes, there is a Performance Standards that was put in place. That is something that they can continue to point to with them finalizing the plan as well as construction of new buildings and new tenants taking occupancy there. Mr. Hartman questioned if the Business License was the City’s main tool to use when assessing whether the Performance Standards are met. Responding to Mr. Hartman, Mrs. Melson-Williams stated that one of the tools for dealing with the Performance Standards starts with the Building Permit Application because there will be some type of occupancy identified at that point in time. The Business Licensing processing is another check for that and of course just regular property maintenance compliance checks. Are they storing things outside and things of that nature that they can look to deal with any kind of compliance questions and those Performance Standards measures. Mr. Hartman stated that he would just like to have faith that when they (Commissioners) approve these Performance Standards that there is actually follow up by the city to make sure that they are being followed, especially in areas like this as Dover Air Force Base is a critical part of the community. Mrs. Denney stated that she agrees. The close proximity to the Air Base, in her opinion, means that everything has to be really observed and they have to be doing things by the rules. She tends to think that happens anyway. When she looks at this she thinks to herself, the granting of the Certificate of Occupancy will mean that they have to comply with everything in order to get that Certificate of Occupancy. She doesn’t want to assume that; she wants to know that that is true. Responding to Mrs. Denney, Mrs. Melson-Williams stated that as part of the process for issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy, there are of course inspections by the Building Inspectors, the Fire 3 7

Item 1. CITY OF DOVER PLANNING COMMISSION JANUARY 17, 2023 Marshal’s Office, the Planning Office, and inspections from our Department of Water/Wastewater. They are all involved in order for a project to achieve a Certificate of Occupancy at the end of construction. Mrs. Denney moved to approve C-21-01 Cassidy Commons at 101-1001 Cassidy Drive for a one-year extension, seconded by Mr. Hartman and the motion was carried 8-0 by roll call vote with Mr. Cooper absent. Mrs. Denney voting yes; as indicated in the motion. Mr. Hartman voting yes; based on the review that was done two years ago for this application. Mr. Baldwin voting yes. Dr. Jones voting yes. Mrs. Welsh voting yes; for reasons stated. Mrs. Malone voting yes; for reasons stated. Mr. Roach voting yes; for reasons previously stated. Mrs. Maucher voting yes; for reasons stated. NEW APPLICATIONS S-23-01 East Carolina Supply Warehouse on Ridgely Street – Public Hearing and Review of a Site Development Plan and Minor Subdivision Plan for a property currently addressed as 631 Ridgely Street. The Plan proposes to subdivide the current parcel of 28.65 +/- acres into two new parcels. The proposed Parcel A is southernmost portion of the site and is to be 4.928 +/- acres (214,643 SF). The Residual Parcel is the northern portion of the site containing an existing warehouse building and would be 23.726 +/- acres (1,033,516 SF). The Plan is to permit construction on Parcel A of a 42,400 SF +/- warehouse and associated site improvements. The current property is zoned IPM (Industrial Park Manufacturing Zone). The property is located north of the terminus of Ridgely Street and at Clara Street to the west of the railroad. The owner of record is Clara Ridgley Project, LLC. Property Address: 631 Ridgely Street. Tax Parcel: ED- 05-076.08-01-01.00-000. Council District 4. Waiver Requests: Partial Elimination of Curbing, Reduction of Parking Requirement, and a Subdivision Waiver to Create Lot without Frontage on a Public Street. For Consideration: Performance Standards Review. Representative: Mr. Dave Heatwole, Siteworks Engineering Mr. Swierczek stated that this is an application for both a Site Development Plan and an associated Minor Subdivision Plan. The parcel of land is currently a little over 28.5 acres. The Minor Subdivision Plan is proposing a 23.7-acre parcel to the north that would be the bulk of the existing land that will also contain the existing warehouse building. The second parcel to be created would be to the south and that would be just under 5 acres. That southern parcel of land would then be proposed to contain a new warehouse building which is the Site Development Plan portion of this application and that would be 42,400 SF. With that, there is first a Subdivision Waiver that they will be submitting. The Ridgely Street’s public right-of-way does not extend this far north. There is sort of an existing easement on this property. They are asking for the Subdivision Waiver so that they can establish a cross access easement to allow access from the Ridgely Street to the south across this property to the larger parcel to the north. They have additionally submitted Waiver Requests for the partial elimination of the 6-inch upright curbing for stormwater management and they have also submitted a Waiver for the reduction in parking. Fifty-three parking spaces would be required, and they are asking for it to be reduced to twenty-seven. In their Waiver Request, they have noted that they expect about five employees to work at this facility at once as the main reason for their reduction in parking. Lastly, they did submit a Performance Standards Review Application due to the zoning of this property being 4 8

Item 1. CITY OF DOVER PLANNING COMMISSION JANUARY 17, 2023 IPM (Industrial Park Manufacturing Zone). The Performance Standards Review Application was required to ensure that no undesirable activities or chemicals or anything of that nature will be present onsite. Planning Staff finds that the literature that they submitted meets those requirements but that will have to be something that the Planning Commission takes a vote on. Mr. Heatwole stated that this is a project that they are really excited about. It’s a redevelopment project. They are putting a 42,000 SF warehouse in an existing area that is paved. They are going to take up the paving and put the warehouse in. They are going to see a reduction in paving by about 23% so that is going to help the drainage in the area. It is at a great location. Behind them is an existing mini-storage complex. There is a cell tower on their property and then they are in the IPM (Industrial Park Manufacturing Zone). The property to the south is also IPM (Industrial Park Manufacturing Zone). There is already over 1 million square feet of warehousing on the parent parcel; so, they are just going to do a small portion. They are doing 42,000 SF which is quite a bit less than the 1 million that is already present. There is water and sewer on the easement and there is also electric and gas. So, they don’t have to go far for utilities. It is a great spot for development, and he feels like it is going to pull development Downtown which is a good thing. One of the challenges that they face is with curbing. They are asking for the Waiver to create a new lot off of an easement and then they are asking for also a waiver with the curbing. They are planning to put curbing on the front of the building on the front side. That is easier for them to do because they can super-elevate that road and maintain existing drainage patterns, but on the back side is where they are asking to not put in the curbing. They have just over two feet of fall that they have to deal with across the site. When you put in a curb, you kind of concentrate the flows and they want to kind of fan out the water. They are going to push it more into the grass so that as it goes to the property to the south, it is not creating a concentrated channel going onto the property which would impact that. Mrs. Maucher asked if he wanted to address the request for the Waiver to create a lot without frontage on a public street. Responding to Mrs. Maucher, Mr. Heatwole stated that right now to the south, which is the right side of the plan, Ridgely Street is 408 feet to the right. There is an easement that runs across the lot to the south that provides access. This is existing so trucks use this easement to access this existing warehouse. If you go to Sheet RP-2, see the hashed area or darker area that goes from Clara Street Extension and wraps all the way around. What they are purposing is a cross access easement so both parcels can continue to use both Ridgely Street and Clara Street Extension with essentially no change to the parcels. Mrs. Maucher asked if those easements were in place. Responding to Mrs. Maucher, Mr. Heatwole stated that they will be in place once they record the Subdivision. Mr. Hartman stated that he thinks it is well presented and the proposal will probably improve the area, but he does have a couple of questions about Ridgely Street and the extension. Will that easement be used for truck traffic? Responding to Mr. Hartman, Mr. Heatwole stated that there will be some truck traffic from Ridgley Street, but his understanding is that with the way that this site is functioning now is that most of the truck traffic comes from the Clara Street Extension. Mr. Hartman asked if there are no maintenance plans in affect for maintaining the Ridgely Street easement. Responding to Mr. Hartman, Mr. Heatwole stated that to his knowledge there is no 5 9

Item 1. CITY OF DOVER PLANNING COMMISSION JANUARY 17, 2023 easement maintenance agreement in place. He thinks that one of the things that they have talked about in this process is that they need to get one of those agreements in place. The two properties to the south are undeveloped so that if they develop in some time, they will need to become a party to that easement maintenance agreement as well. Mr. Hartman stated that the next concern that he has is the frontage requirement from the Ordinance. We are required to submit to the City Council a recommendation whether or not waiving this frontage requirement is something that is necessary. He hasn’t seen anything in the application that he can refer to or talk to City Council about why this is needed. There are specific requirements that they ask for would cause extraordinary and unnecessary hardship. Or it wouldn’t be detrimental to public health, safety and general welfare. This is all in the DAC Report, but he doesn’t see a response from the applicant. Responding to Mr. Hartman, Mr. Heatwole stated that the property has limited frontage. They just have a little bit of frontage on Clara Street Extension. They actually don’t own frontage on Ridgely Street. So the hardship is that the property has a lack of frontage; yet, there is more space on the property to develop. Mr. Hartman stated that he just doesn’t see that in writing where City Council can look at it and say this is a fact, this is in writing and is something that we can vote on. Can that be pointed out somewhere? Responding to Mr. Hartman, Mr. Heatwole stated that this plan that is up right now would show that. It identifies that they are 408 feet from Ridgely Street. They are showing Clara Street Extension. and there is about 30 feet of frontage on Clara Street Extension. This plan shows the hardship for the parcel. Mr. Hartman asked if Planning Staff feels that the applicant has met the requirement for the Commission to consider this waiver of the lot frontage. Responding to Mr. Hartman, Mrs. Melson-Williams stated that as part of the DAC Report on Page 11 under the “Recommendations Suggested as Conditions of Approval,” Item #3 is the Planning Staff’s response to this request for a Subdivision Waiver for the requirement for a lot to have frontage on a public street. They find that this property is unique in nature as Mr. Heatwole noted. It has very limited frontage even on Clara Street Extension. On this image it is about 30 feet. There is no other street network that it is adjacent to. It is certainly adjacent to a railroad corridor but that doesn’t count as a public street. They feel that the current access easement that basically continues from the terminus of the right of way of Ridgely Street across adjacent property to this property in this southern area which has been in place for a number of years is likely from the time of development of the “parent building” on the site. That is in place, so it clearly provides access to a public street. There is that other existing access to the Clara Street Extension. This property is like the last property on the end of the street. They are going to do a cross access easement to ensure that even this smaller subdivided parcel continues to be able to cross the large “parent parcel” to be able to get to that public street. This is one of those cases where she thinks that the shape of the property and its relationship to this existing street network is one of reasons why waivers such as this are built into our Code. There is really no other street network for them to take access from or have frontage on because there are other properties that are between them and those street networks. Mr. Hartman stated that Planning Staff agrees that the waiver to create a lot without frontage should be approved. Responding to Mr. Hartman, Mrs. Melson-Williams stated yes. 6 10

Item 1. CITY OF DOVER PLANNING COMMISSION JANUARY 17, 2023 Mrs. Denney asked if ingress/egress is totally on Ridgely Street. Responding to Mrs. Denney, Mr. Heatwole stated that they envision that most of the truck traffic will come from Clara Street Extension. and Mr. Mast who was here tonight could explain that. They anticipate most of the truck traffic coming from that direction because it comes from that direction for the existing warehouse now, not entirely but mostly. Then they would expect employees to use Ridgely Street because it’s easier for cars on that street. He understands that that has more to do with the Route 8 intersection than it does with Ridgely Street itself. In laying out the site, they provided a means for trucks to come in, deliver materials to the site, and then kind of circle back and go around through the easement and back to the Clara Street Extension. The idea was to give vehicles the option in whatever direction they want to go. They feel that the traffic works now for an existing 1 million square foot warehouse; so with adding 40,000 SF, they are confident that it is also going to work. Mrs. Denney stated that primary ingress/egress at this point is the Clara Street Extension. There could be some options with employees and stuff but the biggest thought process lends itself to the trucks. Of course there is a school there but realizing it is separated by the railroad tracks so she is not as concerned about that. She travels that way and goes over in that direction every morning because she drops her grandkids off at school. But she also notes that within that area because of the public school systems there, we do have a lot of youth who are walking and coming and going in that area. She would say that she generally sees them mostly before and after school but kids and tractor trailers, to her, sometimes don’t mix. She just kind of wants to feel assured that that will be the primary ingress/egress for the tractor trailers. Responding to Mrs. Denney, Mr. Heatwole stated yes, that is his understanding. They are going to set the building to kind of front on Ridgely Street (easement). Dr. Jones asked if they are at a point where there may be concerns or any comments from residents. Responding to Dr. Jones, Mrs. Maucher stated that she is getting ready to open the public hearing. Mrs. Maucher opened the public hearing. Ms. Linda Parkowski – Kent Economic Partnership Ms. Parkowski stated that they have been involved with this project. She strongly encourages the Planning Commission to approve. Like everyone said, this is unique property and they don’t have a whole lot of options for where to place it. But this is needed. Warehousing in Dover is needed and this is an industrial area over on Ridgely Street. They support this project. Mrs. Melson-Williams stated that she did want to note that the applicant brought with him this evening, an updated Site Plan diagram that relocated a series of the parking spaces from the west side of the building (which is at the bottom of the page) over to the east side of the building. That would kind of cluster the parking for vehicles on one side of the building and that side of the building being the one closest to the building entry for employees and the public. It was also placed on the desks of the Commissioners this evening. Mrs. Maucher closed the public hearing. 7 11

Item 1. CITY OF DOVER PLANNING COMMISSION JANUARY 17, 2023 Mr. Hartman moved to approve S-23-01 East Carolina Supply Warehouse on Ridgely Street for the Site Development Plan and the Minor Subdivision Plan for a property currently addressed as 631 Ridgely Street, including the Performance Standards Review, the reduction of parking requirements, and the Subdivision Waiver to create a lot without frontage on a public street. He bases the motion to approve the waiver for the lot frontage based on the recommendations of Planning Staff in the DAC Report, Section 11 Subparagraph 3 and comments made during this meeting, seconded by Mrs. Welsh. Mr. Heatwole stated that they have one more waiver for the partial elimination of upright curbing. Responding to Mr. Heatwole, Mrs. Maucher stated that is a function that Staff can grant without Planning Commission approval. Mrs. Melson-Williams stated that the curbing waiver is something that Planning Staff can recommend and take action on. They have done that as part of the Report. The motion was carried 8-0 by roll call vote with Mr. Cooper absent. Mr. Hartman voting yes; based on the DAC Report and the questions and answers revealed tonight. Mr. Baldwin voting yes; based on the previous discussions and Staff recommendation. Dr. Jones voting yes; based upon the previous comments. Mrs. Welsh voting yes; she thinks that it is a great use of the property and a particularly good solution for the frontage on a public street. Mrs. Malone voting yes; for the reasons stated. Mr. Roach voting yes. Mrs. Denney voting yes; for reasons stated as the motion was made. The DAC Report is certainly important to her and she thinks that the waivers, especially the frontage issues are just necessary because to her, they are exceptional practical difficulties because of the lay of the land and the location of the lot. She agrees with comments from Mrs. Malone (Mrs. Welsh) that this is a good use for this particular piece of property. Mrs. Maucher voting yes; based on the DAC recommendations and Planning Staff recommendations. NEW BUSINESS Meeting adjourned at 7:58 PM. Sincerely, Kristen Mullaney Secretary 8 12

Item 4. S-23-01 NeighborGood Offices at 223 West Division Street DAC Report of February 8, 2023 Page 2 City of CITY OF DOVER Dover Planning DEVELOPMENT ADVISORY COMMITTEE Office APPLICATION REVIEW COMMENTARY D.A.C. MEETING DATE: February 8, 2023 APPLICATION: NeighborGood Partners Division Street Office at 223 West Division Street FILE #: S-23-03 REVIEWING AGENCY: City of Dover Planning CONTACT PERSON: Julian Swierczek AICP, Planner II PHONE #: (302) 736-7196 I. PLAN SUMMARY This Application is for review of a Site Development Plan Application to permit construction of a two-story 6,226 SF office building and associated site improvements. The property is zoned C- 1A (Limited Commercial Zone). The property is located on the north side of W. Division Street, east of N. New Street. The owner of record is NCALL, Inc. Property Address: 223 W. Division Street. Tax Parcel: ED-05-076.08-05-29.00-000. Council District 4. Previous Applications Application #V-19-04 had sought two variances for this site and was approved by the Board of Adjustment at their April 2019 meeting. Both variances were from the requirements of Article 4 §4.14 of the Zoning Ordinance pertaining to the bulk standards in the C-1A (Limited Commercial Zone) in order to allow for an increase in both the maximum building height in feet and number of stories. Site Development Plan Application and associated Lot Consolidation Plan Application S-19-13 had then come before the Planning Commission at their July 15, 2019 meeting. This previous iteration of the Site Development Plan had utilized the approved Variances and proposed a three- story, 7,671 SF Office Building along with two Waiver Requests. The first was for a Tree Mitigation Plan in order to provide the required tree plantings at two other addresses that NCALL had proposed to develop; and the second was for the elimination of Upright-Curbing. Both Waivers were approved in conjunction with the conditional approval of the Site Development Plan Application and associated Lot Consolidation Plan. This Plan then came before the Planning Commission again in November of 2020 to advise of revised project design with the building reduced to two stories. The Plan was granted a one-year extension of Planning Commission Approval at their May 2021 meeting, which extended the Planning Commission approval through to July 31, 2022. Final Plan Approval was issued in a Letter dated May 27, 2022, and the Lot Consolidation Plan was recorded in June of 2022. However, no permits were filed by July 31, 2022 and Planning Commission Approval therefore expired. 22

Item 4. S-23-01 NeighborGood Offices at 223 West Division Street DAC Report of February 8, 2023 Page 3 II. PROJECT DESCRIPTION This is a Site Development Plan Application to develop the property currently addressed as 223 West Division Street. The Lot Consolidation which was associated with the previous Application associated with this Site was Finalized and Recorded in June of 2022 consolidating the properties addressed as 223 and 225 West Division Street. The current property addressed as 223 West Division consists of 5,120 SF +/-. The Site Development Plan shows one main structure to be utilized as an office building for NeighborGood Partners, along with associated site improvements. The property is located on the northeast corner of West Division Street and North New Street. Along West Division Street to both the east and west are properties also zoned C-1A, containing a mix of uses, primarily residential uses including one-family residences which are a permitted use in the zone, as well as a church which is a nonconforming use in the zone. The properties to the north along North New Street are zoned RG-1 (General Residence Zone) and contain primarily one-family residences. The applicant has noted two waiver requests on their plans. The first is a Waiver Request from the Zoning Ordinance, Article 5 §16.62 for the tree density requirements, asking that they instead be permitted to plant the required two (2) trees on other properties of theirs in the City. The second Waiver Request asked for by the applicant is from the requirements of Article 6 §3.6(b) requiring that all permanent parking areas shall be enclosed with upright concrete curbing at least six inches in height. The applicant has stated that this waiver is needed to better facilitate stormwater management. Bollards are proposed in the parking spaces adjacent to the building. III. ZONING REVIEW C-1A (Limited Commercial Zone) and Lot & Bulk Standards The development site is zoned C-1A (Limited Commercial Zone) and is subject to the regulations of Zoning Ordinance, Article 3 §12 and Article 4 §4.14. Business, professional, and governmental offices are listed as a permitted use in the C-1A zoning district. Article 7 §1.3 permits the reconstruction or enlargement of a building to utilize its legal non- conforming bulk standards so long as said reconstruction or enlargement does not increase the degree of or create any new nonconformity. It is with the established legal non-conforming bulk standards of the site that the Applicant is proposing the placement of this new building. It is noted that the Variances which were approved in conjunction with the previous Site Development Plan for this property (S-19-13) included increasing the maximum permitted number of stories from two (2) to three (3), and the maximum permitted building height from 30 feet to 34 feet. As this previous Plan has expired without these approved Variances having been utilized, the Variances have also expired, and this increased Building Height would no longer be permitted. It is noted that the previous iteration of this project had initially been presented to the Planning Commission as 3-stories and 34 feet in height. As such, the Project was required to go before the Board of Adjustment where Variances to establish an increase in both the maximum building height permitted in the C-1A Zone in feet (30 ft. to 34 ft); as well as the maximum number of stories permitted in the C-1A Zone to from two (2) stories to three (3) stories. The Board of 23

Item 4. S-23-01 NeighborGood Offices at 223 West Division Street DAC Report of February 8, 2023 Page 4 Adjustment approved both Area Variance Requests at their April 2019 meeting. The Design had however been revised, and the Variance approvals have since expired. The standards for C-1A are provided below: Table 1: Required and Proposed Bulk Standards C-1A (Limited Commercial Applicant's Project Zone) Lot area - 5,120 SF Lot width (ft.) 25 64 Lot depth (ft.) - 80 Front yard (ft.) 25 4.6/ 3.8 None but 5 ft. minimum if Side yard (ft.) 4.0 provided Rear yard (ft.) 15 19 Side or rear yards which adjoin a 15 19 Residence zone (ft.) Off-street parking spaces Per 300 sq. ft. floor area or - 3 Per employee (whichever is greater) - 3 Maximum permitted: Building height Stories 2 2 Feet 30 *34 Floor area ratio 1.5 0.610 *34 feet is the noted building height in the Plan submitted which does not comply with the Bulk Standards of the C-1A Zone. The Applicant has however verbally indicated that the building is to be 28.5 feet in height and the Plans will be revised accordingly. IV. PARKING SUMMARY The C-1A zone (as noted above in Table 1) does not have a parking requirement, nor does the Zoning Ordinance contain any added parking requirements for the use of an Office. The applicant is however proposing to provide three (3) parking spaces at the rear of the building, to be accessed directly off the rear alley. Bicycle Parking Bicycle parking is required at a ratio of one (1) space for every twenty (20) parking spaces. Based on the proposed three (3) regular spaces, one (1) bicycle parking space must be provided. The plan indicates that bicycle parking rack with three (3) spaces is to be provided. 24

Item 4. S-23-01 NeighborGood Offices at 223 West Division Street DAC Report of February 8, 2023 Page 5 V. SITE CONSIDERATIONS Site Entrance Vehicular access to the site will only be possible at the rear of the building where the applicant is proposing three (3) new parking spaces which are directly accessed via the rear unnamed alley. No new drive aisles on the site or entrances off West Division Street or North New Street are proposed. Pedestrian Considerations The site is currently served by existing frontage sidewalk along both West Division Street and North New Street. The primary pedestrian access appears to be from North New Street, where two (2) sidewalks are proposed connecting the two doors on this frontage to the public sidewalk. There are additional doors proposed on the north and east sides of the building. There is no proposed door on the West Division Street frontage. Lighting Article 5 §7.1 stipulates that lighting shall provide no less than 1.5 footcandles at grade. Light shall also be deflected away from adjacent residential areas and shall not be distracting to traffic on adjacent roads. The plans do not include any details of the proposed lighting plan; however, the applicant anticipates building wall-mounted light fixtures will be implemented. There is existing street lighting at this intersection. Waiver Requested: Elimination of Upright Curbing The Zoning Ordinance, Article 6 §3.6(b) requires upright curbing for all parking areas and access drives. The plan does not include curbing for the parking lot area at the rear. The Plans note a written waiver request for the elimination of curbing for consideration by the City Planner. The Waiver Request submitted does note that bollards will be utilized so to ensure vehicles remain a safe distance from the building. Dumpsters Article 5 Section 6.12 requires that an office building of less than 50,000 SF provide a minimum of two (2) dumpsters for the first 16,000 SF of gross floor area, and one (1) additional dumpster for each additional 16,000 SF of gross floor area thereafter. As the building is proposed to be 6,226 SF a minimum of two (2) dumpster units will need to be provided. The Plans submitted note a feature labeled as “Trash Container Storage” to the rear (north) of the proposed building facing the alley. The number of dumpsters is not identified. A Dumpster enclosure is required to screen the dumpster from view whenever these units are situated so that they will not be visible from any public right-of-way or from an adjacent property, as identified in Article 5 Section 6.11. A Dumpster Enclosure is shown on Site Plan Sheet, with details provided showing that it is to be built of masonry and will provide an opaque fence for dumpster enclosure access.

Item 4. S-23-01 NeighborGood Offices at 223 West Division Street DAC Report of February 8, 2023 Page 6 VI. BUILDING ARCHITECTURE The applicant has submitted an architectural rendering of the building depicting the structure as viewed from the southwest of the building looking northeast towards the building. The office building is two-stories in height, with an overhanging, gabled roof above. The main entrance appears to be on the North New Street elevation. The façade appears to be composed mostly of red brick. This brick is depicted covering the entire first floor on both the North New Street (west) and West Division Street (south) elevations. The wall space in between the 1st and 2nd floors is also shown covered in red brick, but with a decorative scheme of a darker colored brick placed creating a decorative, geometric pattern horizontally across both elevations. The second floor of the building is primarily clad in horizontal white siding. The doors and windows are black complementing the black roof above. There is an awning over the main entrance to the west. No depiction of the north or east facades are provided. VII. TREE PLANTING AND LANDSCAPE PLAN One (1) tree is required for every 3,000 SF of land area. This project site consists of a total lot area of 5,120 +/- SF which would require two (2) trees to be planted. No trees are shown to be planted on-site as there is little pervious surface available. Request for Consideration of Tree Mitigation Plan Article 5 § 16.91(a) allows the Planning Commission to grant a waiver to mitigate the trees required to be planted to achieve tree density requirements. The previous iteration of this Plan (Site Development Plan S-19-13) was approved with a Tree Mitigation Plan noting that one (1) additional tree would be provided at both 218 and 228 North Kirkwood Street. The Plans submitted with this current Application note the Tree Mitigation as approved previously but does not clearly provide documentation to confirm that these trees were planted at those addresses. This is also a Letter dated January 5, 2023 from the applicant noting tree plantings at 26 and 28 N. Kirkwood Streets as Tree Mitigation. Planning Staff will work with the applicant to confirm that these tree plantings did in fact occur at specific off-site properties, and that these trees are additional to those required for the development of those properties themselves or if new Tree Planting locations need to be identified. It is noted that each of the above referenced properties were proposed to be redeveloped as one- family-detached dwelling units (single-family homes). Such development is required to provided landscaping and tree plantings specific to those properties and their respective developments. Any information or documentation provided by the Applicant to confirm that these additional trees were planted at the aforementioned properties must also show that these additional trees were not counted toward the tree planting requirements of the respective addresses. Furthermore, Article 5 §15 of the Zoning Ordinance describes the landscape requirements for a new application, which are to be followed unless it can be demonstrated through the Site Plan review process that such features would be impractical or incompatible with a particular land use or site development proposal. The applicant has not submitted a landscape plan due to the limited availability of open space on the site for planting. However, the Site Plan showing the proposed project should identify what is intended for any area of the site that isn’t impervious. 26

Item 4. S-23-01 NeighborGood Offices at 223 West Division Street DAC Report of February 8, 2023 Page 7 VIII. CITY AND STATE CODE REQUIREMENTS The subject proposal has been reviewed for code compliance, plan conformity, and completeness in accordance with this agency’s authority and area of expertise. The following items have been identified as elements which need to be addressed by the applicant: 1) The Parcels previously addressed as 223 & 225 W. Division Street have been consolidated per the Final Plan Approval of Site Development Plan S-19-13. Recordation of the Lot Consolidation associated with the approved Site Development Plan was achieved on June 8, 2022. The Property Address for this Site is now 223 West. Division Street. Remove any reference to 225 W. Division Street, as well as any mention of a second parcel. 2) Building is referenced several times as being 34 feet. This was the building height noted with a previous version of the design at three (3) stories. Revise the Building Height for the current two (2) story design, noting that the maximum Building Height permitted in the C-1A (Limited Commercial Zone) is 30 feet. 3) The Site Plan must be updated with changes recommended or approvals including any waivers granted by the Planning Commission. Add to plan as reference notes. 4) The tree planting requirement shall be provided in accordance with the Zoning Ordinance unless a waiver is granted by the Planning Commission approving a Tree Mitigation Plan. A note was provided on the Site Plan referencing the previous approval of a Tree Mitigation Plan as was submitted with Application S-19-13 which has since expired. A separate Letter identified two other property addresses as the tree planting location. It is noted that the two properties referenced as having each received tree plantings must have trees present that are in addition to those required with the respective development of those properties themselves. Provide documentation to verify these tree plantings or propose new Tree Mitigation planting locations. 5) Sheet 1/Cover Sheet: a) Data Column i) Remove “225” under the Property Address, as the property is addressed as 223 W. Division Street. ii) For Item #9, provide the overall Building square footage. iii) Verify the Floor Area Ratio. iv) Bicycle Parking is referenced twice in the Data Column. Remove one of these references. v) The Maximum Building Height permitted in the C-1A (Limited Commercial Zone) is 30 feet. vi) For Item #24, remove “N/A” and provide the Tree Density Calculations both as required and proposed. Note the Tree Mitigation Plan as approved per the previous Site Development Plan S-19-13, noting the addresses. vii) For Item #25, remove the reference to there being Two (2) Existing Lots, as these Lots have been consolidated. b) Remove the Notation referencing the Board of Adjustment taken on Variance Application V-19-04. This Variance has since expired, and the Project is no longer 27

Item 4. S-23-01 NeighborGood Offices at 223 West Division Street DAC Report of February 8, 2023 Page 8 proposing development which would necessitate utilizing these Variances. c) Note the Bulk Standards as required and proposed. Note too that the bulk standards proposed are not increasing the degree of non-conformity as permitted per Article 7, Section 1.3 of the Zoning Ordinance. d) Under “List of Required Regulatory Approvals,” note that there is also the City of Dover Department of Water/ Wastewater. e) Include a note that the Previous Site Development Plan Application S-19-13 included a Lot Consolidation Plan which was recorded June 8, 2022. 6) Provide the Existing Conditions and Demolition Plan. 7) Please submit an Implementation Plan (or clarifying information) for the proposed off-site tree planting. The trees must be new plantings and must be planted in addition to any trees that would normally be required for the off-site properties’ development. IX. RECOMMENDED ADDITIONAL CONSIDERATIONS TO MEET CODE OBJECTIVES In accordance with the Zoning Ordinance, Article 10 §2.2, the Planning Commission in considering and acting upon Site Development Plans may prescribe appropriate conditions and safeguards so that the public health, safety, and welfare, the comfort and convenience of the public in general, and the residents of the immediate neighborhood in particular shall be taken into consideration. These safeguards may to the maximum extent possible further the expressed intent of the Zoning Ordinance and the accomplishment of several objectives in particular listed in subsections 2.21 to 2.28. 1) Waiver Requested: Elimination of Upright Curbing: In accordance with Article 6 §3.6(b) related to the requirement for upright curbing, Staff has approved the request to eliminate the upright curbing requirement for the office building. Staff acknowledges that the applicant is proposing to install bollards to prevent any damage to surrounding infrastructure, and that curbing is thought to interfere with the planned conveyance of stormwater runoff. 2) Waiver Request and Consideration of Tree Mitigation Plan: Staff recommends conditional approval of the Tree Mitigation Plan thus allowing for the required tree plantings to be planted at off-site locations in the City of Dover. The locations identified for these off-site tree plantings are properties to be developed by NeighborGood Partners. If these plantings have been carried out, documentation must be provided confirming this. If the trees have not yet been planted or is otherwise no longer practical, then alternate addresses must be identified/clarified. Staff notes the difficulty planting on this site due the limited amount of pervious areas available for suitable planting due to the impervious surface coverage of the site. a) The Plans must note the proposed sites of the tree mitigation. b) Additional comments on the specific proposed off-site planting location may be issued upon submission of an implementation plan for review. Other agencies may recommend additional considerations to meet code objectives in accordance with their areas of expertise. Action on all considerations identified in this section and by other agencies is at the discretion of the Planning Commission. 28

Item 5. S-23-04 Leander Lakes III Apartments Site Plan DAC Report of February 8, 2023 Page 2 of 11 CITY OF DOVER DEVELOPMENT ADVISORY COMMITTEE APPLICATION REVIEW COMMENTARY D.A.C. MEETING DATE: February 8, 2023 APPLICATION: Leander Lakes III Apartments FILE #: S-23-04 REVIEWING AGENCY: City of Dover Planning CONTACT PERSON: Katherine Oehmke, Planner I and Dawn Melson-Williams, Principal Planner PHONE #: (302) 736-7196 I. PLAN SUMMARY: This application is for Review of a Site Development Plan Application for the construction of eight (8) 3-story garden style 24-unit apartment buildings and 1 (one) 2-story 8 unit building for a total of two hundred (200) units. Also proposed are 450 parking spaces, walking paths, landscaping, recreation areas and other site improvements. The project area of 25 acres is zoned RM-2 (Medium Density Residence Zone) and partially subject to the COZ-1 (Corridor Overlay Zone) with the balance of the overall property zoned R-10 (One Family Residence Zone and partially subject to COZ-1 (Commercial Overlay Zone). The application includes a Minor Subdivision Plan to create Lot 1 of 50.19 acres+/- (residual) and Lot 2 of 25 acres (project area). The property is located on the south side of Forrest Ave west of Dover High Drive. The owner of record is Calvary Baptist Church of Dover and equitable owner/developer is Leander Lakes III, LLC. Property is currently unaddressed on Forrest Ave. Tax Parcel: ED-05-075.00-01-06.00- 000. Council District 1. For Consideration: Active Recreation Area Plan. Existing Property: With the overall 75.51-acre property, the property has frontage on Forrest Avenue (Route 8) and Artis Drive, but the main site access is from Forest Avenue. The property is crossed by a small stream and includes woodlands, wetlands, and agricultural lands. In the northeast corner of the site, a place of worship (church) building has been approved under Conditional Use Site Plan C-19-06. The proposed church building sits back over 625 feet from Forrest Avenue with a large stormwater management area directly adjacent to the road. The church building location is flanked by parking areas on the east side of the building and a large open space in front of the proposed building reserved for a future building expansion. There are large expanses of open land on the tract to the southern and western portions of the property. The southeastern portion of the property consisting of 25 acres is the location of this proposed Apartment Complex. Previous Applications: The property was annexed into the City in early 2007 along with several other properties on the west side of the City following the annexation of the Carey Farm for the site of the new Dover High School (AX-06-09). At the time of annexation, the property was zoned to R-10 (One 49

Item 5. S-23-04 Leander Lakes III Apartments Site Plan DAC Report of February 8, 2023 Page 3 of 11 Family Residence Zone) and COZ-1 (Corridor Overlay Zone). Prior to annexation into the City of Dover, the Calvary Baptist Church completed a Site Plan review process under the jurisdiction of Kent County (CS-03-08). That Plan was then accepted by the City through Administrative Site Plan review (MI-07-07). A Building Permit (#07-547) for construction of the church building was issued but not acted upon and then expired. The overall 75-acre property is subject of Conditional Use Site Plan Application C-19-06 Calvary Baptist Church for construction of a new place of worship and associated site improvements including a site entrance from Forrest Avenue. The Conditional Use Site Plan received conditional approval by the Planning Commission at their July 15, 2019 meeting, an extension of plan approval on May 17, 2021, and Final Plan Approval in December 2021. Preparations for the start of construction are occurring as the Building Permit is pending review. The property was the subject of Rezoning Application Z-22-02 focusing on a 25 acre portion of the parcel. In October 2022, the zoning for the 25 acres was approved as RM-2 (Medium Density Residence Zone) and partially subject to the COZ-1 (Corridor Overlay Zone). Surrounding Land Uses The surrounding parcels are zoned residential. Located to the north across Forrest Avenue (Route 8) are a series of lots with single family homes which are outside City limits and under the jurisdiction of Kent County. To the east is the Destiny Christian Church which has access to Forrest Avenue. A second church, Dover Christian Church, also fronts on Forrest Avenue but has access from Dover High Drive. Adjoining the subject site to the southeast, there is multi- family development for 240 apartment units known as Leander Lakes (S-12-18). To the south is agricultural land outside of City limits and to the west of the project area is a wooded portion of the main parcel. Preliminary Land Use Services Review (PLUS) An application (PLUS Review #2022-11-06) related to this Leander Lakes III project was reviewed by the State’s Preliminary Land Use Services, as required by the City of Dover’s Memorandum of Understanding (MOU). It was reviewed by the state at the meeting on November 16, 2022. This MOU requires that non-residential developments of over 75,000 square feet or residential developments containing 125 or more dwelling units complete the PLUS Review process prior to application submission. The development proposal submitted by the developers to PLUS envisioned 200 apartment units for the 25-acre portion of the unaddressed parcel of Forrest Avenue. Copies of the PLUS Review Comments are provided. The Applicant’s Response to PLUS must be submitted. II. PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The Site Development Plan as submitted by the applicant for the Leander Lakes III Apartments consists of nine (9) garden style apartment buildings with active recreation areas and walking paths. This information is provided to show how the Site Plan submitted is achieving the aims set out in the Zoning Ordinance, Article 5 Section 10: Open space, recreation, and other public facilities. The estimated minimum and proposed area of recreation initially submitted was 55,000 SF. After proposed revisions to the Recreation Plan, the area is estimated at 1.61 Acres +/-. 50

Item 5. S-23-04 Leander Lakes III Apartments Site Plan DAC Report of February 8, 2023 Page 4 of 11 Minor Subdivision Plan This Site Plan is also asking for a minor subdivision of the 75 +/- acres main parcel to create the project site of 25 acres with frontage on Forrest Avenue. The project area parcel (Lot 2) is to coincide with the land area recently rezoned to the RM-2 zoning district. Lot 1 of 50.19 acres is the residual area of the main parcel (proposed church location). III. ZONING REVIEW: This property is unaddressed and was recently rezoned as RM-2 (Medium Density Residential Zone) with a portion fronting on Forrest Avenue being subject to COZ-1 (Commercial Overlay Zone). The RM-2 zone allows for a variety of housing unit types ranging from single family detached dwellings, duplexes, multiplexes, and townhouses to garden apartments. The RM-2 zone has a maximum gross residential density limitation of eight dwelling units per acre. COZ-1 (Corridor Overlay Zone) The subject site involved with this application is partially located within the COZ-1 (Corridor Overlay Zone). The COZ-1 impacts only the front 520 feet of the property along Forrest Avenue. The proposed apartment complex (main area with buildings) is not within the COZ-1; only a portion of the entrance drive of Toulson Terrace is within the COZ-1. Thus, this means that only portions of the site and its development are subject to the COZ-1 provisions. The Zoning Ordinance details the requirements of the COZ-1 in Article 3 §26 and its subsections. The Corridor Overlay Zone as a planning and growth management tool is designed to foster and attractive, efficient, and economically vibrant urban corridor along Route 8/Forrest Avenue and Saulsbury/McKee Roads. To this end, more stringent standards are applied to development taking place along the corridor. A discussion of the provisions of the COZ-1 which apply to this application follows below. The plan as presented is in compliance with the requirements listed below. Since no buildings are in the COZ-1 area, they are not required to meet the COZ-1 provisions. • Achieves the following for the parking lot layout/arrangement: parking lot location is not in the front yard setback and the number of parking spaces versus islands. Since there is currently no building within the COZ-1 zone area, the parking lot is accepted in its current location. • The proposal meets the requirement that 25% of the lot consist of landscaped open space. A significant amount of development area (Lot 2) remains as open space. • Street frontage of Forrest Avenue is required to have a landscaped open space of 25 feet and provide one tree per 50 (fifty) feet of frontage. (See Landscape discussion.) • Non-frontages (side and rear yards) in the COZ-1 area are required to have landscaped open space of 15 feet when adjacent to residential uses and landscaped open space of 5 feet when adjacent to non-residential uses and to provide one tree per 75 (seventy-five) feet. (See Landscape discussion.) IV. PARKING SUMMARY: The parking requirement for apartments is based on a rate of two (2) parking spaces per dwelling unit plus 0.25 space per dwelling unit for visitor parking. Based on the number of dwelling units (200 units), this site would require 450 parking spaces. The plans submitted identify a total of 51

Item 5. S-23-04 Leander Lakes III Apartments Site Plan DAC Report of February 8, 2023 Page 5 of 11 450 parking spaces located around the perimeter of the complex and including handicapped accessible parking spaces near each building. Bicycle Parking The site plans submitted identify three (3) bike rack locations, but no details are provided. Bicycle parking is required at a ratio of one space for every twenty parking spaces. If the site is required to have 450 vehicle parking spaces, then twenty-three (23) bicycle parking spaces are required. Upright Curbing The upright cubing for parking lots and drive isles is required by the requirements of the Article 6 Section 3.6(b) of the Zoning Ordinance. Locations and type of curbing must be clarified on the Site Plan. V. SITE CONSIDERATIONS: Access The access to this Apartment Complex portion of the site is off the future development for the Calvary Baptist Church which has an entrance/exit from Forrest Avenue. The connecting entrance drive for the Apartment Complex is labeled as Toulson Terrace. The on-site circulation of the proposed Leander Lakes III apartment complex also connects to the parking lot drive aisle (Isabelle Isle) of the existing Leander Lakes apartments. Rear Emergency Access Rear Emergency Access is required for some residential dwelling types. According to Article 5, Section 17 of the Zoning Ordinance an 18 ft. wide Secondary Fire Lane or 18 ft. wide subgrade emergency access lane is required for Apartments that are 2-3 stories to serve as rear access. This is to provide access to rear building areas. The plan calls for an emergency access lane network along the inside of the common area with a 10 foot wide concrete path with an additional 4 foot of grass pavers on either side. This creates a lane of 18 foot width to provide a fire access to the back side of each of the buildings. The Fire Marshal’s Office will also evaluate these fire protection measures as related to the fire lane requirements of the applicable Fire Codes. Lighting Staff counted twelve (12) light poles on the Site Plan between the buildings and the parking lots. No further details are listed. Open space lighting for the walking paths or the emergency access lane paths was shown on the Revised Recreation Area Exhibit Plan. Sidewalks Sidewalks are shown on the plans between the parking lots and the building access points. The revisions on the Recreation Area Exhibit Plan now shows select sidewalks/pathways depicted as connecting directly to the recreational amenity areas. There are sidewalks that continue from Building A and Building I in Leander Lakes III across Toulson Terrace to connect to the neighboring community of Leander Lakes Apartments. Dumpsters The Dumpster requirement for apartments is two Dumpsters for the first 48 units and one Dumpster for each additional 24 units or fraction thereof. Based on 200 apartment units, a total 52

Item 5. S-23-04 Leander Lakes III Apartments Site Plan DAC Report of February 8, 2023 Page 6 of 11 of nine (9) Dumpsters are required. There is a single dumpster space for each building drawn on the site plans at the back end of the parking lot. There must be space for both trash and recycling containers in these Dumpsters. Wetlands & Buffering The Zoning Ordinance, Article 5 §11.22 prescribes provisions related to wetland areas. It requires setbacks from wetland areas that are over 0.25 acres in size. This plan depicts Non-Tidal wetlands which coincide with a stream that crosses the property. A 100-foot setback is required; however, this can be reduced to 50 feet with implementation of a Riparian Buffer or reduced to 30 feet with bank stabilization. Adjacent to the wetland/stream the plan shows a 50 foot riparian buffer where existing vegetation will be maintained. The site parking lot circulation drive aisle (Porter Place) crosses the stream in two locations. More detail on the culvert and design of the road crossings is needed and will require specific permits. VI. BUILDING ARCHITECTURE: The applicant has submitted floor plans for the 24-unit apartment buildings, as well as elevations for both the three story 24-unit buildings and the two story 8-unit building. The floor plans outline 2-bedroom units, 2-bedroom + den units, and 3-bedroom units. Each unit has a balcony or patio area. The larger buildings have two points of entry as an open stairwell corridor to access the four units on each floor. The detail drawings show the front, rear, left and right building elevations. Additionally detailed drawings for the 24-unit buildings were provided showing the side gable, corner tower, entry, projecting balcony, and rear gable group. Each of the gables has a decorative gable trimwork. The exterior finishes of the apartment buildings consist of a brick watertable, 6-inch horizontal vinyl siding with select areas of vertical siding (colors to be chosen by the owner, 12-inch metal wrapped trim board, and 8-inch fascia boards. The siding on the select gable elements is vertical with 3-inch trim bands around the ends. Architectural asphalt shingles are shown for the pitched roofs. VII. TREE PLANTING AND LANDSCAPE PLAN: Zoning Ordinance, Article 5 Section 16 lays out the requirements for tree planting and preservation. A new project is required to provide tree planting at a rate of one (1) tree per 3,000 SF of “Development Area.” The Cover Sheet (Sheet C-101) of the Plans submitted appear to note existing woodland on-site providing an area of 2.01 acres for this feature generally found in the southwest corner of the project area. The Zoning Ordinance Article 5, Section 16 defines “Woodland” as follows: Woodland. An area of contiguous wooded vegetation (7,500 square feet or greater), where trees exist at a density of at least one tree with a caliper dimension of six inches or greater per 375 square feet of land and where the tree branches form a contiguous canopy. According to plans, there are 2.01 acres of existing woods, and they propose to remove 0.45 acres of these woods to make way for the building site. Based on the number of acres for this development site, the minimum required number of trees is 341. The site plans show 367 trees spread over the site around the parking lot and in the internal open space areas. There are tree plantings adjacent to Forrest Avenue and along the property lines in the COZ-1 area of the parcel. However, there are no trees proposed on the plan along the balance of 53

Item 5. S-23-04 Leander Lakes III Apartments Site Plan DAC Report of February 8, 2023 Page 7 of 11 the entrance drive labeled Toulson Terrace leading to the apartment complex. The plan calls for three types of deciduous and evergreen trees but does not specify tree species. COZ-1 Landscaping Requirements The COZ-1 requires that a minimum of 25% of the site be landscaped open space. For this site approximately 59.4% of the entire parcel is open space (40.6% is impervious cover per the submitted plan). By estimation the area of the site in the COZ-1 area also complies with this open space requirement as only the entrance drive cross though that area. The COZ also requires at least one tree per 50 linear feet of frontage be planted; three trees are planted along the multi- modal path at the Forrest Avenue frontage. One tree per 75 feet is also required on non-frontage perimeters within the COZ-1 zone. There are trees on the west and east property lines of the project area in the COZ-1. VIII. ACTIVE RECREATION AREA Active Recreation Area Plan Review The Zoning Ordinance, Article 5 Section 10 sets out requirements to preserve areas of open space within residential developments which are designed to provide buffer spaces between developing areas, to preserve existing natural and historic features and to establish a network of open spaces within the built environment to provide a balance between developed and undeveloped lands, wildlife habitat conservation, the preservation of scenic view corridors, and to provide residents opportunities to engage in passive recreational activities. Zoning Ordinance, Article 5 Section 10.11 notes the purpose of providing Recreation Areas. Article 5 §10.1 Recreation areas. 10.11 Purpose. The purpose of this section is to ensure that active recreation areas are provided as an integral design element within residential developments and that such facilities are of an adequate scale in relation to the size of the residential development and which provide residents with a variety of active recreational pursuits. The applicant has submitted a Revised Recreation Areas Exhibit Plan dated February 8, 2023. This Revised Plan makes some changes to the amenities as one of the previous playground areas is now Fitness Area. An itemized listing of the Recreation Areas and materials is given on the Plan sheet. See Recreation Plan Review Report for more detailed review (attached document) including an Addendum on the Revised submission. IX. CITY AND STATE CODE REQUIREMENTS: The subject proposal has been reviewed for Code compliance, plan conformity, and completeness in accordance with this agency’s authority and area of expertise. The following items have been identified as elements which need to be addressed by the applicant: 1) Active Recreation Area: The applicant is responsible for providing an Active Recreation Area of a minimum 55,000 SF.

STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS The following are comments and recommendations from staff of the Planning Office following review of the Active Recreation Area Plan. 1) Provide itemized list size (dimensions) of each recreation area amenity including playground, sport court, and 2 pathway systems (walkway and rear emergency access lane path). Based on 200 units, a total of 55,000 SF of Active Recreation Area must be provided. 2) The Site Plan overall is showing pedestrian connectivity among the various buildings, amenities, and across the drive-aisles and the parking lot areas. 3) Active Recreation Area: As a residential development, there is a requirement for Active Recreation area(s). Staff Recommends the following regarding these Recreation Areas: a. Playgrounds: Plans submitted show that there are proposed features identified as playgrounds, but further information is needed as to what specific playground amenities are proposed. i. It should also be noted what material is intended for the ground cover. ii. Consider moving the south playground to the common area between Buildings F&G so it has more direct access to the parking lot. iii. Add fence or landscape barrier between south playground and nearby stormwater management pond. b. Sport Courts: The Sport Court appears to show features indicating use as a Cornhole Courts/Horseshoe Pits. Indicate the materials used for court areas. i. Connecting these areas to the walking paths would allow for wheelchair and stroller access. c. Walking Trails: One style of walking trail/path run north-south on each side of the stream interconnecting with the Rear Emergency Access Lanes (10 ft. wide concrete flanked by 4 ft. wide grass pavers for total of 18 foot width) creating a two separate loops in the central open space area. i. Identify surface material, width, and edge treatment of walking trails. d. Bicycle Parking: Bicycle parking should be located at every one of the Apartment Buildings. If any Bike Parking facilities are proposed internal to the buildings, then the Plans should note as such. i. Staff recommends adding bike racks near each recreation amenity like the south playground area. e. Pedestrian Connectivity: Staff notes that the sidewalk system could easily be extended in several locations to increase pedestrian connectivity to the overall development. i. The sidewalk along Toulson Terrace is against the entrance drive curbing. It would be more pedestrian friendly if there was a grass buffer area between the 81

Item 5. S-23-04: Leander Lakes III Apartments Active Recreation Area Plan Review for Parks and Recreation Meeting With Addendum of February 10, 2023 February 14, 2023 Page 7 of 8 entrance drive curb and the sidewalk. ii. Make sure to connect the bike racks and the recreation areas directly to the pedestrian paths. Make sure to add sitting benches in the playground areas as well as the sport courts. iii. Identify Lighting of walkway/path system. f. Pedestrian Facilities Internal to the Site: The layout of the proposed sidewalks internal to the site are generally good with the exception of interconnection to Leander Lake I. i. Add Pedestrian marked crossings where sidewalks continue to link to existing Leander Lakes Apartments (crossing of Isabelle Isle). g. Sidewalk Cuts: No curb cuts or ramps shown on sidewalks or near street crossings; add accessible ramps. h. Adequate Lighting for the Site: It appears in the plan that the light fixtures are only at the building side of the parking lots. Please detail the light fixtures to be used and add lighting to the back side of the parking lots as necessary. i. Landscaping: Specific tree species will need to be identified on the plans and signed off by a Landscape Architect as per Zoning Ordinance. 4) Clarify if residents of Leander Lakes III will have access to Clubhouse and Pool facilities located in Leander Lakes I (existing apartment complex to the east). VI. ADVISORY COMMENTS 1) This Site Development Plan set depicting the Recreational Areas are to include appropriate improvements, plans, and details of the Active Recreation Area as approved. 2) There shall be provisions which ensure that the community space (all areas under consideration for Active Recreation Areas) shall continue as such and be properly managed and maintained. The developer shall either retain ownership and responsibility for maintenance of the common use areas or provide for and establish one (1) or more organizations for the ownership and maintenance of all common space i.e., a Homeowners Association or other property management entity. The organization shall be responsible for maintenance, insurance, and taxes on the community space. 3) In the event, that major changes and revisions to the Plan occur in the finalization of the Plan contact the Planning Office. Examples include reorientation of buildings, relocation of site components, changes in floor area or unit count, or design revisions impacting Active Recreation Areas. These changes may require resubmission for review by the Development Advisory Committee, Planning Commission, or other agencies and commissions making recommendations in regard to the plan. 4) The Parks, Recreation, and Community Enhancement Committee shall submit to the Planning Commission a report detailing the recommendations as to the Recreation Area Plan. 82

Item 6. City of Dover CITY OF DOVER Planning Office DEVELOPMENT ADVISORY COMMITTEE APPLICATION REVIEW COMMENTARY D.A.C. MEETING DATE: February 8, 2023 APPLICATION: Tidal Wave Auto Spa at 245 North DuPont Highway FILE #: S-23-05 REVIEWING AGENCY: City of Dover Planning CONTACT PERSON: Julian Swierczek, AICP PHONE #: (302) 736-7196 I. PLAN SUMMARY This application is for review of a Site Development Plan Application and associated Lot Consolidation Plan Application for two (2) parcels totaling 2.15 +/- acres at 245 North DuPont Highway. The Plan is to permit construction of a 3,690 SF Car Wash facility, 24 vacuum spaces, and associated site improvements. The properties are zoned C-4 (Highway Commercial Zone). The parcels consist of a total of 2.15 +/- acres and is located on the northeastern corner of N. Dupont Highway and White Oak Road. The owner of record is TWAS Properties LLC. Property Addresses: 245 and 243 N Dupont Highway. Tax Parcel IDs: ED-05-068.18-01-13.00-000 and ED-05-068.18-01-12.00-000. II. PROJECT DESCRIPTION The subject properties were most recently used as retail (Rite Aid Pharmacy); however, this previous use has ceased, and the existing building is currently vacant. The subject site is currently comprised of two (2) parcels totaling 2.15 +/- acres in total, and the Plans submitted indicate that the Applicant is to consolidate the properties into one single parcel. The project proposes demolition of the existing retail building. This would allow then for the construction a new one- story 3,690 SF building to be utilized as the new Car Wash Facility as well as other site features. The Plans indicate that there are to be two (2) additional structures to the east of the proposed main building to be built. These are both to be structures to cover the thirty-four (34) Vacuum Stations proposed. With one structure providing cover to twenty-four (24) spaces to the south, and ten (10) spaces to the north, both running perpendicular to the proposed main building to the west. Surrounding Land Uses: Immediately abutting this property to the north and east are further properties also zoned C-4 (Highway Commercial Zone) containing a mix of retail uses. It is noted that these properties appear to share access drives and parking, and the Applicant has noted the existence of some easements to that effect. Across White Oak Road to the south and west of the subject site are properties also zoned C-4 and containing a mix of commercial uses as well as two single-family homes which are legal non-conforming as they were developed prior to the current zoning regulations. Across White Oak Road from the subject site to the south and east are more single-family homes on properties zoned R-7 (One-Family Residence Zone). Across North DuPont Highway to the west are properties 88

Item 6. S-23-05 Tidal Wave Auto Spa at 245 N. DuPont Highway DAC Report of February 8, 2023 Page 2 again zoned C-4, and containing a Restaurant (Dunkin Donuts), as well as another Car Wash Facility (Race Track Car Wash), and a Motel (Superlodge). III. ZONING REVIEW C-4 (Highway Commercial Zone) The C-4 Zoning District in the City of Dover permits the following: retail stores; business, professional, and government offices; restaurants; personal service establishments; service establishments; hotels and motels; places of public assembly; bus terminals; wholesale, storage, warehousing, and distribution establishments; indoor or outdoor recreation and amusement establishments; hospitals and medical centers; drive-throughs; motor vehicle, boat, or farm equipment service stations subject to conditions; manufacturing with less than 25 employees; and mini-storage facilities. Permitted conditionally subject to Conditional Use approval by the Planning Commission: apartments and multi-family dwellings; crematories subject to conditions. See City of Dover Zoning Ordinance, Article 3 Section 16 for more details on the C-4 zoning district. The use of a Car Wash Facility is considered a service establishment, which is a permitted use in the C-4 Zoning District. IV. PARKING SUMMARY The parking requirement for a building within the C-4 zone is one parking space per 300 SF of floor area, or one per every employee, whichever is greater. Based on floor area of 3,690 SF the facility would require thirteen (13) parking spaces. The plan appears to show a total of forty-one (41) parking spaces. This includes thirty-four (34) parking spaces with vacuum service equipment. There are also two (2) ADA vehicle parking spaces immediately abutting the proposed building to the east. Five (5) vehicle parking spaces are shown to the north of the site, accessed by the shared access-drive which runs along the north property line. The Plan identifies these as being intended as employee parking. Bicycle Parking Bicycle parking is required at a ratio of one space for every twenty parking spaces. If the site is to be served by 41 parking spaces, three bicycle parking spaces are required. Currently, none are shown on the Plans submitted but the applicant has stated that a bicycle parking rack will be provided. The Zoning Ordinance, Article 6 Section 3.10 does allow for the Applicant to request a Waiver from the requirements to provide bicycle parking from the Planning Commission, provided the Applicant can demonstrate that bicycle parking would not be appropriate for safety reasons or due to the nature of the use of the site V. SITE CONSIDERATIONS Access There are two points of existing vehicle access to the site from the adjacent shared circulation system. There is an existing shared access drive from North DuPont Highway. This provides access to a Drive Aisle which runs along the north property line of the subject site. There is an existing entrance to the parking areas existing on-site from this shared access drive, but this subject Application is proposing moving this entrance from the west end (closer to North DuPont Highway) to further east. There is another two-way entrance existing at the southeast corner of the site which currently provides vehicle access to the adjacent property immediately to the east of the subject site. No change is proposed to this vehicle access point. 89

Item 6. S-23-05 Tidal Wave Auto Spa at 245 N. DuPont Highway DAC Report of February 8, 2023 Page 3 The new location of the vehicle access point along the north access drive provides connection to the drive thru lanes where vehicles may cue for the drive-thru car wash. The vehicle access point at the southeast corner of the project site which in turn provides access from the adjacent property to the east. There is a one-way drive-aisle which runs parallel to the east property line (south to north) which connects the two access points. This Drive Aisle along the east property line provides access to the vehicle parking and vacuum stations located internal to the site via a two-way drive aisle which encompasses these facilities. There is otherwise no direct connection from either North DuPont Highway or White Oak Road to the drive aisles or parking areas internal to the site. Sidewalks Sidewalks are required along all street frontages (Zoning Ordinance, Article 5 §18). The plan shows an existing sidewalk along the North DuPont Highway frontage, which is to be removed. In its place, the Applicant is proposing a new 5-foot wide sidewalk, which appears to include a sidewalk connection into the site. The Applicant is similarly proposing to replace the existing sidewalk along the White Oak Road frontage to the south with a 5-foot wide sidewalk, which in turn also is showing a sidewalk connection onto the site. While there is a connection from the sidewalks along both the North DuPont Highway and White Oak Road frontages shown, these sidewalks are connecting to vehicle only infrastructure on-site without any paths identified for pedestrians to access the proposed building, parking areas or other site features. There is an existing sidewalks connection off North DuPont Highway along the north property line, providing pedestrian access to the properties to the east of the subject Site. This sidewalk is to be removed, with a new sidewalk connection off North DuPont Highway that would connect to where vehicles would cue to enter the Car Wash. It appears to be at the widest point of these drive-aisles, where vehicle would have to turn and there is a concern about visibility here. There is also no pedestrian crossing shown across the drive aisle, but it does appear that a pathway for this sidewalk to again connect to the east property lines exists; however, it is shown to cross the drive aisle a total of three (3) times before making said connection. The sidewalk connecting from the White Oak Road frontage from the south similarly connects to a drive aisle but has no pedestrian path clearly visible connecting from this point to any of the on-site features. This sidewalk connects at a point where vehicles exit the Car Wash and two drive aisles connect, being an area of heavy vehicle traffic. Lighting Article 5 §7.1 stipulates that lighting shall provide no less than 1.5 foot-candles at grade. Light shall be deflected away from adjacent residential areas and shall not be distracting to traffic on adjacent roads. The Lighting scheme has been shown on Plan Sheet C-301. Dumpsters There is not a specific Dumpster requirement for this type of use. A Dumpster enclosure is proposed off the drive aisle which runs parallel to the east property line, as shown in the site Plan (Plan Sheet C-301). The number of dumpsters to be contained are not identified, nor is the method of trash collection. 90

Item 6. S-23-05 Tidal Wave Auto Spa at 245 N. DuPont Highway DAC Report of February 8, 2023 Page 4 Some details are provided in the Elevation Drawing submitted in conjunction with the Site Plan. This appears to indicate that the overall aesthetic of the exterior of the Dumpster Enclosure is in keeping with the overall design of the main building (Carwash). Both the Elevation Plan Sheet and Site Plan Sheet note that the presence of a smaller gate providing access to what appears to be a short series of ascending steps within the Dumpster Enclosure. Curbing The upright curbing for the parking lots and drive aisles are subject to the requirements of Article 6 Section 3.6(b) of the Zoning Ordinance. The Applicant appears to show curbing along all paved areas throughout the site, however no details of the curbing have been provided. Such details will need to be provided to determine if the curbing height is in compliance. VI. BUILDING ARCHITECTURE The Plan submission includes Elevation Drawings. These color drawings depict all four elevations of the proposed 1-story Car Wash Facility building and identifies the materials proposed. The Building overall appears to be comprised primarily of glass walls, with certain facades containing flat surfaces painted in a dark gray. These are accented by the corners being covered in a light gray stone veneer in the upper areas, and a watertable around the lower portions of the walls of a warmer brown stone veneer. The proposed building runs parallel to North DuPont Highway. The façade facing North DuPont Highway appears to be almost entirely composed of glass (with the exception of the stone veneer on the north and south corners) though the material which appears as glass is not explicitly identified under the Exterior Materials Legend. The building is capped by a gabled roof which is noted as being of a dark blue metal material. There is an Elevation Sheet containing a building layout and two Elevation Drawings of the proposed roof structure over the (24) Vacuum Stations proposed running parallel to White Oak Road. This structure is open on all four sides and shows a series of dark metal beams supporting a blue metal roof similar to that of the main building to the west. The Site Plan notes this canopy structure sheltering 24 total stations (12 along both the south and north sides of the structure), with an enclosed space to the west end to contain some of the vacuum equipment. The elevations do not depict any of the Vacuum Equipment, nor the enclosed space towards the west end of the canopy The Elevation Drawings also appear to only show 11 spaces on either side (22 total). No information is provided for the additional covered parking area for the ten (10) Vacuum Stations to the north shown on the Site Plan, but it may be similar to the main Vacuum Canopy depicted. VII. TREE PLANTING AND LANDSCAPE PLAN The submitted plan set includes a concept for the Landscaping Plan (Sheet C-701). The Stated development area is 2.04 +/- acres (88,718 SF), which would require thirty (30) trees to meet the tree density requirements. However, the Site Overall appears to be 2.15 +/- acres, which coincides with the Plans’ stated “Area of Disturbance.” 2.15 +/- acres would equate to roughly 93,654 SF, which would require a total number of thirty-two (32) trees to be planted. The Applicant must clarify the Lot Area overall (in both acreage and square feet) to verify the total number of tree plantings required. The Landscape Plan submitted with their overall submission (Sheet C-701) which identifies (32) 91

Item 6. S-23-05 Tidal Wave Auto Spa at 245 N. DuPont Highway DAC Report of February 8, 2023 Page 5 trees proposed and a variety of other shrubs and ornamental plants. They have provided four (4) different Shade Tree types including Red Maple, Willow and Red Oak, and Kentucky Coffee Trees. These Trees are shown largely around the perimeter of the Site, as well as along the perimeter of the stormwater pond. The Plan further notes a variety of ornamental trees, deciduous shrubs, and evergreen shrubs. These are all shown largely around the perimeter of the Site. Arterial Street Buffer Requirements The Zoning Ordinance, Article 5 Section 7.3 requires that where a nonresidential zoned property fronts on a principal arterial street, a landscape buffer shall be required in addition to normal landscaping of the street right-of-way. Article 5, Section 7.31 further addresses the landscaping requirements of this buffer by noting that, at the time of development of the property, the arterial street buffer shall be planted with a variety of trees, shrubs and ground cover. The landscape design and planting plan for these arterial street buffers shall be subject to the approval of the planning commission as an integral part of the site development plan. The Site Plan submitted notes on the Landscape Plan (Plan Sheet C-701) that a 30-foot Arterial Street Buffer shows is to be implemented. This area appears to contain four (4) Red Oak shade trees, as well as a series of evergreen shrubs. Parking Lot Landscape Requirements The Zoning Ordinance Article 5 Section 7.23 requires that whenever a Parking Lot is located across the street from a residential use, it shall be screened from view of such land by a thick hedge located along a line drawn parallel to the street. Across White Oak Road to the south of the subject site is a series of properties zoned R-7 (One-Family Detached Dwelling Units) containing single family homes which are part of the Edge Hill neighborhood. The Applicant has shown that a row of evergreen shrubs is to be planted along the south property line (White Oak Road frontage). Interspersed with Red Maple Trees. The existing fence along this frontage appears to be removed with this redevelopment plan. The Site Layout does not show parking to be located along the south frontage of the site facing White Oak Road. Instead, the Plans show a drive aisle running along the White Oak Road frontage of the Site, accessing parking spaces for the Vacuum Stations immediately to the north of the drive aisle. These vehicle parking spaces face north, away from the houses across White Oak Road to the south. VIII. CITY AND STATE CODE REQUIREMENTS: The subject proposal has been reviewed for Code compliance, plan conformity, and completeness in accordance with this agency’s authority and area of expertise. The following items have been identified as elements which need to be addressed by the applicant: 1) Bicycle Parking is required to be provided at a rate of one (1) space for every twenty (20) vehicle parking spaces. The Plans must show where these facilities are to be located and must provide details as to the method thereof. 92

Item 6. S-23-05 Tidal Wave Auto Spa at 245 N. DuPont Highway DAC Report of February 8, 2023 Page 6 2) The Site currently consists of two (2) separate parcels. Ensure that all information provided regarding current conditions reflects this. 3) A separate Record Plan Sheet will need to be provided that addresses the proposed Lot Consolidation and any other Easements or other such features requiring recordation with the Kent County Recorder of Deeds. 4) For ease of reference, assign each of the existing Lots a common reference (“A” and “B”). 5) Clarify the Lot specifications. The Cover Sheet under “General Notes” does not provide information specific to either of the Lots. As such, there is a note on the “Min. Lot Area” being 2.04 +/- acres (88,718 SF), and then another note stating “Acreage of Proposed Disturbance: 2.15 acres +/-.” 6) Clarify the Elevation Drawings. Not all materials are identified. No information is provided on what appears to be the glass/ windows, especially those which appear to comprise the bulk of the west façade facing North DuPont Highway. This feature is identified with “T2” on the Drawing, but “T2” is not provided in the Materials Legend. Identify this material, clarify the color, and verify that these are to be windows. Also clarify as to how opaque or not this is to be, as this would expose the internal workings of the Car Wash. Similarly, what appears to be windows under the gable on the east façade is identified as “G3,” but there is no “G3” in the Legend. Lastly, the Legend notes materials “GL-1” and “GL-2,” but these do not appear to be shown on the Elevation Drawings. Clarify too the Building Materials and Colors and ensure that the information is consistent throughout. Sheet G100 of the Elevation Drawings shows Building Surface identified as “PT-1” being of a dark gray on the Elevation Drawing itself, but the Materials Legend shows this as being a light tan color “Quinoa.” 7) Clarify the Discrepancy between the Elevation Drawings submitted depicting one Canopy structure for 22 vacuum stations (11 on each side), as no such Canopy is shown on the Site Plan. The site Plan depicts 1 double-sided Canopy structure for 24 stations (12 on each side) with an enclosed space to the west end for equipment. There is also one Canopy structure to the north for 10 total Vacuum Stations. 8) All dumpster enclosures must be constructed of durable materials that will withstand the normal wear expected during trash removal. If the dumpster is within view of a public right of way it the appearance of the dumpster enclosure should complement the architecture of the principal building on the lot (Zoning Ordinance, Article 5, Section 6). Please clarify the construction details of the dumpster enclosure. 9) Since there is the presence of a dumpster enclosure on the plans it is under our assumption that the trash collection will be private. Please verify this with a note on the plans. 10) City of Dover Zoning Ordinance, Article 6, Section 3 requires curb height to be six inches in all permanent parking areas. Please clarify the height of the curbing shown on the plans. 93

Item 6. S-23-05 Tidal Wave Auto Spa at 245 N. DuPont Highway DAC Report of February 8, 2023 Page 7 11) Provide details on the Vacuum stations, noting the scale and location of the units. This should be done to convey that the Vehicle Parking Spaces do not impede the minimum 9’ x 18’ required for a vehicle parking space. 12) The tree density required is 1 tree per 3,000 SF of development area or fraction thereof (Zoning Ordinance, Article 5 Section 16.62). The development area of the Site appears to be incorrectly noted as 2.08 +/- acres, which is believed to only reference one of the two parcels. The site overall appears to be a combined 2.15 +/- acres. Confirm the area of Site overall (including both parcels) and provide their area in both acreage as well as square footage to confirm the tree planting calculations. 13) Cover Sheet (C-101): a. General Notes i. Note all of the Bulk Standards for the C-4 (Highway Commercial Zone) as found in Article 4, Section 4.15 of the Zoning Ordinance. Specify if the Bulk Standards noted are for the existing conditions, existing conditions per Lot, or proposed. It is noted that the side yard setback Provided of 244.3 feet appears to not account for the Canopies (roofed areas) over the Vacuum Stations. Adjust the Side Yard Setback figure accordingly. ii. Note the Lot Area of each existing Parcel, as well as the Area of the Subject Site Overall. Provide both in acreage and square footage. iii. Clarify the “Acreage of Proposed Disturbance, as this figure is greater than the actual Lot Area provided. iv. Correct the Vehicle Parking Space Calculations. The minimum number of Vehicle Parking Spaces required is thirteen (13), not 12. v. Provide the Tree Planting Calculations, ensuring this is determined based on the Site overall. vi. Note the Bicycle Parking Requirements. vii. Clarify the Note Referencing “Open Space: N/A.” viii. Note the current Lot Coverage figures. ix. Provide the Dumpster calculations, as well as identifying the method of Trash collection. 14) Site Plan (C-301): a. Clearly mark pedestrian crossing points. b. Show where any Vacuum equipment is to be located, ensuring that such equipment does not conflict with the required minimum vehicle parking area of 9’x 18’. c. Include a note that no tree planting shall be closer than 10 feet from any utility lines. 15) Signs are subject to a separate Sign Permit Review and approval process in the City of Dover. 16) Any Erosion & Sediment Control Plans and Stormwater Management Plans granted approval by the Kent Conservation District must reflect the Site Plan layout and design conditionally approved by the Planning Commission and be in compliance with the Zoning Ordinance and 94

Item 6. S-23-05 Tidal Wave Auto Spa at 245 N. DuPont Highway DAC Report of February 8, 2023 Page 8 technical review requirements of other agencies. 17) The Final Plan set must include notes documenting any action taken by the Planning Commission on the requested waivers and must list any additional conditions of approval. IX. RECOMMENDATIONS SUGGESTED AS CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL TO MEET CODE OBJECTIVES: In accordance with the Zoning Ordinance, Article 10 §2.2, the Planning Commission in considering and acting upon Site Development Plans may prescribe appropriate conditions and safeguards so that the public health, safety, and welfare, the comfort and convenience of the public in general, and the residents of the immediate neighborhood in particular shall be taken into consideration. These safeguards may to the maximum extent possible further the expressed intent of the Zoning Ordinance and the accomplishment of several objectives in particular listed in subsections 2.21 to 2.28. 1) Sidewalks: Both sidewalks providing pedestrian access to the site from North DuPont Highway and White Oak Road facilitate pedestrian traffic into awkward, potentially dangerous vehicle-oriented infrastructure. The north sidewalk connection currently is shown to connect directly into the drive aisle where cars queue for the car Wash. This sidewalk does not provide access to the proposed building or other site features, but rather crosses the north drive aisle three (3) times before connecting to sidewalks connecting to the properties to the east. The Applicant should look to reorganize the layout to ensure that pedestrian crossings are minimized, and that they cross at the narrowest possible points and in a manner to ensure visibility is not impeded. Similarly, the south sidewalk connection off White Oak Road, connects onto the subject site at an awkward point where several vehicle pathways converge, and then offers no defined pathway further into the site. This southern sidewalk connection should be relocated to minimize interaction between pedestrians and vehicles. Both sidewalk connection should be laid out in a manner to convey pedestrians with as little interaction with vehicle traffic as possible. Sidewalk connections should also clearly identify connection point to the main building, parking spaces, and other such Site features. The Plans should also clearly mark these links by ensuring that pedestrian crossings are clearly marked at drive aisles. X. ADVISORY COMMENTS TO THE APPLICANT: 1) In the event that major changes and revisions to the Site Plan occur in the finalization of the Plan, contact the Planning Office. Examples include reorientation of the building, relocation of site components like stormwater management areas, and increases in floor area count. These changes may require resubmittal for review by the Development Advisory Committee, Planning Commission, or other agencies and commissions making recommendations regarding the plan. 2) If there are changes to the architecture, building footprint, layout or square footage of the 95

Item 6. S-23-05 Tidal Wave Auto Spa at 245 N. DuPont Highway DAC Report of February 8, 2023 Page 9 building contact the Planning Office. These changes may require review by the Planning Commission. 3) Other agencies and departments which participate in the Development Advisory Committee may provide additional comments related to their areas of expertise and code requirements. 4) Following Planning Commission approval of the Site Development Plan, the Plan must be revised to meet all conditions of approval from the Development Advisory Committee or as otherwise noted. This process involves submission of Check Prints in order to achieve Final Plan approval. 5) For building new construction, the requirements of the building code and the fire code must be complied with. Consult with the Chief Building Inspector and City of Dover Fire Marshal for these requirements. The resolution of these items may impact the site design including such items as building dimensions and height, building openings, and fire protection needs, etc. 6) The applicant/developer shall be aware that prior to any ground disturbing activities on the site the appropriate Site Plan approvals, Pre-Construction meetings, site inspections and permits are required. 7) Construction may have an effect on the adjacent property owners and visitors. Any work requiring the closing or rerouting of residents or visitors should be coordinated as to offer the least amount of inconvenience. 8) The applicant shall be aware that Plan approval does not represent a Sign Permit, nor does it convey permission to place any sign on the premises. Any proposed site or building identification sign may require a Sign Permit from the City of Dover prior to placement of any such sign in accordance with Zoning Ordinance Article 5 §4. 9) The applicant shall be aware that Plan approval does not represent a Building Permit and associated construction activity permits. A separate application process is required for issuance of a Building Permit from the City of Dover. 10) All businesses operating in the City of Dover are required to obtain a City of Dover Business Licenses from the Licensing and Permitting Division. If you have any questions or need to discuss any of the above comments, please call the above contact person and the Planning Department as soon as possible. 96

Consideration of Amendments to Map 13-2: Potential Land Use for Annexation Areas Map FILE#: MI-23-01A and B REVIEWING AGENCY: City of Dover Planning Office CONTACT PERSON: Dawn Melson-Williams, AICP PHONE#: 736-7196 I. PROCESS BACKGROUND: The 2019 Comprehensive Plan was recommended by Planning Commission and adopted by City Council on January 13, 2020 and certified that date as per letter of March 10, 2020 issued by Governor Carney. Since that time, the 2019 Comprehensive Plan was amended in 2021 following consideration of Application MI-21-01A, B, and C which specifically focused on a series of requests for changes to the Map 12-1: Land Development Plan. Additionally, as part of the 2021 Comprehensive Rezoning Project, there were additional amendments to Map 12-1: Land Development Plan Map and Table 12-1: Land Use and Zoning Matrix. As adopted, the 2019 Comprehensive Plan sets forth a process by which the Comprehensive Plan can be amended on an annual basis. Amendments to the Comprehensive Plan can be initiated by staff or requested by members of the public. The process to amend the Comprehensive Plan is detailed in the 2019 Comprehensive Plan, Chapter 15: Implementation, specifically on pages 15-10 thru 15-12 of the Plan. The Request requires submission of the following: a Comprehensive Plan Amendment Application, other appropriate application form and fee based on the request type, property information (drawing), an analysis of the surrounding land uses and zoning classifications, and a statement of how the Request is consistent with the goals of the Comprehensive Plan. For amendments to the Comprehensive Plan that involve rezoning of property, the requests are processed concurrently. Review of the Comprehensive Plan Amendment Requests begins with the PLUS Review Process. Next the Requests are reviewed through Development Advisory Committee Review as the next step in the Review Process leading to the Public Hearings and Review by the City of Dover Planning Commission and Dover City Council. Comprehensive Plan Amendments are adopted through adoption (approval) of an Ordinance. Submitted Requests for 2023 These Requests for Amendment of the 2019 Comprehensive Plan were submitted by the property owner as associated with the City of Dover’s annual opportunity to request 114

Applicant’s Submission: The following items were submitted by the applicant: property location information (maps), written analysis of surrounding land uses and zoning classifications, and a written statement on how the request is consistent with the goals of the Comprehensive Plan. Also submitted was a highlighted document of excerpts of the 2019 Comprehensive Plan (provided in packet). Map Exhibits: Planning Staff has provided copies of Map 13-1: Potential Annexation Areas and Map 13-2: Potential Land Use for Annexation Areas as adopted in the 2019 Comprehensive Plan. For each Comprehensive Plan Amendment Request, Staff has prepared Exhibit Maps showing the current and proposed Annexation Areas (excerpts of Map 13-1) and current and proposed Land Use Classifications (excerpts of Map 13-2). III. PROPERTY BACKGROUND The two subject properties consist of an unaddressed parcel (Property a, Parcel 49.00) located north of White Oak Road and the property addressed as 3015 White Oak Road (Property b, Parcel 48.00). These are located to the east of the incorporated limits of the City of Dover. They share a property boundary with the lands within the Garrison Oak Business and Technology 116

Item 7. MI-23-01A and B – Comprehensive Plan Amendments 2023: Amendments to Map 13-1 and Map 13-2 Lands of Calpine Holdings, LLC – Two Properties on White Oak Road DAC Report of February 8, 2023 Page 5 of 7 Center (previously known as Garrison Oak Technology Park). The northern subject parcel contains woodland areas while the southern parcel includes agricultural fields which have previously been under cultivation along White Oak Road. Contained on these properties are also wetland areas, a tax ditch network, a stream, and other drainage conveyances that cross the properties. The applicant has previously filed an application with Kent County for development of a solar panel array on 94.6 acres of the 246.96 acres (Conditional Use Site Plan Application CS-22-02 Calpine Kent County Solar Energy Center). The Application CS-22-02 is currently on hold as its consideration is tabled by Kent County Levy Court. IV. 2019 COMPREHENSIVE PLAN In the 2019 Comprehensive Plan, Chapter 13 – Growth and Annexation Plan outlines the annexation policy statements including benefits of annexation and annexation goals and policies. For lands considered for annexation, the Plan identifies distinct categories of annexation potential: Category 1 – High Priority Annexation Areas (enclaves); Category 2 – Priority Annexation Areas (0-10 years); Category 3 – Areas to Be considered for Long Term Annexation (5-10+ Years); and Areas of Concern. The Comprehensive Plan states that lands in the Areas of Concern are not intended for annexation (in the 10 year timeframe of the Plan), but the city has a vested interest in their future. Map 13-1: Potential Annexation Areas Plan Map depicts these areas in a colored coded format on a map. See also discussion of Annexation Plan Categories on pages 13-6 through 13-8. • The 2019 Comprehensive Plan depicts the subject area (two properties) as no identified Annexation Area and as an Area of Concern on Map 13-1. The Request is to revise the Annexation Plan Category for these two subject parcels near White Oak Road to Category 2. Designation as Category 2 – Priority Annexation Area would allow the City to consider annexation of the properties once the amendment process is complete. The second component of the Annexation Plan is the classification of Potential Land Uses for the Annexation Areas; see page 13-8 and Map 13-2: Potential Land Use for Annexation Areas. Map 13-2 depicts Land Use Classification for properties in the Annexation Areas of Category 1 and Category 2. The Land Use Classification is color coded on the map and utilizes the Land Use Classifications also found in the Land Development Plan (Chapter 12). The associated Table 12-1: Land Use and Zoning Matrix lists each Land Use Category and associated Zoning Districts. • With a change in the Annexation Plan Category of the subject parcels near White Oak Road to Category 2, then Potential Land Use Classifications are to be identified. The Request is to identify the Land Use Classification as Public & Private Utilities based on the intended use by the applicant. Regarding the Land Use Classification of Public & Private Utilities, this is discussed in Chapter 12 – Land Development Plan beginning on page 12-20. The general polices for and the statement on Public & Private Utilities are listed in the 2019 Comprehensive Plan excerpts presented as follows: 117

Item 7. MI-23-01A and B – Comprehensive Plan Amendments 2023: Amendments to Map 13-1 and Map 13-2 Lands of Calpine Holdings, LLC – Two Properties on White Oak Road DAC Report of February 8, 2023 Page 6 of 7 PUBLIC UTILITIES (Excerpt from 2019 Comprehensive Plan, page 12-20) Public Utilities include such systems as clean water, electricity production, and stormwater management as well as the removal of waste products. This makes the infrastructure that supports these activities vital to the well-being of the people who live, work, and play in the City of Dover. Similarly, the Comprehensive Plan must reflect the importance of continuing efforts to keep the maintenance and improvement of our Public Utilities infrastructure as a vital component of our plans moving forward. For the 2019 Comprehensive Plan, the City of Dover has created a new land use category of “Public and Private Utilities” to show the importance of dedicated land to facilitate the needs of day-to-day life in Dover. This land use category will be used where existing utility infrastructure is the primary use activity on the property. There is also the Source Water Protection Overlay Zone which notes where in the City the soils facilitate better than average reabsorption of groundwater. Assumptions: Public Utilities 1. The City will continue to be responsible for water, wastewater, electric and stormwater system, owning, operating and maintaining them for the benefit of residents, customers and businesses. 2. The City will plan for present and future needs as the City grows, assessing costs among users and development interests as meets the best interests of the public 3. The City will consistently strive to achieve and maintain full compliance with State and other regulatory requirements. Goal: Public Utilities Continue to maintain and improve/expand Dover’s Public Utilities in a manner that best facilitates the continued improvement in the quality of life for Dover’s residents. This will also better prepare the City of Dover for future expansion and growth. Policies: Public Utilities 1. Cooperate with other public and private providers to ensure system efficiency and capacity. 2. Actively assess emerging trends, technologies and regulatory schemes as these might impact the operation of the City’s utilities. Recommendations: Public Utilities The Land Development Plan reflects the existing locations of Public Utilities and private utility facilities. These encompass water, sewer, and electric system components such as water towers, pump stations, and electric substations. Examples of private utility facilities include the Dover Solar Park and the Garrison Energy Center. No enlargement of the land use area associated with Public Utilities is proposed at this time. 118

Item 7. MI-23-01A and B – Comprehensive Plan Amendments 2023: Amendments to Map 13-1 and Map 13-2 Lands of Calpine Holdings, LLC – Two Properties on White Oak Road DAC Report of February 8, 2023 Page 7 of 7 V. RECOMMENDATIONS OF THE PLANNING STAFF: The Planning Staff provides the following recommendations regarding the Comprehensive Plan Amendments 2023: MI-23-01A and MI-23-01B regarding the revision of the Annexation Plan Category and the designation of Land Use Classification. The applicant has requested a change in the Growth and Annexation Map of the 2019 Comprehensive Plan from an unidentified area and as an Area of Concern to Category 2 – Priority Annexation Area for the two properties. Following our review of the policies for Annexation in the 2019 Comprehensive Plan, as well as analysis of the surrounding land uses, proximity to City infrastructure, protection of natural resources, and economic development opportunities, Staff recommends approval of the Amendment A. The subject area is contiguous to lands within the city and in the vicinity of utility infrastructure along White Oak Road, Garrison Oak Drive and Long Point Road, in addition to being adjacent to the Garrison Oak Business and Technology Center. Additionally, the applicant has requested that the Potential Land Use Classification be identified for the two properties. The Land Use Classification of Public & Private Utilities appears to be consistent with nearby other electric generation facilities and the technology based development with the Garrison Oak Business and Technology Center. The proposed Land Use Category is compatible with the goals of the Comprehensive Plan associated with energy, green technology, and the development focus of the Garrison Business and Technology Center. Staff recommends approval of Amendment B. Planning Staff finds these requests in support of the overall set of goals established as a framework for the future of Dover in the 2019 Comprehensive Plan, Table 1-2: 2019 Comprehensive Plan Chapter Goals. (See attached.) This recommendation is being made without that benefit of hearing the comments of surrounding landowners and residents. A public hearing is required on this matter and the Planning Commission should give those comments consideration in addition to goals of the Comprehensive Plan. VI. ADVISORY COMMENTS 1) The Planning Staff notes the need for clarification of the size of the subject properties as there are differences in mapping of the parcel boundaries. A legal description of each parcel is required for the Annexation application. 2) The applicant shall be aware that approval of any Comprehensive Plan Amendment application does not represent Annexation approval or Site Development Plan approval. A separate review process is required for annexation; the applicant has made this application for annexation with AX-23-01. Also, a separate Site Development Plan must be submitted and approved if additional development activities are proposed on the property. 119

Item 7. Comp Plan Amendment Request Consistent with Green Energy/Environmental/Tech Park Economic Goals of Dover 2019/2020 Comprehensive Plan Applicant Calpine Holding’s request for a Comprehensive Plan amendment to permit annexation of its lands adjacent to the City of Dover Garrison Oak Business and Technology Center with the same IPM-2 Technology Park zoning is consistent with and supports the following referenced goals of the Dover Comp Plan (and see attached supportive excerpt pages from the Dover Comp Plan): The Application is consistent with the following Comp Plan Goals of the 2019/2020 Plan: • Solar Energy production will support Comp Plan Goals of Protecting the Natural Environment, Improving Air Quality and Encouraging Green Development and Sustainable Energy Practices • Solar Energy production will support the Comp Plan Goals of promoting forward-looking, environmentally conscious companies • Solar Energy production supports the Comp Plan Green Energy Goals • Solar Energy production adjacent to the existing Garrison Oak Business and Technology Center (GOBTC) with an identical IPM-2 Zoning supports the Comp Plan goals for GOBTC as a location for large Green industries • Solar Energy production by private industry supports the Comp Plan goal favoring the expansion of Private Energy producers in the City at the GOBTC • A large part of the proposed annexation area is already an “Area of Concern” that supports annexation into the City under the Comp Plan Excerpts from the City of Dover Comprehensive Plan are Attached which are supportive of the Applicants intended use as a Solar Energy production facility at this location immediately adjacent to land currently zoned for the same uses (IPM-2) 135

Item 7. Adjacent City of Dover Parcels Zoning Analysis The Applicant’s site is immediately adjacent to the City of Dover Garrison Oak Business and Technology Park which is zoned IPM-2 and which contains a Solar Energy facility as well as a Gas Turbine energy facility among other uses. The Applicant seeks the identical IPM-2 zoning so its adjoining property can install a Solar Energy facility as well. These adjacent uses will be completely compatible and desirable under a zoning analysis. The passive nature of the proposed Solar Energy use for the applicants property will also be compatible with the RM and R8 zoned City parcels that are located Southwest of the applicants property since the facility will generate no traffic, odors or sound. A map of these nearby City parcels and their respective zonings is attached to the application. 136

Item 7. Adopted – 1.13.2020 Chapter 1 Introduction Dover 2019 Comprehensive Plan for the progress of the City. Between 2003 and 2008 there were several amendments to the 2003 Comprehensive Plan Update such as text amendments to the Transportation Plan as well as Land Development Plan map updates. 2008 Dover Comprehensive Plan The 2008 Dover Comprehensive Plan sought to take the essential elements of the 2003 Plan Update and provide a more aggressive plan of action for the City. As in the 2003 Plan Update, citizen participation and public input regarding goals, recommendations and growth and annexation areas played a large part in the formation of the 2008 Plan. While many chapters remained consistent in subject, some chapters were expanded upon individually. With the increase in population within the City and the City providing essential services to more residents and businesses, as well as the expansion of the utility system, Public Utilities & Community Infrastructure Chapter was divided. Some information became the Public Utilities and Infrastructure Plan Chapter in order to address all infrastructure and utility system and services within Dover. Facilities and programs offered to residents became a part of the Community Services and Facilities Chapter. This chapter sought to address public safety, Parks & Recreation programs and services, and community services. Economic development was one of the most pressing issues in Dover. To this end, Economic Development became a new chapter developed by an Economic Development Task Force Committee. The Community Development component addressed in the 2003 Plan became a part of the Housing and Community Development Chapter in 2008. The 2008 Dover Comprehensive Plan used the information gathered and analyzed through public participation workshops, City Commissions and Council input and comprehensive history of the previous five years to set forth goals and recommendations. ACCOMPLISHMENTS SINCE 2008 As part of the efforts to develop the 2019 Comprehensive Plan project, Staff looked back over the last ten years (2008-2018) to document significant accomplishments that occurred in the City. A number of these items were outlined as Goals and Recommendations or Action Items in the 2008 Dover Comprehensive Plan. The following chart summarizes these Accomplishments by chapter topic. This summary can be viewed as a type of Report Card which allows us to best see how well we worked towards and achieved our goals, and where there is still room for improvement. Table 1-1: Accomplishments 2008-2018 (Report Card Items) Accomplishment 1: Updated Tree Planting and Preservation Ordinance of the Zoning Ordinance. Natural Resources and Accomplishment 2: Updated Environmental Protection section of the Zoning Ordinance, particularly with regards to floodplains and Environmental wetlands.

Item 7. Adopted – 1.13.2020 Chapter 2 Patterns of Change Dover 2019 Comprehensive Plan Chapter 2 PATTERNS OF CHANGE PAT T E R N S O F C H A N G E : L A N D U S E A N D D E V E L O P M E N T AC T I V I T Y APPLICATIONS FOR DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITY Over the period of 2008-2018, the number of plan review and approvals resulting in construction projects was somewhat slower than the previous five years (2003-2007) but it remains steady. Over 2.5 million square feet of nonresidential development was approved including several Master Plans outlining phased multi-year projects. Although the City only annexed 269.58 acres in the ten-year period, Dover remains the commercial and employment core of central Delaware. Institutional, office and retail land uses have dominated new development. Residential construction has seen increased focus on the build-out of previously platted subdivisions rather than applications for new subdivision development. The focus of residential development over the last ten years is the development of multi-family units (apartments). Retail and development have been concentrated along main transportation corridors, while residential development has been in several areas of the City. Institutional uses have expanded to keep pace with the demands of the growing City and Dover’s industrial base has continued to expand with numerous industrial park developments being constructed and enlarged. With the tracking of applications, the pace and type of development activity can be observed. Table 2-1 illustrates the number of applications submitted to the City for review between 2008 and 2018. This table, along with subsequent tables, shows the changes in development activity and uses throughout the City. In the previous six-year period (2002-2007), there were in total 703 applications. It is also noted that there were refinements to the application review process in 2011 (Ordinance #2011-14). These refinements simplified the Site Plan review processes allowing certain projects to complete Zoning Review as part of the Building Permit process when renovating an existing building. The building size and impervious area size that triggered Planning Commission review with a public hearing were also amended making some applications eligible for an Administrative Site Plan review process. 2019 Comprehensive Plan Adopted 1.13.2020 Page 2 - 1 142

Item 7. Adopted – 1.13.2020 Chapter 2 Patterns of Change Dover 2019 Comprehensive Plan uses have followed residential development along DE Route 8 in western Dover. In the recent few years, the Bay Road corridor also has been a focus of redevelopment activity. Additionally, the City is aware of the State policy of discouraging development on lands east of State Route 1 (with the exception of Garrison Oak Business and Technology Park). Governmental and institutional uses are extensive throughout central Dover including the State Capital Complex, Bayhealth Medical Center, and Wesley College. Major institutional uses outside the traditional core area include Delaware State University, Delaware Technical & Community College, Wilmington University Campus, Delaware Department of Transportation (DelDOT) administrative campus (Danner Campus), and Kent County Levy Court administrative building. Major industrial uses lie along the railroad line within the south-central planning region and north of Dover Air Force Base. Industrial land uses occupy a small percentage of total area. There are several large industrial complexes including KraftHeinz Foods, Energizer (Playtex Products), former Playtex Apparel facility, Enterprise Business Park, Proctor & Gamble, the Kent County Aeropark, and locations along Horsepond Road and Lafferty Lane. Numerous vacant developable tracts of land exist within the City limits and are distributed throughout the urbanized area. Peripheral areas within and bordering the City are rapidly beginning to develop to the north and west, while the eastern areas of the City have remained predominantly commercial west of State Route 1 and agricultural east of State Route 1, except for two residential subdivisions near the State Route 1 and Route 8 interchange. The southern area of Dover is largely suburban, consisting of numerous single-family neighborhoods. Residential Development Residential development over the past ten years has been characterized by the continued construction to build-out earlier subdivisions (pre-2008 applications), the development of multi- family (apartment) complexes, and the renovation of existing multi-family (apartment) complexes. Residential development has not kept pace with the growing commercial sector likely due to lower development costs and alternative housing selection options beyond City limits. The City has reviewed a limited number of subdivision approvals either in the design or final plan process since 2008. The focus in the planning period was the development review of multi-family apartment complexes. These included Leander Lakes Apartments, The Arbors, Tall Pines, Dove View (The Grande) Apartments Planned Neighborhood Design: Senior Citizen Housing Option (PND: SCHO), Luther Village III Planned Neighborhood Design: Senior Citizen Housing Option (PND: SCHO), and Blue Hen Apartments. There were also several existing multi-family complexes that were reviewed for redevelopment activities: Walker Woods (Village at McKee Branch); Liberty Court; and Whatcoat Apartments (Preserve at Whatcoat). Table 2-5 shows the number of single-family lots and multi-family units approved from 2008 to 2018 in comparison to totals from 2003 to 2007. 2019 Comprehensive Plan Adopted 1.13.2020 Page 2 - 5 143

Item 7. Adopted – 1.13.2020 Chapter 5 Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Dover 2019 Comprehensive Plan Emissions from automobile sources are more difficult for the City to influence. In some ways, the hard work has already been done by others. For instance, fuel and engine technologies have improved over decades in response to pressure from EPA regulations, so that according to the EPA new cars made today are well over 90% cleaner than ones made in 1970. Efficiency gains can only reduce emissions so much, however, especially with the number of cars on the road increasing during that same time. The City has several strategies for checking the growth of auto use in Dover, primarily by providing transportation alternatives and ensuring Dover’s residents have ample opportunity to use them. x The Land Development Plan encourages mixed-use development in Downtown Dover and provides for various well integrated residential and employment centers throughout the City. Additional housing options with Mixed Use areas will promote the desirability of living near work. See Chapter 12 – Land Development Plan for more information. x Opportunities for increased use of public transportation are supported. x Numerous bicycle and pedestrian improvements are being suggested and implemented by DelDOT, the Dover/Kent County MPO and the City; and a major strategy of this plan is to encourage interconnections to provide a continuous bicycle and pedestrian transportation system. x This Plan contains an Economic Development Chapter which seeks to attract business and industry to Dover. More employment opportunities may lead to more people living and working in the same community. Employees who live and work in Dover may find commuting by transit, bicycle or as pedestrians to be viable options. See Chapter 10 – Economic Development for more information. The City recognizes that most residents will still use cars despite transportation alternatives being available. Therefore, in addition to the above, the City also supports the development of new automotive technologies which will further reduce auto emissions. The most significant development on the horizon is efficient and affordable electric vehicles. A potentially massive increase in the number of electric vehicles on the road is likely to occur within this Plan’s timeframe. Discussion of how the City can adapt to this coming trend can be found in the Chapter 9 - Transportation and the Chapter 7 - Utilities. Water Quality and Total Maximum Daily Loads Dover is located within the St. Jones River, Leipsic River, and Little Creek Watersheds which are impaired according to Section 303(d) of the Clean Water Act. Under Section 303(d) of the Federal Clean Water Act, states are required to identify all impaired waters and establish total maximum daily loads to restore their beneficial uses (e.g., swimming, fishing, and drinking water). A TMDL (Total Maximum Daily Load) defines the amount of a given pollutant that may be discharged to a water body from point, nonpoint, and natural background sources and still allow for attainment or maintenance of the applicable narrative and numerical water quality standards. A TMDL is the sum of the individual Waste Load Applications (WLAs) for point sources and Load Allocations (LAs) for nonpoint sources and natural background sources of pollution. A TMDL may include a reasonable margin of safety (MOS) to account for uncertainties regarding the relationship between mass loading and resulting water quality. In short, a TMDL matches the strength, location and timing of pollution sources within a watershed with the inherent ability of the receiving water to assimilate the pollutant without adverse impact.

Adopted – 1.13.2020 Chapter 5 Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Dover 2019 Comprehensive Plan accommodations for small solar and wind energy systems in the Zoning Ordinance (Article 5, Section 20). These provisions allow homeowners and businesses to install their own power systems, which in turn generate clean on-site energy to reduce the amount of electricity they must buy from the power grid. The City has decided to retire the McKee Run Generation Station effective May 31, 2021. The VanSant Generating Station will likely run for the foreseeable future; however, it is rarely used, even when the demand is high. As the City plans for electric supply in the future, renewable resources, principally solar from large scale facilities, are becoming more financially attractive which will benefit both the environment and ratepayers Reducing overall energy consumption is another route to reducing the climate change impact caused by the City’s power demand. This can be done in many ways; one example is reducing the energy consumption of buildings by improving the efficiency of their heating systems. The Delaware Weatherization Assistance Program helps homeowners burdened by utility bills reduce the amount of heat escaping their homes by adding insulation, patching cracks, and fixing ventilation. Because less heat escapes, the homes’ systems do not have to work as hard to heat the homes, and so consume less energy. There are other programs available that help residents and businesses improve the energy efficiency of their buildings. DNREC’s Energy Efficiency Investment Fund, for instance, provides grants to businesses that either follow a prescribed path or come up with their own innovative way to reduce their energy consumption. Finally, the City can reduce its contribution from industrial sources by working to attract manufacturing and technology companies that are committed to the practice of green industry. The City previously demonstrated its commitment to attracting such industry by developing the Garrison Oak Business and Technology Center, which contains fifteen large, shovel-ready lots (four now developed) ideal for technology firms. In 2019, the City renewed its marketing efforts for the Park in hopes of attracting buyers for the remaining lots. Focusing the City’s economic development efforts on green manufacturing and technology firms will help ensure the demand for new industry within the City is fulfilled by forward-looking, environmentally conscious companies instead of those merely practicing “business as usual.” Page 5-14 – 2019 Comprehensive Plan Adopted 1.13.2020 145

Item 7. Adopted – 1.13.2020 Chapter 5 Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Dover 2019 Comprehensive Plan x Evaluate the City’s Performance Standards and the lists of permitted and prohibited uses in the City’s industrial zones for possible code updates to ensure the City is both friendly to industrial development and up to date with air quality standards. Goal 4: Encourage Green Development and Sustainable Energy Practices Use code amendments and/or policy amendments and revisions to encourage environmentally sensitive development and allow emerging green trends to be easily established and grown in the City. Recommendation 8: Research and Implement Sustainable Development Practices x Conduct a “vulnerability assessment” of the City to determine which people and places within Dover are most at-risk from climate change pressures including sea-level rise, increased heavy precipitation, and rising temperatures. This assessment can be used to help the City decide what forms of sustainable development practices need the most encouragement. x Evaluate ways to incentivize use of green practices in new development. Some green development practices include infill development, higher densities in areas with access to transit, and green building construction techniques. x Evaluate ways to incentivize improvements to the energy performance of existing buildings. Energy performance improvements can come from adding insulation to reduce dependence on heating and cooling systems, installing energy-efficient appliances, and other changes. x Catalog existing green development and green energy incentives offered by the State and federal governments and other sources and evaluate ways Dover can leverage these incentives. Goal 5: Preserve Access to Open Space and Scenic Resources Protect open spaces and scenic resources in the City while also preserving reasonable public access. While protected open spaces can in turn protect developed areas by absorbing the most direct impacts of climate change, open spaces and scenic resources also have value for their health and recreation benefits to residents and visitors. Recommendation 9: Support City Policies Allowing Public Access and Utilization of Open Space and Scenic Resources x Evaluate the Dover Code of Ordinances and other legislation to identify provisions that potentially limit public access to nature (e.g. parking requirements, use restrictions, fencing and screening requirements, etc.). x Determine what valuable open spaces and scenic resources in the City currently have limited public access and evaluate options for improving access to these areas. x Improve pedestrian, bicycle, and transit networks to parks, natural areas, and the Historic District. x Support programs that promote access to nature (e.g. environmental education programs, Scouts programs). 2019 Comprehensive Plan Adopted 1.13.2020 Page 5-17 146

Item 7. Adopted – 1.13.2020 Chapter 7 Public Utilities and Infrastructure Dover 2019 Comprehensive Plan Chapter 7 PUBLIC UTILITIES and INFRASTRUCTURE PLAN P U B L I C U T IL I T IES AN D IN F R AS T RU C T U R E Water, wastewater, and energy and their infrastructure play important roles in keeping the public healthy. Water quality requirements like source protection and chlorination exist to prevent contamination of our water supplies and ensure its quality for drinking and other uses. Energy powers our homes, workplaces, schools, hospitals and other critical facilities keeping us safe and healthy. However, certain energy sources (i.e. fossil fuels, coal) also contribute significantly to air pollution and other environmental impacts that have a negative impact on public health. The City of Dover is a full-service utility provider offering electric, water and wastewater services within and beyond the City limits. Additionally, the City owns and manages a storm sewer system that collects and conveys stormwater runoff from City streets to surface waters or stormwater management facilities. WATER UTILITY The City of Dover’s water system began operations in 1882 with an initial system of 13,000 linear feet of pipe and one well. Since its inception, the water utility has grown to include more than 226 miles of pipe and twenty-one (21) wells. Like other areas of Delaware south of the Chesapeake and Delaware Canal, the City of Dover relies entirely on groundwater for its water supply. The City is a regional water supplier, supplying water to customers within and beyond the City limits. The City’s system includes interconnection with neighboring systems as well. Currently, the City’s water utility includes approximately 13,000 metered connections. In addition to the metered connections, the City’s water system provides fire protection citywide through a system of fire hydrants. The water system operates as an enterprise fund with operation, maintenance and capital costs supported through user fees. The City of Dover’s water system is supplied by 15 deep wells and 6 shallow wells drawing potable water from three aquifers. The deep wells draw from the Cheswold aquifer and Piney Point aquifer, while the shallow wells draw from the Columbia aquifer. These wells draw an average of 4.7 million gallons of water each day. During summer months, water usage has peaked as high as 9 million gallons per day. The Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Control (DNREC) has permitted the City to draw as many as 11.043 million gallons of water per day from 2019 Comprehensive Plan Adopted 1.13.2020 Page 7 - 1 147

Item 7. Adopted -1.13.2020 Chapter 7 Public Utilities and Infrastructure Dover 2019 Comprehensive Plan Managing Inflow and Infiltration Inflow of stormwater and infiltration of groundwater into the City’s wastewater collection and transmission system has become an issue as the City’s sewer infrastructure ages. Cracks in the sanitary sewer pipes allow for both stormwater and groundwater to infiltrate. Additionally, in older areas of the City, many sump pump systems and rain gutters discharge directly to the sanitary sewer system. This additional flow places significant stress on Kent County’s wastewater treatment system by increasing the City’s flow to the wastewater treatment plant. It also costs the rate payers within the City of Dover in that the City must pay for all wastewater that is transmitted to the County for treatment, regardless of its source. In response to the issues of inflow and infiltration of stormwater and groundwater into the City’s sanitary sewer system, the City has developed a plan to identify sources of inflow and infiltration and to remove these sources from the system which includes replacing and/or relining aging sewer mains. Electricity and Energy Consumption The City of Dover is seeking to recognize a number of Green Energy Goals to reduce overall consumption where possible to better utilize existing capacity. Currently, there are several solar energy projects that have been authorized in the City’s service area including 337 residential solar installations with a capacity of 3.58 MW and 27 commercial installations with a capacity of 1.98 MW. A number of geothermal units have also been authorized by staff. The City is in the process of evaluating a number of alternative proposals for long-term power generation.

Item 7. Adopted – 1.13.2020 Chapter 7 Public Utilities and Infrastructure Dover 2019 Comprehensive Plan UTILITIES Goal 1: Proactively Maintain Existing Infrastructure and Expand Infrastructure When Beneficial Continue to place highest priority on maintaining existing utilities and community infrastructure, so that reliable service can continue to be provided to the existing community, and in the best interest of the community’s health and well-being. This includes the City’s Water, Wastewater (Sewer) and Electric Utilities which help maintain the daily functioning of the City. Recommendation 1: Update Utility Plans Regularly x Dover water, sewer and electric will have their long-range plans updated every ten to fifteen years and integrated into a Consolidated Utility Plan for the City of Dover. x Planned update to the Water Utility Plan by 2021, as it was last updated in 2006. x Planned update to the Wastewater Utility Plan by 2021, as it was last updated in 2009. x Planned update to the Electric Utility Plan by 2026, as it was last updated in 2016. x Planned update to the Stormwater Utility Plan in 10-year increments following implementation by City Council. Recommendation 2: Continue to Seek Mutually Beneficial Interconnections with Utility Systems x Analyze the ability of the City to sell water to Tidewater Utilities, the Camden-Wyoming Sewer and Water Authority and other neighboring water providers, for both domestic and fire protection use, within the current infrastructure capacity and allocation permit limits. Conversely, analyze the ability of neighboring water providers, in terms of both capacity and allocation, to allow the City to draw water in times of need. x Continue to work with Kent County with which the City’s wastewater system is interconnected to treat the City’s wastewater at the Kent County Regional Resource Recovery Facility in Frederica. x Continue to work with the City’s power supply and generation partners in managing the City’s energy production, as well as maintaining connections with the regional transmission and distribution system. Recommendation 3: Implement a Plan to Identify and Remove Sources of Inflow and Infiltration x Prepare projects to reline or replace old sewer mains to reduce and/or eliminate inflow and infiltration. x Work with property owners to remove catch basin, sump pump and other illicit connections to the sanitary sewer system that have been identified by field investigations or smoke testing. 2019 Comprehensive Plan Adopted 1.13.2020 Page 7 - 11 149

Item 7. Adopted -1.13.2020 Chapter 7 Public Utilities and Infrastructure Dover 2019 Comprehensive Plan Recommendation 4: Prepare and Implement Utility Systems Service Plans for future Annexation Areas x Study identified areas of potential future annexation into the City and prepare utility service plans to provide all essential City utilities and community services. Recommendation 5: Prepare a Long-term Strategy to Implement Capital Improvements that will be Most Impactful to the City and its Residents x Continue to identify key areas of Improvement for the City’s Water, Wastewater (Sewer), and Electric Utility Systems and layout a long-term strategy to implement projects to improve them. Goal 2: Enhance Infrastructure to Meet Community Needs Enhance public utilities and infrastructure where studies indicate that community services standards are not being met. Recommendation 6: Continue to Implement Plans to Improve Water Quality x Continue the commitment to implementing the water system improvements that will improve the water quality concerns and resolve “brown water” issues. x Continue to implement necessary improvements at City’s Water Treatment Plant and associated water system infrastructure. Recommendation 7: Continue to Implement Plans to Improve Wastewater Systems x Continue to implement the City’s long-term Capital Improvements Plan by investing in wastewater system facilities like new Pump Stations, Force Mains and Collection Systems. Recommendation 8: Identify and Pursue Options for Long-term, Reliable, Cost Competitive, and Environmentally Prudent Electricity for our Customers x Identify ways the City of Dover Electric Department can improve management of Electric infrastructure including long-term supply and capacity. x Continue to implement the City’s long-term Capital Improvements Plan with things like Substation Improvements, Transmission System Upgrades, Distribution System Upgrades, and Generation/Production Facility Improvements. x Continue to implement Green Energy Goals including utilizing energy sources like Solar. This will help reduce overall consumption where possible, allowing us to more efficiently utilize existing capacity. Recommendation 9: Ensure the City has the Infrastructure and Capacity to Accommodate Evolving Technologies x Ensure that the City has the capacity to accommodate the demand for new technologies like at-home and public charging stations and to anticipate the growing use of new modes of transportation like electric cars. This should be done in a manner that mitigates the impact on the electric distribution system. x Ensure that the City has a plan/policy in place to address and accommodate the infrastructure needed for new communication technology like 5G telecommunications.

Item 7. Adopted – 1.13.2020 Chapter 9 Transportation Plan Dover 2019 Comprehensive Plan COMPLETED AND PLANNED PROJECTS Since 2008 there have been a number of significant transportation improvements in Dover that have served to implement the Comprehensive Plan. Likewise, a number of studies have been completed that have furthered the goals of the Plan. These accomplishments are summarized in the “Completed Projects” section below. Completed Projects The following improvements have been accomplished in Dover or for specific areas within the City since 2008: x Constructed the new Dover Transit Center x Constructed POW-MIA Parkway (formerly known as the West Dover Connector) x Improved the intersection of West Street and North Street x Reconstructed North Street east of the railroad x Developed the 2015 Division Street/Forest Street Dover Capital Gateway Plan and Design Book x Implemented portions of the Delaware Route 8 Concept Plan and Operations Study x Adopted the 2015 Bicycle Plan and 2015 Pedestrian Plan x Installed sidewalks and pedestrian crossings along portions of Route 13 x Completed the key segments of the Senator Bikeway, Capital Trail and other bike and pedestrian plans x Implemented sidewalk and pedestrian crossing (HAWK signal) on Forrest Avenue for Dover High School Prioritized Projects Each year the City is requested to provide a list of transportation improvements to the Secretary of Transportation and the Dover/Kent County MPO that it wishes to see considered by these bodies in developing the DelDOT Project Prioritization Process and the MPO’s Transportation Improvement Program. Not all of the City’s recommendations are ultimately included in these documents nor do their priority necessarily match. In Fall 2019, the City of Dover City Council prioritized (dated September 24, 2019) a series of projects for inclusion into the State of Delaware’s six-year Capital Transportation Program. This prioritization was later revised by City Council in early December 2019. The following listing is the series of transportation improvement projects prioritized by City Council as of December 9, 2019: Garrison Oak Connector Road Garrison Oak Business and Technology Center (GOBTC) is a 385-acre tract zoned IPM-2 (Industrial Park Manufacturing Zone – Business and Technology Center) and is the only site in the City to be zoned as such. It has been identified by the City as an ideal location for large technology/green industry firms. Dover City Council desires that DelDOT provide a direct access to State Route 1 via a connector road to White Oak Road. While the State discourages growth east of State Route 1, this tract is acknowledged by both the City of Dover and the State of Delaware as the only large-scale developable land east of State Route 1 in the City of Dover.

Item 7. Adopted – 1.13.2020 Chapter 10 Economic Development Plan Dover 2019 Comprehensive Plan annual Firefly Music Festival, bring a significant number of visitors and tourism dollars into Dover and the State of Delaware In addition to these major commercial firms, several larger retail establishments make their home along the US Route 13 commercial corridor including Sam’s Club, Home Goods, Best Buy, Burlington, Kohl’s, Target, and other retail leaders, and auto dealerships. In addition, large-scale hardware and home improvement warehouse stores are represented including Lowe’s and Home Depot. The corridor also hosts dozens of restaurants as well as a diverse mix of specialty businesses. Several older commercial sites are undergoing redevelopment into attractive groups of retail spaces indicating the fundamental strength of this corridor. The City supports these initiatives. A second commercial corridor has become increasingly defined in Dover along Route 8 (Forest Street and Forrest Avenue) in the western section of the City. This commercial area hosts a mixture of shopping complexes, supermarkets, and neighborhood businesses that provide specialty services and products that draw consumers from the City and immediate area. Implementation of the Corridor Overlay Zone, a zoning overlay adopted in the early 1990s, has altered the appearance of the Route 8 commercial corridor by keeping the buildings closer to the road to maintain the small town, pedestrian accessible atmosphere, rather than the conventional commercial strip. Recent development along this corridor has included the new Dover High School and multi-family residential units. In 2005, Eden Hill Farm was initiated as a Traditional Neighborhood Design (TND) consisting of a Residential District, a Professional Office, Medical & Financial district, and a Neighborhood Commercial District with a focus on emerging medical and retail sectors. The Eden Hill Farm TND is being developed in accordance with a General Overall Master Plan and Comprehensive Design Standards Manual (Pattern Book) to create a unique mixed neighborhood. The Eden Hill Medical Center opened to the public in fall 2008 and has experienced expansion with the adjacent Center at Eden Hill, a state-of-the art rehabilitation facility. Nearby, in the Neighborhood Commercial District is a medical office facility operated by Nemours DuPont Pediatrics. Construction of the first housing units in the residential portion of Eden Hill also began in Fall 2008 and currently consists of 83 duplexes and townhouses. The economic downturn in 2008 stalled much of the residential and commercial construction, and recovery has been slow, but interest in both commercial and residential uses has now resumed. Garrison Oak Technical Park (now Garrison Oak Business and Technology Center) The Garrison Oak Tract was purchased by the City, with funding from the State, in 1999 and zoned as IPM-2 (Industrial Park Manufacturing Zone – Business and Technology Center). The site was funded through the State’s FY 2000 Bond Bill, which included epilogue language specifying that the site be used as a “high technology industrial park.” Its location on White Oak Road with potential access to State Route 1 has been identified by Dover and the State as a “potential location to promote economic activity.” Recently renamed as the Garrison Oak Business and Technology Center (GOBTC), this business park encompasses nearly 400 acres of land. Garrison Oak is an ideal location for large technological/green industry firms that require lot sizes of over 10 acres. The City has taken actions to make the site “shovel-ready” including the creation of a Subdivision Plan, road Page 10 - 6 – 2019 Comprehensive Plan Adopted 1.13.2020 152

Item 7. Adopted – 1.13.2020 Chapter 10 Economic Development Plan Dover 2019 Comprehensive Plan improvements within the site, and installation of infrastructure improvements to bring basic utilities to the site parcels. It is estimated that, once developed, the site would generate approximately 1,900 permanent jobs. GOBTC is currently home to the Dover Sun Park (solar facility), Garrison Energy Center’s 309-megawatt electric generation facility, Uzin Utz (flooring technology), and Advantech /Protective Services (a security systems provider). Civil Air Terminal and Kent County Aeropark Two facilities adjacent to Dover Air Force Base (DAFB) offer an unusual opportunity to develop an aviation and aeronautics focused employment center. The Civil Air Terminal (CAT) is located within the City limits and directly abuts DAFB. The Kent County Aeropark lies just west of the CAT. DelDOT owns the existing CAT and leases it to the Delaware River and Bay Authority for operations. The operations are sanctioned and governed by a Joint Use Agreement with the United States Air Force (USAF); that agreement is in negotiations to extend it for another 50 years. At present, the primary use of the CAT is to service occasional civilian charter aircraft and NASCAR race related aircraft and passenger services for the twice-yearly races. The existing Civil Air Terminal site consists of twenty acres including an 870 ft. x 325 ft. aircraft parking apron, a single taxiway connecting to the DAFB Taxiway B, and a 1,650+/- SF single story terminal with an accessory building, parking and fuel storage. In the Kent County Aeropark, immediately next to the Civil Air Terminal, are 13.2 undeveloped acres of a larger 117 +/- acre business park owned and developed by Kent County. The CAT and the four undeveloped parcels of the KCAP together comprise 33.3 acres. These are proposed to be to be rezoned as part of a comprehensive rezoning process to Industrial Park Manufacturing Zone - IPM3 (Industrial Aviation and Aeronautics Center) for industrial uses associated with aviation and aeronautics. The combined site is part of a County-designated employment center and will be marketed for aircraft maintenance, repair and operations; cargo/distribution terminal; aviation training; recreational aircraft terminal; aircraft manufacturing and civilian air cargo carrier temporary parking. The site will be marketed as the Central Delaware Aviation Complex to reflect its new focus. CONTRIBTING ECONOMIC COMPONENTS Tourism Industry Since the 2003 and 2008 Comprehensive Plans, the City has seen significant growth in the hotel sector with 22 hotels now within City limits. This sector is poised for continued growth due in part to the construction of the DE Turf, a multi-court field sports facility located south of Dover near Frederica which opened in 2017. DE Turf will bring considerable interest in accommodations, restaurants and other facilities to serve these visitors as it hosts numerous large tournaments. This contributes considerably to Dover’s economic stability and identity. Historic, cultural and natural resources such as the City's Historic District, parks, waterways and open space, and museums draw thousands of visitors yearly. The City continues to serve as a central location in Delaware that draws tourist and tourism dollars from both the region and nation. 2019 Comprehensive Plan Adopted 1.13.2020 Page 10 - 7 153

Item 7. Adopted – 1.13.2020 Chapter 10 Economic Development Plan Dover 2019 Comprehensive Plan x Downtown Dover Revitalization x Marketing Garrison Oak x Addressing and designating priority Industrial/Commercial Zones x Promoting Green Technology x Improving infrastructure, attractions, and events to increase tourism x Diversifying Dover’s economy by recruiting new industries that use a skilled work force in addition to adding to the current workforce x Strategic marketing to position Dover as a meetings and leisure travel destination x Retaining current employment base and assisting existing businesses and industry in become more successful x Strengthening economic development partnerships. x Improving general economic conditions (jobs, income, access, etc.) x Promoting healthcare as a major component of the economy x Recognizing the role of higher education to Dover’s economy x Creation of more skilled labor and trade jobs x Promoting tourism Since 2008, several initiatives have been undertaken to strengthen Dover’s economy and focus on growth opportunities, both Downtown and throughout the community. These are described below. Creation of the Downtown Dover Par tnership (DDP) Following the Dover: Downtown Economic Enhancement Strategy 2006 study, a consolidated organization called the Downtown Dover Partnership, (DDP) was established. The Partnership provides stronger leadership and better coordination of activities related to downtown revitalization. Working closely with the City and other Downtown partners, the DDP has focused attention on safety, parking, aesthetics, marketing and reducing vacancy. The DDP’s mission statement reads: “Promote the public welfare of the residents of the City of Dover, Delaware by promoting and furthering in any way, the development of the economic, cultural, and historic resources of the downtown area of the City of Dover, and to provide for the residents, to the extent that the common good and general welfare of the community is served.” The Partnership’s goal is to improve the opportunities for job creation, broaden the tax base through the development of the commercial and residential potential of the Central Dover area, and to maintain and restore the historic architectural and community qualities of the Downtown area consistent with the goals of the National Main Street Program. Restoring Central Dover Plan for the Downtown – 2013 (RCD Plan) The most thorough and recent planning initiative for the Downtown is represented by the 2013 Restoring Central Dover Plan. This comprehensive, community redevelopment effort was led by the National Council on Agricultural Life and Labor (NCALL) with strong support from the CenDel Foundation/Greater Kent Committee, the Dover Interfaith Mission for Housing, and the City of Dover. Intended to address the high-priority needs of low-income Central Dover residents with the goal of achieving long-term benefits by way of affordable housing, neighborhood safety and desirability, opportunities for economic growth, and essential services for children and families, the Restoring Central Dover Plan focused on incremental strategies founded on the idea that revitalization is about reinvesting in both people and place. Its goals were to: bring resources Page 10 - 14 – 2019 Comprehensive Plan Adopted 1.13.2020 154

Item 7. Adopted – 1.13.2020 Chapter 10 Economic Development Plan Dover 2019 Comprehensive Plan Goal 4: Ensure that Land Development, Zoning, Infrastructure and Other Development Requirements Encourage the Economic Development and Uses Desired Sound economic development and redevelopment is a balance between business opportunities and those regulations and processes designed to promote safe, well-designed, well-planned communities. The intent is to strike that balance between the proper exercise of public policy and a sustainable and viable economy. Recommendation 10: Review and Modify Regulations to ensure that Desired Uses Are Encouraged x Be flexible with contemporary zoning provisions that are responsive to emerging technologies and emerging business opportunities and activities, especially in the health care, arts and entertainment, and tourism sectors. x Implement appropriate zoning and other provisions that support development and expansion of targeted businesses, ensure the appropriateness of uses within respective zones, promote sustainability, encourage balanced growth, promote small businesses and startups, and ensure responsiveness to emerging economic and societal trends. x Update provisions addressing the growing variety and complexity of home occupations and accessory business activities in residential areas as the line defining traditional work evolves. x Actively pursue development of ordinances, policies and strategies to address blight, vacancy, abandonment, environmental contamination, and underutilization of business sites and facilities throughout the City. Goal 5: Actively market the Garrison Oak Business and Technology Center (GOBTC) Garrison Oak Business and Technology Center (GOBTC) is a City-developed business-ready facility in the City well-suited for larger and technology focused enterprises to help balance the City’s options for economic development and job creation. Capitalize on the GOBTC’s broad appeal to a larger universe of potential business activities consistent with the original intent of the facility and with the IPM2 zoning district. Recommendation 11: Develop a Strategic Marketing Plan for Garrison Oak (GOBTC) x Work with the Kent Economic Partnership and the State to effectively market the Garrison Oak Business and Technology Center. x Urge DelDOT and the Dover/Kent MPO to undertake planning and design for a dedicated connector from State Route 1 to the Center to improve access and marketability. x Explore the potential of the Garrison Oak Business and Technology Center for designation as a foreign trade zone. 2019 Comprehensive Plan Adopted 1.13.2020 Page 10 - 25 155

Item 7. Adopted – 1.13.2020 Chapter 12 Land Development Plan Dover 2019 Comprehensive Plan transportation infrastructure and mass transit services. Areas identified as Medium Density Residential can be looked at as potential receiving areas under a transfer of development rights program. Areas in the northern portion of the City are appropriate for Residential Medium Density development. North Side Neighborhood: Residential Medium Density The northwestern residential area of City includes the area that is to the north of College Road. This area consists of primarily Medium Density Residential developments such as Emerald Point, The Meadows and Mill Creek. There are also plotted subdivisions that have yet to start construction. Maidstone, Stonebrook East Planned Neighborhood District (PND), and Stonebrook West Planned Neighborhood District (PND) were approved by Planning Commission in 2005 and 2007 to construct a variety of mixed of housing types. White Oak Road Area: Residential Medium Density The Land Development Plan recommends that an area east of State Route 1 on White Oak Road be developed as Residential Medium Density. Bay Village who owns this property zoned RM-2 (Residential Medium Density Zone) could potentially develop it in an environmentally sustainable manner to provide workforce quality housing. While previously there was concern that development of this area could be a “domino” leading to additional development of land east of State Route 1, the State’s purchase of development rights in the area has reduced this concern. Additionally, the site’s location across from Garrison Oak Business and Technology Center makes it a good location for workforce housing. If there is residential development on the Lands of Bay Village, the City shall ensure that the development of the Bay Village site proceeds as a master planned community with transit access and bicycle and pedestrian amenities both within the site and connecting with Garrison Oak Business and Technology Center and other areas to the west. Additionally, the City must ensure that the viability of Garrison Oak Business and Technology Center is protected by requiring that the phasing and design of development on the site minimizes any potential conflicts between the residential and industrial uses and include buffering from the industrial area. West Side Neighborhood: Residential Medium Density Residential Medium Density development on the West Side tends to be located to the periphery of the area where both existing development, ongoing development and vacant lands are found. These areas are buffered by older residential areas and public/institutional uses but could be impacted by traffic and circulation concerns driven by commercial activities along the two major roadways, Route 8/Forest Avenue and McKee/Scarborough Road. Existing mix of housing types such as in the Village of Westover Planned Neighborhood Design (PND) and Village of Cannon Mill Planned Neighborhood Design (PND) are nearing the end of construction in those developments. A newer development, Chestnut Grove Farms has started construction and will build a variety of single-family detached homes, duplexes, and townhouses. East Dover Neighborhood: Residential Medium Density The East Dover Neighborhood essentially consists of developed in older established developments such as Towne Point, White Oak Farms, Baytree, Edgehill, and Schoolview.

Item 7. Adopted – 1.13.2020 Chapter 12 Land Development Plan Dover 2019 Comprehensive Plan aspirations and expectations of its industrial and manufacturing community to support the vitality of these precious resources. 2. A healthy and well-rounded local economy will depend upon diversity in business and employment opportunities. 3. Opportunities exist to build on Dover’s regional proximity for warehousing and distribution and its access to Dover Air Force Base (DAFB) for expansion of civilian air transportation and aviation related manufacturing, service and repair functions. Goal: Employment Centers Create a more vibrant, growing economy with a broader range of job opportunities through collaborative efforts to market the region, identify potential targets, and respond to opportunities to foster an increase in office and industrial development in appropriate and designated areas. Policies: Employment Centers 1. Protect existing industrial, office park and manufacturing establishments from encroachment by incompatible land uses which could result in nuisance complaints, hazardous situations, and human conflict. 2. Provide sufficient land area for industrial purposes to enable the expansion of existing industries, the establishments of new facilities, and revitalization of underutilized older industrial sites. 3. Provide for a variety of office park and industrial development opportunities through the designation of areas for small, medium and large establishments within planned industrial parks. 4. Promote alternative modes of accessibility including pedestrian and bicycle facilities, bus shelters and transit stops, and provide incentives for car and van pooling of employees. 5. Create flexible and contemporary industrial zoning provisions that reflect emerging trends in uses, facilities, and business opportunities to meet future needs. Recommendations: Employment Centers The City is committed to fostering a strong, vibrant, and balanced local economy built on existing and new business locations. This initiative requires close coordination with state and county economic development entities. It also requires continuous attention to the needs of existing businesses, efforts to promote a skilled workforce, a comprehensive marketing and promotional strategy, and land use and development regulations that are efficient and contemporary. The Comprehensive Plan designates areas throughout the City where job growth and opportunities are encouraged. Plan Chapter 10 – Economic Development lays out a set of goals and actions designed to reinforce this commitment. 2019 Comprehensive Plan Adopted 1.13.2020 Page 12 - 17 157

Item 7. Adopted – 1.13.2020 Chapter 12 Land Development Plan Dover 2019 Comprehensive Plan Office Parks The Land Development Plan designates specific tracts of land of various sizes for Office and Office Park land uses. Office Park development involves an integrated development of office buildings with shared entrances, driveways and parking. The majority of uses permitted within an Office Park are generally weekday professional office uses involving very little or no activity at night or on weekends. For this reason, the Office Park designation may be viewed as a transitional use category when situated between more intense commercial and industrial land uses and residential land uses. This designation usually involves the C-PO (Commercial/Professional Office Zone) zoning district. These areas are located throughout the City with established office concentrations in the Enterprise Business Park, along Silver Lake Boulevard, on College Park Drive, along Old Rudnick Lane, the Northgate Center, and elsewhere. Scattered office uses are also located along Saulsbury/McKee Road and within designated “Mixed Use” areas in the Eden Hill Farm Traditional Neighborhood Design (TND). Smaller scale areas for office parks are the Woodbrook complex on South Governors Avenue, office complexes along Walker Road, and areas along Route 8. Large Scale Industry The Land Development Plan designates all existing major industrial facilities and associated vacant lands for Industrial use. These properties include the manufacturing facilities of Kraft Heinz Foods, Proctor & Gamble, Edgewell Personal Products, PPG Industries, General Metalcraft and others. Industrial Parks Several planned industrial parks have been initiated since 1986 which offer industrial development potential. The Land Development Plan designates these sites for continued Industrial use. These sites include Kent County Aero Park/Air Cargo Terminal, Enterprise Business Park, College Business Park, and McKee Business Park. The City purchased and has developed the Garrison Oak Business and Technology Center (formerly the Garrison Oak Technical Park) in 1999-2000. It now houses a solar electric facility, an electric generating facility, a flooring products manufacturer, and a security firm with ten shovel ready lots remaining available. Planning is underway to extend the Joint Use Agreement with Dover Air Force Base to allow expansion of the Kent County Aero Park into a regional facility. The Central Delaware Aviation Complex will facilitate aviation uses including air cargo, aircraft maintenance and repair, and related uses as part of a newly designated “Employment Center.” DOVER AIR FORCE BASE Although Dover Air Force Base (DAFB) is within the City limits, as a land holding of the Federal government it is not subject to municipal regulation. In recognition of the strategic importance of DAFB with respect to the national interest, as well as the contributions of DAFB to the local economy and overall image of Dover, it is essential that the Comprehensive Plan support and protect the vital interests of Dover Air Force Base as an integral part of Dover.

Item 7. Adopted – 1.13.2020 Chapter 12 Land Development Plan Dover 2019 Comprehensive Plan Policies: Public Utilities 1. Cooperate with other public and private providers to ensure system efficiency and capacity. 2. Actively assess emerging trends, technologies and regulatory schemes as these might impact the operation of the City’s utilities. Recommendations: Public Utilities The Land Development Plan reflects the existing locations of Public Utilities and private utility facilities. These encompass water, sewer, and electric system components such as water towers, pump stations, and electric substations. Examples of private utility facilities include the Dover Solar Park and the Garrison Energy Center. No enlargement of the land use area associated with Public Utilities is proposed at this time. AGRICULTURAL LAND USES Just as was true in 2008, there are currently properties within the City limits that remain in active agricultural use. Some of these properties are zoned for residential or other uses and are being farmed for the time being until being converted to another land use. Other properties have the A (Agriculture Zone) which is a zone that specifically permits agricultural uses. Several properties in the Agriculture Zone are also enrolled in Agricultural Preservation Programs with the State of Delaware Department of Agriculture, indicating that the owners intend to continue farming at least for the five to ten-year duration of the program and potentially for a longer time. The bulk of the land zoned Agriculture is located east of State Route 1, south of Dover Air Force Base, and along Route 8 in the western portion of the City adjacent to the Cranberry Run development. Assumptions: Agricultural Land Uses 1. Many agricultural land uses, particularly those lands which the owners have chosen to place in Agricultural Preservation Programs, are likely to continue as a long-term component in the City’s land use mix. Agricultural lands in the State’s program define and limit the City’s growth, at least for as long as they are actively in the Preservation status. 2. Agricultural land uses are appropriate where they form logical transitions to larger tracts of farmland in the County, where they complement sensitive natural features, and where they can be economically viable while retaining open space in the City. 3. Higher density urban land uses, such as those anticipated in the City, are not always compatible with active agricultural operations. Consideration will have to be given to proper buffering and other measures to mitigate conflicts between agricultural and other land uses. 4. With growing support for farm fresh and “farm-to-table” programs, the nature of agriculture will continue to evolve. Specialty crops and new growing techniques will make agricultural activities in the urban area increasingly challenging from both land use and regulatory aspects. 2019 Comprehensive Plan Adopted 1.13.2020 Page 12 - 21 159

Item 7. Adopted – 1.13.2020 Chapter 13 Growth and Annexation Plan Dover 2019 Comprehensive Plan agricultural use and in most instances part of an agricultural land preservation program. However, should their agricultural preservation status change their potential development adjacent to the City’s boundaries might raise issues of the efficient provision of services and infrastructure, transportation concerns, and protection of natural resources. If developed, the City would like to be notified by the Town of Wyoming or Kent County so that the City can work with the relevant jurisdiction to ensure that land planning includes interconnections with areas that may ultimately develop in the City of Dover. CLASSIFICATION OF POTENTIAL ANNEXATION LANDS Map 13-2: Potential Land Use for Annexation Areas shows the City’s position on the land use classifications appropriate for lands within the Category 1 and Category 2 Annexation Areas. The zoning classifications considered for each land use category (classification) are identified in Table 12-1: Land Use and Zoning Matrix. Map 13-2 identifies following areas for Residential Medium Density land use category if annexed into the City: the Papen Farm east of Wyoming Mill Road, the Kesselring Farm south of Webbs Lane, the enclave area along Nixon Lane and Acorn Lane, and the area north of Denney’s Road. The plan identifies areas to the west of the City including Fox Hall Drive, Mifflin Road, and the Artis Drive areas and the Rodney Village area as the Residential Low Density land use category. This designation is also recommended in the area east of State Route 1 along Fox Road (currently developed residential lots). The map identifies the large enclave area north of the Dover Mall (which is currently a manufactured home park and other commercial and residential areas) as Mixed Use. If this area were to annex and redevelop, it is an ideal opportunity for a master-planned mixed-use community. The large enclave area east of McKee Road and north of College Road has been identified as Mixed Use if annexed. This area is adjacent to other industrially zoned areas and is bisected by the railroad tracks but could support mixed residential and commercial uses as well. The area east of the railroad corridor is identified as Open Space and has recently become part of the Fork Branch Nature Preserve. There is a small enclave area along McKee Road north of College Road that has been identified as Office and Office Parks. Most of the remainder enclave areas that front on major road corridors have been designated as a Commercial land use category if annexed. Areas adjacent to Dover International Speedway lands east of State Route 1 are identified reflecting their existing uses; this includes the categories of Residential Low Density, Industrial, and Agricultural. The Category 3 and the Areas of Concern on the Potential Annexation Map (Map 13-1) do not have potential Land Use Categories identified on the associated Map 13-2. As such, if Annexation of lands in these areas is sought then a Comprehensive Plan Amendment would be required in order to designate Land Use prior to annexation. If specifically related to an area eligible for annexation (i.e. being contiguous to the City), then a Comprehensive Plan Amendment can be considered at any time.
