(Code 1968, § 30-1; Code 1981, § 21-16)
Sec. 114-32. - Maximum height.
It shall be unlawful and a nuisance for the owner, occupant or tenant of any premises, or any agent
caring for or in charge of the premises, to permit any weeds, underbrush, deleterious or unhealthful
growths, or other noxious matter to grow to a height of eight inches or more.
(Code 1968, § 30-4; Ord. of 9-13-1976; Code 1981, § 21-17; Ord. of 8-28-2000)
Charter reference— Power of council to define nuisances, subpart A, § 18.
Sec. 114-33. - Failure to maintain proper height; abatement by city; costs and lien.
(a) Summons; action by city. In the event that any owner, occupant or tenant of any premises within the
city, or any agent caring for or in charge of the premises, shall permit any grass, weeds, underbrush,
deleterious or unhealthful growths or other noxious matter to grow to a height of eight inches or more
as prohibited by this article, then the code enforcement officer or fire marshal or his authorized
agents shall issue a summons showing a violation of section 114-32, said summons to be served
personally or by mail evidenced by certificate of mailing upon the owner, occupant, or tenant of the
premises, or any agent caring for or in charge of the premises. The summons shall cite the violation
of this article and shall be accompanied by a letter or a copy of the relevant provisions of this article
stating what corrective action must be taken and shall state the consequences for failure to take
such corrective action. If the violation is not corrected within three days from the date of personal
service of the summons or within seven days from the date of mailing of the summons evidenced by
certificate of mailing, then the city, at the direction of the code enforcement officer or the fire marshal,
may remove the weeds, grass, underbrush, deleterious or other unhealthful growths or other noxious
matter growing to a height in excess of eight inches or more in violation of section 114-32 and
charge the responsible person as provided for in Appendix F—Fees and Fines for such work that

tenant of any premises, or any agent caring for or in charge of the premises, has received
summonses, or been issued a summons evidenced by certificate of mailing, and fails to take
corrective action, and the city has corrected the violation in accordance with this subsection, then no
further notification shall be necessary for the city to take any further corrective action on any
subsequent violations within the following 12-month period starting from the date of the first
corrective action by the city.

section, and if the charges assessed by the city for correcting said deficiency are not paid, then the
city, after having corrected the deficiency and violation, shall place its charges and expenses as
specified in the municipal lien docket as a lien against said property, and add the charges and
expenses as specified to the tax duplicate for the tax year said services were provided by the city
and invoiced as part of the annual property tax bill for said property and collected as part of the city

FYI
I have spoken to Bill Pepper, he believes the sale will occur in October 2018. If we have the sale in July we have the issue
of the current tax bill and that it is not delinquent yet, and then collection for the current billing gets a little wonky.
I will email him all the paperwork to begin the sale proceedings tomorrow morning.

I will contact Bill Pepper to begin the Sheriff Sale processing for this property. Unfortunately it is too late for the April
sale, but possibly can be sold in July.
I sent out original notifications of sheriff sale processing in November and a final notification in December (Rohm did
receive these, which prompted his contact with the City)
I need to know if at any time, Mr. Rohm was notified that we were halting these proceedings? If so, I would need to
start the notification process from the beginning. Please advise.
If there was no indication of halting the Sale I will forward to Bill Pepper asap.
Thank you.

Given that there is little to no likelihood that the already outstanding fees and charges against this property will ever be
paid, and the futility of simply adding yet another burden, I suggest we move the property forward to sheriff sale.
Frankly it would be insulting, I think, to add a $5000 VBO charge so I recommend we do not impose such pending a sale.

Given that there is little to no likelihood that the already outstanding fees and charges against this property will ever be
paid, and the futility of simply adding yet another burden, I suggest we move the property forward to sheriff sale.
Frankly it would be insulting, I think, to add a $5000 VBO charge so I recommend we do not impose such pending a sale.

I have not spoken to Mr. Rohm. I was not even aware that the Sheriff sale proceedings had been stopped; until this
morning when I spoke with your office.

So you did not indicate to him that it was halted or you don't recall? I will wait for Ron's response as well. I have never
spoken to Mr. Rohm so I would not have told him that the processing was stopped.
Also, we are referring to 223 N. Governors Ave, and not 219 N. Governor's correct?

Dave,
I will contact Bill Pepper to begin the Sheriff Sale processing for this property. Unfortunately it is too late for the April
sale, but possibly can be sold in July.
I sent out original notifications of sheriff sale processing in November and a final notification in December (Rohm did
receive these, which prompted his contact with the City)
I need to know if at any time, Mr. Rohm was notified that we were halting these proceedings? If so, I would need to
start the notification process from the beginning. Please advise.
If there was no indication of halting the Sale I will forward to Bill Pepper asap.
Thank you.

For back up data to this inquiry. A $1,000 VBO fee was transferred to billing in 2015, $3,000 was transferred to billing in
2016.
The case number I have referenced is 13-0336. Generally, once cases have been transferred to billing residents are
given the opportunity to dispute the charges. Once they have been transferred to tax; we do not waive the charges at
all. It is my understanding that Mr. Rhom is past the point of dispute in this case. In addition to the $4,000 billed to his
taxes, he additionally owes $3,000 that has been billed through our MR billing. Please let me know as soon as possible
what the results of your investigation into this matter will be so that we can move forward.

Dave,
I believe this might be something that you need to look into because if the customer has been trying to take care of the
issue and we are not returning his calls it might not look good if we put his property up for Sheriff Sale.
If this not your department, please let me know.

such default and such expenses shall be deducted from the rent otherwise due.
(38) CASUALTY DAMAGE. If, in the opinion of Lessee, the Demised Premises are rendered
substantially unfit for its occupancy or use herein contemplated as a result of any casualty or peril
insured against in a standard fire and all perils insurance policy of the type then commonly
purchased by owners of similar buildings in the area in which the Demised Premises are located
(hereinafter "insurable casualty or peril") and the term of this lease agreement shall have at least
one (1) year to run, Lessor, at Lessor's sole expense, shall promptly and diligently restore the
Demised Premises to the condition existing prior to the occurrence of the insurable casualty or
peril, and all rental shall abate from the date of such occurrence until the Demised Premises are so
restored.
If, in the opinion of Lessee, the Demised Premises are rendered substantially unfit for its
occupancy or use herein contemplated as a result of any casualty or peril other than an insured
casualty or peril, or by any casualty or peril whatever when the original term of this Lease
Agreement shall have less than one (1) year to run, Lessor may either restore the Demised Premises
at Lessor's expense as above provided, or Lessor may terminate this Lease Agreement effective
as of the date of occurrence of the casualty or peril.
If an insurable casualty or peril does occur, and, in the opinion of Lessee, the Demised
Premises are not rendered substantially unfit for the occupancy or use herein contemplated, Lessor
shall promptly and diligently restore the Demised Premises at Lessor's expense to the condition
existing prior to the casualty or peril and the rent shall be proportionately reduced until such time
as the Demised Premises are restored, at which time the full rental amount then due under the
terms of this Lease Agreement shall once again be payable.
(39) CONDEMNATION. If the entire Demised Premises shall be taken by condemnation by
any public body, or private purchase in lieu thereof, or if a substantial portion of the Demised
Premises are so taken or conveyed and Lessee shall determine that the remainder is inadequate or
unsatisfactory for its use contemplated herein, such determination not having been arbitrarily or
capriciously made, then in either event this Lease Agreement shall terminate as of the date Lessee
is required to give up its right to occupancy as provided herein, and neither party to this Lease
Agreement shall have a claim against the other for the value of the unexpired term hereof.
Notwithstanding anything in this Paragraph #39, Lessee shall not be deprived of the right
to make claim against the condemning authority for any damage suffered by Lessee.
If any portion of the Demised Premises are taken by condemnation by any public body, or
private purchase in lieu thereof, and Lessee deems the remainder to be sufficient for its use
contemplated herein, Lessor and Lessee agrees the rental shall be reduced proportionately by the
amount of the Demised Premises given up to the condemning authority to the amount of space
originally demised under this Lease Agreement.
Should Lessor and Lessee fail to agree to the proportion of the rent reduction after
negotiating thirty (30) days, this Lease Agreement shall terminate and neither of the two parties to
this Lease Agreement shall have any further claim against the other.
(40) WAIVER. Lessor shall have the right at all times to enforce the provisions of this Lease
Agreement in strict accordance with the terms hereof, notwithstanding any custom or conduct on
the part of the Lessor in refraining from doing so at any other time (s).

LESSOR: ROBERT A AND NANCY H KAUFFMAN
LESSEE: JIMBO'S AUTO TOWING AND RECOVERY, LLC
GUARANTOR(S): WILLIAM M RUNYON
DEMISED PREMISES: 40 & 60 RIDGELY STREET, DOVER, KENT COUNTY,
DELA WARE 19904
LEASE DATE: JUNE 2017SO,
Lessor will not enter into the above referenced Lease Agreement unless it receives a
personal guaranty of the payment and performance of Lessee's obligations under the Lease
Agreement and any extensions and renewals thereof or holdover thereunder.
In order to induce Lessor to enter into the Lease Agreement with Lessee and in
consideration thereof, each Guarantor irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees to Lessor the
timely and complete performance and observance of all agreements and obligations (collectively,
"Obligations") of Lessee and Lessee's successors, assigns, and Sublessees, arising under the
Lease Agreement and all renewals, modifications, amendments and extensions thereof (which
shall be deemed included in the term "Lease Agreement" as used herein), including, without
limitation, the obligation to pay (a) the full Annual Rent for the entire term of the Lease
Agreement as now stated therein, regardless of whether such term is shortened or lengthened or
such Rent reduced or increased for any reason or by any cause, (b) all Additional Rent and other
sums payable to Lessor under the Lease Agreement, and (c) all damages, losses, costs, interest,
charges and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorney's fees) of every kind,
nature and description, suffered or incurred by Lessor arising in any manner out of, or in any
way connected with any default by Lessee under the Lease Agreement. If the Rent, or any part
thereof, under the Lease Agreement is accelerated by reason of Lessee's default thereunder or
otherwise, and if Lessee shall fail to pay such accelerated Rent, then Guarantor shall pay same to
Lessor on demand. Without limitation to the foregoing or to any other provision of the Guaranty,
if Lessee fails to observe or perform any Obligation in accordance with the Lease Agreement
including without limitation, the Obligation to pay Rent, then, on Lessor's demand. Guarantor
shall fully observe and perform such Obligation. This Guaranty is continuing, and shall be
effective regardless of how long before or after the date hereof any of Lessee's Obligation were
incurred or accrued. The liability of each Guarantor shall not be affected by the bankruptcy or
insolvency of Lessee or any other Guarantor or by a discharge, confirmed plan, lien avoidance,
insolvency of Lessee, or any other Guarantor or by a discharge, confirmed plan, lien avoidance
limitation of allow ability, or other aspect or provision of bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings
or law or by any defense of Lessee or any other Guarantor.
Guarantor agrees that Lessor may, at any time and from time to time, either with or
without consideration: (a) surrender any property or collateral of any kind or nature whatsoever
held by Lessor or by any person on Lessor's behalf securing any of all of the Obligations, (b)
substitute for any property or collateral so held other property or collateral of like kind or of any
other kind, (c) acquire new security of the Obligations, (d) amend, supplement, or modify the
terms of the Lease Agreement, (e) consent to or allow any subletting of the property demised
under the Lease Agreement, and (f) exercise any right to remedy against Lessee under the Lease
Agreement (including, without limitation, the right to accelerate Rent under the Lease
Page 132
Agreement and the right to terminate the Lease Agreement), all without notice to or consent from
Guarantor, and all without impairing the liability of Guarantor hereunder. Guarantor waives
notice of acceptance of this Guaranty, and of any default to Lessee under the Lease Agreement.
The liability of Guarantor hereunder is absolute and unconditional and shall not be
affected by, and Guarantor hereby waives and agrees not to assert or take advantage of: (a) any
right to require Lessor to proceed against Lessee or any other person or to exhaust any security
held by Lessor or to pursue any right or remedy before proceeding against guarantor, (b) the
defense of the stature of limitations in any action hereunder or for the collections of any
indebtedness or the performance of any Obligation hereby guaranteed, (c) any defense arising by
virtue of the failure of Lessor to file or enforce any claim, (d) any notice of the existence,
creation, or incurring of any new or additional indebtedness or obligation by, or of any action or
non-action or non-action on the part of, Lessee or Lessor, (e) any defense arising by virtue of the
lack of authority, dissolution, incompetency, death or disability, of Lessee or any other person,
(f), any defense based upon an election of remedies by Lessor, including, without limitation, an
election to proceed by non-judicial means which destroys or otherwise impairs any subrogation
or other right of Guarantor against Lessee, (g) any termination of the Lease Agreement prior to
its stated expiration date and any duty on the part of Lessor to disclose to Guarantor any fact
which Lessor may now or hereafter know about Lessee, regardless of whether Lessor has any
fact which Lessor may now or hereafter know about Lessee, regardless of whether Lessor has
reason to believe that such fact materially increases the risk beyond that which Guarantor intends
to assume, or has reason to believe that such fact is unknown to guarantor, or has a reasonable
opportunity to communicate such fact to Guarantor, it being agreed that Guarantor is fully
responsible for being and keeping informed of the financial condition of Lessee and of all facts
and circumstances bearing on the satisfaction and performance of the Obligations.
Each Guarantor waives any and all rights of subrogation against Lessee by reason of any
Guarantor's payment or performance of Lessee's obligations and subordinates any liability or
indebtedness of Lessee held by a Guarantor to the obligations of Lessee to Lessor.
This Guaranty may not be modified, discharged or terminated in any manner other than by an
agreement in writing signed by said Guarantor.
Each Guarantor is primarily obligated under the Lease Agreement. Lessor may, at its
option, proceed against any Guarantor without proceeding against Lessee or anyone else
obligated under the Lease Agreement or against any security for any of Lessee's or any of
Guarantor's obligations.
Guarantor will pay, within ten (10) days after Lessor's demand, the reasonable attorney's
fees and costs incurred by Lessor in connection with the enforcement of this Guaranty.
Guarantor irrevocably appoints Lessee as its agent for delivery of notices and for service
of process related to this Guaranty. Each Guarantor has executed this Guaranty under seal and on
the date hereof.

Attn: Phillip McGinnis

Dover, DE 19901
RE: 40 Ridgely Street
Case #12-00001089
Dear Mr. McGinnis:
The City of Dover Department of Inspections has received your letter regarding the vacant
building located at 40 Ridgely Street. The warehouse is a separate building from 60 Ridgely
Street and over 1OiOOO square feet therefore it is not exempt from being registered as vacant
This department cannot grant any exemption since the fees were waived the previous five years.
As per the City of Dover Ordinance only five years of exemption is permitted while the building
is listed for sale, lease or rent. I have given the City Clerk's Office a copy of your letter and
informed them that you may be filing an appeal to the Construction and Property Maintenance
Board of Appeals. This appeal should be filed prior to June 11, 2018
A violation notice for exterior violations was first sent on November 11, 2015, this was mainly
due to condition of exterior paint. The case remains open with violations still not corrected and
fines remain unpaid. Although I do agree this is not a public safety threat as you stated, it is still
a violation of the Property Maintenance Code. I have generously given extension after extension
to both Mr. Kauffinan and Ms. Kolakowski of your office.

RE : 40-60 RIDGELY STREET
DOVER, DELAWARE 19904
Vacant Building Notice
Painting 40 Ridgely Street
Dear Mr Coburn,
We appreciate your patience on the above - referenced property as we navigate
through obstacles that inhibit our ability to lease the property.
The portion of the property known as 60 Ridgely Street is occupied, and therefore,
according to the ordinance, the Kauffman property is considered occupied . The portion of
the property known as 40 Ridgely Street, although currently vacant, is part of a multi-
tenant property. Therefore, any occupied portion constitutes occupancy.
The painting of the property is a challenge because the owner is a retiree on fixed
income, and we are awaiting a tenant to produce rent in order to afford the painting . We
spent a lot of money in preparing 60 Ridgely for occupancy, and we have more work to do,
so capital is a bit of a struggle for us. We had a tenant for the building last summer, but we
ended up evicting him for non-payment of rent. So we have had challenges.
I am showing the property to a promising prospect this weekend, and I am hoping a
lease will result, and we can then paint as part of the occupancy preparation.
Your threat of plaeing a lien on the property in your May 11, 20Hl, email to Kelly
Kolakowski is unnecessary. This property is posing no threat to the public safety . I am
certain you have far worse cases confronting you . I assure you we are not being
uncooperative; we are just trying to balance poor market conditions and retiree's income .
Once again, I appreciate your patience in this matter. I promise to resolve it as
quickly as we can.
Respectfully submitted,
~~or-
