Item 1. CITY OF DOVER PLANNING COMMISSION JANUARY 18, 2022 The Meeting of the City of Dover Planning Commission was held on Tuesday, January 18, 2022 at 7:00 PM as a Virtual Meeting using the phone/videoconferencing system WebEx due to Delaware’s Declaration of the State of Emergency for COVID-19. The Meeting Session was conducted with Chair Mrs. Maucher presiding. Members present were Mr. Cooper, Mr. Roach, Mr. Hartman, Mr. Baldwin (arrived at 7:15PM), Dr. Jones, Mrs. Welsh, Mrs. Malone and Mrs. Maucher. (Note: The Planning Commission is deficient one member due to the December 22, 2021 resignation of Kelli Leiter Lor. Her replacement has yet to be appointed.) Staff members present were Mrs. Dawn Melson-Williams, Mr. Julian Swierczek, Ms. Samantha Bulkilvish, Mr. Jason Lyon and Mrs. Kristen Mullaney. Also present were Mr. Chris Waters, Mr. Andreas Akaras, Mrs. Stacey Flanagan, Mr. Mark Flanagan, Ms. Jeanie Johnstone, Mr. Michael Sollazzo and Mr. Bill Rankin. APPROVAL OF AGENDA Dr. Jones moved to approve the Agenda tonight, seconded by Mrs. Welsh and the motion was unanimously carried 7-0 with Mr. Baldwin absent. APPROVAL OF MEETING MINUTES OF DECEMBER 20, 2021 Mrs. Welsh moved to approve the Planning Commission Meeting Minutes of December 20, 2021, seconded by Mrs. Malone and the motion was unanimously carried 7-0 with Mr. Baldwin absent. COMMUNICATIONS & REPORTS Mrs. Melson-Williams stated that the next Planning Commission regular meeting is scheduled for Tuesday, February 22, 2022 at 7:00PM. It is scheduled to be held virtually and Staff will let everyone know if that changes or not. Mrs. Melson-Williams provided an update on the regular City Council and various Committee meetings held on January 10, 2022. Mrs. Melson-Williams stated that masks are required in all City buildings once again and we have moved all of our Board and Commission Meetings to Virtual Meetings only. That was following a decision by City Council to do the same. It is authorized to be in a virtual setting only by way of the State of Emergency that the Governor declared on January 3, 2022. The provisions of the State’s Freedom of Information Act related to open meetings allows meetings to be conducted in a virtual setting without that in-person anchor location during times of a State of Emergency. So we have moved back to that format and we will continue in that format for the foreseeable future. She knows that it was always fun to do hybrid meetings with in-person and virtual people but she thinks that the Commission is well versed in making even the virtual system work while still allowing all of our applications to be heard and the public to participate. The Dover community also lost in recent weeks, Mr. Francis Nichols Sr. He was an employee of the City of Dover as an engineer for a number of years and retiring from Dover and then also served as a Planning Commission member for about ten years from 2002 to about 2012. We did 1 4

Page 5

Item 1. CITY OF DOVER PLANNING COMMISSION JANUARY 18, 2022 appreciate all of his questions related to Public Works matters because of his experience in that venue. Mrs. Melson-Williams stated that later this evening we will be recognizing the service of a Planning Commission member, Mrs. Kelli Lord. She has chosen to resign from the Commission and the Mayor is working on an appointment to fill that seat. It is a representative of the Third District. It is her understanding that there is a potential appointee and we may have that in place before our next meeting. Mrs. Melson-Williams stated that the Institute for Public Administration is getting started with their whole series of training sessions and these are available using Zoom in a virtual format. There was one last week and she is not sure that they had anybody participate in that. It was on “Advanced Land Use Law”. There are two more classes coming up and they certainly encourage you to take advantage of this opportunity. The next one is being held on January 28, 2022 from 10AM to noon. It is the “Planning 101” course which is a good introduction or a good reminder to what Planning is all about. If you are a Planning Commission member and are interested in attending that session, please reach out to Planning Staff and they can get you registered for that. There is a fee and then they send the email link for the event. The next session is scheduled for February 25, 2022 and it is “Introduction to Land-Use Law, the Constitution, and Takings” with course instructors Mr. Max Walton who is a lawyer who we have heard from a number of times and is an expert in land-use law. Another instructor is Mr. Edward O’Donnell who now works for the University of Delaware but was in local land-use administration for years; so, he also brings a wealth of knowledge. If you are interested in either one of those, please reach out to Staff and they can get you registered for those. Mr. Baldwin joined the meeting at 7:15PM. Mrs. Melson-Williams read the Resolution honoring the service of Kelli Leiter Lord on the Planning Commission for the record. Resolution Whereas, Kelli Leiter Lord became a member of the City of Dover Planning Commission on September 14, 2020 and has served with diligence and distinction in this capacity as an advocate for sound land use planning in the public interest; and, Whereas, Kelli Leiter Lord has played a role in ensuring fundamental fairness and careful forethought in the planning and development of the Capital City through her service on the Planning Commission; and, Whereas, Kelli Leiter Lord in reviewing development applications has utilized her background in graphic design in combination with an eagerness to improve the character, aesthetics, and prosperity of Downtown Dover in particular; and for her ability to remain a clear, fair, and decisive advocate even through the trials and difficulties of the COVID-19 Pandemic with the virtual/ hybrid meeting formats for Planning Commission Meetings; and, 2 5

Page 6

Item 1. CITY OF DOVER PLANNING COMMISSION JANUARY 18, 2022 Whereas, Kelli Leiter Lord completed her term of service on the City of Dover Planning Commission on December 27, 2021. Now Therefore Be It Resolved That, the City of Dover Planning Commission does hereby express its sincere appreciation to Kelli Leiter Lord for her faithful and diligent service to the Citizens of the City of Dover as an active member of the City of Dover Planning Commission and extends its very best wishes to Kelli Leiter Lord for a bright and prosperous future.

OPENING REMARKS CONCERNING DEVELOPMENT APPLICATIONS Mrs. Melson-Williams presented the audience information on policies and procedures for the Virtual Meeting using the WebEx system. OLD BUSINESS 1) Requests for Extensions of Planning Commission Approval: None NEW APPLICATIONS SB-22-01 Lands of Four M Investments VII, LLC at 1601 POW/MIA Parkway: Minor Subdivision Plan - Public Hearing and Review of a Minor Subdivision Plan to subdivide a property consisting of 37.447 acres +/- into two parcels (Lot 1 and Lot 2). Lot 1 (Residual) is to be 29.297 acres+/- and encompasses the bulk of the original property area to the south containing the Manufacturing Facility known as Delmarva Corrugated. Lot 2 is to be 8.150 acres+/- and is proposed for the northern portion of the property. The subject property is located on the northeast side of the POW/MIA Parkway and west of New Burton Road. The property is adjacent to the Railroad on the east. The property is zoned IPM (Industrial Park Manufacturing Zone). The owner of record is Four M Investments VII, LLC. Property Address: 1601 POW/MIA Parkway (previous address 1436 New Burton Road). Tax Parcel Number: ED-05-085.00-01-07.00-000. Council District 2. The Application for development of this property was Site Plan S-20-08 Manufacturing Facility at 1436 New Burton Road, which received Conditional Approval from the Planning Commission in October 2020 meeting, and Final Plan Approval in February 2021. Representatives: Mr. Chris Waters, Davis, Bowen & Friedel; Mr. Andreas Akaras, property owner representative for Four M Investments VII, LLc Mr. Swierczek stated that this is a Minor Subdivision Plan Application at 1601 POW/MIA Parkway. This had previously been addressed at 1436 New Burton Road. Many of the Planning Commissioners will remember that this was most recently the subject of Site Development Plan S-20-08 which was the application which brought us the Delmarva Corrugated Facility that is now up and running. This Minor Subdivision Plan Application is proposing two lots. The main lot, noted as Lot 1, is shown on the left side of your screen, would contain the existing Delmarva Corrugated Facility building with just over 29 acres. The remaining land which you see towards the right that is towards the north of the site would be just over 8 acres and noted as Lot 2. There 3 6

Page 7

Item 1. CITY OF DOVER PLANNING COMMISSION JANUARY 18, 2022 are no developments proposed as of yet for Lot 2. Staff will note that from the previous application for the development of the site, there will be no additional site entrances off of the POW/MIA Parkway. So, there will be a shared access through Lot 1 onto Lot 2. We did include an advisory comment that noted that whatever development may come to Lot 2 would of course have to be compliant with bulk standards. Were there to be any question of Lot 1 or Lot 2 potentially not being fully compliant, they may need to adjust the property line accordingly. As he had already mentioned, there is no specific development proposed so at this time, Planning Staff does not see that as being an issue. Mr. Waters stated that Mr. Swierczek has been very helpful on this project as well as everyone else from the City and different agencies. This project is pretty straight forward. They are going to be using the same access point for Lot 2 so no new access will be created. We will just create an easement across Lot 1. There have been utilities created for the building that they will address with utility easements that cross from Lot 2 to Lot 1. He thinks that there was some concern about the slope on the side of the stormwater pond that will be addressed to make sure that there is no conflict between the existing stormwater pond #2 and the property line. He thinks that those were the main concerns. Nothing has been proposed for development for Lot 2; they are just trying to create it at this time. Mrs. Maucher opened the public hearing and after seeing no one wishing to speak, closed the public hearing. Mr. Hartman moved to approve SB-22-01 Lands of Four M Investments VII, LLC at 1601 POW/MIA Parkway: Minor Subdivision Plan based on the recommendations and findings of the DAC, the fact that any development will have to go through the appropriate development application review process, and that the Subdivision Plan generally appears to comply with the Land Subdivision Regulations, seconded by Mrs. Welsh and the motion was carried 8-0 by roll call vote. Mr. Hartman voting yes; based on the motion previously made. Mr. Baldwin voting yes; based on the previous statement. Dr. Jones voting yes; for the reasons stated in the motion. Mrs. Welsh voting yes; for reasons stated in the motion. Mrs. Malone voting yes; for reasons stated. Mr. Cooper voting yes; for reasons stated. Mr. Roach voting yes; for the reasons stated in the motion. Mrs. Maucher voting yes; for reasons stated in the motion. C-22-01 Kind Kids Early Learning Center at 725 Walker Road - Public Hearing and Review of a Conditional Use Site Plan to permit the conversion of a 4,729 SF Office Building into a Child Daycare Center to serve 63 children. The property consists of one parcel of land totaling 0.51 acres +/- (22,500 SF). The property for the proposed development is zoned C-1A (Limited Commercial Zone).

Item 1. CITY OF DOVER PLANNING COMMISSION JANUARY 18, 2022 Ms. Bulkilvish stated that this is a Conditional Use Application for a large daycare center at 725 Walker Road. The property is zoned C-1A (Limited Commercial Zone). The property contains a 4,729 SF vacant building currently. The day care is proposing to inhabit the entire building. There is also parking facilities outside and a fenced-in rear portion. They are proposing to have 63 children and have a minimum of 7 adults. There is parking facilities located in the front of the building with 24 spaces which is more than enough to accommodate the children and adults. They are proposing 5 bicycle parking spaces at the front of the building. Some parking located at the front of the building will be relocated to address the need for a ten-foot perimeter access around the building. Those relocated spaces will be striped and the parking bumpers replaced. The site requires eight trees; there are seven existing and one proposed at the front left corner of the building. A new outdoor play area is shown to the left of the building and encroaches on an adjacent property. The adjacent property is; however, owned by the same property owner and a written agreement will have to be made between the lessee and the property owner. Trash collection will be private and stored at the rear of the building in that gated area. The applicant has also asked for a Waiver from the upright curbing requirements. Due to the existing conditions, placing curbing would interrupt the stormwater sheet flow off of the parking lot and cause some flooding in the parking area. Staff has approved that upright curbing waiver. Mr. Sollazzo stated that he has read Ms. Bulkilvish’s summary in the DAC Report and he found it quite thorough and he has nothing further to add. Mr. Hartman questioned what will be used to ensure that the play area remains a play area since it is on the adjacent property? Responding to Mr. Hartman, Mr. Sollazzo stated that the adjacent property is owned by the same owner. The owner is obviously very much behind this whole project and has verbally given us an agreement to use a portion of the property as shown on the plans, which will of course be fenced in. They are in the process of getting written documentation because the DAC Report has requested that and they have already put that into motion. He doesn’t know what the technical term for it will be. If it will be a deed restriction or something like that but there will be a written confirmation from the owner to allow the applicants to use that portion for their play area. Mr. Hartman stated that if the owner sells that property in the future, that agreement will still be in place. Responding to Mr. Hartman, Mr. Sollazzo stated that he can’t speak to that because he hasn’t seen the written document that he assumes is in the process of being prepared. He will say that there is another option to provide the play area on the side of the building and in the back of the building. The applicants, at this particular time, chose not to do that and this is what they want to do and the owner has said that was fine. If that were to change in the future, they do have room on the property for a sufficient sized play area along the side or back portion of this building. Mr. Hartman stated that that way it would not interfere with access for the Fire Department or any first responders. Responding to Mr. Hartman, Mr. Sollazzo stated that was correct. You can see by the dashed line, the area that is for the first responders which is either ten or fifteen feet around the building. They actually don’t need access around 100% of the building. You can see on the side where the play area is; they have access but it just doesn’t show it on the plan because they don’t need that much. In the back, there is an existing fence there right now but that could 5 8

Page 9

Item 1. CITY OF DOVER PLANNING COMMISSION JANUARY 18, 2022 all change in the future as they perhaps need to rearrange the play area to make a “L” shape along the side and rear of the building. Then they would obviously remove a portion of the fence that is now making a portion of the rear of the building a protected area. So they would simply rearrange that. Mr. Hartman stated that he wanted to get Mr. Sollazzo’s opinion of the Planning Staff’s recommendation to include a sidewalk between the building and gate to the play area. Responding to Mr. Hartman, Mr. Sollazzo stated that there is an existing one there and they are simply utilizing that. There is a side door to the building and there is an existing sidewalk. That is actually where you would enter the play area and then that sidewalk connects to the existing parking lot. So he doesn’t know if there is additional sidewalk that is required but he hasn’t starting working on affecting the comments to his drawings. Mr. Hartman asked if Planning Staff could provide an explanation as to the recommendation for the connectivity or the installation of sidewalk that is in the DAC Report. Responding to Mr. Hartman, Ms. Bulkilvish stated that she was just suggesting that they extend the sidewalk so that it meets the gates of the play area. Mr. Sollazzo stated that is very easily accomplished. Mrs. Maucher opened a public hearing and after seeing no one wishing to speak, closed the public hearing. Mr. Hartman moved to approve C-22-01 Kind Kids Early Learning Center at 725 Walker Road on the condition that the required children’s play area is always provided and is safe for the children and he approves based on the recommendations of Planning Staff including that the location is near an elementary school and the new Dover Middle School that is under construction. The property is located centrally to several residential neighborhoods. The property is easily accessed by car on Walker Road and there is multi-modal access via sidewalks along Walker Road. The use will occupy an existing building which is currently vacant. Mrs. Maucher stated that she wasn’t sure if Mr. Hartman meant the play area that is proposed now or that some play area is provided. Responding to Mrs. Maucher, Mr. Hartman stated that he meant that the required play area square footage is provided in a safe place for the children. He is just concerned that if this play area is moved. He doesn’t think that they will cut corners but he doesn’t want that to be open to impact the safety of any children back there in that area. Mr. Baldwin seconded the motion and the motion was approved 8-0 by roll call vote. Mr. Hartman voting yes; based on what was stated in the motion. Mr. Baldwin voting yes. Dr. Jones voting yes; with the concerns that were raised by Mr. Hartman. Mrs. Welsh voting yes; for reasons stated and accordance with the location near the schools and it’s appropriate for a child care center that is needed in that area. Mrs. Malone voting yes; for reasons stated. Mr. Cooper voting yes; for reasons stated. Mr. Roach voting yes; for reasons stated. He always likes to see day cares get into a close vicinity of schools and neighborhoods and they will be a welcomed address. Mrs. Maucher voting yes; for reasons previously stated. 6 9

Item 1. CITY OF DOVER PLANNING COMMISSION JANUARY 18, 2022 Mrs. Melson-Williams stated that there was a response in the chat area from Ms. Jeanie Johnstone stating that she wanted to respond to a comment. Ms. Johnstone stated that in regards to the Office of Child Care Licensing, there are certain restrictions that they have to abide by prior to opening. The Office of Child Care Licensing will be monitoring this (facility) yearly. They do come out and do private and personal inspections that they do and don’t make them aware of. So there will always be someone kind of looking after the building and making sure that it is up to par with all inspections and qualifications regarding child care to make sure that the children are safe. Mrs. Melson-Williams stated that just so that the Commissioners are aware, there is a licensing procedure with the State Office of Child Care Licensing in addition to Public Occupancy and Business Licensing requirements with the City of Dover as well for child care day care centers. Mr. Hartman stated that he was just concerned because the applicant had a piece of property that was going to be used as a play area but there was no guarantee that that piece of property would always be available. Mr. Mark Flanagan stated that just in case there is any confusion, it will be privacy fenced off so the children will be safe while outside. The other thing is that both properties were purchased at the same time for the specific reasons of opening this center and expanding that center onto this property at a later time. The property that we are encroaching on, they were both bought at the same time for the purpose of opening this center. Mr. Hartman stated that he is just concerned that that property might be used for some other purpose in the future. Responding to Mr. Hartman, Mr. Flanagan stated that their lease actually includes that property. Mr. Hartman questioned what that means. Responding to Mr. Hartman, Mr. Flanagan stated that they lease it all from the owner. He purchased it for us to lease off of him to open this center. Mr. Hartman stated that as long as the lease is valid, you will have access to that part of the property even if that owner sells it. Responding to Mr. Hartman, Mr. Flanagan stated that obviously things can happen but that is not the plan. Mrs. Maucher stated that Mr. Sollazzo stated that there was a Plan B should something happen to that current proposed area. There is a backup plan to use the property in the rear of the building should something happen; so, that is why she asked for clarification earlier. NEW BUSINESS Report on 2021 Application Tallies Mrs. Melson-Williams stated that Planning Staff again put together the tally at the end of the year. The chart here gives a summary of all the application types that were typically processed for our Boards and Commissions dating back to 2006. There is a break down by quarter for the 7 10

Page 11

Item 1. CITY OF DOVER PLANNING COMMISSION JANUARY 18, 2022 last two years. You can see that in 2021 we have had a slight rebound in the number of applications that our various Boards and Commissions have been addressing. They continue to be very active even through the COVID-19 pandemic years. There was a total of 59 applications over calendar year 2021. Not all of them were seen by this body and she would remind the Commission that just because an application appeared for you in a certain calendar year, doesn’t mean that Staff is done dealing with it. When the Commission adopts/approves an application, it does have a period of two years to finalize and get started underway. We are still dealing with projects from 2019 that have finalized their plans or are in the process thereof or they have gotten a one-year extension and are under or are soon to be under construction. Next month they may be close to having our Annual Report for 2021 and that will have the full list of the kinds of application details for 2021. You know that Annexations, Conditional Uses and most Site Plans come to you. There are some that qualify for just Administrative Review. Subdivisions come to you and Rezoning applications too. Some of the miscellaneous types of applications appear before you. Mrs. Maucher questioned what would fall under Miscellaneous applications? Responding to Mrs. Maucher, Mrs. Melson-Williams stated that in 2021 it included our Comprehensive Rezoning Project and Comprehensive Plan Amendments. Text Amendments also get placed with that application type. It also may be just information tracking. If there is a particular study that is going on, they assign it an application number so that they can find all of the details of that study in the future. Mrs. Maucher questioned what falls under the Historic District Commission? Responding to Mrs. Maucher, Mrs. Melson-Williams stated that the Historic District Commission are applications that are referred to the Historic District Commission. In the case of the six that they dealt with this year, a majority of them were what they call a Referral of a Permit to the Historic District Commission. Activities affecting the exterior of properties in the City’s Historic District are subject to Architectural Review Certification. For most projects, that is something that can be reviewed by Staff. However, if it is a project that is slightly unusual or they are seeking to implement a project that doesn’t quite fit the Design Standards and Guidelines for the City of Dover Historic District Zone, the Permit can be referred to the Historic District Commission for their review and input on that Architectural Review Certification. She thinks that there is maybe one of the six that was actually a true application to the Commission that involved a parking lot. A majority of them were related to Permit Referrals. There was a Permit on drainage, at least one on fencing, and on signage. Meeting adjourned at 8:10 PM. Sincerely, Kristen Mullaney Secretary 8 11

Item 4. City of CITY OF DOVER Dover Planning Office DEVELOPMENT ADVISORY COMMITTEE APPLICATION REVIEW COMMENTARY D.A.C. MEETING DATE: February 9, 2022 APPLICATION: Annexation of Lands of Ernestine F. Huff at 166 Mifflin Road FILE #: AX-22-01 REVIEWING AGENCY: City of Dover Planning CONTACT PERSON: Samantha Bulkilvish, AICP, Planner II PHONE #: (302) 736-7196 I. Summary This application is for the Annexation and Rezoning of the property at 166 Mifflin Road, Dover. It is a parcel of land totaling 0.57 acres or 25,000 SF +/-. The owner of record is Ernestine F. Huff. Tax Parcel: ED-00-076.14-01-02.00-000. II. Existing Property The property is located on the west side of Mifflin Road and approximately 300 feet south of Woodmill Drive. The boundary of the City of Dover surrounds the parcel on all sides. The property includes an existing single-family detached dwelling. The property is currently zoned RS-1 (Residential Single Family Zone) in Kent County. The owner would like to have a solution to a failing septic system by being able to connect to the City Sewer. III. Surrounding Land Uses To the north, south and east the property is surrounded by single-family dwellings on similar or larger sized lots. To the west of the property is an approximately 16-acre portion of Open Space associated with the Village of Westover PND residential subdivision. Properties to the north, south, west, and to the east across Mifflin Road are within the City of Dover. IV. Comprehensive Plan In the 2019 Comprehensive Plan, the Potential Annexation Areas (Map 13 -1) identifies the property in the Category 1: High Priority Annexation Areas. The Growth and Annexation Plan Chapter (Chapter 13) notes that “Lands in this category are primarily enclaves of unincorporated territory mostly surrounded by the City of Dover. In all or most of these cases, the City provides these parcels with one or more essential service (sewer, water, police, fire, trash).” For Category 1: High Priority Annexation Areas, it notes in the Recommendations that “the City will not extend sewer and/or water infrastructure to Category 1 areas unless the property owners annex into the City” with consideration given for issues of health, safety and welfare. The 2019 Comprehensive Plan also sets the review criteria for the review of zoning for parcels being proposed for annexation. Chapter 13, page 13-9 notes that the Zoning Review may include: • Proposed zoning be in compliance with the land use category shown on Map 13-2 and used in conjunction with Table 12-1: Land Use and Zoning Matrix; 16

Page 17

Item 4. AX-22-01 Lands of Ernestine F. Huff at 166 Mifflin Road DAC Report of February 9, 2022 Page 2 • Character and compatibility of the surrounding land uses and properties; • The street type and capacity serving the property; • Environmental concerns and conditions that may influence land use and zoning; • Market concerns and conditions; • The compatibility with the overall goals of the Comprehensive Plan. Map 13-2: Potential Land Use for Annexation Areas identifies the Land Use Classification for this property to be Residential Low Density. As part of the Land Development Plan, Table 12-1: Land Use and Zoning Matrix specifies that the following zones are compatible with this land use classification of Residential Low Density.

Item 4. AX-22-01 Lands of Ernestine F. Huff at 166 Mifflin Road DAC Report of February 9, 2022 Page 5 The property is also subject to the SWPOZ (Source Water Protection Overlay Zone). In this case a small portion of the property at the rear is located in Tier 3 – Excellent Recharge Areas. Information regarding the Excellent Recharge Areas of the SWPOZ can be found in Article 3 §29.79 of the Zoning Ordinance. See the following Code excerpt: Section 29. – Source Water Protection Overlay Zone (SWPOZ). 29.7 Tier 3: excellent recharge areas. Lands defined as tier 3 lands are areas which have been identified as 'excellent recharge areas'. Recharge areas are defined as land with high percentages of sand and gravel that have "excellent" potential for recharge as determined through a stack unit mapping analysis performed originally by the Delaware Geological Survey. 29.71 Applicability. The impervious cover restrictions of this section shall apply only to any activity requiring approval of the planning commission. 29.72 Impervious surfaces. Impervious surfaces within tier 3 lands of the source water protection overlay zone are limited to a maximum of 30 percent. Limits upon impervious surface apply to portions of a site which is within tier 3 lands. New development may exceed the 30 percent impervious cover threshold up to 60 percent impervious cover provided the differential volume of stormwater generated from 30 percent to 60 percent impervious cover, based on the two-year storm, is infiltrated within an excellent recharge area. The use of infiltration shall be based upon the technical merits of the application as well as the ability to quantify the volume of recharge. All infiltration facilities shall be designed in accordance with the Delaware Sediment and Stormwater Regulations. 29.73 Redevelopment. Site modification which requires site development plan approval must create a 15-percent reduction in the amount of impervious surface on the site when co mpared to pre-redevelopment conditions. (a) If the 15-percent reduction would require a site to go below the 30-percent maximum impervious surface provision of section 29.72, then the maximum impervious surface cover for the site is 30 percent. (b) If stormwater is infiltrated within the excellent recharge area as per section 29.72 then only an amount of reduction in impervious surface which is necessary to meet the 60-percent maximum will be required. 29.74 Storage tanks. Underground storage tanks are prohibited within tier 3 lands. Aboveground storage tanks which use, store, transfer, or dispose of any solid or liquid material or waste having potentially harmful impact on groundwater quality are prohibited within tier 3 lands. 29.75 Site design. All reasonable efforts must be undertaken to position permanent structures on the portions of the property which are not subject to the tier 3: excellent recharge area. The particular desires of personal or corporate entities shall not constitute reasonable effo rts. 29.76 Alternative design standards. It is the intent of this ordinance to protect, conserve, and improve the available supply of potable water while still maintaining property rights. As such, where the restrictions of this ordinance prevent development that would otherwise be reasonable and proper according to the base zoning, the applicant may request alternative design standards as part of their application and development plan. The planning commission may modify specific bulk standards when in the opinion of the commission, it has been demonstrated that the use of alternative design standards is desirable and consistent with the protection of water resources. Alternative bulk standards include but are not limited to changes in building height/stories, floor 20

Page 21

Item 4. AX-22-01 Lands of Ernestine F. Huff at 166 Mifflin Road DAC Report of February 9, 2022 Page 6 area ratio, or building setbacks. 29.77 Master plans. Site development which occurs as part of a site development master plan as specified in the zoning ordinance, article 10 section 2.58 may consider the area of the entire tier 3 portion of the master plan area when developing individual phases. This will allow for higher than prescribed amounts of impervious cover on specific portions of the master plan so long as the overall impervious surface for the entire tier 3 lands in the plan remains in compliance with this section. On a site development master plan, when the city engineer certifies that the project utilizes superior infiltration design that maximizes groundwater recharge, impervious cover may be increased to 75 percent. 29.78 Improvements to existing residential lots. Improvements to existing residential lots, including additions to existing one-family dwellings, the placement of sheds, and fences are exempt from section 29.7 and may be permitted when all other applicable zoning district bulk requirements are met. 29.79 Downtown target area. The downtown redevelopment target area as defined in appendix C, article II, section 3 [Target Area] of the City of Dover Code of Ordinances shall be exempt from the requirements and restrictions of the source water protection overlay zone. 29.710 Special environmental considerations. On sites where infiltration would be contrary to a cleanup agreement or other conditions imposed by the department of natural resources and environmental control or the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, the impervious surface limitations of this section shall not apply to the affected areas. Such sites shall be certified by the City Engineer through the development application process. 29.711 Procedure for Contesting the delineation of the source water protection overlay zone. Data used to define these zones was generated in a report from the Delaware Geological Survey entitled, "Report of Investigations No. 66, Ground-Water Recharge Potential Mapping in Kent and Sussex Counties, Delaware". Any challenges to the delineation of the source water protection overlay zone must follow the methods provided in the above sited report to contest the delineation. VI. Recommendation of Planning Staff: Staff recommends the annexation of the property at 166 Mifflin Road and its rezoning to R-8 (One Family Residence Zone) and subject to the SWPOZ (Source Water Protection Overlay Zone): Tier 3 be approved as submitted. The subject property is in the City’s Annexation Plan of the 2019 Comprehensive Plan as Category 1: High Priority Annexation Areas with a Land Use Classification as Residential Low Density. This is a High Priority Annexation Area since it is an enclave and will help fill in one of the holes in the City of Dover Boundary. The R-8 zoning is consistent with the development in the area as this parcel is surrounded by single-family detached dwellings and is consistent with the Land Use Classification of Residential Low Density. The R-8 zoning is appropriate for the current use of the property as a single-family dwelling and is consistent with neighboring zoning. This recommendation is being made without the 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. The parcel also meets the minimum lot dimensions of 70 ft. wide by 100 ft. deep for a parcel zoned R-8 and has a lot area exceeding the minimum 8,000 SF required. 21

Item 4. AX-22-01 Lands of Ernestine F. Huff at 166 Mifflin Road DAC Report of February 9, 2022 Page 7 VII. ADVISORY COMMENTS TO THE APPLICANT 1) From the agency comments received, it appears that ability to provide City water and sewer is extremely feasible due to the proximity to existing infrastructure on the opposite side of Mifflin Road. It would be the property owner’s responsibility to cover all costs associated with extending and connecting services to the existing dwelling. 2) Upon annexation into the City of Dover, the property will be subject to the provisions of the Dover Code of Ordinances. This includes procedures such as review processes for plans and permits for construction activities, licensing, etc. 3) The applicant shall be aware that approval of any Annexation & Rezoning application does not represent a Building Permit or other construction activity permit approval. A separate application submission showing all improvements is required before issuance of permits by the City of Dover. 4) Regarding connection to City services (water and/or sanitary sewer) the applicant must contact the City’s Department of Water & Wastewater for procedures, permitting and impact fees. If you have any questions or need to discuss any of the above comments, please call the above contact person and the Planning Office as soon as possible. 22

PLAN SUMMARY This application is for review of a Conditional Use Site Plan to permit the conversion of 927 SF within an existing 3,864 SF Building to serve as a Dwelling-Unit (Apartment). The remainder of the building is to remain as office space. The property consists of one parcel of land totaling 0.84 acres +/- (36,590 SF). The property for the proposed development is zoned C-PO (Commercial and Professional Office Zone). The property is located on the east side of South Queen Street, opposite South West Street. The Owner of Record is DMG Holdings LLC. Property Address: 773 South Queen Street. Tax Parcel Number: ED-05-077.13-01-30.04-000. II. PROJECT DESCRIPTION The subject property is located on the east side of South Queen Street, opposite the southern terminus of South West Street. The applicant is proposing to convert 927 SF within an existing 3,864 SF Building to serve as a single dwelling-unit (Apartment). The remainder of the building is to remain as office space. The Plans submitted by the Applicant note no proposed changes to the exterior of the building or other site improvements. The Plans additionally included a floorplan which appears to show the apartment as being proposed to contain two (2) bedrooms and will have one entrance into the apartment unit from a shared vestibule with the Dentist Office. This existing vestibule appears to be the main entrance to the Dentist Office space and is located on the south side of the building. A second entrance is noted for the apartment, which appears to be entirely new. It is located on the north side of the building providing access from the apartment unit directly to the exterior of the building. The parcels in the immediate vicinity of the subject site are all also zoned C-PO (Commercial and Professional Office Zone). The property to the north is currently undeveloped and contains little foliage other than grass. The next property immediately to the north is zoned C-PO and contains medical offices. Both the properties to the rear (east) and south of the subject site contain medical offices. Directly across the subject site to the west is the southern terminus of South West Street.

Item 5. C-22-02 Apartment at 773 South Queen Street DAC Report of February 9, 2022 Page 3 industrial uses. To the north of South West Street, directly across from the subject site is another parcel zoned C-PO and containing medical offices. Somewhat further afield to the west, north, and east of the subject site are properties zoned primarily commercial containing a mix of commercial and industrial uses. Somewhat further to the south is Dover and New Streets Park which itself borders the Sherwood Subdivision containing primarily one-family detached dwelling units (single-family homes). III. ZONING REVIEW C-PO (Commercial and Professional Office Zone) Zoning The existing use of the property as a professional office (Dentist) is considered to be a permitted use in the C-PO Zone. The proposed addition of the residential use (one dwelling unit) to be added within the existing building is classified as an apartment. An apartment is a conditional use in the C-PO Zone. The Zoning Ordinance, Article 12 provides the following definition of an apartment: Apartment: A dwelling unit, within a building with other uses and/or dwelling units, that is intended for use as a residence by an individual or a single family. The following description of the C-PO zoning district is provided from Article 3 §26 of the Zoning Ordinance. Article 3 Section 26. – Commercial and Professional Office Zone (C-PO). 26.1 Uses permitted. In a commercial and professional office zone (C-PO), no building or premises shall be used, and no building or part of a building shall be erected, which is arranged, intended, or designed to be used, in whole or in part, for any purpose, except the following: (a) Business, professional or governmental offices (b) Banks (c) Medical laboratories. (d) Drive-in facilities accessory to any permitted use. 26.2 Conditional Uses. The following uses are permitted, conditional upon the approval of the planning commission in accordance with the procedures and subject to the general conditions set forth in article 10, section 1: (a) Conditional uses accessory to permitted uses on the same lot: (1) Cafeteria. (2) Restaurant. (3) Barbershop/beauty shop. (4) Copy center. (5) Office supply. (6) Retail store. (7) Newsstand. (8) Spa and health club. (9) Associated laboratories (other than those affiliated with permitted medical uses). 31

Page 32

Item 5. C-22-02 Apartment at 773 South Queen Street DAC Report of February 9, 2022 Page 4 (b) Residential uses as follows: (1) Apartments and multifamily residences, provided at least two off-street parking spaces shall be provided in the area for each unit. (2) One family residences subject to the requirements of the RG-1 (General Residence) zone. 26.3 Enclosed buildings. All permitted uses and all storage accessory thereto, other than offstreet parking, shall be carried on in buildings fully enclosed on all sides, except for outdoor eating areas associated with restaurants and outdoor sales areas approved by the city planner. 26.4 Performance standards. All uses are subject to performance standards as set forth in article 5, section 8.1. 26.5 Site development plan approval. Site development plan approval in accordance with article 10, section 2 hereof shall be required prior to the issuance of building permits for the erection or enlargement of all structures and prior to the issuance of certificates of occupancy for any change of use. . This Conditional Use Site Plan is subject to the requirements of Article 10 §1 further discussed below. With Conditional Use Site Plan applications, the Planning Commission reviews the proposed project to determine whether or not the intended use for an apartment is appropriate in type and scale for the immediate neighborhood. The Commission must also consider whether or not the proposed use will have an adverse impact on the future orderly development of the surrounding area. The following sections of the Zoning Ordinance which relates to the role of the Commission in reviewing Conditional Use Site Plan applications are particularly relevant when reviewing this application: Article 10 §1.1 [Accessibility for fire and police protection.] That all proposed structures, equipment or material shall be readily accessible for fire and police protection; Article 10 §1.2 That the proposed use be of such location, size, and character that, in general, it will be in harmony with the appropriate and orderly development of the zone in which it is proposed to be situated and will not be detrimental to the orderly development of adjacent properties in accordance with the zoning classification of such properties; If the Planning Commission approves a Conditional Use Application, the use is granted as a Conditional Use Permit. Such permits may be permanent, subject to limitations outlined in Zoning Ordinance Article 10 §1.41 or be required by the Commission to undergo periodic renewal, using the procedure described in Article 10 §1.42. Any Conditional Use Permit, permanent or not, may be revoked using the procedure described in Article 10 §1.43 if the conditions prescribed by the Commission in conjunction with the issuance of the Conditional Use Permit have not been, or are no longer being complied with. For a property seeking Conditional Use approval which does not need an associated Site Development Plan approval (due to occupying an existing building), Article 10 §1.8 outlines the submission requirements. These requirements include a map of the property showing existing conditions with the appropriate legal data and information about the proposed use. 32

Item 5. C-22-02 Apartment at 773 South Queen Street DAC Report of February 9, 2022 Page 5 IV. PARKING SUMMARY The minimum parking requirements for the C-PO (Commercial and Professional Office Zone) is one (1) parking space for every 300 S.F. Based on the size of the existing building (3,864 S.F.) the site requires thirteen (13) parking spaces. The C-PO Zone however further specifies in Article 3, Section 26.2(b)(1) that apartments and multifamily residences must provide at least two off-street parking spaces for each apartment unit. The plan shows thirty-six (36) parking spaces in the existing parking lot of which two (2) are handicap parking spaces. The Plans show therefore that the property is currently compliant in meeting the vehicle parking requirements for both the professional office (dentist) and proposed apartment use. Bicycle Parking Bicycle parking is required at a ratio of one space for every twenty parking spaces. As the site contains thirty-six (36) vehicle parking spaces, this would require a minimum of two (2) bicycle parking spaces. The Plans submitted do not currently show there to be any bicycle parking facilities present. Article 5, Section 18.5 of the Zoning Ordinance notes that the property owner or developer may request a waiver from the Planning Commission from the requirements of providing bicycle parking. However, the Applicant has indicated that they will not be submitting a waiver request and will instead provide the bicycle parking facilities as required. This feature will therefore need to be added to the Plans in order to achieve Final Plan Approval. V. SITE CONSIDERATIONS Access There is currently an existing entrance to the site directly from South Queen Street, directly opposite the southern terminus of South West Street. This entrance provides access to a drive aisle which appears to run on the southern property line, providing access to the parking lot at the rear (east) of the building. It is from this rear parking lot that a sidewalk provides pedestrian access to the main entrance of the building on its south façade, as well as a concrete stair providing a secondary access to the east side of the building. It is noted that the vehicle access point to the subject site is additionally the vehicle access from South Queen Street for the property immediately adjacent to the south which also contains medical offices. This adjacent property to the south has no other vehicle access points. Sidewalks Sidewalks are currently in place along the South Queen Street frontage of the property. There is one (1) existing sidewalk internal to the site which provides access from the rear parking lot to the building. There are no existing sidewalks providing dedicated pedestrian access onto the site from South Queen Street. Article 5, Section 18.5 of the Zoning Ordinance notes that the property owner or developer may request a waiver from the Planning Commission from the requirements of providing a sidewalk connection onto the site from South Queen Street. The Applicant has however indicated to Planning Staff that they do not intend to submit a waiver. They will instead implement the 33

Page 34

Item 5. C-22-02 Apartment at 773 South Queen Street DAC Report of February 9, 2022 Page 6 sidewalk connection from South Queen Street onto the site and connecting to existing pedestrian facilities and to the building. It is noted that the associated Floor Plan of the proposed apartment unit is showing a “mud room” with direct access to the exterior of the north side of the building. The Site Plan however does not show that there is any sidewalk, patio, or other exterior pedestrian amenity existing or proposed for this area. Lighting The Zoning Ordinance, Article 5 Section 7 requires lighting of commercial uses to provide no less than 1½ footcandles at grade. Light shall be deflected away from adjacent residential areas and shall not be distracting to traffic on adjacent roads. The Plans submitted note that “all existing site lighting is provided [and] no new site lighting is proposed.” The Plans show that one pole light exists on the north side of the rear parking lot, with a second pole light located at the eastern end of the rear parking lot. There is a single floodlight noted as being present on the southeast corner of the building itself. No new lighting schemes are proposed per this Plan submission. Dumpsters According to Zoning Ordinance, Article 5 §6.12, the Dumpster requirements for an Office or Retail space of less than 50,000 SF are two (2) Dumpsters required for the first 16,000 SF of gross floor area, and one (1) for each additional 16,000 SF of gross floor area or fraction thereof. The Plans submitted do not indicate any existing dumpster enclosure but do note that “one 4 yard trash container will be used and stored behind the building parking lot.” The note further indicates that the method of Trash Collection will be private. Signage The Plans submitted do not note any signage to exist on site; however, there is an existing monument sign located at the front of the subject site along the South Queen Street frontage. This existing sign had most recently advertised the address of the building as well as the business (dentist). If any new signage is proposed, this will be subject to the provisions of the Zoning Ordinance Article 5, Section 4 and will be subject to a separate permit application and review. No new signage is proposed in the Plans nor is any signage required per the establishment of a conditional use (apartment unit) within an existing building in the C-PO Zone. VI. 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 the “Development Area.” The site overall is noted as being 36,590 acres +/- (0.84 acres +/-); however, with the proposed apartment unit of 927 SF, this would require a minimum of one (1) tree. The Plans submitted appear to show that there are currently seven (7) trees on the subject site. Three (3) trees are noted at the front (west) of the building, and four (4) trees at the rear (east) of the building along the eastern end of the parking lot. There are five (5) further plantings shown on the Site Plan being located along the south, west, and north frontages of the main building; however, these plantings are not identified. There are no new trees or landscaping proposed for this project. 34

RECOMMENDATIONS SUGGESTED AS CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL TO MEET CODE OBJECTIVES: In accordance with the Zoning Ordinance, Article 10 §1, the Planning Commission in considering and acting upon Conditional Use 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 1.1 to 1.3. 1) Conditional Use for Apartments: The request is for the establishment of Apartment use through the Conditional Use process. The location of subject site is in proximity to other residential areas (nearby Sherwood Subdivision), to a variety of commercial, service, and office establishments, and employment opportunities. More specifically, the applicant is the new owner of the Dental Practice which shares the same building as the proposed apartment unit. a. The proposal would allow for a mixed-use of the existing building, and further promote higher density. 2) Planning Staff encourages the Applicant to implement a more formal method of trash storage, by including a dumpster enclosure in compliance with the provisions of Article 5, Section 6 of the Zoning Ordinance. The Dumpster Enclosure should be located at the rear (east) of the main building and shield any trash receptacles from the view of customers parking in the parking lot, as well as adjacent property owners. IX. ADVISORY COMMENTS TO THE APPLICANT: 1) The Planning Commission should act upon the request for waivers as part of any motion regarding this project application, or as a separate motion as necessary. Note: All waivers are at the discretion of the Planning Commission. The Commission may approve or deny waiver requests. 2) In the event, that major changes and revisions to the Conditional Use Site Plan occur in the finalization of the Conditional Use Site Plan contact the Department of Planning and Inspections. Examples include relocation of site components like paving and increases in 36

Page 37

Item 5. C-22-02 Apartment at 773 South Queen Street DAC Report of February 9, 2022 Page 9 floor area. These changes may require resubmittal for review by the Development Advisory Committee, Planning Commission, or other agencies and commissions making recommendations in regard to the Plan. 3) Following Planning Commission approval of the Conditional Use Site Plan, the Plan must be revised to meet all conditions of approval from the Development Advisory Committee or as otherwise noted. A Check Print must be submitted for review by Planning Office Staff and the other commenting agencies. Upon determination that the Plan is complete and all agency approvals have been received, copies of the Plan may be submitted for final endorsement (Final Plan Approval). 4) Other agencies and departments which participate in the Development Advisory Committee may provide additional comments related to their areas of expertise and code requirements. 5) For building renovations, 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 development or ground disturbing activities on the site the appropriate site inspections and permits are required. This includes activities to clean-up existing vegetation, the import of fill dirt, etc. 7) Construction may have an effect on the adjacent property owners and nearby travel lanes. Any work requiring the closing or rerouting of potential customers or visitors to adjacent properties should be coordinated as to offer the least amount of inconvenience to the adjacent property owners. 8) The addresses for the new apartment unit proposed will need to be confirmed with the City’s Tax Assessment Office. The existing address may be revised, or suite addresses assigned. 9) The applicant shall be aware that Conditional Use Site 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) 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. 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. 37

PLAN SUMMARY This Application is the review of a Minor Subdivision Plan to subdivide one (1) property (on two (2) tracts of land) consisting of 2.455 acres +/- into three (3) parcels (Lots 1, 2 and 3). Lot 1 (Residual) is to be 0.67 acres+/- and encompasses the bulk of the primary tract of land east of Acorn Lane and containing the one-family detached dwelling unit (single-family home). Lot 2 is to be 0.47 acres+/- and is the smaller portion of the tract of land east of Acorn Lane and contains no development. Lot 3 is the western portion of the existing tract of land west of Acorn Lane and is proposed to be 1.315 acres+/- and is currently undeveloped. The subject property is located on the east side of Acorn Lane with a tract of land on the west side of Acorn Lane. The property is zoned R-8 (One-Family Residence Zone). The owner of record is Raul M. Juarez. Property Address: 508 Acorn Lane. Tax Parcel Number: ED-05-068.15-01-10.00-000. Council District 3. Previous Applications This site was most recently the subject of Annexation and Rezoning Plan AX-13-02 lands of Raul Juarez at 508 Acorn Lane, which received a unanimous recommendation in favor of approval and rezoning from RS-1 to R-8 (One-Family Residential Zone) at the November 2013 meeting of the City of Dover Planning Commission. It received subsequent approval from the City of Dover City Council at their December 9, 2013 meeting. II. PROJECT DESCRIPTION – Minor Subdivision This Minor Subdivision Plan proposes to subdivide the property into three lots. The property is currently one parcel on two tracts of land. See the following Table for summary of the lots. Site Proposed Area Acreage Lot 1 0.67 acres+/- The bulk of the property east of Acorn Lane. (Residual) Site of existing one-family detached dwelling.

Item 6. SB-22-02 Minor Subdivision Plan for Lands of Juarez DAC Report of February 9, 2022 Page 2 As noted in the Summary Table, the existing one-family detached dwelling (single-family home) is located on what is proposed to be the new Lot 1. The proposed Lots 2 and 3 (Proposed Lot 3 is on west side of Acorn Lane and predominantly wooded) are currently vacant and there is no new development proposed. III. SUBDIVISION REGULATIONS REVIEW The procedures for subdivision of land are found in the Land Subdivision Regulations, (Dover Code of Ordinances, Appendix A). Planning Staff confirms this application as a Minor Subdivision. Therefore, the Planning Commission may find the application is subject to one public hearing and review for action by the Planning Commission followed by the administrative process to complete the Final Plat for recordation. In order to subdivide the property, the plan review must ensure that the subdivision does not create any non-conformities with the bulk standards of the Zoning Ordinance. These bulk standards include minimum lot size, front yard setbacks, side yard setbacks, rear yard setbacks, lot coverage, etc. See also discussion below under Zoning Review. IV. ZONING REVIEW R-8 Zoning District The property is zoned R-8 (One-Family Residence Zone) and is subject to the regulations of Zoning Ordinance, Article 3 §1 and Article 4 §4. The use as a one-family detached dwelling-unit (single-family home) is a permitted use in the R-8 Zone, and the proposed Lots appear to comply with the Zoning Bulk Provisions as noted in Article 4 §4 of the Zoning Ordinance. The following Table highlights some of the lot design standards for the R-8 zone: Minimum Required R-8 (one family residence zone) Lot area (sq. ft.) 8,000 Lot width (ft.) 70 Lot depth (ft.) 100 Front yard 25 Minimum side yard (ft.) 10 Total both side yard (ft.) 20 Rear yard (ft.) 30 Livable floor area/ DU (sq. ft.) - Off-street parking spaces/ dwelling units 2 Maximum Permitted Building Height: Stories 2½ Feet 35 Lot Coverage 35% V. SITE CONSIDERATIONS Site Access There is only one existing point of vehicle access onto the site, via Acorn Lane onto the eastern 53

Page 54

Item 6. SB-22-02 Minor Subdivision Plan for Lands of Juarez DAC Report of February 9, 2022 Page 3 land tract. This access is to accommodate the existing one-family detached dwelling unit which is on the proposed Lot 2. There is currently no vehicle or dedicated pedestrian access onto the tract of land west of Acorn Lane. No new access points are planned as there are currently no plans for development of the proposed Lots 2 or 3. Site access and other site features will be evaluated once development of the properties is proposed and will be required to meet all relevant Code requirements and necessary agency approvals for development to occur. Sidewalk There is no sidewalk along either the east or west frontages of Acorn Lane. Nor is there currently any sidewalk provided along the White Oak Road frontage (north) of the proposed Lot 3. The need for any site improvements or site access requirements (including sidewalks) will be assessed once any potential development of the new Lots is proposed. VI. TREE AND LANDSCAPE PLANTING The tree preservation, tree planting and landscaping requirements are subject principally to the regulations found in Zoning Ordinance, Article 5 Sections 15 and 16 and are also addressed in other various sections of code related to buffering, screening, and open space. This is not required for this Minor Subdivision Plan review. VII. 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.

VIII. RECOMMENDED ADDITIONAL CONSIDERATIONS TO MEET CODE OBJECTIVES: The Land Subdivision Regulations, Article I. Purpose, indicates that the regulations are adopted in order to promote and protect the public health, safety, convenience and general welfare; ensure the orderly growth and development of the City, the conservation, protection and proper use of land, and adequate provision for housing, recreation, circulation, utilities and services; and safeguard the City from undue future expenditure for the maintenance of streets and public spaces. 1) This Minor Subdivision Plan creates three (3) lots out of the one parcel (over two tracts of land). The proposed Lot #1 is the bulk of the tract of land east of Acorn Lane and contains the existing one-family detached dwelling unit (single-family home), and this development appears to remain compliant with R-8 zoning bulk standards. The proposed Lot #2 is currently vacant and no development is proposed at this time. The proposed Lot #3 is largely wooded but is otherwise undeveloped, and there is no new development proposed at this time. The Subdivision Plan generally appears to comply with the Land Subdivision Regulations. Other agencies may recommend additional conditions and safeguards in accordance with their areas of expertise. The Recommended Additional Considerations to Meet Code Objectives are offered for consideration by the Planning Commission. IX. ADVISORY COMMENTS TO THE APPLICANT: 1) In the event, that major changes and revisions to the Minor Subdivision Plan occur in the finalization of the Plan contact the Department of Planning and Inspections.

Item 7. City of Dover CITY OF DOVER Planning Office DEVELOPMENT ADVISORY COMMITTEE APPLICATION REVIEW COMMENTARY D.A.C. MEETING DATE: February 9, 2022 APPLICATION: Caliber Car Wash at 280 Cowgill Street FILE #: S-22-01 REVIEWING AGENCY: City of Dover Planning CONTACT PERSON: Samantha Bulkilvish, AICP PHONE #: (302) 736-7196 I. PLAN SUMMARY This application is for review of a Site Development Plan Application for construction of a 3,500 SF Car Wash facility, 19 vacuum spaces, and associated site improvements. The property is zoned C-4 (Highway Commercial Zone). The property consists of 0.78 acres (33,976.8 SF) and is located on the south side of Cowgill Street and Court Street near the corner of Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard and S. DuPont Highway. The owner of record is Neaton’s Tire Service of Delaware, and the developer is MPV Properties. Property Address: 280 Cowgill Street. Tax Parcel Number: ED-05-077.10-01-17.00-000. II. PROJECT DESCRIPTION The subject property is currently occupied by an auto repair (tire service) shop with nine (9) bays, an office, and parking. The entire 0.78 acres located on the west side of S. DuPont Highway at the corner of Cowgill Street and Court Street is completely covered with impervious surfaces. The project proposes a new one-story 3,500 SF building to be utilized as the new Car Wash Facility after the demolition of the existing building. The site is to be accessed via two access points off of Court Street: one entrance will be a queue to access the pay stations and the Car Wash and the second entrance will be an in and out entrance to access the vacuum stations and to exit the Car Wash. A third proposed bail-out lane (exit) is to connect to Cowgill Street. Additional site features include nineteen (19) parking spaces, each with accompanying vacuum cleaning equipment. There are also three (3) parking spaces which are noted as being for employee use, and do not have any associated vehicle service equipment. Surrounding Land Uses: To the south of the subject site are properties that are similarly zoned C-4 (Highway Commercial Zone) and contain an auto parts store and other retail/service establishments. To the rear (or west) of the site are residential properties zoned RG-1 (General Residence Zone). The property to the east is open space zoned ROS (Recreational and Open Space) and acts as a landscaped gateway to the City along Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard leading to Legislative Hall. The property to the north on the north side of Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard is a gas station and convenience store and is also zoned C-4 (Highway Commercial). While the subject property is in the vicinity of the intersection of Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard and S. DuPont Highway, there is no direct connection to either of these roads from the site. 66

Item 7. S-22-01 Caliber Car Wash at 280 Cowgill Street DAC Report of February 9, 2022 Page 2 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 with 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 3,500 SF the facility would require twelve (12) parking spaces. The plan appears to show a total of twenty-two (22) parking spaces. This includes nineteen (19) parking spaces with vacuum service equipment, as well as an additional three (3) parking spaces for use by employees. A loading space is not required for this type of use. 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 22 parking spaces, two bicycle parking spaces are required. Currently, none are shown on the Plans submitted; however, the applicant has reassured us that they will provide a bicycle rack to meet this requirement. V. SITE CONSIDERATIONS Access There are three points of access proposed for this site. Two entrances off of Court Street: one single lane entrance drive to get into the queue for the Car Wash, and a two-way access to get into the area where the vacuum stations will be set up or to exit from the Car Wash. The third access point is an egress only and is the bail-out lane for the Car Wash out to Cowgill Street near its cul-de-sac terminus. The design and location of these proposed access points must be reviewed by the City Department of Public Works and DelDOT. It is unclear if all three access points are necessary or if the entrances could be combined. The overall traffic circulation pattern on the site and its interaction with adjacent streets must be evaluated. Waiver Request: Sidewalks/Pedestrian Circulation Sidewalks are required along all street frontages (Zoning Ordinance, Article 5 §18). The plan does not currently show any sidewalks along the street frontage. There is a 10 ft. wide multi-use path on the opposite side of Court Street along Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard that wraps around to S. Dupont Highway. The applicant has included a Waiver for the elimination of sidewalk along the subject property’s street frontage’s of Court Street and Cowgill Street. Provided as an attachment to 67

Page 68

Item 7. S-22-01 Caliber Car Wash at 280 Cowgill Street DAC Report of February 9, 2022 Page 3 this Waiver is an exhibit showing the proposed pedestrian linkage to the site from the multi-use path along Martin Luther King, Jr. Blvd. 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. A lighting plan has not yet been proposed for this property. Dumpsters There is not a specific Dumpster requirement for this type of use. A Dumpster enclosure is proposed near the northwest corner of the site, just off the two-way entrance off Court Street. The applicant has confirmed that the dumpster enclosure will be constructed of the same materials as the principal structure (white brick) and have an opaque gate. The applicants must ensure that the dumpsters are enough to meet the trash collection and recycling needs of the site and they must specify if this will be private trash collection. Planning Staff is concerned of the prominence of this feature as it is located right off the main drive aisle near the site entrance. Another concern is its proximity to overhead electric and/or utility lines. Revaluation of the dumpster’s location may be warranted. 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 shows curbing along all paved areas throughout the site except for a curb depression in one area to allow water access to a storm drain. Details were not provided about the curbing in order to determine if the curb height is in compliance. VI. BUILDING ARCHITECTURE The Plan submission includes Elevation Drawings. Said drawings are black and white so exact colors are uncertain; however, some materials are noted and color descriptions given. The majority of the façade is a brick veneer painted white. The top portion of the building on all sides will have a blue EIFS (exterior insulation finishing system). The portion of the buildings above the windows will have gray horizontal metal wall panels up to the blue band. There will be a metal double door at the end of the building near the exit of the Car Wash that leads to the equipment room and a single metal door that leads to the Car Wash tunnel. The building has its main vehicle access point on the south side of the building with the vehicle exit on the north side of the building. The portion of the building facing Cowgill Street (east elevation) will have a series of large storefront windows. The opposite side of the building facing the vacuum stations will be mostly a white brick façade with one large storefront window. The entrance to the office portion of the building is shown on the architectural plans to be on the same side as the vehicle entrance (south end); however, the site plan shows this entrance on the west side of the building. Clarification on where this entrance will be is needed. VII. TREE PLANTING AND LANDSCAPE PLAN The submitted plan set includes a concept for the Landscaping Plan. Based on this development area of 0.78 acres (33,976.8 SF), twelve (12) trees are required to meet the tree density requirements. The Applicant has submitted a Landscape Plan with their overall submission (Sheet LP-1) which identifies 11 of the required 12 trees and a variety of other shrubs and 68

Page 69

Item 7. S-22-01 Caliber Car Wash at 280 Cowgill Street DAC Report of February 9, 2022 Page 4 ornamental plants. They have provided three (3) different tree types including two shade trees and one ornamental tree. These plantings are largely planted around the perimeter of the Site, along the street frontages. There are three trees planted internally to the site between the queue lane for the Car Wash and the vacuum stall near the south end of the site. Opaque Barrier Requirement Staff does note that due to the adjacency of this commercial project to a Residential Zone additional landscaping is required as part of an opaque barrier. According to the Zoning Ordinance, Article 5 Section 7.2 visual and sound screening shall be provided on a non- residential use when abutting a residential use. The screening shall consist of an opaque barrier at least six feet in height, accompanied by landscaping. Currently there is a fence being shown, but it is not opaque as it is shown as a chain-link fence. There is little room shown next to the property line abutting a residential use where a hedgerow or evergreens could be planted. The applicant has reassured us that they will provide an opaque barrier in the fashion of a white vinyl fence and will adjust the width of the drive aisle for the queuing lane to accommodate the hedgerow. 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) Waiver Request: Sidewalks: Standard City of Dover sidewalk is required to be installed along all public street frontages of a property (Zoning Ordinance, Article 5 Section 18.3). The plans do not show any sidewalks along the street frontage of either Court Street or Cowgill Street on this property. There are also no pedestrian connections onto the site. A Waiver for the elimination of the street frontage sidewalks was submitted by the Applicant. In addition to the written Waiver, they have provided an exhibit showing the proposed pedestrian connection onto the site. 2) An opaque barrier is required on any commercial property adjoining a residential use (Zoning Ordinance, Article 5 Section 7.2). The opaque barrier requirement includes a barrier, like a fence, masonry wall or earthen berm in addition to a hedgerow or evergreen screen. The plans do not show any type of opaque barrier nor does the current site design leave much room for a hedgerow. The applicant has confirmed that they will be adjusting the width of the drive aisle to allow for the landscape requirement of the screening barrier and will be using a white vinyl fence for their opaque barrier. 3) 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 the appearance of the dumpster enclosure should complement the architecture of the principal building on the lot (Zoning Ordinance, Article 5, Section 6). The applicant has confirmed that the dumpster enclosure would be constructed out of the same white brick that the principal structure would be constructed of and would have opaque gates. 4) Since there is the presence of a dumpster enclosure on the plans it is under our assumption 69

Page 70

Item 7. S-22-01 Caliber Car Wash at 280 Cowgill Street DAC Report of February 9, 2022 Page 5 that the trash collection will be private. Please verify this with a note on the plans. 5) City of Dover requires curb height to be six inches in all permanent parking areas. Please clarify the height of the curbing shown on the plans. (Zoning Ordinance, Article 6, Section 3). 6) 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 plan is the equivalent of the total area of the site which is 33,976.8 SF. 33,976.8/3,000 = 11.3256. This means that 12 trees are required on the site. The plans currently show 11 trees so one additional tree will need to be added. 7) Site Plan, Sheet C1.0 and subsequent pages: a. Please include the zoning of the neighboring properties. 8) Site Plan, Sheet C2.0: a. Setbacks: Front – 20’ (Court Street & Cowgill Street), Side – 15’ (adjacent to AutoZone), Rear – 10’/30’ (When adjoins a residential zone). b. Clarify the fence material and fence height. Maximum fence height is 8 feet; however, the fence cannot exceed 4 feet in the front yard setback. c. Layout Notes #2 – check the font as it has been printed as something unintelligible. 9) Site Plan, Sheet LP-1: a. The label on the Raspberry Profusion Abelia is incorrect to the left of the dumpster. b. Include a note that no tree planting shall be closer than 10 feet from any utility lines. 10) Signs are subject to a separate Sign Permit Review and approval process in the City of Dover. 11) 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 technical review requirements of other agencies. 12) 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 70

Page 71

Item 7. S-22-01 Caliber Car Wash at 280 Cowgill Street DAC Report of February 9, 2022 Page 6 intent of the Zoning Ordinance and the accomplishment of several objectives in particular listed in subsections 2.21 to 2.28. 1) Dumpster: There is concern that the Dumpster Enclosure features too prominently on site, being right at the main entrance to the site. The Applicant should relocate the Dumpster further from the right-of-way of Court Street, while also ensuring maneuverability for trash collection if possible. 2) Site Access: Staff have concerns with the location of the queue lane entrance and its proximity to the second entrance into the site, and the intersection at Court Street and Martin Luther King, Jr. Blvd. There seems to be a lot of potential traffic movements going on in this area and not a lot of room for a driver to decide where they need to go. Planning Staff encourages the applicant to reassess the plausibility of the elimination of one of the entrances on Court Street. The access/egress points from the property to the public street network are subject to review and approval by the agency of jurisdiction the City of Dover Department of Public Works and DelDOT. A redesign of the entrances may allow for the relocation of the dumpster to allow for a single entrance that splits off into the queue lane to eliminate the need for the customer to decide where to go while in the public right of way and to increase the safety of customers and people traveling along Court Street and Cowgill Street. 3) Sidewalks: A pedestrian connection is proposed from the multi-use path along Martin Luther King, Jr. Blvd. Where sidewalks cross vehicle access points a piano key type crosswalk should be provided. 4) Opaque Barrier: A redesign of the northwest corner of the site (the entrances to the site) would allow for greater space to implement the required screening along the property abutting a residential use. This screening would have to include at minimum a hedgerow with 6’ evergreens interspersed or an evergreen hedgerow that will reach at least 6’ in height at maturity. X. ADVISORY COMMENTS TO THE APPLICANT: 1) DelDOT has requested the applicant apply for a Pre-Submittal Meeting and submit trip generation data to determine if additional measures are required. It has been determined that both Court and Cowgill Street are maintained by the City of Dover Department of Public Works and therefore they will review the development plans and location of entrances/exits from the site. 2) 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. 71

Page 72

Item 7. S-22-01 Caliber Car Wash at 280 Cowgill Street DAC Report of February 9, 2022 Page 7 3) If there are changes to the architecture, building footprint, layout or square footage of the building contact the Planning Office. These changes may require review by the Planning Commission. 4) Other agencies and departments which participate in the Development Advisory Committee may provide additional comments related to their areas of expertise and code requirements. 5) Chesapeake Utilities Corporation currently serves the building at 280 Cowgill Street. Please send the natural gas equipment btu load to ensure the current service line can handle the gas load. This information can be sent to Brennan McKone at bmckone@chpk.com or you can call him at 302-382-8346. 6) 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. 7) 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. 8) 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. 9) 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. 10) 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. 11) 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. 12) 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. 72

This method may not be utilized during any phase of the project. b. Any existing water lines not to be utilized by the proposed facility must be properly abandoned at the mains in accordance with the City of Dover Department of Water & Wastewater specifications and requirements. c. The site contractor shall contact the City of Dover Department of Water & Wastewater Construction Manager at (302) 736- 7025 prior to the start of construction. A representative from the City of Dover Department of Water & Wastewater must observe and approve all City owned water and sanitary sewer interconnections and testing. All water taps must be performed by a City of Dover approved contractor. The proposed location for the water connection may need to be adjusted in the field due to conditions of the existing main. Possible conditions that would require tapping relocation include proximity to pipe joints, other taps, concrete encasements, conflict with other utilities, and the like. Test holes must be performed by the contractor to determine the best tapping location. The City of Dover will not be held responsible for field conditions requiring adjustment of the tapping location or for any work required by the contractor to make an appropriate and lawful connection. 3. The size, type, and location of all proposed and existing water lines and valves must be shown on the plan. 4. Water usage projections (peak demand or plumbing fixtures) must be submitted to our office to correctly determine the size of the domestic and irrigation (if applicable) water meter for the proposed building. These projections must be submitted prior to approval so the meter size can be placed on the final site plan. The proposed water meter must be installed in a pit per City of Dover requirements and manufacturer’s recommendations. Also, a dual check valve is required downstream of the meter. 5. The domestic service, fire main connection and valves must be clearly shown for each building. A valve must be installed at the tee to isolate combined fire and domestic water service to the building from the water loop. Typically, this valve is installed at the tee or an acceptable distance from the building. A valve must be provided on the domestic water service, which must be tapped off of the combined eight-inch (8”) fire/domestic service outside of the building. The domestic water tap and valve should be as close to the building as possible. Typically, the domestic tap and valve are located within five feet (5’) to ten feet (10’) of the building. A blow up detail of this layout is recommended. 6. Provide a construction detail for the proposed restraining system for the fire main located within the buildings. The Department of Public Works will test and inspect all fire mains to a blind flange located inside the buildings. The blind flange with tap is used for hydrostatic pressure testing (200 psi for two (2) hours) and dechlorination. The flange must be restrained in the direction of the pipe entering the facility.

Item 7. 1-7-2022 THIS DRAWING PREPARED AT THE STORMWATER NARRATIVE 1. THE PROJECT SITE "CALIBER CAR WASH" IS LOCATED IN THE CITY OF DOVER, KENT COUNTY, ON THE FORMER GOODYEAR TIRE AND SERVICE PROPERTY AND DEVELOPMENT. SITE IS ACCESSED BY COURT STREET AND ALSO ACCESSED BY COWGILL ST. PREVIOUS PROPERTY USE WAS AN AUTO SHOP. PROPOSED USE IS A CAR WASH AUTOMOTIVE SERVICE. 2. EXISTING SOILS ONSITE ARE PRIMARILY HYDROLOGIC SOIL TYPE D, AND THE SITE IS FLAT (2% OR LESS). 3. THE EXISTING HYDROLOGY OF THE SITE IS EITHER MANAGED BY ONSITE STORM INLETS OR SHEET FLOWS OFF THE PROPERTY TO EXISTING ROADS, ULTIMATELY VIA UNDERGROUND STORM PIPE SYSTEMS. APPROXIMATELY HALF OF THE SITE'S RUNOFF IS CAPTURED BY TWO STORM INLETS ONSITE, AND THE REMAINDER OF THE SITE'S RUNOFF SHEET FLOWS DC METRO OFFICE OFFSITE TO COWGILL STREET, COURT STREET, AND 'A' STREET WHICH ABUTS RESIDENCES. SEE SHEET C6.0 FOR EXISTING REVISION DESCRIPTION STORM INLET DRAINAGE. 4. IN POST DEVELOPMENT, THE HYDROLOGY OF THE SITE WILL BE MAINTAINED IN THE SAME MANNER. HOWEVER, NO RUNOFF WILL SHEET FLOW OFFSITE TO 'A' STREET AND THUS ADJACENT RESIDENCES. ADDITIONALLY, LESS IMPERVIOUS AREA IS PROPOSED WITH LANDSCAPING ELEMENTS INTRODUCED. FINALLY, THE BUILDING WILL DISCHARGE RUNOFF TO THE EAST VIA DOWNSPOUTS INTO THE LANDSCAPED BUFFER AREA, AND USE THE IMPERVIOUS DISCONNECTION METHOD TO ALLOW YOUR VISION ACHIEVED THROUGH OURS.1054 31st St Ste 115 NW WASHINGTON DC 20007 RUNOFF TO INFILTRATE INTO THE GROUND AND FURTHER REDUCE FLOODING DOWNSTREAM. SEE SHEET C6.1 FOR PROPOSED STORM INLET DRAINAGE. 5. THE EXISTING PARCEL AREA (PLUS LIMITED DISTURBANCE DIRECTLY OUTSIDE PARCEL) HAS A CURVE NUMBER (CN = 97) HIGHER THAN THE PROPOSED PARCEL AREA (PLUS LIMITED DISTURBANCE DIRECTLY OUTSIDE PARCEL) CURVE NUMBER IN POST CONSTRUCTION (CN = 93).
