Planning Commission The Applicant has expressed interest in annexing into the City
Recommendation: as they wish to connect to City Sewer and/or Water due to a
failing Septic System. There was a Public Hearing held by the
Planning Commission on February 22, 2022, where Staff spoke
on behalf of the application as the applicant was absent from the

The Planning Commission then closed the Public Hearing and
voted in favor of the annexation with a proposed R-8 and
SWPOZ zoning with six (6) votes in favor and no votes in
opposition (three members absent).
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.
I. 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.
II. 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.
III. 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:

v. There shall be no exterior effect such as noise, traffic, odor, dust, smoke, gas, fumes,
radiation, or electromagnetic interference.
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 compared 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 efforts.
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 altern ative 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
Page 11
Page 12
AX-22-01 Lands of Ernestine F. Huff at 166 Mifflin Road
Planning Commission Recommendation Report of February 22, 2022
D
Item #3.
Page 7
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
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 proj ect
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.
V. 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.

Recommendation of Planning Commission:
The application was represented by Samantha Bulkilvish, Planner for the City of Dover in the
absence of Mrs. Ernestine Huff. Following a Public Hearing on February 22, 2022, where no
members of the public who spoke regarding the proposed annexation and rezoning, the Planning
Commission voted in favor of the annexation with the proposed R-8 zoning (One Family
Residence Zone) and the SWPOZ (Source Water Protection Overlay Zone) with six (6) votes
in favor and no votes in opposition (three members absent). See excerpt of Draft Meeting
Minutes of the Planning Commission Meeting.
Submission of Plan of Services
As required by 22 Delaware Code §101, a Plan of Services has been submitted to the Office of State
Planning Coordination. A copy of the Plan of Services form and Attachment List is included as well
as a copy of the Letter of Approval (of the Plan of Services) from the Office of State Planning
Coordination. A copy of the full Plan of Services submission with all attachments is on file with the
Planning Office.
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.

CITY OF DOVER PLANNING COMMISSION
November 15, 2021
Excerpt from Meeting Minutes – Draft
The Meeting of the City of Dover Planning Commission was held on Tuesday, February 22, 2022
at 7:00 PM as a virtual Meeting using the phone/videoconferencing system WebEx. The Meeting
Session was conducted with Chair Mrs. Maucher presiding. Members Present were. Mr. Hartman,
Mrs. Denny, Mrs. Welsh, Mr. Baldwin, Mrs. Maucher and Mrs. Malone.
Staff members present were Mrs. Dawn Melson-Williams, Mr. Julian Swierczek, Ms. Samantha
Bulkilvish, Mr. Jason Lyon and Mrs. Kristen Mullaney.
AX-22-01 – Lands of Ernestine F. Huff at 166 Mifflin Road – Public Hearing and Review for
Recommendation to City Council of an Annexation Request and Rezoning Request for a parcel of
land totaling 25,000 SF located at 166 Mifflin Road, Dover. The property is currently zoned RS-1
(Residential Single Family Zone) in Kent County. The proposed zoning is R-8 (One Family
Residence Zone) and SWPOZ (Source Water Protection Overlay Zone). The property is located
on the west side of Mifflin Road approximately 300 ft south of Woodmill Drive. The annexation
category according to Dover’s 2019 Comprehensive Plan is Category 1: High Priority Annexation
Areas and the land use designation is Residential Low Density. The owner is Ernestine F. Huff.
Property Address: 166 Mifflin Road. Tax Parcel: ED-05-076.14-01-02.00-000. Proposed Council
District 1. Ordinance #2022-01. The First Reading of this Annexation Request was completed on
January 10, 2022. Public Hearing before the Planning Commission is scheduled for February 22,
2022 and a Public Hearing at City Council on March 14, 2022.
Representatives: None
Ms. Bulkilvish stated that this is an Annexation Application for 166 Mifflin Road for the Lands
of Ernestine Huff. The property is about 0.75 acres or 25,000 SF. It is a small enclave on Mifflin
Road. Slowly but surely we are gobbling these up. The property is currently zoned RS-1
(Residential Single Family Zone). The proposed zoning is R-8 (One Family Residence Zone).
The back corner is also subject to the SWPOZ (Source Water Protection Overlay Zone). It is a
Tier 3 – Excellent Recharge Area. The property is a Category 1: High Priority Annexation Area
in our Comprehensive Plan. That means that it is an enclave and easily brought into the city
limits. The proposed Land Use Designation in the Comprehensive Plan is Residential Low
Density; therefore, the R-8 (One Family Residence Zone) is appropriate. The present use is a
single family dwelling. The proposed use would also be that. Currently, the property is on septic
and well water. This is the main reason why Mrs. Huff has requested the Annexation because she
wishes to connect to the City sewer and water. The property is not served by the City’s Electric
Department; however, it would be on the applicant to make contact with the City’s Electric
Department if they were to chose to change that. We have also submitted the Plan of Services to
the Office of State Planning Coordination; and they have, as of last Thursday, given us a letter of
approval for our Plan of Services.
Mrs. Malone questioned how many other parcels along Mifflin Road are still out of the city
limits? Responding to Mrs. Malone, Ms. Bulkilvish stated that it is just a hand-full.

Item #3.
Mrs. Melson-Williams stated that this property is one of the last ones that is in the middle of
Mifflin Road. There are a number of properties still at the north end and then numerous
properties towards the corner of Mifflin Road and North Street or Hazlettville Road.
Mrs. Malone asked if they also want to hook into City electric or are they were really doing it for
the water and sewer. Responding to Mrs. Malone, Mrs. Melson-Williams stated that she believes
that most are seeking annexation related to sewer or water issues and predominately sewer. With
the City’s Comprehensive Plan, if a property is in a Category 1 Annexation Area, it requires that
they annex into the City of Dover in order to be provided with City water and sewer service.
Mrs. Bulkilvish has an image up and it shows where the pink lines are (indicating properties not
in the City). There is an area to the north of the small traffic circle that is there where lots are not
in the city limits and then also down at the south end of Mifflin Road as you make that turn onto
North Street/Hazlettville Road.
Mrs. Maucher opened a public hearing and after seeing no one wishing to speak, closed the
public hearing.
Mrs. Welsh moved to recommend approval to City Council for application AX-22-01 Lands of
Ernestine Huff at 166 Mifflin Road inclusive of the rezoning request (to R-8 with SWPOZ),
seconded by Mrs. Malone and the motion was carried 6-0 with Mr. Cooper, Mr. Roach and Dr.
Jones absent. Mrs. Welsh voting yes; it's definitely something that is needed for the City as
evidence of the comments by the DAC and it is a good thing for both the City and the owner of
the property. Mrs. Denney voting yes; obviously in what she has read since she was appointed,
both the Comprehensive Plan and developmentally it is a High Priority Annexation Area. We
have a homeowner who is willing to annex into the City and she thinks that for those reasons she
agrees that we should vote for it. She has no issues with the R-8 (One Family Residence Zone).
Mr. Hartman voting yes; the subject property is in the 2019 Comprehensive Plan as a Category
1: High Priority Annexation Area and the R-8 (One Family Residence Zone) is consistent with
the surrounding areas. Mr. Baldwin voting yes; based on all of the reasons previously stated.
Mrs. Malone voting yes; for reasons stated. Mrs. Maucher voting yes; for reasons previously
stated.

Item #3.
Municipal Annexation Plan of Services
Pursuant to Title 22, Delaware Code, §101, any city or town proposing to extend its boundaries,
irrespective of any municipal charter provisions, whether such extension is proposed by action of the
General Assembly or pursuant to the provisions of a home rule charter, must submit a Plan of
Services to the Office of State Planning Coordination. The Plan of Services must be received by our
office for review and acceptance at least 20 working days prior to the final discretionary action taken
by the municipal legislative body. Please review your charter to identify the final discretionary action
for your particular jurisdiction. For example, in some municipalities, the act of voting to hold a
special election obligates the jurisdiction to annex the property in advance, pending the outcome of
the election. For your information, provisions of the Delaware Code applicable to annexations are
attached at the end of the Plan of Services.
• If you complete the form electronically, the template will expand as you type. You must also send a
signed original form through the regular mail. To submit attachments electronically, place your
cursor in the area indicated at the end of the document and use the Insert function on your toolbar.
• A completed Plan of Services demonstrates the ability of your municipality to provide utilities and
public services to the area proposed for annexation. We welcome the inclusion of supplemental
materials that illustrate the character of the site, any proposed development, and the impact the
proposed annexation will have on your community.
• The form and all attachments must be fully completed at the time of submission. The Plan of
Services will not be reviewed unless all attachments have been provided. You can use the list

1 The Office of State Planning Coordination has final discretion and is available to help your
municipality evaluate whether specific parcels meet these guidelines or merit additional
consideration due to unusual boundary configurations or other special factors. An enclave is
defined for the purpose of evaluating this Plan of Services as an individual lot, piece or parcel of
land, a group of parcels or an entire subdivision of record; where
a. the boundaries are not less than 50% contiguous with the boundaries of an annexing
municipal corporation; and which is designated by the municipality's most recent certified
comprehensive plan as an annexation area; and
b. is lawfully accessible by vehicular traffic over lands lying within the annexing
municipal corporation; and
c. is receiving public services such as water, sewer, electric, police protection, fire
protection or trash collection, from the said municipal corporation, its municipal electric
company, or any water and/or sewer authority of which the said municipal corporation is a
member; or
d. in addition to item B, is not currently receiving public services but will have available
such public services as are provided to other properties within the annexing municipal
corporation whether by the said municipal corporation, its municipal electric company, any
water and/or sewer authority of which the said municipal corporation is a member, or by a
public utility regulated by the Delaware Public Service Commission.
2 Enterprise funds, typically for municipal utilities, are financed by user fees for the utilities. The
purpose of enterprise funds is to provide services to consumers at a price that will cover both the
current cost of operations and the maintenance and financing of necessary capital assets.
Provisions of the Delaware Code Applicable to Annexations
Title 22 § 101 Annexation by city or town
Any city or town proposing to extend its boundaries, irrespective of any municipal charter provisions,
whether such extension is proposed by action of the General Assembly or pursuant to the provisions
of a home rule charter, except any proposed annexation that has been submitted to the Office of
State Planning Coordination prior to the effective date of this Act for review, shall conform to the
following provisions:
(a) All annexations must be consistent with the most recently adopted municipal comprehensive plan
meeting the requirements of Title 22, Chapter 7, Delaware Code. The area(s) being considered must
be depicted as area(s) for future annexation on the adopted plan. If a municipality does not have an

annexation, it shall prepare and adopt a plan or plan amendment within 12 months of the effective
date of this Act. The municipality shall not approve any annexations until such plan or plan
amendment is adopted, notwithstanding any other charter provisions; except that during the 12-
month period a municipality may consider an annexation of already developed parcels where the
proposed use(s) will not change from that currently authorized in the adjacent jurisdiction and where
the primary purpose of the annexation is to address existing public health or safety issues such as,
but not limited to, failing on-site wastewater disposal systems or contaminated or inadequate drinking
water. In such cases the provisions of §101 (b) through (D of this section shall not apply.
(b) A city or town shall prepare a plan of services indicating those services it expects to provide to the
newly annexed area, how such services will be provided, and the fiscal and operating capabilities of
the municipality to provide such services. Should any services be provided by another jurisdiction or
a public utility regulated by the Delaware Public Service Commission, the written comments of such
provider on the provider's ability to provide the necessary services for the proposed annexation shall
be obtained and included in the plan of services. The study shall be conducted in accordance with
standards or criteria established by the Cabinet Committee on State Planning Issues as administered

Item #3.
by the Office of State Planning Coordination.
(c) At the time of annexation the jurisdiction shall by ordinance rezone the area being annexed to a
zoning classification consistent with the adopted comprehensive plan or development strategy.
(d) A municipality proposing annexation must fully comply with the provisions of Chapter 92, Title 29,
Delaware Code as to State notice, and must demonstrate that it has notified all other affected
jurisdictions, conducted a public hearing, and provided a comment period of at least 30 days before
formal annexation. The city or town proposing annexation shall file with the State Office of Planning
Coordination any written comments received concerning such proposed annexation together with
any response(s) thereto.
(e) The Advisory Council on Planning Coordination shall establish a mechanism for resolving
disputes between jurisdictions regarding annexations. The mechanism developed by the Council
shall address: determination of how the costs for the dispute resolution process are born among the
parties; timeline for the dispute resolution process; and extent to which the dispute resolution process
will be enforceable.
Title 22 § 702. Comprehensive development plan
(a) A planning commission established by any incorporated municipality under this chapter shall
prepare a comprehensive plan for the city or town or portions thereof as the commission deems
appropriate. It is the purpose of this section to encourage the most appropriate uses of the physical
and fiscal resources of the municipality and the coordination of municipal growth, development and
infrastructure investment actions with those of other municipalities, counties and the State through a
process of municipal comprehensive planning.
(b) Comprehensive plan means a document in text and maps, containing at a minimum, a municipal
development strategy setting forth the jurisdiction's position on population and housing growth within
the jurisdiction, expansion of its boundaries, development of adjacent areas, redevelopment
potential, community character, and the general uses of land within the community, and critical

PRESENTATION - 2021 DOVER FIRE DEPARTMENT ANNUAL REPORT
Dover Fire Chief David Carey reviewed a Power Point presentation depicting highlights of the
2021 Annual Report for the Dover Fire Department.
Responding to Mr. Anderson, Chief Carey stated that there were no serious injuries in 2021 and that
members sustained minor injuries that they handled on their own.
Responding to Mr. Anderson, Chief Carey explained they have talked about reaching out to
Delaware Technical and Community College and Delaware State University about doing recruitment
through their programs. He stated that Delaware Technical and Community College has a Paramedic
Page 34

Item #4.
CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF FEBRUARY 28, 2022 PAGE 2
Program, as well as the Homeland Security Program. Chief Carey further explained that the Dover
Fire Department has not reached that phase of recruitment, and he hopes to this year. The goal this
year is to reach out to the area high schools. He stated that they used to go to local high schools every
year, but with COVID that stopped.
Responding to Mr. Anderson, Chief Carey stated that the bunk rooms at each station were $325,000
and the combined total was $650,000. The funding was provided through the state appropriations
of the county money received and funded through donations received from the mailers sent out once
a year. Chief Carey advised that it was at no cost to the City of Dover. He explained that they asked
the city to waive the permit fees for the renovation because of being a volunteer organization and
the fire department for the City of Dover but they asked for no money for the renovation.
Responding to Mr. Neil, Chief Carey explained that over pressure is linked to a computer program,
but it has to do with over pressurization of containers. He stated that if they go to a gas leak and it
comes out to be that the system was over pressurized and it was released into the atmosphere there
are relief valves on a gas line or on a propane tank that would release the excess gas into the
atmosphere.
Responding to Mr. Rocha, Chief Carey explained that there is a total of 213 members on the current
roster, however only 44 are now active. He further explained that active means they make over 125
calls a year keeping their membership status. As a new member coming in, you need to make 125
calls a year to move on through the membership status. There are approximately 80 members that
have ridden a fire truck in the past year, that could be one call or a thousand calls. However, there
are only 44 active members.
Responding to Mr. Rocha, Chief Carey explained that when referring to the 213, there are members
that do not respond any longer. He gave the example of his father. He still comes to the firehouse,
however, he does not ride the apparatus anymore. Chief Carey advised that the members do get the
notification, but they do not ride fire apparatus any longer because their ability to perform the job
is not quite what it used to be.
Responding to Mr. Rocha, Chief Carey stated that if they had 60 to 65 volunteers that made 125 calls
a year, he believes they would be doing well. He further explained that it is causing a strain on the
active members. Chief Carey noted that the members attend training every Tuesday night and they
are also training on the weekends to learn new information to become better firefighters, on top of
responding to calls every day.
Responding to Dr. Pillsbury, Chief Carey explained that if Dover was a paid fire department there
would be shifts. Most paid departments run off of 4 shifts and it would take probably between 100
to 160 firefighters. He noted that it would cost roughly $14 or $15 million to have a paid fire
department in the City of Dover.
Responding to Dr. Pillsbury, Chief Carey stated that the City of Dover gives a contribution to the
Fire Department in the amount of $360,000 a year. The donation is applied to the maintenance of
Page 35
Page 36
D
Item #4.
CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF FEBRUARY 28, 2022 PAGE 3
the fire apparatus and also funds half of the turnout gear. The City of Dover purchases half of that
a gear for the firefighters and does maintenance on their air packs. Air tanks are what the firefighters
wear on their back to go inside buildings and the rescue tools that are used on scene.
Responding to Dr. Pillsbury, Chief Carey explained that with everything that the City does for the
fire department now, including giving the yearly contribution, staffing five dispatchers and an
administrative assistant at the Fire Department daily, the City's investment to the Fire Department
is approximately 1.5 million. The City also pays the truck payments on the fire apparatus. An average
fire truck, like the ladder truck in the slide show, that's a $1.8 million fire truck. It is an investment
for the City of Dover to provide the citizens the best apparatus possible for the volunteer firefighters
to do their job and to help them. He could not give a definitive answer, but stated it would not be
what you would pay for a paid fire department.
Chief Carey told council they are more than welcome to visit the fire department at any time. He
told them to let him know and he will meet them at the Firehouse and do a walk through and show
them the apparatus. He also said that they are planning an orientation night for City Council and area
elected officials to have them attend the fire school to put on gear to better understand what
firefighters go through and why they make some of the requests.
Responding to Mr. Boggerty, Chief Carey explained that the Little Creek fire was very close to
several of those at the Fire Department. He stated that all of the Dover firefighters that were there
touched one of those victims at some point during the rescue. Whether it had been pulling the person
out of the window, doing CPR on the roof of the porch, or taking them down the ladder and running
them to an ambulance. He further explained that firefighters from Dover played a role in every part
of the Little Creek fire.
Responding to Mr. Boggerty, Chief Carey stated that the Chief called in St. Francis's Critical Incident
Stress Management (CISM) team and a crisis intervention team to talk to several members during
the Little Creek fire. They all met as a group afterwards and they provided some assistance. Chief
Carey advised that the State of Delaware has a Critical Incident Stress Management (CISM) team
as well that the department can utilize. He noted that all the fire companies, EMS workers, nurses,
and the doctor that worked on the patients attended a meeting with CISM team at the Dover Police
Department. They had a very good discussion and then they were broken down into groups by
departments and had someone talk to them as well.
Responding to Mr. Hare, Chief Carey stated that Delaware State University (DSU) has the most false
alarms. He advised that the school had four the day before but none that day at DSU. Some of the
alarms are from commercial businesses throughout the city. The Fire Marshal's Office is working
hard on trying to get this resolved, but they need some help to push the issue and get things fixed.
They are doing the best job that they possibly can to help.
Responding to Mr. Taylor, Chief Carey explained how alarms are handled at the school, noting that
Delaware State University’s police do check the buildings. He noted that there are some instances
where they are not sure what is going on and they need the Fire Department on the scene. He further
Page 36
Page 37
D
Item #4.
CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF FEBRUARY 28, 2022 PAGE 4
explained that if they get there and they have smoke in the building, the firefighters automatically
go.
Responding to Dr. Pillsbury, Chief Carey stated that a fine is assessed through the City Fire
Marshal’s Office, in accordance with the Dover Code. He advised that the amount was just increased
and he thought it was $300.00; however, he was not certain.
Responding to Dr. Pillsbury, Chief Carey explained that the City Fire Marshal’s Office issues a fine
after three incidences. He further explained that after you have three false alarms, then you get your
first fine and then every instance thereafter the fine amount increases, capping at $500.00. Chief
Carey advised that the money goes to the City of Dover General Fund.
Responding to Dr. Pillsbury, Chief Carey stated that he did not know the answer to whether or not
Delaware State University students were being held accountable for false alarms, but he would find
out and get back to Dr. Pillsbury.
Responding to Dr. Pillsbury, Chief Carey explained that some of the calls that they respond to at
Delaware State University are burnt food in a microwave, and another is when students are using a
curling iron and somehow their hair smokes and sets the smoke detector off.
Responding to Mr. Sudler, Chief Carey explained that if the smoke detector goes off because there
is smoke, that is not a false alarm. The detector's actually acting as it is supposed to. A false alarm
is if the smoke detector activates for no reason.
Responding to Mr. Sudler, Chief Carey advised that if someone pulled the fire alarm and ran, that
would be a malicious alarm. A false alarm would be the smoke detector in the ceiling just went off
for no reason and activated the fire alarm. Chief Carey stated that sometimes it is caused by dust that
gets into the smoke detector over time due to the lack of maintenance. He also noted that spider webs
can get into smoked detectors causing the photoelectric eye inside the smoke detector to think it is
smoke and activate the fire alarm. Chief Carey explained that is caused by a lack of maintenance and
cleaning of the systems and he recommended annual cleaning.
Responding to Mr. Sudler, Chief Carey stated that in the past they have used survey monkey. He
went on to explain that in the past couple years, and this past December, they used a survey for
training. They asked what the firefighters would like to see when it comes to training, what have
they done too much of, what they would like to see more of, and what training would interest them
in the future.
Responding to Mr. Sudler, Chief Carey explained that the training survey was the first they have
done through Microsoft Teams and it worked out well and the fire department is transitioning to
Microsoft teams.
Responding to Mr. Sudler, Chief Carey explained that he did have someone on the Diversity, Equity
and Inclusion committee but that person left and is now working in the Code Enforcement

Department.
Responding to Mr. Sudler, Chief Carey explained that they treat everyone equally and everyone is
provided the same training and the same opportunities. It does not matter how old the person is, or
where they came from. The fire department needs hands and bodies to help perform the job.
Responding to Mr. Sudler, Chief Carey stated that they have eight women who are active.
Mr. Hare moved to accept the 2021 Dover Fire Department Annual Report, seconded by
Mr. Neil and unanimously carried.
PRESENTATION - 2021 PLANNING AND INSPECTIONS ANNUAL REPORT
Mrs. Dawn Melson-Williams, Interim Planning and Community Development Director, reviewed
a Power Point presentation depicting highlights of the 2021 Annual Report for the Planning and
Inspections Department (Exhibit #1).
Mr. Hugg commended the Planning and Inspections staff for all the work that they had done during
the year while he was in the department. He stated that something that Mrs. Melson-Williams did
bit fully touch on was how valuable the planning staff is in the economic development and business
recruitment efforts. Mr. Hugg stated that they provide information, mapping, and zoning
information.
Responding to Mr. Neil, Mrs. Melson-Williams explained that the estimated number of vacant
buildings is 160. She went on to say that vacant buildings can be a dynamic number in that if they
become occupied, then they are no longer on the vacant building list. The number registered in a
calendar year does not necessarily mean that they are still vacant as of January 1st the next year
because there is some fluctuation with vacancies. Mrs. Melson-Williams stated that she would look
for more hard, detailed numbers. There are some vacant buildings that have been vacant for a
significant period of time and there is a vacant building fee that impacts the owner. Mrs. Melson-
Williams noted that there may be some that are just recently vacant that have been recently registered
on that list, but she would get more information
Responding to Mr. Taylor, Mrs. Melson-Williams explained that EV charging stations are a new
piece of technology coming on the scene, but the City code currently does not have that as a
requirement. The planning staff have been encouraging EV charging stations in new development
projects by asking, have you looked at them, are they planning for that infrastructure. There are
jurisdictions that have made that a part of their code requirements and there are building code
revisions that also make EV a requirement in new construction to some level. Mrs. Melson-Williams
advised that it is certainly something that the Planning Department thinks the City needs to be
looking at, given the percentage of the various part manufacturers who are striving to meet certain
percentages in the not so distant future. She advised that the Planning Department would love to
have a hybrid or an EV vehicle as part of their fleet. She also noted that there are several staff
members in the Planning Department that have a hybrid or EV vehicle as personal vehicles. Mrs.
Melson-Williams stated that the population is moving in that direction and the City certainly wants
Page 38
Page 39

Item #4.
CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF FEBRUARY 28, 2022 PAGE 6
to be prepared whether it is in a public setting where they can make use of a charging station or
whether they would like to do that at home to make sure that the electric infrastructure serving their
home can also handle it as well.
Responding to Mr. Rocha, Mrs. Melson-Williams stated that in the area of the Northeast corner of
Governor's Avenue and Water Street, there have been small steps towards what will become a Kent
County Family Court and in fact there is a first reading referral this evening. She further explained
that the area has some environmental challenges that the project team has most significantly been
working with the Division of Natural Resources and Environmental Control and the Environmental
Protection Agency. They have seen one parking lot project for one of the properties that has a
building on the green, but has a rear parking. They need to plan for it. They have received a series
of demolition permits for the remaining buildings located on that east side of Governor's Avenue.
They are in for review and hopefully the State of Delaware will have their contract on board to take
care of those which have been on our vacant buildings list.
Responding to Mr. Rocha, Mrs. Melson-Williams explained that there are a number of things
working behind the scenes, there is rezoning on the agenda this evening and applications that they
expect this spring related to site development activities that will need to appear before the Historic
District Commission and Planning Commission.
Responding to Mr. Rocha, Mrs. Melson-Williams stated that the Northeast corner of McKee and
College Roads did go through a conditional use site plan review in recent months for a Royal Farms
with a car wash facility in addition to gas pumps. That location is currently in the Site Development
Plan Review process. She explained that they have not finalized their plan at this point, but there is
no indication that they have abandoned that plan. It is time to figure out their entrances with DelDOT
and get those approvals and the final detailing of that project. She stated that it is a more recent
application to the Planning Commission.
Responding to Mr. Anderson, Mrs. Melson-Williams explained that one program is the Downtown
Development District Program. She stated that the Planning Department could gather some more
hard numbers. There is some information in the presentation that gives the main focus on housing
opportunities that have taken advantage of that program, but there are some numbers and they do
track it by year. She responded that the department could put together some information and perhaps
give the City Council an update on the Downtown Development District program overall, especially
since they are going to be moving into what we believe is a process for renewal of that district.
Responding to Mr. Anderson, Mrs. Melson-Williams explained for that location there was some
anticipation of a potential Golden Corral. The property has a site plan that was a master plan for
several multi-tenant buildings and it did have a restaurant site on it. She further explained that it did
have final plan approval, but we've not seen forward movement for taking the next step to actually
move forward with the full process of permitting for that location. They are not doing anything at
the moment, but it is still possible.
Responding to Mr. Sudler, Mrs. Melson-Williams explained that she is not fully versed in the vacant
Page 39
Page 40
D
Item #4.
CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF FEBRUARY 28, 2022 PAGE 7
buildings ordinance provisions, but she believes there is relief from the vacant building fee if the
property is actively listed for sale. It could be listed for sale, but she does not know if the City of
Dover Code goes into the intent behind the posting for sale. It is a program that has been in place for
a number of years that is probably due a look at it again to see what is working and what is not
working in that program. So we could certainly take a look at that. She further explained that there
are certain thresholds or criteria that must be met in order for the fee to not apply to a particular
location.
Responding to Mr. Sudler, Mrs. Melson-Williams explained that she is not as familiar with that
portion of the vacant buildings ordinance, however she does think that it sets up a time frame that
even if you have had it listed for a certain period of time, that it if it hasn’t sold then a registration
fee is imposed.
Responding to Mr. Sudler, Mrs. Melson-Williams stated that certain divisions of the department
have not had openings for a hiring process in a number of years. The front office staff are office
assistant level positions. She further explained that she was not privy to what the application pool
looked like the last time they had to fill a position in that area. She stated they do have three
individuals that currently serve there, but the question of racial diversity across the department is
probably similar to what it is citywide at this point.
Responding to Mr. Sudler, Mrs. Melson-Williams explained that the Human Resources Department
is involved in the posting all job openings and are the initial recipient of the applications that are
filed. She further stated that in her experience of hiring practices in the past, all applications were
forwarded to the staff department head or supervisor for review as part of the selection of whittling
the applicant pull down to a manageable interview set.
Mr. Sudler stated that to assist Council in understanding some of the concerns or issues surrounding
diversity would be helpful for the Human Resources Department to do an annual report. It could
also help in regards to some of the applications, some of the qualifications, and some of the
concerns we may see for why we are having a problem with selecting more diverse employees.
Mr. Sudler stated that a lot of questions that the Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Committee have are
in regards to the workforce, work environment, and conditions, Mr. Sudler stated that he believes
Human Resources should help the Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Committee have a better
understanding as to what areas we need to strengthen..
Mr. Boggerty responded to the discussion stating that there is an annual Human Resources report
required by the Federal Government titled EEO-1.
Mr. Neil moved to accept the 2021 Planning and Inspections Annual Report, seconded by

REZONING REQUEST FOR PROPERTIES LOCATED AT 411 S. GOVERNORS AVENUE,
429 S. GOVERNORS AVENUE, 435 SOUTH GOVERNORS AVENUE, 439 SOUTH
GOVERNORS AVENUE/117 W. WATER STREET, 441 S. GOVERNORS AVENUE, AND
447 S. GOVERNORS AVENUE- FIRST READING OF PROPOSED ORDINANCE #2022-02
A request was received to rezone properties located at 411 S. Governors Avenue, 429 S. Governors
Avenue, 435 South Governors Avenue, 439 South Governors Avenue/117 W. Water Street, 441 S.
Governors Avenue, and 447 S. Governors Avenue consisting of 1.74 +/- acres, owned by the State
of Delaware and an alley. The properties are currently zoned IO (Institutional and Office Zone) and
subject to the SWPOZ (Source Water Protection Overlay Zone), and the proposed zoning is IO
(Institutional and Office Zone) subject to SWPOZ (Source Water Protection Overlay Zone) and H
(Historic District Zone). (Tax Parcels: ED-05-077.09-03-37.00-000, ED-05-077.09-03-48.00-000,
ED-05-077.09-03-50.00-000, ED-05-077.09-03-51.00-000, ED-05-077.09-03-52.00-000, ED-05-
077.09-03-61.00-000, and an alley; Planning Reference: Z-22-01 and HI-22-02; Fourth Council
District)
Prior to amending the zoning ordinances and zoning map of the City of Dover, a public hearing is
required.
In accordance with Section 1-9 of the Dover Code, Council acknowledged the First Reading of
Proposed Ordinance #2014-02 as read by the City Clerk, by title only, as follows:

Item #4.
CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF FEBRUARY 28, 2022 PAGE 9
ORDINANCE #2022-02 AMENDING THE ZONING ORDINANCE AND ZONING MAP OF THE
CITY OF DOVER BY CHANGING THE ZONING DESIGNATION OF PROPERTIES LOCATED
AT 411 S. GOVERNORS AVENUE, 429 S. GOVERNORS AVENUE, 435 SOUTH
GOVERNORS AVENUE, 439 SOUTH GOVERNORS AVENUE/117 W. WATER STREET, 441
S. GOVERNORS AVENUE, AND 447 S. GOVERNORS AVENUE
Responding to Mr. Anderson, Mrs. Melson-Williams stated that the request is to expand the
boundaries of the Historic District to fully encompass that block on the east side of Governor’s
Avenue to the north of West Water Street. The land holdings that are targeted for redevelopment
as the Family Court Structure places part of the holdings within the Historic District while others are
not. She further explained that the attempt for rezoning is to bring the entire land holding into the
Historic District Zone. It clarifies the process so that the entire building would be in the Historic
District rather than half of a building. The use of the property is governed by the Institutional and
Office Zone (IO) that is applied to the property.
Responding to Mr. Anderson, Mrs. Melson-Williams further explained that bringing the property
into the Historic District, makes a more clear definition of the boundaries of the historic district in
that area. She went on to say that the buildings are not subject to what would be the provisions for
demolition in the Historic District. There is one building at the corner of Bank Lane and Governors
Avenue that has already moved through the appropriate process for review because of its location
in the Historic District and Historic District Commission did grant Architectural Review
Certification to demolish the property.
Mrs. Melson-Williams then stated that with a property in the Historic District there is some greater
flexibility when it comes down to placement of the building related to maintaining character and
street scape of the general area. It is advantageous for the entire tracked area to be within the Historic
District. The more deliberative process and questions would play out through the review process of
the rezoning application before the Historic District Commission and Planning Commission and
returning to City Council in April.
Mr. Hare moved to refer the request to the Planning Commission on March 21, 2022, the Historic
District Commission on March 24, 2022, and set a public hearing for April 11, 2022 at 6:30 p.m.
The motion was seconded by Mr. Neil and unanimously carried.
CITY MANAGER'S ANNOUNCEMENTS
Mr. Hugg, City Manager, stated that the Frito-Lay Company, who is located presently in Tudor
Industrial Park, has just announced that they will be occupying a 7,200 square foot new warehouse
on Lafferty lane that is under construction. The City of Dover continues to see expansion of
economic development.

Quarterly Briefing on Dover/Kent County Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) Projects -
Marilyn Smith, Director
Ms. Marilyn Smith, Director of Dover/Kent Metropolitan Planning Organization, reviewed the presentation
of the Dover/Kent MPO quarterly briefing.
Responding to Mr. Anderson, Ms. Smith stated the Dover Air Cargo Freight Study indicated five routes that
could be addressed for freight traffic. The majority of the roads were designed as residential and farm roads,
not to handle heavy freight and freight traffic. Ms. Smith noted that recommendations were made through
the Dover Air Cargo Freight Study to make an easier and safer route for commercial traffic. One
recommendation was for new sections of road to be built to better connect the Garrison Oak Business Park
with Kent Aero Park and Route One. Ms. Smith advised that the recommendations that were made could
be done one at a time or as one large phased project.
Responding to Mr. Taylor, Ms. Smith stated Dover/Kent MPO has not completed any roundabout efficacy
studies since she was hired. She also noted Delaware Department of Transportation would have further
information on roundabout efficacy.
Responding to Mr. Taylor, Ms. Smith explained she is continuing to research a federal grant to determine
eligibility requirements for passenger rail and the federal grant would allow the Dover/Kent MPO to form
a research team to study passenger rails and the viability in the area.
Mr. Neil moved for adjournment of the Safety Advisory and Transportation Committee meeting,
seconded by Mrs. Arndt and unanimously carried.

Report on Payment in Lieu of Taxes (Dave Hugg, City Manager)
Mr. David S. Hugg, III, City Manager, reviewed the background regarding the findings of Payment in Lieu
of Taxes (PILOT).
Mr. Contant suggested the City should pursue Senate Bill 83 and that city officials should seek to work with
state representatives and senators to amend and remove anything but one hundred percent funding for the
tax amount. He noted that the city has issues that need to be addressed and projects to bring to the people
of the City of Dover. Mr. Contant also suggested that city officials should form a collective group of
representatives and senators that represent Dover, Newark, and Georgetown. Mr. Neil agreed with
Mr. Contant and stated the City should move on Senate Bill 83 and move quickly.
Mrs. Arndt asked staff to factor based on the percentage of property rather than varying the percentage based
on population and to further analyze what the numbers are with and without Newark.
Mr. Neil moved to recommend that the City Manager and staff meet with State Representatives and
Senators to move forward with amending Senate Bill 83. The motion was seconded by Mr. Anderson
and unanimously carried.

Information Technology Department
January 2022 Report
Larry Josefowski, Director
Metrics: The four charts this month indicate the number of incidents handled was low, which may be an
indication we are not tracking all incidents due to other work taking precedence. The number of attacks, both
low level and more serious, was more than double our normal figures, probably due to the holidays
approaching, which is a time when organizations are often targeted. The System Security scores are a way to
measure policies that the vendor believes should be implemented in the environment. While a good measure,
most require additional licensing for additional features. All servers are patched monthly, and workstations are
patched weekly; devices may be offline for a variety of reasons and not get a particular patch.
Network Security (External): IT received the draft report on the Critical Resource Review and shared it with key
stakeholders. An out-brief is scheduled for early in December. We also held several meetings on a desktop Cyber
Security Exercise on January 25th.
Network Security (Internal): Multifactor Authentication, where a code is needed to confirm identity, was added
to all our administrative accounts. This was heavily pushed by our cybersecurity insurance, and by implementing
it before the deadline, we were able to keep our insurance at the existing level and keep the costs at the same
level. Not implementing would have drastically decreased the coverage and would have increased it
significantly. We also instituted a block on our Data Loss Protection option in our mail server and had zero
violations for the first time since we started tracking this.
We also met with the state on possible implementation of a tool they have under a grant. While a good tool,
existing systems we have in place duplicate this, and we declined to participate.
Training: User training was completed with a 75% compliance rate.
Hardware Vulnerability: Capital funds were reallocated at the end of the month, allowing us to proceed with
ordering the most significant switches needed. These replacements were postponed over the past several years,
which has resulted in all network equipment being past support and creating a vulnerability and performance
issues. We have also requested ARPA funding to purchase additional hardware, as well. However, supply
shortages may delay implementation for up to 6 months. IT’s future budget requests will attempt to remediate
this over a 5 year period with 50-100K per year, but there is an assumption of risk in this plan by not replacing
the hardware sooner.
Other: The team continues to work on the Tyler/Munis deployment, including learning more about their support
model and how upgrades are being done. IT’s focus during this process is to observe Tyler/Munis perform the
upgrades, as they are contracted to do, but to learn how this is done if needed for future issues.
I also completed a Cybersecurity Leadership Academy course, which was 14 weeks long, which focused on
executive leadership in this area.
IT worked with the Water/Wastewater department to implement an automated process that is available from a
tablet or phone that should eliminate an existing process that requires printing and scanning paper several time
right now and should be implemented by the end of the year.

Sending all staff to Unconscious Bias training – this will provide some enlightenment to staff members on the pitfalls of bias.
We are sending office staff out to meet with field staff to collaborate on current operational and future capital projects to gather
insight from all team members.
Two (2) staff members have joined the Diversity, Equity and Inclusion committee. This will hopefully open up some ideas from
other City team members on what they are trying to accomplish. Attended January meeting and participated with entire
committee.
A Department wide picnic occurred on September 30, 2021. The team was able to come together and talk about the vision of the
Department and where we want to go. An emphasis was provided to the team to provide any and all ideas to grow the
Department.
One on one sessions with all team members and the Director to solicit any ideas and / or improvements for the Department has
been initiated and conversations have been promising.
Pizza parties were provided to staff to help build up morale after a long month of January with six (6) water main leak repairs.

JANUARY 2022
Planning & Inspections Highlights
Some Items to Call to Your Attention
January is one of the key Revenue months for the Department as renewal applications were be-
ing processed for Lodging House Permits, Public Occupancy Permits and the Rental Dwelling
Permits licensing programs. With a deadline of January 31st, a total of 1739 Permits had been
received for these Licenses generating over $246,000 in revenue.
To kick-off the new year, January 2022 saw 146 Permits issued with a commercial construction
value of over $3.5 million bringing the total value of new commercial construction this calendar
year to date to $14.7 million. In comparison, this month last year (January 2021) a total of 98
Permits were issued. Residential Building Permits for new home construction continued to be
strong with January 2022 having ten (10) Permits issued for new dwellings and seven (7) dwell-
ing units achieving Certificates of Occupancy. New non-residential Building Permits for the
month were slower and focused on renovation projects and tenant fit-out projects. A significant
number of Plumbing and Mechanical Permits (52% of the total number of Permits issued) were
issued as active projects progressed.
With the fully staffed Code Enforcement Division, 429 new cases were opened in January with
most related to exterior property maintenance issues, abandoned/unregistered vehicles, and
other Dover Code of Ordinance violations. A total of 907 Code Inspections were undertaken in-
cluding 30 Annual Housing Inspections. There are 41 active Dangerous Building cases open as
the City continues to abate violations at some of these Dangerous Buildings. A total of 150
buildings are registered as Vacant Buildings.
In the month, two Fire Marshals participated in training funded by FEMA on “Incident Response
to Terrorist Bombings.” The other two Fire Marshals will travel in February for the same train-
ing. Several staff of the Code Enforcement Division attended the Webinar “Planning 101: Plan-
ning Your Community’s Future” presented by the University of Delaware’s Institute for Public
Administration.
The Boards and Commissions returned to a Virtual Format due to the COVID-19 Omicron vari-
ant. The Planning Commission met on January 18th and two applications were considered for a
Minor Subdivision Plan for 1601 POW/MIA Parkway and a Child Day Care Center on Walker

Department Operations—Planning Office
The City of Dover Buildings (including City Hall) continued to be open to the public in January with limita-
tions on room occupancies, social distancing, and changes in the mask requirements as part of the City’s
Continuity of Government response to the COVID-19 pandemic and as per the City COVID Policy amend-
ments. Governor Carney issued a State of Emergency on January 3, 2022, later amended, in response to
the Omicron variant. In the month of January, the mask requirement was again required in City Buildings
(effective January 11, 2022). Meetings of the Boards and Commission returned to a Virtual format for
month. Planning Staff continues plan and permit review responsibilities as communicating electronically
and conducting Meetings virtually is now commonplace. Due to realized efficiencies other meetings, train-
ings, and workshops also continue in a Virtual format.
PLANNING OFFICE—Permit Reviews
The Planning Office is part of the review process for certain types of construction activity permits (Building
Permits, Sign Permits, etc.) and Certificate of Occupancy permits in order to confirm compliance with the
Zoning Ordinance provisions. For January 2022, Planning Staff was involved with the review of 49 Building
Permits and 11 Certificates of Occupancy permits that were issued. This is an overall increase in activity for
the month as compared to a January 2021 total of 58 Permits and COs and a January 2020 total of 45 Per-
mits and COs. Staff also reviews new applications for Business Licenses and Rental Dwelling Permits.

COMMUNITY POLICING
This proactive unit takes the lead on community engagement and supporting our community
organizations. They have administrative responsibilities and also support other departmental units,
such as patrol, during times of high work volumes or special operations with enforcement
activities. In addition to those duties, the unit accomplished the following in January:
Continued work with an ongoing issue in Capital Green
Assisted with a civil issue in Brandywine Court Apartments
Addressed complaints of several apartment complexes in reference to homeless individuals
sleeping in halls or stairways.
Supported the high intensity activities related to weeks 1&2 of the Dover Police Academy.
Continued work with an ongoing issue at 457 E. Water Street.
Special Focus on a recurring problem along Silver Lake Boulevard.
Facility Dog “Roy” was the feature of an event at The Little School of Dover.
Multiple foot patrols in the Downtown area.
Addressed a neighbor dispute situation on Westview Terrace.
Supported the scene of a barricaded subject.
Supported Code Enforcement with an ongoing issue.
Facility Dog “Roy” visited the library for outreach activities.

Transported a homeless individual for services provided by Code Purple.
Received a “Community Partner Award” from Habitat for Humanity.
Members of the CPU attend numerous meetings with community associations and organizations
as a part of our ongoing liaison relationships.
CHIEF’S ADVISORY COMMITTEE
The Police Chief’s Advisory Committee (PCAC) is comprised of nine (9) diverse stakeholders
living/working in the City of Dover. It meets regularly to provide input/feedback to the Chief on
the various operations of the agency. January activity is as follows:
At our regular meeting on the 20th, we welcomed a new member to the committee. He is Jason
Smith, a student enrolled at Delaware State University. We received a report from the Youth Sub-
Committee at Dover High School. In short, it identified a gap in understanding regarding the role
of School Resource Officers. Students recommended that the topic be reviewed from time to time
at assemblies. Questions about their work uniforms were also answered.
The main topic of the meeting was our “Co-responder” program under development with Dover
Behavioral Health. Police and DBH supervisors were present to hear any suggestions offered by
the Advisory Committee while the operational model for the Clinical Partners was being crafted.
Special guests in attendance to enhance the discussion on this mental health and substance abuse

program included State Senate Pro-Tempore David Sokola, Lt. Gov. Bethany Hall-Long and
members of the Lt. Governor’s staff with expertise in the topic. Dover PD Lt. Jordan Miller led
off with an overview of the initiative and discussion followed. It was emphasized that program
boundaries be established to avoid duplication; we should clearly define program goals; we should
maximize community collaboration potential; and we should provide resources to the patient’s
support system whenever possible. The topic will be revisited at the February meeting.
PROGRAMS AND INITIATIVES
The GVI program continues to make progress. The final “Problem Analysis” report was
delivered as expected in January. There was a full day “onboarding” session that
assembled the entire Dover GVI Team and operations will begin shortly. Timelines are
still being met on this project.
The 3rd Session of the Dover Municipal Police Academy began on January 9, 2022. Of the
original six (6) Dover recruits that began on Day 1, five (5) are still actively training among
a total of 18 candidates.
The 2022 hiring cycle began in January as several vacancies are anticipated in the coming
months. We are advertising with the assistance of a marketing firm and added emphasis
has been placed on “in-person” recruiting activities. In anticipation of subsequent hiring
cycles, we applied for and received a grant award through our normal application cycle
that will provide funds for a professional recruiting video series. Filming will occur during
the spring and summer and will focus on a final product that will attract talented and diverse
candidates for employment.
The professional substance abuse and mental health clinicians were updated in the
Advisory Committee section. In addition to that information, the positions have been
advertised and interviews are expected in February. Timelines are still being met on this
project. We should be operational in the Spring.

activities in the City of Dover.
