BUDGET DRIVERS AND CHALLENGES
Below are major budget drivers and challenges that were part of the development of this Draft Budget
for Fiscal Year 2023. All were factors in developing the final budget.
Inflation – Running at close to 9% over the last year alone. Year over year increases are their highest since
1982 which is affecting the cost of supplies, construction and services.
Fuel Costs – Regular gasoline is up by $1.42 per gallon over the last year (+63%) and diesel fuel is up by
$3.47 per gallon over the last year (+274%).
Lead Times and Supply Chain Issues – Included are increased uncertainty about costs, increased
maintenance and equipment shortages delaying projects.
Personnel Costs – Union contracts include fixed contract increases, along with built-in step increases,
which require additional funding and limit options. Pension and other benefit cost increases are also
included.
Unfunded State Mandates – The $15 minimum wage requirement, expanded Family Leave provisions,
legislation requiring EV charging ordinances and others pending General Assembly considerations add
obligations.
Competition for Employees – A tight employee market resulting in competition for public and private
workers which is driving up salaries, hiring bonuses, benefits, etc. is strongly impacting recruitment and
retention.
Energy – Rapidly escalating wholesale energy costs driven by record breaking natural gas prices (up by
$3.35 per thousand cubic feet over the past six months (+82.7%)) are requiring rate surcharges, PCA
adjustments and reduction of fund transfers. Purchase power costs are projected to increase from
$50.1M in FY22 to $91.5M in FY23.
Deferred Maintenance – Building and equipment repairs, and maintenance cannot be postponed
indefinitely.
Obsolescence – Older technologies are increasingly not supported by vendors. There is no dedicated fund
for ongoing upgrades and replacements.
Deferred Replacements – Equipment and vehicles require additional maintenance, are less efficient and
lose value as they age. Replacements are increasingly difficult to obtain as manufacturers limit inventories.
Demand Growth – The city continues to grow in area, population, customers, streets, utilities, etc.
Forecasts show Dover reaching over 40,000 people in the next couple of years. These added demands on
resources cannot be ignored.
Policies relating to revenue reserves, bond coverage, debt limits, etc. limit budget flexibility. Equity and
efficiency must drive decisions relating to services and programs, staffing and departmental needs and
the continued provision of quality services to our residents and customers.

BUDGET PROCESS
The budget process is conducted to comply with all charter mandates.
The City Charter mandates the following:
On or before the second Monday of May each year, the City Manager shall prepare and submit to the Council a
budget presenting a financial plan for conducting the affairs of the City for the ensuing fiscal year. The total of
proposed expenditures shall not exceed the total of anticipated income.
The budget shall include the following information:
● A detailed statement showing the expenses of conducting each department and office of the City for the
current year and last preceding fiscal year
● A detailed estimate of the expenses of conducting each department and office of the City for the ensuing
fiscal year with reasons for the increases and decreases recommended
● The value of supplies and materials on hand
● The amount of the debt of the City with a schedule of maturities of bond issues
● A statement showing the amount required for interest on the City debt and for paying off any bonds
maturing during the year and the amount required for the sinking fund
● An itemized statement of all anticipated income of the City with a comparative statement of the amounts
received by the City from each of the same or similar sources for the last preceding and current fiscal
years
● An estimate of the amount of money to be received from taxes
● Other information as the City Manager may think desirable or as may be required by the Council
The Council shall, on or before the second Monday in July in each year, adopt a budget for the succeeding fiscal
year. The Council shall, as far as possible, adhere to the budget so adopted in the making of appropriations.
The preparation of the budget begins with the establishment of goals and parameters through the City Manager's
office. In November, the City Manager’s Office distributes comprehensive budget instructions to department heads.
The City of Dover's method of budgeting has evolved from concepts of many budgeting methods. A line item form of
budget is used to account for expenses and revenues. In recent years, the City has incorporated concepts of
programmatic budgeting which focuses on programs performed. Programs are examined periodically for their
relevance and effectiveness, a concept which comes from zero-based budgeting philosophy.
In March of 2022, budget line items for both the current budget and proposed budget were reviewed with department
heads to determine if service levels were to be maintained, improved, or reduced. New projects for the Capital
Investment Plan were reviewed at this time as well. Revenues were projected as accurately as possible, in order to
set priorities for proposed expenditures.
The Council will review the proposed budget in early June. June 13, 2022 has been set for the Electric Fund
Budg et Public Hearing. Public comments on the entire FY22 City Budget were also sought on this date. The budget
is made available on the City of Dover website at https://www.cityofdover.com/public-documents.
According to the ordinance, the proposed budget must go through two readings. After the budget’s adoption,
monthly financial reports are issued to monitor and control the budget during the fiscal year.

Budget Summary City of Dover
AMENDING THE BUDGET
There are two ways of amending any individual budget. Although the budget is presented as a line item budget,
department heads are permitted to change the breakdown within the materials and supplies and administrative
groups of accounts (52000, 53000) if the total budgeted for that department is not exceeded. Department heads are
not authorized to re-appropriate salary (51000) or capital items (54000).
Through budget ordinance, the City Manager has the authority to make interdepartmental transfers of up to five
percent if financial policies are adhered.
Any re-budgeting of available fund balances must have the approval of the City Council.
BUDGET PROCEDURES
Budgets are prepared for the General Fund, Governmental Capital Projects Fund, Water Fund, Wastewater Fund,
Water Capital Projects Fund, Wastewater Capital Projects Fund, Electric Revenue Fund, Electric Capital Projects
Fund, Municipal Street Aid Fund, Housing Grant Funds, Workers Compensation Fund, Community Transportation
Improvement, Delaware Prevention Network (DPN) Grant, and Lodging Tax Fund.
The Governmental Capital Projects Fund is a section of the General Fund. This section is required by our financial
policy. The separate budget for this fund covers the planning and control of only capital items for the General
Fund. The Water Capital Projects Fund, Wastewater Capital Projects Fund, and Electric C apital Projects
Fund are sections of each utility enterprise. These sections are required by bond resolutions. Separate budgets
for these funds cover the planning and control of only capital items of the utilities.
Estimated ending budgetary balances provide the balancing amount for each budget. Acceptable budgetary balance
guidelines were established by Council. The General Fund should maintain a minimum reserve in the budget
balance of at least eight percent and no greater than twelve percent of the current year operating revenues for
the General Fund, excluding the carry forward balance. Water and Wastewater Funds should maintain a minimum
reserve in the budget balance of at least eight percent and no greater than 17 percent of the current year operating
revenues for each of the Water and Wastewater Funds, excluding the carry forward balance. Electric Revenue
Fund should maintain a minimum budget balance of at least twelve percent of the current year operating revenues
for the Electric Revenue Fund, excluding the carry forward balance.
The City follows the practice of encumbrance accounting for the Governmental Fund types. Encumbrances represent
commitments related to unperformed contracts for goods or services. The encumbrances outstanding at year ends
are reported as reservations of fund balances and do not constitute expenditures or liabilities. The commitments
will be honored during the subsequent year.
The City Council adopts the budget. The City Council also adopts revisions for major items throughout the year.
The City Charter requires the City to adhere to the budget appropriations as adopted by City Council. Department
managers may not amend the total department budget amounts. Budget ordinances give the City Council the
authority to revise budget appropriations. Budget ordinances give the City Manager the authority to transfer
amounts not exceeding five percent of the total departmental budget within departments and between departments
within funds. This is the legal level of budgetary control. If expenditures exceed appropriations by less than five
percent of the total department budget, no formal Council approval procedure is required by the City budget
ordinance. However, the City Council reviews all departmental budget activity on a regular basis and must approve
all over expenditures of appropriations or transfer of appropriated amounts. All unencumbered appropriations
lapse at the end of the fiscal year.

CAPITAL INVESTMENTS PLAN AND BUDGET
The Capital Investments Plan is a five-year plan for the purchase of property, equipment, and public improvements
that are of a permanent nature. The City proposes a five-year Capital Investments Plan annually. The capital
investments budget is a one-year appropriation of expenditures from the Capital Investments Plan and is normally
funded from bond proceeds, grants, and operating funds. Capital expenditures are those which are not a current
expense and have a period of usefulness of at least five years. Such items include projects requiring debt
obligation, acquisitions or lease of land, purchase of major equipment or vehicles, construction of buildings or
facilities, and major improvements.
CRITERIA
Capital outlays are major projects undertaken by the City that generally fit within one or more of the following
categories:
All projects requiring debt obligation or borrowing
Any acquisition or lease of land
Purchase of major equipment and vehicles ordered in excess of $25,000 with a life expectancy of five years or more
Construction of new buildings or facilities including engineering, design, and other pre-construction costs with an
estimated cost, in excess, of $25,000
Major building improvements that are not routine expenses and that substantially enhance the value of a structure
Major equipment or furnishings required to furnish new buildings or other projects
Major projects that are generally not recurring on a "year in, year out" basis
Projects costing more than $1,000 but less than $25,000 are included with the operating budget (minor capital).
All vehicles requested for replacement were inspected by Fleet Maintenance staff. Each vehicle’s brake system,
fuel system, suspension, steering mechanism, coupling devices, and operating systems were checked for condition
and rated good, fair, or poor. Repair estimates were also included if any of the vehicle systems required maintenance.
Any vehicles with a rating of good or fair were not replaced.

BUDGET POLICY GUIDELINES
The City of Dover follows numerous policy guidelines when preparing the budget. The most significant guidelines
follow:
The budget should be balanced with current revenues being equal to or greater than current
expenditures/expenses. The following approaches are employed to balance the budget in order of priority: improve
productivity, create new service fees, raise existing service fees based on the cost of services, eliminate programs,
increase property taxes, and lastly, reduce or eliminate services.
The tax rate should be competitive with nearby cities and cities of comparable size. The rate should produce
revenue adequate to pay for approved City services. Qualified senior citizens receive a $50,000 exemption from
assessed value.
The General Fund shall realize returns from the Enterprise Funds. The returns should not sacrifice improvements to
the utilities. The budget includes transfers of $10,000,000 from the Electric Fund and $500,000 each from the
Wastewater and Water Funds for a total transfer from the Utility Funds to the General Fund of $11,000,000. This
makes up a combined 23.5% of the General Fund revenues.
Contingency Funds shall be maintained in the General, Wastewater, Water, and Electric Funds. These
contingencies should be adequate to handle unexpected expenditures/expenses. The General, Wastewater,
and Water Funds should maintain an amount equal to at least two percent of the current year operating revenues.
The Electric Revenue Fund should maintain an amount equal to at least one percent of the current year operating
revenues. The City may only use monies in the contingency funds in times of unforeseen emergency expenditures.
Investments made by the City will address safety, liquidity, and yield. Interest earned from investment of available
funds will be distributed to funds according to ownership of the invested funds. The City’s investment policy
authorizes investment of City funds in U.S. Government Securities, fully insured or fully collateralized Certificates of
Deposit with federally insured institutions, the State investment pool, and Repurchase Agreements.
Utility rates are reviewed annually to ensure that they will generate revenues adequate to cover operating expenses,
meet the legal requirements of bond covenants, and allow adequate capital replacement.
EXPLANATION OF FUNDS
The accounting policies of the City conform to generally accepted accounting principles as applicable to
governments. The following is a summary of the more significant policies:
● Basis of Presentation - Fund Accounting
The accounts of the City are organized based on funds and account groups, each of which is considered a separate
accounting entity. The operations of each fund are accounted for with a separate set of self- balancing accounts
that comprise its assets, liabilities, fund equity, revenues, and expenditures or expenses, as appropriate. Government
resources are allocated to and accounted for in individual funds based upon the purposes for which they are to be
spent and the means by which spending activities are controlled. The various funds are grouped into eight generic
fund types and four broad fund categories as follows:
The City reports the following major governmental fund:
General Fund: The General Fund is the general operating fund of the City. It is used to account for all financial
resources except those required to be accounted for in another fund.
The City reports the following major proprietary funds:
Electric Revenue Fund: This fund incorporates all transactions related to the generation transmission and distribution
of electricity. The Energy Authority (TEA) is contracted to manage the City’s power procurement, and North
American Energy Services (NAES) is contracted to operate and maintain Dover’s electric generators at the McKee
power plant and the Van Sant unit.
19

Budget Summary City of Dover
Wastewater Fund: This fund accounts for transactions related to wastewater services, including the payment of fees
to Kent County for the treatment of sewage.
Water Fund: This fund accounts for transactions related to water services. The City also holds lease agreements with
cell phone companies for equipment placed on City water towers.
The City reports the following non-major funds:
Internal Service Fund: The City has created one internal service fund to account for the activities related to self-
insured Workers Compensation. Receipts are providing from contributions by the City’s three major funds. Expenses
are related to payment of claims, premiums, and administration costs. Actuarial analyses are completed triennially to
insure enough reserves for claims for the Workers Compensation Fund.
Special Revenue Funds: These funds account for the proceeds of specific revenue sources that are legally
restricted to expenditure for specified purposes.
Fiduciary Funds: Fiduciary funds consist of trust and agency funds and are used to report assets held by the City in
a trustee or agency capacity for others. These funds are, therefore, not available to support City programs.
The City is the trustee for the City’s two pension plans, the Police Pension Fund and the Employee Pension Fund.
Agency funds are used to account for assets held by the City as an agent for individuals, private organizations, or
other governments. The City has six agency funds: Dover Parking Authority, Library Consortium, Dover Arts
Council, Downtown Dover Development Corporation, Main Street Dover, Inc., Dover Days, and Fourth of July
Celebration Committee.
The City allocates the costs of certain governmental services to the costs of business-type activities (indirect
expense allocation). These costs include allocated amounts of City management, centralized budgetary formulation
and oversight, accounting financial reporting, information technology, payroll, procurement, contracting and oversight,
investing and cash management, personnel services, etc. The allocations are charged to the business-type activities
based on the use of these services. As a matter of policy, the costs of certain governmental functions are not allocated
to the business-type activities such as public safety, library, recreation, permitting, inspections, streets, sanitation,
community, and economic development.
Basis of Accounting
Basis of accounting refers to when revenues and expenditures or expenses are recognized in the accounts and
reported in the financial statements. Basis of accounting relates to the timing of the measurements made regardless
of the measurement focus applied.
All Governmental Funds, Expendable Trusts, and Agency Funds are accounted for using the modified accrual basis
of accounting. Their revenues are recognized when they become measurable and available as net current assets.
Revenues that are susceptible to accrual include property taxes and billable service charges. All other revenues
are accounted for when they are received.
Property taxes are recognized in the fiscal period for which they are levied provided they are “available’ – i.e., they
are collected in the current period or are expected to be collected soon enough thereafter to be used to pay
liabilities of the current period. The City considers all revenues reported in the government funds to be available if the
revenues are collected with 60 days after year-end, except for trash collection, which has a 30-day collection period.
Expenditures are generally recognized under the modified accrual basis of accounting when the related fund
liability is incurred. The exception to this general rule is principal and interest on general long-term debt which is
recognized when due. Also, claims and judgments and compensated absences are recognized as expenditures to
the extent they have matured. General capital asset acquisitions are reported as expenditures in governmental
funds. Proceeds of general long-term debt and acquisitions under capital leases are reported as other financing
sources.
20
Page 32
Budget Summary City of Dover
The government-wide financial statements as well as all proprietary and fiduciary trust funds are accounted for
using the accrual basis of accounting and the economic resources measurement focus. Their revenues are
recognized when they are earned, and their expenses are recognized when they are incurred.
BUDGETARY BASIS OF ACCOUNTING
The City prepares the budget for Governmental Fund types in which the expenditures are estimated based on
liabilities for goods and services to be incurred during the fiscal year. Revenues for the General Fund are budgeted
on a cash basis except for property taxes and billable services, which are on a modified accrual basis. Under the
cash basis of budgeting transactions are recognized only when cash is received. Under modified accrual basis
revenues are recorded when they are earned (whether cash is received at the time). The expenditures are accounted
for when the purchase orders are issued. Encumbrances are established when purchase orders are issued and
accounted for as a designation of fund balance at year-end. The budget is amended in the subsequent year for
the outstanding encumbrances of the prior year.
Budgets for the Electric Revenue Fund, Water/Wastewater Fund, and Internal Service Fund are prepared on an
accrual basis. Revenues are recorded when they are earned, and expenditures are recorded when goods and
services are received whether cash disbursements are made at the time or not. Budgets are prepared under the
assumption that the principal redemption of long-term debt must be assumed by Enterprise Fund activity in conformity
with the bond ordinance.
The budget is presented in this document in the legal budget format (non-GAAP) adopted by the City. Under this
method: Capital outlays are considered expenditures; grants are considered as revenues and not contributions to
capital; depreciation is not budgeted; debt service proceeds are considered to be revenues, not an increase in
liabilities; debt payments are shown as expenditures rather than reductions of liabilities; proceeds from the sale of
assets are considered revenue, however, the gain or loss is not.

Project Name Police Officer Body Worn Cameras & Tasers Category Equipment
Status Active
Total Project Cost: $876,400
Description
This project outlines the purchase for 100 body worn cameras and 100 Taser device upgrades.
The implementation of a body worn camera (BWC) program has been on the Police Department CIP Project list since 2017 when the department
previewed systems available by several manufacturers. The department tested and evaluated BWCs from Axon and Coban and incorporated the
framework of a policy for their use into its written directives system. Funding for the program has been the primary hurdle for the project to
succeed, but the integration of the program into the department’s operations is the other factor. The overall system increases the workload
associated with the management of the data beyond reasonable levels that could be handled by existing department personnel. There are two
options for implementing the data management for the BWC program: use of a secure cloud based system, where the data is stored to secured
cloud storage (Axon) or use of department servers for the storage of the data (Coban). The department migrated to Coban systems and maintains
all its in-car camera and interview room systems data on department servers and was initially hoping this system could be expanded to include
BWCs and create savings by storing the data in-house versus paying additional costs for cloud storage. However, the BWC equipment and
associated software package offered by Coban lacks the necessary functions to manage the video files effectively.
As a result, the department requests that funds be authorized for purchase of the BWC solution offered by AXON/TASER. The perceived cost
savings offered by Coban quickly disappeared after mapping out the workflow through all of our mandated processes. For the foreseeable future, it
is assessed that the Coban dash cams and interview room devices will serve their intended purpose. At some point, when practical and economical,
there is a likelihood that the Axon version of dash and room cameras will be obtained to achieve maximum efficiency in the zone of video
evidence. During the most recent period of BWC research, facts came to light regarding our existing Taser devices which are part of the Axon
product line.
While negotiating for the best possible pricing and payment terms, we became aware of updated Taser devices, improved inter-operability of Axon
products, improved accountability controls and the introduction of a virtual reality training option for when the Taser is being considered in
situations involving “at-risk” individuals. While there has been no official announcement made, Axon is on track to eliminate the option of buying
their Taser products in individual units. A chronic problem of gaps in device maintenance that have impacted risk management concerns have been
found with the current Taser model in use in the department. Axon is introducing, and will eventually migrate to, a “Certification” program. This
program will basically pull all of the separately priced components of the Taser system into a bundled subscription system.
The costs outlined below include the hardware (cameras, docks and mounts) needed for each officer to wear them on their uniforms, licenses for
the officers use of the cameras as well as licenses needed to access the Evidence.com cloud storage, an extended warranty for all the docks and
integration fees to our CAD/RMS systems. Finally a one-time setup-up and training fee is included for a 4-day session at the start of the program
for all users involved. In addition the expenditures below also include the cost of an additional civilian position with a background in law
enforcement to manage the increase in digital evidence resulting from the BWC program.
In addition, if purchased on the proposed schedule, as a five year package, all Dover PD field personnel would immediately receive the newest
version of the Taser device and Body Worn Cameras. Included in the price per device bundle would be all scheduled camera upgrades as well as
associated equipment including mounts, holsters, duty cartridges, training cartridges, replacement cartridges following use, batteries, vouchers for
all required instructor training, a live-action training suit for the agency, warranty coverage, and all of the new virtual-reality training available
during the package timeline.
Council approval for this project is currently being pursued as a result of the national spotlight on increasing transparency and accountability in
police operations. Approval of the BWC program is highly anticipated, however, the funding for it is still challenging. As a result, grant funding
is also being pursued to help off-set the costs to the city for implementing these transformational programs.
Justification
1.This project will enhance police investigations and ensure transparency with police /civilian contacts, provide clarity for complaints made against
police officers and reduce the amount of civil liability.
2.Accountability will be upgraded with the automatic activation of the BWC through installed technology and when the new version of Taser or the
duty firearm is removed from its holster.
3.Improved access to data will result with the automatic upload of Taser discharge data directly from the smart battery to the Office of Professional
Standards and other reporting systems.
4.Additional background information concerning both programs and the associated costs is attached to this project form.

Useful Life 20-25 years
Project Name Wellhead Redevelopment Program Category Water/Wastewater
Status Active
Total Project Cost: $488,000
Description
This project will provide for rehabilitation and repair of each deep wellhead in an effort to maintain operations and/or increase/maintain the yield of
each well as it relates to the permitted allocation. FY 2008; total well inspection and testing performed. FY 2009: Motors at Wells #6A and #9
were rebuilt, and wells #13R and #15 were redeveloped. FY 2010: Well #10. FY 2011: Well #4 redevelopment and well piping improvements at
various well locations, as well as continued well testing. FY 2012: Well #1 redevelopment. FY2013: complete repair of Well #10. FY2014:
complete repair of well #14. FY2015 inspected: 2, 3, 11, 13R, 15, PW2. FY 2016 inspected: 4, 6, 8R, 9 & PW8A. FY 2017 inspected: 1, 10, 4,
PW6A & 4B. FY 2018 inspected: 3. FY 2019 inspected: 12R, PW1A, 2, 11, 13R, 15. FY 2020: 2, 5 & 6. FY 2021: Well 8R, Well 9, Well 10
and PW6A. FY 2022 5A & 12R. FY2023 tentatively scheduled: 1A, 6, 4B 1, inspections include 6, 8R, 11, 15 and 4B.
Justification
The well screening and gravel pack requires cleaning over time due to a buildup of mineral deposits and foreign materials such as clay and silt.
This maintenance effort is critical to ensure that production can continue to meet demand. It is also necessary to maintain the operational aspects of
each well and provide repairs as needed to minimize downtime to maintain system capacity. Delaying or eliminating this project would result in
the continued deterioration of the well screen, gravel pack, and well yield over time. It would also result in increased well downtime, emergency
repairs, and decreased capacity. These issues can lead to increased flow pattern changes and water quality concerns.

Project # WQ2303
Useful Life 90+ years
Project Name Water Quality Improvements - North Street Category Water/Wastewater
Status Active
Total Project Cost: $370,000
Description
This project was first identified by staff and the 2006 Water Master Plan Update, and has since become further refined with the FY 2006 Water
Quality Evaluation. Projects to be included under this category primarily consist of replacement or relining of old unlined cast iron water main
within the City’s water distribution system; system upgrades to improve system control; and utilization of a consultant to provide additional design
and evaluation services, as needed. Recent research and data collection has produced a Water Main Rehabilitation Priority List, based on several
criteria to identify water mains that are in need of replacement or relining. Pipes will be upgraded according to the severity of the pipe condition,
as well as coordination with the City of Dover’s Public Services Street Rehabilitation Program. Between FY 2008 and FY 2010, the deep well
contact chambers were designed and installed. Between FY 2008 and FY 2011 the water mains that were replaced include, Washington Street,
Pennsylvania Avenue, South Street, Pear Street, West Street, Hazel Road, Maryland Avenue, American Avenue, Bayard Avenue, Greenhill
Avenue, Bayard Avenue Alley and Loockerman Street. Operational efforts, such as flushing, will continue to occur on a routine basis. FY 2012
improvements include, N. Pennsylvania Ave., American Ave. Ext., Madison St., Rodney Rd., New Street, Ross Street and Bradford Street (near
Wesley College). FY 2013 improvements included North Street. As part of the Water Main Rehabilitation Priority List, water lines were
identified throughout the City that requires replacement/relining. FY 2017 improvement include: New Street (Water St. to Loockerman). FY
2018 improvements included: Bradford Street (Loockerman St. to Division St.) and William Street (Pear St. to State St.). FY 2019 improvements
included: Lakewood Place. FY 2020 improvements included: Columbia Avenue. FY 2021 improvements included: N. West St. West Alley and
Ross Street. FY 2022 improvements included the partial funding of N. State Street. FY23 are as follows:
•N. State Street (Division Street to Columbia Street) - $905,000
•West Street East Alley (Walker Road to William Street ) - $382,500
Justification
Water quality complaints have eroded consumer confidence in the City’s water supply as the water is perceived to be aesthetically unpleasant. In
order to reduce complaints and potentially alleviate this problem, it is necessary to implement the improvements identified by staff, the 2006 Water
Master Plan Update, and the FY 2006 Water Quality Evaluation. Delaying or eliminating this project will prolong customer dissatisfaction and
further erode confidence in the City’s water supply. In addition, main rehabilitation and replacement, ensuring pipes do not significantly exceed
the expected life cycle, is critical to provide a reliable supply of water for our customers and for fire suppression. Water leaks and breaks on older
lines can have a significant impact on our ability to serve over time. Addressing the brown water and associated water quality concerns of the
City’s water system will not only require capital improvements to the system but also operational changes. Some operation changes will result in
no net effect on the operating budget, while others will need to be addressed in the development of future operating budgets. Such items include
tools and supplies necessary to improve system sampling and monitoring as well as tools and supplies necessary to improve system-wide flushing
operations.

Project # WW2304
Useful Life 20-25 years
Project Name College Road Pump Station Replacement Category Water/Wastewater
Status Active
Total Project Cost: $580,000
Description
This project calls for replacement of the Smith & Loveless package pumping station, installed in 1987, in order to handle development in the area,
as well as completely rehabilitate the wet well side of the pump station using a poly-triplex system liner. The station has exceeded its life
expectancy of 20-25 years and is in need of a capacity upgrade to handle anticipated growth in the basin.
Justification
Replace the aged station with a completely new station to prevent the need for costly unbudgeted repairs to maintain operation, thus reducing pump
failure resulting in a sewage spill into waterway or backup in a residence. Due to the age of the station, certain parts are no longer obtainable, and
replacement of equipment is costly. Design occurred in FY 2021; construction in FY 2023.

Project # WW2308
Useful Life 20-25 years
Project Name Heatherfield Pump Station Replacement Category Water/Wastewater
Status Active
Total Project Cost: $663,000
Description
This project calls for replacement of the Smith & Loveless package pumping station, installed in 1985, in order to handle development in the area,
as well as completely rehabilitate the wet well side of the pump station using a poly-triplex system liner. The station has exceeded its life
expectancy of 20-25 years and is in need of a capacity upgrade to handle anticipated growth in the basin.
Justification
Replace the aged station with a completely new station to prevent the need for costly unbudgeted repairs to maintain operation, thus reducing pump
failure resulting in a sewage spill into waterway or backup in a residence. Due to the age of the station, certain parts are no longer obtainable and
replacement of equipment is costly. Feasibility study in FY 2022, design in FY 2023, construction in FY 2025.

Project Name Town Point Conversion Category Electric
Status Active
Total Project Cost: $360,000
Description
This project will complete the overhead to underground conversion in Towne Point/White Oak developments. This relocates the electric feed to
the homes from the backyard to the front yards and places the infrastructure underground. Nimitz, Bacon and Buckson are the last remaining roads
to be done and the backyard construction will be cut down and poles surrendered to the Verizon.
Justification
The current infrastructure was installed in the late 1960s and 1970s and there are numerous areas of pole lines being inaccessible to our bucket
trucks due to the private fencing installed. The estimated prices are for boring work being performed by outside contractor but most of the boring
could be replaced with trenching which would minimize the possibility of striking non locatable infrastructure.

Project Name Substation Component Replacement Category Electric
Status Active
Total Project Cost: $150,000
Description
This project is part of a wider ranging Substation Assessment Program. The goal of the Substation Assessment Program is to identify discrepancies
in the substations and proactively manage aging component replacements. This is done by performing monthly inspections and operational checks
of the switches, relays, transformers and wiring of each substation in the City of Dover system. This will include replacing the aged mechanical
relays with modern electronic relays and equipment and have identical equipment in each substation. This also will encompass replacing outdated
communication equipment and installing Real Time Automation Controllers (RTACs) that will allow faster reporting of faults in the system.
Justification
These funds will be used to make upgrades to the communications components used in the substations. It will also allow the replacement of
components that unexpectedly failed without depleting the O&M budgets. As an example, one SEL relay can cost between $3,000-$6,000 per unit.

Project Name Tansmission Line Maintenance Program Category Electric
Status Active
Total Project Cost: $50,000
Description
This project will be utilized to perform preventative maintenance on the 69 kV lines that provide voltage to the distribution substations across the
city. In the past this money has been spent on replacement of the porcelain insulators to install safer polymer insulators. This could also be used to
replace stand offs, poles, switches and other equipment related to the transmission system.
Justification
Insulators have a defined equipment life due to sun and weather conditions breaking down the porcelain and base bonding cement. Insulators
installed in 1960's and 1970's are due for replacement because of this deterioration. We have experienced several transmission outages due to
insulator failure. Replacing the insulators should extend the life an additional 30 years.

Project Name SCADA Upgrade Category Electric
Status Active
Total Project Cost: $100,000
Description
This project will replace the Master Station hardware and software. The Master Station receives all the analog data, door alarms, and control for all
electrical substations and wastewater lift stations. The Master Station is comprised of dual host servers, dual operator consoles, paging systems,
web server, two firewalls for DMZ and one remote access/support firewall. The Master Station also allows the operators to modify and control the
city’s electrical grid remotely reducing the amount of time outages affect the residents and reduce harm to the city’s populace. It was discovered
that the current software we utilize will not be fully supported by the manufacturer due to the age of the software package. This requires the
department to examine other options from different manufacturers and is the reason for the increase in price from previous budget years.
Justification
The equipment will reach the end of its life expectancy in 2022. It should be noted that the systems run continuously 24 hours a day seven days a
week to monitor and track anomalies in the electrical and wastewater systems. It is also utilized by the Electric Department to open and close
circuit breakers and perform switching schedules. Estimate of $550,000 is based on a budgetary quote from our current SCADA provider. Once an
RFP is released and evaluated the total price may decrease.

Project Name Emergency Component Replacement (T&D) Category Electric
Status Active
Total Project Cost: $325,000
Description
This project will be utilized solely to provide funding for the replacement of electric equipment that is damaged in accidents or fails unexpectedly.
If over the course of the year there are no failures, the funds will not be utilized.
Justification
Currently, when a component is replaced, the funding comes from the O & M budget of T & D. Once the work is performed coordination with
Finance occurs to move funds in Munis from the O & M side to the Capital side to capitalize the equipment. This project will eliminate that and
allow the capitalization of the equipment directly from this account.

Project Name New Developments Category Electric
Status Active
Total Project Cost: $7,000,000
Description
This project purchases material and equipment that are used to provide electric service to new housing developments, businesses and industrial
developments across the service area. Additionally, a portion of this expense is offset by extension fees whereby developers pay a $1,875 per
residential lot connection fee inside City limits and a $1,500 per lot outside City limits but in the service area. For business and industrial
developers, a fee is charged based on total material expense for the extension.
This is an ongoing project and affects three separate accounts:
411-42-82-99-000-56031
411-42-82-99-000-56034
411-42-82-99-000-56046
Not all new developments projects supported by this fund are know during budget preparation and will arise during the year.
Justification
During each budget year, new developers request line extensions for new electric projects. Some are new projects while others may have received
plan approval previously but were not completed for any number of reasons. Due to a rise in projects crossing multiple years, material delivery
delays and cost increases the amount of this account has been increased to $1.4M.

Project Name Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) Solution Category Electric
Status Active
Total Project Cost: $4,136,000
Description
This project involves consulting services and purchase of Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) Solution to support the business processes of the
City of Dover.
Justification
The City's current ERP software is Sungard Public Sector's Select/Naviline version 8.0.2.0. It is an IBM System powered environment (iSeries).
This system is a legacy system that came out of the Y2K era, when previous systems were not programmed for the year 2000. The Sungard Public
Sector system was purchased in April 1997.
The technology for ERP systems have evolved from mainframe based systems (AS400) to Personal Computer (PC) based systems either hosted by
the software provider through the internet or hosted by the customer on file servers. The industry trend is to drive access to customers with web
and app based delivery models.
Project Strategy & Objectives:
- The City requires an integrated environment where any user can access the data they need.
- The City will emphasize a self-service environment with technology enabling and not hindering the users to easily access data with the proper
controls at the point of data entry.
- The City desires to utilize rational data base technology plus easy report and query writing tools to accomplish this.
- The City realizes that this goal will not be accomplished through new technology alone but also requires extensive process changes and
organizational support.
- Management requires better access to data, information and reporting that is currently unavailable or significantly restricted.
- As a result of current limitations to functionallity and access to data, City personnel have developed work-around processes that are impacting
City business.
- Third-party software integrations with the current system are extremely difficult, limited or unvailable.

Project Name Plant Decommissioning Category Electric
Status Active
Total Project Cost: $14,000,000
Description
The City will decommision and dismantle the McKee Run Power Plant. The plant will be taken out of the PJM system on May 31, 2021 and the
decommissioning will begin shortly after.
FY2020-21 Using the playbook devloped by NAES, the City will issue an RFP, chose a firm, and develop engineering and demolition plans. Early
phases of the demo work might begin in June of 2021.
FY2021-22 The majority of the demolition will take place this year.
FY2022-23 Demolition will be completed and some site remediation will be done.
Justification
The age, condition and level of efficeincy of the McKee Power Plant make it no longer competetive in the PJM market. With new PJM rules, the
rare, but possible intersection of a call to generate for the PJM market and a failure to perform could lead to a penaly being assessed to the City in
the millions of dollars, and the lack of consistent use makes the plant no longer viable. The City's Integratated Resource Plan calls for a shift to
other resources.

Project Name Street, Concrete, and Alley Program Category ARPA Fund
Status Active
Total Project Cost: $1,200,000
Description
This project will rehabilitate approximately one to three percent (1-3%) of the street and alley network each year. The estimated capital mantenance
cost are $51 million over a 20 year planning horizon in FY17 dollars. The estimate is based on the needs survey conducted by Public Works in
FY17. Continuous maintenance on these assests will prevent costlier reconstruction in the future. This project combines the former Street
Resurfacing Program, the Alley Program and the Barrier Free Access Ramp Program. FY23 anticipated projects are as follows:
Townsend Blvd (N. Dupont Hwy to End)
Buckson Drive (Jefferic Blvd to Carvel Dr)
Carvel Drive (Buckson Dr to Nimitz Rd)
S. Independence Blvd (Forrest Ave to S. Farmview Ave)
N. West St West Alley (William St to Walker Rd)
Ross St (Pear St to Fairview Ave)
Justification
Replacement of deteriorated curbs, gutters, and sidewalks provides improved use, drainage, and appearance of the pavement section. The Street,
Concrete, and Alley Program schedule is driven by funding and road ratings. Total street milage is growing as more roads and alleys are dedicated
for public maintenance due to growth. Additionally, this program promotes the interconnection of the sidewalk network to conform to ISTEA
(Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act) and rehabilitates sidewalks that have root damage from city trees. This program also facilitates
compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act as it relates to the pedestrian network as well as improving localized drainage issues.

Project Name Water Quality Improvements Category ARPA Fund
Status Active
Total Project Cost: $1,287,500
Description
This project was first identified by staff and the 2006 Water Master Plan Update, and has since become further refined with the FY 2006 Water
Quality Evaluation. Projects to be included under this category primarily consist of replacement or relining of old unlined cast iron water main
within the City’s water distribution system; system upgrades to improve system control; and utilization of a consultant to provide additional design
and evaluation services, as needed. Recent research and data collection has produced a Water Main Rehabilitation Priority List, based on several
criteria to identify water mains that are in need of replacement or relining. Pipes will be upgraded according to the severity of the pipe condition,
as well as coordination with the City of Dover’s Public Services Street Rehabilitation Program. Between FY 2008 and FY 2010, the deep well
contact chambers were designed and installed. Between FY 2008 and FY 2011 the water mains that were replaced include, Washington Street,
Pennsylvania Avenue, South Street, Pear Street, West Street, Hazel Road, Maryland Avenue, American Avenue, Bayard Avenue, Greenhill
Avenue, Bayard Avenue Alley and Loockerman Street. Operational efforts, such as flushing, will continue to occur on a routine basis. FY 2012
improvements include, N. Pennsylvania Ave., American Ave. Ext., Madison St., Rodney Rd., New Street, Ross Street and Bradford Street (near
Wesley College). FY 2013 improvements included North Street. As part of the Water Main Rehabilitation Priority List, water lines were
identified throughout the City that requires replacement/relining. FY 2017 improvement include: New Street (Water St. to Loockerman). FY
2018 improvements included: Bradford Street (Loockerman St. to Division St.) and William Street (Pear St. to State St.). FY 2019 improvements
included: Lakewood Place. FY 2020 improvements included: Columbia Avenue. FY 2021 improvements included: N. West St. West Alley and
Ross Street. FY 2022 improvements included the partial funding of N. State Street. FY23 are as follows:
•N. State Street (Division Street to Columbia Street) - $905,000
•West Street East Alley (Walker Road to William Street ) - $382,500
Justification
Water quality complaints have eroded consumer confidence in the City’s water supply as the water is perceived to be aesthetically unpleasant. In
order to reduce complaints and potentially alleviate this problem, it is necessary to implement the improvements identified by staff, the 2006 Water
Master Plan Update, and the FY 2006 Water Quality Evaluation. Delaying or eliminating this project will prolong customer dissatisfaction and
further erode confidence in the City’s water supply. In addition, main rehabilitation and replacement, ensuring pipes do not significantly exceed
the expected life cycle, is critical to provide a reliable supply of water for our customers and for fire suppression. Water leaks and breaks on older
lines can have a significant impact on our ability to serve over time. Addressing the brown water and associated water quality concerns of the
City’s water system will not only require capital improvements to the system but also operational changes. Some operation changes will result in
no net effect on the operating budget, while others will need to be addressed in the development of future operating budgets. Such items include
tools and supplies necessary to improve system sampling and monitoring as well as tools and supplies necessary to improve system-wide flushing
operations.

Highlights: Presentation of the personnel and materials/supplies costs
during FY22 was not broken out from the Administrative expenditure
category due to timing and contract changes.
FY23 reflects staffing reductions/contract revisions for power plant
operations as reflected in new contract recently approved and in place for
future years.
McKee Run is being Decommissioned. The Environmental consultant as well
as TEA/Dover Energy Management Committee are working through the next
steps in preparing an RFP for demolition. Funded by Depreciation Reserves.

Highlights: Power supply costs have more than tripled. Pricing
was below $40 in July 2021, rose to $50.25 in Dec 2021 to $160 in
April 2022.
We have not seen pricing such as this in approximately 10-15 years,
so roughly 2006-2008.
The City continuous to make hedging decisions that favor the City’s
portfolio.
A new Rate Study is underway, that will help us to align operating,
capital, reserves and customer charges.

SPECIAL REVENUE FUNDS
Special Revenue Funds include the group of funds classified as grant funds and a Realty
Transfer Tax Fund. The proceeds from specific revenue sources are restricted to
specified expenditure purposes. The City adopts budgets for selected Special Revenue
Funds. Combining and individual statements appear in this section.
POLICE GRANTS
The City of Dover Police Department receives various grants from the State of Delaware
for public and highway safety and the U.S. Department of Justice for local law
enforcement. All grant transactions are recorded in this fund.
LIBRARY GRANTS
The City of Dover Public Library receives various grants from the State of Delaware,
Kent County, and the Federal Government. Activities associated with these grants are
recorded in this fund.
MUNICIPAL STREET AID
The State of Delaware has passed legislation to share a portion of Delaware’s motor
fuel tax revenue with local municipalities through grants. The amount of the grant the
City receives depends on its population and miles of streets maintained. The grant is
used for street light expense within the City.
CDBG HOUSING GRANTS & NEIGHBORHOOD STABILIZATION PROGRAM
The City receives a U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development Entitlement
Grant for the Community Development Block Grant Program. This is to provide decent
housing, a suitable living environment and expand economic opportunities primarily for
people of low and moderate incomes. Combined with the CDBG Fund is the
Neighborhood Stabilization Program (NSP) that provides assistance in the
redevelopment of residential properties that have been abandoned and foreclosed upon
to stabilize residential communities.

SPECIAL REVENUE FUNDS
(continued)
STATE OF DELAWARE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION GRANTS
The State of Delaware Department of Transportation grants provide funds for specific
street projects in the City. State law provides funds to the State’s elected officials for
suburban street aid, which officials can then provide to their respective districts. The
City receives these funds for designated street projects and records all transactions for
this fund.
SUBSTANCE ABUSE PREVENTION GRANT
The State of Delaware General Assembly Grant-In-Aid Program provides funds to
implement an after-school program for at-risk and/or disadvantaged youths in the City
of Dover. The City runs this program out of the Parks & Recreation Department.
ELECTRONIC RED-LIGHT SAFETY PROGRAM (ERLSP)
The State of Delaware Department of Transportation provides a grant to municipalities
that implement the Electronic Red- Light Safety Program. Under this program, the City
is granted a portion of the fines collected from drivers who are ticketed for running red
lights installed with electronic photo identification equipment within the City limits.
REALTY TRANSFER TAX
Delaware Code states that realty transfer tax realized by the City shall be segregated
from the general fund and the funds shall be expended solely for the capital and
operating costs of public safety services, economic development programs, public works
services, capital projects and improvements, infrastructure projects and improvements
and debt reduction.
LODGING TAX
In 2019 the Delaware General Assembly authorized Kent County and the City of Dover
to charge up to 3% of the cost of a room rental at a hotel, motel or other overnight
lodging business as provided in 30 Del C. §6101. On September 30, 2019 the Dover
City Council approved Ordinance #2019-16 adopting a phased-in lodging tax for the
City of Dover. On July 1, 2020 a tax of 0.5% will be implemented. On July 1, 2021 the
rate will be 1.0% and a year later the lodging tax will be increased to 1.5% and remain
at that level unless changed by the City Council.
