Item 3. ACTION FORM PROCEEDING: Safety Advisory and Transportation Committee DEPARTMENT OF ORIGIN: City Manager DATE SUBMITTED: 11/21/2022 PREPARED BY: David Hugg SUBJECT: 2023 Transportation Priorities REFERENCE: n/a RELATED PROJECT: n/a REVIEWED BY: David Hugg EXHIBITS: 2023 Transportation Priorities List EXPENDITURE REQUIRED: n/a AMOUNT BUDGETED: n/a FUNDING SOURCE (Dept./Page in CIP & Budget): n/a TIMETABLE: November 29, 2022 STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Approval of 2023 Transportation Priorities BACKGROUND AND ANALYSIS Each year the City of Dover prepares a prioritized list of transportation projects for consideration by DelDOT and the Dover/Kent County MPO. We have added a category classification to better indicate how these projects address important needs in the city. The list includes 17 projects: 4 are primarily economic development projects; 7 are safety and capacity projects; 4 are transportation system enhancements; and two are recommended for deferral at this time. Following approval the recommended 2022 Transportation Priorities will be sent to the Secretary of Transportation (DelDOT) and the Executive Director of the Dover/Kent County Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO), for consideration and ranking for funding. 23

Item 3. For consideration by Safety Advisory and Transportation Committee CITY OF DOVER 2023 TRANSPORTATION PRIORITIES DRAFT November 7, 2022 Each year the City of Dover prepares a prioritized list of transportation projects for consideration by DelDOT and the Dover/Kent County MPO. We have added a category classification to better indicate how these projects address important needs in the city. The first project in each grouping is our highest priority. The 2023 list follows. ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT PRIORITIES: Garrison Connector This remains the City’s highest priority request, providing a direct connection between the Garrison Oak Business and Technology Park and the Route 1 interchange at N. Little Creek Road (Route 8). A direct connection from the Garrison Oak Business and Technology Center to the SR 1 Interchange at N. Little Creek Road has been Dover’s highest priority transportation project request for several years. The city is aware of business development opportunities that were not successful due to the existing access which is not conducive to efficient freight transportation. Access to this business center involves using local roads for the movement of goods and materials and for employee access. In 2019 the list of permissible uses of the GOBTC were expanded to include warehousing, distribution and logistics support, a rapidly growing cluster in the Central Delaware Region. A recently completed Dover Air Cargo Freight Access Study (Dover/Kent County MPO, July 2021) reinforced the potential for significant employment growth in the Garrison Oak - Central Delaware Aviation Complex portion of the city. For these opportunities to be realized a complete business-to- business connector serving the area is essential. The Garrison Oak portion is recommended as Phase I of that program, with an estimated cost of $4.7 million. The study outlined scope, existing conditions, primary alignments and design, and costs for a multi-phased project. This roadway system is consistent with and supportive of the future growth and development plans set forth in both the City and County Comprehensive Plans. The project is included in the FY23-28 CTP. Business-Business Connector Roads (N. Little Creek Road to Horsepond Road; Horsepond Road, Lafferty Lane and Starlifter Drive) These roads were priority requests to DelDOT and the Dover/Kent County MPO last year reflecting the completion of regional freight movement and air cargo studies by the MPO. These roads are a continuation of the Garrison Oak Connector project, extending a business focused limited access connection from the SR1/N. Little Creek Road interchange south to S. Little creek Road (Phase II); improvements to Horsepond Road and Lafferty Lane to facilitate imminent business development (Phase III); and an extension of Starlifter Road (Phase IV) to facilitate the development of the East Dover Employment Center as outlined in City and County Comprehensive Plans. These improvements increase safety by taking industrial traffic off local streets, improve regional freight access, and support the long- term viability of the East Dover Industrial Center, the Kent County Aeropark and the Central Delaware 24

Page 25

Item 3. Aviation Complex. Preliminary cost estimates for these segments total $13 million, including planning, engineering, ROW, and construction. The city urges that initial funding for these improvements be approved as soon as possible. These phases are not currently in the CTP. Loockerman Street and Forest Avenue Intersection Improvements This project was requested by the city to help spur redevelopment activities in the Downtown Development District while improving traffic circulation and safety. It was identified as a needed improvement through the Restoring Central Dover Study and the Westside Redevelopment Study conducted in 2001. It is complementary to the Capital Gateway Study and would result in improved traffic circulation, a more pedestrian friendly zone at the railroad crossing, and create a new gateway into the Downtown. Work on this project has been deferred due to opposition to the design option (roundabout). It should be reviewed as part of the DDP’s proposed Downtown Master Plan activity. It is not funded and not included in the current CTP. Downtown Strategic Plan Improvements (Per MOSAIC) – not in CTP MOSAIC (Downtown Master Plan planning consultant) has recommended to the DDP a number of items for consideration. Many of the short-term recommendations involve painted curb extensions, increased crosswalk visibility, and signage improvements. Long term recommendations include physical changes to crosswalks and curbs, roadway modification, signalization, raised street beds, and possible connectivity improvements. As the Downtown Master Plan evolves these projects will be more fully detailed and costed. These improvements are not yet prioritized. SAFETY AND CAPACITY IMPROVEMENTS PRIORITIES Saulsbury Road/Route 8 Corridor Plan Improvements (SR8 & SR 15 Intersection) – Under Construction Previously part of a broader Kenton Road/Route 8 Corridor Program, this project involves improvements at Route 8 and Route 15, which are already in planning, design, and ROW acquisition. The work involves improved turn and thru lane improvements. The Route 8 Corridor Design Study (2008) also identified several improvements along the Route 8 Corridor that will improve safety, better manage access, reduce congestion, and provide improved traffic flow. This project was identified in the 2012 Hazard Elimination Program. It is funded for construction in FY 2021 and FY 2022. Construction is underway on these improvements. Kenton Road Corridor Upgrades, Kenton Road to Chestnut Grove Road - Under Construction The companion project to the improvements along Route 8 are upgrades to Kenton Road from Route 8 to Chestnut Grove Road. This project is in planning, design, and ROW acquisition stages and includes full roadway development with drainage, shoulders, travel lanes, bike lanes, traffic calming, and related improvements. The Kenton Road Corridor project is focused on improved traffic flow as well as improved pedestrian and bicycle safety. It is critical to improving the approach to the city from the northwest where new residential development within and outside the city continues. Planning, engineering, and ROW acquisition are underway with advanced utility and signalization actions proceeding currently. Construction is scheduled for completion by 2024. The City has also requested that the MPO further study the conditions along Route 8 west of Kenton Road to the City’s westerly limits. 25

Page 26

Item 3. College Road – Kenton Road to McKee Road This high priority project consists of pavement rehabilitation, construction of shoulders and sidewalks on both sides of College Road, intersection and drainage improvements, bike safety improvements, utility relocations and complete pavement. This roadway serves as a critical east-west connector and this project addresses transportation and safety issues for all modes and users. It is very narrow, poorly drained and unsafe for vehicles, pedestrians and bicyclists. It is scheduled for design starting in FY 2023 with construction starting in FY2025. ROW acquisition will be difficult. Sidewalks within the Walk Zone of Dover High School Critical gaps in the sidewalk system near Dover High School remain, including along Mifflin Road and Route 8 on the south side of the roadway traveling west. This project incorporates recommendations from the Capital Gateway Study and Senator Bikeway Plan. The city is a high priority safety concern in this area. The City urges funding through the statewide safety improvement program at the earliest opportunity. N. Governors/N. Bradford/Ross Street intersection (6-Way) This project resulted from several traffic accidents and related safety issues at what is a six-way intersection of local streets and N. Governors Avenue, a high-volume collector/minor arterial through the city. Traffic volumes and flow are currently being studied by DelDOT with the possibility of construction of a roundabout or other traffic calming improvements being undertaken early in 2023. West Street Improvements from New Burton Road to the Transit Center This project widens West Street to urban collector standards and includes bike lanes and sidewalks connection to the Dover Transit Hub. The project was identified by the Dover/Kent County MPO as part of their pedestrian studies. West Street is an important connection for the DART transit services to the city. Improvements were made in 2018 with completion of a multi-use path along West Street The completion of the new Dover Post Office increases the importance of this project. Planning, engineering, and construction beginning in FY 2025. McKee Road/Saulsbury Road Study The Dover/Kent County MPO has commissioned a capacity study of the McKee/Saulsbury corridor from the US13/Scarborough Road intersection to the north to the POW-MIA Parkway/US13 intersection to the south. This initiative is looking at potential capacity expansion as a result of past and future development, as well the impact of improvements such as those at the Route 8/Route 15 intersection. Improvements under possible consideration include addition of thru traffic lanes and turn lanes. The city supports this proactive study to identify future growth-related impacts. TRANSPORTATION STSTEM IMPROVEMENT PRIORITIES Kings Highway/White Oak Road and Route 13 Intersection The intersection of Kings Highway/White Oak Road/US 13 needs improvements to meet acceptable levels of service (now functioning at LOE “E”). Extensive adjacent commercial development, along with nearby recreational and institutional uses have added traffic and access burdens to this intersection. Nearby multi-use paths contribute to increased bike and pedestrian traffic as well. This intersection was 26

Page 27

Item 3. identified in the DelDOT Transportation Operations Management Plan as a congestion hotspot in Kent County. Recommendations include adding a two-stage pedestrian crossing system and revising the intersection at White Oak Road and Centre Drive to provide additional access to US 13. The revised plans for Senator Bikeway include a crossing of US 13 at this intersection; this enhanced bicycle crossing must be included in planning and engineering of this project. This intersection is also a gateway to the downtown. Banning Street/Clarence Street/Forest Street Connector The Dover/Kent County MPO has completed a study assessing the construction of a connector from North Street at the Banning Street signal running along Clarence Street and extending north to Forest Street. This study is an update to a study of the transportation needs in this area from about 2000. It includes consideration of flooding, traffic flow, and intersection alignments near Lincoln and Forest Streets. This new project is included as a placeholder pending completion of the Study and development of alignments and costs. It is not i9n the current CTP. US 13 Sidewalk Construction Construction of multi-use paths and sidewalks continues to be a city priority. Construction of sidewalks is required when properties are developed or redeveloped but significant sections of the sidewalk system are either missing or in poor condition. This program is ongoing and funded through the state’s sidewalk safety improvement program and included in the FY2022-2028 CTP. The MPO is conducting an inventory and assessment of the existing sidewalk system throughout the US13 commercial corridor. Design is complete on some crosswalks/curbs, ramps and signal pedestals; construction is ongoing. US 13 Service Roads/Scarborough Road C&D Roads This project would create a collector and destruction system of service roads parallel to US 13 from Leipsic Road to Scarborough Road and a set of local access roads to the Dover Mall and adjacent commercial complex. These roads were recommended as part of the US Route 13 Circulation Sturdy and the State’s Corridor Capacity Preservation Program intended to decrease traffic on the corridor by providing more use of service roads through the area. Changing economic considerations have stalled discussions of the commercial complex adjacent to the mall and any plans for the privately funded roadways. For these reasons the project has been moved toward the end of the priority listing. This request is in the current CTP but not ranked highly. PROJECTS TO BE DEFERRED Crawford Carroll Avenue Extension This project was part of a proposed series of service roads serving the commercial activities on both sides of US13. As a result of concerns about the feasibility of the project expressed by DelDOT, the project has been removed from the DelDOT CTP, FY21-26 spending plan. The city encourages continued consideration of other service road improvement opportunities on both the west and east side of US 13 even if the original design is not achievable. 27

Item 3. Route 8/Hazelettville Connector (Commerce Way to SR8) A north/south connector from Route 8 to Commerce Way in the Enterprise Business Park was identified in the Route 8 Concept Plan and Operations Study to encourage economic development and provide traffic circulation options in this heavily traveled corridor. The project proposed a new connector road with 2 travel lanes, bike lanes and sidewalks or multi-use paths for pedestrians. A preliminary alignment has been determined as part of development activity on Route 8. A recent study indicated that there was no immediate need for this connection suggesting its deferral until a later date. 28

RELATED PROJECT: EXHIBITS Exhibit A – Governing Policy Exhibit B – Dover Notional Transaction Limits (explanation purposes only) STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Approve the proposed amendments to the Governing Policy for Energy Commodity for Risk Management BACKGROUND AND ANALYSIS: This Policy provides oversight to the Dover management team and TEA (The Energy Authority) in conducting and transacting business on behalf of Dover utility. The Policy provides a framework and delegation of responsibilities to guide and administer the activities related to Dover’s energy commodity risk management. The Policy establishes organizational structure, delegates responsibility, and establishes internal controls and procedures to ensure transactional and oversight activities are conducted in compliance with the Policy and in accordance with the City’s normal operations, regulatory reporting and legal requirements relating to energy assets and transactions. There are several small revisions to the Policy consisting of basic housekeeping items in keeping with the current market and standard terms in relation to risk management. The most significant change requested with this annual review is found on page 14 of the Policy under Risk Limits and Risk Measurement Subparagraph 1. Delegation Authority. The Energy Risk Management Committee (ERMC) is requesting Council approve an increase in the notional value limit from $20 million to $40 million for the Dover ERMC in committing to financial obligations. We have continued to see significant increase in the forward market pricing which has continued to erode the purchasing power of the ERMC. This erosion reduces the purchasing capability of the ERMC which is why we bring this change before you this year. Exhibit B - Dover Notional Transaction Limits Evaluation provides a great visual of the reduced purchasing power - historical (8/24/15) vs current market (9/9/22). 33

Item 2. PURPOSE OF THE RISK MANAGEMENT POLICY A. Introduction The City of Dover (“City”) and its customers are routinely exposed to commodity risk, counterparty risk, process risk, budget risk, and regulatory risk – herein referred to collectively as Energy Commodity Risk - in the normal conduct of serving its electric load requirements. Volatility of energy commodity prices and volumetric uncertainty (either supply/generation or load obligations) impose a substantial and direct risk to the City’s financial and operating performance. By authority of its charter, the City has responsibility for overseeing the City’s electricity operations, including the management of its cost of serving Dover’s customers with primary operational management authority vested in the City Manager (Dover City Charter §40). By agreement (the “EMA”) dated May 6, 2011 and approved by the City, the City has engaged The Energy Authority, Inc. (“TEA”) to assist the City with Asset Management and Strategic Planning Services, Risk Management Services, and Energy Management Services. This Policy for Energy Commodity Risk Management (“Policy”) is established the explicit understanding that the City has retained and delegated responsibilities to TEA to provide Risk Management Services. Additionally, the City has issued this Policy for dealing with the philosophy, framework and delegation of responsibilities necessary to govern activities related to Dover’s energy commodity risk management. As set forth herein, the City has established an organizational structure, delegated responsibility and established internal controls and procedures to ensure that all transactional and oversight activities are conducted in compliance with this Policy and in accordance with the City’s normal reporting, legal, financing and regulatory requirements relating to energy assets and transactions. B. Scope of Policy This Policy covers all transactions entered into by the City of Dover designed to meet the City’s electric load requirement and the management of risk related to these transactions. In the event of conflict between this Policy and the EMA, the more restrictive document shall control. 4 37

Page 38

Item 2. This Policy is separate and distinct from enterprise risk management policies and procedures addressing the City’s safe operation of its generating stations and energy infrastructure, insurance requirements, permit compliance, employee matters regulatory compliance with laws and regulations of the State of Delaware and Federal Agencies such as EPA, FERC, NERC and CFTC or other potential risks to the City beyond the purchase and sale of fuel and electric power and its ancillary products. Unless otherwise explicitly stated in this Policy, or other policies approved by the Utility Committee, this Policy applies to all power and fuel procurement and related business activities that may impact the energy market risk profile of the City. This policy documents the framework by which management and staff will:  Identify and quantify risk  Develop and execute procurement strategies  Create a framework of controls and oversight  Monitor, measure, and report on the effectiveness of the risk management C. Objectives and Risk Philosophy The objectives of the Policy are to identify Energy Commodity price and credit risk exposures and give the City a framework for the quantification and management of these exposures. The Policy will identify the reports needed to convey how the identified risk exposures can potentially impact the City’s overall cost of providing electricity service to its customers and report on the risk management of the transactions associated with City’s electric load requirements. Under the Policy, risk management activities will be conducted consistent with the City’s overall objective of appropriate risk management. There are several objectives of the Policy which, when taken and executed together, serve to manage the City’s energy commodity price exposures. Specifically, the Policy:  Establishes framework for developing credit limits for counterparties and quantifies and manages the credit exposures related to potential counterparty abrogation  Quantifies the impact of the energy commodity price and credit risk exposures on City’s financial results  Manages the impact of the above exposures in line with the City’s identified level of risk tolerance  Provides clear delineation of responsibilities and authority, outlines a separation of duties, and ensures reporting of risk is timely and accurate.  Ensures that the impact of any action affecting the City’s position is consistently quantified, monitored and authorized. 5 38

Page 39

Item 2. The City’s risk management activities will be conducted consistent with its overall objective of appropriate risk mitigation and never for purposes of speculation. D. Policy Administration This Policy has been approved by the Executive Risk Management Committee and The Utility Committee of the Dover City Council Committee of the Whole. The Utility Committee must approve modifications to the Policy, with the exception of the appendix information which can be modified with the approval of the Executive Risk Management Committee. DISCUSSION OF RISKS This Policy covers the management of all material energy market risks faced by the City. A comprehensive list of risks that are or could be relevant to the City is shown in Appendix C of the Policy. Among the most critical of these risks are commodity risk, counterparty risk, process risk, volume risk, and budget risk. These risks are measured by the limit structure and controls outlined in the Policy. Commodity risk represents the potential adverse impacts to the value of the City’s portfolio due to changes in the market or government policy. Commodity risk encompasses volatility risk, forward price risk, basis risk, correlation risk and liquidity risk. Volatility risk is incurred by sudden changes to the cost and value of market instruments. Forward Price Risk is the impact of future prices differing from historical prices as well as the potential for changing prices to result in mark-to-market exposure. Basis risk is incurred whenever prices differ between procurement and consumption location for power or fuel products. Correlation Risk is a reflection that multiple assets may experience varying degrees of similar movement which may change over time. Liquidity Risk is experienced when a commodity may be less available to buy or sell due to counterparties being unable or unwilling to transact a commodity in a normal timeframe. without altering the pricing of that commodity. Counterparty risk represents the potential losses the City could incur due to delivery risk and receivable risk. Delivery risk stems from a supplier or trading counterparty that is unable or unwilling to perform on its commitments including but not limited to delivery or receipt of commodities which would require the City to procure alternative supply at market prices. Receivable Risk includes the City’s risk associated with a counterparty’s timeliness of payment for services rendered. Process risk represents the risks associated with process problems including, but not limited to, inaccurate data capture, untimely trade execution or incorrect settlement. 6 39

Page 40

Item 2. Controls over process risks are embedded in the organizational structure of TEA through the design processes and operating procedures. Volume Risk represents the potential for unforeseen changes from projections of excess or shortfall of capacity or energy from the actual needs. When variances are large coupled with large costs to transact and adverse moves in market prices this risk could be realized. In management of this risk, the City must be aware of the fact that unexpected variations in volume are often highly correlated with price movements. compounding the impact of volume in a phenomenon known as Covariance Risk. Budget Risk represents the potential to deviate outside of tolerable bounds of the City’s budget. Deviations from budget can be caused by forecast error or unforeseeable adverse changes in market prices. Regulatory Risk arises from participation in regulated markets. With the Independent System Operator (ISO) implementation of Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) Order 741, the City faces increasing regulatory risk when participating in wholesale energy markets. The TEA Compliance department works in conjunction with the TEA Risk Control department to help the City manage regulatory risk. Regulatory risk is managed by:  Annual Compliance Training for all employees participating in regulated markets;  Integration of the appropriate compliance culture within the Trading department through ongoing interaction between Compliance and Trading;  An independent monitoring and exposure measurement on transactions that could trigger an increase in regulatory risk. MANAGEMENT AND CONTROLS This Policy articulates the management and organization of the City and TEA to serve as a control framework outlining delegation of duties and responsibilities. A. Utility Committee of The City Council The Utility Committee of The City Council Committee of the Whole (The Committee) has a responsibility to provide approval of this Policy. With this approval, The Committee also assumes additional duties. The Committee will understand the risks the City is and could be exposed to due to their energy commodity risk management activities. In this role, the Committee will have a responsibility to also understand the City’s policies and procedures, internal controls and systems which are used to help manage the City’s energy commodity risks. 7 40

Standards of Conduct Individuals authorized to transact for the City shall not misrepresent, conceal or withhold information regarding energy commodity trading and risk management transactions to any person responsible for the accurate recording and/or reporting of such transactions; participate in any such transaction or similar activity for the benefit of any party other than the City; or hold or be a beneficiary of any financial interest in any entity with which the employee is engaged in trading or other business activity (other than ownership of an interest in a mutual fund managed by another party). Commented [KG2]: Are there Dover or Delaware ordinances to reference on this? Further, no employee authorized to place or execute such transactions may engage in 11 44

Page 45

Item 2. trading power or energy commodities derivative instruments for his or her personal account. It is the expressed intent of this Policy to prohibit the acquisition of risk beyond that encountered in the efficient optimization of the City’s generation and load portfolio and execution of procurement strategies. As such, speculative transactions are prohibited. In the course of developing operating plans and conducting management activities, the City recognizes that expertise must be employed by TEA staff, and it is not the intent of this Policy to restrain the legitimate application of analysis and market expertise in executing procurement strategies intended to minimize costs within the constraints of this Policy. If any questions arise as to whether a proposed transaction(s) constitutes speculation, TEA shall conduct an analysis of the transaction and the ERMC shall review the transaction(s) to determine whether the transaction(s) would constitute speculation and document its finding in the meeting minutes. Commented [KG3]: Are there Dover charter or state laws that govern this? B. Products, Activities and Limitations Pursuant to achieving the City’s core objectives for the purpose of energy commodity risk management, the following limitations shall apply.  Permissible instruments will be restricted to the products and instruments specified in Appendix A – Approved Products of the Policy; o All physical forward transactions shall be governed by the Edison Electrical Institutive (EEI), North American Energy Standards Board (NAESB), International Swap Dealers Association (ISDA), or similar agreements with counterparties approved by the City. o The City reserves the right to enter into financial hedge transactions to effectuate Policy objectives, but does not authorize TEA to enter into financial hedge transactions on its behalf. Any such financial transactions that the City may enter into shall be governed by ISDA agreements with counterparties as approved by the City.  The maturity for each permissible instrument will be restricted to the maturity limits specified in the risk limits section of the Policy.  Transaction volumes for each risk management transaction will be restricted to the amounts specified in the Risk Limits section of the Policy.  Risk management transactions will be outlined in the City of Dover Hedge Program which will be approved by the ERMC. Risk management transactions will include the following: o Managing the forward price of purchased power for delivery to the City as needed to meet its electric load requirements. o Managing the forward price of natural gas and fuels as needed to generate power to meet the City’s electric load or generation requirements. 12 45

Page 46

Item 2. o Unwinding or modification of hedges to accommodate changes in expected load requirements, or for economic reasons subject to explicit constraints set by the ERMC. C. Contract Documentation and Confirmations No over-the-counter transaction may be executed until an EEI, NAESB, ISDA, or similar agreement has been authorized by the City, approved by the ERMC and fully executed by the parties. Written confirmations will be required from counterparties, as defined in the Master Service Agreement between the City and counterparty. Contemporaneous with any commitments and prior to receipt of written confirmations, verbal commitments shall be memorialized internally as to instrument structure, quantity, relevant time horizon, price and any other relevant terms; such internal documentation shall be time stamped and correlated to the ultimate written confirmation to or from the counterparty. Both the internal documentation as well as the written confirmation from the counterparty shall be provided to TEA’s Risk Control Group immediately upon receipt for verification. In the event that there is a material failure to provide timely documentation or confirmations, then at the City Manager’s sole discretion, the offending individual’s or counterparty’s authorization may be suspended. Similarly, if the failure to provide timely documentation or confirmations is due to the failure of counterparty, then at the discretion of the City Manager, a moratorium may be imposed on transactions with that counterparty. In such cases, the City Manager shall notify the ERMC of the issues leading to the suspension or moratorium. Nothing herein shall inhibit any ERMC Member from bringing control issues to the TEA’s Client Services Manager prior to a decision on materiality or the imposition of a suspension of trading privileges or counterparty moratorium. D. Training The ERMC will ensure that all City employees and/or TEA Staff that will execute transactions on behalf of the City will have appropriate training in the markets in which the transactions occur. E. New Product Protocol 13 46

Page 47

Item 2. As required to manage the City’s energy commodity risk the ERMC shall approve new products provided the requirements of the New Product Approval Procedure are met. RISK LIMITS AND RISK MEASUREMENTS A. Limits The limit structure is designed to quantify the types of risk in the City’s energy commodity portfolio. The City will manage and report on its energy commodity market risk using Delegation of Authority Limit, a Volume Limit and a Locational Limit. 1. Delegation Authority The Utility Committee delegates the following approval authority limits to the Dover ERMC. The ERMC may not delegate these authorities to individuals authorized to commit Dover to financial obligations. Position Maturity Limit Term Limit Notional Value Limit Dover ERMC 5 years 5 years 20,000,000 TEA 1 month 1 month 1,000,000 Position Maturity Limit Term Limit Notional Value Limit Dover ERMC 5 years 5 years 40,000,000 TEA 1 month 1 month 1,000,000 This limit structure is not intended for use when transacting day-ahead and real time in the PJM market. 2. Volume Limits No transaction shall be executed that exceeds the City’s electric load requirements other than operation of generation consistent with PJM activities. If there is an adjustment to the City’s electric load requirements and the existing transactions greater than 100% of the adjusted electric load requirements the ERMC will review and approve the offsetting strategy deployed in sufficient proportion to mitigate the encroachment. 3. Locational Limits Non-Commodity Transactions must support the requirement of one of the City’s generation units, native load, or transaction locations. 14 47

Page 48

Item 2. B. Stress Testing and Back Testing The City’s positions shall be periodically stress tested and models shall be back tested. The processes around these tests are outlined in the Stress Testing and Back Testing Procedure. C. Instances of Exceeding Risk Limits Should the City or TEA enter into a transaction that causes the portfolio to exceed any above mentioned limits the Electric Director shall, in addition to notifying the ERMC, also notifyERMC shall notify the Chair of The Committee as soon as practicable and shall provide periodic reports to the Chair on the status the transactions for as long as the City is exceeding its limits. The ERMC will review and determine whether any liquidation or offsetting of transactions is warranted. The incident will be documented as a Policy Exception by the Electric DirectorERMC . CREDIT POLICY Credit Risk is the risk due to the uncertainty in a counterparty’s ability to meet its contractual obligations. The primary objective of this credit policy is to manage, to the extent commercially reasonable, the credit risks associated with transactions covered in this Policy while still allowing the City to achieve its objectives. A. Measuring Credit Risk The status of credit risk will be measured and reported through reports provided by TEA. The current credit exposure will be reported at the agreement level via a Counterparty Credit Report provided by TEA. This information will be made available to TEA trading personnel so that it can be checked prior to executing transactions for the City. Those responsible for risk oversight at the City and TEA will have access to this information no less frequently than once per day. The ERMC will monitor overall credit utilization and any credit exceptions at least monthly. When measuring the current credit risk, netting will be applied to the exposure if the City’s contract with a counterparty includes provisions for netting. B. Analysis and Extension of Credit Limits Physical and financial commodity transactions will be executed with counterparties approved by the ERMC with credit available to support the transactions. The 15 48

Page 49

Item 2. creditworthiness of a counterparty will be determined by both qualitative and quantitative factors. Factors shall include, but not limited to:  A company’s debt credit ratings provided by the rating agencies.  Financial data such as an analysis of the income statement, balance sheet, and cash flow, as well as liquidity and capital structure.  Subjective factors such as company’s fuel diversity, overall size, risk management policy and internal controls, geographic diversity, and market intelligence. A credit limit is the amount of unsecured credit granted to a counterparty. Unsecured credit exposure includes amounts owed by the counterparty, whether billed or not, and the mark-to-market differences in value in excess of any collateral which the counterparty has provided the City. Any net exposure above the collateral threshold will require the posting of additional collateral by a counterparty. or an exception from the ERMC. Further information on the City’s procedure for establishing credit is contained in the Counterparty & Credit Review Process. Collateral thresholds, term limitations and credit exposure limits will be subject to the maximums indicated in Appendix B, based upon the lower of the S&P and Moody’s credit ratings. At no time will the City incur a credit exposure with any counterparty greater than $60,000,000 other than PJM. C. Instances of Exceeding Credit Limits The City and TEA are restricted by the credit limits approved by the ERMC. The ERMC can suspend trading with a counterparty, if that counterparty’s credit limit has been reached or exceeded. The City or TEA traders shall not exceed the Counterparty Credit Limit by executing transactions with any counterparty without approval of the ERMC. The ERMC will determine when it’s appropriate to require additional collateral if a counterparty’s credit exposure exceeds its credit limit. Collateral includes standing letter of credit, cash, and prepayments. All credit exceptions will be documented and reported to the ERMC and the Committee as Policy Exceptions. REPORTING A. Risk Reporting 16 49

Page 50

Item 2. Preparation of timely reports is critical to monitoring risk. TEA will furnish the required reports on a regular frequency for the City in a format acceptable to the ERMC. In addition, the ERMC and its designees will be provided access to the City’s risk reports as updated daily via TEA’s secure Web Portal. Reports required on a monthly basis and for periodic meetings of the ERMC include the following:  Profit and Loss Report The Profit and Loss (P&L) Report shows the daily realization of transactions at either the transaction price or the market price as transactions roll from unrealized to realized. This report should show volumes, transaction prices and market prices of realized physical and financial power and fuel transactions.  Mark to Market Report The Mark to Market (“MTM”) Report conveys the potential transaction exposure, of all existing forward transactions executed, if the energy commodity portfolio was liquidated at the most recent market settlement prices. This report should show volumes, transaction prices and market prices of unrealized physical and financial power and fuel transactions.  Daily Activity Report The Activity Report presents a summary of the day’s trades executed in the bilateral energy market.  Cost of Service Report The City’s exposure to energy price risk shall be monitored and reported on a Cost-of- Service basis. All calculations are at the wholesale level. The Cost-of-Service recognizes all prior (expired) months within the Power Year on the basis of actual (incurred) costs, and recognizes all forward (pending) months within the Power Year on the basis of expected forward power and fuel prices and expected forward load-following risks. As defined below, the Cost-of-Service is an aggregation of Forward Energy Commodity Portfolio Cost, the Load Following Cost Expectation and the City’s Budget Target for Purchase Power Expense. o The Net Purchased Power Cost shows the net cost of all physical and financial transactions related to the City’s anticipated commodity requirements for power and fuel and is based on the price of all hedge transactions plus the forward market price of all unhedged transactions valued at current forward prices for energy commodities, customer-level cost per MWH of all physical and financial transactions related to Dover’s actual plus anticipated energy. o The expected fixed costs defined as load-serving entity (LSE) capacity costs, transmission costs and TEA management fees. 17 50

Page 51

Item 2. o The Expected Load-Following Cost for a specified power year is defined as the expected cost (or revenue) associated with intra-month load variations due to weather or other events affecting demand. The ERMC will update the Expected Load Following estimate while lack of necessary market information persists no less than annually. o The Budget Target for Purchase Power Expense represents the City’s view of expected purchase power expense. B. Credit Reporting  Counterparty Credit Report The Counterparty Credit Report conveys the exposure to all counterparties with which the City has credit exposure resulting from its energy commodity risk management activities.  CFTC Reporting The City understands that transacting over the counter (OTC) swaps carries an additional Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) reporting function. Once required by the CFTC, the City will report on how the City generally meets its financial obligations associated with entering into non-cleared swaps in a manner acceptable to the CFTC. C. Hedge Effectiveness Reporting If the City’s transactions require a hedge effectiveness test, those testing results will be reported to the ERMC no later than one month after the end of the financial reporting period. The report will include a summary of testing methodology, assumptions of the testing and the outcome of results with a pass or fail by transaction. INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY SYSTEMS TEA’s Middle Office will maintain a set of records for all transactions executed in association with City procurement activities. The records will be maintained in US Dollars and transactions will be separately recorded and categorized by type of transaction. The system of report shall be auditable. The following safeguards for data security and backup will be installed:  Transaction data stored in the system of record will be replicated daily to ensure data redundancy;  The TEA Energy Trading Risk Management database will be backed up at least daily. 18 51

Item 2. APPENDIX D – Glossary Back Office – That part of a trading organization which handles transaction accounting, confirmations, management reporting, and working capital management. Bilateral Transaction - Any physical or financial transaction between two counterparties, neither of whom is an Exchange or market entity (e.g. MISO). Capacity – The real power output rating of a generator or system, typically in megawatts, measured on an instantaneous basis. Commodity - A basic good used in commerce that is interchangeable with other commodities of the same type. Commodities are most often used as inputs in the production of other goods or services. The quality of a given commodity may differ slightly, but it is essentially uniform across producers. When they are traded on an exchange, commodities must also meet specified minimum standards, also known as a basis grade. Financial Bilateral Transaction – A Bilateral Transaction that is non-physical and is defined by a Source Point, Sink Point, and Delivery Point that may be any CP Nodes as specified by the Midwest ISO. Financial Forward – An agreement regarding a position in a specified commodity, a specified price, and a specified future settlement date, that does not result in physical delivery of the commodity. Rather one party in the agreement makes a payment to the other party on the basis of the commodity price at the future date. Front Office – That part of a trading organization which solicits customer business, services existing customers, executes trades and ensures the physical delivery of commodities. Hedging Transaction - A transaction designed to reduce the exposure of a specific outstanding position or portfolio; “fully hedged” equates to complete elimination of the targeted risk and “partially hedged” implies a risk reduction of less than 100%. Mark-to-Market Value – A measure of the current value of unrealized positions; includes both Open Positions and Closed Positions. Maturity – The time between the date on which a transaction is executed to the last date that power or gas will flow (in the case of physical transactions) or be settled financially (in the case of financial transactions). For products such as RECs which may be 28 61

Page 62

Item 2. delivered independent of energy flow, the maturity shall be defined as the vintage period plus any additional time it may take to deliver the RECs, which may extend beyond / past the vintage period Middle Office – That part of a trading organization that measures and reports on market risks, develops risk management policies and monitors compliance with those policies, manages contract administration and credit, and keeps management and the Board informed on risk management issues. Policy – Dover’s Governing Policy for Energy Commodity Risk, as amended and approved by The Utility Committee. Portfolio – A collection of transactions. Realized Gains/(Losses) – The amount earned (or lost) from a transaction, considered to be realized once the time for performance has lapsed (e.g. delivery of power in the case of physical transactions or expiration of an option in the case of financial transactions). Term – The total duration of a contract, defined as the number of days between the beginning flow date and ending flow date, inclusive..- Unrealized Gains/ (Losses) – The amount expected to earn (lose) on a specific transaction(s); however, the time for performance has not lapsed. The total value of Unrealized Gains/ (Losses) is the Mark-to-Market value. 29 62

Item 4. ACTION FORM PROCEEDING: 11/29/2022, Council Committee of the Whole Meeting DEPARTMENT OF ORIGIN: Police DATE SUBMITTED: 11/17/2022 PREPARED BY: Chief Thomas Johnson SUBJECT: FY23 Governor’s Update and Expansion of City Cameras Funding Award Sole Source Procurement Request (for a portion of the total project funding) REFERENCE: One-time ARPA Funding from the Governor’s Office ($1,709,949) RELATED PROJECTS: GVI Crime Analyst REVIEWED BY: City Manager, Controller EXHIBITS: Sole Vendor Request Letter from the Vendor EXPENDITURE REQUIRED: $248,400.00 PROJECT BUDGET: Not Budgeted FUNDING SOURCE (Dept./Page in CIP & Budget): This grant was not anticipated/funded for FY23. TIMETABLE: The funds were awarded as a special grant and made available on 8/30/22. Council approved funding for the Citywide Camera Program and GVI Crime Analyst. Once Sole Source approval is granted, the Vehicle Identification Camera project outlined below will start as soon as practical. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Approve the sole vendor request outlined below. BACKGROUND On September 27, 2022, the Council reviewed and approved the $1.7 Million ARPA-Funded grant from the Office of the Governor to address gun violence in Delaware. The biggest part of the grant award was the City-wide camera program improvements. The adopted program is broken up into several parts or phases. This includes the updating of existing cameras in the current city network, the expansion of the fiber network to both stabilize the current camera connections as well as supporting the planned expansion of cameras, and new hardware for the new camera locations. Lastly, the updates and expansion of the infrastructure needed at police headquarters, to use and manage the camera system, is also included in the project. In the time since Council authorized the acceptance of the ARPA funds, the Police Department became aware of an additional technology in the realm of vehicle identification. Flock Safety camera technology is already in use in other communities in Delaware and has an expanded capability to identify specific vehicle characteristics beyond just a simple license plate scan. For example, the software processes vehicle shapes, accessories, and even bumper stickers to assist with identification following a criminal event. This advanced capability is not yet available from Advantech, our current provider, and their representatives have endorsed the inclusion of Flock devices into the larger camera project. After a supplemental city-wide assessment, and an examination of the project budget, it was recommended that twenty-four (24) of the Flock independent, cellular-connected, vehicle identification cameras would be an appropriate number of devices to be added to the Dover network. The cameras will integrate with other Flock units already in use in the region to maximize the potential of solving and preventing crime. It would also compliment the cameras and support technology being installed by Advantech in other locations. 74

Page 75

Item 4. PROJECT MODIFICATION The project will continue with the same budget parameters as originally presented to Council. No new funds are requested at this time. The Flock cameras connect to a network via cellular signal instead of fiber optic cable and can be easily relocated if an installation location falls short of expectations. The cost for the 24 cameras, cellular connections, and ongoing product support, will total $248,400.00 for a four year period. The rest of the project budget will continue to be executed, in priority order, until funds are exhausted, as originally proposed. As a subscription service, all maintenance is covered and the technology is upgraded as it becomes available. PROPRIETARY PRODUCT INFORMATION Flock Safety is the only vendor that can provide law-enforcement-grade, vehicle identification technology that captures, processes and produces investigative images of crime vehicles. It is also the only technology in existence that interfaces with our Axon “In-car” cameras and Axon cloud storage through Evidence.com. In accordance with the City of Dover Purchasing policy, the City Council must approve sole source procurement purchases for requests exceeding $50,000. Additional details offering justification for Flock Safety’s sole source solution are included in the letter attached to this form. ACTION REQUESTED The Council Committee of the Whole approve the Sole Source Procurement request outlined above. 75

Page 86

C O M PA R A B L E S • A spreadsheet / matrix was created by job title (a thorough comparison of job descriptions was not performed although some were used for W AG E E Q U I T Y S T U DY U P DAT E clarification purposes). • A total of 179 positions were reviewed representing 410 active employees (as of September 12, 2022 data). • Comparables were not available for 24 positions in which case scope and responsibility were compared to other City of Dover positions. 6

Page 87

C O M PA R A B L E S • Meetings were held with Department Heads in August regarding comparisons made to date. Job descriptions were requested for additional review W AG E E Q U I T Y S T U DY U P DAT E based upon input received from these meetings. • Meetings were held with representatives of the four unions in September regarding comparisons made to date. Clarification on comparables for certain positions was performed. A primary concern of staff, such as the IBEW, was that private entities and the State of Delaware were not used. 7

• For each position, average minimum and average PAY G R A D E S maximum calculations were completed base upon comparables. • The average minimum was used to determine the proposed pay grade for each position. (Current pay W AG E E Q U I T Y S T U DY U P DAT E scales were not altered other than adding additional pay grades where needed. Positions were assigned a new pay grade, if required, based upon comparisons.) • The $15 per hour minimum wage requirement for 2025 was also taken into consideration for position placement in pay grades. 14

Page 95

• The old pay grades were compared to new pay PAY G R A D E S grades for each position by union and department to ensure step progressions and organizational hierarchies were maintained. • Proposed pay scales were adjusted where necessary W AG E E Q U I T Y S T U DY U P DAT E to ensure that these hierarchies were maintained (i.e. supervisors a higher pay grade than direct reports). 15

PLACEMENT IN GRADE • Staff members current pay was compared to the proposed pay grade minimums. W AG E E Q U I T Y S T U DY U P DAT E • Calculations were made to determine the cost to move staff pay to minimum, if applicable, as well as to place staff within the pay grade based upon years of service. • A cap was placed on pay, for placement purposes, if existing pay was greater than proposed pay. 23

Page 104

PLACEMENT IN GRADE CALCS • Years of service correlation: • 1 – 5 years = 1% increase W AG E E Q U I T Y S T U DY U P DAT E • 6 – 10 years = 2% increase • 11 – 15 years = 3% increase • 16 – 20 years = 4 % increase • 21+ years = 5% increase • Placement formula: • (proposed min pay) * (percent increase) = (placement in grade) • (placement in grade) + (proposed min 24 pay) = (new pay)

Page 105

PLACEMENT IN GRADE CALCS • Example 1: • Existing pay = $55,000 W AG E E Q U I T Y S T U DY U P DAT E • Proposed minimum pay = $50,000 • Years of service = 25 • Percent increase = 5% • Placement in grade = ($50,000) * (0.05) = $2,500 • New Pay = ($50,000) + ($2,500) = $52,500 • Existing > New Pay (capped at existing) 25

Page 106

PLACEMENT IN GRADE CALCS • Example 2: • Existing pay = $45,000 W AG E E Q U I T Y S T U DY U P DAT E • Proposed minimum pay = $50,000 • Years of service = 4 • Percent increase = 1% • Placement in grade = ($50,000) * (0.01) = $500 • New Pay = ($50,000) + ($500) = $50,500 • Existing < New Pay (move to new pay) 26

R E C O M M E N D AT I O N S - PLACEMENT • Move staff below proposed minimums to minimum: $898,353.90 est. W AG E E Q U I T Y S T U DY U P DAT E • Effects 186 employees. • Does not address placement in grade. • Move staff to placement in grade based upon years of service if greater than existing pay: $1,213,997.79 est. • Effects 227 employees. • Includes costs to move staff to minimum. 27

Page 108

R E C O M M E N D AT I O N S • No staff members wages will be decreased. • Calculations do not reflect cost of living raises W AG E E Q U I T Y S T U DY U P DAT E proposed for FY24, contractual or otherwise. • Calculations reflect adjustment to salaries only and do not reflect resulting changes to related costs such as benefit costs or overtime. • Title adjustments, reclassifications, new step progressions, new positions and promotions should be evaluated as part of the budget process. 28

Page 109

R E C O M M E N D AT I O N S - F U N D I N G • Cost estimates are to move impacted employees to minimum and adjust for time only. • Increased compensation will continue through the balance of FY23 and into FY24. This impact depends on W AG E E Q U I T Y S T U DY U P DAT E implementation date. • Funding options include: • Use of reserves, if available and consistent with bond and budget restrictions. • Freezing all vacancies/promotions/reclassifications and reallocating salary savings; delayed implementation to FY24; or partial implementation. • Application of any unbudgeted revenues or reallocation of any capital projects that do no move forward. 29
