September 20, 2018 Mrs. Robin Achenbach 21 American Avenue Dover, DE 19901 Dear Mrs. Achenbach: Councilman Slavin asked me to respond to your recent communications with him. | will recite the background on this matter so that you understand the status of your requests. Ron Coburn, Code Enforcement Officer, granted vacant building ordinance (fee) waivers to you in 2014 and 2015. The 2014 waiver was granted in reliance upon your statement that minor renovations were to be undertaken. You never obtained a permit. The 2015 waiver was granted when you indicated the renovations were continuing and that your son would occupy the premises within the year. No permit was obtained, and the premises remained unoccupied. Officer Coburn told you that no further waivers of the VBO fees would be granted unless the ordinance's exemption requirements were met. In 2016, the vacant building notice was given on May 10 and the [fee was assessed. No appeal was filed, and no permit action was taken within the 30- day appeal window. In 2017, the vacant building notice was given on March 10 and a fee of a assessed. There was no appeal filed nor was any permit action taken during the 30-day appeal period following notice. A permit application was ultimately submitted on June 26, 2017 (#17-1071); however, no permit was issued. The submission of this permit application was long after the period to request a waiver on that basis had passed. You met with the City Manager and others on or about July 10, 2017. Mrs. Mitchell agreed to waive the VBO fee. After learning the history regarding the property, Mrs. Mitchell rescinded the waiver as improvidently granted in a September 1, 2017, letter. The 2016 VBO charge was already on the tax bill issued in July 2017 before you met with the City Manager. The clean hands ordinance prevented the processing of your permit application.

Page 76

In 2018, the vacant building notice was issued on April 10 with a fee of r appeal was filed, nor any permit action taken during the 30-day appeal period following notice even though the owner was previously advised to submit for building permits to qualify for the exemption provision. This fee was also included in the 2018 tax bill recently issued by the City. Vacant Building Ordinance fees totaling 2017 & 2018) are included on that tax bill. You met with the Mayor and the City Planner (me) to discuss the issues. The time for filing an appeal had already expired at the time of the meeting as the thirty-day window for filing an appeal closed on or about May 10, 2018. The 30-day appeal period and process are clearly spelled out in the annual fee notice you received each year. Contrary to your assertion, the 2018 permit applications are not “lost”. They are in a pending mode and can only be issued after all outstanding financial obligations to the City are satisfied. The Construction and Property Maintenance Code Board of Appeals has, as recently as July of this year, repeatedly declined to grant relief when an appeal was not timely filed. Because the thirty-day appeal period has passed an appeal to them was not allowed. You attended a City Council meeting on July 23, 2018 and expressed the desire to have City Council take some action to grant you relief. Council took no action, hence the fees due to the City must be satisfied before any permits can be issued pursuant to the Clean Hands Ordinance. | believe this is an accurate summary of the history of this matter and that no further consideration is warranted unless and until your obligations to the City are met.

City of over July 16, 2018 Robin P. Achenbach Mark L. Achenbach 19 N. American Avenue Dover, DE RE: 19-21 N. American Avenue Dear Robin and Mark: Ihave reviewed the file and the status of outstanding obligations to the City as well as your recent permit applications. My intent was to see if the permits could be issued within the guidelines of the Vacant Building process and the City’s Clean Hands Ordinance. It appears: Year One (2014): The property was first registered as vacant on March 10, 2014 (year one) Ron Coburn agreed to waive the first-year ic iw response to statements that work was be undertaken for repairs —- Owner stated that minor renovations would be done but a permit was never obtained. Year Two (2015): registration was undertaken on March 11, 20015. Year two fee ves waived as owner indicated that renovations were continuing, and the son would occupy the premises within the year. No permits were secured. Owner was told that there would be no further exemptions unless exemption requirements were met. Year Three (2016): Registration was noticed on May 10, 2016 and a fee of (was assessed. There was no appeal filed nor any permit action during the 30-day appeal period. This fee was not paid during 2016 and no permits were obtained. The fee was placed on the 2017 tax bill and was eventually paid on November 30, 2017. Year Four (2017): Registration was noticed on March 10, 2017 and a fee of a: assessed. There was no appeal filed nor any permit action taken during the 30-day appeal period following notice. A permit application was ultimately submitted on June 26, 2017 (#17-1071). That permit was not issued, and its status is unclear. Fifth Year (2018) notice was issued on April 10, 2018 with a fee of rere was no appeal filed nor any permit action taken during the 30-day appeal period following notice even though the owner was previously advised to submit for building permits to qualify for the exemption provision. This fee was also included in the 2018 tax bill recently issued by the City. Vacant Building fees totaling 2027 & 2018) are included in that tax bill and are due to the City before any permits can be issued pursuant to the Clean Hands Ordinance. Upon review it was determined that the window for an appeal of the outstanding fees to the Property Management Board had closed. P. O.

At staff request, residential renovations (porch and fence) permit applications and requests for waivers of building permit fees under the Downtown Incentives program were submitted on July 13, 2018 to establish intent once any obligations to the City are satisfied. At this time these requests and applications can not be processed and are on hold. There is no further action that the Building and Inspections staff can take until all financial obligations have been cleared. Those matters fall under the domain of the City Manager and Customer Services Department. Sincergfy, David S.

September 1, 2017 Mrs. Robin Achenback 21 North American Avenue Dover, DE 19901 RE: 19 North American Avenue Dear Mrs. Achenbach: Please accept this letter as a follow up to a vacant building fee waiver | agreed to on July 10, 2017. My sincere apologies, but at the time I was not aware of the history of this matter, nor the process that is supposed to be followed to appeal a building registration fee. With this understanding, I have found that I have violated the City Code by approving this exemption, I regret to inform you, that I need to reverse this decision and have the credits reversed on your account. It would also not be proper for me to allow this to happen when all others have followed the City Code. I would appreciate it if you could please get in touch with City Clerk’s Office at (302) 736-7008 and make the necessary arrangements to appeal this matter in accordance with the City Code. Sec. 22-1. - Construction and property maintenance code board of appeals. (b) Appeals. Whenever any person is aggrieved by a decision of the building inspector with respect to the provision of this chapter, it is the right of that person to appeal to the construction and property maintenance code board of appeals. Such appeal must be filed, in writing, within 30 days after the determination by the building inspector. Please let my office know if you need additional information. Sincerely, Donna S.

November 29, 2017 Mrs. Robin Achenbach 21 North American Avenue Dover, DE 19901 RE: 19 North American Avenue Dear Mrs. Achenbach: Mayor Christiansen has shared with me your displeasure with the reversal of my decision to waive the vacant building fees as indicated in my letter of September 1, 2017. I can understand your concerns; however, I did explain the history of this case, which was not provided at the time of our origina! discussion. I have attached a copy of the history with the staff comments for your review. The history shows this matter was first documented on February 11, 2014. It also indicates in both 2014 and 2015 you would be applying for the building permits after speaking to the Inspector. The Inspector took you at your word and waived the fees as allowed by the code; however, the permit was never applied for in both instances. After receiving the first fee assessment certified letter you signed for on March 12, 2016, there was ample time to appeal the fee. The second fee assessment certified letter you signed for on March 14, 2017, also prompted no action on your part. As explained in my previous letter, I did not realize the request for me to waive the fees violated our City Code, as there is no provision for the City Manager to waive the vacant building fees under these circumstances. The relief provided to the citizens in the Dover Code is the appeal process. The Property Maintenance and Construction Code Board of Appeals can make this decision. Sincerely, Que Any dRure_ Donna S.
