Item 7. CITY SOLICITOR CITY OF REHOBOTH BEACH REQUEST FOR QUALIFICATIONS The City of Rehoboth Beach (“City”) is issuing a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) to identify and retain a City Solicitor to represent the City. As a Charter position, the City Solicitor is the Chief legal counsel to the City, which includes the City Commissioners, the City Manager, various City departments, and various City Boards and Commissions, except for the City’s Planning Commission and the City’s Board of Adjustment (each of which has its own independent counsel). The successful candidate will be hired as an independent contractor of the City. This is an exciting opportunity to work on a variety of important issues facing “the Nation’s Summer Capital” as it continues to maintain its small-town beachfront charm consistent with the needs of its residents, property owners, businesses, and visitors. CITY SOLICITOR—Code of the City of Rehoboth Beach-Charter Section #19. “The Commissioners shall select and appoint a City Solicitor for an indefinite term who shall be removable at the pleasure of The Commissioners of Rehoboth Beach either with or without due cause stated. The City Solicitor shall be a member in good standing of the Bar of the State of Delaware. It shall be his duty to give legal advice to The Commissioners and other offices of The City and to perform other legal services as may be required of him by The Commissioners.” REQUIREMENT AND DUTIES: • The City Solicitor is selected by, reports to, and is evaluated by the Commissioners of the City of Rehoboth Beach (“Commissioners”). • The City Solicitor shall be a member in good standing of the Delaware Bar and be licensed to practice law before all state Courts in the State of Delaware and the Federal District having jurisdiction over Delaware (or eligible to be admitted to practice before the Federal District Court as soon as practicable). • The candidate shall have a minimum of three years of legal experience and be licensed to practice law in Delaware for three years – five years of experience representing municipalities and government entities is preferable. The City Solicitor shall serve as an independent contractor of the City. • Except for the Planning Commission and Board of Adjustment (each of which has its own independent counsel), the City Solicitor will manage all the legal activities and representation of the City. The City Solicitor may utilize other resources in his or her firm and, in consultation with the Mayor and/or City Manager, will retain and manage outside counsel/attorneys that may be required to represent the city in a variety of matters. • The selected attorney should be familiar with litigation procedures, land use law, real estate law, personnel and labor law, regulatory and election law, and expertise as it relates to city financial activities such as borrowing, bonds, etc., and other areas as needed. • In his or her role of advice and consultation to the Mayor and the Commissioners, the City Solicitor will regularly prepare for and participate in all City Commission 1 7

Page 8

Item 7. meetings and workshops. This will include prior review and comment on all legal and legislative matters to come before the Commission, including drafting resolutions, motions, ordinances, and other documents for further action, as well as assisting with reviewing the agenda prior to being published. The Board of Commissioners typically meets monthly in a workshop meeting on the second Monday preceding the regular meeting and the third Friday of each month in a regular meeting. Special meetings are scheduled as needed. Attendance may be required at all meetings of the Board of Commissioners. • The City Solicitor will also advise the City Manager regularly and continuously on all relevant matters pertaining to City activities. This includes but is not limited to the review of all contracts, all regulatory activities, code interpretation, all leases, and other ongoing matters. • Upon approval of the City Manager or Mayor, the Directors and Department heads of the City, such as the Planning and Community Development Director, Chief of Police, and others, may seek direct advice from the City Solicitor. • The City Solicitor is expected to consult regularly with the Building and Licensing Department on matters related to code interpretation and issuance of permits and represent the Building Inspector before the City’s Board of Adjustment, Parks and Shade Tree Commission, and Planning Commission when deemed appropriate. For matters requiring the City Solicitor’s involvement, the Board of Adjustment usually meets the fourth Monday of each month, the Parks and Shade Tree Commission usually meets the fourth Monday of each month as needed, and the Planning Commission usually meets the second Friday of each month. As stated above, the Planning Commission and the Board of Adjustment each have their own independent counsel. • The City Solicitor should have adequate familiarity with many of the types of matters in the City Charter ( https://ecode360.com/12119262 ) and City Code ( https://ecode360.com/RE0659 ), as well as matters addressed in the Delaware Code including those applicable to municipalities (e.g., Title 22 of the Delaware Code, https://delcode.delaware.gov/title22/index.html ). For example, such matters may involve public infrastructure and property, city services, licensing, zoning, planning and development, personnel and employment, municipal borrowing, public records, election law, ethical standards, and litigation. It is preferable, but not required, that the selected candidate be familiar with and/or have expertise in all of these matters. • The City Solicitor should have some direct litigation experience and/or should have worked in coordination with litigators on some litigation, whether that is court and/or administrative agency litigation. In the past, when there has been court litigation involving the City, in some instances, the City Solicitor has represented the City (solely or as co-counsel), but in some instances, the City has retained separate litigation counsel. Where the Planning Commission or the Board of Adjustment is a named party to any court litigation, their own respective counsel may be involved in such litigation, and the City Solicitor may or may not be involved. An otherwise strong candidate with an absence of direct litigation experience will not be excluded from consideration. 2 8

A Public Hearing was conducted on December 16, 2024 where no members of the public spoke, and no written comments were received regarding the Alley Abandonment Request. The Planning Commission’s motion to recommend approval of the proposed Alley Abandonment Request for the Part of the Alley Between S. Governors Avenue and S. Bradford Street (extending 132 feet north of Minor Street Alley) resulted in a 6-0 vote in favor (three members absent). (Draft Meeting Minutes attached.) REQUEST: MI-24-10 Request for Alley Abandonment: Part of Alley Between S. Governors Avenue and S. Bradford Street This Request for Alley Abandonment was referred to the Planning Commission as per the Dover Code of Ordinances. The Planning Commission is required to provide a Recommendation to the City Council Utility Committee. The following document and attachments are provided as the Review Report and Planning Commission Recommendation. I. REQUEST SUMMARY Alley Abandonment Request: The Downtown Dover Partnership has requested that the City abandon portions of the Alley between S. Governors Avenue and S. Bradford Street, Dover DE. This request is being made as part of the project proposal for the redevelopment of a series of six parcels to the north of the Minor Street Alley for the Dover Mobility Center Garage (Parking Garage). This Request focuses on the process for Alley Abandonment only as the redevelopment project will be subject to separate Site Development Plan applications and reviews. Existing Area: The subject area consists of a public alley, owned and maintained by the City of Dover. Recent property surveys have shown this Alley to be located within right-of-way and also traversing portions of several of the adjacent parcels. The Alley requested for abandonment is adjacent on both sides to properties held in the ownership of multiple properties. See Table below and attached Plan submission diagrams: Address Tax Parcel Number Current Property Owner 133 S. Governors Avenue Downtown ED-05-077.09-02-10.00- Dover Dover Downtown Dover Development 000 Corporation (Downtown Dover Partnership) 139 S.

Bradford Street ED-05-077.00-02-27.00- CEI Properties, LLC 000 It is noted that under separate proceedings the City Manager’s Office has presented to Dover City Council a proposal for the transfer of City owned property to the Downtown Dover Partnership entity for this redevelopment project. The redevelopment project known as the Dover Mobility Center (Parking) Garage is identified as a priority project in the Transforming Downtown Dover: Capital City 2030 Plan. II. RECOMMENDATION OF THE PLANNING STAFF: The Planning Staff notes the redevelopment efforts associated with the Transforming Downtown Dover: Capital City 2030 Plan which focuses on efforts to revitalize and redevelop Downtown Dover. To the extent that long-term abandonment of the subject Alley area will help accomplish this objective, staff supports the conceptual request. Staff believes that the requested Alley Abandonment should be conditioned on abandonment coinciding with appropriate planning for the relocation of any utility infrastructure in the Alley as associated with future site development plans. III. PLANNING COMMISSION REVIEW FOR RECOMMENDATION The Request for Alley Abandonment is to be considered by the Planning Commission. The Planning Commission as part of their public hearing and review process will provide a recommendation on the Alley Abandonment to the Utility Committee (a City Council Committee of the Whole Subcommittee). RECOMMENDATION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION: At the Hybrid (In-Person and Virtual) Planning Commission Meeting of December 16, 2024, the Request for Alley Abandonment MI-24-10 was represented by Mike Riemann of Becker Morgan Group on behalf of the Requestor; Diane Laird of the Downtown Dover Partnership; and JD Bartlett of EDiS Company. During the Public Hearing, no members of the public spoke, and no written comments were received regarding the Alley Abandonment Request. The Planning Commission’s motion was to recommend approval of the proposed Alley Abandonment Request for the Part of the Alley Between S. Governors Avenue and S. Bradford Street (extending 132 feet north of Minor Street Alley) and resulted in a vote of 6-0 in favor of rezoning (three members absent) with the condition that the Alley Abandonment would be effective once the integration is accomplished by deed into one entity. The reasons cited for the recommendation of approval include the applicant’s presentation and discussion at the meeting and with reference to the Planning Staff’s Recommendation in the Development Advisory Committee Report. See also the included excerpt of the DRAFT Meeting Minutes of the December 16, 2024 Planning Commission meeting. The comments received from the other member agencies of the Development Advisory Committee (D.A.C.) are also provided. 16

Item 1. MI-24-10 Request for Alley Abandonment: Part of Alley Between S. Governors Avenue and S. Bradford Street Planning Commission Recommendation Report of December 16, 2024 Page 4 IV. ADVISORY COMMENTS TO THE APPLICANT: 1. The Planning Commission’s role is to make a recommendation to the City Council on the matter. City Council has ultimate authority on the request for abandonment. 2. Staff notes that abandonment of the public alley will require relocations or easements for existing utilities in the area. If the request for abandonment is successful additional coordination with various City Departments will be necessary to address utility infrastructure access, the need to maintain emergency access, and the development (and approval) of a Record Plan documenting a transfer of ownership and any associated infrastructure easements. 3. Abandonment of public alleys does not constitute approval for physical alteration of such alleys. Any modification or ground-disturbing activity must be reviewed through the appropriate site plan process and receive all requisite approvals by regulatory agencies.

Item 1. November 13, 2024 Ms. Andria L. Bennett City Clerk City of Dover 15 East Loockerman Street, City Hall Dover, Delaware 19901 RE: Alley Abandonment Request DOVER MOBILITY CENTER GARAGE Dover, Delaware 2024314.00 Dear Ms. Bennett: On behalf of our client, Downtown Dover Partnership, please accept this letter as a formal request for the City of Dover to begin the process to abandon the alley within the existing City of Dover parking lot located between Governors Ave and Bradford Street. The alley runs to the north from Minor Street through the parking lot to the southern boundary of Robbins Hose Company No. 1 of Dover’s property. We are seeking to vacate the portion of the alley that runs through the project’s boundaries. The areas included in this request are depicted on the following enclosures to this application: 1. An aerial map, entitled “Alley Abandonment – Aerial Exhibit, Dover Mobility Center Garage”. This map identifies the section of the alley being requested to be vacated and the adjacent property owners, and roads over the current aerial photography. 2. A smaller scaled drawing exhibit entitled “Alley Abandonment Exhibit, Dover Mobility Center Garage”. This exhibit identifies the section of the portion of the alley requested to be vacated as well as the tax parcels involved, parcel owners and topography. 3. A legal description of the portion of the alley included in this request. This request is being made to allow for the consolidation of the six (6) parcels involved in the project into one parcel, as well as the construction of the garage facility, as the garage will span from Governors Ave. to Bradford Street. Additionally, a parcel consolidation plan showing the consolidation of all six (6) parcels and the alley into one parcel will be prepared and submitted to the City’s Planning Department with the site development plans. The portion of the alley included in this request is exclusively within the project’s property boundaries and several of the properties extend to the centerline of the alley currently. Under Section 27 of the Dover Charter, it allows the City Council to authorize the solicitation of bids for the sale of the land or street being vacated or abandoned. The portion of the alley proposed for abandonment is located entirely within the project’s outer property boundaries and given that The Downtown Dover Development Corp. is the owner of the six (6) parcels that make up the project boundary, we request that Council not offer them for public or private sale and that it be allowed to be consolidated in the overall parcel for the project. Based on previous discussions, it is our understanding that the abandonment procedure begins with a formal request to your office. From there the request is added to the Development 19

Item 1. Advisory Committee and Planning Commission agendas. After being discussed at the Planning Commission, their recommendation will be forwarded to the Utility Committee and then Council for discussion. If the Council feels the abandonment request is appropriate, it can then be scheduled for a public hearing for the next Council meeting. The Council will then make a decision on the abandonment after the public hearing. Please include this request on the Development Advisory Committee agenda and Planning Commission agenda for December 16, 2024 and feel free to contact us with any questions or concerns with this request.

Item 1. CITY OF DOVER PLANNING COMMISSION December 16, 2024 Excerpt from Meeting Minutes – Draft The Meeting of the City of Dover Planning Commission was held on Monday, December 16, 2024, at 7:00 PM as an In-Person Meeting and also using the phone/videoconferencing system Webex. The Meeting Session was conducted with Chair Mr. Witham presiding. Members present were Mr. Michael Lewis, Mrs. Denney, Mrs. Maucher, Mr. Baldwin, Mrs. Welsh, and Mr. Witham. Mr. Roach, Dr. Jones, and Mr. Reaves were absent. Staff members present were Mrs. Dawn Melson-Williams, Ms. Sharon Duca, Mrs. Kristen Mullaney, and Mr. Jason Lyon (virtual). NEW APPLICATIONS MI-24-10 Request for Alley Abandonment: Part of Alley Between S. Governors Avenue and S. Bradford Street – Public Hearing and Review for Recommendation to City Council on a Request for Abandonment of a portion of the improved alley, located between South Governors Avenue and South Bradford Street and extending approximately 132 feet north of the Minor Street Alley, consisting of 1,550 square feet in area. The portion of the alley to be abandoned is adjacent to the properties located at 133 S. Governors Avenue, 139 S. Governors Avenue, 145 S. Governors Avenue, 136 S. Bradford Street, 148 S. Bradford Street, and 150 S. Bradford Street, Dover DE. Representatives: Mr. Mike Riemann, Becker Morgan Group; Ms. Diane Laird, Downtown Dover Partnership; Mr. JD Bartlett, EDiS Company Mrs. Melson-Williams stated that this is a Request of Alley Abandonment. It’s not your typical application to the Planning Commission; however, you are called upon to participate in the process for consideration of Alley Abandonments. You can see in the image on the screen; we are located between S. Bradford Street and S. Governors Avenue to the north of Loockerman Street and to the north of the Minor Street Alley. We are talking about an area that springs north from the Minor Street Alley. On the image on the screen, it is a shaded hatched area that shows. There are a series of six parcels that are either adjacent to or the alley actually crosses the property itself. They have done some of the deed research and some of the alley portions here are located specifically in the right-of-way but in other instances, it traverses parts of the adjacent parcels. She will list those adjacent parcels that are adjacent to this alley segment. They are specifically moving from left to right and top to bottom. 133 S. Governors Avenue referenced as owned by the Downtown Dover Development Corporation and we now know that as the Downtown Dover Partnership. The property at 139 S. Governors Avenue, again, referenced with the Downtown Dover Development Corporation and the Dover Parking Authority now recognized as the Downtown Dover Partnership. The property at 145 S. Governors Avenue is actually owned by the City of Dover. Moving over to the eastern side, again, from the top to the bottom. The property at 136 S. Bradford Street is owned by the City of Dover. The property at 148 S. Bradford Street is now owned by the Capital City Transformation Alliance Inc. and then the property at 150 S. Bradford Street is currently or soon to be formally owned by CEI Properties LLC. The applicants making the request collectively were the Downtown Dover Partnership. The Request for Alley Abandonment moves through the review process with the Development Advisory Committee for some initial comments and review.

Item 1. Commission takes a look at the Alley Abandonment Request and provides a Recommendation. That Recommendation will be forwarded to City Council and its appropriate City Council Committees who will have their own consideration of this Request moving into the new year. The Alley Abandonment is brought forth because these properties are to be involved in a project known as the Dover Mobility Center Garage. It is a parking garage project which will eventually come before this body but right now we are just dealing with the Alley Abandonment. The image on the screen shows that for the most part, we’ve got a series of parcels that are functioning as surface parking lot areas. There are two properties that currently have buildings but their demolitions were authorized by other Applications already considered. The Alley Abandonment, again, is located in the middle and as noted, some of it is right of way and some of it just crosses some of the properties including some that are City owned. It is also noted that a couple of these properties, as she mentioned, are owned by the City of Dover. The City Manager’s Office under separate proceedings has been working with City Council to transfer some of this land ownership in the City of Dover to the Downtown Dover Partnership and associated entities for this redevelopment project. So, you are not really considering that issue at the moment but the alley is a separate matter per our Charter and Code. This redevelopment project is identified as a priority project in the Transforming Downtown Dover: Capital City 2030 Plan. The Planning Staff is recommending that the Alley Abandonment happen because it is part of those longer- term efforts to revitalize Downtown Dover. They do note and recognize that appropriate planning is going to have to occur related to utility infrastructure that may be located in this alley segment here. There actually is a fairly substantial water line that they have already been in discussion with the City’s Department of Water/Wastewater in regards to. Tonight, the Planning Commission is charged with conducting your own public hearing and making a recommendation on this Alley Abandonment Request which will then be forwarded to the Utility Committee and City Council. Mr. Witham stated that the assumption that he has here and the assumption that he thinks that they need to understand is that there are six different addresses and six different tax parcel numbers some of which are owned by different entities other than the Downtown Dover Partnership. The assumption that he has here is that all of these entities have an agreement to the development of these six parcels. Responding to Mr. Witham, Mrs. Melson-Williams stated that the short answer to that is yes, there is a collective effort. Even as part of this request for Alley Abandonment, the City Clerk’s Office was required to reach out to each of those involved parcel owners to gage their participation in this Alley Abandonment process. The short answer is, she believes that all of the property owners are well aware of this request that is being made this evening. Mr. Witham stated that some of these parcels were subject by this Commission for a Request for Demolition which was considered earlier. Responding to Mr. Witham, Mrs. Melson-Williams stated yes, there are two properties. Mr. Riemann stated that Mrs. Melson-Williams has done an excellent job of summarizing the Application. He asked Mrs. Melson-Williams to zoom in on the easement itself so you can get a little better of a look about what’s actually on the ground versus the black and white. The area in question is this hatched area in the middle that’s got this yellow cross hatch. It’s actually in an easement; so, it’s not a separate deeded right of way. It is actually an easement of about 1,500 SF that is on the six parcels in question that were referenced. The Downtown Dover Partnership either owns, has already acquired, or is contracted to purchase all of the parcels in question. They Excerpt of Planning Commission Meeting Minutes of December 16, 2024 Page 2 of 4 31

Item 1. have settled on one of the parcels there and are going to settlement on Wednesday on the last parcel. They will own and have them under their control, all of these particular properties. The alley, at this point, really is no longer needed. It doesn’t really serve a purpose with the parking lot in its current configuration. It certainly would impact the future Mobility Hub that is planned to go there that will come before this Commission soon in another Site Plan Application. This was really the first step to get through that process that needed to be accomplished first; so, we are going through this process now. As part of any application, this was sent to all of the same agencies as part of the Development Advisory Committee. They received no objections from all of the other agencies. They were all supportive of this Request as has been the Staff. The only item of mention that Mrs. Melson-Williams mentioned was a water line that exists. They have already met with Public Works on that and there will be a plan to relocate that waterline outside of that which would happen as part of that Mobility hub project anyway. So that is not an issue and will be solved as part of this project. We are asking for the Commission’s support. Mrs. Denney stated that when she is looking at the parking and realizing that the intent is for a parking garage building for which she is certain there should be a charge because she understands that it might be Colonial and they would certainly charge. She actually volunteered for many years at Catholic Charities that used to be in one of the buildings on Loockerman Street. They utilized the parking behind it as did employees from the accountant and the bridal shop. She can’t remember what all was down there, but they had access to free parking. It is especially important in Catholic Charities because people are volunteering their time and the majority of clients that come in there really can’t afford to park. But at any rate, that said, at this point in this design there will be no free parking because Loockerman Street is not going to have parking on the street. So, there will be no free available parking for somebody who just wants to go and do something with their EZ Pass. Does everybody have to park in the garage and pay? Responding to Mrs. Denney, Mr. Riemann stated that the Application that is before us tonight is not the parking garage. It is the Alley Abandonment and so he thinks that would be more appropriately addressed at the time that we come before you with the parking garage application. Mrs. Denney stated that the Alley Abandonment is a step towards a final result which would include elimination of the free parking as her understanding. Responding to Mrs. Denney, Mr. Riemann stated that he is honestly not prepared to answer that particular question this evening. The Alley that is in question that they are proposing to abandon is no longer needed given the configuration of the parcels and the ownership of the parcels being a singular owner at this time. There is access to the parcels currently from both sides, S. Governors Avenue and Bradford Street; so, the Alley itself is no longer needed. There is no purpose for the Alley any further. Mrs. Maucher stated that she used to work on State Street. Does this Alley continue further north? Responding to Mrs. Maucher, Mr. Riemann stated it does but it terminates at the fire station. It doesn’t go all the way out. Mrs. Maucher stated that the elimination of that section of the Alley is going to have limited impact on properties. She used to work on State Street and utilized the alley to get to the parking behind her building on State Street. With that elimination, are there properties that would be affected to the north? Responding to Mrs. Maucher, Mr. Riemann stated no, there really wouldn’t be. They are only eliminating the portion from Minor Street up. The Alley does continue behind Harry Louie’s, but it terminates at the fire station. Excerpt of Planning Commission Meeting Minutes of December 16, 2024 Page 3 of 4 32

Item 1. Mrs. Melson-Williams stated that if we scan back out on the plan shown on the screen. Mrs. Maucher asked if the Alley came out to Reed Street. Responding to Mrs. Maucher, Mrs. Melson-Williams stated that the Alley does not. You would run into the back side of the Fire Department’s building before that would happen; it kind of melds into those adjacent parking lot areas to the north at the top of the page. Mr. Witham stated that he thinks it is safe to say that once all of the parcels are owned by one entity, not only will the Alley not exist on paper, it will not physically exist because it will be gone. Responding to Mr. Witham, Mr. Riemann stated correct and all of the parcels would be combined into one. Mr. Witham further stated that there would be no need of an alley, period. Responding to Mr. Witham, Mr. Riemann stated correct. Mr. Witham opened a public hearing and after seeing no one wishing to speak, closed the public hearing. Mrs. Maucher moved to recommend approval to City Council for MI-24-10 Request for Alley Abandonment: Part of Alley Between S. Governors Avenue and S. Bradford Street. With the upcoming project, it’s pretty much necessary. Mr. Witham asked if Mrs. Maucher would entertain an amendment to note that the Planning Commission recommends that once the full integration of the alley is accomplished by deed into one entity the Abandonment would be affective. As of right now, they are still in the process of combining those lots so there could be a limited need for the alleyway until they are all combined. Responding to Mr. Witham, Mrs. Maucher stated understood but it’s a joint application of the individual property owners and they are jointly requesting Abandonment of their Alley. Mr. Witham stated that it’s a joint request in the sense that all of the individual property owners are a part of the Downtown Dover Partnership but that would be a legal document which is not before us. Responding to Mr. Witham, Mrs. Maucher stated the Amendment to the motion is accepted. Mrs. Maucher moved to recommend approval to City Council for MI-24-10 Request for Alley Abandonment: Part of Alley Between S. Governors Avenue and S. Bradford Street. With the upcoming project, it’s pretty much necessary. Once the full integration of the alley is accomplished by deed into one entity, the Abandonment would be effective, seconded by Mrs. Welsh and the motion was carried 6-0 by roll call vote with Mr. Roach, Dr. Jones and Mr. Reaves absent. Mrs. Maucher voting yes; based on Staff recommendation and reasons stated in the motion. Mr. Baldwin voting yes; based on Staff recommendation. Mrs. Welsh voting yes; for reasons previously stated. Mr. Lewis voting yes; for reasons previously stated. Mrs. Denney voting yes. Mr. Witham voting yes; based on Staff recommendation and the documents submitted to the Planning Commission and based upon the oral discussion before the Commission today.

Item 2. CITY OF DOVER, DELAWARE ACTION FORM PROCEEDING: Council Committee of the Whole (Utility) DEPARTMENT OF ORIGIN: Water & Wastewater SUBMITTED ON: January 3, 2025 PREPARED BY: Jason A. Lyon, P.E., Director of Water & Wastewater / Engineering Services REVIEWED BY: David S. Hugg, III City Manager and Patricia M. Marney, Controller / Treasurer SUBJECT: Meeting House Branch Drainage Improvement Project Update TIMETABLE: Staff will proceed with project after direction is provided by City Council RELATED PROJECT: X REFERENCE: X EXPENDITURE REQUIRED: n/a AMOUNT BUDGETED: n/a FUNDING SOURCE (Dept./Page in CIP & Budget): n/a STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Committee provide a recommended direction, based upon the two (2) options provided by staff, to City Council for acceptance and implementation. BACKGROUND AND ANALYSIS: This capital investment project involves the improvement of a stormwater basin known as Meeting House Branch. The scope of the project runs from S. Governors Avenue to St. Jones River. This area is prone to flooding. Additionally, the eastern end of the project is subject to an Environmental Improvement Project (EIP) with Delaware Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Control (DNREC). Recently, the City of Dover canceled the collection of the stormwater utility. This utility was to be a revenue source to help pay for the above referenced improvements. Staff is requesting direction from this committee (and eventually City Council) on the path that we should take with this project. Essentially, we have two (2) options; 1-proceed with the intended design – which would require a funding source such as a tax increase or a modified stormwater utility fund or 2-reduce the scope of the project to meet the minimum requirements of the EIP. 34

Item 2. Meeting House Branch Drainage Improvement Project Update Council Committee of the Whole – Utility Committee January 14, 2025 35

Page 36

Item 2. Project Goals / Requirements • We are required to perform an Environmental Improvement Project (EIP) at the site, due to an agreement with DNREC. • At a minimum, meadow on the site with a riparian buffer. • Goal is to improve the drainage from the St. Jones River towards State Street, through the Bayhealth Parking Lot and connect into S. Governors Avenue. • Potentially develop site for future development 36 for community.

Page 37

Item 2. Current Status • Design for the drainage improvement project is approximately 70% complete. • Feasibility Study for site remediation is on hold until the drainage project design is complete. • Redesign of area in Bayhealth parking lot is forthcoming. • Need to work with DNREC and the Army Corps of Engineers to determine if any wetland areas are directly connected to the St. Jones River. • This work would require a change order to the original engineering design contract of approximately $15,000. 37

Page 38

Item 2. Funding Obstacles • The project has obtained $8.3M of Bond Bill money to improve the drainage issues on the site. This money cannot be used for the EIP. • Staff has budgeted $6.1M to assist with both the EIP and the Drainage Improvement aspects of the project. • This funding was originally to be collected through the Stormwater Utility Fund. 38

Page 39

Item 2. Direction • The City must make a decision on whether we continue with the whole project or focus on the remediation project only. • Looking at the stormwater utility model in terms of capital improvement projects only, removing the Meeting House Branch project could reduce the Equivalent Runoff Unit from $6.00 to $4.00. • If the $6.1M of city funds required for the project were paid for out of the tax base, we would have to increase taxes by $0.05/$100 assessed value over the period. In addition, the project would need to be postponed, which would likely result in increased costs, as taxes are to be revenue neutral during a reassessment. • Other considerations: • We have entered into an agreement with Bayhealth to fund portions of this drainage design. • If we do not increase the drainage capacity of this area, 39 redevelopment will be difficult.

Item 2. Council Decision • City Staff would like a direction from City Council based upon two (2) options: 1) Move forward with the total design which would require a sustainable revenue source (either tax increase or modified stormwater utility proposal). 2) Truncate the design to meet the minimum requirements of the EIP, which may cost around $3M. 42

Remainder of costs to be supplemented by the surplus of funds from CIP Project #WW2401, Inflow / Infiltration Removal, Account No.: 403-41-69-99-000- 54031 STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Award contract to Century Engineering for the White Oak Pump Station Grit Removal System Engineering Support, RFP #25-0013WW, for the amount of $65,620. BACKGROUND AND ANALYSIS: This capital investments calls for an upgrade to the existing White Oak Road Pump Station. The grit that is being deposited into the station is causing operational issues. This project would install an automated grit removal system. The pump station is currently located on the east side of Nimitz Road, within the White Oak Farms development. This upgrade will improve the City’s wastewater system by increasing the efficiency of the pump station. 43
