UTILITY COMMITTEE REPORT
The Utility Committee met on June 11, 1991 with Chairman VanSant presiding.
Mr. VanSant moved for consent of the committee's actions on the following items, seconded by Mr. Lynn and unanimously carried:
Request for Waiver from Subdivision Regulations - K.C. Sheth
Tabled action on the request pending review and recommendations from the DAC and Robbins Hose Company.
Annexation Request for Parcels on S. Governors Avenue and Webbs Lane, Owned by Wendy's Restaurant
Tabled action by request of attorney representing applicant.
Request for Annexation - RBJ Partnership (Dunkin Donut Shop) - Forest Street
The committee considered a request for annexation of property located on the south side of Route #8, approximately 275 +/- feet east of Independence Boulevard, owned by RBJ Partnership. The property is currently under development for a Dunkin Donut Shop.
In accordance with the City's Comprehensive Plan, if annexed the property would be given a zoning classification of Medium Density Residential (RG-2 - General Residence). This classification would make the commercial use legal non-conforming and limits any expansion of the use to its current facility. Upon completion of the Route #8 Corridor Study, alternative land use classifications may be possible with adherence to some fundamental principles of site development.
The committee recommended that an annexation referendum be held for the property, stipulating that the condition of annexation meets all the existing commercial use conditions for the establishment and the proposed requirements for the Route #8 Corridor Study.
Mr. VanSant moved for approval of the committee's recommendation. The motion was seconded by Mr. Salters and by a roll call vote six (6) yes, two (2) no (Mr. Lynn and Mr. Christiansen) with Mr. Daisey absent, Council adopted the following resolution:
A RESOLUTION PROPOSING THE INCLUSION OF AN AREA WITHIN THE LIMITS OF THE CITY OF DOVER AND CALLING FOR A SPECIAL ELECTION TO BE HELD IN THE SAID AREA.
WHEREAS, the Charter of the City of Dover authorizes Council to extend the boundaries of the said City after a special election of the qualified voters and real estate owners of the territory proposed to be annexed, and
WHEREAS, the Mayor and Council of the City of Dover deem it in the best interest of the City of Dover to include an area contiguous to the present City limits, and hereinafter more particularly described within the limits of the City of Dover, within a zoning classification of RG-2 as recommended by the City of Dover Planning Commission.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE MAYOR AND COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF DOVER, IN COUNCIL MET:
1. That a special election be held for the following described area situated in East Dover Hundred, Kent County, State of Delaware, and more particularly described and bounded herein:
All that certain lot, piece or parcel of land being Lots 48, 49, and 30 of Country Club Estates, said Country Club Estates being recorded in the Kent County Recorder of Deeds Office in Miscellaneous Plat Book B, page 37, said lands consisting of 44,000 square feet.
2. That the election be held on the 29th day of July, 1991 commencing at the hours of 11:00 a.m. in the City Hall Annex, The Plaza, Dover, Delaware, for the purpose of submitting the question of annexation of the above area to those persons entitled to vote thereon.
3. That the election be held and conducted pursuant to the provisions of the Charter of the City of Dover as amended.
4. That this resolution be published in at least two issues of a newspaper published in the City of Dover at least two weeks prior to the day of this election.
ADOPTED: June 24, 1991
Acceptance of Streets and Utilities - Mallard Pond
During the Regular Council Meeting of May 13, 1991, the dedication of streets and utilities of Mallard Pond was referred to the Utility Committee due to concerns of damage to curbs.
Staff investigated the concerns and reported that the damages pose no structural problem to the curb. A one-year maintenance bond has been submitted. Prior to releasing the bond, at approximately ten months, an additional inspection is completed. Any deficiencies found at that time must be corrected before the bond is released.
Staff reported that a 150% Letter of Credit has been submitted to cover the cost of the sidewalk which is not yet completed. Sidewalks are usually not constructed on lots until after the houses are built, due to construction traffic damaging the sidewalk. A Certificate of Occupancy is not issued for a house until the sidewalk is installed. The committee recommended acceptance of streets and utilities for Mallard Pond.
Mr. VanSant moved for approval of the committee's recommendation, seconded by Mr. Salters and carried by a roll call vote of seven (7) yes, one (1) no (Mr. Christiansen) with Mr. Daisey absent.
Bid - Relocation of Electric Lines - N. Little Creek Road - By-Pass Project
The State of Delaware Department of Transportation authorized Dover to contract work on State Contract #89-110-02. Bids were requested for the relocation of the existing 69kV and 12kV electric lines. This will include all poles and equipment, adjustment of service lines and part to be converted to underground. Materials would be furnished by the City, including two 90' wood poles. Although the City furnishes the materials, the entire project will be reimbursed by the State of Delaware. The engineer's estimate was $33,722.50. The committee recommended awarding the bid to the low bidder, A.J. Fry in the amount of $29,600.
The committee recommended that staff be authorized to issue a purchase order to A.J. Fry Electric for the sum of $29,600.
Mr. VanSant moved for approval of the committee's recommendation, seconded by Mr. Salters and carried by a unanimous roll call vote (Mr. Daisey absent).
Bid - Protective Coating Material - Combustion Turbine
The planning/design of the Parkland Generating Station requires that protective coatings be applied to the Combustion Turbine and all associated equipment not presently protected. All piping, electrical boxes/conduits/etc. are to be coated as per OSHA color coding. Design and specifications for this portion of the project will be the responsibility of Stone & Webster Engineering Corporation and City staff. The engineer's estimate was $25,000. The low bid was received from N.D. Maccari in the amount of $11,500.
Since bids were received from two different "Maccari" firms, staff expressed some confusion over which of the two firms had received positive references from DP&L for similar work performed. Staff recommended that the committee defer action until the June 24th Council Meeting to allow time to obtain additional information.
Mr. Worley relayed that it has been confirmed that N.D. Maccari is a reputable contractor and is capable of performing the work. Since this firm submitted the low bid, staff recommends that the bid be awarded to N.D. Maccari.
Mr. VanSant moved that the bid for protective coating material for the combustion turbine be awarded to N.D. Maccari in the amount of $11,500. The motion was seconded by Mr. Weyandt and carried by a unanimous roll call vote (Mr. Daisey absent).
Bid - 1991/92 Fuel Oil Supply for McKee Run
Bids were solicited for the 1991-92 fuel oil supply for McKee Run and were received from Amerada Hess Oil Company and Apex Oil Company. Staff reported that Apex Oil Company did not bid in accordance with all the specifications contained in the invitation. The committee recommended that the bid be awarded to Amerada Hess at a cost FOB Dover, as follows:
Per Barrel - $13.50
Per Gallon - $ 0.32143
1,000,000/BTUs- $ 2.10633
Mr. VanSant moved for approval of the committee's recommendation, seconded by Mr. Pitts and carried by a unanimous roll call vote (Mr. Daisey absent).
Woodbrook Pond Project
For the past several years, residents of the Woodbrook Subdivision have complained about the deteriorated state of Woodbrook Pond. Over the years, the pond has silted in, allowing aquatic vegetation to develop, which hinders the capability of water to flow through the pond. Much of the sediment is the remains of leaves and grass which have washed into the pond. Due to problems of getting equipment in and around the pond, it cannot be cleaned out.
In conjunction with the 1990-95 Capital Improvements Plan, it was proposed to clean the pond, regrade the banks and improve the flow through the pond. Once approval for the project was received from the Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Control, bids were solicited. The engineer's estimate was $14,200. One bid was received from Willow Oak, Inc., in the amount of $45,585.
Staff advised members that $12,500 was budgeted in FY 1990-91 for this project, and that an additional $10,000 was available from the White Oak Road Ditch Cleaning project, which was budgeted but completed by DelDOT, at no cost to the City. Staff relayed that other contractors indicated that they did not bid due to the size of the job, the manpower requirements, or were too busy at this time. Feeling that there is interest in the project, staff recommended re-bidding the project sometime in the fall and rebudgeting the existing funds to pay for the work.
The committee recommended that all bids be rejected and the project be re-bid sometime in the fall with the existing funds to be rebudgeted to pay for the project.
Mr. VanSant moved for approval of the committee's recommendation, seconded by Mr. Lynn and unanimously carried.
Mr. Hare voiced his hope that this project would not be delayed for too long, stating that the pond is in dire need of cleaning.
Fuel Adjustment Review
The current fuel adjustment is $0.0035 based on $18.90 per delivered barrel of oil at the McKee Run Power Plant. The present cost of oil is $11.60 per delivered barrel. If the $11.60 price continues for the rest of the year, the fuel fund will be at $3,500,000 as of December 31, 1991. The normal goal is for the fund to be at zero. Staff expects that the cost will average $16.00 per delivered barrel by the end of the year.
To avoid having a negative balance in the fuel fund requiring loans from other funds, discussions occurred this past fall with Council about setting a minimum balance to remain in the fund. Staff felt that the fund should carry a $1 million minimum balance as of December 31 each year with all interest earnings to remain in the fund. If during the year, the electric fuel adjustment rate projection was too low, there would be a $1 million cushion in the fund to avoid running a negative balance.
The committee recommended that the fuel adjustment rate be set at zero ($0.00) effective July 1, 1991. The committee also recommended the establishment of a $1 million minimum balance in the fuel adjustment fund as recommended by staff.
Mr. VanSant moved that the fuel adjustment rate be set at zero ($0.00), effective with billings beginning July 1, 1991. The motion was seconded by Mr. Lynn and carried by a unanimous roll call vote (Mr. Daisey absent).
Mr. VanSant moved that the City maintain a minimum balance of $1 million in the fuel adjustment fund to avoid sudden fluctuations and to provide some stability and cushion in the fund. The motion was seconded by Mr. Weyandt and carried by a unanimous roll call vote (Mr. Daisey absent).
Mr. VanSant moved for acceptance of the Utility Committee Report, seconded by Mr. Weyandt and unanimously carried.

REAPPOINTMENTS - BOARD OF ADJUSTMENTS
Mayor Richter requested the reappointment of Fred B. Carey, Jr. and Karl Dorzback to the Board of Adjustments. They will serve three year terms, to expire in July 1994.
Mr. Lynn moved for the reappointment of Mr. Fred B. Carey, Jr. to the Board of Adjustments for a three year term, to expire in July 1994. The motion was seconded by Mr. Hare and unanimously carried.
Mr. VanSant moved for the reappointment of Mr. Karl Dorzback to the Board of Adjustments for a three year term, to expire in July 1994. The motion was seconded by Mr. Lynn and unanimously carried.
