PARKS, PLAYGROUNDS & TREES COMMITTEE REPORT

The Parks, Playgrounds and Trees Committee met on April 3, 1979 at 7:30 p.m. with Chairman Hardcastle presiding.

Sailboat Rental - Silver Lake

Mr. Shea and Mr. Mooney were present at the committee meeting requesting consideration of authorization to rent sailboats from their canoe rental concession. They added that a licensed instructor of sailboat operations will be present for proper instructions. He assured the committee that a $300,000 liability policy is in effect with the City being listed as co-defendant.

It was the committee’s recommendation that the request be granted provided that all insurance and licensing requirements are met.

Mr. Witt moved for the recommendation of the Committee, seconded by Mr. Bewick and unanimously carried.

Mr. Witt moved for approval of the committee report as submitted, seconded by Mr. Bewick and unanimously carried.

SAFETY ADVISORY COMMITTEE REPORT

The Safety Advisory Committee met on April 3, 1979 at 7:30 p.m. with Chairman Hardcastle presiding.

Substitution of Yield Signs to Replace Stop Signs - Woodcrest

Stemming from a request by Councilman McDonough, Chief Klenoski conducted a study on the possibility of replacing stop signs with yield signs in the Woodcrest development. Due to heavy student traffic during the school year and a day care center in the area which creates heavy morning and evening traffic and heavy foot traffic from the Fairview Elementary School, it was Chief Klenoski’s recommendation that no change be made in the traffic control signs that are presently utilized.

It was the committee’s recommendation to retain stop signs in the Woodcrest development as presently posted.

Mr. Bewick moved for the recommendation of the committee, seconded by Mr. Witt.

It was Mr. McDonough’s opinion that there are stop signs in other developments where little traffic exists and no obstructions that could be changed to yield signs without any particular hazard. He requested that the Safety Advisory Committee conduct a study of developments based on recommendations by Chief Klenoski for a report to Council at a later date.

Mr. Bewick’s motion to accept the recommendation of the committee, was unanimously carried.

Stop Sign - Bradford Street & Wyoming Avenue - Southeast Corner

Due to the heavy traffic that will be generated from the new professional building being built by the Kenbrit Corporation on Bradford Street, it was the committee’s recommendation that an ordinance be drawn for the posting of a stop sign on the southeast corner.

Mr. Witt moved for the recommendation of the committee, seconded by Mr. Bewick and unanimously carried.

Mr. McDonough moved that an ordinance be drawn to initiate the placement of the stop sign and that a public hearing be held on May 1, 1979 at 8:00 p.m. The motion was seconded by Mr. Witt and unanimously carried.

RECESS

At this point, Vice-Mayor Muir requested a ten minute recess.

LEGISLATIVE AND FINANCE COMMITTEE REPORT

The Legislative and Finance Committee met on April 18, 1979 at 5:00 p.m. with Chairman Muir presiding.

Adult Book Store and Obscenity Ordinance

Mrs. Wheeler of the State Commission was present and introduced by Vice-Mayor Muir.

The committee discussed the obvious need for an ordinance that would control adult book stores and recommended that adoption of the Nimlo Model Obscenity Ordinance with adaptation for local use by the City Solicitor.

Mr. McDonough moved for the recommendation of the committee, seconded by Mr. Weyandt and unanimously carried.

Questioned by Mr. McDonough, Mr. Rodriguez stated that he would require at least a month for investigative study. He added that the state has a comprehensive ordinance recently revised that imposes penalties that the City cannot enforce. Before adoption an ordinance, it was his desire to consult with Chief Klenoski to discuss prohibitions of the state ordinance to prevent pre-emption with state law.

Mr. McDonough moved that a public hearing be set for the Council Meeting of June 11, 1979 at 8:00 p.m. for consideration of an adult book store or obscenity ordinance. The motion was seconded by Mr. Bewick and unanimously carried.

Revenue Sharing Hearing

Noting that the second hearing to adopt budgets is historically the first meeting in June, the committee recommended that the first budget hearing to incorporate individual applications for revenue sharing be held on May 21, 1979 at 5:00 p.m.

Questioned by Mr. McDonough, Mr. Muir stated that this would be a meeting including all councilmen.

Mr. Witt moved for the recommendation of the committee, seconded by Mr .Carey and carried by a vote of six (6) yes, one (1) no (Mr. McDonough).

Ordinance Amendment - Registration Closing Date

The City Clerk advised the committee of the necessity for an amendment to Section 11-5, relating to the opening and closing of registration days. The ordinance amendment would read “The registration dates are to be each and every working day from the first working day in May through the last working day in March.” The amended ordinance would conform with the 1980 Municipal Election on the third Monday of April.

It was the committee’s recommendation to hold a public hearing on May 28, 1979 at 8:00 p.m.

Mr. Witt moved for the recommendation of the committee, seconded by Mr. McDonough and unanimously carried.

Ordinance Amendment - Absentee Voting

Relating again to the election date change in 1980, the City Clerk submitted a proposed ordinance that would amend Section 10, relating to absentee voting that would change the wording to “Time limits for returning of absentee ballots - Late Ballots” that would designate July as the month to hold late ballots received after 12:00 noon the day before the election.

The committee recommended that a public hearing be set for May 28, 1979 at 8:00 p.m. to consider the amendment. Mr. Hardcastle moved for the recommendation of the committee, seconded by Mr. Witt and unanimously carried.

Proposed Notary - Office of the City Clerk/Treasurer

The committee considered a request by the City Clerk to designate Mrs. Bittner as a notary and authorization to file an application. The request was based on an inconvenience to absentee voters that requires two notarizations.

It was the recommendation of the committee that Mrs. Bittner be authorized to make application for a notary seal.

Mr. Hardcastle moved for the recommendation of the committee, seconded by Mr. Witt and unanimously carried.

City/County Joint Reassessment

The committee reviewed the pros and cons of asking the County to participate in a joint property tax re-assessment project.

Mr. McDonough stated that he had not heard the question seriously discussed by Council and felt that a general feeling of the members would be appropriate before approaching County officials.

Mr. Weyandt suggested that a letter from the City Manager to the Levy Court president might be proper for the purpose of asking their interest in a joint re-assessment.

A Council workshop with Mr. Hayes in attendance to present his views on the necessity of a reassessment was also discussed.

Mr. Hayes explained that the purpose of a reassessment is to update property appraisals for tax purposes, but not necessarily to increase taxes. He added that it is a possibility that the tax rate could be lowered after the evaluation and still realize the same revenues.

Mr. Hardcastle stated that he would hesitate to vote for approval of a reassessment and the expenditure necessary before consultation with Mr. Hayes and discussion with Council.

It was Mr. Weyandt’s opinion that Mr. Hayes could utilize building permits on new construction and other information at hand to arrive at a reasonable figure of increased assessed valuation to determine if it would be worth spending $100,000 for a reassessment evaluation.

Mr. Bewick felt that the first step would be an agreement to conduct a City/County joint reassessment.

Relating to the possibility of a unit #4 electric power generation station, Mr. Witt stated that he was not sure that the City has the required bonding capacity.

Mr. Witt moved that Mr. Mogan and Mr. Hayes plan a workshop session with the entire Council at some desirable date to present the pros and cons of a reassessment for the purpose of a Council decision based on facts derived from discussion. The motion was seconded by Mr. McDonough and unanimously carried.

Storage of Gasoline - Residential Areas

An ordinance was submitted to the committee for consideration that would limit and control the storage of gasoline in residential areas.

It was the recommendation that a public hearing be set for consideration of adopting same.

Mr. Witt moved that a public hearing be set for May 14, 1979 at 8:00 p.m. to consider the ordinance. The motion was seconded by Mr. McDonough and unanimously carried.

Inspection Cost - Downtown Project

Mr. Mogan requested that the committee reconsider their decision that no additional inspection fees be paid on the downtown project, explaining that independent inspection is a federal requirement and is billed on a day to day basis.

The committee recommended that the City Manager be granted authorization to pay downtown inspection fees.

Mr. Witt moved for the recommendation of the committee, seconded by Mr. Bewick.

Mr. Weyandt stated that he would not vote on the payment of inspection fees if it resulted in an over-run on the cost of the downtown Dover project.

Questioned by Mr. Carson, Vice-Mayor Muir stated that no additional engineering fees will be paid.

On a call for the question, the motion to authorize payment of inspection fees was unanimously carried.

Ambulance Fees

Mr. Mogan proposed that the City establish an ambulance fee of $30 for all trips within the City and $30 plus 50¢ per mile for trips beyond the limits. (Note: It is understood that mileage charges will include any distance involved in transporting a patient to a location plus the return trip to Kent General Hospital.)

In discussion, Mr. Weyandt stated that all services should be billed directly to the insurance company and all persons should be billed unless it involves a destitute citizen. If the person is not a resident then someone should pay the bill, whether is be the state or county.

Mr. McDonough stated that he still had not seen any guidelines on how the new fee schedule will be implemented.

Mr. Weyandt stated that the City Manager is presently conducting a study on the policy and usage of the City ambulance. When this study is completed, recommendations will be submitted to Council.

It was the committee’s recommendation that the new ambulance fee schedule be approved.

Mr. Bewick moved for the recommendation of the committee, seconded by Mr. Witt.

Mr. McDonough questioned Mr. Mogan on any development of administrative guidelines and policies as to who will hear the indigent clients. He asked if there would be investigative personnel in the field or would the City just accept the word of a client as to their capabilities of paying a fee.

Mr. Mogan stated that these problems will be handled through the office of the City Manager and that no massive administrative changes need be made. The billing operation is already set up. He added that any questions arising about a person’s inability to pay can be worked out in cooperation with Kent General Hospital.

By a vote of six (6) yes, one (1) no (Mr. McDonough) Council adopted the new ambulance fee schedule as proposed by the City Manager.

Mr. Witt moved that the fee schedule be implemented as of June 1, 1979, seconded by Mr. Weyandt and unanimously carried.

Charter Amendment - Date for Setting Tax Rate

Mr. Weyandt moved that the City Manager be authorized to confer with the City Solicitor and prepare an amendment to the Charter with an explanation of any changes necessary, to implement a change in the date for setting the tax rate. It was suggested that sixty (60) days be given to complete same. The motion was seconded by Mr. Bewick.

Mr. Rodriguez advised Council that substantial changes will be required in sections 47, 48 and 49, in addition to changing appeals dates and the mailing of tax bills.

The motion was carried by a unanimous vote.

By motion of Mr. Bewick, seconded by Mr. Carey, the Legislative and Finance Committee Report was unanimously accepted as submitted.

REZONING REQUEST - 575 NORTH DUPONT HIGHWAY - FLAMM REALTY

A request was received from Flamm Realty to rezone property located at 575 North DuPont Highway for the purpose of insurance offices. Prior to amending the zoning map and zoning ordinance of the City of Dover, a public hearing is required.

By motion of Mr. McDonough, seconded by Mr. Witt, Council unanimously adopted the following resolution and referred the request to the Planning Commission.

A RESOLUTION SETTING FORTH TIME AND PLACE OF PUBLIC HEARING ON A PROPOSED AMENDMENT TO THE ZONING MAP OF THE CITY OF DOVER AND DIRECTING THAT NOTICE OF SAID HEARING BE PUBLISHED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE PROVISIONS OF THE DELAWARE CODE.

WHEREAS, certain lands located at 575 North DuPont Highway are presently zoned for R-20 use, and

ADOPTED APRIL 23, 1979

CORRESPONDENCE

Community Festival - Samuel Brooks

A request was received from Mr. Samuel Brooks to hold a community festival, blocking off Sussex Street, on April 29, 1979. The festival would begin at 12:00 noon and end at 7:00 p.m.

Council discussed the fact that block parties have never been permitted where it is necessary to barricade an entire street.

Chief Baker advised Council that this particular section of the City has experienced fire deaths and was concerned about fire protection during a seven hour period.

Mr. McDonough moved for denial of closing the street for a block party, seconded by Mr. Carey.

Mr. Brooks was present and explained to Mr. Hardcastle that the community festival would incorporate music from all cultures and was being presented for the children in the neighborhood.

Mr. Bewick asked if it would be possible to conduct the festival without closing the street. Mr. Brooks answered that the purpose of closing the street was for the safety of the children, although it would not be an absolute necessity.

Chief Klenoski asked Mr. Brooks if there would be an ample number of monitors who would be responsible to the Police Department; said monitors being responsible for any actions taking place at the festival.

Mr. Brooks stated that he had not planned to have monitors.

On a basis that Mr. Brooks would not close the street to hold the festival, Mr. McDonough withdrew his motion for denial as did Mr. Carey his second.

Mr. Hardcastle moved for approval of the festival with the stipulation that on Friday, April 27, 1979, names of monitors and a plan for supervision that meets the approval of Chief Klenoski, be submitted. The motion was seconded by Mr. Bewick and unanimously carried.

Wesley College - Blue Grass Concert

A request was received from Mary Alice O’Donnell, Director of Student Activities of Wesley College, to hold an outdoor Blue Grass Concert in the amphitheatre area of the college. The function would be held on May 3, 1979 beginning at 6:30 p.m. and ending at 9:30 p.m.

Noting no problems with a similar activity last year, Mr. Weyandt moved for approval of the request, seconded by Mr. Carey and unanimously carried.

Friends of Old Dover - Discover Victorian Dover Project

As a matter of record, it was noted that a letter was received from Joseph W. Maybee, President of the Friends of Old Dover, expressing their support of the Discover Victorian Dover Project.

CONTINUATION OF PUBLIC HEARING - DANGEROUS BUILDING DEMOLITION - 320 W. DIVISION STREET - LAWHORN

Mr. McDonough moved to remove from the table and continue the public hearing on the demolition of a dangerous building located at 320 W. Division Street, owned by Reverend Martha Lawhorn. The motion was seconded by Mr. Witt and unanimously carried.

Mr. Roe reported a telephone call from Mr. Cephas, stating that he was preparing a bid to renovate the property at 320 W. Division Street. He advised Mr. Cephas that he could not issue a building permit based on a directive of Council that a report be submitted on April 23, 1979 showing progress in transferring the property ownership and an indication of concrete preparation for renovation. As of this day, Mr. Roe stated that no transfers have been initiated and any progress on the building would have to be reported by Reverend Lawhorn or her representatives.

Reverend Lawhorn, accompanied by Reverend Robert F. Neil, stated that the porch had been removed from the front of the property and all rubbish cleared from the premises. An agreement has been reached with Mr. Cephas, a contractor, to perform the renovation.

Reverend Lawhorn stated that the Christian Community Church had purchased the property and by request of Mr. Weyandt presented a document for review by Solicitor Rodriguez.

Mr. Rodriguez reported that the document was a conditional contract of sale, containing five or six pages, dated February 1, 1979, naming Reverend Lawhorn and the Christian Community Church. It did not appear to have been recorded although provisions in the document stated that either party could do so.

Reverend Neil stated that he original document was in the hands of the Recorder of Deeds for processing.

Mr. Rodriguez stated that recording of the document would not transfer the deed but would name the church as equitable owner.

It was Mr. Hardcastle’s feeling that the parties concerned have shown good faith based on progress made so far and suggested an additional thirty (30) day extension for an opportunity to complete all legal matters.

After a thorough discussion, Mr. McDonough moved to table the matter until Council meeting of May 28, 1979 at which time Reverend Lawhorn and Reverend Neil will appear before Council to report progress and show proof of transfer of the property. The motion was seconded by Mr. Hardcastle and unanimously carried.

It was stipulated that Mr. Roe issue no building permits but work performed for security measures such as boarding up doors would be permitted.
