SAFETY ADVISORY COMMITTEE REPORT - SEPTEMBER 11, 1990
The Safety Advisory Committee met on September 11, 1990, with Chairman Hall presiding.
Access Road Between Woodmill Village and Deerfield
During their Regular Meeting of August 27, 1990, Council accepted the Utility Committee's recommendation to deny the request to close the access road between Woodmill Village and Deerfield. Council authorized the City Manager to meet with residents of the area to discuss alternatives and formulate recommendations to be presented to the Safety Advisory Committee for consideration.
Mr. Worley reported that staff investigated the possibility of prohibiting through traffic by making the road one-way and has determined that the approach would be Inefficient. The Police Department and the City Manager's Office will be meeting with the Woodmill Civic Association to discuss methods for controlling speeding vehicles in that neighborhood.
Staff was requested to submit a report on the results of the meeting with the Woodmill Civic Association at the October Committee meeting.
Alley Behind Edgehill Shopping Center
The committee considered a letter from Mr. and Mrs. John DeVary, who's backyard extends to the Edgehill Alley, regarding their concerns and problems with people stopping their vehicles in the alley and urinating. The committee tabled action on the matter to allow staff and the Police Department to examine possible solutions for the area.
Mr. Worley advised members that although the alley cannot be observed at all times, the Police Department will be patrolling the alley more frequently.
Mr. Weyandt suggested that the merchants in the Edgehill Shopping Center be contacted to consider the placement of a gate in the alley that would be controlled by the merchants.
Agreeing, Mr. Levitt suggested that an entrance card could be utilized that would provide access for delivery trucks and by the residents of that area who must use the alley to park in their garages.
Mr. Hall relayed his concerns with the placement of a gate, feeling that emergency vehicles would be denied access.
Mr. Worley stated his concerns with the responsibilities of enforcing accessibility and the purchase of the gate and cards. He also suggested that the legality of blocking the right-of-way should be researched prior to any action.
The committee tabled action to allow Chief Hutchison and the City Manager's Office to contact the merchants for their opinion on the suggested gate, and to research the legal aspect of placing a gate at the entrance way of the alley.
Mr. Lynn moved to accept the Safety Advisory Committee report as submitted, seconded by Mr. Weyandt and unanimously carried.
UTILITY COMMITTEE REPORT - SEPTEMBER 11, 1990
The Utility Committee met on September 11, 1990, with Chairman Daisey presiding.
Stoney Creek Development - Stormwater Runoff
The committee considered a letter from Mr. Robert Tudor, 1058 South Little Creek Road, concerning an increase of water flow on his property created by the stormwater runoff from the new Stoney Creek development.
Mr. Scrafford advised members that the Stoney Creek development contains approximately 22 acres of land. He explained that the design of Stoney Creek included a detention pond at the southeast corner of the property which accommodates drainage for approximately 46 acres of land. Drainage calculations performed during the design of this project indicated that the peak predevelopment runoff rate was 38.3 cubic feet per second, and that the peak postdevelopment runoff rate was 34.0 cubic feet per second.
Mr. Scrafford explained that the outlet for the detention pond is connected to the pipe located under South Little Creek Road which extends to Mr. Tudor's land. He stated that the rate of water flow under South Little Creek Road has not increased with the development of Stoney Creek.
Mr. Tudor advised members that when the State of Delaware began improving South Little Creek Road in 1957, he entered into an agreement that permitted the installation of a pipe in his property to allow the water from the road to flow to a stream in the rear of his property. Although the developers of Stoney Creek installed a normal drainage pond, Mr. Tudor stated that it became ineffective when the drainage pipe was installed at the very lowest point which forced the water to cross the road onto his property.
Mr. Worley explained that there are laws that prohibit new developments from creating an increase of water flow onto adjacent properties. He stated that due to these laws and the City's policy, the developers of Stoney Creek were required to install a detention pond.
Mr. Tudor felt that since the City approved the detention pond, the City should be responsible for installing a larger drainage pipe to accommodate the excess water in the area.
Responding to Mr. Tudor, Mr. Scrafford stated that he feels that there is no excess water in that area and that the installation of a larger drainage pipe would be irrelevant. He stated that the location of the drainage pipe in the detention pond is installed so that water does not remain in the pond. He also stated that the productivity of the detention pond cannot be based on the level of water that it is maintaining. Mr. Scrafford explained that detention ponds are designed to hold water above a specific rate of release. Any water above the specific rate of release would indicate that the detention pond is not working properly.
The committee recommended that staff meet with Mr. Tudor and the State Highway Department at the site for further review and recommendation.
Placement of Underground Stormwater Piping - Barrister Place
Mr. Tudor submitted a letter concerning a drainage problem at 447 Barrister Place, owned by Mr. and Mrs. Soja. He stated that since the installation of a concrete driveway at 449 Barrister Place, the land was raised causing the water to flow onto the Soja’s property. To alleviate the problem, Mr. Tudor suggested that an underground stormwater pipe should be installed; however, due to the downstream grades, the pipe should be installed with its invert at the current elevation of the swale.
Mr. Worley stated that although the City does not usually get involved in problems between property owners and private property, as a result of a law suit between the property owners of 447 and 449 Barrister Place, the City was instructed by the Courts to assist In correcting the problem.
Mr. Worley stated that staff has been working on this problem since December, 1986. He explained that the northern four properties, located on the east side of Barrister Place, are drained by a swale approximately 10 feet from the front of the houses to a catch basin north of the properties, which was originally designed. To assure that no high spots existed downstream of 447 Barrister Place, staff determined that the most appropriate method of providing proper drainage would be to regrade the existing swale from 449 Barrister Place north to the existing catch basin.
Mr. Worley advised members that on November 1, 1988, the City notified the four affected property owners of the situation and requested their permission to complete the necessary work on their property. Approval was received from 443, 445, and 449 Barrister Place. Following a number of letters between the owners of 447 Barrister Place and the City, the owners were advised that the City would be on site to complete the work on May 18, 1989. Upon completion of the work, the owners of 447 Barrister Place immediately blocked the flow of water by placing sod in the pipe.
On May 25, 1989 and December 18, 1989, the City Solicitor submitted letters to the property owners of 447 Barrister Place, informing them that City crews would unclog the drainage swale on their property on April 16, 1990. Mr. Worley stated that again the flow of water was blocked. The City Solicitor sent another letter, dated June 25, 1990, advising the owners that City crews will immediately correct the situation and that if the blockage occurs again, the City intends to prosecute.
Mr. Worley stated that a possible solution would be to install an underground pipe which would allow water to continue to flow to the basin. This would make it necessary for the ground to be graded; however, the cost of such work would be the responsibility of the property owners.
Responding to Mr. Tudor, Mr. Worley stated that this area was annexed into the City limits after the foundations of the houses were completed.
Mr. Scrafford stated that there is a pipe in Mr. Raynor's property, 449 Barrister Place, which runs from his driveway to the Soja's property line. Staff surveyed the driveways and found that the natural fall is from Mr. Raynor's property to the catch basin. Mr. Scrafford explained that it would be necessary to grade each yard in order for the water to flow from Mr. Raynor's property to the catch basin. Staff has obtained permission from the property owners of 443, 445, and 449, to perform the necessary work; however, he stated that the City has not been able to get permission from the Soja’s.
Responding to Mr. Daisey, Mr. Scrafford stated that staff was prepared to install a pipe from Mr. Raynor's driveway to Mrs. Soja’s driveway; however, due to the elevation of the land, water would not flow to the catch basin.
Mr. Worley stated that staff feels there is no other alternative other than to re-install the original drainage plan and allow the stormwater from adjacent properties to flow to the north. He stated that no matter what work is performed, there will never be perfect drainage in this area.
Responding to Mr. Weyandt, Mr. Scrafford stated that in order to get a natural flow of water to the catch basin, it would be necessary to grade Mrs. Soja’s lawn to its original elevation and connect a pipe to Mr. Raynor's pipe so that the water could flow through the lawn. Mr. Scrafford stated that it was staff's intentions to restore all yards to their original condition.
The committee tabled action to allow staff to meet with the property owners of Barrister Place.
Request to Abandon Kerbin Street Extended
Mr. George Murphy, of 106 Elm Terrace, submitted a letter requesting that the City abandon the property known as Kerbin Street Extension to the adjacent property owners.
Mr. Worley reported that in 1982, a similar request was received from Mr. and Mrs. Murphy and Mr. and Mrs. Nicolas Rosello, who owned 50 Elm Terrace at the time. The request was denied since the area immediately to the south of Kerbin Street Extension is the tar ditch area in which the City's storm and sanitary sewerage systems are located, as well as the Kent County sanitary force main, a water main and a City well.
Mr. Worley advised members that there is a ten-inch water main and an electric service line located within Kerbin Street Extension. He stated that the Electric and Public Works Department have no concerns with the request but recommended that a utility easement be retained for the existing and any future utilities.
The City Assessor, Mr. Lucas, indicated that there is a problem with ownership of a portion of the adjacent land. He advised members that 50 Elm Terrace was once owned by Mr. G. Leslie Gooden. The estate of Mr. Gooden was to be disposed of by the Farmers Bank/Girard Bank/Mellon Bank Trust Department. Mr. Lucas explained that when the final parcel of estate was being conveyed, the rear portion of the property was overlooked and not incorporated into the deed. Although the front portion of 50 Elm Terrace is now owned by Mr. and Mrs. Albert Hause, Mr. Lucas stated that the rear portion of this parcel of land has been designated as "the remaining lands of G. Leslie Gooden Estate". He stated that correspondence has been sent between the various trust departments and although they realize a mistake has been made, the trust is closed and no funds are available for the costs of a transfer. Since this parcel of land is located at the end of Kerbin Street Extension, Mr. Lucas stated that the street should not be closed since it would deny access to that parcel.
Mr. Lucas stated that the adjacent property owners could own the parcel of land for the cost of the transfer and the accumulated property taxes in the amount of $238.86. He stated that if Mr. Hause or Mr. Murphy does not pursue the acquisition of the property, It would be sold in the fall of 1990 at public auction for delinquent taxes.
Staff recommended that the request to abandon Kerbin Street Extension be denied until ownership of the parcel is established so that it can then be determined if abandonment would deny access to that property.
The committee recommended that the request of Mr. George Murphy be denied as recommended by staff.
Mr. Daisey moved to deny the request of Mr. George Murphy to abandon Kerbin Street Extension until ownership of the parcel is established. The motion was seconded by Mr. VanSant and carried by a unanimous roll call vote.
Quarterly Fuel Adjustment Review
The City reviews its Fuel Adjustment Projections at least quarterly and modifies the Fuel Adjustment in December on a levelized basis for the next calendar year.
Mr. Worley reported that the price of oil has changed six (6) times during the month of August, with a 44% increase in twenty-five days. Although the price has not changed since August 25th, he stated that the market is still very volatile.
Based on information of expenses and revenues, staff feels that it is not necessary to change the current fuel adjustment at this time.
The committee took no further action.
Life Extension Evaluation Report - Units #1 and #2
In the year 2000, Units #1 and #2 will be 40 years old, which is the normal life expectancy of an oil/gas fired steam generating unit. In March 1989, Council authorized EBASCO Plant Service, Inc., to provide engineering and technical services for the life extension evaluation of McKee Run Units #1 and #2.
The final report was submitted In August 1990, which indicated that the useful life of both units can be extended for an indefinite period of time beyond the 40 years with a $3.5 million overhaul. The cost effective point for the life extension overhaul, as determined by the RMI study, was $7.5 million; therefore, it would be cost effective to extend the life of both units. This would provide the City with 32 MW of generating capacity beyond the year 2000 that otherwise would have to be purchased or constructed. This would also enable the City to postpone the expenditure of funds for the additional 32 KW capacity.
Since receipt of the draft report in February 1990, City staff has already been Implementing some of the recommendations for repairs and modifications. The plan is to stage the recommendations of the report over a period of years.
Staff recommended that Council accept the final report and that staff be authorized to include the recommendations of the report in future planning.
The committee recommended the approval of staff's recommendation.
Mr. Daisey moved to accept the McKee Run Station Units #1 and #2 Life Extension Evaluation Final Report as submitted by EBASCO Services, Inc., and that staff be authorized to include the recommendations of the report in future planning. The motion was seconded by Mr. VanSant and unanimously carried.
Acceptance of Streets - Walker Woods
The developer of Walker Woods requested that the streets and utilities of Walker Woods be accepted for maintenance and ownership by the City. After construction was completed, staff inspected the improvements and provided the developer with a list of repairs needed to meet City standards which was completed. As-built drawings, a one-year maintenance agreement and bond, and a Release from Liabilities form have been submitted. Staff recommended the acceptance of the dedication of Walker Woods.
The committee recommended the acceptance of the dedication of Walker Woods.
Mr. Daisey moved to accept the dedication of Walker Woods, seconded by Mr. Lynn.
Responding to Council President Christiansen, Mr. Scrafford reported that the maintenance bond is valued at approximately $10,000 which is 10% of the total cost of the project.
The motion to accept the dedication of Walker Woods was carried by a roll call vote of eight (8) yes, one (1) no (Christiansen).
Engineering Agreement - Construction Phase for Production Wells
Staff has recently completed negotiations with BCM Engineers, Inc., of Washington, D.C., to provide engineering services for the construction of production wells. The negotiated contract is for an amount of $111,775.50, and only the actual hours worked shall be paid. This work includes the observation of the production well drilling and testing, and the analysis of the data for six production wells.
This agreement is entitled "Amendment Two" to the existing Engineering Services Agreement. The original Agreement was for $240,500, which was the Phase 4 engineering cost. Amendment One involved the engineering services through the bid phase, totalling $6,728. Amendments One and Two include the work which is contained in the Phase 5 engineering cost of the Well Field project.
Staff recommended that the Agreement with BCM Engineers, Inc. in the amount of $111,775.50 be approved.
Mr. Worley advised members that the funding for this project is included in the 1986 Water/Sewer Revenue Bond.
The committee recommended approval of staff's recommendation.
Mr. Daisey moved to approve Amendment Two of the existing Engineering Agreement with BCM Engineers, Inc., in the amount of $111,775.50, for the construction of production wells (as on file in the Office of the City Clerk). The motion was seconded by Mr. VanSant and carried by a unanimous roll call vote.
Bids
Production Well Drilling Contract
As a result of the testing phase of the Well Field Development project, it was proposed to drill six additional production wells. This project includes the drilling and testing of the wells, which is necessary to size the pumps and motors which will be installed.
Mr. Worley stated that although the Phase 3 testing indicated that a total of seven production wells should be drilled, one already exists. Of the remaining six necessary, access to the land is available at four of them and negotiations are continuing on the remaining two.
Staff recommended awarding the bid to the lowest bidder, Delmarva Drilling Company, Inc. , in the amount of $274,530. The engineer's estimate was $311,460.
The committee recommended acceptance of staff's recommendation.
Mr. Daisey moved to award the production well drilling contract to Delmarva Drilling Company, Inc., in the amount of $274,530, seconded by Mr. VanSant and carried by a unanimous roll call vote.
Sewer Replacement - Sherwood 5
Early in the construction of the Sherwood 5 Subdivision, it was discovered that the existing sewer system was deteriorating. After video taping confirmed the deterioration, it was recommended that the sanitary sewer system in Sherwood 5 be replaced. Staff recommended that the bid be awarded to Teal Construction, Inc. in the amount of $59,540. The engineer's estimate was $65,250.
The committee recommended acceptance of staff's recommendation.
Mr. Daisey moved to award the bid for the replacement of the sanitary sewer system in Sherwood 5 to Teal Construction, Inc., in the amount of $59,540. The motion was seconded by Mr. VanSant and carried by a unanimous roll call vote.
Unit #3 Turbine Overhaul
Unit #3 Turbine is scheduled for its five-year overhaul. East Coast Management has performed the turbine/generator work since 1975 and their work has always been satisfactory. Work is scheduled to begin October 29th and completed by December 15th.
Staff recommended that a purchase order be awarded to East Coast Management for $202,580, which covers only the opening and closing of the turbine generator. The bids also included labor rates for any necessary work that is discovered once the turbine and generator are opened. These rates were also evaluated in order to arrive at a recommendation. All work determined to be necessary will be covered under the continuity of service provisions at the labor rates quoted. Any parts that are needed will be ordered directly by the City. The budget allocation for the entire overhaul, based on previous experience and escalation, is $530,000 which includes opening, closing, parts and labor for the overhaul.
The committee recommended that a purchase order be awarded to East Coast Management in the amount of $202,580 for the Unit #3 Overhaul.
Mr. Daisey moved to approve the committee's recommendation, seconded by Mr. VanSant and carried by a unanimous roll call vote.
Mr. Daisey moved to accept the Utility Committee's report as submitted, seconded by Mr. VanSant and unanimously carried.
CORRESPONDENCE
Delaware Technical and Community College - Request to Relocate Mobile Home
Mr. Wayne N. Dabson, Assistant Campus Director for the Delaware Technical and Community College Terry Campus, submitted a letter requesting permission to relocate the Liberty mobile home which they previously received permission to install. Since the present lease with Chesapeake Utilities expired on June 30, 1990, DTCC is requesting permission to relocate the mobile home to the rear of the main Terry Campus Building.
On December 4, 1989, Council granted DTCC permission to install the mobile home on the west side of the Industrial Training Division Building, located an U.S. Route #13, for a period not to exceed 36 months. Approval of the request excluded water and sewer hook-up. It was stipulated that the mobile home be fully skirted, bottled gas be utilized for heat, and that the office be equipped with both fire extinguishers and smoke detectors. A final inspection by the City's Department of Inspections was required prior to the issuance of a certificate of occupancy.
Mr. Petit DeMange recommended that Council approve the request with the same stipulations and final inspection as previously required.
Mr. VanSant moved to approve the request to relocate the Liberty mobile Home to the rear of the main Terry Campus Building, with the following stipulations:
1) that the mobile home be fully skirted; 2) bottled gas be utilized for heat; 3) that the office be equipped with both fire extinguishers and smoke detectors; 4) the exclusion of water and sewer hook-up; and 5) that a final inspection be conducted by the Department of Inspections prior to issuance of a certificate of occupancy. It was further moved that permission be granted for a period not to exceed 36 months from the original approval date of December 1989.
