HB 221 Delaware House · 151st General Assembly (2021-2022)

AN ACT TO AMEND TITLE 9 OF THE DELAWARE CODE RELATING TO THE ADMINISTRATION OF KENT COUNTY GOVERNMENT.

Summary
This Act codifies procedure for the appointment of a County Administrator by the Kent County Levy Court and specifies the powers and duties of that position. Section 2 of the Act strikes Section 5001 of Title 9 relating to Kent County because it is a duplicate of existing Section 4117 of Title 9. Section 3 strikes 4112 relating to employment of county officers, as authority over hiring is now vested in the County Administrator pursuant to new Section 4108(d)(1). Section 4 updates the provision relating to the Kent County Engineer so that position is hired by the County Administrator rather than the Levy Court.
