This bill makes the Delaware law consistent in Sussex and Kent Counties by giving Sussex County government the same discretion as Kent County government to enact its personnel rules administratively. As the law currently governs, Sussex County is required to refer all proposed personnel rules to the county’s Personnel Board, which requires adequate public notice and a formal public hearing. After the Personnel Board review and recommendation, the law requires the county government to adopt the proposed rule by ordinance, which requires a second adequate public notice and a second formal public hearing. This bill eliminates these requirements and allows Sussex County to enact its personnel rules administratively, the same as is allowed in Kent County.
