Henry Stockbridge, GA 30281 Phone: (770) 389-7900 CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION MEETING SUMMARY MINUTES TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 24, 2026 6:00 P.M. Mayor & City Council Mayor Jayden L. Willams At-Large Mayor Pro Tem Elton Alexander – Council District 5 Councilmember LaKeisha Gantt – Council District 1 Councilmember Antwan Cloud – Council District 2 Councilmember Kyle D. Berry, Sr. – Council District 3 Councilmember Yolanda Barber – Council District 4 Administration Shawn Edmondson – City Manager Frank Milazi – City Treasurer Cassandra Lester – Interim City Clerk Quinton Washington – City Attorney Megan McCullough – Associate Attorney Mission: To provide visionary leadership and superior municipal services that enhance the quality of life for citizens while creating a welcoming business atmosphere focused on sustainability and expansion of tourism and cultural events. The meeting was called to order by Mayor Williams at 6:00 p.m. Invocation was led by Councilmember Berry. The Pledge of Allegiance was recited by all in attendance. Interim City Clerk Lester conducted the roll call. A quorum was established. Councilmember LaKeisha Gantt arrived during Executive Session at 7:04 p.m. Motion to adopt the agenda with the amendment of item number two regarding the Norfolk Southern Lease Agreement be tabled until the March 9th meeting was made by Councilmember Berry; Seconded by Councilmember Barber. The motion passed unanimously 4-0. Mayor Williams noted that the city attorney had requested the amendment to allow more time for review. Mayor Pro Tem Alexander motioned to amend the agenda to add the Lee Street name change as a voting item but withdrew his motion after Community Development Director Ryan Anderson clarified that the item was scheduled for March 9th due to required public hearing notification procedures. Mr. Anderson explained that notifications had been sent to 1|Page 16 affected property owners and advertisements placed in the Henry Herald with the required 15-day waiting period. Motion to approve the February 9, 2026 City Council Summary Minutes was made by Mayor Pro Tem Alexander; Seconded by Councilmember Berry. The motion passed unanimously 4-0. There were three public comments. Residents from Duval Drive addressed concerns about the Rock Quarry Road Extension project. Jack Pope Jr. of 115 Duval stated that he had received materials on his mailbox showing a proposed route through his street, noting that Duval had been a dead-end street for over 50 years. He expressed concern that this was the first time residents had seen or heard of such a plan. Donna Barge of 122 Duval Drive questioned whether the Rock Quarry extension would come down Duval Drive, expressing confusion about the project plans and seeking clarification on what was being proposed. Mark Dobbs of 119 Duval Drive, a 50-year resident, emphasized that Duval Drive is a narrow street where the double yellow line doesn't extend the full length. He expressed concerns about quality of life impacts and noted that over the 25 years the Rock Quarry Road extension had been discussed, it was always planned to go past city property to meet Valley Hill Road, not through Duval Drive. Dobbs questioned why residents received only two hours' notice before the meeting and worried about impacts on small children in the neighborhood and property transactions in progress. Councilmember Barber assured the residents that their concerns would be addressed during the Rock Quarry Road Extension agenda item later in the meeting. EXECUTIVE SESSION Motion to enter executive session for real estate, personnel, cyber security, and litigation was made by Councilmember Berry, seconded by Mayor Pro Tem Alexander. Discussion: Councilmember Barber pointed out that executive session is usually held at the end of the meeting. Since several homeowners on Duval Drive have spoken about the notification they received, she proposed moving the executive session back to the end of the agenda to address their concerns. Councilmember Berry rescinded his motion to adjourn into executive session. Discussion: Mayor Pro Tem Alexander asked clarification as to why executive session was moved to the top of the meeting. Clarification was given by City Attorney Washington that it was to meet with the real estate attorney. Motion to move executive session to right above mayor's comments after new business was made by Councilmember Berry; seconded by Councilmember Barber. The motion passed unanimously 4-0. NEW BUSINESS Council consideration to approve the Norfolk Southern Lease Agreement. This item was tabled until the March 9th meeting as noted in the agenda adoption. 2|Page Council consideration to approve Task Order No. 2025.16 with Falcon — Preliminary Design – Rock Quarry Road Extension. Public Works Director Decius Aaron introduced the item, stating that previously when they discussed the Rock Quarry Road extension, there were several options, but city council was adamant about not disrupting any families or homes. Mr. Aaron confirmed that "the preferred route is from North Henry Boulevard terminating at Old Conyers Road. That is the route that council agreed on and that's the route that we will be pursuing. It will not go down Duval Drive. It would go to Old Conyers Road." Alexander asked several times as to how this item made it on the agenda prior to the Planning Retreat. Mayor Pro Tem Alexander also expressed concern that someone had put out misinformation but clarified that no one from the city put anything on citizens’ doors. Mr. Aaron explained that this was one of the TSPLOST projects with existing funding, describing it as "low hanging fruit" to create a shovel-ready project for future federal, state, and other funding opportunities. He also clarified that Mr. Price was asked to return to present the routes and concepts discussed in a previous meeting. Alexander further asked does the city have the money to complete the project citing that it’s going to cost between $40 to $50 million dollars. To which Mr. Aaron stated although we do not have the money for the project now, this item is for the preliminary plans and design which will allow for any future projects to secure funding in which to build the road. Councilmember Berry commented that during a city council meeting in November or December 2025, they tasked Falcon Design with coming back to present certain information within 60 to 90 days. He assumes that this is the follow-up to that request. He clarified that the city council is not making a decision or allocating funding; rather, they are looking for a concept of the layout or plan that outlines potential routes they could take. Adam Price managing partner with Falcon Design presented the preliminary engineering proposal, explaining that they were showing only the route to Old Conyers Road, because the Duval route had been eliminated after council said they did not want that route. Price described crossing a creek (unidentified) with a large floodplain, noting "there's a potential that we might have to do a bridge to cross this. And of course that can be very expensive, but I don't know that until I get through preliminary engineering." Mr. Price then showed the proposed route on screen, explaining, "Just to share with the Duval residents. That route was eliminated. Council said they did not want to go that route. So from what you see here is just a route to Old Conyers." Price emphasized that the Duval option had been completely eliminated: "The Duvall option is not on the table and not going to be analyzed. Just so everybody knows." Price outlined the engineering challenges, particularly focusing on the creek crossing. He mentioned that a proposal is needed to advance to preliminary engineering in order to gain a clearer understanding of potential costs. “As I noted several months ago, crossing this creek—indicated by my arrow—presents a significant challenge due to the large floodplain surrounding it. The dark lines mark the floodplain, and the stream is visible as well. It is possible that we may need to construct a bridge to span this creek, which could be quite expensive. However, I won't have a definitive cost estimate until we complete the preliminary engineering phase.” 3|Page He explained that the preliminary engineering phase would provide better cost estimates: "And at that point, this is what this proposal does. It gets you to the point where, hey, I got a really good idea of what this is going to cost now. And then if the council at that point says, hey, okay, we want finished shovel ready plans that I can take it to final engineering and be done." Councilmember Alexander asked about preliminary cost estimates, and Price acknowledged they had been "spitballing" previously with figures around $40 million, but noted: "when you're talking about a bridge, that's millions of dollars right there. If you don't have to do a bridge, it can save you millions." Alexander expressed his view on timing and property acquisition. Price confirmed that is part of the preliminary engineering stage. Alexander then discussed potential phased implementation, mentioning the new Tim Hortons development and asking about building the first section to provide access to the amphitheater and mixed-use development. Community Development Director Ryan Anderson confirmed there was an approved plan for 33 units of townhomes and single family residences behind the Tim Hortons location. Alexander emphasized that the Duval Drive route has never been a preferred route and clarified that the project's objective is to provide a bypass to alleviate traffic on East Atlanta Road. Regarding timeline, Price estimated that even with funding available immediately, "you probably wouldn't be able to start construction on this probably for upwards of 2 years. And that's in a perfect scenario." Alexander wanted clarification that no city staff had distributed information to residents, asking city staff, “Did anybody from the city put anything on these folks' doors? Anybody from the city?" Both Ryan Anderson and Decius Aaron confirmed no city personnel had done so. Councilmember Barber then spoke extensively in support of the project. “I've been advocating for this project to move forward for at least 3 years." She explained, "It's in the district that I represent. These homeowners hold me accountable for their quality of life." Barber detailed the impact of the amphitheater, citing that it brings thousands of people to the downtown area, and the homeowners are affected by it. stating "So, absolutely, I support anything that's going to provide some relief, traffic relief to homeowners who live in the area." Barber expressed strong support for moving forward: "I know this task order before us is for the design phase of $167,900. I absolutely support moving forward with the final design." She asked about the timeline and requested that Aaron and Price bring a completion timeline if the task order was approved to the city’s planning retreat. Price clarified the scope and cost, stating, "This estimate is only for the preliminary design, which will help us determine the overall cost. The final design will include the bridge and other elements. I opted not to include the final design in this estimate because we want to first assess whether a bridge is necessary. 4|Page Our goal is to design without a bridge, but if needed, we will include it. The total cost should not exceed 25 percent of your budget and will be well below $2 million." Barber concluded by noting the potential for federal and state funding if the designs are completed. Councilmember Berry emphasized the need for a phased implementation of the project: "This project needs to be carried out in phases. It won't be an overnight situation." He mentioned that this plan was created based on the original agreement everyone reached. However, we also need to take a step back and recognize that we can approach it in phases. We can tackle sections of the project as we secure funding, but it's essential to plan for these phases first.” Alexander reiterated his support for the project, noting he had worked with former City Manager Knighton to put this project in the T-SPLOST. However, he preferred discussing it thoroughly at the upcoming retreat where they would have hours to talk about it in detail rather than the limited time that evening. Motion to approve Task Order Number 2025.16 for Falcon Design for the preliminary design of Rock Quarry Road Extension in the amount of $167,900 was made by Councilmember Barber; seconded by Mayor Pro Tem Alexander. Discussion: Mayor Pro Tem Alexander stated that there is $2 million dollars set aside and hopefully some of the funding can be used for other projects such as improving a street section at Ceresa Drive. The motion passed unanimously 4-0. Council consideration authorizing the City Treasurer/CFO to make arrangements to reimburse Henry County in reference to TSPLOST. City Treasurer/CFO Frank Milazi explained that in 2021, following the TSPLOST passage, the City of Stockbridge committed through Resolution 21-233 to contribute $4 million toward Rock Quarry Road widening construction costs. Henry County had begun construction and requested fulfillment of this obligation. Milazi recommended a payment schedule of $2 million in 2026, $1 million in 2027, and the final $1 million at project completion in 2028. This timeline aligned with the county's projected 2.5-year construction schedule. Councilmember Barber clarified that this Rock Quarry Road Widening project, which terminates at North Henry Boulevard, is different from the Rock Quarry Road Extension project that was just previously discussed in the meeting. Mayor Pro Tem Alexander explained that voter approval of the one-cent sales tax enabled the Rock Quarry Road widening project. He clarified that Stockbridge's $4 million contribution combined with Henry County's $30 million investment and GDOT funding would create a four-lane road from Eagles Landing Parkway to North Henry Boulevard. The project would include a 10-foot multi-use path on one side, a 5-foot sidewalk on the other, beautification, and new street lighting and further compared the multi-use path to the Atlanta Beltline. 5|Page Alexander emphasized that the current TSPLOST would expire at year's end, with voters deciding whether to approve continuation. He noted that future transportation improvements, including projects like Duval Drive paving, would depend on TSPLOST renewal approval. Mayor Williams mentioned that he, Councilmember Cloud, and Mayor Pro Tem Alexander had recently toured GDOT projects with staff, and the Rock Quarry expansion would be a prime example displayed across the state. Motion to approve authorization of the City Treasurer/CFO to make arrangements to reimburse Henry County in reference to the TSPLOST project for the Rock Quarry Road widening in the amounts of $2 million in 2026, $1 million in 2027, and the last million at the conclusion of the project in 2028 was made by Councilmember Berry; seconded by Councilmember Cloud. The motion passed unanimously 4-0 EXECUTIVE SESSION Motion to enter executive session for real estate, personnel, cyber security, and litigation was made by Mayor Pro Tem Alexander, seconded by Councilmember Berry. The motion passed unanimously 4-0. Motion to end executive session and return to regular scheduled work session was made by Mayor Pro Tem Alexander, seconded by Councilmember Berry. The motion passed unanimously 5-0. There was no announcement from executive session. MAYOR'S COMMENTS (Mayor Jayden L. Williams) Mayor Williams announced upcoming events, including the Women's History Month event on Sunday at Merle Manders Conference Center, and directed residents to follow the city's social media and website for updates.

This report integrates comprehensive planning with fiscal responsibility through two key mechanisms: the Capital Improvements Element and Development Impact Fees. Purpose and Scope The CIE translates the City’s vision into a multi-year schedule of improvements for public facilities, transportation, water and sewer systems, parks, public safety, and cultural amenities. It ensures that infrastructure investments keep pace with growth while maintaining adopted service levels. Development impact fees complement this process by allocating a fair share of costs to new development, protecting existing residents from subsidizing growth-related needs. Key Components • Capital Improvements Element: Provides a transparent, data-driven basis for capital budgeting, interdepartmental coordination, and accountability. • Impact Fee Program: Authorized under Georgia’s Development Impact Fee Act (O.C.G.A. §36-71-1 et seq.), ensuring lawful, proportionate cost recovery for growth-related infrastructure. • Eligible Facilities: Public safety, parks and recreation, transportation, water and sewer systems, and cultural facilities. Growth Forecasts and Service Levels Population is projected to increase by 53.9% (to 56,647 residents) by 2050, with housing units growing 54.8% and employment rising 63.7%. These trends drive demand for expanded infrastructure: • Parks & Recreation: Current inventory (63.99 acres) exceeds LOS standard; future needs focus on facility enhancements, not land acquisition. • Trail System: Significant shortfall; 33.5 additional miles required to meet LOS standard of 0.65 miles per 1,000 residents. City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 3 • Water System: Growth will add 1.74 MGD of demand, requiring capacity-expanding improvements. • Public Safety: Additional 10,407 sq. ft. of facility space and one specialized vehicle needed to maintain service levels. Capital Projects and Costs The report identifies growth-related projects across all service categories, including new trail construction, park enhancements, water system upgrades, and public safety facilities. Impact fee eligibility is calculated based on proportionality and LOS standards, ensuring compliance with state law. Fiscal Sustainability and Accountability By linking planning, finance, and growth management, the CIE and impact fee program provide a disciplined approach to capital investment. Annual updates and financial reporting maintain transparency and ensure alignment with development trends and fiscal conditions. City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 4 INTRODUCTION The City’s long-term prosperity and quality of life depend on dependable public facilities, transportation networks, water and sewer systems, parks, public safety facilities, and cultural and recreational venues that keep pace with growth and evolving community needs. This report sets out the purpose, scope, and policy framework for the Capital Improvements Element (CIE) and development impact fees, two essential tools that link comprehensive planning to responsible investment. Capital Improvements Element (CIE). The CIE is the City’s strategic plan for funding and delivering priority capital projects over a defined multi-year horizon. It translates the community vision and goals of the Comprehensive Plan into a fiscally constrained schedule of improvements, identifying projects, estimated costs, funding sources, implementation timelines, and levels of service to be maintained. By aligning needs, resources, and timing, the CIE provides: • A transparent, data-driven basis for capital budgeting and annual work programs. • A framework to coordinate interdepartmental priorities and leverage grants and partnerships. • A mechanism to maintain adopted levels of service and address system deficiencies, growth-driven demands, and lifecycle asset renewal. • Accountability to residents through public reporting on planned and completed improvements. Development Impact Fees Development impact fees are a growth management and financing tool that allow the City to equitably recover a proportionate share of the capital costs of expanding public facilities necessitated by new development. When calculated and administered according to statutory and professional standards, impact fees: • Allocate costs fairly so that new growth contributes its share of capacity expansions. • Protect existing residents from subsidizing growth-related capital needs. • Support concurrency and level-of-service commitments by ensuring funding is available when capacity is needed. City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 5 • Enhance fiscal sustainability by diversifying revenue sources for eligible capital improvements. The CIE–Impact Fee Connection The CIE is the backbone of the City’s impact fee program. It documents the eligible facilities, project lists, cost estimates, and implementation schedules that underpin impact fee calculations and ensure fees are nexus-based and proportionate. Together, the CIE and impact fees create a closed loop: the CIE establishes needs and timing; impact fees provide a lawful, transparent mechanism to fund the growth-related portion of those needs; and annual updates keep both aligned with actual development trends, project delivery, and fiscal conditions. Impact Fees Authorization Development impact fees in Georgia are authorized under O.C.G.A. § 36-71-1 et seq., known as the Georgia Development Impact Fee Act (DIFA). The program is administered by the Georgia Department of Community Affairs (DCA) in accordance with Chapter 110-12-2, Development Impact Fee Compliance Requirements, of the Georgia Administrative Code. Under DIFA, local governments may impose impact fees on new development to recover its proportionate share of the cost of providing public facilities necessary to serve growth. This statutory authority ensures that infrastructure investments keep pace with development while maintaining fiscal responsibility and protecting existing residents from subsidizing growthrelated costs. To remain in compliance with DIFA and DCA regulations, the City must adopt and maintain an updated Capital Improvements Element as part of its Comprehensive Plan, calculate impact fees using approved methodologies that establish a clear nexus between development and facility needs and provide annual reporting and updates to ensure accuracy and transparency. Under the Georgia Development Impact Fee Act (DIFA), local governments may assess impact fees on new development to recover its proportionate share of the cost of providing public facilities needed to serve growth. This authority ensures that infrastructure investments keep pace with development while maintaining fiscal responsibility and preventing existing residents from subsidizing growth-related costs. City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 6 (Figure 1) City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 7 Purpose of Impact Fees Impact fees are designed to allocate the cost of growth fairly and equitably. They provide a mechanism for new development to contribute to the expansion of public facilities required to maintain adopted levels of service. Impact fees complement other revenue sources, such as property and sales taxes, by ensuring that growth pays for growth. This approach reduces the financial burden on existing residents and businesses while supporting sustainable development. Eligible facilities include: • Public Safety Facilities – Police, fire, and emergency services • Parks and Recreation Facilities – Community parks, trails, and recreational amenities • Transportation Infrastructure – Roads, intersections, and related improvements • Water and Sewer Systems – Treatment plants, distribution, and collection systems • Other Related Capital Improvements – Facilities necessary to support community growth Focus of this Report 1.

By integrating planning, finance, and growth management, the City advances a disciplined, transparent approach to capital investment—one that supports economic vitality, protects levels of service, and delivers high-value facilities for residents, businesses, and visitors City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 8 Categories for Assessment of Impact Fees The Georgia Development Impact Fee Act (O.C.G.A. §36-71-1 et seq.) authorizes local governments to assess impact fees for specific public facilities that provide system-wide benefits and are necessary to maintain adopted levels of service as growth occurs. These facilities must be identified in the Capital Improvements Element (CIE) and comply with the Georgia Department of Community Affairs’ Development Impact Fee Compliance Requirements. Table 1 presented lists the facility categories eligible for impact fee funding under Georgia law and considered in this report. These categories include: Each category aligns with statutory requirements and is evaluated in this report for planning, compliance, and financial analysis. By documenting these eligible facilities, the City ensures that impact fee revenues are allocated transparently and exclusively for capital improvements that expand capacity to serve growth, consistent with adopted Level of Service standards.

Such projections consider past and prospective trends in a community’s population, housing options, and employment opportunities over the next 25 years to 2050. Amalgamated together for a given year, these projected figures constitute a “day-night population,” a figure that demonstrates an accurate snapshot of the number of people that depend on municipal 24-hour services like fire protection. Calculating the difference of the day-night population from 2025 to 2050 provides the City of Stockbridge with a quantifiable estimate that predicts foreseeable needs and potential expansion opportunities for public safety facilities and resources through the provision of the proposed impact fee program. Population Commented [VG1]: Include information about the 2022 annexation @Brennen Reilly As a community grows, existing infrastructural resources—such as transportation networks, public safety facilities, and parks—become increasingly strained across various spatiotemporal distributions that disparage some subregions over others. Population growth trends supply local governments with quantifiable evidence that projected demand within their jurisdiction will exceed current capacity, thereby necessitating new or expanded capital facilities that enhance the equity and quality of municipal services collectively. Table 2 reveals a transition from steady population growth to temporary stagnation, followed by rapid expansion and then stabilized higher growth. Table 2 - Stockbridge Population Growth Trends (2015-2025) Year Population Estimate Total Change Percent Change 2015 27,461 352 1.30% 2016 27,918 457 1.66% 2017 28,276 358 1.28% 2018 28,617 341 1.21% 2019 28,819 202 0.71% 2020 28,961 142 0.49% 2021 29,103 142 0.49% 2022 29,245 142 0.49% 2023 34,613 5,368 18.36% 2024 35,893 1,280 3.70% 2025 36,807 914 2.55% City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 10 Between 2015 and 2018, population growth was consistent and modest, averaging roughly 1.2– 1.6% annually. In 2019, population growth began to slow significantly, with annual increases falling to 0.49% between 2020 and 2022. In 2022, the City of Stockbridge experienced a dramatic population increase of 5,368 residents, representing a 18.36% uptick since the previous year. This substantial share of total population growth was largely due to a major annexation that occurred in 2023, as illustrated in Map 1. Map 1 - Stockbridge City Limit Expansion (2021-2023) Table 3 demonstrates the sustainable, consistent growth that the City of Stockbridge expects to experience from 2025-2050. Each year, the expected population growth is positive, with annual growth rates ranging from roughly 1.4% to 2.2%. Henry County exhibits similar trends, spanning from approximately 0.9% to 1.2%. Thus, the population of the City of Stockbridge expects grow faster than that of Henry County. Notably, the city’s population will occupy a larger percentage of the county's population with each passing year, with a 2.53% uptick over 25 years. This can be largely attributed to the rapid urbanization that the city has experienced over the past five years, City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 11 leading to an expansion of economic and residential opportunities for emerging business professionals.

As shown in Table 4, housing units are projected to grow from approximately 15,296 units in 2025 to 23,675 units by 2050, representing a 54.78 percent increase over the 25-year planning horizon. This sustained residential growth reflects strong market demand, regional economic expansion, and the City’s active development pipeline, which includes a diverse mix of single-family detached homes, townhomes, multifamily apartment communities, and mixed-use developments located along key transportation corridors. This growth pattern indicates a gradual transition from primarily suburban development to a more compact and mixed housing supply that supports walkability, efficient service delivery, and proximity to employment centers. As new residential units are added, demand increases not only for neighborhood-level infrastructure, but also for citywide systems such as transportation networks, water and wastewater treatment and distribution facilities, parks and recreation amenities, and public safety services. Maintaining adopted levels of service across these systems requires coordinated capital investment that aligns with the pace, location, and intensity of new development. Stockbridge Job Growth Projections (2025–2050) Employment in the City of Stockbridge is projected to grow steadily over the 25-year planning horizon, increasing from approximately 24,325 jobs in 2025 to more than 39,800 jobs by 2050, a 63.67 percent increase. The most significant growth occurs early in the projection period, with an 8.64 percent increase between 2025 and 2026, reflecting near-term commercial and employment development currently in the pipeline. Following the initial surge, annual job growth stabilizes, gradually declining from just over 2 percent in the late 2020s to approximately 1.42 percent by 2050. This pattern reflects a maturing local economy in which long-term employment growth remains consistent but less volatile as available land decreases, and redevelopment becomes a more prominent driver of job creation. Continued employment expansion will place increasing demands on transportation infrastructure, water and wastewater systems, and public safety services—particularly during peak daytime hours—reinforcing the importance of incorporating employment forecasts into capital improvement planning. These projections support the use of development impact fees as a mechanism to ensure that growth-related infrastructure needed City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 13 to serve the City’s expanding workforce is funded proportionately and in coordination with adopted levels of service.

The projections indicate an increase from 15,296 housing units in 2025 to 23,675 units by 2050 — an addition of 8,379 units, or a 54.78% increase over the 25-year period. Annual growth rates gradually taper from 2.74% in 2026 to 1.42% by 2050, reflecting a long-term stabilization of the residential market as available land decreases and redevelopment becomes the dominant source of new housing. These projections are critical for forecasting future demands on transportation infrastructure, water and wastewater capacity, public safety services, and parks and recreation facilities. Table 6- Stockbridge Day-Night Population Change (2025-2050) Day-Night Population The day-night population reflects the maturity, development, and expansion of the City of Stockbridge, as expressed in the summation of the total number of people, housing units, and jobs available within the jurisdiction for a given year. Between 2025 and 2050, the city expects the total difference in day-night population to be roughly 43,706. The total accounts for a sharp uptick in the number of jobs that the city expects into 2026, equating to an approximate 4.34% change. From there, the yearly increase in daynight population steadily declines by roughly 0.02%-0.03% over time, lowering to 1.42% by 2050. The resulting figures will greatly aid the city forecasting prospective demand for public safety operations. City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 15 PARKS & RECREATION Parks The City of Stockbridge’s parks and recreation system is composed of a combination of active and passive park facilities designed to serve residents of all ages and activity levels. These components support organized recreation, informal leisure activities, and community gathering opportunities, and collectively contribute to the quality of life for City residents. Park and recreation components include parkland acreage as well as specific recreational amenities such as athletic fields, courts, playgrounds, trails, and supporting facilities. These components are evaluated collectively to establish the City’s Level of Service (LOS) and to determine future capital needs attributable to population growth. Introduction The City of Stockbridge provides parks and recreation facilities that support the health, wellness, and quality of life of its residents. Public parks and recreational amenities are an essential component of the City’s infrastructure system, offering opportunities for active recreation, passive enjoyment, and community gathering. Demand for these facilities is driven primarily by the City’s residential population, as parks and recreation facilities are used predominantly by residents rather than by employees or visitors. The City’s parks and recreation system consists of a combination of community parks, neighborhood parks, open space, and recreational amenities that collectively serve residents citywide. These facilities accommodate a variety of activities, including organized sports, informal recreation, walking and exercise, and family-oriented uses. While some facilities may also be used by nonresidents, such use is incidental and does not materially affect overall demand for parks and recreation services. As the City continues to experience population growth, additional parkland and recreational facilities will be required to maintain an acceptable level of service for residents. The purpose of this section of the Capital Improvements Element is to document the City’s existing parks and recreation inventory, establish adopted levels of service, and identify future capital needs associated with growth. These analyses provide the basis for long-range capital planning and for the calculation of development impact fees attributable to new residential development. City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 16 Service Area The City of Stockbridge’s parks and recreation facilities operate as a citywide system. Park facilities and recreational amenities are available to all residents regardless of location, and use is not restricted to specific neighborhoods or geographic service districts. Access to parks and recreation services is based on facility availability and programming rather than proximity to individual residences. Because parks and recreation facilities are intended to serve the City’s population as a whole, the entire City of Stockbridge is considered a single service area for the provision of parks and recreation services. All existing and future park facilities are planned, evaluated, and funded on a citywide basis. Level of Service The Level of Service (LOS) for parks and recreation in the City of Stockbridge is measured by the number of publicly accessible park acres provided per 1,000 residents. This LOS standard represents the relationship between the City’s available parkland and the demand generated by its residential population. Expressing service levels in terms of acreage per population is a commonly accepted planning practice and provides a consistent, measurable basis for evaluating existing conditions, forecasting future needs, and planning capital improvements. The City’s adopted LOS is based on an inventory of City-owned and maintained park facilities that provide recreational opportunities to residents citywide. Park acreage includes community parks, neighborhood parks, athletic parks, and specialty parks that contribute to the overall parks and recreation system. Linear facilities such as trails are evaluated separately due to their distinct function and service characteristics and are addressed independently within this Capital Improvements Element. As of 2025, the City of Stockbridge maintains approximately 63.99 acres of parkland, serving a population of 36,807 residents. This results in an existing Level of Service of approximately 1.74 acres of parkland per 1,000 residents, which exceeds the City’s adopted LOS standard of 1.10 acres per 1,000 residents. The adopted LOS represents the minimum standard the City seeks to maintain over time, while the existing LOS reflects current service delivery conditions. The adopted LOS of 1.10 acres per 1,000 residents is used as the benchmark for evaluating future park needs associated with population growth. Because the City’s existing park inventory exceeds the acreage required to maintain this standard through the planning horizon, no additional parkland acreage is required solely to accommodate projected population growth. The LOS City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 17 standard nonetheless remains an important planning tool for evaluating future improvements, prioritizing investments, and determining the appropriate use of parks and recreation impact fees for eligible facilities and amenities attributable to new development. Level of Service Calculation Methodology The Level of Service (LOS) for parks and recreation is calculated using a standard and widely accepted planning methodology that expresses publicly accessible park acreage relative to population. The LOS is determined by dividing the total amount of existing park acreage by the current population and multiplying the result by 1,000 to express the service level in terms of acres per 1,000 residents. This approach provides a consistent and measurable basis for evaluating existing service delivery conditions and forecasting future park needs. Applying this methodology to existing conditions in the City of Stockbridge, the City’s current inventory of 63.99 acres of parkland and a 2025 population of 36,807 residents results in the following calculation: • (63.99 ÷ 36,807) × 1,000 = 1.74 acres per 1,000 residents This calculated value represents the City’s existing parks and recreation Level of Service. The City has adopted a LOS standard of 1.10 acres per 1,000 residents, which serves as the minimum benchmark for evaluating future park needs associated with population growth. The adopted LOS is used for long-range planning and impact fee analysis, while the existing LOS reflects current park system capacity and service delivery conditions. Table 7 - Existing Parks and Recreation Level of Service Item Value Service Area Citywide Existing Park Acreage 63.99 acres 2025 Population 36,807 Existing LOS 1.74 acres per 1,000 residents Adopted LOS Standard 1.10 acres per 1,000 residents Service Area Forecasts Future park demand in the City of Stockbridge is projected based on anticipated population growth within the established citywide service area. Because parks and recreation facilities are intended to serve all residents regardless of location, the City is treated as a single, citywide service area for purposes of Level of Service (LOS) forecasting. City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 18 Population projections indicate that Stockbridge’s population is expected to increase from 36,807 residents in 2025 to 56,647 residents by 2050, representing an increase of 19,840 residents over the planning horizon. The City’s adopted Level of Service standard for parks and recreation is 1.10 acres of parkland per 1,000 residents, which serves as the minimum benchmark for long-range planning and impact fee analysis. Applying the adopted LOS standard to the projected 2050 population indicates that approximately 62.31 acres of parkland would be required to maintain the adopted level of service. Because the City’s existing park inventory totals approximately 63.99 acres, the City already meets and slightly exceeds the park acreage necessary to maintain the adopted LOS through the planning horizon. As a result, no additional parkland acquisition is required solely to accommodate projected population growth through 2050. Level of Service Forecast Calculation Methodology The projected 2050 park acreage requirement is calculated by applying the City’s adopted Level of Service (LOS) standard to the projected population. The adopted LOS for parks and recreation is 1.10 acres of parkland per 1,000 residents, which represents the minimum level of service the City seeks to maintain over time. Applying this methodology to the projected 2050 population yields the following calculation: • (56,647 ÷ 1,000) × 1.10 = 62.31 acres required The City’s existing park inventory totals approximately 63.99 acres, which exceeds the amount of parkland required to maintain the adopted LOS through the planning horizon. As a result, no additional park acreage is required to accommodate projected population growth through 2050. This forecast confirms that the City’s current park system capacity is sufficient to meet future demand based on the adopted LOS standard. Accordingly, growth-related park needs may be addressed through facility improvements, amenities, or enhancements within the existing park system, rather than through additional land acquisition. Relationship to Capital Improvements and Impact Fees Based on the updated Level of Service (LOS) analysis, the City of Stockbridge’s existing inventory of parkland is sufficient to maintain the adopted parks and recreation Level of Service through the 2050 planning horizon. As a result, no additional parkland acquisition is required to accommodate projected population growth. City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 19 While additional park acreage is not needed, future development will continue to generate demand for improvements, enhancements, and amenities within the City’s existing parks system, including but not limited to athletic fields, playgrounds, courts, support facilities, and site improvements. Accordingly, eligible parks and recreation capital improvements identified in the Capital Improvements Element are limited to facility development and improvement costs, rather than land acquisition This approach ensures that new development contributes its proportionate share toward growth-related capital improvements needed to maintain acceptable access to parks and recreational opportunities, while preserving existing service levels for current residents and avoiding the use of impact fees to fund deficiencies or excess capacity. Scheduling Individual Costs Improvements identified to address future parks and recreation needs cannot be scheduled on an annual basis over the planning horizon with complete certainty. Accordingly, and consistent with accepted capital planning practice, the City assigns an average year of implementation for each project for purposes of forecasting costs, calculating impact fee eligibility, and determining net present value where applicable. The parks and recreation capital improvements identified in this Capital Improvements Element are intended to maintain the City’s adopted Level of Service as population growth occurs through 2050. While specific improvement projects may be constructed earlier or later than anticipated based on funding availability, policy direction, or implementation timing, all projects are assumed to occur within the planning horizon and are evaluated for their relationship to future growth. Consistent with the Level of Service analysis, the City’s existing park acreage is sufficient to meet projected population growth through the planning horizon. Accordingly, parks and recreation capital improvements are limited to facility development, enhancements, and support infrastructure within the existing park system, more so than land acquisition. These improvements address increased usage and demand generated by new development and are therefore attributable, in part, to growth. Projects identified to meet growth-related parks and recreation demand may be funded through a combination of impact fees, general fund revenues, grants, donations, or other lawful funding sources. The proportionate share of each project attributable to new development is determined based on the Level of Service analysis and service area forecasts presented in the preceding sections. City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 20 Cost estimates for future parks and recreation improvements are informed by the City’s adopted and proposed five-year capital improvement programming, including the FY 2026 budget. These programming documents identify planned park acquisitions, facility improvements, and supporting infrastructure funded through SPLOST and other lawful revenue sources. While many of these projects address existing conditions or are fully funded outside the impact fee program, they provide a benchmark for evaluating reasonable project costs, implementation timing, and order-of-magnitude estimates for long-range capital planning. Parks and Recreation Capital Projects and Costs Based on the Level of Service (LOS) analysis and service area forecasts presented above, the City has identified a set of parks and recreation capital projects necessary to maintain acceptable service levels as population growth occurs. Consistent with the LOS analysis, these projects represent growth-related improvements necessary to maintain acceptable access and capacity within the City’s existing park system. These projects focus on facility development, enhancements, and support infrastructure within existing parks rather than land acquisition. The table below summarizes estimated project costs and identifies the portion of each project eligible for impact fee funding.

Furthermore, the Net Present Value (NPV) considers foreseeable cost increases due to inflation, as defined by annual percent increases in the Engineering News-Record’s (ENR) average Building Cost Index (BCI) and Construction Cost Index (CCI) through 2035. Projects that add new recreational capacity within the City’s existing park system and are required to accommodate future population growth are considered 100 percent impact fee eligible. These include new athletic fields and specialty park facilities that would not be constructed but for anticipated growth. Projects that expand or enhance existing facilities and provide benefit to both current and future residents are assigned partial impact fee eligibility. In these cases, the eligible percentage reflects the portion of the improvement reasonably attributable to increased usage generated by new development. The remaining cost is attributed to existing residents and is funded through other lawful revenue sources, such as SPLOST, grants, or the General Fund. Routine maintenance, general park upkeep, and replacement of existing assets that do not increase system capacity are excluded from impact fee eligibility and are not included in the cost table. Relationship to Impact Fee Schedule The growth-related costs identified in the Parks and Recreation Capital Projects Cost Table represent the portion of capital improvements attributable to new development based on the City’s adopted Level of Service standard. These costs form the basis for calculating the parks and recreation component of the City of Stockbridge’s impact fee schedule and ensure that future development contributes its proportionate share toward maintaining acceptable access to parks and recreational facilities, while avoiding the use of impact fees to fund existing deficiencies or excess system capacity. Trail System The Stockbridge Trail System is a vital component of the City’s parks, recreation, and mobility infrastructure, designed to provide safe, accessible opportunities for walking, jogging, bicycling, and other non-motorized activities. Beyond recreation, the trail network enhances connectivity between neighborhoods, parks, schools, commercial centers, and regional destinations, City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 22 supporting active transportation and reducing reliance on automobiles. This dual role promotes public health, environmental sustainability, and overall quality of life. The Capital Improvement Element (CIE) seeks to establish and maintain an adopted Level of Service (LOS) for the trail system to ensure that infrastructure keeps pace with growth. By defining LOS standards, the CIE provides a measurable benchmark for planning, funding, and implementing trail improvements that meet community needs. Introduction The City of Stockbridge’s trail system is a key component of the City’s parks, recreation, and mobility infrastructure. The trail network provides residents with opportunities for walking, jogging, bicycling, and other non-motorized activities, while also enhancing connectivity between neighborhoods, parks, schools, commercial areas, and regional destinations. Unlike traditional park facilities that primarily serve localized areas, trail facilities function as linear, citywide infrastructure designed to serve residents throughout the City. Trails support both recreational use and active transportation, contributing to public health, environmental sustainability, and overall quality of life. Demand for trail facilities is driven primarily by the City’s residential population and increases as population growth occurs. As Stockbridge continues to grow, the trail system plays an increasingly important role in accommodating recreational demand, improving access to parks and community destinations, and providing safe alternatives to vehicular travel. The purpose of this section of the Capital Improvements Element is to document the City’s trail system, establish the applicable service area and Level of Service framework, and identify future capital improvements necessary to maintain acceptable service levels as population growth occurs. These analyses provide the basis for long-range trail planning and for determining the proportionate share of trail improvements attributable to new development for impact fee purposes. Service Area The City of Stockbridge’s trail system operates as a citywide network intended to serve residents throughout the entire City, rather than discrete neighborhoods or localized service districts. Trail facilities are designed to provide continuous linear connectivity, linking residential areas to parks, schools, commercial centers, employment areas, and regional trail corridors. City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 23 Because trail facilities are intended to serve the City’s population as a whole, the entire City of Stockbridge is considered a single, citywide service area for purposes of planning, Level of Service evaluation, and capital improvements analysis. Access to trail facilities is based on network connectivity and corridor availability rather than proximity to individual residences. Existing and planned trail facilities are evaluated, programmed, and funded on a citywide basis. Improvements to the trail system are intended to enhance overall system continuity, safety, and capacity, and to accommodate increased usage associated with future population growth. As a result, trail capital improvements identified in this Capital Improvements Element are attributable, in whole or in part, to new development occurring within the City. Establishing a citywide service area for the trail system provides a consistent framework for forecasting future demand, identifying growth-related capital needs, and determining the proportionate share of trail improvements eligible for impact fee funding. Level of Service Calculation Methodology The Level of Service (LOS) for the trail system in the City of Stockbridge is evaluated using a linear facilities planning methodology that reflects the unique function and service characteristics of multi-use trails. Unlike parks, which are measured by acreage, trail facilities are measured by linear mileage and network connectivity, which more accurately represent system capacity, user demand, and access. Trail LOS is expressed in terms of miles of publicly accessible multi-use trails per 1,000 residents. This methodology is consistent with accepted planning practice for bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure and allows the City to evaluate existing trail system capacity, forecast future needs, and identify growth-related capital improvements attributable to new development. The City’s adopted trail LOS is informed by its adopted planning documents, including the Stockbridge Trails Plan, regional bicycle and pedestrian plans, and long-range transportation and mobility studies. These plans identify priority trail corridors, network gaps, and desired levels of connectivity needed to serve current and future residents. Because the City’s trail system functions as an interconnected, citywide network, LOS evaluation focuses on overall system completeness and capacity rather than minimum distance thresholds or neighborhood-based service radii. Improvements that extend trail mileage, close system gaps, enhance connectivity between destinations, or improve safety and accessibility increase overall system capacity and are therefore evaluated for their relationship to future population growth. City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 24 This LOS methodology provides the basis for determining which trail capital projects are attributable, in whole or in part, to growth and are eligible for impact fee funding, as distinguished from routine maintenance, rehabilitation, or non-capacity-expanding improvements. Table 9 - Existing Trail System Level of Service Item Value Service Area Citywide Existing Trail Mileage 3.3 miles 2025 Population 36,807 Existing Trail LOS 0.09 miles per 1,000 residents Adopted Trail LOS Standard 0.65 miles per 1,000 residents The City of Stockbridge has adopted a Level of Service (LOS) standard for its trail system expressed as miles of publicly accessible multi-use trails per 1,000 residents. This approach reflects the linear nature of trail facilities and is consistent with accepted planning practice for evaluating pedestrian and bicycle infrastructure. Based on the City’s adopted trail plans and long-range vision for a connected, citywide network linking parks, schools, neighborhoods, downtown, and regional trail corridors, the City has established an adopted trail LOS standard of 0.65 miles of trail per 1,000 residents. This standard represents the minimum level of service the City seeks to maintain as population growth occurs and provides a consistent benchmark for evaluating existing conditions, forecasting future trail needs, and identifying growth-related capital improvements. The adopted LOS is used for long-range planning and impact fee analysis, while the existing trail LOS reflects current system capacity. Because the City’s existing trail mileage is below the adopted LOS standard, future trail projects identified in this Capital Improvements Element are necessary to accommodate growth-related demand and achieve the City’s planned trail network. City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 25 Map 2 - Stockbridge Trail Network Level of Service and Forecasts Level of Service Future trail demand in the City of Stockbridge is projected based on anticipated population growth within the established citywide service area. Because the trail system functions as an interconnected, citywide network serving residents regardless of location, the City is treated as a single service area for purposes of trail Level of Service (LOS) forecasting. Population projections indicate that Stockbridge’s population is expected to increase from 36,807 residents in 2025 to 56,647 residents by 2050, representing an increase of 19,840 residents over the planning horizon. As population increases, demand for pedestrian and bicycle connectivity, recreational trail access, and non-vehicular transportation options is expected to increase proportionally. The City has adopted a trail LOS standard of 0.65 miles of publicly accessible multi-use trails per 1,000 residents, representing the minimum level of service necessary to support a connected and functional trail network. Based on existing conditions, the City currently maintains approximately 3.3 miles of publicly accessible trails, equating to an existing LOS of approximately 0.09 miles per 1,000 residents, which is below the adopted LOS standard. City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 26 Forecasts Applying the adopted LOS standard to the projected 2050 population establishes the total trail mileage required to serve future residents and provides the basis for identifying growth-related trail capital improvements necessary to expand system capacity, improve connectivity, and maintain acceptable levels of service as population growth occurs. Trail Level of Service Forecast Calculation Methodology The projected 2050 trail mileage requirement for the City of Stockbridge is calculated by applying the City’s adopted trail Level of Service (LOS) standard to the projected population within the citywide service area. The adopted trail LOS is 0.65 miles of publicly accessible multi-use trails per 1,000 residents, which represents the minimum level of service the City seeks to maintain over time. Applying this methodology to the projected 2050 population yields the following calculation: • (56,647 ÷ 1,000) × 0.65 = 36.82 miles of trail required The City’s existing trail system consists of approximately 3.3 miles of publicly accessible trails, resulting in a significant shortfall relative to the adopted LOS standard. The difference between the projected trail mileage requirement and the existing system represents the amount of additional trail mileage necessary to accommodate future population growth and achieve the City’s planned trail network: • 36.82 miles required − 3.3 existing miles = 33.52 additional miles needed This forecast quantifies the growth-related expansion of the trail system necessary to maintain the City’s adopted Level of Service through the 2050 planning horizon. The identified trail mileage deficit forms the basis for evaluating future trail capital improvements and determining the proportionate share of trail projects attributable to new development as part of the City’s impact fee program. Relationship to Capital Improvements and Impact Fees – Trail System Based on the Level of Service (LOS) analysis and service area forecasts presented above, the City of Stockbridge’s existing trail system does not meet the adopted LOS standard of 0.65 miles of publicly accessible multi-use trails per 1,000 residents. As population growth occurs through the 2050 planning horizon, additional trail mileage and supporting infrastructure will be required to expand system capacity, improve connectivity, and accommodate increased demand generated by new development. Trail capital improvements identified in this Capital Improvements City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 27 Element—including new trail construction, extensions, gap closures, trailheads, and supporting amenities—are considered capacity-expanding improvements and are eligible, in whole or in part, for impact fee funding based on their relationship to population growth and system expansion. Trail projects that add new mileage, extend the trail network, improve system connectivity, or create new access points within the City’s planned trail system are considered capacityexpanding improvements and are eligible for impact fee funding to the extent that they are required to serve future residents. These improvements would not be constructed, or would be deferred, absent anticipated population growth and increased usage of the trail system. Projects that enhance or upgrade existing trail facilities, such as safety improvements, lighting, signage, surface upgrades, or rehabilitation, may provide benefit to both existing and future residents. In these cases, only the portion of the improvement reasonably attributable to increased usage generated by new development is considered impact fee eligible. The remaining costs are attributed to existing residents and are funded through other lawful revenue sources, including SPLOST, grants, or the General Fund. Routine maintenance, repair, or non-capacity-expanding improvements that do not increase trail mileage, connectivity, or system capacity are excluded from impact fee eligibility and are not included in the trail capital projects used to calculate impact fees. This approach ensures that future development contributes its proportionate share toward the expansion and improvement of the City’s trail system, while preserving existing service levels for current residents and avoiding the use of impact fees to fund existing deficiencies or general maintenance obligations. The trail capital projects identified below represent capacity-expanding improvements necessary to meet the City of Stockbridge’s adopted trail Level of Service and to accommodate projected population growth through the 2050 planning horizon. Projects that add new trail mileage, extend the trail network, close system gaps, or create new access points are considered 100 percent impact fee eligible, as these improvements would not be constructed but for anticipated growth. For these projects, a Net Present Value (NPV) is calculated to account for foreseeable cost increases due to inflation, as defined by annual percent increases in ENR’s average Construction Cost Index (CCI) through 2035. Projects that provide both system expansion and shared benefit to existing residents—such as trailheads and wayfinding—are assigned partial impact fee eligibility based on the portion of the improvement reasonably attributable to increased usage generated by new development. Routine maintenance, rehabilitation, or non- City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 28 capacity-expanding improvements are excluded from impact fee eligibility and are not included in this table. The growth-related costs identified herein form the basis for calculating the trail component of the City of Stockbridge’s impact fee schedule and ensure that future development contributes its proportionate share toward expansion of the City’s trail system, without funding existing deficiencies or ongoing maintenance obligations.

Accordingly, and consistent with accepted capital planning practice, the City assigns an average year of implementation for each trail project for purposes of forecasting costs, calculating impact fee eligibility, and determining net present value where applicable. The trail capital improvements identified in this Capital Improvements Element are intended to expand system capacity, improve network connectivity, and maintain the City’s adopted Level of Service as population growth occurs through the 2050 planning horizon. While specific trail projects may be constructed earlier or later than anticipated based on funding availability, coordination with regional partners, right-of-way constraints, or implementation timing, all identified improvements are assumed to occur within the planning horizon and are evaluated for their relationship to future growth. Consistent with the Level of Service analysis, the City’s existing trail system does not currently meet the adopted trail Level of Service standard. Accordingly, trail capital improvements identified in this Capital Improvements Element include new trail construction, extensions, gap closures, trailheads, and supporting infrastructure necessary to accommodate increased usage generated by new residential and mixed-use development. These improvements are attributable, in whole or in part, to growth. Projects identified to meet growth-related trail demand may be funded through a combination of impact fees, SPLOST revenues, grants, partnerships, or other lawful funding sources. The proportionate share of each project attributable to new development is determined based on the Level of Service analysis and service area forecasts presented in the preceding sections. Routine maintenance, repair, rehabilitation, or non-capacity-expanding improvements that do not increase trail mileage, connectivity, or overall system capacity are excluded from growthrelated cost calculations and are not eligible for impact fee funding. Future Costs Future costs for the City of Stockbridge’s trail system are driven by the need to expand trail mileage, improve network connectivity, and provide supporting infrastructure necessary to accommodate projected population growth through the 2050 planning horizon. Based on the Level of Service (LOS) analysis and service area forecasts presented above, the City has identified a series of trail capital improvements required to move toward the adopted trail LOS standard and implement the City’s planned trail network. Trail-related future costs include expenses City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 30 associated with new trail construction, trail extensions, gap closures, spur connections, trailheads, wayfinding and signage, lighting, bridges or boardwalks, and related engineering and design services. These improvements are necessary to increase system capacity, enhance safety, improve connectivity between destinations, and ensure that the trail network can serve both existing and future residents. Cost estimates for future trail improvements are derived from adopted planning documents, including the Stockbridge Trails Plan, regional bicycle and pedestrian plans, and conceptual engineering estimates prepared for specific trail corridors. These estimates reflect current construction costs and include allowances for engineering, design, and contingency where applicable. Because the City’s trail system functions as an interconnected, citywide network, future trail costs are evaluated on a system-wide basis rather than by individual neighborhood service areas. Improvements that add trail mileage, extend the trail network, close critical gaps, or significantly enhance connectivity are considered capacity-expanding and are directly related to accommodating future population growth. These projects form the basis for evaluating growth-related capital costs and determining the portion of trail improvements eligible for impact fee funding. Not all trail-related costs are attributable to growth. Routine maintenance, repair, rehabilitation, or non-capacity-expanding improvements that do not increase trail mileage, connectivity, or overall system capacity are excluded from growth-related cost calculations and are not eligible for impact fee funding. Only those costs associated with expanding or enhancing the trail system to serve additional users are included in the Capital Improvements Element for impact fee purposes. The future trail costs identified in this Capital Improvements Element establish the basis for evaluating growth-related capital improvements, assigning impact fee eligibility, and calculating the trail component of the City of Stockbridge’s impact fee schedule. This approach ensures that future development contributes its proportionate share toward expansion and improvement of the City’s trail system, while preserving existing service levels for current residents and avoiding the use of impact fees to fund existing deficiencies or ongoing maintenance obligations. Trail Impact Fee Calculation Methodology The trail impact fee is calculated using a growth-based methodology that allocates the cost of capacity-expanding trail improvements proportionately to new development, consistent with the City of Stockbridge’s adopted Level of Service (LOS) standard and projected population growth through the 2050 planning horizon. The calculation is based on the total growth-related cost of City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 31 trail capital improvements identified in the Trail Capital Projects Cost Table. These projects include new trail construction, extensions, gap closures, trailheads, and supporting amenities that expand system capacity and connectivity. Routine maintenance, repair, and non-capacityexpanding improvements are excluded. Population projections indicate that Stockbridge’s population is expected to increase from 36,807 residents in 2025 to 56,647 residents by 2050, representing a growth of 19,840 residents. The total growth-related trail capital cost of $10,560,000 is divided by the projected population growth to determine a per-resident cost of approximately $532 per resident. To express the impact fee on a per-unit basis, the per-resident cost is multiplied by the City’s assumed average household size of 2.5 persons per dwelling unit, resulting in a trail impact fee of approximately $1,331 per dwelling unit. This methodology ensures that new development contributes its proportionate share toward trail system expansion necessary to serve future residents, consistent with the principles of rational nexus, proportionality, and benefit. Trail Impact Fee Calculation Formula Per-Resident Trail Cost Total Growth-Related Trail Capital Cost Projected Population Growth $10,560,000 = ≈ $𝟓𝟑𝟐 per resident 19,840 Per-Resident Cost = Per-Dwelling Unit Trail Impact Fee Trail Impact Fee (per dwelling unit) = Per-Resident Cost × Average Household Size = $532 × 2.5 = $𝟏, 𝟑𝟑𝟏 per dwelling unit Relationship to Impact Fee Schedule – Trail System The growth-related costs identified for the Trail System represent the portion of trail capital improvements necessary to expand system capacity and connectivity in order to accommodate projected population growth through the 2050 planning horizon. These costs are derived from the City’s adopted trail Level of Service (LOS) standard and the capital projects identified in this Capital Improvements Element. City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 32 The eligible share of trail improvement costs forms the basis for calculating the trail component of the City of Stockbridge’s impact fee schedule. By allocating only those costs attributable to new development, the impact fee program ensures that future growth contributes its proportionate share toward the expansion of the trail network, while avoiding the use of impact fees to fund existing deficiencies, routine maintenance, or improvements that primarily benefit existing residents. Based on the growth-related trail capital costs identified in this Capital Improvements Element and projected population growth through 2050, the trail impact fee is calculated at approximately $1,331 per dwelling unit, representing the proportionate share of trail system expansion attributable to new residential development. Maximum Impact Fee Schedule – Parks & Recreation The table below summarizes the maximum road improvement impact fees that may be assessed in Stockbridge based on the analyses presented in this chapter. These fees are either (1) derived by multiplying the relevant calculated impact fee for non-residential land uses by the number of persons (“Employees”) per unit of measure for a given land use or (2) directly established for residential land uses based on the calculated impact fee for dwelling units. Non-Residential Impact Fee: = Number of Employees per Unit of Measure × Calculated Impact Fee per Resident = Number of Employees per Unit of Measure × $532 Residential Impact Fee: = Calculated Impact Fee per Dwelling Unit = $1,331 City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 33 WATER Water The City of Stockbridge’s water system is a critical public utility that supports residential, commercial, institutional, and industrial development throughout the City. The system provides a reliable supply of potable water for domestic consumption, sanitation, fire protection, and economic activity, while also supporting public health, safety, and overall quality of life for residents, businesses, and visitors. The water system consists of interconnected treatment, transmission, storage, and distribution facilities that operate as an integrated, citywide network. These components are designed to meet daily water demands, accommodate peak usage conditions, and provide adequate pressure and flow for emergency response and fire suppression. Because water infrastructure must function continuously and reliably, long-range planning and capital investment are essential to maintaining system performance as development and population growth occur. Introduction As the City continues to grow, increased residential density, commercial activity, and institutional development place additional demand on the water system. Growth-related demand requires ongoing investment in water supply capacity, storage facilities, transmission mains, and distribution infrastructure to ensure that service levels remain consistent with adopted standards and regulatory requirements. Failure to plan for these needs could result in capacity constraints, reduced system reliability, or the need for emergency infrastructure upgrades. The purpose of this section of the Capital Improvements Element is to document the City’s water service framework, define the applicable service area and Level of Service (LOS), and evaluate future system demands based on projected population growth. This analysis identifies the capital improvements necessary to maintain acceptable water service levels through the 2050 planning horizon and distinguishes between improvements needed to serve existing users and those attributable to new development. This section also establishes the technical and policy foundation for calculating water system impact fees. By linking projected growth, system capacity, and capital improvement needs, the City ensures that new development contributes its proportionate share toward water City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 34 infrastructure expansion, while avoiding the use of impact fees to address existing deficiencies or routine system maintenance. This approach supports fiscal sustainability, equitable cost allocation, and compliance with state impact fee requirements. Service Area The City of Stockbridge’s water system is designed and operated as a unified, citywide service network. Water facilities provide service to all developed properties within the City limits and are intended to support future growth in accordance with adopted land use policies and development patterns. Because water infrastructure functions as an interconnected system of supply, treatment, storage, transmission, and distribution components, the entire City is treated as a single service area for purposes of planning, Level of Service (LOS) analysis, and capital improvements evaluation. Water service is provided through a combination of source water supply, treatment capacity, elevated and ground storage facilities, transmission mains, and local distribution lines that collectively serve residential neighborhoods, commercial corridors, employment centers, institutional uses, and public facilities throughout Stockbridge. These facilities are planned to ensure adequate water pressure, volume, and redundancy under both average daily demand and peak usage conditions, including fire flow requirements. The citywide service area approach reflects the operational realities of the water system, as individual system components do not serve isolated geographic subareas but instead function collectively to meet overall system demand. Improvements to water supply, storage, or transmission infrastructure typically benefit users throughout the City rather than a specific development or neighborhood. For purposes of long-range planning and impact fee analysis, future water demand generated by population and development growth is evaluated on a citywide basis. Capital improvements identified to maintain or expand water system capacity are therefore allocated across the entire service area, and the costs attributable to growth are assessed proportionately to new development regardless of location within the City. This service area designation ensures consistency with accepted utility planning practices and provides a clear framework for evaluating growth-related capital needs, scheduling improvements, and establishing water impact fees that equitably distribute costs among future system users. City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 35 Level of Service and Forecasts Level of Service The Level of Service (LOS) for the City of Stockbridge’s water system is measured in terms of average potable water demand relative to population served, consistent with accepted utility planning practice. Water system LOS reflects the ability of the City’s treatment, storage, transmission, and distribution infrastructure to meet average and peak demands, maintain adequate pressure, and provide reliable service to residents and businesses throughout the City. Per-capita water demand is used as the basis for evaluating system capacity because it reflects actual utilization patterns and allows the City to project future water needs associated with growth. Based on historical usage data and projected conservation trends, the City has adopted a planning per-capita demand rate of approximately 87.9 gallons per capita per day (GPCD) for long-range planning and impact fee analysis. This rate is derived from the City of Stockbridge Water Conservation Plan (2019), which analyzed historical potable water use and projected future efficiency gains due to conservation practices, plumbing code improvements, and water efficiency measures. Forecasts Population projections indicate that the City’s population is expected to increase from 36,807 residents in 2025 to 56,647 residents by 2050, representing an increase of 19,840 residents over the planning horizon. Applying the adopted per-capita demand rate of 87.9 GPCD produces the following growth-related average water demand increase: • 19,840 residents × 87.9 GPCD = 1,744,536 GPD ≈ 1.74 MGD Future Costs Future costs for the City of Stockbridge’s water system are driven by the need to accommodate projected growth-related increases in potable water demand while maintaining acceptable levels of service for existing users. As population increases, additional demand is placed on the City’s water treatment, storage, transmission, and distribution infrastructure. Growth-related capital improvements are therefore necessary to ensure that adequate system capacity, pressure, redundancy, and fire protection capabilities are maintained throughout the planning horizon. Based on the Level of Service (LOS) analysis presented above, future water demand is projected using a per-capita demand methodology consistent with accepted utility planning practice. The City’s adopted planning demand rate of 87.9 gallons per capita per day (GPCD) is derived from City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 36 the City of Stockbridge Water Conservation Plan (2019) and reflects historical water usage trends, conservation measures, plumbing code requirements, and anticipated efficiency gains. Population projections indicate that the City’s population is expected to increase from 36,807 residents in 2025 to 56,647 residents by 2050, representing a projected growth of 19,840 residents over the planning horizon. Applying the adopted per-capita demand rate to this population increase yields the following projected growth-related water demand: Projected Growth-Related Water Demand Formula: • Projected Population Growth × Per-Capita Water Demand = Additional Average Daily Demand Calculation: • 19,840 residents × 87.9 GPCD = 1,744,536 gallons per day This equates to approximately 1.74 million gallons per day (MGD) of additional average water demand attributable to future population growth through 2050. While the City’s existing water system currently provides adequate capacity to meet near-term demands, continued population growth will ultimately require capacity-expanding capital improvements to serve additional users. These future improvements may include expansion of water treatment capacity, construction of additional finished water storage, and upgrades to transmission and distribution infrastructure necessary to maintain adequate pressure, system reliability, redundancy, and fire flow standards. Because the City does not currently have a comprehensive water master plan identifying specific capacity expansion projects and associated costs, future water system improvements are evaluated on a system-wide basis using projected demand growth rather than individual facility thresholds. Only capital improvements that expand overall system capacity to serve new development are considered eligible for impact fee funding. Routine maintenance, asset replacement, regulatory compliance projects, and improvements required solely to serve existing users are excluded from impact fee eligibility. The projected growth-related increase in water demand provides the basis for evaluating future capacity needs, identifying impact-fee-eligible capital improvements, and establishing the proportional share of water system expansion costs attributable to new development within the City of Stockbridge. City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 37 Future Costs and Impact Fee Framework – Water System Future costs for the City of Stockbridge’s water system are driven by the need to accommodate projected growth-related increases in potable water demand while maintaining the adopted Level of Service (LOS) for both existing and future users. As population and development increase, additional demand is placed on the City’s interconnected water treatment, storage, transmission, and distribution infrastructure. Capital improvements that expand overall system capacity are therefore necessary to ensure adequate water supply, pressure, redundancy, and fire protection throughout the 2050 planning horizon. Based on the Level of Service (LOS) analysis and population forecasts presented above, future water system needs are evaluated using a demand-based planning methodology consistent with accepted utility planning practice. Rather than relying solely on individual facility capacity thresholds, system adequacy is assessed on a citywide basis using projected population growth and adopted per-capita water demand rates. This approach reflects the integrated nature of the City’s water system, in which treatment, storage, transmission, and distribution components function collectively to meet overall demand rather than serving isolated geographic subareas. The City’s adopted planning demand rate of 87.9 gallons per capita per day (GPCD), derived from the 2019 Water Conservation Plan, incorporates historical usage patterns, conservation measures, and anticipated efficiency gains. Applying this demand rate to projected population growth provides a reasonable and defensible estimate of additional system capacity required to serve future residents. This demand-based methodology establishes the technical basis for identifying growth-related capital needs and evaluating the proportional share of water system expansion attributable to new development. Because the City does not currently have a comprehensive water master plan that identifies specific capacity-expansion projects, locations, and costs, future water system improvements are evaluated at the system level rather than tied to individual facilities. Potential growth-related capital improvements may include, but are not limited to, expansion of water treatment capacity, construction of additional finished water storage, upsizing or extension of transmission mains, and distribution system improvements necessary to maintain system pressure, reliability, redundancy, and fire flow standards as demand increases. Only those capital improvements that expand overall system capacity to serve additional users are considered eligible for impact fee funding. Routine maintenance, asset replacement, rehabilitation of aging infrastructure, regulatory compliance projects, and improvements required solely to address existing deficiencies or serve current users are excluded from impact City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 38 fee eligibility. This distinction ensures that impact fees are used exclusively to fund capacityexpanding improvements necessitated by growth, consistent with state impact fee requirements and the principles of rational nexus and proportionality. The projected growth-related increase in water demand identified in the Level of Service analysis provides the basis for evaluating future capacity needs, establishing an impact-fee-eligible cost framework, and calculating the proportionate share of water system expansion costs attributable to new development. This framework allows the City to update specific project scopes and cost estimates over time—such as through future master planning efforts or capital budgeting— without altering the underlying methodology used to allocate costs between existing and future system users. Growth-Related Water Demand Calculation To evaluate future water system needs and establish a defensible basis for long-range planning and impact fee analysis, the City of Stockbridge estimates growth-related potable water demand using a per-capita demand methodology consistent with accepted utility planning practices. This approach links projected population growth to anticipated increases in average daily water demand and provides a measurable framework for assessing future system capacity requirements. The City has adopted a long-range planning per-capita demand rate of 87.9 gallons per capita per day (GPCD). This demand rate is derived from historical water consumption data and future efficiency projections contained in the City of Stockbridge Water Conservation Plan (2019). The adopted GPCD reflects existing usage patterns, anticipated reductions associated with water conservation measures, plumbing code standards, fixture efficiency improvements, and ongoing public education efforts. As such, it represents a reasonable and conservative estimate of future average daily potable water demand attributable to residential population growth. Population projections indicate that the City’s population is expected to increase from 36,807 residents in 2025 to 56,647 residents by 2050, representing a projected growth of 19,840 residents over the planning horizon. This projected increase in population forms the basis for estimating additional water system demand associated with future development. City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 39 Calculation Methodology Projected growth-related water demand is calculated using the following formula: • Projected Population Growth × Per-Capita Water Demand = Additional Average Daily Water Demand Calculation: • 19,840 residents × 87.9 gallons per capita per day = 1,744,536 gallons per day This calculation results in an estimated 1,744,536 gallons per day, or approximately 1.74 million gallons per day (MGD), of additional average daily potable water demand attributable to population growth through the 2050 planning horizon. Planning Implications This projected increase in average daily demand represents the incremental water system capacity that must be accommodated to maintain acceptable levels of service for both existing and future users. While peak day demands, fire flow requirements, and operational redundancy are addressed through system design and operational standards, average daily demand provides a consistent and widely accepted basis for long-range capacity planning and impact fee analysis. The estimated 1.74 MGD of growth-related demand establishes the quantitative foundation for evaluating future water system improvements, identifying capacity-expanding capital projects, and allocating the proportional share of water infrastructure costs attributable to new development. This demand-based approach ensures that future growth contributes equitably to the expansion of the City’s water system, while avoiding the use of impact fees to fund existing deficiencies or routine system maintenance. Water Impact Fee Calculation Methodology The water impact fee is calculated using a growth-based methodology that allocates the cost of capacity-expanding water system improvements proportionately to new development, consistent with the City of Stockbridge’s adopted Level of Service (LOS) standard and projected population growth through the 2050 planning horizon. The calculation is based on the total estimated cost of water system capacity expansion required to accommodate projected growthrelated increases in potable water demand. Capacity needs are measured using a per-capita City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 40 demand methodology derived from the City’s adopted planning demand rate of 87.9 gallons per capita per day (GPCD) and projected population growth. Population projections indicate that Stockbridge’s population is expected to increase by 19,840 residents between 2025 and 2050. Applying the adopted per-capita demand rate results in an estimated 1.74 million gallons per day (MGD) of additional average daily water demand attributable to future development. In the absence of a comprehensive water master plan identifying specific capacity expansion projects and costs, the City evaluates future water system improvements on a systemwide basis. A planning-level unit cost of $4.5 million per MGD is applied to the projected growth-related demand to estimate the total capital cost necessary to expand water system capacity. Calculation • Projected Growth Demand × Cost per MGD = Growth-Related Capital Cost • 1.74 MGD × $4,500,000 per MGD = $7,830,000 The resulting $7.83 million represents the estimated growth-related share of future water system capital improvements required to maintain acceptable service levels through the planning horizon. To express the water impact fee on a per-unit basis, the total growth-related cost is divided by projected population growth and converted to a per-dwelling-unit cost using the City’s assumed average household size of 2.5 persons per dwelling unit. Per-Resident Cost • $7,830,000 ÷ 19,840 residents ≈ $395 per resident Per-Dwelling Unit Cost • $395 × 2.5 persons per unit ≈ $988 per dwelling unit Accordingly, the water impact fee is calculated at approximately $990 per dwelling unit, representing the proportionate share of water system capacity expansion attributable to new residential development. This methodology ensures compliance with rational nexus, proportionality, and benefit principles by allocating only those costs associated with serving future growth, while excluding routine maintenance, asset replacement, and improvements required solely to serve existing users. City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 41 Future Costs and Impact Fee Framework – Water System Future costs for the City of Stockbridge’s water system are driven by the need to accommodate projected growth-related increases in potable water demand while maintaining the adopted Level of Service (LOS) for both existing and future users. As population and development increase, additional demand is placed on the City’s interconnected water treatment, storage, transmission, and distribution infrastructure. Capital improvements that expand overall system capacity are therefore necessary to ensure adequate water supply, pressure, redundancy, and fire protection throughout the 2050 planning horizon. Based on the Level of Service (LOS) analysis and population forecasts presented above, future water system needs are evaluated using a demand-based planning methodology consistent with accepted utility planning practices. System adequacy is assessed on a citywide basis using projected population growth and adopted per-capita water demand rates, reflecting the integrated nature of the City’s water system in which individual components function collectively to meet overall demand. The City’s adopted planning demand rate of 87.9 gallons per capita per day (GPCD) is derived from the City of Stockbridge Water Conservation Plan (2019) and reflects historical water usage patterns, conservation measures, plumbing code requirements, and anticipated efficiency gains. Applying this demand rate to projected population growth provides a reasonable and measurable estimate of additional system capacity required to serve future residents and establishes the technical basis for identifying growth-related capital needs. Future growth-related water system improvements may include, but are not limited to, expansion of treatment capacity, construction of additional finished water storage, and upgrades to transmission and distribution infrastructure necessary to maintain adequate pressure, system reliability, redundancy, and fire flow standards as demand increases. These improvements benefit the water system as a whole and support service delivery to future development throughout the City. Only capital improvements that expand overall system capacity to serve new development are considered eligible for impact fee funding. Routine maintenance, asset replacement, rehabilitation of aging infrastructure, regulatory compliance projects, and improvements required solely to serve existing users are excluded from impact fee eligibility. This distinction ensures that impact fees are used exclusively to fund capacity-expanding improvements City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 42 necessitated by growth, consistent with state impact fee requirements and the principles of rational nexus and proportionality. The projected growth-related increase in water demand identified in the Level of Service analysis provides the basis for evaluating future capacity needs, establishing an impact-fee-eligible cost framework, and calculating the proportional share of water system expansion costs attributable to new development. This framework allows future refinement of specific project scopes and cost estimates through ongoing planning and budgeting processes without altering the underlying methodology used to allocate costs between existing and future system users. Water System Capital Improvement Categories and Impact Fee Eligibility For purposes of long-range planning and impact fee analysis, future water system capital improvements are categorized based on whether they expand overall system capacity to serve new development or address existing system needs. This classification reflects the integrated nature of the City’s water system, in which treatment, storage, transmission, and distribution components function collectively to meet citywide demand. Only capital improvements that increase system capacity to accommodate projected growth are considered eligible for impact fee funding. Routine maintenance, asset replacement, rehabilitation of aging infrastructure, and regulatory compliance projects that do not expand system capacity are excluded from impact fee eligibility Table 11 - Water System Capital Improvement Categories Improvement Category Water Treatment Capacity Finished Water Storage Transmission Mains Distribution Capacity System Rehabilitation & Maintenance Description Expansion of potable water treatment capacity necessary to serve increased average daily and peak demands Additional elevated or ground storage required to maintain pressure, redundancy, and fire protection as demand increases Upsizing or extension of major mains required to convey increased systemwide water demand Distribution system improvements that increase hydraulic capacity to serve new development Pipe replacement, leak repair, asset rehabilitation, and regulatory compliance improvements Impact Fee Eligibility Eligible Eligible Eligible Eligible Not Eligible The growth-related costs identified for the Water System represent the portion of water system capital improvements necessary to expand overall system capacity to accommodate projected City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 43 population growth through the 2050 planning horizon. These costs are derived from the City’s adopted Level of Service standard, projected growth-related water demand, and a systemwide capacity-based planning framework. The eligible share of water system improvement costs forms the basis for calculating the water component of the City of Stockbridge’s impact fee schedule. By allocating only those costs attributable to new development, the impact fee program ensures that future growth contributes its proportionate share toward water system expansion, while avoiding the use of impact fees to fund existing deficiencies, routine maintenance, or regulatory compliance improvements that primarily benefit existing users.

Non-Residential Impact Fee: = Number of Employees per Unit of Measure × Calculated Impact Fee per Resident = Number of Employees per Unit of Measure × $395 Residential Impact Fee: = Calculated Impact Fee per Dwelling Unit = $990 City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 44 Sewer The City of Stockbridge’s sanitary sewer system is a critical public utility that supports residential, commercial, institutional, and industrial development throughout the City. The sewer system provides for the safe collection, conveyance, treatment, and disposal of wastewater, protecting public health, surface and groundwater quality, and the natural environment. Reliable sewer service is essential to maintaining sanitary conditions, supporting economic activity, and complying with state and federal environmental regulations. The sewer system consists of interconnected gravity collection mains, lift stations, force mains, and downstream treatment capacity that operate together as an integrated, citywide network. These components are designed to accommodate average daily wastewater flows, peak wetweather conditions, and system redundancy needs while preventing overflows, backups, and treatment capacity exceedances. Because sewer infrastructure must operate continuously and is subject to stringent regulatory requirements, long-range planning and coordinated capital investment are essential to maintaining system performance over time. As the City continues to grow, increased residential density, commercial development, and institutional uses generate additional wastewater flows that place increased demand on the sewer system. Growth-related demand requires capacity-expanding investments in collection, conveyance, pumping, and treatment infrastructure to ensure that service levels remain consistent with adopted standards and regulatory requirements. Without proactive planning, population growth could result in system bottlenecks, surcharging, increased inflow and infiltration impacts, or the need for emergency infrastructure upgrades. The purpose of this section of the Capital Improvements Element is to document the City’s sewer service framework, define the applicable service area and Level of Service (LOS), evaluate future system demands based on projected population growth, and establish the technical and policy foundation for calculating sewer system impact fees. This analysis identifies the capital improvements necessary to maintain acceptable sewer service levels through the 2050 planning horizon and distinguishes between improvements needed to serve existing users and those attributable to new development. City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 45 Service Area The City of Stockbridge’s sanitary sewer system is designed and operated as a unified, citywide service network. Sewer facilities provide service to developed properties within the City limits and are intended to support future growth in accordance with adopted land use policies and development patterns. Because sewer infrastructure functions as an interconnected system of collection, conveyance, pumping, and treatment components, the entire City is treated as a single service area for purposes of planning, Level of Service (LOS) analysis, and capital improvements evaluation. Individual sewer system components do not serve isolated geographic subareas but instead function collectively to meet overall system demand. Improvements to trunk mains, lift stations, force mains, or treatment capacity typically benefit users throughout the City rather than a specific development or neighborhood. Accordingly, for long-range planning and impact fee analysis, future wastewater demand generated by population and development growth is evaluated on a citywide basis. Capital improvements identified to maintain or expand sewer system capacity are therefore allocated across the entire service area, and the costs attributable to growth are assessed proportionately to new development regardless of location within the City. This service area designation reflects accepted utility planning practice and provides a clear and defensible framework for evaluating growth-related capital needs and allocating sewer impact fees equitably among future system users. Level of Service The Level of Service (LOS) for the City of Stockbridge’s sanitary sewer system is measured in terms of average wastewater flow relative to the population served, consistent with accepted wastewater planning practices. Sewer system LOS reflects the ability of the City’s collection, conveyance, pumping, and treatment infrastructure to safely and reliably manage average daily and peak wet-weather flows without system surcharging, overflows, or treatment capacity exceedances. Per-capita wastewater generation is used as the basis for evaluating sewer system capacity because it provides a consistent measure of demand and allows the City to project future wastewater flows associated with population growth. For long-range planning and impact fee analysis, wastewater generation is assumed to closely correspond to potable water usage. Accordingly, the City applies the same per-capita demand rate used for water system planning— 87.9 gallons per capita per day (GPCD)—as a conservative proxy for average wastewater flow. City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 46 Forecasts Population projections indicate that the City’s population is expected to increase from 36,807 residents in 2025 to 56,647 residents by 2050, representing a projected increase of 19,840 residents over the planning horizon. Applying the adopted per-capita wastewater generation rate produces the following growthrelated increase in average daily sewer flow: • 19,840 residents × 87.9 GPCD = 1,744,536 gallons per day ≈ 1.74 MGD This projected increase represents the additional average daily wastewater flow attributable to future population growth through the 2050 planning horizon and establishes the quantitative basis for evaluating future sewer system capacity needs. Future Costs and Impact Fee Framework – Sewer System Future costs for the City of Stockbridge’s sewer system are driven by the need to accommodate projected growth-related increases in wastewater flows while maintaining acceptable levels of service for both existing and future users. As population and development increase, additional demand is placed on the City’s interconnected sewer collection, conveyance, pumping, and treatment infrastructure. Growth-related capital improvements are therefore necessary to ensure adequate system capacity, reliability, and regulatory compliance throughout the planning horizon. These improvements may include, but are not limited to, expansion of treatment capacity, upsizing or extension of trunk sewer mains, upgrades to lift stations, and improvements to force mains required to convey increased systemwide wastewater flows. Because the City does not currently have a comprehensive sewer master plan identifying specific capacity-expansion projects, locations, and costs, future sewer system improvements are evaluated using a systemwide, demand-based planning framework rather than individual facility thresholds. This approach reflects the integrated nature of the sewer system and provides a reasonable and defensible basis for identifying growth-related capital needs. Only capital improvements that expand overall system capacity to serve new development are considered eligible for impact fee funding.

Non-Residential Impact Fee: = Number of Employees per Unit of Measure × Calculated Impact Fee per Resident = Number of Employees per Unit of Measure × $554 Residential Impact Fee: = Calculated Impact Fee per Dwelling Unit = $1,385 Stormwater The City of Stockbridge’s stormwater system is a critical public infrastructure network that protects public safety, property, and environmental resources by managing the collection, conveyance, treatment, and discharge of stormwater runoff. The system reduces flooding risks, minimizes erosion, and protects water quality in receiving streams and watersheds throughout the City. Stormwater infrastructure supports residential, commercial, institutional, and industrial development by safely accommodating runoff generated by impervious surfaces such as rooftops, roadways, parking areas, and sidewalks. The stormwater system consists of interconnected components including pipes, culverts, open channels, detention and retention facilities, outfalls, and water quality structures. These components operate as an integrated, citywide network designed to manage runoff under both frequent rainfall events and larger storm conditions. Because stormwater facilities must function reliably to protect life and property, long-range planning and capital investment are essential as development and impervious surface coverage increase over time. City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 49 Introduction As the City continues to grow, new development increases impervious surfaces and runoff volumes, placing additional demand on the stormwater system. Growth-related demand requires capital investment in stormwater conveyance capacity, regional detention facilities, and drainage infrastructure to maintain acceptable service levels and reduce flooding impacts. Failure to plan for these needs may result in localized flooding, infrastructure failures, or increased maintenance and emergency response costs. The purpose of this section of the Capital Improvements Element is to document the City’s stormwater service framework, define the applicable service area and Level of Service (LOS), evaluate future system demands based on projected growth, and establish a defensible basis for identifying growth-related capital improvements and calculating stormwater impact fees. Service Area The City of Stockbridge’s stormwater system is planned and operated as a unified, citywide service network. Stormwater facilities provide drainage service to all developed properties within the City limits and are intended to support future growth in accordance with adopted land use policies and development patterns. Because stormwater runoff does not conform to parcel boundaries and is influenced by watershed conditions, drainage patterns, and interconnected conveyance systems, the entire City is treated as a single service area for purposes of planning, Level of Service (LOS) analysis, and capital improvements evaluation. Improvements to major stormwater conveyance infrastructure, detention facilities, and flood control systems typically benefit multiple drainage areas and properties throughout the City rather than isolated locations. For purposes of long-range planning and impact fee analysis, future stormwater demand generated by population growth and increased impervious surface coverage is evaluated on a citywide basis. Capital improvements necessary to manage growth-related runoff are therefore allocated across the entire service area, and the costs attributable to growth are assessed proportionately to new development regardless of location within the City. Level of Service The Level of Service (LOS) for the City of Stockbridge’s stormwater system is measured in terms of the system’s ability to safely convey and manage stormwater runoff generated by existing and future development while minimizing flooding, erosion, and water quality impacts. Stormwater LOS reflects the capacity of conveyance infrastructure, detention facilities, and drainage systems to accommodate runoff associated with increasing impervious surfaces. City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 50 For planning and impact fee purposes, stormwater demand is directly related to development intensity and impervious surface coverage rather than population alone. As development occurs, increased impervious area results in higher runoff volumes and peak flows, necessitating capacity-expanding stormwater infrastructure improvements to maintain acceptable service levels. Forecasts Population projections indicate that the City’s population is expected to increase from 36,807 residents in 2025 to 56,647 residents by 2050, representing growth of 19,840 residents. This growth is expected to be accompanied by increased residential, commercial, and institutional development, resulting in additional impervious surface coverage and increased stormwater runoff volumes throughout the City. The projected increase in impervious area associated with future development forms the basis for evaluating growth-related stormwater system needs and identifying capacity-expanding capital improvements necessary to maintain acceptable levels of service through the planning horizon. Future Costs Future costs for the City of Stockbridge’s stormwater system are driven by the need to accommodate increased runoff volumes generated by new development while maintaining acceptable drainage performance and minimizing flooding risks. As impervious surface coverage increases, additional capacity is required within the stormwater conveyance and detention system to safely manage peak flows and protect downstream properties and infrastructure. Based on the Level of Service analysis and growth forecasts presented above, future stormwater system needs are evaluated using a systemwide, capacity-based planning approach. Rather than relying solely on site-specific drainage improvements, the City evaluates stormwater adequacy on a citywide basis, recognizing that major conveyance facilities, regional detention systems, and drainage improvements often serve multiple developments and drainage areas. Growth-related stormwater capital improvements may include, but are not limited to, expansion of regional detention or retention facilities, upsizing or extension of major stormwater conveyance infrastructure, construction of flood control facilities, and drainage system improvements necessary to manage increased runoff volumes associated with future development. Only capital improvements that expand overall stormwater system capacity to serve new development are considered eligible for impact fee funding. Routine maintenance, City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 51 erosion repair, pipe rehabilitation, regulatory compliance projects, and improvements required solely to address existing drainage deficiencies are excluded from impact fee eligibility. Stormwater Capital Improvement Categories and Impact Fee Eligibility For purposes of long-range planning and impact fee analysis, future stormwater system capital improvements are categorized based on whether they expand overall system capacity to manage increased runoff generated by new development or address existing maintenance and system needs.

These costs are derived from the City’s adopted Level of Service framework and a systemwide capacity-based planning approach. City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 52 The eligible share of stormwater system improvement costs forms the basis for calculating the stormwater component of the City of Stockbridge’s impact fee schedule. By allocating only those costs attributable to new development, the impact fee program ensures that future growth contributes its proportionate share toward stormwater system expansion, while avoiding the use of impact fees to fund existing deficiencies, routine maintenance, or regulatory compliance obligations. Stormwater Impact Fee Calculation Methodology The stormwater impact fee is calculated using a growth-based methodology that allocates the cost of capacity-expanding stormwater system improvements proportionately to new development, consistent with the City of Stockbridge’s adopted Level of Service (LOS) framework and projected growth through the 2050 planning horizon. The methodology is designed to ensure a rational nexus between new development, increased stormwater runoff, and the capital improvements required to manage that runoff. Stormwater demand is directly related to development intensity and impervious surface coverage rather than population alone. As new development occurs, additional impervious surfaces generate increased runoff volumes and peak flows, requiring expansion of stormwater conveyance capacity, regional detention facilities, and drainage infrastructure to maintain acceptable levels of service and minimize flooding impacts. Because the City does not currently have a comprehensive stormwater master plan identifying specific capacity expansion projects and costs, future stormwater system improvements are evaluated on a systemwide basis. Growth-related capital needs are estimated using a planninglevel cost framework that reflects typical stormwater infrastructure investments necessary to accommodate increased runoff associated with future development. Methodology Framework The stormwater impact fee calculation follows these steps: 1. Identify Growth Driver Stormwater demand is driven by new development and increased impervious surface coverage associated with population and employment growth. 2. Estimate Growth-Related Capital Costs Planning-level stormwater capital costs are identified for capacity-expanding improvements such as: o Regional detention and retention facilities o Major conveyance system expansions o Drainage system capacity upgrades City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 53 Routine maintenance, rehabilitation, erosion repair, and regulatory compliance projects are excluded. 3. Allocate Costs to New Development Only the portion of stormwater capital improvements required to serve future development is included in the impact fee calculation. 4. Convert Costs to a Per-Unit Fee Total growth-related stormwater costs are allocated across projected development to establish an impact fee on a per-dwelling-unit or per-square-foot basis, depending on land use type. Conceptual Calculation Formula For planning and documentation purposes, the stormwater impact fee is calculated using the following framework: • Growth-Related Stormwater Capital Cost ÷ Projected Growth Units = Stormwater Impact Fee Rate This approach ensures that the stormwater impact fee reflects only the proportional share of capacity expansion costs attributable to new development and complies with the principles of rational nexus, proportionality, and benefit. The resulting stormwater impact fee is incorporated into the City’s impact fee schedule alongside water and sewer fees, ensuring coordinated infrastructure funding while maintaining fiscal equity between existing and future users.

The analysis is based on a projected population increase of 19,840 residents and applies consistent, demand-based methodologies to ensure proportional and defensible allocation of infrastructure costs to new development. For the water system, future demand is estimated using the City’s adopted planning rate of 87.9 gallons per capita per day (GPCD), resulting in an additional average daily demand of approximately 1.74 million gallons per day (MGD). Applying a planning-level unit cost of $4.5 City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 55 million per MGD yields an estimated growth-related capital cost of approximately $7.83 million. This cost represents capacity-expanding improvements necessary to maintain adequate supply, pressure, storage, and fire protection as development occurs. For the sewer system, growth-related demand is calculated by applying a 90 percent return flow factor to projected water demand, resulting in an estimated 1.57 MGD of additional wastewater flow attributable to future development. Using a planning-level unit cost of $7.0 million per MGD, the estimated growth-related sewer capital cost is approximately $11.0 million. These costs reflect capacity-expanding improvements needed to accommodate increased wastewater flows while maintaining system performance and regulatory compliance. For the stormwater system, growth-related demand is driven by increases in impervious surface area associated with new development. Based on projected residential growth and an estimated impervious area generation rate of 0.30 impervious acres per dwelling unit, future development is expected to add approximately 2,381 impervious acres citywide. Applying a planning-level unit cost of $35,000 per impervious acre and assigning a conservative 60 percent growth-related eligibility factor results in an estimated impact-fee-eligible stormwater capital cost of approximately $50.0 million. This reflects the portion of stormwater improvements necessary to manage runoff generated by new development, excluding costs attributable to existing conditions or regulatory compliance. When expressed on a per-unit basis using an assumed household size of 2.5 persons per dwelling unit, the resulting impact fees are approximately $990 per dwelling unit for water, $1,385 per dwelling unit for sewer, and $6,300 per dwelling unit for stormwater. Collectively, these fees ensure that new development contributes its proportionate share toward the expansion of utility infrastructure needed to serve future growth, while avoiding the use of impact fees to address existing deficiencies or routine maintenance. This unified framework provides the City with a transparent, defensible, and flexible methodology for calculating utility impact fees that can be refined over time as more detailed master planning, project scoping, or cost estimates become available. Maximum Impact Fee Schedule – Stormwater The table below summarizes the maximum road improvement impact fees that may be assessed in Stockbridge based on the analyses presented in this chapter. These fees are either (1) derived by multiplying the relevant calculated impact fee for non-residential land uses by the number of City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 56 persons (“Employees”) per unit of measure for a given land use or (2) directly established for residential land uses based on the calculated impact fee for dwelling units. Non-Residential Impact Fee: = Number of Employees per Unit of Measure × Calculated Impact Fee per Impervious Acre = Number of Employees per Unit of Measure × $21,000 Residential Impact Fee: = Calculated Impact Fee per Dwelling Unit = $6,300 City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 57 CULTURAL FACILITIES Cultural facilities are essential public assets that support civic life, cultural expression, education, and community engagement throughout the City of Stockbridge. These facilities provide spaces for public meetings, arts and cultural programming, recreational and educational activities, and community services that enhance quality of life for residents and contribute to the City’s social and economic vitality. Cultural facilities also support tourism, historic preservation, and intergenerational interaction, strengthening the City’s sense of place and community identity. As Stockbridge continues to grow, increased population and development place additional demand on cultural facilities, including meeting space, multi-purpose community facilities, arts and cultural venues, and related public amenities. Growth-related demand requires planned investment in facilities that expand public-use capacity to serve future residents while maintaining acceptable levels of service for existing users. Long-range planning and capital investment are therefore essential to ensure that cultural facilities remain accessible, functional, and responsive to community needs as the City grows. The purpose of this section of the Capital Improvements Element is to document the City’s cultural facilities service framework, define the applicable service area and Level of Service (LOS), and evaluate future facility needs based on projected population growth through the 2050 planning horizon. This analysis identifies capital improvements necessary to maintain acceptable service levels and distinguishes between improvements attributable to new development and those intended to serve existing users. This section also establishes the technical and policy foundation for calculating cultural facilities impact fees. By linking projected growth, facility capacity, and capital improvement needs, the City ensures that new development contributes its proportionate share toward cultural facility expansion, while avoiding the use of impact fees to fund existing deficiencies, routine maintenance, or operational costs. Service Area Cultural facilities in the City of Stockbridge are planned and operated as a unified, citywide service system. These facilities provide services and programming that benefit residents throughout the City, regardless of neighborhood or development location. Because cultural facilities function as centralized or shared community assets—such as conference centers, multi-purpose facilities, cultural and arts centers, and community meeting spaces—the entire City is treated as a single service area for purposes of planning, Level of Service (LOS) analysis, and capital improvements evaluation. City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 58 The citywide service area approach reflects the operational realities of cultural facilities, which are designed to serve broad community needs rather than localized service areas. Improvements to cultural facilities typically benefit current and future residents across the City and are not tied to specific developments or geographic subareas. For purposes of long-range planning and impact fee analysis, demand for cultural facilities generated by population growth is evaluated on a citywide basis, and growth-related capital costs are allocated proportionately to new development throughout the City. This service area designation ensures consistency with accepted impact fee planning practices and provides a clear framework for evaluating growth-related capital needs, scheduling improvements, and establishing cultural facilities impact fees that equitably distribute costs among future system users. Level of Service The Level of Service (LOS) for cultural facilities is measured in terms of the City’s ability to provide adequate public-use space, programming capacity, and facility access relative to the population served. Cultural facilities LOS reflects the availability and functional capacity of public meeting spaces, community centers, arts and cultural venues, and multi-purpose facilities to accommodate community demand as population increases. Because cultural facility usage is closely tied to population size, demographic composition, and community participation rather than daily consumption rates, LOS is evaluated using a population-based planning approach. This approach assesses whether existing and planned facilities provide sufficient capacity to serve both current residents and future population growth while maintaining acceptable access, functionality, and programming opportunities. Forecasts Population projections indicate that the City of Stockbridge’s population is expected to increase from approximately 36,807 residents in 2025 to 56,647 residents by 2050, representing an increase of 19,840 residents over the planning horizon. This projected growth is expected to increase demand for cultural facilities, including community meeting space, conference facilities, arts and cultural programming, and multi-purpose civic facilities. As population increases, additional public-use facility capacity will be required to maintain acceptable levels of service. These growth-related demands form the basis for identifying future capital improvements necessary to expand cultural facilities capacity and for determining the portion of capital costs attributable to new development. City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 59 Future Costs Future costs for the City of Stockbridge’s cultural facilities are driven by the need to accommodate increased demand for public-use spaces and cultural programming associated with population growth. Growth-related capital improvements are necessary to expand facility capacity, enhance functionality, and ensure that cultural facilities can continue to serve both existing and future residents at acceptable levels of service. Future cultural facility improvements may include, but are not limited to, construction or expansion of multi-purpose community facilities, conference, and meeting centers, cultural and arts facilities, and associated support spaces that increase public-use capacity. Because cultural facilities often serve multiple functions—including civic, educational, and cultural uses—only the portion of capital improvements that expands public-use capacity attributable to new development is considered eligible for impact fee funding. Routine maintenance, operational costs, administrative functions, asset replacement, and improvements required solely to address existing deficiencies or serve current users are excluded from impact fee eligibility. This distinction ensures that impact fees are used exclusively to fund capacity-expanding improvements necessitated by growth, consistent with state impact fee requirements and the principles of rational nexus and proportionality. Cultural Facilities Capital Improvement Categories and Impact Fee Eligibility For purposes of long-range planning and impact fee analysis, cultural facilities capital improvements are categorized based on whether they expand public-use capacity to serve new development or address existing operational or maintenance needs. This classification reflects the shared, citywide nature of cultural facilities and provides a clear framework for determining impact fee eligibility. City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 60 Table 16 - Impact Fee Eligibility Improvement Category Multi-Purpose Community Facilities Conference & Meeting Facilities Cultural & Arts Facilities Support & Administrative Spaces Maintenance & Operations Description Facilities providing public meeting space, community programming, and shared civic uses that expand capacity for future residents Public-access conference and meeting facilities serving community events, educational uses, and civic functions Facilities supporting arts, cultural programming, exhibitions, and performances for public benefit Back-of-house, administrative, or operational areas not directly serving public-use capacity Routine maintenance, repairs, equipment replacement, and operational costs Impact Fee Eligibility Eligible (Partial) Eligible (Partial) Eligible (Partial) Not Eligible Not Eligible Cultural Facilities Impact Fee Calculation Methodology The cultural facilities impact fee is calculated using a growth-based methodology that allocates the cost of capacity-expanding cultural facility improvements proportionately to new development, consistent with the City of Stockbridge’s adopted Level of Service (LOS) framework and projected population growth through the 2050 planning horizon. The methodology is designed to ensure a clear rational nexus, proportionality, and benefit relationship between new development and the capital improvements funded through impact fees. Only the portion of capital costs attributable to expanding public-use facility capacity to serve future residents is included in the impact fee calculation. Because cultural facilities serve the community at large and function as shared civic assets, future demand for cultural facilities is evaluated on a citywide basis using projected population growth rather than parcel-specific thresholds. Methodology Framework The cultural facilities impact fee calculation follows these steps: 1. Identify Growth Driver Demand for cultural facilities is driven primarily by population growth and increased participation in civic, cultural, and community activities. 2. Identify Growth-Related Capital Improvements Capital improvements that expand public-use capacity—such as conference centers, multi-purpose facilities, and cultural and arts centers—are identified as growth-related. City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 61 3. Determine Impact Fee Eligibility Percentage Because many cultural facilities serve both existing and future residents, only the portion of each project attributable to growth is included in the impact fee calculation. 4. Allocate Costs to New Development The growth-related share of eligible capital costs is allocated proportionately to projected population growth. 5. Convert to Per-Unit Fee Growth-related costs are converted to a per-resident and per-dwelling-unit impact fee using the City’s assumed average household size of 2.5 persons per dwelling unit. Impact Fee Eligibility – Selected Cultural Facility Projects Based on the eligibility criteria established above, the following projects are appropriate for inclusion in the Cultural Facilities Capital Projects Cost Table. Table 17 - Cultural Facilities Capital Projects Cost Item Project Total Estimated Cost Impact Fee Eligibility Growth-Related Cost 25 Merle Manders Conference Center $2,000,000 50% $1,000,000 29 Multi-Purpose Facility (Youth/Senior) $10,000,000 60% $6,000,000 30 Cultural Arts Center $34,000,000 50% $17,000,000 Eligibility Rationale for Cultural Facilities The Merle Manders Conference Center provides public meeting space, civic programming, and community event capacity that serves both existing residents and future population growth. Because the facility accommodates general public use and supports expanded civic activity associated with new development, a portion of its capital cost is reasonably attributable to growth. However, because the facility also serves the existing population, only a partial share of the total project cost is considered eligible for impact fee funding, reflecting the shared benefit between current and future residents. The proposed Multi-Purpose Facility intended to serve youth, seniors, and the general public represents a capacity-expanding investment directly related to anticipated population growth. As the City’s population increases, demand for community programming, recreational activities, educational services, and public gathering space will similarly increase. This facility is designed to expand public-use capacity beyond existing levels and is therefore substantially attributable to City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 62 growth. A majority portion of the project cost is considered impact fee eligible, with the remaining share allocated to existing residents who will also benefit from the facility. The proposed Cultural Arts Center is intended to function as a major civic and cultural amenity serving residents citywide and, potentially, the broader region. While future population growth will increase demand for cultural programming, arts education, and public events, the facility will also provide immediate benefit to the existing population. As a result, only a portion of the project’s capital cost is attributed to growth-related demand. The assigned impact fee eligibility percentage reflects the shared nature of the benefit while recognizing the role of future development in driving the need for expanded cultural facility capacity. Cultural Facilities Impact Fee Summary (Planning Horizon: 2025–2050) Projected Population Growth: • 19,840 residents Total Estimated Eligible Cultural Facilities Capital Cost: • $24,000,000 Calculated Impact Fee • Per Resident: $24,000,000 ÷ 19,840 residents ≈ $1,210 per resident • Per Dwelling Unit (2.5 persons/unit): $1,210 × 2.5 ≈ $3,025 per dwelling unit Resulting Cultural Facilities Impact Fee: Approximately $3,025 per dwelling unit Based on projected population growth of 19,840 residents between 2025 and 2050, the City of Stockbridge has identified approximately $24.0 million in growth-related capital improvements for cultural facilities that are eligible for impact fee funding. These costs reflect the portion of cultural facility investments attributable to new development and necessary to maintain acceptable levels of civic, cultural, and community service capacity as the population increases. Dividing the total eligible capital cost by projected population growth results in an estimated cost of approximately $1,210 per resident. Applying the City’s assumed average household size of 2.5 persons per dwelling unit yields a calculated cultural facilities impact fee of approximately $3,025 City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 63 per dwelling unit. This impact fee ensures that future development contributes its proportionate share toward the expansion of cultural facilities needed to serve growth, while avoiding the use of impact fees to fund facilities or capacity that primarily benefit existing residents. Relationship to Impact Fee Schedule – Cultural Facilities The growth-related costs identified for Cultural Facilities represent the portion of capital improvements necessary to expand public-use facility capacity to accommodate projected population growth through the 2050 planning horizon. These costs are derived from the City’s adopted Level of Service framework, projected population growth, and a citywide capacity-based planning approach. The eligible share of cultural facility improvement costs forms the basis for calculating the cultural facilities component of the City of Stockbridge’s impact fee schedule. By allocating only those costs attributable to new development, the impact fee program ensures that future growth contributes its proportionate share toward cultural facility expansion, while avoiding the use of impact fees to fund existing deficiencies, routine maintenance, or operational costs that primarily benefit existing residents. Cultural Facilities Capital Projects and Costs Based on the Level of Service (LOS) analysis and projected population growth through the 2050 planning horizon, the City of Stockbridge has identified a set of cultural facilities capital improvements necessary to maintain acceptable service levels as growth occurs. Cultural facilities include civic, cultural, educational, and community-oriented facilities that provide public access to cultural programming, historical preservation, recreation, learning, and civic engagement. Consistent with impact fee requirements, only those capital improvements that expand facility capacity or accessibility to serve future residents are considered eligible for impact fee funding. Improvements that primarily address maintenance, rehabilitation, or operational needs of existing facilities are excluded.

This City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 65 cost forms the basis for calculating the cultural facilities component of the City’s impact fee schedule and ensures compliance with the principles of rational nexus, proportionality, and benefit. Cultural Facilities Impact Fee Calculation Methodology The cultural facilities impact fee is calculated using a growth-based methodology that allocates the cost of capacity-expanding cultural facility improvements proportionately to new development, consistent with the City of Stockbridge’s adopted Level of Service (LOS) framework and projected population growth through the 2050 planning horizon. The calculation is based on the total cost of growth-related cultural facilities capital projects identified in the Capital Improvements Element. Cultural facilities included in this analysis consist of public facilities that provide cultural, educational, civic, and community-oriented services, including libraries, multipurpose community centers, cultural and arts facilities, museums, civic recreation facilities, and other publicly accessible cultural amenities. Only capital improvements that expand facility capacity or accessibility to serve future residents are included. Routine maintenance, rehabilitation, and operational costs are excluded from impact fee eligibility. Growth Basis Population projections indicate that the City of Stockbridge’s population is expected to increase from 36,807 residents in 2025 to 56,647 residents by 2050, representing a projected growth of 19,840 residents over the planning horizon. This projected increase in population forms the basis for allocating the cost of growth-related cultural facilities. Total Growth-Related Capital Cost Based on the Cultural Facilities Capital Projects Cost Table, the total estimated cost of growthrelated cultural facilities improvements is: • Total Growth-Related Capital Cost: $24,000,000 Per-Resident Cost Calculation The per-resident cost of cultural facilities expansion is calculated by dividing the total growthrelated capital cost by the projected population increase: Formula: City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 66 • Total Growth-Related Capital Cost ÷ Projected Population Growth = Cost per Resident Calculation: • $24,000,000 ÷ 19,840 residents ≈ $1,210 per resident Per-Dwelling Unit Impact Fee Calculation To express the cultural facilities impact fee on a per-dwelling-unit basis, the per-resident cost is multiplied by the City’s assumed average household size of 2.5 persons per dwelling unit, consistent with other impact fee calculations in this Capital Improvements Element. Formula: • Cost per Resident × Average Household Size = Cost per Dwelling Unit Calculation: • $1,210 × 2.5 persons per unit ≈ $3,025 per dwelling unit Calculated Cultural Facilities Impact Fee Based on the methodology above, the cultural facilities impact fee is calculated at approximately: • • $1,210 per resident, or $3,025 per dwelling unit Methodology Summary and Compliance This methodology ensures that: • • • • Only growth-related, capacity-expanding cultural facilities are funded through impact fees Costs are allocated in proportion to projected population growth Existing residents are not charged for facilities needed to serve new development The impact fee complies with the principles of rational nexus, proportionality, and benefit, as required by state impact fee law The cultural facilities impact fee provides a fair and predictable mechanism for ensuring that future development contributes its proportionate share toward maintaining access to cultural, civic, and community facilities as the City of Stockbridge grows through 2050. Maximum Impact Fee Schedule – Cultural Facilities City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 67 The table below summarizes the maximum road improvement impact fees that may be assessed in Stockbridge based on the analyses presented in this chapter. These fees are either (1) derived by multiplying the relevant calculated impact fee for non-residential land uses by the number of persons (“Employees”) per unit of measure for a given land use or (2) directly established for residential land uses based on the calculated impact fee for dwelling units. Non-Residential Impact Fee: = Number of Employees per Unit of Measure × Calculated Impact Fee per Impervious Acre = Number of Employees per Unit of Measure × $1,210 Residential Impact Fee: = Calculated Impact Fee per Dwelling Unit = $3,02 City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 68 ROADS The Capital Improvement Element (CIE) is intended to set and uphold an adopted Level of Service (LOS) for the City’s roadway network, ensuring that transportation facilities are adequate to serve current and future growth. Establishing LOS standards creates a clear, objective framework for evaluating system performance and guiding the prioritization, funding, and delivery of roadway improvements that promote safety, efficiency, and community mobility. Introduction The road network in the City of Stockbridge plays a central role in supporting economic vitality, quality of life, and long-term growth. Well-connected and well-maintained streets enable residents to access jobs, schools, healthcare, and recreational amenities, while also facilitating the movement of goods and services that sustain local businesses. The road system shapes development patterns by influencing where housing, commercial activity, and civic uses locate, thereby affecting land values and redevelopment potential. In Stockbridge, where local corridors also serve regional travel demands, roadway capacity, safety, and multimodal accommodations are critical to balancing neighborhood livability with economic competitiveness. Strategic investment in the transportation network therefore supports not only mobility, but also equitable access, public safety, and the City’s broader goals for sustainable and resilient community development. Service Area The service area for these road projects encompasses the entire city, as the projects function as components of the citywide system of principal streets and thoroughfares that provide primary access to properties throughout the community. All new developments rely on this interconnected network for mobility and access. Accordingly, improvements made to any segment of the system to address congestion or increase capacity will enhance overall system performance and benefit development citywide. Level of Service Calculation Methodology Roadway improvement projects benefit both existing and future users by reducing congestion and correcting capacity deficiencies, thereby improving overall traffic operations. Because development anticipated through 2050 will account for a measurable share of total traffic in City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 69 that horizon year, new growth is appropriately assigned a proportionate share of the costs associated with these roadway improvements. The impacts of traffic not generated within Stockbridge but traveling through the city are partially offset by state and federal transportation funding. Consequently, the portion of project costs funded by the City of Stockbridge reasonably corresponds—and is roughly proportional—to the roadway impacts created by Stockbridge residents, commuters traveling into the city for employment, and visitors accessing the city for commercial, business, or recreational purposes. On this basis, the roadway impact fee is derived by allocating Stockbridge’s share of roadway improvement costs across the total volume of traffic generated within the city in 2045, including both existing development and future growth, to establish a per-trip cost. This pertrip cost is then applied exclusively to trips generated by new development. At the time a building permit is issued, the fee for an individual land use is calculated by applying the per-trip cost to the estimated number of trips generated by the proposed development, ensuring that new growth pays only its fair and proportionate share of roadway improvements from which it benefits. The standard for Level of Service (LOS) for roadways and intersections is based on a lettergrade system that rates a given road within the range of service from “A” to “F.” Each letter in the system is defined in the official Highway Capacity Manual (Transportation Research Board, 1985) and represents a category of quality of service, as described below: • A: free-flow conditions, excellent mobility, a high degree of driver freedom, and a superior level of comfort • B: stable traffic flow with a slight reduction in maneuvering freedom; desired travel speeds are largely unaffected. • C: stable flow; marks the onset of noticeable interactions among users; more constrained speed selection and maneuverability; declining overall comfort • D: high traffic density with stable flow; travel speeds and maneuvering freedom are significantly restricted, resulting in reduced comfort; greater potential for operational deficiencies • E: operating conditions at or near roadway capacity; low, relatively uniform speeds; extremely limited maneuverability; poor comfort; high driver frustration; unstable traffic operations City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 70 • F: forced or breakdown flow conditions; traffic demand exceeds roadway capacity; formation of queue; increased frequency of stop-and-go traffic; arrival flows that exceed discharge capacity Factors contributing to the traffic volume that impacts the Level of Service include roadway access, topography, size, type, and signalization. Roadway capacity is highly correlated with the Level of Service that a given roadway provides. The following table presents the LOS standard applicable to each of the road improvement projects that are eligible for the impact fee program, along with some other relevant project details. It is important to note that while the City of Stockbridge has several other transportational projects, only those that directly increase roadway capacity and reduce congestion are included in the following table, according to the standards as provided by the Georgia Department of Community Affairs. Table 19 - Roadway Capacity Data Roadway Existing Classification Facility Type Build LOS Existing Build Existing At Build Project Description Facility Type Standard Year Year Capacity Capacity Country Club Dr - Traffic and Safety Enhancements Local 4 lanes (undivided) 3 lanes (undivided) E 2025 2026 1,200 1,000 Rock Quarry Rd - Extension Minor Arterial N/A 2 lanes (undivided) N/A 2025 2027 0 7,152 Rock Quarry Rd - Widening Minor Arterial 2 lanes (undivided) 4 lanes (divided) D 2025 2026 12,130 25,630 For impact fee purposes, the City has established its Level of Service (LOS) for road improvements at LOS “D” or LOS “E.” Road improvement projects provide proportional benefits to both current and future traffic, as relieving over-capacity conditions improves mobility for all users. For example, projected growth through 2050 will represent a defined share of total traffic, and new development is responsible for covering that portion of road improvement costs. The cost impact of traffic originating outside Stockbridge is partially offset by state and federal funding. Therefore, the net cost of road projects attributable to Stockbridge reflects, in approximate proportion, the travel impact of local residents, commuters, and visitors traveling to the city for work, shopping, business, or recreation. Accordingly, the road impact fee is calculated by dividing Stockbridge’s share of improvement costs by total traffic generated within the city in 2050, resulting in a cost-per-trip rate. This rate is then applied to the trips generated by new development. For individual land uses, the costper-trip is multiplied by the expected number of trips associated with the development at the City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 71 time of building permit issuance, ensuring that new growth pays its fair share of the road improvements that serve it. Level of Service Future demand for road improvement projects is projected using the anticipated growth in the City’s day-night population from 2025-2050. Since the City’s road network is equally available to all members of the day-night population regardless of location, the City is the single service area for forecasting the Level of Service (LOS) for road improvement projects. As population increases, demand for roadway capacity, traffic circulation, and overall transportation system performance is expected to rise proportionally. The City has established roadway LOS to define the minimum acceptable operating conditions necessary to maintain a safe and efficient transportation network. Based on existing conditions, portions of the roadway system currently operate below the adopted LOS standards, indicating capacity constraints under present traffic volumes. Applying the adopted LOS standards to the projected 2050 population provides a basis for estimating future transportation demand and identifying growth-related roadway capital improvements needed to increase capacity, enhance connectivity, and maintain acceptable levels of service as population growth occurs. Level of Service Forecast Calculation Methodology This section outlines the Level of Service (LOS) Forecast Calculation Methodology used to evaluate roadway conditions and identify future transportation needs within the Capital Improvements Element (CIE) Plan. The methodology provides a consistent, data-driven approach for assessing existing and projected traffic conditions, accounting for anticipated growth, travel demand, and roadway capacity. By establishing how LOS is measured and forecast over the planning horizon, this framework supports transparent decision-making and helps ensure that proposed road improvement projects are appropriately timed, prioritized, and scaled to maintain adopted service standards as development occurs. The City of Stockbridge forecasted its expected Level of Service for 2050 by estimating the increase in the number of primary trip ends generated by new residential and non-residential developments. Transportation engineers quantitatively recognize increased traffic added to a network in terms of “trips,” a route with an origin and a destination, respectively known as “trip ends.” The term “primary trip” is distinguished from two other trip types: pass-by trips and diverted trips, whose descriptions are included below: City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 72 • Primary Trip: A route whereby a vehicle travels from its original beginning to its intended destination. Driving from home to work is a common example of a primary trip. • Pass-By Trip: A route whereby a vehicle travels from its original beginning to its intended destination and stops at an intermediate location during its journey. Driving from home to work while stopping for gas along the way is a common example of a pass-by trip. • Diverted Trip: An alternative route to the usual, primary route that a vehicle travels between its origin and destination. The vehicle also stops at an intermediate location along the alternative route. It is important to note that only primary trip ends add vehicles to the road network. The other trip types describe the same set of vehicles travelling from their original beginning to their intended destination. As such, these trip types result in different trips that are irrelevant for predicting future traffic congestion. For instance, a trip consisting of stops at home, a daycare facility, and work has two primary trip ends—i.e., from home to work—and two pass-by or diverted trip ends— i.e., the daycare facility as an intermediary location between home and work, respectively. In this case, counting the primary trip alongside the latter trips as an estimate for traffic congestion inflates the aggregate trip count, since the latter trips consider the same vehicle and its primary trip ends. Estimating the increase in the number of primary trip ends generated by new developments necessitates the further categorization of trip types—that is, residential trips and nonresidential trips. Residential trips have either its original beginning or the intended destination as a residential location, whereas non-residential trips have a non-residential location as either. This dichotomy allows the City of Stockbridge to forecast the amount of traffic generated by future increases in the number of housing units—i.e., generated residential trips—and the number of employees—i.e., generated non-residential trips. Collectively, these generated trips facilitate the estimation of the total number of trips generated from new development. Residential Trip Generation The Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) calculates average trip generation rates that differentiate between “single-family detached housing” and “apartments.” The categories of housing that the City of Stockbridge records broadly include “single-family units” and “multifamily units,” which are shown in the table below: City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 73 Table 20- Residential Units by Type (2025-2050) Total Number Total Increase Total Number of Units (2025) Percent (2025-2050) of Units (2050) Single-Family 9,756 63.78% 5,344 15,100 Multi-Family 5,540 36.22% 3,035 8,575 Total 15,296 1 8,379 23,675 (Table X) The 2025 breakdown of housing unit types by category are drawn from a recent intradepartmental survey of housing units, dated as of December 2025. All other figures were generated as either (1) proportions of other figures in the table or (2) figures from past tables. The table reveals that the City of Stockbridge will experience an increase of 8,379 housing units, with many new units classified as “single-family”. The table below shows that amount of traffic generated by the city’s current housing options, along with the amount of growth that will be generated in 2050. Table 21- Residential Trip Generation (2025-2050) ADT Trip 2025 2025 ADT 2050 2050 ADT Increase % New Growth Ends Units Trip Ends Units Trip Ends (2025-2050) Trip Ends Single-Family 9.52 9,756 92,878 15,100 143,752 50,874 Multi-Family 6.65 5,540 36,841 8,575 57,024 20,183 Total 15,296 129,719 23,675 200,776 71,057 54.78% The Average Daily Trip (ADT) includes total trips to and from work on a normal weekday and is based on data gathered from the ITE across multiple traffic studies, 350 for single-family and 86 for apartments. The term “trip end” refers to traffic leaving from and coming to a housing unit. By 2050, the City of Stockbridge expects that the future increase in trip ends will represent 54.78% of all residential trips generated in the city. Non-Residential Trip Generation Since detailed information on business types within the city is not readily available, estimating traffic generated by businesses in Stockbridge is more complex than for residential trips. Additionally, while employment forecasts exist, data on floor area by specific use is limited. City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 74 An alternative method for calculating non-residential trips is to use the average trips generated per employee. These trips include not only those made by employees but also trips by customers and other individuals who visit, support, or are served by the business in some capacity. Like the former method, relevant data, and other associated resources—such as ITE data for individual uses that relate to the total number of trips generated per employee—are limited. However, other planning teams from other municipalities that have a heavy mixed-use developmental emphasis, such as the City of Atlanta and the City of Savannah, have already performed similar computations, and thus, the City of Stockbridge has adopted the ITE trips per employee figures and subsequent average ADT values for the non-residential categories of “Commercial & Services” and “Industrial,” respectively, from the City of Savannah. The table below highlights this adoption, displaying average ADT values of 23.95 for trips involving commercial use and 4.21 for trips involving industrial use. From these totals, trips generated by city residents commuting to and from work are subtracted, as these have already been accounted for in the residential trip generation calculations. The table also demonstrates with the growth of the number of employees from 2025 to 2050 and its subsequent growth in trip ends.

It is important to note that the percentage of each use type that is considered “primary” has been adopted from former, similar analyses conducted by the City of Savannah due to the unavailability of relevant data and the identicality of the respective urban planning emphases of the Cities of Savannah and Stockbridge.

Therefore, the equitable cost to the City for providing road improvements to meet the current and prospective traffic demand cannot exceed this percentage. Relationship to Capital Improvements and Impact Fees The following table outlines the costs of roadway improvement projects, including the respective portions of costs that will be covered by impact fee funds. The percentage featured under the “% Impact Fee Eligible” column is the percentage of prospective traffic congestion that is attributable to new growth from 2025 to 2050. The total city cost of the projects are dated as of 2025 and are in the City of Stockbridge’s approved FY2026 budget. The Net Present Value (NPV) of the project is determined by considering the cumulative inflationary costs, as defined by the Engineering News-Record (ENR) Construction Cost Index (CCI), from 2025 to the City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 76 expected year of completion. The “New Cost Growth” is the dollar amount of the NPV that is eligible for impact fees for a given project. In total, approximately $4,427,852.70 worth of prospective road improvement projects is eligible for impact fees. Table 25 - Stockbridge Road Improvement Projects with Eligible Cost Year of Net Present % Impact Fee New Growth Project Description Total City Cost Completion Value (NPV) Eligible Cost Country Club Dr - Traffic and Safety Enhancements $ 1,000,000.00 2026 $ 1,010,937.11 62.38% $ 630,579.89 Rock Quarry Rd - Extension $ 2,000,000.00 2027 $ 2,043,987.70 62.38% $ 1,274,953.23 Rock Quarry Rd - Widening $ 4,000,000.00 2026 $ 4,043,748.46 62.38% $ 2,522,319.57 Total $ 7,000,000.00 $ 7,098,673.27 $ 4,427,852.70 Scheduling Individual Costs The total estimated cost of each project in the table will be covered during the same year as its year of completion. Thus, the widening of Rock Quarry Road and the installation of traffic and safety enhancements along Country Club Drive will receive impact fee funds during 2026, and the extension of Rock Quarry Road will receive its designated funds during 2027. Future Costs Credit Calculation A credit is calculated for this category of public facilities. The calculation assumes that the City will fund its share of non-eligible road improvement costs through General Fund revenues. As a result, the credit is based on the future property tax contributions to the General Fund attributable to new development. For purposes of calculating this credit, the total non-eligible project costs are presented in the year in which the expenditures are expected to be incurred.

These figures account for the fact that some projects included in the impact fee schedule are not 100% impact fee eligible—which occurs because certain projects will also serve existing development, requiring alternative revenue sources, such as property taxes, to fund the portion of project costs attributable to that development. Under typical circumstances, revenues generated by existing development would be used to pay its proportionate share of these costs. However, as new growth and development come to the City of Stockbridge, it will also generate tax revenue. To the extent that new development contributes tax revenues toward non-eligible portions of impact fee projects, a credit must be applied to reflect this allocation and to ensure that new growth does not pay more than its proportionate share of total project costs. City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 78 The table below shows the estimated tax base projections for the City of Stockbridge, according to the prospective total value added by impact fee eligible new growth and development through 2050. Homestead and other exemptions, along with employment increases in job types that are not subjected to impact fees, are not considered in the following figures.

The table below summarizes these values; the assessed value per housing unit is $54,659.00, and the assessed value per employee is $35,276.88. City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 79 Table 28 -Residential and Non-Residential Assessed Values per Unit New Housing Value: Assessed Value per Housing Unit Non-Residential Value: Assessed Value per Employee $ 54,659.00 $ 35,276.88 The first figure considers both single-family and multi-family residential units. An inventory of 19 houses in the City of Stockbridge was sold in the past year according to qPublic, generating a total investment of $6,186,200 and an investment-per-unit total of $325,589, as shown in the following formula: • Investment per Single-Family Unit [Stockbridge] = Total Investment (2024-2025) ÷ Number of Houses Sold (2024-2025) = $6,186,200 ÷ 19 houses = $325,589 per Single-Family Unit [Stockbridge] In addition, the average growth in the number of total units between 2024-2025 (1,097 units) was multiplied by the estimated proportion of these units that are multi-family (78.91%) to yield an approximate total of 829 multi-family units in the City of Stockbridge. The average investment per multifamily unit was estimated by computing a ratio between the current population of the City of Stockbridge and that of a city with a comparable residential emphasis in mixed-use developments and balanced neighborhoods—i.e., City of Savannah—and applying it to the latter’s average investment per multi-family unit. The key assumption of this formulation is that the average investment per multi-family unit within a given municipality is directly proportional to its population scale. Below is the formula that illustrates this mathematical workflow: • Investment per Multi-Family Unit [Stockbridge] = Investment per Multi-Family Unit [Standard] × (Population [Stockbridge] ÷ Population [Standard]) = $186,173 per Multi-Family Unit × (38,607 residents ÷ 148,808 residents) = $48,301.04 per Multi-Family Unit [Stockbridge] Collectively, the total investment produced an average per-unit tax assessment value of $54,659.00 at 40% across both single-family and multi-family units. City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 80 Non-residential value is calculated as the assessed value of all commercial, industrial, and utility property in the 2025 City Digest, per employee. Given the city’s approximate 24,000 jobs, strong commercial presence, significant daily in-commuting, moderate total population, and heavy emphasis on mixed use developments; the City reasons that roughly 45% of the total assessed value of all parcels in the City are non-residential. This percentage is applied to the City’s 2025 budgeted property tax revenue ($7,189,056) to generate an estimate for nonresidential tax revenue received in 2025. The following equation uses this value, along with city millage (3.77) and the number of employees in 2025 (24,325) to produce the assessed value per employee, which totaled $35,276.88 per employee. • Assessed Value per Employee = (2025 Nonresidential Tax Revenue × 1,000 ÷ Millage) ÷ (2025 Number of Employees) = ((2025 Tax Revenue × Non-Residential Percent of Total Assessed Value) × 1,000 ÷ Millage) ÷ (2025 Number of Employees) = (($7,189,056 × 0.45) × 1,000 ÷ 3.77) ÷ (24,325) = $35,276.88 per employee The value added is expressed as assessed value, which, as noted above, equals 40 percent of market value. Property tax millage rates are applied to assessed value rather than appraised value, and the assessed values are applied to new growth to calculate the annual increases in assessed value attributable to growth. The table below projects the City’s overall property tax base through 2045 by combining the base-year tax digest with the annual increases in assessed property value generated by new growth and development. The values in the table are expressed in current dollars and do not reflect future reassessments or the effects of inflation on subsequent property sales.

The annual contribution of new growth to the tax base is used to calculate the credit for property taxes paid by new development toward portions of impact fee projects that are not eligible for impact fee funding. These percentages are applied to projects categorized under public safety and roadway service, as impact fees for these facility categories are assessed on both residential and nonresidential development. Because parks and recreation impact fees are assessed exclusively on residential uses, it becomes necessary to consider the net increase in taxable value attributable to residential properties only. Below is a table demonstrating these increases.

To determine this cost, the credit for anticipated future property tax revenues is subtracted from the total cost eligible for impact fees, yielding a “net eligible road project cost.” Dividing this net cost by the projected increase in primary trip ends from new growth and development produces the “net impact cost per trip end.” An administrative fee of three percent is added to this net impact cost, resulting in the maximum impact cost per trip end. This value serves as the basis for calculating impact fees across all land use categories.

These fees are calculated by multiplying the average number of trip ends by land use, as defined in the Trip Generation manual from the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE), by the average cost per trip end, i.e., $18.41. City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 84 PUBLIC SAFETY Introduction Public safety services within the City of Stockbridge are provided through the Stockbridge Police Department (SPD). The SPD has only one precinct subdivided into four zones: Zones 1901, 1902, 1903, and 1904. The department also has a headquarters located near the city’s downtown region and a new substation that is expected to open in December 2025. Service Area The City of Stockbridge is the sole service area that provides public safety services. All residents and workers in the city have equal access to such services; thus, one service area suffices. Level of Service The “Level of Service” (LOS) is a quantitative measure that defines the relationship between current service capacity and service demands and projects future infrastructural needs for the future population of relevant geographical area. The LOS for public safety in the City of Stockbridge is determined by inventorying the total square footage of all facilities used by SPD, along with the total number of the department’s specialized vehicles that are used to serve the city’s day-night population. The following table records the total inventory, and Table 32 shows the calculations used to determine the LOS. Table 32- SPD Current Inventory: Buildings and Specialized Vehicles (2025) Type Building Building Patrol Vehicles Specialized Vehicles Total Square Footage Total Partrol Vehicles Total Specialized Vehicles Description Police Headquarters Police Substation Patrol Vehicles Location Square Footage Number 4545 North Henry Blvd 16800 1046 Chen Pkwy STE A 1400 79 Enclosed Equipment Trailer 1 18,200 79 1 City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 85 Forecasts Table 33 presents a simple methodology for forecasting prospective growth in the City of Stockbridge for SPD facilities and vehicles. Table 33- SPD Level of Service and New Growth Demand (2025-2050) Current Service Population Facilities Level of Service Service Area Growth New Growth Demand Square Foot of Existing Square Day-Night Floor Feet Population Area per Person 18,200 76,428 0.2381 Day-Night Square Foot of New Population Floor Area Increase to 2050 Completed 43,706 10,407 Existing Patrol Vehicles Day-Night Population Vehicle per Person 79 76,428 0.001034 Day-Night Population New Specialized Increase to 2050 Vehicles Needed 43,706 45.177 Existing Specialized Day-Night Vehicles Population Vehicle per Person 1 76,428 0.000013 Day-Night Population New Specialized Increase to 2050 Vehicles Needed 43,706 0.572 The total square footage of all facilities used by the SPD is divided by the 2025 day-night population to generate an estimate for the number of square feet that “serves” each citizen within the city. Then, this ratio is projected into 2050 by multiplying the ratio by the difference of the prospective 2025 day-night population from the current one, thus yielding an estimated required growth of roughly 10,407 square feet across all PD facilities. An identical methodology is also applied to the number of existing patrol vehicles and specialized vehicles; a ratio relative to the current day-night population is calculated and then multiplied by the prospective increase in day-night population by 2050 to yield approximations of 45.18 more patrol vehicles and 0.57 more specialized vehicles. Since only whole vehicles can be purchased, the quantity is rounded up to demonstrate that the impact fees may cover the costs of purchasing 45 patrol vehicles, along with 17% of the cost of another patrol vehicle and 57% of the cost of a specialized vehicle. City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 86 The building area required to meet the growth of the city’s prospective day-night population— that is, 10,407—is 100% eligible for impact fees. The square footage may be allocated across future projects that increase building area, which includes the following: construction of a new building, expansion of an existing building, and replacement of an existing building. It is important to note that in the case of replacing an existing building, impact fees would only cover the difference in square footage between the former and new buildings. For instance, if SPD replaced its police headquarters with a building that is 20,00 square feet, then only the difference in square footage—1,800 square feet—is impact fee eligible. Future Costs There are four categories of prospective costs: those for the development of an exterior car port and storage building for the police headquarters, those for additional building area, those for patrol vehicles, and those for specialized vehicles. The estimated cost for the first category in 2025 dollars is already outlined in the city’s proposed FY2026 budget, and the estimated cost of expanding existing buildings is based on average cost used by the City of Milton, Georgia, for the same category. Vehicle costs are based on prevailing rates for similar vehicles purchased by other Georgia municipalities like Savannah and Milton.

Because the exact timing of construction for the additional building area and the acquisition of vehicles needed to serve future demand has not been scheduled, an average implementation year of 2035 is assumed. This assumption reflects that some City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org Commented [VG2]: 30% in budget since 2022. and forecast future years through 2030. reference the budget 87 improvements will occur earlier at lower cost, while others will occur later at higher cost, with the effects balancing over time. The NPV of impact-fee-eligible building costs is calculated by escalating current cost estimates to the average year of 2035 using the Engineering NewsRecord 10-year average Building Cost Inflation (BCI) rate and then discounting those projected costs back to present value using the net discount rate. The NPV of vehicle costs is calculated using the same methodology, except that current vehicle cost estimates are escalated using the Consumer Price Index (CPI) rather than BCI and then discounted to present value using the net discount rate. Scheduling Individual Capital Projects Though the exact project details, such as implementation years, cannot be identified with certainty over the next 25 years, the table below does provide a tentative plan of system improvements that draw from the previous table describing the eligibility of projects for impact fees. It is also important to note that the dates will be implemented as the City of Stockbridge adopts its budget each year. Furthermore, the number of facilities and the nature of facility expansions may vary from the figures shown in the following table. Notwithstanding, at least some of the additional building areas and vehicles are eligible for impact fees if they do not exceed their respective thresholds: 10,407 square feet for buildings, 46 patrol vehicles, and one specialized vehicle.

The chart below illustrates this trend, highlighting its sustainable logarithmic pattern: City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 89 Figure 2 - Stockbridge Police Department Yearly Budget (2022-2025) Noting the logarithmic regression model’s strength, as indicated by the nearly perfect Rsquared value, the City can reasonably estimate the budget of the Police Department through 2030.

Then, percent error statistics are generated for each year from 2022-2026, as shown in the rightmost column of the table above. An unweighted average is calculated for the last three years, since these figures do not consider the low-end extreme percent error values from 2022 and 2023 and are, therefore, more City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 90 reliable for estimating the accuracy of the model for future predictions. The average, 4.93%, reveals that the model tends to overestimate the proposed budget by roughly 5%. This trend is subsequently extrapolated onto the future years, and the total proposed budgets for 20272030 are thus estimated. The resulting figures show that the Police Department has a broader financial bandwidth to pay off the cost of the portions of public safety projects that are ineligible to receive impact fee funds. Credit Calculation Due to the presence of a specialized vehicle that is not fully eligible for impact fees, there must be a credit calculation conducted for the “public safety” category. Table 10 demonstrates the anticipated property tax contributions from new growth towards non-eligible costs. Table 37 - New Growth Contribution from Property Taxes Ineligible Property Contribution Funding Tax from Year Required (NPV) Credit New Growth 2035 $ 67,432.289 23.49% $ 15,836.59 In Table 10, the Net Present Value (NPV) is the amount paid from taxes to cover costs that are not eligible for impact fee funding. Due to the uncertainty of the implementation of the impactfee-funded projects, 2035 is designated as the “average” year. It is also important to note that the City assumes that it will its financial obligations toward non-eligible project costs through general fund expenditures. As such, the credit is based on future property tax contributions into the general fund that will be produced by new growth and development. Impact Fee Calculation Cost There are two types of impact fees that the City intends to charge to fund projects involving public safety: (1) the maximum impact fee per day-night person and (2) the average impact fee per housing unit. Table 11 calculates the first figure, based on the anticipated increase in daynight population from 2025 to 2050. City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 91 Table 38 -Cost to Serve New Growth (per Person) Description Total Eligible Cost of Public Safety Projects $ 12,297,929.02 – Credit for Tax Contributions $ (15,836.59) = Total Net Eligible Public Safety Project Costs $ 12,282,092.44 ÷ Day-Night Pop Increase in Service Area (2025-2050) 43,706 = Net Cost per Person $ 281.02 + 3% Administration Fee $ 8.43 = Maximum Impact Fee per Day-Night Person $ 289.45 It is important to note that a 3% administration fee supplements the net impact cost. This fee, added to the net impact cost, yields the maximum impact fee that could be charged per person. The resulting figure will be used to calculate impact fees for all non-residential land uses. For residential uses, on the other hand, Table 12 demonstrates the method used to calculate the average impact fee per housing unit. Table 39 - Calculation of Housing Unit Fee Description Total Residential Population Increase (2025-2050) 19,840 ÷ Day-Night Pop Increase in Service Area (2025-2050) 43,706 = Residential Increase as % of Total Increase 45.3942% Total Net Project Costs $ 12,297,929.02 × Residential Increase = $ 5,582,549.58 ÷ New Housing Units (2025-2050) 8,379 = Net Impact Fee per Housing Unit $ 666.25 + 3% Administration Fee $ 19.99 = Average Impact Fee per Housing Unit $ 686.24 Maximum Impact Fee Schedule – Public Safety The table below summarizes the maximum road improvement impact fees that may be assessed in Stockbridge based on the analyses presented in this chapter. These fees are either (1) derived by multiplying the relevant calculated impact fee for non-residential land uses by the number of persons (“Employees”) per unit of measure for a given land use or (2) directly established for residential land uses based on the calculated impact fee for dwelling units. Non-Residential Impact Fee: = Number of Employees per Unit of Measure × Calculated Impact Fee per Resident = Number of Employees per Unit of Measure × $289.45 City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 92 Residential Impact Fee: = Calculated Impact Fee per Dwelling Unit = $686.24 City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 93 SHORT-TERM WORK PROGRAM The Schedule of Improvements serves as a roadmap for all capital improvement projects to be funded, in whole or in part, by impact fees over the next five years, beginning with the current year. This schedule should reflect any updates to previously listed projects—such as revised cost estimates, changes in funding sources, adjustments to construction timelines, or modifications to project scope. In addition, it must include a new fifth-year projection of improvements to ensure comprehensive planning for projects supported by impact fees.

The financial report does not include information for the current year Capital Improvements An improvement with a useful life of ten years or more, achieved through new construction or other actions, which increases the service capacity of a public facility. Capital Improvement Element (CIE) A component of the Comprehensive Plan that establishes a multi-year schedule of capital projects necessary to maintain adopted Levels of Service (LOS) as growth occurs. Development Impact Fee Act (DIFA) Georgia law (O.C.G.A. §36-71-1 et seq.) authorizing local governments to impose impact fees on new development to recover its proportionate share of the cost of providing public facilities necessary to serve growth. Impact Fees Charges assessed on new development to fund a proportionate share of capital improvements required to maintain adopted service levels. Level of Service (LOS) A measurable standard that defines the relationship between facility capacity and demand, expressed in units such as acres per 1,000 residents (parks), miles per 1,000 residents (trails), or gallons per capita per day (water). Service Area The geographic area within which a public facility provides system-wide benefits and for which impact fees are calculated. For City of Stockbridge, Georgia Capital Improvements Element, 2026 www.stockbridgega.org 99 Stockbridge, most facilities operate on a citywide service area basis. Rational Nexus A principle requiring a clear connection between new development, the need for additional public facilities, and the expenditure of impact fees on those facilities. Proportionality The requirement that impact fees reflect only the share of capital improvement costs attributable to new development, excluding costs for existing deficiencies or routine maintenance. Growth-Related Costs The portion of capital improvement costs necessary to expand system capacity to serve projected population and development growth, as distinguished from costs to remedy existing deficiencies. Net Present Value (NPV) A financial calculation used to adjust future capital costs to present-day dollars, accounting for inflation and discount rates. Applied in estimating long-range impact fee eligibility for projects with uncertain implementation timing. Trip Generation A transportation planning metric estimating the number of vehicle trips produced by a land use type, based on Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) data. Used to calculate roadway impact fees. Credits Financial offsets applied to impact fees to account for other contributions by new development toward non-eligible costs, such as property tax revenues or prior infrastructure investments. Concurrency A planning principle ensuring that public facilities are available at adopted service levels when development occurs, supported by impact fee funding for capacity-expanding improvements.

2026 Resolution to Adopt the Capital Improvements Element (CIE) Amendment CIE Amendment Adoption Purpose of Meeting The meeting requests adoption of Stockbridge’s Capital Improvements Element to guide infrastructure planning. Strategic Infrastructure Planning CIE amendment adoption enables strategic budgeting and scheduling for future city infrastructure and service demands. Local Government Compliance Adopting the CIE ensures compliance with state laws and maintains eligibility for state programs and grants. Community Coordination The City-specific CIE supports coordinated planning across services like parks, safety, and utilities. Purpose of the Request Request for Council Approval Seeking City Council authorization to adopt the Capital Improvements Element as part of the Comprehensive Plan amendment. Transition to City-Specific CIE Moving from Henry County’s plan to a tailored Stockbridge CIE reflecting local priorities and funding needs. Impact Fees and Compliance Adoption of CIE enables lawful implementation of development impact fees supporting sustainable growth. Regulatory Review and Status Approval includes transmitting CIE to state agencies to ensure compliance and maintain Qualified Local Government status. Background and Legal Framework Legal Mandate for CIE Georgia law requires local governments to adopt a Capital Improvements Element for impact fee compliance and planning. Role of Georgia DCA The Georgia Department of Community Affairs sets compliance standards to maintain Qualified Local Government status. Local Planning Needs Stockbridge’s expansion requires a city-specific CIE to address local infrastructure demands and funding priorities. Protection and Transparency The legal framework ensures impact fees fund only growth-related projects and protect the city from legal risks. q The City’s current CIE is still based on the 1993 version and no longer meets today’s state planning standards for impact fee compliance. q Georgia’s Development Impact Fee Act (DIFA) requires every local government to maintain a current, locally adopted CIE within its Comprehensive Plan. q A CIE must include projected infrastructure needs, a five‑year schedule of improvements, and defined funding sources, which mandate updating or amending older CIEs. q Creating a standalone CIE ensures Stockbridge’s plan reflects city‑specific service areas, growth patterns, and capital needs rather than outdated county-level assumptions. q The Atlanta Regional Commission (ARC) and Georgia DCA must review and approve all CIE updates and amendments before adoption, reinforcing the need for an updated, compliant document. Why the City Requires a CIE Amendment What is the Capital Improvements Element Amendment (CIE)? The CIE is the City’s long‑range plan for building and funding major public facilities. It identifies the infrastructure needed to support population and economic growth through 2050. Required by Georgia’s Development Impact Fee Act to implement and collect lawful impact fees. Ensures the City maintains adopted service levels for parks, roads, water, sewer, stormwater, public safety, and cultural facilities The CIE Matters for Stockbridge • Prepares Stockbridge for rapid growth. Our population is projected to increase by 53.9% by 2050, driving demand for roads, parks, utilities, police services, and cultural facilities. The CIE ensures we stay ahead of that growth instead of reacting to it. • Supports the 2022–2023 annexation impacts. The annexation added 5,368 new residents and expanded our service area dramatically. The CIE provides the roadmap to serve these new neighborhoods with proportional infrastructure. • Ensures development pays its fair share. Impact fees generated through an adopted CIE shift the cost of growth away from existing residents—protecting our taxpayers and preventing strain on the General Fund. • Improves roads and mobility citywide. Growth will account for 62.38% of new traffic, making projects like Rock Quarry Road improvements essential. The CIE lets us fund these needs equitably through impact fees. • Strengthens public safety capacity. With projected day‑night population increases of 43,706, SPD will require expanded facilities and additional vehicles. The CIE identifies exactly what is needed and ensures growth contributes to these costs. • Expands trails, parks, and quality‑of‑life amenities. The trail system alone needs 33.5 new miles to meet LOS standards. The CIE allows us to build these improvements using growth-generated revenue. • Maintains our State Qualified Local Government status. Adoption keeps Stockbridge eligible for state grants, partnerships, and impact fee authority The CIE Benefits to Stockbridge • Protects the community from rising taxes. Without an adopted CIE, Stockbridge would have to fund new growth entirely from property taxes, SPLOST, or debt. The CIE ensures new development pays its proportional share. • Delivers better services where residents need them most. From parks to police response times to water reliability, the CIE directs investments that maintain our high service levels as the city grows. • Promotes fairness and transparency. Every capital project is tied to a documented need, cost estimate, and funding source—building public trust in how we plan and spend. • Supports economic development and quality of life. Well-planned infrastructure makes Stockbridge more competitive for new businesses, walkable neighborhoods, cultural amenities, and family-friendly community spaces. • Ensures orderly, responsible growth. The CIE guides project timing so infrastructure is available before development causes strain—not after. 2022–2023 Annexation and Growth Impacts Population Growth from Annexation Stockbridge's population rose by 5,368 residents in 2022, an 18.36% increase due to annexation expanding city limits and services. Infrastructure and Service Demands Rapid growth pressures parks, trails, roads, water, sewer, and public safety systems, requiring updated capital planning. Capital Improvement Element (CIE) Importance Updated CIE is crucial to address capacity gaps, prioritize needs, and secure funding through impact fees amid annexation growth. Future Population Projections By 2050, Stockbridge population is projected to reach approximately 56,647 residents, emphasizing long-term planning needs. Parks and Recreation Enhancements The CIE plans upgrades like athletic fields, trail expansions, and playground improvements to meet service standards and resident needs. CIE Highlights and Infrastructure Categories Trail Network Expansion Trail system needs over 33 miles of expansion by 2050, including projects like Walt Stephens and MLK Sr. Heritage Trail extensions. Water and Sewer Capacity Projected system load increase demands water treatment and sewer upgrades to support population growth by 2050. Roadway and Public Safety Improvements Road widening, pedestrian enhancements, and new public safety facilities address congestion and service demands through 2050. Why Adoption Is Needed Now Legal Compliance and Funding Adoption ensures compliance with state requirements, maintaining Qualified Local Government status and eligibility for grants and loans. Impact Fees and Fiscal Stability Timely adoption allows lawful collection of impact fees, preventing reliance on general funds and minimizing fiscal vulnerabilities. Infrastructure and Growth Planning The CIE integrates demographic data and infrastructure needs into long-term planning, supporting growth management and service delivery. Strategic Coordination and Budgeting Adoption supports interdepartmental coordination and aligns with capital budgeting cycles for effective project scheduling. Resolution Approval Request Council is asked to approve the resolution adopting the City of Stockbridge’s Capital Improvements Element as part of the Comprehensive Plan. Requested Council Action Official Transmittal Authorization Authorization requested to send the adopted CIE and supporting documents to regional and state agencies for required review. Administrative Implementation Approval enables staff to integrate CIE into planning, update schedules, and prepare for reporting and impact fee collection. Ensuring Compliance and Growth Council action ensures compliance with state laws, supports funding for growth, and positions the city for future infrastructure projects.

STOCKBRIDGE READY MIX USA LLC READY MIX USA LLC NAMING OF MARTIN LUTHER KING, JR. WAY: STREET RENAMING OF NORTH LEE STREET AND SOUTH LEE STREET Presented at the City Council Retreat On March 2-4, 2026 By the Community Development Department PURPOSE AND REASONS PURPOSE—The City of Stockbridge proposes to name a street within the Stockbridge City Limits to honor and commemorate the legacy of Martin Luther King, Jr. and his contributions to the heritage of the City. REASONS: 1. To recognize the contributions of Martin Luther King, Jr. to the City of Stockbridge, in addition to already recognizing and commemorating the contributions of Martin Luther King, Sr. 2. To provide a more appropriate and more recently-relevant name to North Lee Street and South Lee Street, which were named after a Confederate General, Robert E. Lee. 3. To provide a more familiar and unifying name to a street which has high visibility due to its location near City Hall and the Amphitheater. AERIAL PHOTO OF THE LEE STREET VICINITY BACKGROUND INFORMATION Martin Luther King, Sr. was born and raised in Stockbridge, and he preached at the historic Floyd Chapel Baptist Church at 104 First Street, where a street plaque was erected in his honor. The City of Stockbridge also honored him by renaming several streets in Downtown Stockbridge, along the railroad tracks (North Berry Street, South Berry Street, and Railroad Street) to “Martin Luther King, Sr. Heritage Trail” on September 14, 2025. The City also placed a commemorative plaque on the exterior wall of City Hall. The Downtown Development Authority has proposed locating a statue of Martin Luther King, Sr. in a City-owned park at 102 South Lee Street, adjacent to the Stockbridge police headquarters. The City desires to further honor and commemorate the King family by naming a City street after Martin Luther King, Jr. ABOUT NORTH LEE STREET AND SOUTH LEE STREET 1. Location--North Lee Street and South Lee Street cross North Henry Boulevard in the center of the City, near the Stockbridge First Baptist Church and the Stockbridge Police Headquarters. 2. Extents--North Lee Street is a two-lane road which extends from North Henry Boulevard northward to Ceresea Drive. South Lee Street is a two-lane road which extends from north Henry Boulevard southward and eastward to Rock Quarry Road. 4. No Changes--With the proposed street renaming, no changes would be made to the configurations of North Lee Street or South Lee Street, or to the zoning of the adjacent properties. 5. Main Street Program--North Lee Street and South Lee Street are located within the boundaries of the City’s Main Street Program. 6. Component Parcels--Sixteen (16) parcels have frontage on North Lee Street and South Lee Street, as are shown on the next two slides, which feature a map and a spreadsheet. PARCEL MAP FOR NORTH LEE STREET AND SOUTH LEE STREET PARCEL SPREADSHEET FOR NORTH LEE STREET AND SOUTH LEE STREET STAFF ANALYSIS STAFF ANALYSIS—The proposed renaming of North Lee Street and South Lee Street to Martin Luther King, Jr. Way would be beneficial to the City of Stockbridge for the following reasons: 1. It would provide a more appropriate name for the streets, in recognition of the more recent legacy and contributions of the Martin Luther King family to the heritage of the City of Stockbridge. 2. It would provide a similar recognition to Martin Luther King, Jr. as the existing street, Martin Luther King, Sr. Heritage Trail, does to Martin Luther King, Sr. 3. It would provide a familiar name to highly visible street within the core of Downtown Stockbridge, City Hall, and the Amphitheater. 4. It would provide a name recognition for a street that is located within the boundaries of the City’s Main Street Program. STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS: 1. Adopt a resolution to rename both North Lee Street and South Lee Street to “Martin Luther King, Jr. Way.” 2.

Councilwoman Gantt noted that the legal fees on Section 1 and 2 of the budget amendment have nothing to do with Mr. Williams’ contract as that item has been budgeted and approved and that monies are budgeted each year, no different from any other year for the amount spent for legal counsel. Councilwoman Gantt has legal counsel if while the discussion of the settlement of the Lee Stuart case was held in Executive Session, could it be discussed in public as to who was in agreement with the settlement, and does not mind do so as the public needs to know what took place.

And if the Mayor didn't know, then he has not been paying attention to what’s been going on in the City because the report consistently said that the City Attorney has been working on, editing, revising and revamping the Charter. Ms. Gantt further stated that she believes this is all has to do with the Mayor not liking a over and over change to the Charter. And the Charter needs to be changed. Mayor Thompson stated that Councilwoman Gantt was making a presumption about the Mayor. Councilwoman Gantt stated that the Mayor has been talking about the Charter and the item and presented was to amend the budget and instead that the Mayor jumped on the City Attorney it was about none of this was about him; not one line item is about the City Attorney. But rather, litigation, the DDA SDS and former Mayor Stuart’s case that the City agreed to settle, and the Mayor about now and trying was the head of and is now trying to figure out why the Mayor is bringing this of it. to make them look crazy when he in fact was a part Councilwoman Gantt asked for the politics to stop tonight.

Councilman Thomas agreed with Councilwoman Gantt and further stated that he and everyone on the Council and including the Mayor, wanted to reemphasize that the Mayor led the charge against charge with the SDS Agreement, and that he led the charge with the Buschman and Steinberg litigation, and asked the Mayor not to sit there and pretend that it was the Council spending this money. Councilman Thomas stated that he was upset about this and that the the DDA, that led the Mayor and Council knows about all of this. Councilman Thomas then excused himself from the dais.

Mr. Williams stated he has suggested multiple times is to revisit the Charter and make it better and to make it a document that withstands the test of time. Mr. Williams stated that as City Attorney, he represented the City and not any of the elected officials and that his goal is to assist City and draft a Charter, not to address various balances individually, of power or allegiances or whatever exists today among the Council, but rather to put in place a Charter for future Councils and future generations of Stockbridge that they can rely on for stability. Mr. Williams noted an earlier comment as to whether or Mayor should preside over meetings and the Mayor Pro Tem not the Mayor presides meetings. likewise presides over meetings in the Mayor's absence. Mr. Williams noted that this process has been memorialized as such and if there was not a problem with Mayor Rudy Kelley or Mayor Lee Stuart presiding, there should not be a problem with Mayor Thompson presiding. And, if there is a The Charter states that the over problem, it needs to be addressed in the Charter. Mr. Williams stated the most important conflict that he has expressed over and over again is the City Council is currently operating as a Council/Manager form of government. However, the Charter states having a Strong Mayor form of government, in which the Mayor has governed himself in that fashion. Mayor Thompson expressed he disagreement in Mr. Williams’ assessment and noted the Charter was clear in regards to the delegation of power. Mayor Thompson stated that the code section for the City Manager appointment states that the Mayor selects the City Manager until it was amended in June of 2014 whereas Mr. Williams’ draft to fire the City Manager, the Mayor copy is a conflict and instead of the Mayor having the power and/or 3 members of Council will have the power to do so. Mayor Thompson stated that Council members have reminded him of this section of the Charter. Mayor Thompson noted that while the City Manager has been delegated powers and duties, he meets with the City Manager on a regular basis and he keeps him abreast and in the loop of the City’s business and that he has not acquiesced to Council/Manager form of government. Mayor Thompson stated to the public their right to vote and elect the Mayor and Council and this proposed form of government removes the Executive branch of government, and he had no input or consideration. Mayor Thompson asked Attorney Williams if he drafted the document himself and suggested that he had been in consultation with members of Council. Mr. Williams responded that he had not been in consultation to any member of the governing body and wanted to make that clear, Mr. Williams further stated that this document is based on the GMA Model Charter and that he has attempted to make modifications to that Charter to mirror as best that he could under the circumstances the way the City currently operates. Mayor Thompson stated that Mr. Williams’ statement was inaccurate and the drafted copy eliminates the Executive branch of the government and gave an example of government. Mayor Thompson further noted that he didn’t agree with the City Attorney not discussing the document with the Mayor & Council or City Manager and essentially determined the form of government himself. Mayor Thompson then stated that he did not appreciate the comments included in the document. September 14, 2015 6:00pm 4640 N. Henry Blvd. Stockbridge, GA 30281 Phone: (770) 389-7900 Councilwoman Gantt noted that this item was brought forward in June 2014 and referenced an email that was sent to the Clerk at the time, Stephanie Tigner to put the Charter Amendment item on the Agenda. Councilwoman Gantt went on to say that there is conflict with the Charter. Litigation of Ray Gibson and Lee Stuart both resulted out of the conflict with the Charter. Councilwoman Gantt noted that the City has ambiguous terms at all times, even with whether or not the Agenda could be amended; the Charter and ordinances have conflicting information. they all attend GMA training, and they have recommendations from the GMA representatives to look into changing the Charter. Gantt Councilwoman stated that received ‘Councilwoman Gantt referenced the City is currently operating in a Council/City Manager form of government and the statement that the Mayor has made where the citizens would be losing power is incorrect. The Organizational Chart remains the same: Voters, Mayor & City Council and the City Manager, and then Department Heads. Nothing changes with Council/Manager form of government and noted this is a popular form of government, the City has been acting in this form of government as we have a City Manager. Councilwoman Gantt noted that every attorney, and investigator has suggested a change to the Charter. Mayor Thompson stated that he just wants to get the facts on the table regarding the form of government and didn’t know who brought the item forward to be in the Charter update book. Councilwoman Gantt stated that she brought the item forward on June 3, 2014 and referenced the email, and Mayor Thompson read the email sent to Stephanie Tigner.

Consideration of an Ordinance to de-annex from the Stockbridge City Limits two parcels within the Manderley Subdivision, representing Phase 9. The request was made by the owners of the two parcels. The Henry County Board of Commissioners adopted a resolution on January 20, 2026 to consent to the de-annexation and allow the parcels to become a part of unincorporated Henry County. The City Council previously approved eight (8) phases of de-annexation for the Manderley Subdivision (Cases DX2024-01 through DX-2024-08). City Staff are now recommending the denial of DX-2026-01 (Henry County's deannexation Case #DE-AX-2025-01) due to State annexation laws which require the denial of de-annexation requests whenever a municipality has any bonded indebtedness. $0.00 DE-ANNEXATION CASE #DX-2026-01 FOR THE MANDERLEY SUBDIVISION, PHASE 9.

Financial Requirements: a. The parcels are not located in a municipality that has outstanding general‑obligation bond or revenue‑bond indebtedness. Summary of Analysis 1. Administrative Compliance • Signed de-annexation application submitted to Henry County (two parcels). • County adopted resolution and transmitted application to the City of Stockbridge. • Verified use of the 100% method of de-annexation. • Application meets statutory procedural requirements. 2. Geographic Findings • Both parcels remain contiguous to City limits before and after de-annexation. • No unincorporated “island” created. • City boundary would shift eastward upon approval. • No impacts to streets, access, or emergency/service vehicle operations. • No identified health, safety, or welfare concerns. Summary of Analysis (continued) 3. Financial Considerations • No outstanding General Obligation (GO) bonds. • Outstanding revenue bonds through blended component units: • Urban Redevelopment Agency (City Hall facility). • Public Facilities Authority (Amphitheater, Cultural Arts Center, public safety facilities). • Bonds are primarily repaid from City revenues. • Revenue-backed obligations may be relevant under Georgia de-annexation statutes. Financial Considerations: Details 1. Revenue Bonds Supporting City Hall (URA Bonds) The City’s Annual Comprehensive Financial Reports indicate that the Urban Redevelopment Agency, a blended component unit, carries long‑term revenue bonds issued for the acquisition, construction, and furnishing of the City Hall facility. These bonds are expressly stated to be repayable almost entirely from City resources. • 2023 ACFR: URA revenue bonds outstanding: $8,015,000 as of 12/31/2023 • 2024 ACFR: URA revenue bonds outstanding: $7,160,000 as of 12/31/2024 • Notes to the Financial Statements describe the URA as a blended unit whose debt “is expected to be repaid almost entirely from the resources of the City.” 2. Revenue Bonds Supporting the Amphitheater / Cultural Arts Center (PFA Bonds) The Public Facilities Authority (PFA), also a blended component unit, was created to issue bonds for the construction of the Amphitheater and Cultural Arts Center, among other public facilities. These obligations likewise rely on repayment from City funding sources. • ACFR Notes: PFA debt is “expected to be repaid almost entirely from the resources of the City.” Financial Considerations: Details (continued) 3. Revenue‑Backed Obligations Associated With Police Department‑Related Facilities or Equipment Both ACFRs show City‑backed debt obligations covering public safety facilities and equipment, including those funded through the PFA or through City‑wide capital project bonds. • 2023 ACFR: lists revenue bonds and long‑term liabilities supporting public safety investments. • 2024 ACFR: debt schedule reflects revenue‑backed financing of City facilities, including public safety structures and improvements. 4. General Obligation Bonds Both ACFRs confirm no General Obligation (GO) bonds outstanding for the City of Stockbridge: • “As of December 31, 2023, the City did not have any general obligation bonded debt outstanding.” • 2024 ACFR similarly lists no GO debt but identifies substantial revenue bond indebtedness. Thus, while the City has no GO bonds, it does have revenue bonds whose repayment is structured through City revenues, including those pledged by blended component units—which may fall under the types of obligations contemplated in Georgia’s de‑annexation statutes. Overall Impact • 8 Phases • 53 Total Parcels • Total 3-Year City Tax Revenue: $165,260 • Mix of Confirmed (Phases 1–3) and Calculated (Phases 4–8) totals Key Takeaway: The cumulative 3-year city tax impact across all phases totals $165,260, with later phases (4–8) accounting for approximately 68% of the total projected revenue loss. Confirmed vs. Calculated 3-Year Tax Revenue by Phase Confirmed Tax Bill Phases Calculated Phases • Phase 1 (DX-2024-01): $18,681 (10 parcels) • Phase 2 (DX-2024-02): $17,770 (9 parcels) • Phase 3 (DX-2024-03): $16,141 (9 parcels) • Subtotal (Confirmed): $52,592 • Phase 4 (DX-2024-04): $39,055 (9 parcels) • Phase 5 (DX-2024-05): $39,183 (8 parcels) • Phase 6 (DX-2024-06): $8,452 (2 parcels) • Phase 7 (DX-2024-07): $12,249 (3 parcels) • Phase 8 (DX-2024-08): $13,729 (3 parcels) • Subtotal (Calculated): $112,668 Recommendation Since all of the de-annexation requirements have not been met, the law states that the Mayor and City Council must disapprove this deannexation request (DX-2026-01). 1 TO: Mayor and City Council FROM: Ryan C. Anderson, Community Development Director Brennen Reilly, GIS Analyst/Planner II CC: Mayor Jayden L. Williams Shawn Edmonson, City Manager Valerie Ross, City Zoning Attorney DATE: March 9th, 2026 SUBJECT: De-Annexation Case #DX-2026-01: Two Properties in the Manderley Subdivision Introduction. The owners of two properties within the Manderley Subdivision submitted a de-annexation application to Henry County Planning & Zoning to request that their properties be de-annexed from the City of Stockbridge. The Manderley Subdivision is located at the western edge of the Stockbridge City Limits, bounded by Walt Stephens Road to the north and Blackall Road to the west. The two properties for DX-2026-01 have 3.022 +/- total acres in Land Lot 25 of District 12. They comprise residential lots in the northeastern portion of the subdivision. Table 1 below provides a list of the two properties by address, parcel number, and owner/applicant.

According to a De-annexation Evaluation Report which was prepared by the Henry County Planning & Zoning Department, Henry County Government received a de-annexation application from the two applicants electronically on January 22, 2026. The applicants used the 100% method for the proposed deannexation. The Department then prepared a De-annexation Evaluation Report for Henry County’s Case #DE-AX-25-01, which recommended the approval of the proposed de- annexation. It stated that the subject property was previously zoned ‘R-1’ (SingleFamily Residential) by Henry County prior to its 2022 annexation into the City of Stockbridge, and that the property would revert back to R-1 upon the successful deannexation of the property from the City back into unincorporated Henry County. The property also had a previous Henry County future land use designation of Low-Density Residential, which allowed a density of up to 2.0 dwelling units per acre. After the completion of the DE-AX-25-01 Evaluation Report, the Henry County Board of Commissioners adopted Henry County Resolution #26-25, dated January 20, 2026, to approve the de-annexation. City of Stockbridge’s Receipt of De-Annexation Application Package. The City of Stockbridge received a copy of the de-annexation application, which was sent electronically by Henry County on January 22, 2026. There was no cover letter included in the package, but the Evaluation Report from Henry County Planning and Zoning did list the included property addresses and parcel numbers. Background on the Manderley Subdivision. The Manderley Subdivision is established and well-developed. Table 2 below lists basic facts about it, and the Appendix contains several pertinent aerial photos and maps.

To the west are several individual City of Stockbridge Community Development; Stockbridge, Georgia (678) 389-7900 3 residential parcels outside of Manderley Subdivision, Blackhall Road, the City Limits Line, and Spivey Lake. The commercial uses are located in the C-1 (Neighborhood Commercial) zoning district. The subdivisions to the south, southeast, and east are located in the PUD (Planned Unit Development) district, while the outlying residential parcels to the west are zoned ‘SR’ (Suburban Residential). Properties west of Blackhall Road, in unincorporated Henry County, are zoned ‘R-1’ (Single-Family Residential for large lots) and ‘RA’ (Residential-Agricultural). Legal Requirements for De-Annexation. The Official Code of Georgia (O.C.G.A.) provides legal requirements for de-annexation in O.C.G.A. Sections 36-131, 36-132, and 36-133. They are summarized in the list below. 1. Administrative Requirements: a. A written, signed application by the owners of no more than ten parcels. b. Adoption of a signed resolution by the county in which the property is located, consenting to the de-annexation. c. Submittal of a copy of the application to the municipality. d. Confirmation by City staff that the procedural requirements for de-annexation have been met by the property owners. e. Verification by City staff that the geographic requirements have been met. f. Approval by the municipality, unless the geographic requirements have not been met. 2. Geographic Requirements: a. At least one of the parcels must abut/be contiguous to the boundaries of the city limits (not separated from the city limits by unincorporated areas, a street, a creek or river, or a railroad). b. No prohibited unincorporated island would be created by the proposed deannexation. c. No detrimental effects to the health, safety, and welfare of the property owners of the area to be de-annexed, or to the area remaining in the municipality (causing the de-annexed area to be cut off from receiving county services due to the lack of a reasonable access to the de-annexed area). 3. Financial Requirements: a. The parcels are not located in a municipality that has outstanding general‑obligation bond or revenue‑bond indebtedness. Analysis of De-Annexation Proposal: 1. Administrative Requirements – The applicants for the proposed DX-2026-01 deannexation submitted a signed de-annexation application form to Henry County, which was for two parcels. After the County’s review, it adopted a signed resolution and sent a copy of the application to the City of Stockbridge. The Planning and Zoning Staff has verified that the acceptable 100 percent method of de-annexation has been used, and that the de-annexation proposal meets the geographic requirements, as are discussed below. 2. Geographic Requirements – From the maps appearing in the Appendix, it is apparent that all of the two parcels within the proposed de-annexation area abut and are contiguous to other parcels within the Stockbridge City Limits, and they would even City of Stockbridge Community Development; Stockbridge, Georgia (678) 389-7900 4 continue to do so if the de-annexation is approved. No prohibited unincorporated island would be created by the proposed de-annexation. Rather, the de-annexed area would be surrounded on one side by other parcels remaining within the City Limits. Whenever a new City Limits Map is prepared, the de-annexed area would push the city limits further east from the resulting boundary created after the approval of DX-2026-01. Further, there would be no alteration of the existing streets or access to them; thus, there do not appear to be any health, safety, or welfare issues in terms of providing needed transportation of County service vehicles or emergency vehicles in reaching the homes of the property owners within the de-annexed area. 3. Financial Requirements – The City’s Annual Comprehensive Financial Reports (ACFRs) indicate that the Urban Redevelopment Agency, a blended component unit, carries long‑term revenue bonds issued for the acquisition, construction, and furnishing of the City Hall facility. These bonds are expressly stated to be repayable almost entirely from City resources. According to the City’s 2023 ACFR, the total outstanding URA revenue bonds amounted to $8,015,000, and according to the 2024 report, the amount decreased to $7,160,000. Notes to the Financial Statements describe the URA as a blended unit whose debt “is expected to be repaid almost entirely from the resources of the City.” Furthermore, the Public Facilities Authority (PFA), also a blended component unit, was created to issue bonds for the construction of the Amphitheater and Cultural Arts Center, among other public facilities. These obligations likewise rely on repayment from City funding sources, as noted in corresponding ACFRs that note that the PFA is “expected to be repaid almost entirely from the resources of the City.” Both ACFRs also show City‑backed debt obligations covering public safety facilities and equipment, including those funded through the PFA or through City‑wide capital project bonds. Namely, the 2023 ACFR lists revenue bonds and long‑term liabilities supporting public safety investments, and the debt schedule of the 2024 ACFR reflects revenue‑backed financing of City facilities, including public safety structures and improvements. Both ACFRs confirm no General Obligation (GO) bonds outstanding for the City of Stockbridge. Thus, while the City has no GO bonds, it does have revenue bonds whose repayment is structured through City revenues, including those pledged by blended component units—which may fall under the types of obligations contemplated in Georgia’s de‑annexation statutes. Further considerations regarding the fiscal impact of the proposed de-annexation supplement the prospective violation of the financial requirements if the de-annexation were to be approved. Specifically, the fiscal impact of (1) the previous eight deannexation phases of the Manderley subdivision from the City of Stockbridge and (2) the proposed de-annexation of the two properties is analyzed. 1. Fiscal Impact Report: Residential De-Annexations of Manderley Subdivision (Phases 1–8) – a. Purpose – This report documents the municipal ad valorem revenue impacts associated with residential de-annexations approved by the City of Stockbridge under Phases 1 through 8 (DX-2024-01 through DX-2024-08).

Cumulative Fiscal Impact – • Total Parcels: 53 • Total City Revenue Lost (2022–2024): $165,259.55 e. Conclusion – Residential de-annexations approved under Phases 1 through 8 resulted in an estimated $165,259.55 reduction in City of Stockbridge ad valorem property tax revenue over the 2022–2024 tax years. This analysis provides a complete parcel-level accounting of City revenue impacts and is suitable for Finance review, audit documentation, and Council consideration. 2. Fiscal Impact Report: Proposed De-Annexation of Two Properties from Manderley Subdivision – a. Methodology – The fiscal impact of the proposed de-annexation was evaluated using a per-capita cost-of-service methodology based on the City’s FY 2026 adopted budget. Because municipal operating and capital expenditures are not tracked on a parcel-specific basis, per-capita averages were used to estimate the cost of providing municipal services to the subject properties. The request involves two (2) single-family residential properties. For fiscal analysis purposes, the properties are estimated to generate a population of approximately 5 residents, based on average household size assumptions commonly used for planning City of Stockbridge Community Development; Stockbridge, Georgia (678) 389-7900 8 analyses. i. Total Budget per Capita – The City’s total per-capita expenditure was calculated using the FY 2026 adopted budget for all funds and the City’s estimated population. Total Budget per Capita = Total FY 2026 Adopted Budget ÷ City Population Using the adopted figures: • Total FY 2026 Adopted Budget: $74,827,124 • City Population: 36,149 This results in a total per-capita expenditure of approximately $2,070 per person. ii. Capital Improvement Budget per Capita – To account for the capital component of municipal service provision, a per-capita capital improvement cost was calculated using the City’s FY 2026 capital-related funds, including SPLOST, TSPLOST, and other capital funds. Capital Improvement Budget per Capita = FY 2026 Capital Improvement Budget ÷ City Population This calculation provides context for the City’s long-term infrastructure and facility investment obligations associated with continued service provision. iii. Average Cost of Municipal Service – The average annual cost of providing municipal services to the subject properties was estimated by applying the City’s per-capita cost to the estimated population associated with the eight properties. Average Cost of Municipal Service = Total Budget per Capita × Estimated Population Using the estimated value: • $2,070 per person × 5 residents ≈ $10,350 For fiscal conservatism, and to reflect that not all capital expenditures scale proportionally to small residential areas, the estimated annual cost of municipal services attributable to the subject properties is approximately $7,900. iv. Property Tax Revenue Loss (Two Properties) – City property tax revenue was calculated using net taxable values from the 2025 Annual Notices of Assessment and the City’s adopted millage rate. City Property Tax = (Net Taxable Value ÷ 1,000) × 3.77 City of Stockbridge Community Development; Stockbridge, Georgia (678) 389-7900 9 This calculation was applied individually to each of the two properties and then aggregated. Collectively, the properties generate approximately $1,125 in annual City property tax revenue. v. Summary – • Average Cost of Municipal Services: approximately $7,900 • City Property Tax Revenue: approximately $1,125 • Net Fiscal Impact: Negative b. Conclusion – Based on the above analysis, the cost of providing municipal services to the subject properties exceeds the revenue generated. Thus, the de-annexation will generate a net negative fiscal impact. Conclusion. From the preceding analysis, it appears that though both the administrative requirements and the geographic requirements have been met for the proposed de-annexation, the financial requirements have not been met, according to the law, the two applicants are prohibited from de-annexing their properties from the City of Stockbridge. The City also subsidiarily recognizes the net negative fiscal impact that the de-annexation will cause to the City’s property tax base. Recommendation. Since all of the de-annexation requirements have not been met, the law states that the Mayor and City Council must disapprove this de-annexation request (DX-2026-01).

Upon deannexation, the properties Manderley (2 lots), l-20-2026 BOC.docx would be zoned R-1 (Single-Family Residence), which is the previous designation of the properties previous to annexation by the City of Stockbridge. The City of Stockbridge 2024 Comprehensive Plan designates the subject property as Low Density Residential (up to 1-4 units per acre). Previous to annexation by the City of Stockbridge, the properties had a FLUM designation of Low Density Residential (up to 2.0 dwelling units per acre, net). Future Land Use Map (FLUM), as part of the Henry County 2045 Comprehensive Plan, designation of the surrounding unincorporated Henry County properties is Medium Density Residential, which is described in the Comprehensive Plan as areas consisting of single family homes on a single lot. New development in these areas should provide pedestrian facilities, including sidewalks and crosswalks, and have an appropriate streetscape. Walkable neighborhoods should be created with appropriate parks and open space. The Medium Density Residential FLUM designation supports developments with a density of up to 4.0 dwelling units per acre, net. The The subject property is located within an area designated as a Suburban Mix on the Henry County Development and Infrastructure Strategy Area Map. The vision for Suburban Mix areas is to accommodate a variety of types of residential neighborhoods that are predominantly single family, as well as some supporting areas of retail (shopping) and workplaces. A system of multi-use trails supports both transportation and recreational goals with sidewalks prioritized around schools, parks, and designed community centers. Per 0.C.G.A. 36-36-134, in the event of a deannexation, a municipality may, but is not required to, continue to provide any services to the property which it was providing immediately prior to the deannexation, provided that the county and municipality have agreed to terms and conditions for the municipality continuing to provide such services. Per 0. C. GA. 36-36-13], a municipality is granted the authority to deannex an area or areas of the existing corporate limits upon the adoption of a resolution by the governing authority of the county in which such property is located consenting to such deannexation. If the governing authority of the county consents to the deannexation and the deannexation conforms with the requirements of 0. C. G.A. Article 8, the governing authority of the municipal corporation shall approve such deannexation unless it that the deannexation would be detrimental to the health, safety, and welfare of the residents and property owners of the area to be deannexed or to the area remaining within the municipality. It is Planning & Zoning opinion that the deannexation would not be detrimental to the health, safety, and welfare of the residents and property owners of the area to be deannexed or to the area remaining within the City of Stockbridge.

Approval by the municipality, unless the geographic requirements have not been met. At least one of the parcels must abut/be contiguous to the boundaries of the city limits (not separated from the city limits by unincorporated areas, a street, a creek or river, or a railroad). No prohibited unincorporated island would be created by the proposed de- annexation. No detrimental effects to the health, safety, and welfare of the property owners of the area to be de-annexed, or to the area remaining in the municipality (causing the de-annexed area to be cut off from receiving county services due to the lack of a reasonable access to the de-annexed area). Financial Requirements: a. The parcels are not located in a municipality that has outstanding general‑obligation bond or revenue‑bond indebtedness. Summary of Analysis 1. Administrative Compliance • Signed de-annexation application submitted to Henry County (six parcels). • County adopted resolution and transmitted application to the City of Stockbridge. • Verified use of the 100% method of de-annexation. • Application meets statutory procedural requirements. 2. Geographic Findings • Both parcels remain contiguous to City limits before and after de-annexation. • No unincorporated “island” created. • City boundary would shift eastward upon approval. • No impacts to streets, access, or emergency/service vehicle operations. • No identified health, safety, or welfare concerns. Summary of Analysis (continued) 3. Financial Considerations • No outstanding General Obligation (GO) bonds. • Outstanding revenue bonds through blended component units: • Urban Redevelopment Agency (City Hall facility). • Public Facilities Authority (Amphitheater, Cultural Arts Center, public safety facilities). • Bonds are primarily repaid from City revenues. • Revenue-backed obligations may be relevant under Georgia de-annexation statutes. Financial Considerations: Details 1. Revenue Bonds Supporting City Hall (URA Bonds) The City’s Annual Comprehensive Financial Reports indicate that the Urban Redevelopment Agency, a blended component unit, carries long‑term revenue bonds issued for the acquisition, construction, and furnishing of the City Hall facility. These bonds are expressly stated to be repayable almost entirely from City resources. • 2023 ACFR: URA revenue bonds outstanding: $8,015,000 as of 12/31/2023 • 2024 ACFR: URA revenue bonds outstanding: $7,160,000 as of 12/31/2024 • Notes to the Financial Statements describe the URA as a blended unit whose debt “is expected to be repaid almost entirely from the resources of the City.” 2. Revenue Bonds Supporting the Amphitheater / Cultural Arts Center (PFA Bonds) The Public Facilities Authority (PFA), also a blended component unit, was created to issue bonds for the construction of the Amphitheater and Cultural Arts Center, among other public facilities. These obligations likewise rely on repayment from City funding sources. • ACFR Notes: PFA debt is “expected to be repaid almost entirely from the resources of the City.” Financial Considerations: Details (continued) 3. Revenue‑Backed Obligations Associated With Police Department‑Related Facilities or Equipment Both ACFRs show City‑backed debt obligations covering public safety facilities and equipment, including those funded through the PFA or through City‑wide capital project bonds. • 2023 ACFR: lists revenue bonds and long‑term liabilities supporting public safety investments. • 2024 ACFR: debt schedule reflects revenue‑backed financing of City facilities, including public safety structures and improvements. 4. General Obligation Bonds Both ACFRs confirm no General Obligation (GO) bonds outstanding for the City of Stockbridge: • “As of December 31, 2023, the City did not have any general obligation bonded debt outstanding.” • 2024 ACFR similarly lists no GO debt but identifies substantial revenue bond indebtedness. Thus, while the City has no GO bonds, it does have revenue bonds whose repayment is structured through City revenues, including those pledged by blended component units—which may fall under the types of obligations contemplated in Georgia’s de‑annexation statutes. Overall Impact • 8 Phases • 53 Total Parcels • Total 3-Year City Tax Revenue: $165,260 • Mix of Confirmed (Phases 1–3) and Calculated (Phases 4–8) totals Key Takeaway: The cumulative 3-year city tax impact across all phases totals $165,260, with later phases (4–8) accounting for approximately 68% of the total projected revenue loss. Confirmed vs. Calculated 3-Year Tax Revenue by Phase Confirmed Tax Bill Phases Calculated Phases • Phase 1 (DX-2024-01): $18,681 (10 parcels) • Phase 2 (DX-2024-02): $17,770 (9 parcels) • Phase 3 (DX-2024-03): $16,141 (9 parcels) • Subtotal (Confirmed): $52,592 • Phase 4 (DX-2024-04): $39,055 (9 parcels) • Phase 5 (DX-2024-05): $39,183 (8 parcels) • Phase 6 (DX-2024-06): $8,452 (2 parcels) • Phase 7 (DX-2024-07): $12,249 (3 parcels) • Phase 8 (DX-2024-08): $13,729 (3 parcels) • Subtotal (Calculated): $112,668 Recommendation Since all of the de-annexation requirements have not been met, the law states that the Mayor and City Council must disapprove this deannexation request (DX-2026-02). 1 TO: Mayor and City Council FROM: Ryan C. Anderson, Community Development Director Brennen Reilly, GIS Analyst/Planner II CC: Mayor Jayden L. Williams Shawn Edmonson, City Manager Valerie Ross, City Zoning Attorney DATE: March 9th, 2026 SUBJECT: De-Annexation Case #DX-2026-02: Six Properties in the Manderley Subdivision Introduction. The owners of six properties within the Manderley Subdivision submitted a de-annexation application to Henry County Planning & Zoning to request that their properties be de-annexed from the City of Stockbridge. The Manderley Subdivision is located at the western edge of the Stockbridge City Limits, bounded by Walt Stephens Road to the north and Blackall Road to the west. The six properties for DX-2026-02 have 7.068 +/- total acres in Land Lot 25 of District 12. They comprise residential lots in the northern portion of the subdivision. Table 1 below provides a list of the six properties by address, parcel number, and owner/applicant.

Trotter Marshall Lori Nichole Johnson Ann and James Jolley City of Stockbridge Community Development; Stockbridge, Georgia (678) 389-7900 2 Henry County Government’s Action. According to a Deannexation Evaluation Report which was prepared by the Henry County Planning & Zoning Department, Henry County Government received a de-annexation application from the six applicants electronically on January 22, 2026. The applicants used the 100% method for the proposed deannexation. The Department then prepared a Deannexation Evaluation Report for Henry County’s Case #DE-AX-25-02, which recommended the approval of the proposed deannexation. It stated that the subject property was previously zoned ‘R-1’ (Single-Family Residential) by Henry County prior to its 2022 annexation into the City of Stockbridge, and that the property would revert back to R-1 upon the successful de-annexation of the property from the City back into unincorporated Henry County. The property also had a previous Henry County future land use designation of Low-Density Residential, which allowed a density of up to 2.0 dwelling units per acre. After the completion of the DE-AX25-02 Evaluation Report, the Henry County Board of Commissioners adopted Henry County Resolution #26-26, dated January 20, 2026, to approve the de-annexation. City of Stockbridge’s Receipt of De-Annexation Application Package. The City of Stockbridge received a copy of the de-annexation application, which was sent electronically by Henry County on January 22, 2026. There was no cover letter included in the package, but the Evaluation Report from Henry County Planning and Zoning did list the included property addresses and parcel numbers. Background on the Manderley Subdivision. The Manderley Subdivision is established and well-developed. Table 2 below lists basic facts about it, and the Appendix contains several pertinent aerial photos and maps.

The surrounding area includes Ingle’s Market and several neighborhood commercial uses flanking Walt Stephens Road; and several subdivisions to the south, southeast, and east. To the west are several individual City of Stockbridge Community Development; Stockbridge, Georgia (678) 389-7900 3 residential parcels outside of Manderley Subdivision, Blackhall Road, the City Limits Line, and Spivey Lake. The commercial uses are located in the C-1 (Neighborhood Commercial) zoning district. The subdivisions to the south, southeast, and east are located in the PUD (Planned Unit Development) district, while the outlying residential parcels to the west are zoned ‘SR’ (Suburban Residential). Properties west of Blackhall Road, in unincorporated Henry County, are zoned ‘R-1’ (Single-Family Residential for large lots) and ‘RA’ (Residential-Agricultural). Legal Requirements for De-Annexation. The Official Code of Georgia (O.C.G.A.) provides legal requirements for de-annexation in O.C.G.A. Sections 36-131 and 36-132. They are summarized in the list below. 1. Administrative Requirements: a. A written, signed application by the owners of no more than ten parcels. b. Adoption of a signed resolution by the county in which the property is located, consenting to the de-annexation. c. Submittal of a copy of the application to the municipality. d. Confirmation by City staff that the procedural requirements for de-annexation have been met by the property owners. e. Verification by City staff that the geographic requirements have been met. f. Approval by the municipality, unless the geographic requirements have not been met. 2. Geographic Requirements: a. At least one of the parcels must abut/be contiguous to the boundaries of the city limits (not separated from the city limits by unincorporated areas, a street, a creek or river, or a railroad). b. No prohibited unincorporated island would be created by the proposed deannexation. c. No detrimental effects to the health, safety, and welfare of the property owners of the area to be de-annexed, or to the area remaining in the municipality (causing the de-annexed area to be cut off from receiving county services due to the lack of a reasonable access to the de-annexed area). 3. Financial Requirements: a. The parcels are not located in a municipality that has outstanding general‑obligation bond or revenue‑bond indebtedness. Analysis of De-Annexation Proposal: 1. Administrative Requirements – The applicants for the proposed DX-2026-02 deannexation submitted a signed de-annexation application form to Henry County, which was for six parcels. After the County’s review, it adopted a signed resolution and sent a copy of the application to the City of Stockbridge. The Planning and Zoning Staff has verified that the acceptable 100 percent method of de-annexation has been used, and that the de-annexation proposal meets the geographic requirements, as are discussed below. 2. Geographic Requirements – From the maps appearing in the Appendix, it is apparent that all of the six parcels within the proposed de-annexation area abut and are contiguous to other parcels within the Stockbridge City Limits, and they would even City of Stockbridge Community Development; Stockbridge, Georgia (678) 389-7900 4 continue to do so if the de-annexation is approved. No prohibited unincorporated island would be created by the proposed de-annexation. Rather, the de-annexed area would be surrounded on one side by other parcels remaining within the City Limits. Whenever a new City Limits Map is prepared, the de-annexed area would push the city limits further north from the resulting boundary created after the approval of DX-2026-02. Further, there would be no alteration of the existing streets or access to them; thus, there do not appear to be any health, safety, or welfare issues in terms of providing needed transportation of County service vehicles or emergency vehicles in reaching the homes of the property owners within the deannexed area. 3. Financial Requirements – The City’s Annual Comprehensive Financial Reports (ACFRs) indicate that the Urban Redevelopment Agency, a blended component unit, carries long-term revenue bonds issued for the acquisition, construction, and furnishing of the City Hall facility. These bonds are expressly stated to be repayable almost entirely from City resources. According to the City’s 2023 ACFR, the total outstanding URA revenue bonds amounted to $8,015,000, and according to the 2024 report, the amount decreased to $7,160,000. Notes to the Financial Statements describe the URA as a blended unit whose debt “is expected to be repaid almost entirely from the resources of the City.” Furthermore, the Public Facilities Authority (PFA), also a blended component unit, was created to issue bonds for the construction of the Amphitheater and Cultural Arts Center, among other public facilities. These obligations likewise rely on repayment from City funding sources, as noted in corresponding ACFRs that note that the PFA is “expected to be repaid almost entirely from the resources of the City.” Both ACFRs also show City-backed debt obligations covering public safety facilities and equipment, including those funded through the PFA or through City-wide capital project bonds. Namely, the 2023 ACFR lists revenue bonds and long-term liabilities supporting public safety investments, and the debt schedule of the 2024 ACFR reflects revenue-backed financing of City facilities, including public safety structures and improvements. Both ACFRs confirm no General Obligation (GO) bonds outstanding for the City of Stockbridge. Thus, while the City has no GO bonds, it does have revenue bonds whose repayment is structured through City revenues, including those pledged by blended component units—which may fall under the types of obligations contemplated in Georgia’s de-annexation statutes. Further considerations regarding the fiscal impact of the proposed de-annexation supplement the prospective violation of the financial requirements if the de-annexation were to be approved. Specifically, the fiscal impact of (1) the previous eight deannexation phases of the Manderley subdivision from the City of Stockbridge and (2) the proposed de-annexation of the six properties is analyzed. 1. Fiscal Impact Report: Residential De-Annexations of Manderley Subdivision (Phases 1–8) – a. Purpose – This report documents the municipal ad valorem revenue impacts associated with residential de-annexations approved by the City of Stockbridge under Phases 1 through 8 (DX-2024-01 through DX-2024-08). The analysis evaluates City property tax revenue only for tax years 2022, 2023, and 2024, based on parcel-level data from the Henry County Tax Assessor. The purpose City of Stockbridge Community Development; Stockbridge, Georgia (678) 389-7900 5 of this report is to provide: • A transparent fiscal impact analysis for de-annexation decisions • Parcel-level documentation for Finance review • A defensible record for Council and audit purposes b. Methodology – • Millage Rate Used: 3.77 mills (City of Stockbridge) • Formula Used: City Property Tax = Total Assessed Value × 0.00377 • Confirmed Phases (1–3): Actual City tax amounts verified by year • Calculated Phases (4–8): Assessed values multiplied by the adopted City millage rate • Exclusions: County, school district, and special service district taxes • Rounding: Nearest whole dollar c.

Cumulative Fiscal Impact – • Total Parcels: 53 • Total City Revenue Lost (2022–2024): $165,259.55 e. Conclusion – Residential de-annexations approved under Phases 1 through 8 resulted in an estimated $165,259.55 reduction in City of Stockbridge ad valorem property tax revenue over the 2022–2024 tax years. This analysis provides a complete parcel-level accounting of City revenue impacts and is suitable for Finance review, audit documentation, and Council consideration. 2. Fiscal Impact Report: Proposed De-Annexation of Six Properties from Manderley Subdivision – a. Methodology – The fiscal impact of the proposed de-annexation was evaluated using a per-capita cost-of-service methodology based on the City’s FY 2026 adopted budget. Because municipal operating and capital expenditures are not tracked on a parcel-specific basis, per-capita averages were used to estimate the cost of providing municipal services City of Stockbridge Community Development; Stockbridge, Georgia (678) 389-7900 8 to the subject properties. The request involves six (6) single-family residential properties. For fiscal analysis purposes, the properties are estimated to generate a population of approximately 16 residents, based on average household size assumptions commonly used for planning analyses. i. Total Budget per Capita – The City’s total per-capita expenditure was calculated using the FY 2026 adopted budget for all funds and the City’s estimated population. Total Budget per Capita = Total FY 2026 Adopted Budget ÷ City Population Using the adopted figures: • Total FY 2026 Adopted Budget: $74,827,124 • City Population: 36,149 This results in a total per-capita expenditure of approximately $2,070 per person. ii. Capital Improvement Budget per Capita – To account for the capital component of municipal service provision, a per-capita capital improvement cost was calculated using the City’s FY 2026 capital-related funds, including SPLOST, TSPLOST, and other capital funds. Capital Improvement Budget per Capita = FY 2026 Capital Improvement Budget ÷ City Population This calculation provides context for the City’s long-term infrastructure and facility investment obligations associated with continued service provision. iii. Average Cost of Municipal Service – The average annual cost of providing municipal services to the subject properties was estimated by applying the City’s per-capita cost to the estimated population associated with the eight properties. Average Cost of Municipal Service = Total Budget per Capita × Estimated Population Using the estimated value: • $2,070 per person × 16 residents ≈ $33,120 For fiscal conservatism, and to reflect that not all capital expenditures scale proportionally to small residential areas, the estimated annual cost of municipal services attributable to the subject properties is approximately $25,300. iv. Property Tax Revenue Loss (Six Properties) – City property tax revenue was calculated using net taxable values from the 2025 City of Stockbridge Community Development; Stockbridge, Georgia (678) 389-7900 9 Annual Notices of Assessment and the City’s adopted millage rate. City Property Tax = (Net Taxable Value ÷ 1,000) × 3.77 This calculation was applied individually to each of the six properties and then aggregated. Collectively, the properties generate approximately $3,375 in annual City property tax revenue. v. Summary – • Average Cost of Municipal Services: approximately $25,300 • City Property Tax Revenue: approximately $3,375 • Net Fiscal Impact: Negative b. Conclusion – Based on the above analysis, the cost of providing municipal services to the subject properties exceeds the revenue generated. Thus, the de-annexation will generate a net negative fiscal impact. Conclusion. From the preceding analysis, it appears that though both the administrative requirements and the geographic requirements have been met for the proposed de-annexation, the financial requirements have not been met., according to the law, the six applicants are prohibited from de-annexing their properties from the City of Stockbridge. The City also subsidiarily recognizes the net negative fiscal impact that the de-annexation will cause to the City’s property tax base. Recommendation. Since all of the de-annexation requirements have not been met, the law states that the Mayor and City Council must disapprove this de-annexation request (DX-2026-02).

She expressed concern about the upcoming Rock Quarry Road widening project and requested information about the construction schedule to minimize disruption to their food distribution service. Council Member Barber, who represents the district where the church is located, suggested Ms. Bullard speak with the City Manager about the project timeline. Mayor Pro Tem Alexander thanked Ms. Bullard for her service to the community and offered to connect her with "Connecting Henry," another organization providing similar services. City Manager Edmondson indicated that the city had alternatives to help with the food pantry during construction. CONSENT AGENDA STOCKBRIDGE POLICE DEPARTMENT - GEORGIA DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC SAFETY APPROVED ROADWAYS Council considered approval of the updated list of Georgia Department of Public Safetyapproved roadways authorized for the use of speed detection devices, including the addition of Tye Street from 308 feet north of Misty Ridge Trail to 308 feet south of 1st Street. The approved list will remain in effect through December 31, 2027. Motion by Mayor Pro Tem Alexander, seconded by Council Member Gantt, to approve the updated list of Georgia Department of Public Safety-approved roadways. Motion passed unanimously 5-0. PUBLIC HEARING ADOPTION OF NEW CITY OF STOCKBRIDGE MAPS for 2026 Ryan Anderson presented four maps for 2026: the Zoning Map, Overlay Districts Map, Future Land Use Map, Subdivisions Map, Council Districts Map, and City Limits Map. He explained that the maps reflect recent annexations, de-annexations (notably in the Manderley Subdivision), and rezoning for new developments. Mr. Anderson provided details of the changes made in 2025, including the annexation of two properties (Case AX 2024), rezoning to Planned Unit Development (Case RZ 202410), future land use designation as Medium Density, rezoning changes including parcelspecific amendments in the Reeves Creek property and others (RZ 2025-02, AX 202403, RZ 2024-12, CP 2024-10), adjustments in high-density residential areas transitioning to low-density mixed use, and amendments to the Comprehensive Plan. He presented each map, explaining the updates and modifications. Councilmember Yolanda Barber inquired about the absence of updated Council District maps among the adoption items and noted for the record that she had previously 2|Page discussed adjusting her district's boundaries with the Henry County delegation during a legislative breakfast to allow her to represent her entire subdivision, as currently one side is represented by Mayor Pro Tem Alexander. She also mentioned needing to include the subdivision Bay Cove located on Tye Street, which is also in her district. She expected these proposed changes to be presented at this meeting. Mr. Anderson explained that staff doesn't have the authority to make those changes until council districts are redrawn and rebalanced; that is when those changes will be reflected and would require a separate process of formal council resolution and state legislative approval, typically following the census in 2030. Councilmember Barber further noted for the record, “In November we hosted a legislative breakfast with our Henry County delegation, and I addressed my concerns specifically for my council district. Those decisions come directly from the governing body, us. We're the ones who make the request to the state reapportionment office for those changes. And that is what I was expecting would be happening.” Mr. Anderson responded that that is correct but now is not the time; it will occur in 2030. Those changes usually happen based on the census. Barber replied, “That is not what was discussed during the legislative breakfast. I am expecting that Mr. Edmondson will bring forward those recommended changes that were discussed during the legislative breakfast.” Councilwoman Barber also raised a concern regarding the inclusion of the Stockbridge Lakes Bed and Breakfast business in the Downtown Development Authority (DDA) map. It was clarified by Mr. Anderson and Mayor Pro Tem Elton Alexander that: 1. The DDA board must approve its map changes because it is a separate entity. 2. The Bed and Breakfast has been included in the DDA District. 3. Additional extensions to the downtown boundary are anticipated via the upcoming Downtown Development Authority (DDA) resolutions and are likely to be presented for council approval within the next 30 to 60 days. Mayor Pro Tem Alexander clarified that at the legislative breakfast, changes to the district in 2030 were discussed, and requesting a change to those districts at this time would essentially fall on deaf ears, as the controlling party has no desire to change those maps. He noted, “That's exactly what the representative stated to us at the time,” further adding that the city council would have to vote to adopt any additional changes, which would require all of us to give up territory in our districts. He emphasized that the fairway for those changes is based on the 10-year census, as indicated to us at the time. He concluded that it would be a futile attempt at this point since the legislators have already informed us that there won’t be any changes. Councilmember Barber added for the record, “In addition to the requested changes to City Council District Four's map, the original discussion before the annexation in 2023 was for us to have districts in addition to two at-large seats. That was also mentioned during the legislative breakfast last year. Those two actions, I'm expecting that Mr. Edmondson will bring to the council some resolution or something to make those 3|Page amendments to the council district. It affects my ability to represent those who elected me to represent them. So, I want to ensure that they have adequate representation in the neighborhoods in which they live.” Mayor Pro Tem Alexander raised a question about a large gray area of heavy industrial use shown on the Future Land Use Map. Mr. Anderson clarified that the area in question was outside the city limits. Councilmember Barber asked Mr. Anderson what was driving the request to approve the new maps. He responded that we are required to adopt these maps every year. Mayor Pro Tem Alexander emphasized that the adoption of zoning maps is critically important because these maps control what types of developments are allowed in the community. They directly address resident concerns about warehouses and truck traffic by limiting where such uses can exist. The council has intentionally reduced zoning for warehousing and heavy truck traffic to a minimum, promoting mixed-use development in areas like Jodeco and along Highway 138 instead. He noted that while new infrastructure projects could increase truck traffic in nearby counties, the city’s zoning efforts focus on minimizing the impact within Stockbridge. Overall, these maps are essential tools in guiding the city’s growth and preserving the community's quality of life, stating, “It's extremely important.” No citizens spoke in favor of or against the adoption of the new maps during the public hearing. A motion to approve the adoption of the new City of Stockbridge maps for 2026 was made by Councilmember Gantt; seconded by Mayor Pro Tem Alexander. The motion passed unanimously 5-0. After the vote, the city’s legal representative, Megan McCulloch, addressed Councilmember Barber's concern regarding the at-large members, noting that this would need to go through a charter amendment, and that, if that was the will of the council, they could work towards it. NEW BUSINESS COUNCIL CONSIDERATION — PROPOSED MARTIN LUTHER KING JR. WAY (STREET RENAMING) Decius Aaron presented an item to rename Lee Street to Martin Luther King Jr. Way. Mayor Pro Tem Alexander provided additional context, explaining that Lee Street was named after Confederate General Lee, and the council had previously discussed removing such references. He noted that changing the street name was time-sensitive because a $73 million STEM school under construction on Lee Street would be finished by the end of 2026, and the school needed to prepare documents with the correct address. Mayor Pro Tem Alexander also shared that the Downtown Development Authority (DDA) was planning to propose a statue of Martin Luther King Sr. ("Daddy King") in the municipal park area near the police department. He described a vision where students attending the STEM school would see the statue daily. Additionally, he mentioned plans 4|Page to name the road to the STEM school after Catherine Johnson, one of the mathematicians featured in "Hidden Figures." Councilmember Barber expressed several concerns, noting that this proposal affected the district she was duly elected to represent and no one had discussed it with her beforehand. She was concerned about the impact on homeowners along the street and stated this was not one of the priorities that she submitted for District 4. She also worried about insufficient notice to affected residents. Council Member Cloud initially expressed apprehension about creating a Martin Luther King Jr. Way when the city already had Martin Luther King Sr. Heritage Trail but ultimately supported the concept after considering the connections between the statue and street renaming. He advocated for notifying residents affected by the change. Motion by Council Member Cloud to table the street renaming proposal until the February work session meeting and to notify affected residents; Seconded by Mayor Pro Tem Alexander. Motion passed with a vote of 4-1 (Barber opposed). Councilmember Barber stated for the record that she opposed the motion because she believed two weeks was insufficient time for proper notification. She suggested setting up a public information meeting with affected homeowners and residents, including those in the duplex across from the street. LIVABLE CENTERS INITIATIVE (LCI)—FUNDING REQUEST Ryan Anderson requested approval for a financial commitment letter for a local match not to exceed $30,000 to support the city's application for a $150,000 grant from the Atlanta Regional Commission to undertake a new LCI study. The study would update the 2012 LCI study. Councilmember Gantt supported the request, noting it was necessary for city operations and the current LCI study needed updating. Motion by Councilmember Gantt to motion to approve the council's consideration of community development request for a letter of financial commitment for local match not to exceed $30,000 in support of our efforts to update the LCI study; seconded by Mayor Pro Tem Alexander. Motion passed unanimously 5-0. COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCE PROGRAM (CDAP)—FUNDING REQUEST Ryan Anderson requested approval for a financial commitment letter for a local match not to exceed $30,000 to support the city's application for a $150,000 grant from the Atlanta Regional Commission for professional planning assistance. This would be for the planning phase of the downtown pedestrian-bike study that was conducted about a year ago. Motion by Councilmember Gantt to approve the $30,000 dollars support requested for the financial commitment and local match not to exceed the $30,000 and for professional planning assistance that aligns with the CDP's goals and advancing equity resiliency and regional planning priorities; seconded by Mayor Pro Tem Alexander. 5|Page Before the vote Councilmember Barber mentioned that she supported the request but noted for the record a correction to page 2 of the City of Stockbridge Downtown Pedestrian & Bicycle Connectivity Study Scoping Phase September 2023 which listed her and Councilmember Thomas as steering committee members. Further stating the document omitted Councilmember Alexander, whom she states had attended all meetings. She clarified that there was no formal steering committee; council members simply attended informational sessions and provided input as available. Mayor Williams called for the vote previously motioned by Council Member Gantt Motion passed unanimously 5-0. CONTRACT APPROVAL FOR CONSULTANT FOR U.D.C. UPDATE Ryan Anderson requested approval of a contract with CPL Architects, Engineers, and Landscape Architect for professional planning services to update the city's Unified Development Code (UDC). He explained that the UDC was approaching five years old, and industry best practice is to update codes after five years and completely rewrite them after ten years. Mr. Anderson noted that the city had issued an RFP that was extended several times but received no responses. Following consultation with the procurement attorney, the city entered into direct solicitation with the vendor CPL, which had previously worked to bring the city's code into compliance with Georgia zoning procedures law. Mayor Pro Tem Alexander inquired about a previously discussed five-mile limit on storage facilities. Mr. Anderson explained that the city's zoning attorney had advised that such a restriction might be problematic since Stockbridge is only 19 square miles, which would effectively prohibit all new storage facilities. He explained that most of the city is already protected from new storage facilities through overlay districts, though one particular parcel had "slipped through on a technicality." Councilmembers Gantt and Mayor Pro Tem Alexander both suggested bringing this item back for further discussion and to review in-depth strategies to mitigate the influx of storage facilities. City Manager Shawn Edmondson has committed to addressing the storage facility issue during the upcoming planned retreat. He aims to reinforce the suggestions from Community Development and Legal, ensuring they are airtight and provide the governing body with the best information possible. Motion by Councilmember Gantt to approve the contract for consultation of the UDC update to CPL Architects, Engineers and Landscaping; seconded by Councilmember Berry. Motion passed unanimously 5-0. TEXT AMENDMENT CASE #TX-2026-01 FOR BUSINESS COMPLIANCE OFFICER I Ryan Anderson requested approval of a text amendment to the Municipal Code of Ordinances to formally authorize and codify the duties and enforcement powers of the Business Compliance Officer I, a new position created in the FY 2026 budget. The 6|Page amendment would establish consistent procedures for business licensing compliance, inspections, and administrative citation authority. Council Member Gantt expressed strong support for the position, noting it was "so needed" to ensure businesses maintain clean and orderly facilities. She emphasized that some businesses, particularly gas stations, need to improve their maintenance standards and protect the image of the city. Motion by Council Member Gantt, to approve the municipal code of ordinance to formalize, authorize and codify the duties and enforcement powers of the Business Compliant officer; seconded by Council Member Barber. Motion passed unanimously 5-0. MULTI-PURPOSE CENTER: CONTRACT APPROVAL FOR ARCHITECTURAL SERVICES Ryan Anderson requested approval of a contract for On-Call Architectural Services for the Multi-Purpose Center to TSW. He explained that this would authorize the city to execute the contract and allow TSW to begin providing architectural, planning, design, and construction-related services on an as-needed basis. Mayor Pro Tem Alexander wanted to clarify that for 2026, the primary focus of TSW would be the Recreation Center. Mr. Anderson replied that the primary focus of TSW would be the Recreation Center, but TSW would be an on-call architectural service and can work on any building that requires architectural services. Motion by Mayor Pro Tem Alexander to approve TSW as the on-call architect services specifically as outlined in 2026 to work on the Recreation Center, subsequent to that, The Multicultural Arts Center; seconded by Council Member Gantt. Before the vote, Council Member Barber asked Procurement Manager Jeremy Andrews whether the entire procurement process had been followed. Mr. Andrews confirmed that the item had indeed gone through the procurement process. He clarified that the Request for Proposal (RFP) process was completed before he was hired. However, once he joined the team, procurement reviewed everything thoroughly. He noted that the city received several responsive bids, and TSW was awarded the contract. Mayor Williams called for the vote previously motioned by Mayor Pro Tem Alexander. Motion passed unanimously 5-0. MAYOR'S COMMENTS The mayor deferred his comments for executive session.

Tenant may remove any moveable equipment or trade fixtures owned by Tenant during the term of this Lease, provided that any damage caused by such removal shall be repaired by Tenant in a manner acceptable to Landlord.

All condemnation awards shall belong to Landlord; provided, however, and to the extent permitted under applicable law, Tenant shall be entitled to file a separate claim against the condemning authority for loss of its personal property and moving expenses so long as the filing of such claim does not affect or reduce Landlord's claim as to such awards or proceeds. 21. Assignment. Tenant may not assign this Lease or any interest thereunder or sublet the Premises in whole or in part or allow all or a portion of the Premises to be used by a third party without the prior written consent of Landlord. If Tenant is a corporation, partnership, limited liability company or other entity, the transfer of more than fifty percent (50%) of the ownership interests 4 RE_28282 of Tenant or the transfer of a lesser percentage which results in a transfer of control of Tenant (WHICH INCLUDES, WITHOUT LIMITATION, TRANSACTIONS IN WHICH TENANT SELLS ITS BUSINESS, SELLS ALL OR SUBSTANTIALLY ALL OF THE ASSETS OF ITS BUSINESS OR MERGES OR CONSOLIDATES WITH ANOTHER ENTITY), whether in one transaction or a series of related transactions, shall constitute an assignment for purposes of this Lease.

Any assignment or sublease made in violation of this Paragraph 13 shall be void and shall constitute a default hereunder. 22. Environmental. Tenant covenants that neither Tenant, nor any of its agents, employees, contractors or invitees shall cause or permit any aboveground or underground storage tanks or associated piping (collectively “Tanks”) to be located on or under the Premises or any Hazardous Materials (as hereinafter defined) to be stored, handled, treated, released or brought upon or disposed of on the Premises.

Tenant shall not under any circumstance dispose of trash, debris or wastes on the Premises and will not conduct any activities on the Premises which require a hazardous waste treatment, storage or disposal permit. As used herein, the term “Hazardous Materials” means asbestos, polychlorinated biphenyls, oil, gasoline or other petroleum based liquids, and any and all other materials or substances deemed hazardous or toxic or regulated by applicable laws, including but not limited to substances defined as hazardous under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act, as amended, 42 U.S.C. §9601 et seq., or the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, as amended, 42 U.S.C. 6901 et seq. (or any state counterpart to the foregoing statutes) or determined to present the unreasonable risk of injury to health or the environment under the Toxic Substances Control Act, as amended, 15 U.S.C. 2601 et seq. Tenant shall indemnify, defend and hold the Landlord Entities harmless from and against any and all claims, judgments, damages, penalties, fines, costs (including without limitation, consultant’s fees, experts' fees, attorney's fees, investigation and cleanup costs and courts costs), liabilities or losses resulting from (1) the storage, handling, treatment, release, disposal, presence or use of Hazardous Materials in, on or about the Premises from and after the date of this Lease or (2) the violation by Tenant of any provision of any Environmental Laws. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing indemnity, in the event Landlord has reason to believe that the covenants set forth in this Paragraph 14 have been violated by Tenant, Landlord shall be entitled, at Tenant’s sole expense, to take such actions as Landlord deems necessary in order to assess, contain, delineate and/or remediate any condition created by such violation. Any sums expended by Landlord shall be reimbursed by Tenant, as additional rental, within thirty (30) days after demand therefor by Landlord. Landlord has the right to enter the Premises at all reasonable times for purposes of inspecting the Premises in order to evaluate Tenant’s compliance with the covenants of this Paragraph 14. In the event Tenant delivers or receives any notices or materials from any governmental or quasi-governmental entity and such notices or materials relate to Tanks or Hazardous Materials in, on or about the Premises, Tenant shall immediately send to Landlord a copy of such notices or materials. Tenant shall also provide Landlord with a detailed report relating to any release of a Hazardous Material in, on or about the Premises whenever such release is required to be reported to governmental authorities 5 RE_28282 pursuant to the Environmental Laws. Upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, Landlord shall have the right to cause to be performed such environmental studies of the Premises by an environmental consultant as are necessary to determine whether any Hazardous Materials have been stored, handled, treated, released, brought upon or disposed of on the Premises during the term of this Lease in violation of the terms hereof. If any such study reveals any violation of this Lease, Tenant shall promptly reimburse Landlord for the costs of such studies and Tenant shall immediately undertake a further investigation, if necessary, and remediation of such contamination. Landlord may undertake such investigation and remediation if Tenant fails to do so within a reasonable time frame, in which case Tenant shall promptly reimburse Landlord for the cost of same within thirty (30) days after demand therefore by Landlord. The obligations of this Paragraph 14 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. 23. Default; Remedies. In the event (i) any payment of rental or other sum due hereunder is not paid within ten (10) days after the due date thereof; (ii) the Premises shall be deserted or vacated; (iii) Tenant shall fail to comply with any term, provision, condition or covenant of this Lease, other than an obligation requiring the payment of rental or other sums hereunder, and shall not cure such failure within twenty (20) days after notice to the Tenant of such failure to comply; (iv) Tenant shall attempt to violate or violate Paragraph 13 above; or (v) Tenant or any guarantor shall file a petition under any applicable federal or state bankruptcy or insolvency law or have any involuntary petition filed thereunder against it, then Landlord, in addition to any remedy available at law or in equity, shall have the option to do any one or more of the following: (a) Terminate this Lease, in which event Tenant shall immediately surrender the Premises to Landlord. Tenant agrees to indemnify the Landlord Entities for all loss, damage and expense which Landlord may suffer by reason of such termination.

Thereafter, at Landlord's option, Landlord may enter upon and relet all or a portion of the Premises (or relet the Premises together with any additional space) for a term longer or shorter than the remaining term hereunder and otherwise on terms satisfactory to Landlord. Tenant shall be liable to Landlord for the deficiency, if any, between Tenant's rental hereunder and all net sums received by Landlord on account of such reletting (after deducting all costs incurred by Landlord in connection with any such reletting, including without limitation, tenant improvement costs, brokerage commissions and attorney's fees).

(d) Perform any unperformed obligation of Tenant, including, but not limited to, cleaning up any trash, debris or property remaining in or about the Premises upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. Any sums expended by Landlord shall be repaid by Tenant, as additional rent, within ten (10) days after demand therefor by Landlord.

Tenant agrees to pay all costs and expenses, including, but not limited to, reasonable attorney’s fees and consultant’s fees, incurred by Landlord in connection with enforcing the performance of any of the provisions of this Lease, whether suit is actually filed or not. Acceptance of rental or any other sums paid by Tenant shall not constitute the waiver by Landlord of any of the terms of this Lease or any default by Tenant hereunder. Landlord shall 6 RE_28282 use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate damages to the extent required by applicable law; provided, however, if applicable law nevertheless requires Landlord to mitigate damages then (i) Landlord shall have no obligation to treat preferentially the Premises compared to other premises Landlord has available for leasing; (ii) Landlord shall not be obligated to expend any efforts or any monies beyond those Landlord would expend in the ordinary course of leasing space; and (iii) in evaluating a prospective reletting of the Premises, the term, rental, use and the reputation, experience and financial standing of prospective tenants are factors which Landlord may properly consider. 24.

Such month-to-month tenancy shall be terminable upon thirty (30) days written notice by either party to the other. If Tenant remains in possession of the Premises after the expiration of the term hereof without Landlord's written consent, Tenant shall be a tenant at sufferance subject to immediate eviction. In such event, in addition to paying Landlord any damages resulting from such holdover, Tenant shall pay base rental at the rate of three times the then current base rental. In such circumstance, acceptance of base rental by Landlord shall not constitute consent or agreement by Landlord to Tenant's holding over and shall not waive Landlord's right to evict Tenant immediately. 27. Notices. Any notice given pursuant to this Lease shall be in writing and sent by certified mail, return receipt requested, by hand delivery or by reputable overnight courier to: (a) Landlord: c/o Director Real Estate, Norfolk Southern Corporation, 650 W Peachtree St NW, Atlanta, GA 30308, or at such other address as Landlord may designate in writing to Tenant.

Brokerage. Landlord and Tenant hereby covenant and agree to indemnify and hold the other harmless from and against any and all loss, liability, damage, claim, judgment, cost and expense (including without limitation attorney's fees and litigation costs) that may be incurred or suffered by the other because of any claim for any fee, commission or similar compensation with respect to this Lease, made by any broker, agent or finder claiming by, through or under the indemnifying party, whether or not such claim is valid. 30.
