housing shellers within the C-2 (General Commercial), C-3 (Heavy
Commercial), O-l (Office-Institutional), and LI (Light Industrial) zoning
districts as Special Uses, requiring the approval of a Special Use
Permit through the public hearing process. Planning Commission

Presented by: Ryan Anderson, Community Development Director

Mr. Anderson presented an overview of Text Amendment Case No.
TX-2024-04 for Housing Shelters Citywide, noting the Planning

the Text Amendment amends section 3.1 of the Code, and that there
is no provision in the Unified Development Code (UDC) that allows
for this these types of facilities; and presented a map of the proposed
locations.

Councilmember Barber asked what was driving the change for the Text
Amendment

Mayor Ford noted that he has been approached by several individuals
regarding who have complained about the homeless crisis in the city, and
he met with the City Manager to address the need.

Councilmember Alexander asked how the locations were determined

Mr. Anderson stated that staff compared the proposed locations with other
cities with these types of facilities.

2|Page
Councilmember Alexander noted that he and Councilmember Barber
participated on a board to address shelters and the homeless situations,
especially during the winter months and agrees the facilities are
necessary.

Mr. Anderson noted there would be three tiers: Tier 1 30 days, Tier 2 6
months, and Tier 3 One year; and that all tiers would not have more than
40 beds, would require approval a Special Use Permit the City Council
from, and that while no locations have been determined, the facility would
be restricted from locating in a residential area.

Councilmember Barber asked if Transitional Housing was included

Mr. response was no, it does not.

Councilmember Gantt agreed there is a need, and thanked Mayor Ford
and staff for taking the lead, hoping the County and other cities will follow,
and that non-profits will assist.

(Planned Unit Development) to allow for a mixed residential
development. The applicant is D. R. Horton, Atlanta East,
represented by Tiffany D. Hogan. The property contains three
parcels, as are listed below, in Land Lot 57 of District 12, with 79.16
+/- total acres. Planning Commission Recommendation on 09/28/23-

Presented by: Ryan Anderson, Community Development Director

Mr. Anderson presented an overview of the proposed development, noting
the requests for deferrals made by the Applicant; noted the Planning
Commission recommended denial, and the staff recommended denial,
however the recommendation was based on a old LCI
Study, noting the study is only good for ten years, and noted that the
Comprehensive Plan has been updated, and the amendment
request is no long required.
3 | P a g e
Councilmember Thomas noted the development has been deferred a
number of times, and that he has continued to meet with residents of the
subdivision, and surrounding area, along with members of the
Homeowners Association, and the Developer, trying to work together to
bring a quality development, and to address the requests from the
commercial component as part of the development, considering the
location and proximity to major roadways; and noted the concern of the
residents who would have to live with the development, is the fear of the
unknown commercial that would come to the area.

Councilmember Alexander stated that the development presented is
unchanged, and does not have a commercial component, which is why
the project was deferred; and referenced a roadway with access to
Davidson Parkway, and bridge connecting to the adjacent Flippen Road
development.

Councilmember Gantt recalled discussions of a commercial mixed-use
component and will respect the wishes of the community.

Ms. Tiffany Hogan presented the development on behalf of D. R. Horton.
Questions were raised about the development and a commercial
component, along with making the development a quality product that the
residents of the community could agree to and live with; Ms. Hogan
referenced the development noting the development would be on 79.02
acres with 3.74 units per acre, 36.3 acres of open space, 296 units (129
Townhomes and 168 Single Family Detached Homes, with 2-car garages;
noted Northbridge would not be included in the name, noted the sub-road
promised by the Flippen Road developer would be too dangerous and
taxing, noting a drop; noted a Traffic Impact Study has been
completed along with the following Conditions:

house for a proposed pocket park, and sidewalks are placed on both sides
of the street with the Townhomes placed on the west side of the property
closest to Davidson Parkway.

Ms. Hogan noted this developer uses quality materials that include cement
fiberboard that tends to last longer and is more durable, and noted D R
Horton has always been serious about remedying any issues.

Councilmember Barber noted that she is not a fan of high density and
wants to make sure the development meets the UDC requirements,
and asked what the price point will be.

Ms. Hogan referenced the projected timeline for completion to be 2025,
and that the projected starting sales price will be $325,000 for the

Ms. Hogan noted there were no conceptual plans included in the

deferred and does not include commercial; noted the DRI called for a

commercial and to build a bridge and re-submit.

Ms. Hogan responded that the city rezoned the Reeves Creek
development, however, there is a dangerous drop, and noted that it is
unfortunate that promises were made to the city by the developer of the
Flippen Road development.

appear to be crammed in and agrees the developer needs to go back to

walk away.

Councilmember Thomas noted that developments throughout the city
reflect the city as a whole, and appreciates members of Council weighing

expand if the project is not approved.

Ms. Hogan noted there are cost and safety issues.

to construct a quality development with respect to the quality of life for the
current and future residents.

Ms. Hogan agreed to reduce the number of units from 296 to 275 with 125
Townhomes and 150 Single-Family Detached homes and between the

Decius Aaron, Public Works Director

Mr. Barnes requested Council approval of the renewal of the
landscape and maintenance services
contract with Yellowstone
Landscape in the amount of $350,000.00.

and $350,000.00 is to amend the contract to accommodate
the
requests for additional services that may be requested for
maintenance, services, and supplies above the contract amount; and
that the Procurement Office prepared and uploaded the documents
that are presented to the Governing Body.

Councilmember Barber stated that a request to amend the contract
includes a change in the scope of work and compensation and is not
the same as the Agenda request to approve the renewal of the current
contract; and noted the documents uploaded are not legible and noted
that staff should bring any requests for extra services beyond the City

spending authority of $50,000 to the Council for
consideration and approval.

Landscape in the amount of $350,000.00. The motion died for lack of
a second.

documents are included as part of the $350,000.00 amount, and asked
if Procurement could explain.

Mr. Aaron noted that was a separate project that was completed for
Campground Road and should not have been included in the
documents.

Councilmember Alexander noted it is important for staff to be proactive
without having to come back to Council for approval.

Councilmember Barber referenced her copy ofthe FY2024 Budget and
asked where she could locate the Landscaping amount for the year,
and asked if the Interim Treasurer could assist with identifying the line
item in the budget.

Mr. Aaron noted the budgeted amount for FY2024 is $330,000.00; and
that the contract expires at the end of September 2024.
