9. REZONING CASE #RZ-2022-03 -- Consideration of a request for a change in zoning
from RR (Rural Residential District) to OI (Office-Institutional District) for 0.964 acres at
3884 Walt Stephens Road in Land Lot 25 of Section 12, comprising Parcel #031-
02012000. Application by CKC Commercial Properties, LLC, c/o Battle Law, P.C.
Presented by: Ryan Anderson
Mr. Anderson gave an overview of the development noting this is a request to rezone
property from RR (Rural Residential District) to O-I (Office-Institutional District) to allow
for a children’s speech therapy facility and the future land use designation of the subject
property is Public/Institutional; noted the property was annexed into the city in 2016 and
is currently is vacant; the current zoning located north of the property is MFR (Multiple
Family Residential District), south of the property is PUD (Planned Unit Development
District), east of the property is RR (Rural Residential District) and West of the property
is RR (Rural Residential District); C-1 (Neighborhood Commercial District); noted the
total square footage of the existing building is 2,475 ft. and the total number of proposed
parking spaces would be 10; noted the request to rezone the subject property to O-I is
consistent with the current Comprehensive Plan; The possible impact upon the adjacent
property owners, should the property be rezoned, is a small increase in vehicular traffic;
Rezoning the subject property will not affect the character of Walt Stephens Road. The
location of the proposed speech therapy facility will benefit Red Oak Elementary School
since it will help students who have difficulties with speech therapy; noted the site
appears to be suitable for the proposed rezoning with approved variances. Issues
regarding buffering, topography, drainage, access, size, and shape of the property will
be addressed; noted the variance requests will be heard concurrently with the rezoning.

Mr. Anderson noted the applicant will be seeking approval for the following variances:
1. A variance to reduce the minimum lot width from 125 to 96.37 feet; 2. A variance to
reduce the eastern section of the property from 50 feet to 0 feet; and 3. A pending
variance to reduce the western section of the property from 50 feet to 0 feet. Staff
recommends approval with conditions for the proposed rezoning from RR (Rural
Residential District) to O-I (Office‐Institutional District) with the following conditions:

3|Page
• Variance approval to reduce the minimum lot width from 125 to 96.37 feet.
• Variance approval to reduce the eastern section of the property from 50 feet to 0 feet.
• Variance approval to reduce the western section of the property from 50 feet to 0 feet.

Questions addressed by Attorney Michele Battle, representative for the applicant.

Ms. Battle noted if approved, the landscaping requirements would be included to allow
the owner of the land to be responsible for making sure the landscaping is maintained.

Councilwoman Gantt motioned to approve as recommended by staff with added
Landscaping Conditions: Second by Councilman Alexander. The motion passed 5-0.

10. VARIANCE CASE #VR-2022-02 -- Consideration of a request for (1) a variance to
reduce the required minimum lot width of 125 feet to 96.37 feet; (2) a variance to reduce
the buffer on the eastern side from 50 feet to 0 feet; and (3) a variance to reduce the
buffer on the western side of the property from 50 feet to 0 feet for 0.964 acres at 3884
Walt Stephens Road in Land Lot 25 of District 12, comprising Parcel #031-
02012000. Application by CKC Commercial Properties, LLC, c/o Battle Law, P.C.
Presented by: Ryan Anderson
Mr. Anderson gave an overview of the variance requests; noted the property’s’ front
section is 100 ft. in the rear and is very narrow which does not meet the minimum live
requirements of the Unified Development Code (UDC); noted the reduction of the buffer
would allow any necessary development of the property and seeing the building is not
125 ft. which is required by development standards of the OI Zone (Office-Institutional),
the applicant cannot use it for institutional purposed; however, by reducing the minimal
lot width from 125 ft to 96.37 ft. the applicant can utilize the existing building for
institutional purposes; noted granting the variance requested will not confer upon the
property owner and special privileges that are denied to other owners of property in the
same zoning district, the requested variances will be consistent with the purposes and
intent of the UDC and will be compatible with uses on neighboring properties; and by
approving the requested variances, the subject property will be used to assist children
who need speech therapy assistance; noted the variance request is not a request to
permit a use of land, building or structures that is prohibited in the same zoning district
and staff recommends approval of the three variances.

Questions addressed by Attorney Michele Battle, representative for the applicant.

Presented by: Ryan Anderson
Mr. Anderson gave an overview of the development; noted the proposed mixed-
residential development would include 318 apartments and 50 townhomes with a
proposed density rate of 13.8 units/acre which falls in the high-density residential land
use designation; noted the high-density residential land use category has a range of 6
to 16 units/acre and the current property includes 12 parcels; noted north of the property
is Glen Devon Subdivision, south is Spivey Ridge Subdivision, west is vacant land and
east is Baileys Estates Subdivision; noted the property is currently not consistent with
the comprehensive land use designation of low-density vertical mixed use and the
existing designation calls for low rise buildings with commercial use on the ground floor
and residential on the upper floors; noted the applicant wants to develop a residential
development with apartments and townhomes and has requested a comprehensive
plan amendment to change the property land use designation to high density with the
applicant wishing to not to develop the types of uses which low density vertical mixed
use future land use designation calls for; noted the proposed ‘High-Density Residential’
land use designation for the subject property is reasonable due to the property’s
frontage on Highway 138 West, which is a state highway, where higher densities are
5|Page
appropriate; and noted due to the subject property’s frontage on Highway 138 West,
which is a state highway, it is unlikely that the property would be developed with the
types of uses which are called for by the existing Low-Density Vertical Mixed-Use
designation. Mr. Anderson noted staff recommends approval.

Councilman Alexander inquired if it was staff’s desire to match the city’s high density
with the surrounding jurisdictions and the price to develop.

Mr. Anderson confirmed and noted due to the changing conditions of the expanding
population in the city, the high-density category is more for suburban areas.

Mr. Murray noted the development is estimated at close to $100 million project.

Presentation of the development and questions addressed by Zack Murray and
Jonathon Schrader of Tellus Partners, and founders and owners Jamie and Jilea
Hemmings of Nourish +Bloom.

Councilwoman Gantt inquired on the type of commercial businesses that would be
opening.

Mr. Murray noted currently there will be a smoothie bar, cabana bar and grill, sports bar,
brunch restaurant and currently have other leases that have been signed.

Councilwoman Baber inquired on the access for both residential and commercial.

Mr. Anderson gave an overview of the development presented; noted the proposed
project meets one of the main goals of the purpose and intent of the city’s unified
development code and can serve as a catalyst for future commercial development;
noted the proposed project is a mixed-residential apartments with townhomes; however,
it does not meet the threshold of a regional development review.; noted seeing the
proposed project will be located along a state roadway, Georgia DOT and Henty County
DOT will be required to be consulted in the design of the transportation network of the
development including ingress and egress; noted the proposed development would
meet purposes of the Parkway Mixed-Use Overlay District and would feature a
balanced mixture of residential densities and proposed commercial uses; noted the

7|Page
properties as currently zoned are less likely to be developed than a high-density mixed-
use development due to the property’s location on a State highway, Reeves Creek
Tributary, and other challenges and only a high-density development would be feasible;
and noted the rezoning of the property to PUD would allow for flexibility in design and
greater usage of the total site area; staff recommends approval with conditions:

1. The project will be developed on conformance with the City of Stockbridge
Unified Development Code and all other City Codes sections regarding site
development standards and requirements
2. The approval of Case #CP-2022-02 to change the property’s future land use
designation from Low-Density Vertical to High-Density Residential shall occur
simultaneously with the approval of Case #RZ-2022-04 for the rezoning of the
property
3. The rezoning shall not be finalized until the applicant receives approval from
Mayor/Council for Recombination Plat Case #RC2022-01 and this shall not be
finalized until a new plat is officially recorded by the Henry County Superior Court
4. Regarding the Issuance of Land Disturbance and Building Permits- No land
disturbance or building permit shall be issued for the subject property until the
applicant has had the new recombination plat officially recorded and has
submitted a copy of the recorded plat to the Community Development
Department.

Questions addressed by Zack Murray and Jonathon Schrader of Tellus Partners.

PRESENTATION
4. Parks Master Plan Update
Presented by: Decius Aaron, Public Works Director and TSW Staff, Beverly Bell, and
Bryan Bays
Ms. Bell noted the goals with the conceptual design phase are high level ideas for each park
and the goals for existing parks will provide the framework that will lay the groundwork for
the schematic designs; noted Clark Park is the most popular park and citizens utilize the
walking trail, playgrounds and pavilions with citizens wanting to see walking trails within the
park, public art, sprots courts, community gardens, aquatic center or splash pad, and better
dog parks.

Mr. Bay proposed options for Memorial Park entrance which would be a two-way traffic
connection off Wilson St.; acquire the two end houses off Jennings Way to add more parking
and secondary trail head to Reeves Creek Trail and to make Jennings Way a one-way street
heading North to South into the park with an exit off Wilson Street; noted the three options for
Memorial Park would be to: Option 1 - expand parking up to 100 parking spaces, create the
main park entrance off of MLK Senior Heritage Trail, upgrade the two existing playgrounds,
add public art along the trail, upgrade the basketball courts with shaded seating, improve the
rest; Option 2- Jennings Way being the main entrance, rotate the parking lot to add 140
spaces, new restrooms, splash pad would be optional and smaller pavilions, two full
basketball courts near parking; Option 3- expanding into the waste transfer site by including
land already owned by city which would create secondary entrance with own parking lot, new
restrooms, area for splash pad, new pavilions, maintaining existing basketball court with an
additional added with seated shade area, opportunities to add community garden.
Councilwoman Gantt proposed looking into the new trend of incorporating art sculptures with
the playground equipment.
Mr. Bay referenced two concepts for Clark Park which are Active and Passive; noted the
active park would include restored stream bank, create a tunnel connection to Gardner Park,
add new restrooms near activity areas, relocate dog park to behind the Merle Manders
Conference Center, add way find signs; noted the passive park would include the same
designs as the active but would include reconfigure parking lot at Burke/Davis Rd to
accommodate six pickleball courts and expand parking lot at Creek/Davis Rd.; noted one
concept for Garner Park which would be to acquire land for sell to expand the park to the
south and add additional parking spaces, provide ADA access to pavilions, tennis courts and
playgrounds, stream restoration, add connections to Clark Park and walking trail, add way
find signs and shade to play areas.
Councilwoman Gantt suggested the addition of tennis courts that could be converted to
pickleball courts with lines specifically drawn.
Mayor Pro Tem Thomas inquired on the timeline to implement the Master Parks Plan.
Ms. Bell noted the next steering committee meeting will be held in October followed by other
meetings until January; schematic design phase would be next which would last until March
of 2023.

work and fee to fit the City’s budget.

Geographic Proximity
Carter & Sloope, Inc. operates four offices in Georgia. Our corporate office is located in Macon and
our other offices are located in Watkinsville, Canton and Moultrie. All work for the City of
Stockbridge will be based out of our Athens area office located in Watkinsville. Since we have
ongoing projects in the area and our project manager, Mr. Chad Peden, P.E., lives approximately 20
minutes from Stockbridge, our response time for meetings and site visits would be relatively short.
For a detailed listing of each office and the name and contact information of the managing engineer,
please see Section 7 – Location.

Technical Resources
C&S is fully equipped with state-of-the art computerized
drafting, design and surveying equipment. All drawings,
maps and plans are prepared using AutoCAD® Civil 3D 2020.
Full- size color plots are produced in-house on an HP color
plotter and reduced prints are produced on a Canon color
laser printer. Reproduction jobs are done in-house using our
large format HP scanner/printer. Some larger reproduction
jobs may be outsourced to local reproduction facilities. Our
data is shared across all offices through a virtual private
network secured with unified threat management firewalls at
each office location. Data from each remote office is synced
daily across multiple servers for fail-over operation and
efficient data recovery. Our CADD operators are fully trained
in the latest versions of AutoCAD® Civil 3D. The firm also
utilizes ArcGIS 10.7 for GIS applications and mapping plus
InfoWater, InfoSewer and InfoSwmm by Innovyze for water
and sewer and stormwater system hydraulic modeling. C&S also maintains ten (10) pressure
data loggers and three (3) fire hydrant testing equipment (pilot tubes with diffusers) that are
available to conduct pressure studies and hydraulic transient studies.

With multiple licensed Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) pilots, C&S can offer a full-range of
surveying and mapping services. Equipped with the latest Carlson software and the use of Leica
and GeoMax total station and GPS equipment, C&S surveyors have the tools they need to get the
job done. Also, with the addition of a Phantom 4Pro UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) and
Metashape data processing software, C&S can perform aerial mapping and photo observations

representation of the various team leaders the City of Stockbridge will see during different types
and phases of projects. The following key individuals presented in the Project Organization Chart
were selected and organized on our project team based on their depth of experience with on-call
engineering services in the following areas: environmental engineering, transportation and
civil/site engineering, master planning and feasibility studies, permitting and reporting, funding
assistance, construction phase services, landscape architecture, and O&M and commissioning.

At the center of our project organization chart is the City of Stockbridge with the Principal In-
Charge as Mr. Marty Boyd, P.E., surrounding the City. Mr. Boyd serves as the president of Carter
& Sloope, Inc. and will oversee and be responsible for the overall quality assurance/quality control
throughout the various phases of each assigned project. Surrounding both the City of Stockbridge
and Mr. Boyd is our Project Manager, Mr. Chad Peden, P.E. Mr. Peden will oversee and manage
all projects assigned to our firm. Team leaders have been assigned to each project category
based on their extensive experience and qualifications. Team leaders will oversee each team

CITY OF STOCKBRIDGE
Section 10 – Litigation

Litigation Summary
During the past five (5) years, Carter & Sloope, Inc. has been named a defendant in two (2) legal
proceedings. The first case involved multi-party defendants who were sued because of a fatality on
a Georgia Department of Transportation roadway improvement project in the City of Gray, Georgia
in Jones County on SR 18 & 129. Carter & Sloope was not involved in the roadway design project
but had designed the City’s utilities that were being relocated as a result of the road widening. Carter
& Sloope, Inc. was not negligent in this case and was eventually dismissed/removed from this legal
proceeding.

In 2019 we received notification of Indemnity Obligation in connection with a lawsuit filed in the U.S.
District Court for the Northern District of Georgia, Linda McLean v. White County and Charles Black
Construction, Inc. regarding the Yonah Preserve Park Improvements – Phase I. Carter & Sloope,
Inc. planned, designed, and assisted with obtaining permits for a recreational ballfield project for
the White County Board of Commissioners. A property owner adjacent to a portion of the project
filed suit against the General Contractor and White County (Owner) for alleged sediment runoff from
that portion of the project. The suit contended that the Contractor and Owner failed to properly
install and maintain erosion control best management practices to prevent erosion and sediment
runoff onto their property. The adjacent property owner and their attorney did not file suit against
Carter & Sloope, Inc., but the attorney for the White County Board of Commissioners advised them
to add Carter & Slope as a Third-Party Defendant to reduce their exposure. The plaintiff and
defendants met for third party mediation and subsequently signed a settlement agreement in April
2021, attributing the issue to an erosion control retrofit failure during construction, not a professional
design issue. The court issued a consent decree to the settlement and the matter is now closed.

Falcon Design was retained by the City of Villa Rica to provide a grading and drainage analysis report for the newly constructed library
which was experiencing erosion and sediment issues. As part of the permanent mitigation plan, FDC prepared two (2) landscape concepts
which were presented to the library board, City officials, and parks and recreation staff for consideration. A concept was agreed upon and
the design progressed into landscape and hardscape design drawings. The overall design plan introduced drought tolerant plant material
and native species in organic forms around the building. The planting plan provided multi-seasonal interest through texture, leaf color and
size, varying bloom time, and use of edibles. Additionally, the landscape provided niches for small animal habitat and food sources for but-
terflies and hummingbirds. The design provided access for all and is designed within the provisions of the Americans with Disabilities Act
(ADA).

Project Approach

Project Turnaround Times
Location. Location. Location. Being located in Henry County within 5 miles of the City of Stockbridge will allow FDC the op-
portunity to produce designs and make decisions quicker and more accurately, while producing shorter turnaround times in pro-
ject production. FDC has the ability to meet on-site or upon the call of those responsible for the projects, quickly, creating a true
project sites remain under control of the City of Stockbridge. FDC will provide strict project coordination, and can provide su-
pervision to review installation procedures, installation progress and handle any problems during construction through project
completion.

Cost Savings
laced
on the Henry County Stormwater Consultants bid list. FDC has proved our worth to Henry County by providing bids, design
and plans all within the time schedule provided, and at the best cost presented on the majority of the bid requests. FDC could
boast of our cost-effectiveness, but the savings is really recognized by the Henry County tax payer with lower design costs and
the highest of value engineering.

Listen and Develop Objectives and Goals
Kick-off and subsequent meetings are necessary to ensure that FDC understands the objectives and goals of the City on every
project. Project scope, schedule/task milestones, and budget will be established and adhered to throughout concept and devel-
opment.

Conceptual Design
FDC will use the survey database along with environmental studies to prepare a conceptual design that meets the objectives of
the project. The conceptual design will include items such as the proposed layout, centerline alignments, proposed edge of pave-
ment, proposed profile grade, major drainage structures, along with pertinent survey information such as property lines, property
owners, and existing and proposed edge right-of-way.

Database Preparation
FDC will use the survey database along the environmental studies to prepare a conceptual design that meets the objectives of the
project.

Preliminary Observations
for a Potential Tax Allocation District
in Stockbridge GA

Presentation to the Stockbridge Georgia City Council
October 25, 2022
Background
• In 2020 Henry County and Stockbridge voters granted the County and its municipalities
redevelopment powers to create tax allocation districts (TAD) and finance improvements
within those districts
• The City Council has until December 31 to adopt a redevelopment plan and create a TAD
to become effective in 2023, otherwise that process must be delayed a year
• June the City retained KB Advisory Group (KB) to assist in preparing a redevelopment plan
to potentially establish the City’s first TAD focused on the Downtown Area
• KB has begun to analyze options for a potential TAD #1 to enable the City Council to
consider action in December. This presentation provides an early progress report on that
effort.

What is the Georgia Redevelopment Powers Law?
• The Redevelopment Powers Law is Georgia’s version of tax increment financing (TIF) —an economic
development tool used in 49 states and D.C.
• Not to be confused with tax credits or abatements
• Voters in roughly 80 Georgia cities and counties have authorized local governments to use
redevelopment powers since 2003.
• A partial list of local governments with
redevelopment powers who are using tax
increment financing is shown here.
• These communities are in various stages of
planning and project implementation

What is a Tax Allocation District (TAD)?
• A Tax Allocation District or TAD, is a geographic
area consisting of specific identified tax parcels
Canton GA TAD #1 within a Redevelopment Area where cities and
counties may use the Georgia Redevelopment
Powers Law to stimulate private investment in
under-developed properties
• A TAD can only be established within a Redevelopment
Area created by local adoption of an approved
Redevelopment Plan
• A TAD can contain few or many individual Tax parcels
• A TAD can encompass all or a portion of the
Redevelopment Area – A Redevelopment Area can also
contain more than 1 TAD
• A TAD must be “certified” by the Georgia Department of
Revenue to establish a base year for financing purposes
• TADs usually have a finite life (typically 25 to 30 years)
and can be dissolved by the local government provided
no debt obligations are outstanding

How do TAD’s Work?

TAD examples: Downtown Duluth
Duluth has used TAD plus
other incentives to attract
$350 million in ongoing
investment within its
Downtown Area, including
the redevelopment of a
vacant shopping center on
Buford Highway and the
re-use of the former City
Hall into a multi –
tenanted restaurant
district known as Parson’s
Alley.

TAD examples: Downtown Gainesville

Gainesville has negotiated more than10 reimbursement agreements that
have incentivized a minimum of $150 million in total investment in the
Downtown Gainesville – most of which is completed or under construction
TAD examples: Downtown douglasville

Douglasville intends to use TAD increment from a
proposed mixed-use development to partially fund debt
service on a new park and amphitheater being developed
on the site of the former Douglas County Jail.

What is a Redevelopment Area & Plan?
• Georgia’s Redevelopment Powers Law enables local governments (whose voters have approved the use
of redevelopment powers) to designate “Redevelopment Areas” within which Tax Allocation District(s)
can be created, and tax increment financing can be used to incentivize desired private investment
• Redevelopment Areas must meet minimum definitional requirements to qualify, which are specified in
the statute
• Redevelopment Areas can only be created by local adoption of an approved Redevelopment Plan
created under guidelines specified in State law
• A TAD can encompass all or a portion of the Redevelopment Area – A Redevelopment Area can also
contain more than 1 TAD
• A redevelopment plan can be amended in the future to create additional TADs within the same
redevelopment area, provided the original TAD(s) is/are not impacted

What Qualifies a Redevelopment Area?
• Minimum requirements to qualify a redevelopment area include such factors as comparatively slow
growth, below average (housing and commercial) property values, higher residential and commercial
vacancy rates, “pervasive poverty” and/or above average unemployment than the community or region
as a whole
• “Slums and blight” is not part of this definition – and are addressed in a different part of state law
• The local government has an obligation to demonstrate that private investment within the proposed
Area is generally not feasible “but for” the use of redevelopment powers due to such factors as:
• High development costs
• Property assembly issues
• High market risk & competition from greenfield areas or
• Inadequate public infrastructure
• A “catch-all” provision in the definition of a redevelopment area - “the existence of conditions through
any combination of the foregoing that substantially impair the sound growth of the community and
retard the provision of housing accommodations or employment” gives local governments discretion
to use redevelopment powers in areas which are not growing in the manner desired by the community,
as evidenced by the adopted comprehensive plan or in prior studies (like the Stockbridge LCI Plan)

10
What information is required in a Redevelopment Plan?
• The law specifies the required contents of a Redevelopment Plan. (These plans have
been written by consultants, law firms and by “in house” city/county staff.)
• Plan goals and objectives
• Rationale for qualification as a Redevelopment Area
• Proposed redevelopment strategy, land uses and projects
• Contractual relationships (implementing responsibility)
• Redevelopment costs and proposed method of financing
• Designation of the proposed TAD boundaries, parcels, current assessed value and property tax
revenues
• Projected future tax increments, how those revenues will be used and anticipated us of financing (if
applicable)
• TAD creation/termination dates, relocation issues (households or businesses), historic properties,
impacts on school districts
• Cap of 10% of a jurisdiction’s digest can be within TADs

11
TAD #1 Focus Area

Potential Stockbridge Redevelopment Area
12
Rationale for the proposed Redevelopment Area
• The proposed redevelopment area (the Area) focuses on the corridor between I-75 and Downtown
Stockbridge, including North Henry Blvd as the main commercial gateway to downtown
• The Area accommodates all parcels which are likely to be included within a potential TAD #1
• The Area qualifies as a redevelopment area based on such factors as
• Demographic and income characteristics
• Age and comparatively low value of the existing housing stock
• Comparatively slow growth in housing and commercial development compared to the rest of the City and County
• The City has focused substantial planning and public investment in this area over a long period of time – with the
goal of creating an active civic, cultural, entertainment and commercial City center. Existing conditions “impair
the sound growth of the community” by making desired private sector investment more difficult, absent of the
financial tools that a TAD provides
• The Area includes most publicly owned parcels and larger undeveloped sites surrounding downtown,
that could support future development and creates opportunities to amend the redevelopment plan to
add one or more TADs in the future if opportunities/needs arise

13
“Right-Sizing” a Tax Allocation District
• Once the TAD digest is certified to a “base” year, if the boundaries of the TAD are
changed later, the base digest must also be “reset” to that new base year. In most
circumstances, once a TAD is created its boundaries should remain fixed – so it is
best to get the map right the first time
• Factors to consider when setting TAD boundaries
• The geography chosen should reflect the overall strategy articulated in the Redevelopment Plan
• The TAD should include areas where future projects are planned to create tax increment as well
as areas where the community expects to spend future TAD revenues if/when available
• (“Generator” and “receiver” areas for TAD funding are not always the same)
• The TAD should include parcels surrounding planned projects, which are most likely to increase in
value if those projects are successfully implemented
• Preserve flexibility (particularly in a first TAD) by staying well below the “10% cap” on the
percentage of a jurisdiction’s tax digest that can be included within TAD’s
• To the extent possible, exclude high-valued parcels that are already developed to their highest
and best use and are not likely to change in value in the future
• Anticipate and avoid potential obstacles to securing County and School District consent
14
Areas shaded in white may be excluded from the list of TAD parcels

15
Early Action Items
• Establish eligibility and set boundaries of a Redevelopment Area that qualifies the City to use tax
increment financing to achieve desired redevelopment
• Evaluate the boundaries and specific parcels that could become part of a Tax Allocation District (TAD)
where tax increment financing can be used
• Evaluate potential projects and project sites within the proposed TAD where private investment and
future digest growth could occur
• Forecast resulting increased property taxes and TAD revenues from future redevelopment
• Identify City priorities / “eligible redevelopment costs” / uses for those potential TAD revenues

16
Next Steps
• November 14: Second presentation to the City Council containing more specific findings for the
proposed TAD and contents of the required redevelopment plan to create TAD #1
• Required Action: Authorize the required TAD public hearing(s)
• November 21: Deliver a draft copy of the redevelopment plan to the City Council
• November 29: Hold the required TAD Public Hearing
• December 12: City Council votes on a resolution to adopt the redevelopment plan and establish
TAD #1 - the vote may be preceded by an (optional) second public hearing
• December: Request certification of the TAD values by the County Board of Assessors and submit to
the Georgia Department of Revenue
• First quarter of 2023: Request consent to TAD #1 from the Henry County Commission (first) and
Board of Education, and negotiate agreements with each party
