PRESENTATION
4. Presentation of Open Gov Project
Presented by: Frederick Gardiner, John Wiggins, Brice Percynski
Informational and reporting tool for government transparency was presented.
Mr. Percynski noted this would give the citizens full transparency with the operations of the
city; noted it would be an informational tool along with helping with different reports such as
monthly reporting from finance, permitting reports from community development,
procurement, etc.

Councilman Blount asked what the advantage would be to use this company.

Mr. Wiggins noted the information would be pulled from Incode, the city’s Finance platform,
and provide information to the public to promote transparency.

Councilman Blount asked why the city needs an outside company to provide information
and transparency, and do for the city what staff should provide to the public considering the
information comes from city staff and is submitted to this company.

Mr. Gardiner noted the city’s platform does not present the information in laymen’s terms
that would be easily understood and referenced cities currently using the platform to
include the City of Roswell.

Councilman Alexander noted all financial information is available to the public via an open
records request, and suggested that at the most, 2% of the citizens would request the
information and has not heard where this software would provide new information, but
rather the information that the city already has, and asked Mr. Percynski to provide
statistics on the use by the cities currently utilizing the platform.

Mr. Percynski confirmed, and noted the firm has a plan and offers professionalism and
training to make sure the platform get up and operating properly.

PUBLIC HEARING
5. Final Reading and Adoption - Public Hearing of the Proposed FY2023 Operating Budget
and Capital Improvement Plan
Presented by: Frederick Gardiner, John Wiggins
Mr. Gardiner presented an overview of the proposed FY2023 Operating Budget and Capital
Improvement Plan.

Councilman Blount referenced his request for the city’s Financial Advisor to attend the
meeting noting this is the first budget that is being balanced with Fund Balance and will rely
on the $1.9 mil county rollback; and not being transparent as to how the city will sustain the
increases.

Mayor Pro Tem Thomas noted the city is absorbing credit card fees of over $53,000 per
year and motioned to no longer absorb the fees; second by Councilman Alexander. The
motion failed 2-0-2 (Barber/Blount Abstained).

Mayor Pro Tem Thomas referenced the 2nd Budget Hearing where it was confirmed by the
City Manager that the newly proposed positions would not be funded in the 2023 Operating
Budget, and that the critical position of Economic Development Director is moving forward
and being funded.

Mr. Gardiner confirmed, noting his intent was for the candidate to be confirmed later during
the meeting.

Mayor Pro Tem noted historically, and traditionally, the Council receives the resume of any
Director nominated by the City Manager prior to Council confirmation.

Councilman Blount noted he did not need to see the resume and asked that the City
Manager be allowed to hire and build his team.

Councilwoman Barber asked if there are any mid-year budget review meetings scheduled
for 2023, noting there were no meetings provided in 2022 following requests; referenced
the budget retreat and the new format that did not include the governing body, and noted
that because of the lack of a budget review to know where the city is financially, she cannot
support approval of the budget; Councilwoman Barber referenced the ARPA report and
asked If the numbers were for FY22 or FY23.

Mr. Wiggins confirmed the report references FY2022.

Councilwoman Barber asked for a detailed report for ARPA funds spent by the Stockbridge
Police Department and the city’s Public Works Department and asked for clarification of
ARPA funds paid in the amount of $280,000.

3|Page
Mr. Wiggins confirmed the $280,000 was for the Employee Retention Incentive; and noted
the ARPA balance is $1.5 million with $1.167 restricted.

Mr. Gardiner noted the goal is to try to get the budget process started with the Retreat in
February 2023 to include the city’s Strategic Plan and priorities for FY23 Projects and have
a working document to present in August 2023.

Mayor Pro Tem Thomas requested that Council receive financial reports from the City
Manager on a monthly and quarterly basis; and cited Section 4.10 of the Charter whereas
the Council shall confirm all Directors, noting the Council should see the background
information of the Director for which they are being asked to confirm, stating the Council
must do their due diligence with respect to vetting candidates and confirmations of
department Directors.

Mr. Gardiner noted he was not aware of that process noting the Charter does not specify
that resumes be submitted to the governing body and would have the information forwarded
to the Council for review for confirmation of the Director at the December 20, 2022 meeting.

Councilman Blount referenced the Charter and noted areas that appear to be antiquated
and needs to be updated to 21st century best practices and noted councilmembers should
present their questions to staff in advance and behind closed doors.
Mayor Pro Tem Thomas noted the Council had not been made aware that a Director
position was being brought forward for confirmation by the City Manager until today.

Mr. Gardiner noted he plans to meet with the county to request additional tax funds based
on the passage of the annexation referendum and the approximately 7,000 new residents
as a result and hopes the county will comply with the request without legal recourse.

Mr. Gardiner noted he is working with GMA (Georgia Municipal Association to draft the
appropriate correspondence to submit to the county regarding L.O.S.T. (Local Option Sales
Tax) and the new city residents/former county residents where there is law that speaks to
an approximate 6% increase in population.

Councilman Blount noted there needs to be a financial analysis completed.

an increase of $31,548.05, Mayor Ford inquired on the increase; noted no cut-offs were

in the amount of $45,649.83: Second by Councilwoman Barber. The motion passed 3-0.

9. Council Consideration to approve Water Deposit Change/Increase from $150 to $200.
Presented by: John Wiggins
Mr. Wiggins noted the current deposit for water services to be connected requires is $150
for renters only; noted the Finance Dept is requesting authorization to increase the water
deposit to $200 which would put the city in line with the other sister cities in the county and
to change the language to include homeowners, property management companies and
investment companies.

Councilman Blount asked if the deposit increase is expected to cause a decrease in future
write-offs.

Mr. Wiggins noted a decrease due to the increase with more funding with the extra $50
with the other deposit such as the homeowners and property managers; noted all the other
sister cities implemented an increase three years ago.

Mr. Aaron noted the average water bill is approximately $61.20.

Mayor Pro Tem Thomas motioned to approve Water Deposit Change/Increase from $150
to $200: Second by Councilman Blount. The motion passed 3-0.

10. Water and Sewer Rate Increase Ordinance – Council Consideration to approve the
Ordinance for FY23 – FY27.
Presented by: Decius Aaron and Chad Peden (Carter & Sloope Engineer)
Mr. Aaron noted staff has looked at the water and sewer rate’s structure and has reviewed
the past audit and note GEFA (Georgia Environmental Finance Authority) requires the city
to maintain a certain debt service coverage ratio; noted the city has not met the

6|Page
requirement and with the loan with GEFA (Georgia Environmental Finance Authority) it
allows them to raise the rates to meet the debt service coverage ratio; noted Carter &
Sloope, city engineers has prepared a rate analysis study for the next 5 years to meet the
with GEFA (Georgia Environmental Finance Authority) requirements which is a debt
services ratio of 1.1%.

Mr. Peden noted the biggest challenge for the City of Stockbridge is that their cost
recovery (operating revenues divided by operating expenditures) has fallen below 1.0 in
recent years and in general, this ratio must be higher than 1.0 for a self-sustaining
enterprise; noted the City of Stockbridge operates under an “increasing block” rate
structure; noted this rate structure defines itself by charging higher rates per unit of water
and sewer as the volume of consumption increases; noted consumers face a lower rate up
to the first block of consumption and pay a higher price up to the limit of the second block,
and so on until the highest block of consumption; noted customers are billed the base
charge plus usage except for irrigation and hydrant meters and recommended residents
have a typical block structure which is described as the cost per 1,000 gallons from 0 to
10,000 is uniformed with whatever is used and if residents use more than 4,000 gallons,
the cost will go up.

Mayor Ford inquired if that would include a reduced rate based on quantity.

Mr. Peden noted it would not be a reduced rate, and would cover whatever expenses to
provide and produce water; noted three options were identified for with the goal of
maintaining a sustainable enterprise, Proportional Increase, Uniform Increase and Custom
Increase with recommending going forward with Custom Increase; noted Overall, the
average residential water and sewer bill (4,000 gallons) would increase from $61.28 per
month to $90.10 per month, equivalent to 1.85% of the median household income, which
is still below the 2.0 guideline recommended by USDA.

Councilman Blount motioned to approve Water and Sewer Rate Increase Ordinance for
FY23 – FY27: Second by Councilwoman Barber. The motion passed 3-0.

11. Council consideration to approve the renewal of the City of Stockbridge On-Call Sidewalk
Replacement and Repairs Contract with DAF Concrete, Inc. in the amount of 250,000.00.
The funding source is SPLOST V.
Presented by: Decius Aaron
Mr. Aaron noted the city had an assessment completed in 2018 of the streets with council
wanting to include sidewalks; noted the assessment is similar to the LMIG (Local
Maintenance and Improvement Grant) analysis, with DAF Concrete, Inc repairing over
11,100 linear ft. of sidewalks and used a rating system on how locations would be chosen
and spent $260,00 repairing and replacing sidewalks; noted work has been completed in
Monarch Village, Windsong and Summit View with the goal next year of obtaining the
same amount as LMIG (Local Maintenance and Improvement Grant) with a minimum of 5

7|Page
miles and a minimum of sidewalk replacement of at least 11,000 linear feet; noted staff
would like to be proactive to keep the city sidewalks safe.

Mayor Ford asked how the newly annexed streets would be incorporated into the city’s
LMIG Plan.

Mr. Aaron noted he is having conversations with the City Manager about the new
subdivisions coming into the city and assumes they will all have the same conditions with
roads and sidewalks and will gradually start working on them; noted staff has already
identified the location due to SPLOST being approved for specific areas with the new
areas staring in 2024 and have already identified the streets and sidewalks to be repaired;
noted after a new evaluation is completed, new areas will be added.

Councilwoman Barber noted the city awarded a LMIG contract for as a separate contract
and asked why this contract is needed.

Mr. Aaron noted GDOT (Georgia Department of Transportation) requires an annual list of
streets that would be resurfaced under the LMIG (Local Maintenance and Improvement
Grant) and noted the repair of damaged sidewalks in the city is beyond what the Public
Works staff can do.

Councilman Blount motioned to approve the renewal of the City of Stockbridge On-Call
Sidewalk Replacement and Repairs Contract with DAF Concrete, Inc., in the amount of
250,000.00: Second by Mayor Pro Tem Thomas. The motion passed 3-0.

Presented by: Kim Jordan, Frederick Gardiner

date, time, location and a brief description of the event.

to have lateral leeway to be able to adjust some dates where there may be a conflict:

Mayor Ford noted the time for BridgeFest states 7pm-11pm and noted this has historically
been an all-day event.

Presented by: Quinton Washington
Mayor Ford inquired on the number of slots available for each board/committee.

Ms. Holiday noted a number of individuals would like to be re-appointed, however with the
new residents coming in, a number of applications have come in and was hoping Mayor
and Council would extend the deadline to allow for additional applications before making
appointing; noted staff has received applications for the Citizens Police Advisory Council
where the policy states the Mayor and Council shall appoint members as well as the Chief
of Police; noted there has been a number of applications received for District 2 and
inquired on who would make the appointment first, noting there needs to be more
clarification; noted citizens have been applying for more than one board/committee with
vacancies on a few boards; noted the Chief Trammer has advised the Citizens Police
Advisory Council will not appoint members until the latter part of the first quarter of 2023
and recommends delaying until there is clarity, noting it has also been requested that
anyone applying for the Citizens Police Advisory Council also apply for the Citizens Police
Academy and vice versa; and asked the Council to consider the Planning Commission
needs appointments to conduct business with a quorum.

Mayor Ford noted the Councilmember of the district would make the initial appointment to
the Citizen-Police Advisory Council.

current GFL residents are billed property taxes and the new residents would have to be
