CITY OF STOCKBRIDGE
HENRY COUNTY, GEORGIA JUNE 15, 1992

The special meeting of the City Council was held June 15, 1992 at 10:00 a.m. with Mayor Pro Tem Harold
Cochran presiding and members present were G. W. Evans, F.J. Hunter and Ronnie Simmons. Mayor Kelley
was in attendance but arrived after the meeting started.

Motion to convene was made by F. J. Hunter, seconded by G. W. Evans, motion carried.

Richard Spangler, with Spangler and Manley, reviewed City Hall plans with Council. He pointed out that
plans include 50 parking spaces. There is considerable rock on this lot, which may hold up grading. They
plan to save the large trees and to construct a retaining wall in front of the building. He noted that Georgia
Department of Transportation requires a retention pond on the east side of the driveway to hold surface water
to be released slowly into an underground sewer system. This pond will be approximately 4' deep and law
requires that a six-foot chainlink fence be constructed around the pond. Ronnie Simmons was very upset
over the pond and fence. He said the last time this was discussed, Frank Prince felt he could channel the
surface water into the underground drainage system without having to construct a retention pond.
Councilman Simmons stated he would not have voted to purchase this property if Ted Strickland had reported
this fact to the Building Committee in a timely manner and the Council could have reconsidered the building
site. Harold Cochran stated that he thought the Mayor's office should be the front office. Other members of
the Council were in agreement but Mayor Kelley told Council that it made no difference to him and to leave
the Mayor's office in the back of the proposed building. At this point, Mr. Spangler continued with a review
of the plans. He reviewed the electrical system of which the Council made several changes. The heating
and air conditioning systems were reviewed and no changes were recommended. Mr. Spangler will get with
Theresa Krause, Tailored Business Systems, to discuss wiring for computers.

Motion was made by Ronnie Simmons to approve electrical changes, seconded by Harold Cochran, motion
carried.

Council discussed contracting with an interior designer.

Motion was made and seconded to adjourn. Meeting adjourned at 12:45 p.m.

Respectfully submitted,

Merle Manders R. G. Kelley
City Clerk Mayor
