The plat for your consideration this evening is Madison Hall located on Hickory Flat Road. This
is the final plat consisting of nine lots with a total of 12.2 acres and a density of .73 lots per acre.
The plat shows the location of it on the southern side of Hickory Flat Road. All approvals are in
order. It is essentially a one street cul-de-sac with the northern most parcels about one acre and
the southern parcels a little larger due to buffers and streams. At the very bottom of the plat is the
storm water facility. Based on submitted drawings and supplemental information, the final plat
meets the requirements of our city codes as they pertain to the development of this property.
Motion and Vote: Councilmember Hewitt moved to approve Agenda Item No. 18-115.
Councilmember Longoria seconded the motion. The motion passed (7-0).
The following Agenda Item was added under Approval of Meeting Agenda:
2. Consideration of a Resolution Enacting an Emergency Moratorium to Bar Until May 8,
2018 Acceptance of Applications for Concept Plan Approval, Primary Variances and
Applications for Issuance of Land Disturbance Permits for Gasoline Stations and Service
Stations in the C-1 Zoning District within the Rural Milton, State Route 9 and
Birmingham Crossroads Overlay Districts.
RESOLUTION NO. 18-04-471
(Ken Jarrard, City Attorney)
Ken Jarrard, City Attorney
This is a proposed resolution that would impose a moratorium that would apply to the acceptance
by the city regarding applications for concept plan approvals of land disturbance permits and
applications for primary variances for gasoline and service stations located in the C 1 zoning district
within the Rural Milton, State Route 9 and Birmingham Crossroads Overlay Districts. This is in

the nature of an emergency moratorium because we want to maintain status quo or block the
acceptance of those type of applications. These type of emergency moratoriums under the zoning
procedures law have to be followed by a public hearing if they are going to be imposed for a longer
duration. So, this moratorium will prevent staff from accepting these type of applications until
May 8, 2018 unless there is a public hearing authorized by the zoning procedures law at which
point the moratorium may be extended. We anticipate modifications that staff is preparing
pertaining to the Rural Milton, State Route 9 and Birmingham Crossroads Overlay Districts that
will affect either commercial or primarily with specific applications for gasoline stations and
service stations. We should anticipate a public hearing for a longer duration of this moratorium to
give staff adequate time to implement modifications.
Motion and Vote: Councilmember Kunz moved to approve the Emergency Moratorium with the
following change to number 2.
2. The moratorium imposed by this Resolution shall terminate on the earliest date of
(1) May 8, 2018; (2) approval by the City Council of an additional moratorium
after a public hearing; or (3) the adoption of an amendment to the zoning
ordinance with respect to the standards and requirements for the C-1 Zoning
District within the Rural Milton, State Route 9, Birmingham Crossroads
Overlay Districts.
Councilmember Bentley seconded the motion. The motion passed (7-0).

Our TSPLOST numbers are still trending at about 80% of projections. The county is still looking
at an updated study on those estimates. This past week, we installed four speed tables throughout
the city. We have a contract with GAF Concrete that is constructing those for us. There are two
in Braeburn and one in Highland Manor. The Mayfield Road sidewalk is almost completed and
landscaping is going in this week. The Crabapple roundabout is going to have additional paving
done and the island will be completed. It will be stamped concrete similar to the speed table pattern
already installed in the area. The Birmingham roundabout has some base installed and they hope
it will be shifted over to roundabout operations in about a month. The Freemanville at Providence
and Morris at Webb projects are out to bid right now and the bids are due April 17th

Sam Trager, Human Resources Director
Since the beginning of the year for the first quarter, we have had two separations which is a very
good retention rate. We have two vacant positions in the Police Department. We are working on
a wage survey for our administrative positions. We are also working on a performance evaluation
program that we hope to implement in late summer or early fall. We are going to bring forth some
policy changes regarding telecommuting and nepotism. We are also looking at some military buy
back time on our pension plan for those employees who have had previous service in the military.
