Executive Summary: In addition to classroom time, tests, and practical training exercises, emergency medical training programs and licensure agencies require advanced-level students to participate in field training programs where they can perform the medical procedures under the careful guidance of qualified preceptors. At the paramedic level, this requires approximately 600 hours of clinical time in addition to the classroom and practical portions. This MOA would allow Milton Fire-Rescue to serve as approved clinical site for the Faithful Guardian Program. Milton is currently sponsoring 6 of our Firefighter/EMTs in this Paramedic program. This MOA would allow them to conduct their clinical time here rather than at another municipality or with a private ambulance service. Funding and Fiscal Impact: Because of the possibility of holding clinical hours in Milton, this MOA would be generally budget-neutral or of a financial benefit to the City. This allows personnel to avoid travel and out-of-city time for training and makes scheduling easier on the Fire Department. Alternatives: Students could attain their mandatory training hours at the outside departments already approved as Clinical Agencies.

Construct according to these Specifications and to the lines, grades, thickness, and typical cross-sections shown on the Plans or established by the Engineer. 301.1.01 Related References A. Standard Specifications Section 412—Bituminous Prime Section 800 --Coarse Aggregate Section 814 —Soil Base Ataterials Section 821—Cutback Asphalt Section 830—Portland Cement Section 880 --Water B. Referenced Documents General Provisions 101 through 150 GDT Test Methods GDT 19 GDT 21 GDT 65 GDT 86 GDT 20 GDT 59 GDT 67 301.1.01 Submittals Before constructing a test section according to Subsection 301.3.04.E.1, submit a Construction Work Plan to the Engineer. Include proposed equipment and proposed compaction procedures. If the Engineer determines that the Work Plan is not satisfactory, revise the compaction procedure and augment or replace equipment, as necessary, to complete the Work. 17-PW7 Resurfacing and Reconstruction and Intersection Improvement Project I = 301.2 Materials Ensure that materials meet the requirements of the following Specifications: Material Section Blotter material (sand) 412.3.05. G.3 Coarse Aggregate 800 Soil Base Material 814.2.02 Cutback asphalt, RC -30, RC -70, RC -250 or MC -30, MC -70, MC -250 821.2.01 Portland Cement (Type I or Type II) 830.2.01 Water 880.2.01 301.3 Construction Requirements 301.3.01 Personnel Ensure that only experienced and capable personnel operate equipment. 301.3.02 Equipment Use equipment that has been approved by the Engineer before construction begins. Provide equipment in satisfactory condition capable of continuously mixing materials (pavement structure, soil, water, and cement) to a consistent depth. Use equipment capable of providing a homogenous blend. 301.3.03 Preparation Loosen and pulverize the in-place pavement structure to the width and depth to be stabilized without damaging the underlying materials. Add water to assist pulverization if necessary. 301.3.04 Construction 1. Weather Limitations 1. Mix cement -stabilized base only when the weather permits the course to be finished without interruption within the time specified. 2. Mix materials only when the moisture of the materials to be used in the mixture meets the specified limits. 3. Begin mixing only when the air temperature is above 40°F (4°C) in the shade and rising. 4. If the work is interrupted for more than two hours after cement has been added, or if rain increases the cement's moisture content outside the specified limits, the affected area of completed cement -stabilized base course will be tested for unconfined compressive strength, in accordance with Section E - Strength. 2. Moisture Adjustment Adjust the moisture content of the roadway materials to within 100 to 120 percent of the optimum moisture immediately before spreading the cement. The optimum moisture content is determined by the Job Mix Design and can be adjusted by the Engineer. 3. Cement Application 1. Uniformly spread the required amount of Portland cement with a cyclone -type mechanical spreader or its equivalent. Do not use pneumatic tubes to transfer the cement from the tanker directly onto the material to be stabilized. 2. Apply cement at the rate specified on the Job Mix Design (as established by GDT -65) and mix to the depth shown on the Plans. The Engineer may alter the spread rate during the progress of construction if necessary. Maintain the application rate within + 10 percent of that specified by the Engineer. 3. Provide both equipment and personnel to measure the application rate of cement placed. 4. Apply cement on days when wind will not interfere with spreading. 17-PW7 Resurfacing and Reconstruction and Intersection Improvement Project 5. If the cement content is below the 10 percent limit in the mixing area, add additional cement to bring the affected area within the tolerance specified and recalibrate the mechanical spreader's spread rate. If the cement content is more than the 10 percent limit in the mixing area, the excess quantity will be deducted from the Contractor's pay for cement. 6. Regulate operations to limit the application of cement to sections small enough so that all of the mixing, compacting, and finishing operations can be completed within the required time limits. 7. Pass only spreading and mixing equipment over the spread cement and operate this equipment so that it does not displace cement. 8. Replace damaged cement at no cost to the Department when damage is caused by: ■ Hydration due to rain, before or during mixing operations. ■ Spreading procedures contrary to the requirements stated above. ■ Displacement by the Contractor's equipment or other traffic. 9. Do not spread cement on any areas that "pump" under construction traffic. D. Mixing 1. Begin mixing as soon as possible after the cement is spread, and continue until a homogeneous and uniform mixture is produced. Make any necessary changes to meet the Engineer's requirements if the equipment does not produce a homogeneous and uniform mixture conforming to these Specifications. 2. Continue pulverizing until the base mixture is uniform in color and conforms to the following gradation requirements 1. 95 percent passing the 2 inch (50mm) sieve 2. 55 percent of the roadway material, excluding gravel, passes the No. 4 (4.75mm) sieve. 3. Add water as needed to maintain or bring the moisture content to within the moisture requirements immediately after the preliminary mixing of the cement and roadway material. 4. Mix the additional water homogeneously into the full depth of the mixture. E. Compaction and Finishing 1. Test Section Use the first section of each constructed cement -stabilized base course as a test section. 2. Construct a test section between 350 feet (100m) and 500 feet (150m) long at the designated width. c. The Engineer will evaluate compaction, moisture, homogeneity of mixture, thickness of stabilization, and finished base surface. If the Engineer deems necessary, revise the compaction procedure or augment or replace equipment. 2. Time Limits a. Begin compaction within 45 minutes from the time water is added to the cement mixture_ b. Complete compaction within 2 hours. c. Complete all operations within 4 hours, from adding cement to finishing the surface. d. Do not perform vibratory compaction on materials more than 90 minutes old, measured from the time cement was added to the mixture. 3. Moisture Control During compaction, ensure that the moisture is uniformly distributed throughout the mixture at a level of between 100 and 120 percent of the optimum moisture content. 4. Compaction Requirements a. Use a steel wheel roller for initial compactive effort unless an alternate method is approved by the Engineer. b. Compact the cement -stabilized base course to at least 98 percent of the maximum dry density established on the Job Mix Design. c. Uniformly compact the mixture and then shape to the grade, line, and cross- section shown on the Plans. 17-PW7 Resurfacing and Reconstruction and Intersection Improvement Project d. Remove all loosened material accumulated during the shaping process. Do not use additional layers of cement -treated materials in order to conform to cross-sectional or grade requirements. e. Use a pneumatic -tired roller to roll the finished surface until it is smooth, closely knit, and free from cracks or deformations, and conforming to the proper line, grade, and cross-section. f. In places inaccessible to the roller, obtain the required compaction with mechanical tampers approved by the Engineer. Apply the same compaction requirements as stated above in Subsection 301.3.04.E.4. g. Perform grading operations immediately after the placement and compaction operations. Roll the stabilized base course again with a pneumatic -tired roller. F. Construction Joints 1. Form a straight transverse joint at the end of each day's construction or whenever the Work is interrupted. 2. Create the straight transverse joint by cutting back into the completed Work to form a true vertical face free of loose or shattered material. 3. Form the joint at least 2 feet (600mm) from the point where the spreader strike -off plate comes to rest at the end of the day's work, or at the point of interruption. 4. Form a longitudinal joint as described above if cement -stabilized mixture is placed over a large area where it is impractical to complete the full width during one day's work. Use the procedure for forming a straight transverse joint. Remove all waste material from the compacted base. G. Priming the Base 1. The surface of the completed base course must be moist cured until the bituminous prime is applied. 2. Apply prime only to an entirely moist surface. If weather delays prime application, apply prime as soon as the surface moisture is adequate 3. Apply bituminous prime according to Section 412 as soon as possible and in no case later than 24 hours after completion of the finishing operations. 4. Maintain and protect the curing seal for seven days. 5. Protect finished portions of the cement -stabilized base course that are used by equipment in the construction of an adjoining section to prevent marring or damaging of the completed Work. Protect the stabilized area from freezing during the curing period. H. Opening to Traffic 1. Do not permit any traffic or equipment on the finished surface of the base course until the prime has hardened enough so that it does not pick up under traffic. For the first seven days after priming, restrict traffic to lightweight vehicles such as passenger cars and pickup trucks. Do not allow vehicles with an average axle load exceeding 20,000 pounds (9Mg) on the unfinished base at any time. 2. Correct any failures caused by traffic at no additional cost to the Department. I. Protection of Course Maintain the base course until the Engineer determines that it has sufficiently cured and is ready to be covered with the pavement course. Make repairs specified in Subsection 300.3.06.13, whenever defects appear. This preservation action does not relieve the Contractor of his responsibility to maintain the Work until final acceptance as specified in Section 105. 301.3.06 Quality Acceptance A. Compaction Tests 1. Determine the maximum dry density from representative samples of compacted material, according to GDT 19 or GDT 67. 2. Determine the in-place density of finished courses according to GDT 20, GDT 21 or GDT 59 , as soon as possible after compaction, but before the cement sets. B. Gradation Test Ensure that the gradation of the completely mixed cement -stabilized base course meets the requirements of Subsection 301.3.04.13.2. C. Finished Surface 17-PW7 Resurfacing and Reconstruction and Intersection Improvement Project Check the finished surface of the cement -stabilized base course transversely. 2. Check the surface using a 15 ft (4.5 m) straightedge parallel to the centerline. Additionally, use one of the following tools: a. A template, cut true to the required cross-section and set with a spirit level on non-superelevated sections 1.) A system of ordinates, measured from a stringline • A surveyor's level 3. Ensure that ordinates measured from the bottom of the template, stringline, or straightedge, to the surface do not exceed 1/2 in (12 mm) at any point. 4. Correct any variations from these requirements immediately according to Subsection 300.3.06.B, "Repairing Defects. " C. Thickness Tolerances 1. Thickness Measurements Determine the thickness of the cement -stabilized base course, by making as many checks as necessary to determine the average thickness, but not less than one check per 1000 feet (300m) per 2 lanes. 2. Excess Thickness a. Determine the average thickness per linear mile (kilometer) from all measurements within each mile (kilometer) increment. • Ensure that the average thickness does not exceed the specified thickness by more than 1/2 in (13 mm). c. If the basis of payment is per cubic yard (meter), and the average thickness for any mile (kilometer) increment exceeds the allowable %2 in (13 mm) tolerance, the excess quantity in that increment will be deducted from the Contractor's payments. d. The excess quantity is calculated by multiplying the average thickness that exceeds the allowable '/2 in (13 mm) tolerance by the surface area of the base, as applicable. E. Strength 1. Ensure that the strength of the completed cement -stabilized base course is at least 300psi (20700a), as determined from testing the unconfined compressive strength of cores from the completed course in accordance with GDT 86. 2. If a strength test falls below 300psi (20700a), do the following: a. Isolate the affected areas by securing additional cores every 75 feet (23m) on each side of the failing area. b. Average all compressive strengths in the affected area to determine the basis for corrective work according to the following table or the Engineer's directions. Compressive Strength Corrective Work 300 psi (2070 kPa) or greater None 200 psi (1380 kPa) to 299 psi (2069 kPa) 6" & 8" (150mm & 200m m) base — add 135lbs/yd2 (75kg/m2) asphaltic concrete Less than 200 psi (1380kPa) Reconstruct affected area Notes: 1) Ensure that a corrected area requiring asphaltic concrete is at least 150ft (45m) long and covers the full width of the cement -stabilized base surface. 2) Perform corrective work requiring asphaltic concrete or reconstruction at no additional cost to the Department. 17-PW7 Resurfacing and Reconstruction and Intersection Improvement Project 301.4 Measurement A.

NOTARY PUBLIC [NOTARY SEAL] My Commission Expires: REFERENCE EXHIBIT A A. Defined Terms. Terms used in this Agreement shall have their ordinary meaning, unless otherwise defined below or elsewhere in the Contract Documents. (i) "Substantial Completion" means when the Work or designated portion thereof is complete in accordance with the Contract Documents so that any remaining Work includes only (1) Minor Items that can be completed or corrected within the following thirty (30) calendar days, (2) Permitted Incomplete Work that will be completed by the date agreed upon by the Parties, and (3) any Warranty Work. Substantial Completion shall require complete operation of all applicable building systems including, but not limited to, mechanical, electrical, plumbing, fire protection, fire alarm, telecom, data, security, elevators, life safety; and accessibility (if any). (ii) "Minor Item" means a portion or element of the Work that can be totally complete within thirty (30) calendar days. (iii) "Permitted Incomplete Work" means Work that isincomplete through no fault of the Contractor, as determined by the City in its sole discretion. (iv) "Final Completion's means when the Work has been completed in accordance with terms and conditions of the Contract Documents. B. Payment for Work Completed and Costs Incurred. City agrees to pay the Contractor for the Work performed and costs incurred by Contractor upon certification by the Contract Administrator and the City that the Work was actually performed and costs actually incurred in accordance with this Agreement. Payment shall be based on the value of the Work completed, as provided in the Contract Documents, plus the value of materials and equipment suitably stored, insured, and protected at the construction site, and, only if approved in writing by the City (which approval shall be given at the sole discretion of the City), such materials and equipment suitably stored, insured, and protected off site at a location approved by the City in writing, less retainage (as described below). Compensation for Work performed and reimbursement for costs incurred shall be paid to the Contractor upon receipt and approval by the City of invoices setting forth in detail the Work performed and costs incurred, along with all supporting documents required by the Contract Documents or requested by the City to process the invoice. Invoices shall be submitted on a monthly basis, and such invoices shall reflect costs incurred versus costs budgeted.. Each invoice shall be accompanied by an Interim Waiver and Release upon Payment (or a Waiver and Release upon final payment in the case of the invoice for final payment) procured by the Contractor from all subcontractors in accordance with O.C.G.A. § 44-1.4-366. The final invoice shall also be accompanied by the Final Affidavit shown in Exhibit "F" of this Agreement. The City shall pay the Contractor within thirty (30) calendar days after approval of the invoice by City staff, less any retainage as described in Section D below. No payments will be made for unauthorized work. Payment will be sent to the designated address by U.S. Mail only, payment will not be hand -delivered, though the Contractor may arrange to pick up payments directly from the City or may make written requests for the City to deliver payments to the Contractor by Federal Express delivery at the Contractor's expense. C. Evaluation of Payment Requests. The Contract Administrator will evaluate the Contractor's applications for payment and will either issue to the City a Certificate for Payment (with a copy of the Contractor's application for payment) for such amount as the Contract Administrator determines is properly due, or notify the Contractor and City in writing of the Contract Administrator's reasons for withholding certification in whole or in part. The Contract Administrator may reject Work that does not conform to the Contract Documents and may withhold a Certificate of Payment in whole or in part, to the extent reasonably necessary to protect the City. When the reasons for withholding certification are removed, certification will be made for amounts previously withheld. Even following a Certificate of Payment; the City shall have the right to refuse payment of any invoice or part thereof that is not properly supported, or where requests for payment for Work or costs are in excess of the actual Work performed or costs incurred, or where the Work product provided is unacceptable or not in conformity with the Contract Documents, as determined by the City in its sole discretion. The City shall pay each such invoice or portion thereof as approved, provided that neither the approval or payment of any such invoice, nor partial or entire use or occupancy of the Project by the City, shall be considered to be evidence of performance by the Contractor to the point indicated by such invoice, or of receipt or acceptance by the City of Work covered by such invoice., where such work is not in accordance with the Contract Documents. D. Final Payment and Retainage. The City and Contractor shall comply with the provisions of O.C.G.A. § 13-10-80. The Contractor through each invoice may request payment of no more than ninety percent (90%) of that portion of the Work completed during the term covered by such invoice until fifty percent (50%) of the Maximum Contract Price, as may be adjusted, is due and the manner of completion of the Work and its progress are reasonably satisfactory to the City. Payment for the remaining ten percent (10%) of Work completed and covered by such invoices shall be retained by the City until Substantial Completion. Once fifty percent (50%) of the Maximum Contract Price, as may be adjusted, is due and the manner of completion of the Work and its progress are reasonably satisfactory to the City, no additional retainage shall be withheld, except as provided below. All amounts retained by the City shall be held as a lump sum until Substantial Completion of the Work, regardless of earlier completion of individual component(s) of the Work; provided, however, that, at the discretion of the City and with the written approval of the Contractor, the retainage of each subcontractor may be released separately as the subcontractor completes his or her work. If, after discontinuing the retention, the City determines that the Work is unsatisfactory or has fallen behind schedule, retention may be resumed at the previous level. If retention is resumed by the City, the Contractor and subcontractors shall be entitled to resume withholding retainage accordingly. At Substantial Completion of the Work and as the Contract Administrator determines the Work to be reasonably satisfactory, the City shall, within 30 days after the invoice and other appropriate documentation as may be required by the Contract Documents are provided to the City, pay the retainage to the Contractor. If at that time there are any remaining incomplete Minor Items or Permitted Incomplete Work, an amount equal to 200 percent of the value of each Minor Item or Permitted Incomplete Work, as detennined by the Contract Administrator in its sole discretion, shall be withheld until such item, items or work are completed. The reduced retainage shall be shared by the Contractor and subcontractors as their interests may appear. The Contractor shall, within ten (10) days from its receipt of retainage from the City, pass through payments to subcontractors and shah reduce each subcontractor's retainage in the same manner as the Contractor's retainage is reduced by the City; provided, however, that the value of each subcontractor's work complete and in place equals fifty percent (50%) of his or her subcontract value, including approved Change Orders and other additions to the subcontract value; provided, further, that the work of the subcontractor is proceeding satisfactorily and the subcontractor has provided or provides such satisfactory reasonable assurances of continued performance and financial responsibility to complete his or her work including any warranty work as the Contractor in his or her reasonable discretion may require, including, but not limited to, a payment and performance bond. The subcontractor shall, within ten (10) days from the subcontractor's receipt of retainage from the Contractor, pass through payments to lower tier subcontractors and shall reduce each lower tier subcontractor's retainage in the same manner as the subcontractor's retainage is reduced by the Contractor; provided, however, that the value of each lower tier subcontractor's work complete and in place equals fifty percent (50%) of his or her subcontract value, including approved Change Orders and other additions to the subcontract value; provided, further, that the work of the lower tier subcontractor is proceeding satisfactorily and the lower tier subcontractor has provided or provides such satisfactory reasonable assurances of continued performance and financial responsibility to complete his or her work including any warranty work as the subcontractor in his or her reasonable discretion may require, including, but not limited to, a payment and performance bond. Final payment of any retained amounts to the Contractor shall be made after certification by the Contract Administrator that the Work has been satisfactorily completed and is accepted in accordance with the Agreement and Contract Documents. Neither final payment nor any remaining retainage shall become due until the Contractor submits to the Contract Administrator (1) an affidavit (as exemplified in Exhibit "F" of this agreement) that payrolls, bills for materials and equipment, and other indebtedness connected with the Work for which the City or City property might be responsible or encumbered (less amounts withheld by City) have been paid or otherwise satisfied, (2) a certificate evidencing that insurance, required by the Contract Documents to remain in force after final payment, is currently in effect and will not be canceled or allowed to expire until at least thirty (30) calendar days prior written notice has been given to the City; (3) a written statement that the Contractor knows of no substantial reason that the insurance will not be renewable to cover the period required by the Contract Documents, (4) consent of surety, if any, to final payment, (5) a release or waiver of liens, claims, security interests, and encumbrances by all subcontractors and material suppliers, and (6), if required by the City, other data establishing payment or satisfaction of obligations, such as receipts, to the extent and in such form as may be designated by the City. If a subcontractor or material supplier refuses to furnish a release or waiver as required by the City, the Contractor may furnish a bond satisfactory to the City to indemnify the City against such lien. If such lien remains unsatisfied after payments are made, the Contractor shall refund to the City all money that the City may be compelled to pay in discharging such hien; including all costs and reasonable attorneys' fees. Acceptance of final payment by the Contractor, a subcontractor or material supplier shall constitute a waiver of claims by that payee, except those claims previously made in writing and identified by that payee as unsettled at the time of final application for payment. "EXHIBIT J" KEY PERSONNEL The following individuals are designated as Key Personnel under this Agreement and, as such, are necessary for the successful prosecution of the Work: Individual Position N/A CLAY MOONEY (770) 655-0000 PROJECT MANAGER CURTIS BOWMAN (770) 387-6414 GENERAL SUPERINTENDENT DAVID LINDSAY (678) 848-7404 SUPERINTENDENT ANTHONY GANSER (770) 547-5581 SUPERINTENDENT City will be administering the Agreement, RESERVED Please see supplementary conditions referenced in Exhibit A, and conditions listed below: Contractor Responsibility for Project and Worksite During Construction Maintenance of Worksite: The Contractor shall maintain the Project and the surrounding worksite from the Commencement Date until Final Completion of the Project. Such maintenance duties include, but shall not be limited to, continuous and effective prosecution of the Work day by day with adequate equipment and forces to ensure that the roadway or structures within the Project worksite are kept in satisfactory condition at all times. All existing guard rail, signs, pavement, pavement markings, bridge handrail, traffic control devices and other safety appurtenances that are not subject to removal or relocation in the completion of the Work shall also be maintained in a safe and satisfactory condition. The Contractor shall not allow vegetative growth at any time to obstruct signs, delineation, traffic movements, or sight distance. TheContractor shall, as necessary to keep the worksite clean and clear of all litter and debris, clean up and remove litter and debris. The Contractor shall, at intervals not to exceed 6 months, remove all weeds from around guard rail, barrier, poles, standards, utility facilities, and other structures, and cut ortrim trees, bushes, or tall grass. These requirements shall apply to all areas within the Project worksite (i.e., the Project termini and lateral limits). All maintenance costs during construction and before the Work is accepted will be included in the Maximum Contract Price (and any individual flat fee or unit prices), and the Contractor will not be paid any additional compensation for such maintenance services. 2. Repair of Worksite and Private Property In the Case of Damage: From the Commencement Date until the Final Completion, the Contractor shall take every precaution against injury or damage to any part of the Project and the surrounding worksite by any cause whatsoever. The Contractor shall rebuild, repair, restore, and make good all injuries or damages to any portion of the Project or the worksite (with the exception of injury or damage caused by the sole negligence of the Owner) before Final Completion and shall bear the expense thereof. In case of suspension of Work from any cause whatsoever, the Contractor shall be responsible for the Project and shall take such precautions as may be necessary to prevent damage to the Project, provide for normal drainage and shall erect any necessary temporary structures, signs, or other facilities at its expense.

The Contractor shall also take every precaution against injury or damage to private property in or around the worksite and shall repair or replace any private property damaged (directly or indirectly) by the Work. For purposes of progress payments and retainage calculation, and except where otherwise approved by the City in writing, damage to the Project or the worksite shall be repaired to the satisfaction of the City before the Work shall be deemed to have increased in value such that any further progress payments are due to the Contractor. Further, except where otherwise approved by the City in writing, any damage to private property in or around the worksite, which damage is caused by the Contractor, shall be repaired or otherwise addressed to the satisfaction of the City before the Work shall be deemed to have increased in value such that any further progress payments are due to the Contractor. 3. Roadway Maintenance and Repair Duties in Relation to Traffic Activity: If the Project requires that traffic be maintained through the Project worksite during the prosecution of the Work, the Contractor shall assume all responsibility for damage to the Project and surrounding worksite caused by such traffic until Final Completion of the Work. If the Work requires that traffic be relocated to an alternate roadway or the Project is constructed on a new location, the Contractor shall be responsible for all damage to the Project and the worksite until the City directs that the Project be opened to traffic. At that time, the Contractor will no longer be responsible for traffic -related damage to the Project or worksite other than damage attributable to the Contractor's actions or inadequate construction.

Previously, this type of request had been applied for within the Zoning Ordinance as a Use Permit. Staff notes that this request is not for a traditional monopole tower, but for antenn as to be installed on the roof of One Verizon and Three Verizon office buildings within the Verizon Wireless campus at the corner of Deerfield Parkway and Morris Road. This type of equipment nonetheless still requires a full review and approval by the Mayor and City Council. Verizon Wireless is requesting to install two sets of antennas with two antennas on One Verizon and one antenna on Three Verizon. The purpose is to provide 4G LTE technology for wireless voice and data services, especially for the Verizon Wireless campus itself. Verizon states that capacity issues on the Windward and Leeward (On the east side of GA 400) sites affect network performance and customer experience. Placing antennas on the roof of the Verizon Headquarter buildings will help alleviate the congestion by absorbing the traffic from employees and users in the parking lots and exterior areas on/near the Verizon Campus. In regards to the existing LTE coverage with the antennas, the dominant signal provided by the proposed antennas on the roof of the buildings will allow customers to benefit from the improved coverage with faster speeds and better overall performance. It will also will improve the Windward and Leeward sites further improving the network and customer experience. Each antenna has a 12’x12’ lease area on the roof. The height of each of the proposed antennas is 13 feet in height. The rooftop height of both buildings is 30.8 feet and once installed, the top of the antenna will be 43.8 feet. This request was first presented at the May 24, 2017 Planning Commission Meeting. Just prior to the meeting, the City Attorney determined that instead of a Concurrent Variance, a “waiver” would be required pursuant to the Telecommunication Ordinance and therefore the revised would need to be re-advertised accordingly. At the May 24, 2017 Planning Commission Meeting, the request was deferred to June 28, 2017 to allow for the required advertising. Prepared by the Community Development Department for the City of Milton Mayor and City Council Meeting on July 24, 2017 (First Presentation on July 10, 2017) 7/6/2017 Page 10 of 14 T17-01 Survey of Requests Waiver #1 - Waiver from Section 54-6(b) to allow roof top antennas to be located less than 3,500 feet from an existing telecommunications facility.  Staff has discovered that the proposed roof antenna is less than 3,500 feet (approximately 2,974 feet) from an existing facility located at 12910 Hwy 9.  Waiver #2 - Waiver from Section 54-6(h) to allow the rooftop antennas and associated structures to project 13 feet rather than the maximum ten feet above the roofline.  The applicant has requested a waiver for the height (no antenna can project more than 10 feet above the roof line). These waivers may be achieved through approval action by the Mayor and City Council under the provisions of the Telecommunications Ordinance. STAFF ANALYSIS OF REQUIREMENTS IN THE TELECOMMUNICATION ORDINANCE (CHAPTER 54 OF THE CITY CODE) General Requirements – Sec. 54-5 The applicant’s submittal appears to meet the requirements as listed in Sec. 54-5 of the Telecommunications Ordinance. Staff notes that there is not a need for a landscape plan as the antennas are on top of a building and existing landscaping provides adequate screening. Telecommunications facility permits shall be reviewed by the Mayor and City Council in accordance with the standards set forth in this chapter. Approval of any application for the construction of a new tower or placement of an antenna shall be based on consideration of the following factors: (1) Demonstrated need for proximity to residential structures and residential district boundaries: The proposed antennas are located within a 49 acre office park, with Lake Deerfield development located to the northeast, which is approximately 515 feet away from the closest roof top antenna. In addition, based on the balloon test and photo simulations, the proposed antenna will not be seen within the property when standing in the same direction of the townhomes. Prepared by the Community Development Department for the City of Milton Mayor and City Council Meeting on July 24, 2017 (First Presentation on July 10, 2017) 7/6/2017 Page 11 of 14 T17-01 (2) Demonstrated need for the proposed height of the tower: The applicant has submitted the RF study and has demonstrated that the proposed 13 foot high antenna on top of the buildings will provide the needed coverage for this location. See coverage maps above. (3) Minimal impact on the use of adjacent properties: It is Staff’s opinion that the type and size of proposed antenna, will have a minimum impact on the use of adjacent properties as demonstrated by the results of the balloon tests. (4) Surrounding topography, tree coverage and foliage that buffer the potential visual impact of the telecommunications facility: The existing mature trees and foliage surrounding the subject buildings and the size of the antenna provide more than adequate buffer from the surrounding uses. (5) Design of the facility, with particular reference to design characteristics which have the effect of reducing or eliminating visual obtrusiveness, to include consideration of s tealth technology installations: The antennas will be painted black or match the roof color as recommended by the Design Review Board at its May 2, 2017 meeting, to blend in with the parapet and ballast mounted on the roof tops of both buildings. (6) Proposed ingress and egress: There will be no ingress and egress required as the service entrances already e xist. (7) Availability of suitable existing towers, other structures, or alternative/emerging technologies (microcells) not requiring the use of towers or structures: This applicant stated that this request is specifically for the Verizon owned building and no other structures or towers were considered. (8) Demonstrated need for the telecommunications facility at the specified site: The applicant’s Radio Frequency Design Engineer’s presentation which is part of the application demonstrates the need for this request. Please see coverage maps above. Also, Prepared by the Community Development Department for the City of Milton Mayor and City Council Meeting on July 24, 2017 (First Presentation on July 10, 2017) 7/6/2017 Page 12 of 14 T17-01 there are no other facilities within a half mile of the subject site as shown on the following map.

(First Presentation – July 10, 2017, Work Session – July 17, 2017) Re: Text Amendment – Chapter 20 of the City Code – Noise ____________________________________________________________________________ Department Recommendation: The Community Development Department recommends approval of the proposed text amendment. Executive Summary: The existing Noise Control ordinance is very difficult to administer and enforce based on the required maximum noise levels [db(A)] for specific times during the day and the change in amount of noise allowed. In addition, the existing ordinance does not address specifically amplified sound, sounds produced by animals or moving vehicles. This proposed ordinance will replace the existing ordinance in its entirety. The basis of this proposed ordinance was from Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department where Chief Austin previously served and successfully administered and enforced the ordinance. Staff has provided drafts of the ordinance to various departments within the City including the Police Department, Code Enforcement and the Communications Department for their feedback. The City Attorney’s office has also worked closely with Staff on the proposed draft. Staff held a Community Zoning Information Meeting in May where only City Staff was present. The proposed ordinance was presented at the June 28, 2017 Planning Commission Meeting and it was recommended approval by a vote of 6 -0. There were no members of the public present at the meeting. The draft provided to you is new in its entirety with the red-lines indicating the City Attorney’s and the Planning Commission’s recommended changes resulting from their June 28th meeting. Staff has also provided the existing Noise Ordinance for your reference. Below is a chart comparing the two ordinances and their differences. Comparison of Existing Nosie Ordinance and Proposed Noise Ordinance Issue Existing Ordinance Proposed Ordinance General Noise Sec. 20-660 – Not permitted based on Complicated source and receiving of sound Sec. 20-657 – Prohibited when creating “unreasonably loud and disturbing noise” with no minimum sound Sounds impacting residential life Sec. 20-680, 20-681- Minimum dBA for residential and then modifications with complicated change in noise level and duration.

At the initial meeting, the City of Milton Mayor and City Council and the business shall review the information that formed the basis for the designation and any evidence or information concerning the complained of noise provided by the business. Following the initial meeting, the City of Milton Mayor and City Council shall determine whether a mitigation plan is warranted. If the City of Milton Mayor and City Council determines that a mitigation plan is not warranted, it shall notify the business and the City of Milton Police Department of that determination and no further action shall be taken under this section. (d) If the City of Milton Mayor and City Council determines that a mitigation plan is warranted, the City of Milton Mayor and City Council and the business shall together develop and sign a noise mitigation plan. The plan may include, among other things: (1) Restrictions on days of week or hours of noise producing activity; (2) Placement, orientation, and operation of sound producing activity or equipment; (3) Structural changes including but not limited to sound attenuation and baffling; (4) Self monitoring and reporting requirements; (5) A schedule for implementation; and (6) A schedule for review for possible revision or termination of the plan.

Should a business designated as non- cooperative cure the basis for the designation, the City of Milton Mayor and City Council shall remove the designation and notify the business and City of Milton Police Department of that determination. (f) In the event that a noise enforcement action is taken against a business that has been designated a chronic noise producer, evidence regarding the business' participation in the development and implementation of and compliance with the noise mitigation plan shall be relevant to any prosecution or administrative or judicial review or appeal of the enforcement action. Specifically, the business' participation and compliance shall be a mitigating factor and may, but is not required to be a justific ation for dismissing the enforcement action. A business that has been designated by the City of Milton Mayor and City Council as non-cooperative shall not be entitled to the benefits of this subsection unless the designation has been removed. (g) Appeals. A business that has been designated a chronic noise producer or non-cooperative may appeal such designation within ten days after receiving notice of such designation. Appeals shall be heard by the city manager or the city manager's designee who shall not be an employee of the City of Milton Police Department or member of the City of Milton Mayor and City Council. The appellant shall have the right to present evidence at said hearing. A ruling on appeal is subject to review in the superior court of Fulton County by proceedings in the nature of certiorari.

A violation of a continuing nature, each day during which it occurs, shall constitute an additional, separate and distinct offense. Sec. 20-664 – Variances (a) Variances may be granted to any person from any requirement of this article if findings are made that the immediate compliance with such requirement cannot be achieved because of special circ umstances rendering immediate compliance unreasonable in light of economic or physical factors, encroachment upon an existing noise source or because of the nonavailability of feasible technology or control methods.

Department Recommendation: Approve the amendment as presented. Executive Summary: Each department is responsible for reviewing their policies to ensure they remain relevant, effective and efficient. Upon review of our purchasing policy and, in particular, the professional services definition, we have found when comparing it with other jurisdictions, that it is more restrictive and, at times, has hindered our ability to operate efficiently. The city’s current definition reads: “For the purposes of this paragraph, the term “professional services” shall mean services requiring a specialized bachelor’s degree or a graduate degree and also requiring licensing or certification by a Georgia statewide or national authorizing entity including, but not limited to, engineering and architectural services, accounting s ervices and legal services.” We would like to bring the definition in-line with what our neighboring cities include in their policies. The change would remove the requirement for degrees and licensure or certification to recognize that not all professions require both, such as engineers. The proposed definition allows for individuals or firms that have “expertise due to advanced, specialized education, training, licensure or skill customarily acquired either by prolonged course of study or equivalent experience.” Also, our current policy allows for an exemption of the competitive procurement procedures for professional services when the value of the service is $30,000 or less. In our survey of other cities, the limit was anywhere from $25,000 to $250,000. We are proposing to increase the limit to $50,000 to match our threshold for competitive bidding through sealed bids or requests for proposals. Doing so would give staff the ability to obtai n professional services in a timely, more efficient manner while maintaining our policy of being sound financial stewards of the funds our citizens entrust us with. Funding and Fiscal Impact: N/A Alternatives: The alternative would be to keep the professional services definition as is or to propose a different definition.

The city may, in its sole discretion, utilize competitive procurement methods in the procurement of professional services, irrespective of the exemption noted above. For the purposes of this Division, the term “professional services” shall mean services requiring the exercise of substantial discretion and independent judgment, rendered by an individual or firm having expertise due to advanced, specialized education, training, licensure or skill customarily acquired either by a prolonged course of study or equivalent experience. “Professional services” include certified public accountancy, actuarial services, architecture, landscape architecture, interior design, licensed or accredited appraising, licensed or accredited financial analysis providing opinions of value, professional engineering, veterinary medicine, land surveying, and law. “Professional services” generally do not include skilled or licensed trades such as the installation, maintenance and repair of HVAC, plumbing, electrical wiring, and vehicles.

VAN SANT JEFFREY J. COSTOLNICK MOLLY N. ESSWEIN SAM P. VANVOLKENBURGH ◊ JEFFREY M. STRICKLAND -------------------------- OF COUNSEL: LARRY W. RAMSEY, JR. ELIZABETH M. WHITWORTH MEMORANDUM To: Ken Jarrard From: Sarah VanVolkenburgh Date: September 3, 2016 Subject: Tree Maintenance Within City of Milton Right of Way QUESTION PRESENTED A City of Milton resident recently voiced concern about safely exiting her driveway where mature trees growing on City right of way limit her sight distance. This resident’s driveway enters the street on the inside of a curve such that she is unable to see o ncoming traffic from either direction easily, and the presence of mature trees exacerbate the resident’s visibility issues. The City possesses various means of addressing this problem, including removing the trees in question, but the City would prefer to preserve mature trees if at all possible. Thus, the City has inquired into its liability if these trees limit sight visibility to such a degree as to cause or contribute to an accident. SHORT ANSWER The City must maintain its streets and adjacent right of way in good repair, which includes maintenance of trees and other objects located on City property. Once the City has notice of a potential safety concern caused by trees on its property that limit sight distance, the City should act promptly to redress the issue. If the City fails to correct such a defect, the City may face a claim that it failed to fulfil its ministerial duty to keep city streets in good repair. Further, the City may potentially face claims for maintaining a nuisance. So long as the City can resolve the sight distance issue by some means other than removing mature trees, it may pursue such an option. However, the City should be prepared to remove mature trees if the safety of its residents permits no alternative. JARRARD & DAVIS, LLP Page 2 of 3 DISCUSSION As a general matter, municipalities like the City of Milton have a duty to maintain city streets. O.C.G.A. § 32-4-91(a) (“A municipality shall . . . maintain an adequate municipal street system and shall have control of and responsibility for all . . . maintenance, or other work related to the municipal street system.”). Further, “municipalities generally have a ministerial duty to keep their streets in repair, and they are liable for injuries resulting from defects after actual notice, or after the defect has existed for a sufficient length of time for notice to be inferred.” Roquemore v. City of Forsyth, 274 Ga. App. 420, 423, 617 S.E.2d 644 (2005). By contrast, a municipality enjoys sovereign immunity for defects in its streets where the municipality has not negligently constructed or maintained the street, or so long as the municipality has no actual notice of a defect “or when such defect has not existed for a sufficient length of time for notice thereof to be inferred.” O.C.G.A. § 32-4-93. Liability for known (or discoverable) street defects extends to unpaved areas of city right of way, including portions of city right of way upon which trees are located. See City of Fitzgerald v. Caruthers, 332 Ga. App. 731, 733-34, 774 S.E.2d 777, 779-80 (2015) (explaining that defects to city streets may include objects adjacent to or suspended over the street and confirming that a municipality, like any property owner, has a duty to inspect trees located on its property for obvious defects). See also Ga. Dep’t of Transp. v. Smith, 314 Ga. App. 412, 416, 724 S.E.2d 430, 434 (2012) (same), overruled on other grounds by Rivera v. Washington, 298 Ga. 770 (2016). In City of Fitzgerald v. Caruthers, a city employee sued the City of Fitzgerald after a decayed tree limb fell from a tree growing on city property, seriously injuring him. City of Fitzgerald, 332 Ga. App. at 732, 774 S.E.2d at 778. Although rotten tree limbs present a different hazard than trees that diminish sight distance, the case of City of Fitzgerald v. Caruthers demonstrates that a municipality may face liability pursuant to O.C.G.A. § 32-4-93 for trees growing within city right of way. Here, a City resident has advised the City’s Public Works Department that she has difficulty exiting her driveway, and a member of the Public Works Department concluded that trees growing on the City’s right of way contribute to the resident’s visibility i ssues. Thus, the City will likely be found to have actual notice of a defect (or at least a potential defect) in the safety of its streets. If the resident or some third party is injured as a result of obstructed sight distance caused by the trees, the City may face claims that it failed to fulfill its ministerial duty to maintain city streets in a safe condition in accordance with O.C.G.A. § 32-4-91. Additionally, municipalities may be liable for injuries resulting from the creation or maintenance of a nuisance. Hibbs v. City of Riverdale, 267 Ga. 337, 337, 478 S.E.2d 121, 122 (1996) (citing Thomasville v. Shank, 263 Ga. 624, 437 S.E.2d 306 (1993)). Although a nuisance theory of liability presents a different theory of liability than the negligent performance of a ministerial duty to maintain city streets, trees growing within city right-of-way that obstruct a driver’s view could potentially be characterized either a defect in city streets or as a nuisance. Indeed, courts have found that a municipality may be liable for creating or maintaining a nuisance where the municipality’s landscaping obstructs a clear view of a public road. See JARRARD & DAVIS, LLP Page 3 of 3 Fortner v. Town of Register, 278 Ga. 625, 627, 604 S.E.2d 175, 178 (2004). In Fortner v. Town of Register, the plaintiff alleged that the Town of Register had negligently failed to cut back overgrown landscaping the city had placed on a railroad right of way, obstructing the view of plaintiff’s husband, who was killed while attempting to drive over a rail crossing. Id. at 625. Specifically, the plaintiff in Fortner v. Town of Register argued that the town had violated O.C.G.A. § 32-6-51(b), which makes it unlawful “to erect, place, or maintain in a place or position visible from any public road any unauthorized . . . structure which,” among other things, “[o]bstructs a clear view from any public road . . .” or “interferes with the vision of drivers of motor vehicles.” While trees may certainly constitute a “structure” under the language of the statute, 278 Ga. at 627, it is questionable whether O.C.GA. § 32-6-51(b) could be used to support a nuisance claim under the facts of this case. A violation of the statute requires that the trees be “unauthorized,” which the Georgia Supreme Court has construed to mean “not only the placement or maintenance of structures which are prohibited by some statute, code, or local ordinance, but also those which lack any governmental authorization.” Id. at 628. In contrast to the landscaping in Fortner v. Town of Register, where the town had placed landscaping an another entity’s property (a railroad’s), the trees in question here are on city right of way. Thus, it would be difficult for a plaintiff to argue that these trees were somehow “unauthorized” by the City. In spite of the likely inapplicability of O.C.G.A. § 32-6-51(b), however, Fortner v. Town or Register demonstrates the City’s potential liability to a nuisance claim if it fails to take action. Regardless of the theory of liability, the City may preserve its sovereign immunity by ameliorating the resident’s driveway sight distance. In this regard, Section 48-412 of the Milton City Code and its associated Table 8 prescribe sight distance criteria based on the speed limit and number of lanes on the city street. While removing the trees that obstruct the resident’s view is certainly an option, the City might also consider alternatives, such as relocating the resident’s driveway to a location that has clear views of oncoming traffic. CONCLUSION Where trees growing on City right of way obstruct a resident’s sight distance from her driveway, the City faces possible claims that it has failed to safely maintain its streets in violation of O.C.G.A. § 32-4-93 or that by permitting the trees to remain, it is maintaining a nuisance. As the resident has complained to the City about her limited sight distance and the City’s Department of Public Works has concluded that the trees are obstructing the resident’s view, the City has notice of the potential defect or nuisance, and thus the City would have a difficult time arguing that it was unaware of the possible danger posed by the trees. To preserve its sovereign immunity (and to mitigate the possibility of a claim in the first place), the City should take steps to expand the resident’s line of sight from her driveway to a safe distance. While the City is understandably hesitant to remove mature trees like those in question, the City should carefully weigh the risk of liability against the monetary and aesth etic cost of tree removal. If an alternative solution would permit the resident to safely exit her property (e.g., by relocating the driveway), the City may pursue such an option.
