Specifically, HB 1 176 changed the definition of "child service organization personnel" to include volunteers. The new law defines ''child service organization personnel" as follows: "Child service organization personnel" means persons employed by or volunteering at a business or an organization, whether public, private, for profit, not for profit, or voluntary, that provides care, treatment, education, training, supervision, coaching, counseling, recreational programs, or shelter to children."

The Georgia Department of Public Health is referring everyone to the "Heads Up - Concussion in Youth Sports" program offered by the CDC. The following is a link to the program: hffos://www.cdc.gov/headsup/youfhsports/training/index.html It is the policy of the Department to educate coaches, referees, employees and instructors of at -risk activities, trainers, parents, and participants of the signs, symptoms and behaviors consistent with sports - and activity -induced concussions. Further, the Department requires that any participant, under the age of 18, suspected of a concussion or head injury must be removed from the activity and it is recommended that the participant be examined by a licensed health care provider. If a participant is deemed by a licensed health care provider to have sustained a concussion, Department personnel or other designated personnel (coaches, referees, instructors of at -risk activities, trainers, and parents) shall not permit the participant to return to play until he or she receives documented clearance from a licensed health care provider for a full or graduated return to play. In accordance with the established City policies, each volunteer is required to participate in training on compliance with this law. The training is only required one time per volunteer, but a copy of the completed certification must be provided to the City. 121 7 COACH CERTIFICATION AND TRAINING Coach certification and training requirements vary by the sport and will be addressed under the Facility Use Agreement. In addition, it is the responsibility of the Association to ensure that all of their coaches, volunteer and professional, head coaches and assistants, complete the following basic training programs and background check requirements before being permitted to coach a team. Association must provide documentation of such training to the City upon request. • Background Check • Concussion Awareness Training • Mandatory Child Abuse Reporting Requirement • Weather Policies and Procedures • Heat and Hydration Guidelines • Cold Weather Policy 8 SELECTION OF COACHES Associations are responsible to select qualified coaches for their program. Each Association shall establish their own criteria to determine qualifications of coaches, such as coaching experience, past playing experience, etc. 9 FEES AND CHARGES Note: Each Association will adhere to fee policies set by the City, including fees that may not yet be currently established. Registration Fees All registration fees shall be fair and equitable to all participants.

The agreement also provides the City first priority access to rent indoor facilities for basketball programming and other activities. That agreement expires in May 2018. In 2014, the City entered into a second agreement, this one for ten years, with FCBE to develop two more fields and use the expanded outdoor recreational space at Northwestern Middle School. This agreement expires in May 2024. This First Amendment to the second agreement adds the large rectangular space that was covered in the first agreement to the second agreement. This gives us control of all three fields at Northwestern Middle School, under one agreement, through May 2024. Funding and Fiscal Impact: The City has agreed to continue to provide the maintenance of the outdoor facilities for the remaining six years of this agreement. Under this revised agreement, the City is obligated to resurface the Gymnasium Floor once a year for the next six years at a cost of $2,200/year. This will also directly benefit our basketball program. Alternatives: The facilities at Northwestern Middle School are vital to supporting the Girls Lacrosse programming offered by the Parks and Recreation Department and the projected growth over the next six years. We currently do not have any other options if these facilities are not available to the City.

The applicant is requesting a Use Permit for an Alternative Senior Housing facility within an expanded existing house with a total of 2,000 square feet. The primary house will also have a ten foot deep porch along the front façade. In addition, the applicant proposes to build a 1,500 square foot guest house and a detached garage. SITE PLAN ANALYSIS Based on the applicant’s site plan submitted on April 16, 2018, the Community Development Department offers the following considerations: DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS – T-2 – Deerfield Form Based Code Development Standards Proposed Development Lot Width – 100 foot minimum 199.8 feet Lot Coverage 20% maximum (12,825 sq.ft.) 11,664 sq.ft. Frontage Buildout – Not Applicable N/A Front Setback – 60 ft. minimum 60 feet* Side Setback – 25 ft. min Exceeds the minimum on both sides Rear Setback – 50 ft. min Exceeds the minimum Building Height – Maximum 3 stories 1 story Prepared by the Community Development Department for the Mayor and City Council Meeting on May 21, 2018 (First Presentation on May 7, 2018) *Based on the revised Site Plan submitted on April 16, 2018 5/3/2018 Page 9 of 14 U18-04/VC18-05 VC18-04 – Request to reduce the 60 foot primary setback to 50 feet where the house encroaches (Chapter 64, Art 20 Table 11.f.1). At the Design Review Board meeting, it was suggested that the applicant relocate the addition to the house to the north and not to expand to the west which would require the reduction in the front yard setback. In lieu of the addition along the front of the existing house, the applicant has proposed a 10 foot deep porch, which is permitted to encroach into the front yard setback.* The concurrent variance is no longer needed and therefore, Staff recommends WITHDRAWAL of VC18-04. DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS – Alternative Senior Housing Use Permit Based on the requirements pursuant to Sec. 64-1844, the site plan and the applicant’s letter of intent indicate compliance with the development standards for the Use Permit. ENVIRONMENTAL SITE ANALYSIS In reference to the Environmental Impacts to the site, it satisfies the requirement of Section 64-2126. The applicant has addressed the various issues outlined in the ESA report. The proposed site does contain a small area of wetlands in the easternmost portion of the property. There are no floodplains, steep slopes, historical sites or sensitive plant and animal species. The applicant has included the tree survey on the site plan. ARBORIST COMMENTS Development will need to meet Tree Canopy Plan required per Sec. 60-28 of Tree Canopy Ordinance adopted 2/5/18. CITY OF MILTON FIRE MARSHAL The Fire Marshal has no objection to the proposed site plan. All development plans and building plans will be reviewed by the Fire Marshal prior to any permits being issued. TRANSPORTATION ENGINEER  22 Daily trips. Does not require turn lanes based on turn lane warrant thresholds.  Driveways do not appear to meet required vertical sight.  Sidewalk to be provided due to proximity to school. Prepared by the Community Development Department for the Mayor and City Council Meeting on May 21, 2018 (First Presentation on May 7, 2018) *Based on the revised Site Plan submitted on April 16, 2018 5/3/2018 Page 10 of 14 U18-04/VC18-05 PUBLIC INVOLVEMENT On March 27, 2018 the applicant and engineer were present at the Community Zoning Information Meeting (CZIM) held at Community Place at City Hall . There were approximately 5 residents who were in attendance at the meeting. They voiced the following concern regarding the proposed alternative senior housing facility: The proposed development may “mission creep” and become larger and may include the property to the south in the future. PUBLIC PARTICIPATION REPORT The applicant held the participation meeting on Monday, April 9, 2018 at 5:00 p.m. at 401 S. Main Street, Suite A5 in Alpharetta. No one attended the meeting. CITY OF MILTON DESIGN REVIEW BOARD COURTESY REVIEW – APRIL 10, 2018 Comments:  Be aware of requirements for accessibility in new house: door widths, grab bars, turning radius.  Possibly put residents in new house instead of the existing house.  Respect the frontage along Cogburn Road. Possibly limit addition or build to the side in order to stay out of front yard setback.  Area behind parking spaces requires 24 feet for pullout. USE PERMIT CONSIDERATIONS In the interest of the public health, safety and welfare, the Mayor and City Council may exercise limited discretion in evaluating the site proposed for a use that requires a Use Permit. In exercising such discretion pertaining to the subject use, the Mayor and City Council shall consider each of the following as outlined in Sec. 64-1552 of the Zoning Ordinance: Use Permit Considerations. Staff has reviewed said items pertaining to the subject use, and offers the following comments: 1. Whether the proposed use is consistent with the land use or economic development plans adopted by the Mayor and City Council: The proposed development is located in the “T-2” land use category on the City of Milton Comprehensive Plan Update Map in the Deerfield Form Based Code. The proposed use permit for an “Alternative Senior Housing” is permitted within the T-2 Transect Zone. 2. Compatibility with land uses and zoning districts in the vicinity of the property for which the use permit is proposed: Prepared by the Community Development Department for the Mayor and City Council Meeting on May 21, 2018 (First Presentation on May 7, 2018) *Based on the revised Site Plan submitted on April 16, 2018 5/3/2018 Page 11 of 14 U18-04/VC18-05 The subject site is compatible with the adjacent and nearby land uses and zoning which include a mix of institutional uses and single family residences. The property to the north and south is zoned T-2 developed with single family residences. There is a Civic site located to the northeast and east, which is Cambridge High School. To the southeast, is T-2 developed with Stonecreek Church and to the south is a single family residence. On the west side of Cogburn Road is the City of Alpharetta, zoned Special Use with property permitted and constructed for a private school (Kings Ridge Christian Academy) and a soccer field for the school currently under consideration by the City of Alpharetta. In addition, there is a Use Permit for a church (not developed) and a single family residence zoned AG-1. 3. Whether the proposed use may violate local, state and/or federal statutes, ordinances or regulations governing land development: The proposed use does not appear to violate any ordinances or regulations governing land development. 4. The effect of the proposed use on traffic flow, vehicular and pedestrian, along adjoining streets: Based on the type of use and small scale of the proposed senior housing, there will be minimal impact on the traffic flow, vehicular and pedestrian, on Cogburn Road. 5. The location and number of off-street parking spaces; The off street parking is located behind the existing structure and in front of the guest house/and garage. Per the Zoning Ordinance parking shall be located to the side and rear of the principal structure , but outside minimum building setbacks or inside a garage. Below is a table indicating the required and provided number of parking spaces for the site. One (1) parking space per two (2) beds and one (1) parking space per two (2) employees including the owner/operator. (Sec 64-1844(2)(f.)) 8 beds 1 employee 4 parking spaces 1 parking space Total Required 5 spaces Total Provided 5 spaces (Of which 1 is handicapped) 6. The amount and location of open space: Prepared by the Community Development Department for the Mayor and City Council Meeting on May 21, 2018 (First Presentation on May 7, 2018) *Based on the revised Site Plan submitted on April 16, 2018 5/3/2018 Page 12 of 14 U18-04/VC18-05 The T-2 transect zone allows a maximum of 20 percent lot coverage. The parcel has 1,164 sq. ft. or 18 percent of lot coverage which meets this requirement. In addition, the rear portion (eastern side) is heavily vegetated with hardwood trees. 7. Protective screening: The type of use, alternative senior housing, does not require protective screening but Staff notes that there is a large stand of hardwood trees to the rear and some along the south and north property lines ranging in size from 15 to 32 inches in diameter at breast height. 8. Hours and manner of operation: Since the clients will reside in the house as well as the caretaker, the hours of operation will be 24 hours a day and 7 days a week. 9. Outdoor lighting: The applicant has not indicated the addition of lighting on the site. If lighting is proposed, it must comply with Section 4.12 of the Deerfield Form Based Code which requires light fixtures to have the light cut off below 90 degrees and the beam shall be cut off at 75 degrees, as well as other regulations that limit light pollution. 10. Ingress and egress to the property. The applicant has two existing curb cuts onto Cogburn Road. The Traffic Engineer has stated that the location of the curb cuts do not meet required vertical site distance. The applicant has stated that he will increase the height of the driveway in order to meet the vertical sight distance. The entrances will be upgraded to commercial entrances as well as widening the existing drive way between the entrances. Staff notes that the applicant/owner has already received a right-of-way encroachment permit to improve the drainage along Cogburn Road. CONCLUSION The proposed development of the alternative senior housing use permit is consistent with the City of Milton Comprehensive Plan Update suggestion of T-2 and consistent with the Use Permit Considerations. This proposal also provides additional choices for housing for the over 55 population within the City . Therefore, Staff recommends APPROVAL CONDITIONAL of U18-04. In addition, Staff recommends WITHDRAWAL of VC18-05.

The applicant is requesting a Use Permit for a 9,700 square foot day care facility with a maximum of 156 children. In addition, the applicant is requesting that the hours of operation be from 6:00 a.m. to 6:30 p.m., Monday through Friday. The Crabapple Form Based Code requires that this use obtain a Use Permit. SITE PLAN ANALYSIS Based on the applicant’s revised site plan submitted on April 10, 2018 to the Community Development Department offers the following considerations: DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS – T-4 Open – Crabapple Form Based Code Development Standards Proposed Development Lot Width – 18 ft. minimum and 96 ft. maximum 355 feet (Since this lot was in existence at the time of the adoption of the FBC, it is grandfathered and therefore does not have to meet these standards. Lot Coverage 70% maximum 72 % (A warrant has been requested, an administrative variance, to exceed the maximum.) Frontage Buildout – 50% minimum Does not meet, but since this lot was in existence at the time of the adoption of the FBC, it is grandfathered and therefore does not have to meet this standards. Front Setback – 10 ft min – 30 ft max 0 feet to 40 feet (A warrant has been requested, an administrative variance for the proposed setback.) Side Setback – 0 ft. min More than 0 feet Rear Setback – 3 ft. min More than 3 feet Building Height – Maximum 3 stories 1 story Prepared by the Community Development Department for the City of Milton Mayor and City Council on May 21, 2018 (First Presentation on May 7, 2018) 5/3/2018 Page 9 of 18 U18-06 Below, is the applicant’s request and considerations for each of the warrants: Request for Warrant – Front Setback: 0 feet to 40 feet Per Crabapple Form-Based Code Section 4.4.1 b, Table 10 states that for T4 zoning front building setback is to be 10’ minimum and 30’ maximum. If approved, this would not offend the intent of the code due to the majority of the frontage being just behind the maximum setback. The columns of the porte cochère will be 20 feet from the curb, thus allowing sufficient area between that and the street. The shape of the property along with the right-of-way taken on the northwestern corner of the property along Green Road pushes the building further back from the property line than desired. If granted, this will not cause a detriment to the public good or surrounding properties. Based on the above considerations, the above Warrant is approved for the Front setback to be 0 feet to 40 feet. Request for Warrant - Lot Coverage 72% maximum To meet the minimum requirements for parking on site, we are requesting a warrant on the max lot coverage of 70%. Per Crabapple Form -Based Code Section 4.4.1 e, Table 10 states that for T4 zoning the maximum lot coverage is to be 70%. Currently the site is at a coverage of 72% due to required parking, building and playground size. If approved this would not offend the intent of the code. As discussed in the multiple public meetings that have been held, parking is a concern with the neighboring properties. We are utilizing the least area as possible to accommodate the minimum parking requirements while taking into consideration the public’s concerns. If granted, this would be a benefit to surrounding properties. Based on the above considerations, the above Warrant is approved for the Maximum Lot Coverage. DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS – SEC. 64-1809 – Day Care Facility Use Permit Based on the requirements pursuant to Sec. 64-1809, the site plan indicates compliance with the development standards for the Use Permit. ENVIRONMENTAL SITE ANALYSIS In reference to the Environmental Impacts to the site, the report satisfies the requirement of Section 64-2126. The applicant has addressed the various issues outlined in the ESA report. The proposed site does not contain wetlands, floodplains, steep slopes, historical sites or sensitive plant and animal species. The applicant has included the tree survey on the site plan. Prepared by the Community Development Department for the City of Milton Mayor and City Council on May 21, 2018 (First Presentation on May 7, 2018) 5/3/2018 Page 10 of 18 U18-06 ARBORIST COMMENTS Development will need to meet the Tree Canopy Plan required per Sec. 60-28 of Tree Canopy Ordinance adopted 2/5/18. CITY OF MILTON FIRE MARSHAL The Fire Marshal has no objection to the proposed site plan. All development plans and building plans will be reviewed by the Fire Marshal prior to any permits being issued. TRANSPORTATION ENGINEER Due to the existing turn lanes in the vicinity and proximity to the intersection of SR 140 and Green Road, a left turn lane is required. Turn lane addition is to coordinate with existing left and right turn lanes on Green Road at SR 140 to create a 3 lane section from the proposed site entrance to SR 140. PUBLIC INVOLVEMENT On March 27, 2018, the applicant and engineer were present at the Community Zoning Information Meeting (CZIM) held at Community Place at City Hall . There were approximately 23 residents in attendance at the meeting. They voiced the following concerns regarding the proposed day care facility:  Traffic congestion on Green Road, cars are already in gridlock in the morning and afternoon rush hour. How can there be an additional 150 plus trips in the morning and afternoon?  Afraid that people will use the residential streets to turn around to get to the intersection of Arnold Mill and Green Road.  Noise from the outside playground during the day, as many of the nearby residents are retired.  Lighting of the site will spill over to the residential developments.  The proposed day care facility is too intense of a use for the area.  Green Road is a residential street and a non-residential use shouldn’t be allowed. PUBLIC PARTICIPATION REPORT Staff notes that in addition to the required public participation report, the applicant and his engineer met informally with the adjacent neighborhoods on March 28, 2018. The applicant then held the required public participation meeting on Wednesday, April 11, 2018 at 6 p.m. at Community Place, 2006 Heritage Place. There were seven residents in attendance who made the following comments. The responses from the applicant are shown below.

Prepared by the Community Development Department for the City of Milton Mayor and City Council on May 21, 2018 (First Presentation on May 7, 2018) 5/3/2018 Page 12 of 18 U18-06 USE PERMIT CONSIDERATIONS In the interest of the public health, safety and welfare, the Mayor and City Council may exercise limited discretion in evaluating the site proposed for a use that requires a Use Permit. In exercising such discretion pertaining to the subject use, the Mayor and City Council shall consider each of the following as outlined in Sec. 64-1552 of the Zoning Ordinance: Use Permit Considerations. Staff has reviewed said items pertaining to the subject use, and, offers the following comments: 1. Whether the proposed use is consistent with the land use or economic development plans adopted by the Mayor and City Council: The proposed development is located in the “T-4 Open” land use category on the City of Milton Comprehensive Plan Update Map. The proposed use permit for a day care facility is permitted in the T-4 Open Transect Zone. 2. Compatibility with land uses and zoning districts in the vicinity of the property for which the use permit is proposed: The subject site is compatible with the adjacent and nearby land uses and zoning: T-5 Transect Zone abutting Arnold Mill Road (SR 140) to the west that is currently developed with single family residences but if redeveloped will permit mixed use and or residential up to 9 units per acre, T-5 and T-4 Open Transect Zones to the northwest with townhomes (Glenview at Arnold Mill) under development with a permitted maximum density of 9 units per acre and a permitted maximum density of 5 units per acre respectively for an actual developed density of 5 units per acre. To the north and northeast is single family residential (Waterside Subdivision) zoned CUP (Community Unit Plan) developed at 2.25 and 3.22 units per acre. To the east, is T-4 Open developed with a single family residence and further to the east is Parkside at Silos Townhomes developed at a density of 4.2 units per acre. 3. Whether the proposed use may violate local, state and/or federal statutes, ordinances or regulations governing land development: The proposed use does not appear to violate any ordinances or regulations governing land development if the requested warrants for maximum front building setback and lot coverage are approved. 4. The effect of the proposed use on traffic flow, vehicular and pedestrian, along adjoining streets: The new trips for the proposed site are estimated to be distributed fairly evenly among the routes to the site. The highest entering and exiting routes (35% of trips) are proposed Prepared by the Community Development Department for the City of Milton Mayor and City Council on May 21, 2018 (First Presentation on May 7, 2018) 5/3/2018 Page 13 of 18 U18-06 to be the SR 140 northbound right turn onto Green with right turn into the site and left turn out of the site with left turn onto SR 140 southbound. The intersections of SR 140 at Green and SR 372 at Green have been identified for improvement in the 2016 City of Milton Comprehensive Transportation Plan and the 2018 North Fulton Comprehensive Transportation Plan. Additionally SR 140 at Green was included in the 2016 Fulton County Transportation Special Purpose Local Option Sales Tax initiative project list. The City of Milton and Georgia Department of Transportation have been coordinating on proposed improvements for these intersections but timelines for implementation have not yet been determined. The proposed use will increase trips along the routes to the site but traffic flow will continue to be impaired until intersection improvements are made for SR 140 at Green and SR 372 at Green. The proposed site plan creates a left turn lane into the site by modifying a portion of existing left turn lane for Waterhaven Lane (west entrance to Waterside) and extending the taper. To facilitate the highest exiting route, the taper may be replaced with a full width lane that connects to the left turn lane on Green at SR 140. Below are the summary of daily and peak hour trips and the distribution percentages for the proposed use: Prepared by the Community Development Department for the City of Milton Mayor and City Council on May 21, 2018 (First Presentation on May 7, 2018) 5/3/2018 Page 14 of 18 U18-06 Prepared by the Community Development Department for the City of Milton Mayor and City Council on May 21, 2018 (First Presentation on May 7, 2018) 5/3/2018 Page 15 of 18 U18-06 5. The location and number of off-street parking spaces; The off street parking is located on the sides and rear of the proposed building which is the appropriate location as required by the Crabapple Form Based Code. Below is a table indicating the required and provided number of parking spaces for the site. 3.5 spaces per 1,000 gross square feet Proposed Building (9,700 sq.ft.) 9.7 x 3.5 = 34 Spaces Total Required 34 spaces Total Provided 35 spaces (Of which 2 are handicapped) 6. The amount and location of open space: The T-4 Open transect zone requires a maximum of 70 percent lot coverage. The applicant has exceeded it by 2 percent. 7. Protective screening: The Crabapple Form Based Code does not require any protective screening when developing within the T-4 Open Transect Zone when adjacent to other transect zones within the Form Based Code. The applicant has agreed to install a maximum five foot high, four board equestrian style fence with hog wire along the interior property lines. This will be included in the Recommended Conditions. 8. Hours and manner of operation: Monday – Friday 6:00 am – 6:30 pm It is Staff’s opinion that the above mentioned hours and days of operation are reasonable for the proposed used and will be included in the Recommended Conditions. The applicant also states there will be occasional special events such as parent’s night out, holiday events, and open houses. 9. Outdoor lighting: The applicant has not indicated any additional lighting on the site. If lighting is proposed, it must comply with Section 4.12 of the Crabapple Form Based Code which requires light fixtures shall have the light cut off below 90 degrees and the beam shall be cut off at 75 degrees as well as other regulations that limit light pollution.

Ingress and egress to the property. Due to the existing turn lanes in the vicinity and proximity to the intersection of SR 140 and Green, a left turn lane is required. Turn lane addition is to coordinate with existing left and right turn lanes on Green at SR 140 to create a 3 lane section from the proposed site entrance to SR 140. CONCLUSION The proposed development of the day care facility is consistent with the City of Milton Comprehensive Plan Update suggestion of T-4 Open and meets the development standards for a day care facility use permit. Therefore, Staff recommends APPROVAL CONDITIONAL of U18-06 Prepared by the Community Development Department for the City of Milton Mayor and City Council on May 21, 2018 (First Presentation on May 7, 2018) 5/3/2018 Page 17 of 18 U18-06 RECOMMENDED CONDITIONS If this petition is approved by the Mayor and City Council, it should be for a Use Permit for a Day Care Facility (Sec. 64-1809) subject to the owner’s agreement to the following enumerated conditions.

Executive Summary: RZ17-12 – Text Amendment to Article XIX – Crabapple Form Based Code, 1.6.4.b as it relates to lodging RZ17-13 – Text Amendment to Article XX – Deerfield Form Based Code, 1.6.4.b as it relates to lodging RZ18-04 – To amend Article XIX Crabapple Form Based Code to amend Table 8B Building Unit Function Exchange Rate as it relates to Lodging RZ18-05 – To amend Article XX Deerfield Form Based Code to amend Table 9B Building Unit Function Exchange Rate as it relates to Lodging. The City of Milton only has one hotel within its jurisdiction. Hotels produce a high amount of tax revenue through property taxes and the amount of public services required by the City is minimal. The hotel/motel tax also helps to fund our special events throughout the year in the City. Over the past few years, hotel developers have been interested in building hotels in Milton, especially in the Deerfield area. Hotel developers look for smaller parcels between 1 and 3 acres to keep the development costs down. The current density allocation for hotel rooms are 2 hotel rooms per unit. So for example, if you have a 2 acre site within the T-6 transect zone at 12 units per acre, the maximum number of rooms would be 48 for the site. This is too low of a number of rooms to develop the site. Staff has provided the following analysis of nearby hotel locations with their acreage and number of rooms. Bolded indicates hotel in City of Milton. There are no hotels or lodging within the Crabapple Form Based Code but it is permitted by right. Hotel Acres # of Rooms Average rooms per acre Hyatt Place 5595 Windward Pkwy 3.2 128 40 Hampton Inn 16785 Old Morris 2.8 103 37 Comfort Inn 5455 Windward Pkwy 1.2 64 53 Springhill Suites 12730 Deerfield Pkwy 2.35 82 35 Holiday Inn Express 12505 Innovation Way 2.38 135 57 Hilton Gardens Inn 4025 Windward Plaza 3.37 164 49 Double Tree by Hilton 1.7 79 46 Cotton House Hotel (Under Development) Milton Ave (Alpharetta) 1.0 119 119 The national occupancy rate for commercial hotels, is shown below by days of the week. Commercial hotels service short-term, transient visitors. Business persons are the chief market of commercial houses. Conventioneers, engineers, salespersons, consultants and small business persons form the core of the customer base. These hotels locate close to their market, the business community. Hotels are usually in an urban area but are also located near arterial highways, research parks, and airports. Because of this type of use the higher average daily occupancy is during the beginning of the week and lower during the weekends. National Occupancy by days of the week Monday 100% Tuesday 100% Wednesday 90% Thursday 90% Friday 40% Saturday 20% Sunday 20% Average per 7 days 66% Source: “The Traditional Hotel Industry” Staff spoke to a local industry consultant that stated that the demand for hotels, specifically commercial hotels, is where the business centers are located. For the City of Milton, that is within proximity of the Windward Parkway/GA 400 area and therefore would not be in the Crabapple area where it is primarily residential uses and businesses supporting residential uses. Staff Recommendation for Deerfield Form Based Code With these facts in mind, an increase in the number of rooms per unit to 8, the following would result: A 2 acre site within the T-6 Transect Zone that has up to 12 units per acre would be 12 x 8=96 x 2 acres = 192 rooms which would provide a sufficient number to be competitive with nearby locations in Alpharetta. A site does not have to have this large number of rooms, but it allows the market to develop the number of rooms that will make the project viable. It should also be noted that the maximum height within the T-6 transect zone is 16 stories and within the T-5 transect zone is 4 stories. Therefore, Staff recommends that 8 hotel rooms per unit replace the existing 2 hotel rooms per unit to provide the incentive for future development of hotels within the Deerfield Form Based Code. Staff Recommendation for Crabapple Form Based Code A bed and breakfast model would be a better fit for the Crabapple area since the demand would not support a commercial hotel or even a boutique hotel since it is located far away from a business center. Staff notes that bed and breakfast is a “by right” use within the T-4, T-4 Open, and T-5 transect zones. A use permit is required for the T-2 and T-3 transect zones and not permitted within the T4-R transect zone. Within the Crabapple Form Based Code, the number of rooms could be increased to 4 rooms per unit to provide an incentive if the market demands it. Planning Commission Meeting on February 28, 2018 Staff presented the information above regarding the need to revise the number of hotel rooms (2) per unit in both the Deerfield and Crabapple Form Based Codes. During the discussion, it was suggested that Staff conduct further research to determine the optimal density for the areas which is included in the above discussion. The four associated text amendments were deferred to the April 25, 2018 Planning Commission Meeting. Planning Commission Meeting on April 25, 2018 Staff presented the updated information above regarding the further research at the Planning Commission Meeting. In addition, Staff recommended increasing the rooms per unit from 2 to 8 for the Deerfield Form Based Code and 2 to 4 rooms for the Crabapple Form Based Code. The Planning Commission agreed with Staff’s recommendation of 8 rooms per unit in Deerfield but recommended 3 rooms per unit in Crabapple. The Planning Commission’s recommendations are highlighted in yellow on the proposed text amendments.

Date: April 30, 2018 for the May 21, 2018 Mayor and City Council Meeting (May 7, 2018 First Presentation and May 14, 2018 Council Work Session) Department Recommendation: The Community Development Department recommends approval of the proposed text amendments. Executive Summary: RZ17-12 – Text Amendment to Article XIX – Crabapple Form Based Code, 1.6.4.b as it relates to lodging RZ17-13 – Text Amendment to Article XX – Deerfield Form Based Code, 1.6.4.b as it relates to lodging RZ18-04 – To amend Article XIX Crabapple Form Based Code to amend Table 8B Building Unit Function Exchange Rate as it relates to Lodging RZ18-05 – To amend Article XX Deerfield Form Based Code to amend Table 9B Building Unit Function Exchange Rate as it relates to Lodging. The City of Milton only has one hotel within its jurisdiction. Hotels produce a high amount of tax revenue through property taxes and the amount of public services required by the City is minimal. The hotel/motel tax also helps to fund our special events throughout the year in the City. Over the past few years, hotel developers have been interested in building hotels in Milton, especially in the Deerfield area. Hotel developers look for smaller parcels between 1 and 3 acres to keep the development costs down. The current density allocation for hotel rooms are 2 hotel rooms per unit. So for example, if you have a 2 acre site within the T-6 transect zone at 12 units per acre, the maximum number of rooms would be 48 for the site. This is too low of a number of rooms to develop the site. Staff has provided the following analysis of nearby hotel locations with their acreage and number of rooms. Bolded indicates hotel in City of Milton. There are no hotels or lodging within the Crabapple Form Based Code but it is permitted by right. Hotel Acres # of Rooms Average rooms per acre Hyatt Place 5595 Windward Pkwy 3.2 128 40 Hampton Inn 16785 Old Morris 2.8 103 37 Comfort Inn 5455 Windward Pkwy 1.2 64 53 Springhill Suites 12730 Deerfield Pkwy 2.35 82 35 Holiday Inn Express 12505 Innovation Way 2.38 135 57 Hilton Gardens Inn 4025 Windward Plaza 3.37 164 49 Double Tree by Hilton 1.7 79 46 Cotton House Hotel (Under Development) Milton Ave (Alpharetta) 1.0 119 119 The national occupancy rate for commercial hotels, is shown below by days of the week. Commercial hotels service short-term, transient visitors. Business persons are the chief market of commercial houses. Conventioneers, engineers, salespersons, consultants and small business persons form the core of the customer base. These hotels locate close to their market, the business community. Hotels are usually in an urban area but are also located near arterial highways, research parks, and airports. Because of this type of use the higher average daily occupancy is during the beginning of the week and lower during the weekends. National Occupancy by days of the week Monday 100% Tuesday 100% Wednesday 90% Thursday 90% Friday 40% Saturday 20% Sunday 20% Average per 7 days 66% Source: “The Traditional Hotel Industry” Staff spoke to a local industry consultant that stated that the demand for hotels, specifically commercial hotels, is where the business centers are located. For the City of Milton, that is within proximity of the Windward Parkway/GA 400 area and therefore would not be in the Crabapple area where it is primarily residential uses and businesses supporting residential uses. Staff Recommendation for Deerfield Form Based Code With these facts in mind, an increase in the number of rooms per unit to 8, the following would result: A 2 acre site within the T-6 Transect Zone that has up to 12 units per acre would be 12 x 8=96 x 2 acres = 192 rooms which would provide a sufficient number to be competitive with nearby locations in Alpharetta. A site does not have to have this large number of rooms, but it allows the market to develop the number of rooms that will make the project viable. It should also be noted that the maximum height within the T-6 transect zone is 16 stories and within the T-5 transect zone is 4 stories. Therefore, Staff recommends that 8 hotel rooms per unit replace the existing 2 hotel rooms per unit to provide the incentive for future development of hotels within the Deerfield Form Based Code. Staff Recommendation for Crabapple Form Based Code A bed and breakfast model would be a better fit for the Crabapple area since the demand would not support a commercial hotel or even a boutique hotel since it is located far away from a business center. Staff notes that bed and breakfast is a “by right” use within the T-4, T-4 Open, and T-5 transect zones. A use permit is required for the T-2 and T-3 transect zones and not permitted within the T4-R transect zone. Within the Crabapple Form Based Code, the number of rooms could be increased to 4 rooms per unit to provide an incentive if the market demands it. Planning Commission Meeting on February 28, 2018 Staff presented the information above regarding the need to revise the number of hotel rooms (2) per unit in both the Deerfield and Crabapple Form Based Codes. During the discussion, it was suggested that Staff conduct further research to determine the optimal density for the areas which is included in the above discussion. The four associated text amendments were deferred to the April 25, 2018 Planning Commission Meeting. Planning Commission Meeting on April 25, 2018 Staff presented the updated information above regarding the further research at the Planning Commission Meeting. In addition, Staff recommended increasing the rooms per unit from 2 to 8 for the Deerfield Form Based Code and 2 to 4 rooms for the Crabapple Form Based Code. The Planning Commission agreed with Staff’s recommendation of 8 rooms per unit in Deerfield but recommended 3 rooms per unit in Crabapple. The Planning Commission’s recommendations are highlighted in yellow on the proposed text amendments.

Executive Summary: Periodically, the City seeks grant funding for capital projects and even for a few operating initiatives. Prior to submission, our current policy requires the grant application to be presented to the mayor and council for approval. Most recently, we’ve experienced a timing issue between the grant deadline and when the next scheduled council meeting is, which prompted us to schedule a special-called meeting. While this doesn’t happen often, we wanted to see if there was a way we could streamline the grant process. With that in mind, we started looking at what other jurisdictions do and discovered that most cities authorize the city manager to approve the grant application and then present the acceptance of the award to the council for consideration. In some cases the awarded grant was accepted by the city manager up to a certain threshold, and then it was submitted to council for consideration. We are proposing an amendment to our grant policy that allows the city manager to approve the grant applications. If the grant award is $50,000 or less, the city manager may accept the award on behalf of the city. If the award is more than $50,000, the mayor and city council must approve the acceptance of the award. Funding and Fiscal Impact: None Alternatives: Keep the policy as is.

Executive Summary: Staff provided to the Mayor and City Council on March 19, 2018 (First Presentation on March 7, 2018) a Staff Report and Recommended Conditions for U18-02, U18-03 and VC18-02 to develop 42 condominiums (Senior Housing for persons 55 and over) at 12655 Birmingham Hwy containing 4.37 acres. The conditions approved at the meeting inadvertently conditioned approval on limiting development of the entire 4.37 acres to Senior Housing and did not allow for the front portion of the property (2.03 acres zoned T-5) to be developed with the applicant’s proposed mixed use development containing office, retail and residential within the parameters of the T-5 Transect Zone. In order for the appropriate conditions (correcting the prior conditions so as to reflect the intent of the Council at the prior meeting) to be approved, the Mayor and City Council will need to first vote for the Rescission and then approve the Use Permits with the attached, corrected set of conditions prepared by Staff. The rescission of the March 19, 2018 action by the Mayor and City Council and additional zoning action of the above mentioned cases will resolve this conflict between the existing conditions of zoning and the intended future development of the property.

Date: May 2, 2018 for the May 7, 2018 Mayor and City Council Meeting Department Recommendation: The Community Development Department recommends approval of the proposed actions by the Mayor and City Council. Executive Summary: Staff provided to the Mayor and City Council on March 19, 2018 (First Presentation on March 7, 2018) a Staff Report and Recommended Conditions for U18-02, U18-03 and VC18-02 to develop 42 condominiums (Senior Housing for persons 55 and over) at 12655 Birmingham Hwy containing 4.37 acres. The conditions approved at the meeting inadvertently conditioned approval on limiting development of the entire 4.37 acres to Senior Housing and did not allow for the front portion of the property (2.03 acres zoned T-5) to be developed with the applicant’s proposed mixed use development containing office, retail and residential within the parameters of the T-5 Transect Zone. In order for the appropriate conditions (correcting the prior conditions so as to reflect the intent of the Council at the prior meeting) to be approved, the Mayor and City Council will need to first vote for the Rescission and then approve the Use Permits with the attached, corrected set of conditions prepared by Staff. The rescission of the March 19, 2018 action by the Mayor and City Council and additional zoning action of the above mentioned cases will resolve this conflict between the existing conditions of zoning and the intended future development of the property.

Executive Summary: The City of Milton Parks and Recreation Department Fee Schedule was last reviewed in March of 2018. Since that time, we have made plans to open the pool at the Milton Country Club, which calls for an update to the schedule. The Fee Schedule now includes an admission fee for the pool. The admission fee will be sold two ways; a daily fee and a seasonal fee. The daily fee will be $5.00 per person and is good for one day only. The seasonal pass will permit guests to access the pool every day the pool is open between Memorial Day and Labor Day. The Seasonal Pass will be sold in four, five and six guest varieties with a cost of $200.00, $250.00 & $300.00 respectively. A replacement for a lost or damaged season pass will be $5.00. The pool will not be rentable for private events. The Fee Schedule was reviewed by the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board and they voted unanimously to recommend approval of this fee schedule. Funding and Fiscal Impact: The adoption of this resolution allows the City to gain revenue from the pool and help offset the costs of the pool’s operation. Alternatives: If this resolution is not adopted, our alternative is to not charge an admission for the use of the pool . Legal Review: Jeff Strickland – Jarrard & Davis, April 16, 2018.

Executive Summary: The Georgia Fund 1 (GF1) is a public sector mutual fund for Georgia cities, counties, and school districts and was created to allow local governments to consolidate and invest idle funds. The Fund’s allowable investments mirror those that can be purchased directly by local governments. Those investments include obligations issued, insured or guaranteed by the federal government. The funds are not locked into longer maturities, so the liquidity is flexible. While we currently have an existing account with GF1, we would like to create a new account for TSPLOST funds. These funds should be segregated from other idle funds because the interest earned can only be used for TSPLOST projects. As of the end of March, we have over $5.3 million in our TSPLOST account. The monthly yield for GF1 is 1.51%, which is higher than our money market funds at 1.25%. Funding and Fiscal Impact: Increase in interest earnings will positively impact revenues.
