Universal Engineering Sciences (UES) appreciates the opportunity to submit this proposal for
performance of a Phase I Site Assessment of the aforementioned site. This proposal presents a
brief description of our understanding of the project, the work scope, and our compensation.
PHASE I ENVIRONMENTAL SITE ASSESSMENT
The objective of the Phase I ESA is to provide an independent, professional opinion regarding
recognized environmental conditions (RECs) associated with the referenced property.
Specifically, we will use American Society for Testing and Materials Standard E 1527-05,
Standard Practice for Environmental Site Assessments: Phase I Environmental Site
Assessment Process as a guideline. The following tasks will be completed during the
assessment:
• Interview key site personnel, as available, regarding current and previous uses of the
property, particularly activities involving hazardous materials and wastes.
• Investigate historical use of the property by examining locally available aerial photographs
and other readily available historical information (e.g., fire insurance maps, city directories).
• Review property records (e.g., Tax Assessors Office) to ascertain previous ownership and
historical property use, to the extent these records are available. This may not result in a 50
year chain -of -title.
• Document information available on general geology and topography of the property, local
groundwater conditions, sources of water, power, and sewer, and proximity to ecologically
sensitive receptors (e.g., streams).
• Conduct an onsite walkthrough inspection of the property for visual evidence of potential
environmental concerns including:
-- Existing or potential soil and water contamination, as evidenced by soil staining,
discoloration, stressed vegetation, or indications of waste dumping/burial
-- Pits, ponds, or lagoons
-- Containers of hazardous substances or petroleum products

Underground storage tanks (USTs)
Aboveground storage tanks (ASTs)
Suspect asbestos containing materials (ACM). If there is readily visible suspect ACM it
will be noted. No bulk material samples will be collected, nor any detailed description
will be given.
• Review readily available information with respect to radon gas potential.
• Perform a property line visual assessment of adjoining property for evidence of potential
environmental conditions that may affect the subject property.
• Identification of wetland conditions, protected species and habitat, and cultural and
archeological resources will be evaluated by the review of the National Wetlands Inventory,
National Historic Register, and U.S. Fish & Wildlife databases. If UES determines from the
review of the aforementioned databases that suspect wetlands, protected species, and
cultural and archeological resources exist at the site, UES will make the appropriate
recommendations in the Phase I ESA Report for further evaluation.
• Review a commercial database summary of federal and state regulatory agency records
pertinent to the site and properties within ASTM recommended search distances, including
(1) the National Priorities List (NPL) and the Comprehensive Environmental Response
Compensation and Liability Information System (CERCLIS) inventory maintained by
USEPA, (2) inventories of known or suspected sites of environmental impairment
maintained by state and local regulatory authorities, and (3) underground storage tank
registration inventories maintained by state and local regulatory authorities.
• In order to qualify for one of the Landowner Liability Protections (LLPs) offered by the Small
Business Liability Relief and Brownfields Revitalization Act of 2001 (the Brownfields
Amendments"), the user must provide the user questionnaire to the environmental
professional. Failure to provide this information could result in a determination that "all
appropriate inquiry' is not complete. The user questionnaire is provided as an attachment to
this proposal.
The user is required to provide information regarding environmental liens. The scope of the
environmental cleanup lien search is limited to reasonably ascertainable land title records.
Prepare a written report including work performed, findings, conclusions, and
recommendations for additional investigation (as necessary) to evaluate identified RECs or
business environmental risks that may have an impact on site development.
If possible, please provide the following information/documents:
• Plot plan and legal description.
• Any other data, previous reports, or information with respect to the subject property.
• Questionnaire (attached)

Universal Engineering Sciences (UES) appreciates the opportunity to submit this proposal for
performance of a Geotechnical Exploration and an Asbestos Survey of the aforementioned site.
This proposal presents a brief description of our understanding of the project, the work scope,
and our compensation.
GEOTECHNICAL EXPLORATION
FIELD EXPLORATION
The field exploration will consist of a total of 200 feet of standard penetration test (SPT) borings.
Ten borings will be spaced out through out the five acre property. Each boring will be extended
to a maximum depth of 20 feet below the existing ground surface or auger refusal, whichever
occurs first. Based on the provided aerials, it appears that one day of clearing will be required
to gain drill rig access to the back portions of the property. Based on the aerial photograph a
single family residential structure is located on site with a smaller sheds.
ENGINEERING SERVICES
A geotechnical engineer, registered in the State of Georgia, will direct the geotechnical
exploration and provide an evaluation of the site and subsurface conditions with respect to the
planned construction. The result of the recommended exploration and engineering study will be
presented in a report containing the following:
Foundation Recommendations
Recommendations for asphalt paving design
Soil bearing capacity, on both original soils and compacted fill

ASBESTOS SURVEY
1630.1110.00002
November 9, 2010
Representative bulk samples of the suspect asbestos containing materials (ACMs) will be
collected and analyzed for asbestos content by polarized light microscopy (PLM). The
United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) defines an asbestos containing
material as any material containing greater than one (1) percent asbestos. UES will provide
PLM results to you immediately upon receipt for discussion to determine if further analysis is
required.
• If PLM results indicate levels between "trace" and 10% asbestos, you will have the option to
analyze the samples further by PLM Point Count Analysis to better quantify the asbestos
content or assume the material to be asbestos containing. Materials having point count
results <1% asbestos are considered non -asbestos containing. If you choose the additional
Point Count analysis, UES will pass-through these costs.
• UES will assess the condition, friability and amount of the suspect ACMs, if found to contain
asbestos.
• Provide a written report of our findings.
• All work will be performed by an EPA -accredited Inspector.
COMPENSATION FOR SERVICES
Based on the scope of the geotechnical exploration, and the environmental services outlined
above, we propose to complete the geotechnical exploration for a lump sum amount of
$3,200.00 with one day of clearing of $1,000.00 and Asbestos Survey is a lump sum cost of
$1,000.00 (includes collecting samples, lab analysis and reporting). If additional services are
required they will be invoiced according to the attached Fee Schedule.
TIME SCHEDULE
We expect to complete the work and submit formal reports within three weeks of authorization.
Additionally, we will provide you with verbal results of pertinent issues as they arise. If a tighter
schedule is required please let us know. In addition, we will verbally discuss pertinent
geotechnical items of work with you as they are obtained.

To: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
From: Carter Lucas, Public Works Director
Date: November 23, 2010 for the December 6, 2010 Council meeting
Agenda Item: Approval of a Contract between the City of Milton and Bass Signal
Corporation for Directional Boring Services for Signal and Pedestrian
Improvements at the Intersection of Webb Road and Deerfield Parkway in the
Amount of $9,600.
Background:
As part of the MARTA Offset projects the city has proposed intersection improvements to
enhance pedestrian mobility at the intersection of Webb Road and Deerfield Parkway.
Discussion:
Several pedestrian improvements have been identified at this intersection to improve the safety
and mobility of the area (additional crosswalk, countdown ped timers, improved ramps, etc…).
The first part of that project is to replace the wiring that connects the pedestrian signals. This
project will install the necessary conduit in the proper locations to install the wiring for the
proposed upgrades. This is part of our overall intersection enhancement project being funded by
the MARTA Offset funds and is 100% reimbursable. Three quotes were obtained for these
services and Bass Signal Corporation provided the lowest bid for the project. Staff is
recommending approval of the contract in the amount of $9,600.00.

To: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
From: Carter Lucas, Public Works Director
Date: November 23, 2010 for the December 6, 2010 Council meeting
Agenda Item: Approval of a Professional Services Contract between the City of Milton and
Lowe Engineers, LLC to Provide Professional Transportation Engineering and
Planning Services to the City in the Amount of $30,000.
Background:
Sara Leaders has provided the city with Transportation Engineering and Planning Services
since 2008 through Lowe Engineers, LLC. This professional services contract is to provide for a
continuation of those services to the extent possible under our purchasing policy.
Discussion:
Our current purchasing policy provides for the acquisition of professional services on an as-
needed basis provided those services do not exceed $30,000. This agreement will allow the city
to continue to use the services of Lowe Engineers, LLC, and more specifically Sara Leaders, for
Transportation Engineering and Planning services on hourly rate basis not to exceed the $30,000
threshold.

CHANGE ORDER # 1
TO THE
PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH URS CORPORATION
FOR THE REPLACEMENT OF THE COGBURN ROAD BRIDGE OVER COPPER
SANDY CREEK
(Original Task Order 10-URS-03)
WHEREAS, the City of Milton, Georgia and URS Corporation have entered into
a certain Professional Services Agreement (RFQ #08-001) dated November 20, 2008 (the
“Agreement”), incorporated herein by reference, for the provision of professional services; and
WHEREAS, the City of Milton, Georgia and URS Corporation, pursuant to the
Agreement, entered into Task Order 10-URS-03 dated March 30, 2010 (the “TASK ORDER”),
incorporated herein by reference, for the provision of the Cogburn Road Bridge Replacement;
and
WHEREAS, the parties desire to issue this Change Order # 1 to the TASK
ORDER, it being to the mutual benefit of all parties to do so, as set forth herein for the reasons
and consideration set forth herein.
NOW THEREFORE, the parties hereto agree to change the TASK ORDER as
follows:
1. The following tasks are hereby added to the TASK ORDER description of services:
A. Task 6 - Environmental Studies
URS will conduct an initial site visit and coordinate with the United States Army
Corps of Engineers (USACE) to determine the need for Section 404 permitting for
the project. URS staff will perform a site visit including wetland delineation, if
necessary, for the project site. URS anticipates the project would only require
minimal coordination with the USACE unless wetlands are identified within the
project boundaries. Replacing an existing bridge with a bottomless culvert structure
that spans the water resource does not typically require a Section 404 permit on small
streams, and URS will coordinate with the USACE to confirm that such condition is
applicable. This will be considered Phase I.
Should the USACE determine that a Section 404 permit is required, and if authorized
by the City of Milton, URS environmental staff will move forward with Phase II.
Any impact to Jurisdictional Waters of the US (i.e. streams, wetlands, open waters)
would require compliance with Section 404 of the Clean Water Act and Section 10 of
the Rivers and Harbors Act. Impacts (dredge, fill, flood etc) to Waters of the US
require a Section 404 permit from USACE. The USACE is solely responsible for
making final permit decisions pursuant to Section 10 and Section 404, including final
determinations of compliance with the local USACE permit regulations and
conditions. URS assumes any unavoidable impacts will be minor and qualify for a
Nationwide Permit (NWP). URS will prepare the Pre-Construction Notification
(PCN) and submit to USACE for approval. As part of the PCN preparation, URS will
conduct a desktop query of existing databases for the presence of protected species
and/or cultural resources. Field surveys and individual reports for these resources are
not included in this scope and fee.

To: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
From: Christopher Lagerbloom, City Manager
Date: Submitted on November 29, 2010 for the December 6, 2010 Council Meeting
Agenda Item: Consideration of an agreement with Lew Oliver Incorporated Whole Town
Solutions
City Manager’s Office Recommendation
Consider and approve an agreement with Lew Oliver Incorporated Whole Town Solutions
Background
On June 27, 2010, during the retreat of the Mayor and Council, there was considerable
discussion on next steps related to the possibility of creating a City Center in the area known as
‘Crabapple’. Crabapple is located within the political boundaries of the City of Milton and is
more of a geographical term used to identify an area, but it encompasses a node in the south
central part of the City. One of the first steps the Council directed staff to take was to revisit the
Crabapple Master Plan, and it was also the unanimous voice of the Council that if it was
possible, professional services provided by Lew Oliver Inc. Whole Town Solutions would be
preferred.
Staff has worked with Lew Oliver on a proposal which is in keeping with the direction provided
by the Council, and also within the funding available.
Attached to this report you will find the proposal. In summary, Lew Oliver, Inc. recommends a
Charrette process which focuses on the Crabapple area. The proposal includes a meeting with
the Mayor and City Council, site visits, stakeholder meetings, presentations, master plan (drawn
to scale and rendered in color), recommended park and pedestrian paths promoting
interconnectivity and an execution process (amongst other things – please refer to the actual
proposal).
Funding and Fiscal Impact
The fiscal impact of this master plan revisit is $30,000. This will require a $5,000 budget
amendment into the capital projects fund. If this is approved, staff will prepare the appropriate
adjustment. This proposal meets the City Purchasing Policy on Professional Services and was
approved as such by the City Attorney on November 22, 2010.
Alternatives:
This is one of several options in moving this process forward. As was noted above, staff worked
hard to hear the Council and work toward a proposal from Mr. Oliver that met the needs of the
City and the funding available. This process can obviously expand and contract and could go

one of several different ways. If the Council chooses not to approve this proposal, staff would
recommend we seek these services from another professional firm.

From: Robyn MacDonald, Community Development Department
Date: November 22, 2010 for Submission onto the December 20, 2010, City Council
Meeting (First Presentation December 6, 2010, Work Session December 13,
2010)
Agenda Items: RZ10-06 - To amend the City of Milton Zoning Ordinance, Section 64-1820,
Landscaping business, plant nursery or garden center with indoor retail
component.
RZ10-08 - To amend the City of Milton Zoning Ordinance, Section 64-1,
Definition for Landscaping business.
CMO (City Manager’s Office) Recommendation:
To approve the recommended amendments of Chapter 64, City of Milton Zoning Ordinance as it
pertains to Landscape Business Use Permit and Definition.
Background:
The Planning Commission began work on the existing Use Permit for Landscaping business,
plant nursery or garden center with indoor retail component (Section 64-1820) in 2009 prompted
in part by the increasing number of applications for landscape businesses within the City.
Discussion:
This proposed text amendment is a result of several meetings in 2009 and more recently where
the Planning Commission deliberated on the revised use permit and definition for a landscape
business. Below is the current Use Permit and Definition for a landscape business which is
more comprehensive in scope as it relates to balancing the proposed use with adjacent
residential and agricultural uses.
Existing Definition – Sec 64-1 Definitions
Landscaping business means a business whose primary operation is the sale or storage
of organic or inorganic materials, plants, mulch, pine straw, or other limited related
accessory products for the landscape industry or the storage or use of associated
landscape vehicles.
The Planning Commission amended the definition to be more descriptive in what may be
included within a landscape business.

Existing Use Permit
Sec. 64-1820 Landscaping business, plant nursery or garden center with indoor retail
component.
(a) Required districts. AG-1(Agricultural).
(b) Standards.
(1) No access shall be allowed from local streets.
(2) No parking is permitted in the minimum front yard.
(3) All use areas/structures other than parking and pedestrian walkways shall be
located at least 50 feet from any adjoining residential district or AG-1
(Agricultural) district.
(4) Limit hours of operation from 6:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m.
(5) The minimum buffers and landscape strips required for the O-I (Office-
Institutional) zoning district as specified in article III of this zoning ordinance shall
be required.
(6) Structures for retail sales shall be limited to 1,000 total gross square feet.
Staff notes that the proposed Use Permit does not include a plant nursery based on the fact that
it is already permitted under the AG-1 (Agricultural) district and it was determined that there
should be no retail component associated with a landscape business. A plant nursery is
currently permitted to sell the product(s) raised on their property as dictated by the AG -1
(Agricultural) district.
Alternatives:
The Council may allow the ordinances to remain as they exist or make other amendments to the
proposed revisions.

Text Amendment – RZ10-06 prepared for the Mayor and City Council Meeting, December 6, 2010 (First
Presentation)
Sec 64-1820. Landscape Business
It is the purpose of the regulation to permit the filing of a Permit application, within an
area zoned AG-1(Agricultural), for the operation of a Landscape Business. Such use may
only be permitted where it is determined that such use will be compatible within the
specific area identified within the application.
Allowing such use by Permit, but not otherwise, provides an opportunity for a business
owner to operate such use in property zoned AG-1(Agricultural), while creating a
mechanism for review, oversight and registration of the use. The following standards
place basic limitations on such use and establish criteria to aid in the evaluation of an
application for a Landscape Business. It is understood that proposals for a Landscape
Business will vary in scope and that based on the specific location and surrounding uses,
individual properties will be suited for differing levels of operation. It is further
understood that some sites will simply not be suited at all for such use. The burden shall
be on the applicant to demonstrate that the proposed use is compatible with the specific
site and surrounding area and in compliance with the criteria set forth in this Section.
In accordance with the above purpose, a Permit for a Landscape Business in an area
zoned AG-1 (Agricultural) may be issued, subject to the following requirements.
1. The scope of the Landscape Business shall be appropriate to the size of the
property and its neighboring uses.
2. All sales from the property are prohibited excluding Roadside Produce Stands.
3. No individual building, used for the business operation, shall exceed 2,000 square
feet, and the total square footage of all such buildings shall not exceed 5,000
square feet. The size of each building and the total size of all buildings may be
reduced based on the compatibility with surrounding uses.
4. The design of any proposed building(s) shall comply with the appropriate Overlay
District.
5. All use areas, storage areas, dumpsters, or structures other than parking and
pedestrian walkways shall be located at least 75 feet from any adjoining
residential district or AG-1 (Agricultural) district.
6. A maximum of six employee vehicles may be parked on the property at any time.
Parking spaces shall be designed and placed in a manner that minimizes the
impact or detraction from neighboring properties. Personal vehicles shall only be
parked in approved designated locations. Vehicles and equipment used for the
landscape business shall be garaged or screened.

7. Vendor material deliveries shall occur between the hours of 7:30 a.m. and 7:00
p.m.
8. Limit the hours of operations from 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m.
9. Storage of landscape materials on the property may be permitted in limited
quantities provided the materials are specifically identified on the site plan and
confined. Such plan shall show the location and means of confinement of any
material to be stored. Material may include bark mulch, topsoil, sand-based
material, stone, brick, concrete block, peat moss, plants and timbers. Limited
quantities of fertilizer and/or insecticide may also be stored, provided they are in
the manufacturer’s original sealed containers and placed inside of a building and
in compliance with local, state and federal regulations.
10. All landscape debris, and refuse, shall be contained in appropriate sized
containers and no debris or refuse shall be stored on the ground.
11. Landscape vehicles and equipment used in the operation of the business shall be
stored in specifically approved areas on the property, if it is determined that the
property can accommodate such vehicles and that storage of such vehicles. All
vehicles and associated equipment shall be screened from view from any adjacent
street or property.
12. The on-site bulk storage of gasoline, diesel fuel, other petroleum products,
fertilizers, insecticides or any other material is prohibited.
13. The proposed use shall not create traffic, noise, odors or produce light that are
considered a nuisance.
14. Access shall only be allowed from arterial or collector streets.

FACILITIES, SECTIONS 54-4.(3), 54-7.(b), 54-11, AND 54-21.(1)
Sec. 54-4. - Applicability.
All new wireless towers and antennas shall be subject to the regulations contained within this
chapter except as provided in subsections (1)—(3), inclusive:
(1)
Public property. Towers or antennas on public property approved by the city
council.
(2)
Amateur radio; receive-only antennas. This chapter shall not govern any amateur
radio tower, or the installation of any antenna, that is under 60 feet in height and
is owned and operated by a federally-licensed amateur radio station operator or is
used exclusively for receive only antennas.
(3)
Pre-existing towers and antennas. Any tower or antenna for which a permit has
been properly issued prior to the effective date of this chapter shall not be
required to meet the provisions of this chapter, other than the requirements of
section 54-7-8. Any such towers or antennae shall be referred to in this chapter as
"preexisting towers" or "preexisting antennae." However, in the event a
preexisting tower or antennae ceases to function, then the subject tower, antennae
and related equipment shall be removed from the subject property within 90
days.
Sec. 54-7. - Approval process.
(b)
If the proposed tower or antenna is not included under the above-described expedited
approval uses, or the application does not on its face satisfy the development standards
and other criteria specified herein, then a public hearing before the mayor and council
and planning commission shall be required for the approval of the construction of a
telecommunications facility in all zoning districts.
Applicants shall apply for two public hearings, one before the planning commission and
the mayor and city council through the community development department and pay the
fee for such review in accordance with the fee schedule published by the city. The
applications shall also go before the city design review board for its review prior to the
planning commission meeting. Applications, when complete, shall be placed on the next
available agenda of the planning commission and mayor and council at which zoning
matters are considered. At least 30 days prior to any scheduled hearing, the community
development department shall cause a sign to be posted on the property and the
publication of a public notice in a newspaper of general circulation. Said notice shall state
the nature of the application, street location of the proposal and height of the proposed
structure as well as the time, date and location of each hearing. The community
[2- ORD page 2 and 3 Minor Revisions telecom] 2
development department shall also give similar notice by regular mail to all property
owners and/or current residents within 500 feet of the boundaries of the subject property
with a minimum of 75 owners who appear on the city tax records as retrieved by the
city's geographic information system. The notices shall be mailed a minimum of 14 days
prior to the first scheduled hearing. Re-notification by mail is required when a petition is
recommended for deferral by the planning commission for any amount of time or is
deferred by the mayor and city council.
Before approving an application, the governing authority may impose conditions to the
extent necessary to buffer or otherwise minimize any adverse effect of the proposed
tower on adjoining properties. The factors considered in granting such a permit include
those enumerated in sections 54-4 5 and 54-5 6 above. The mayor and council may waive
one or more of these criteria, if, in their discretion doing so will advance the goals of this
chapter as stated in section 54-2 1 above.
If the city council determines that any application does not meet the general application
requirements, development requirements and/or standards enumerated herein, or such
application conflicts with the existing tower map, approval of the application shall be
denied provided substantial evidence exists to support such denial. Any aggrieved party
may appeal the denial to a court of competent jurisdiction. For purposes of this section,
an aggrieved party is one who demonstrates that his or her property will suffer special
damage as a result of the decision complained of rather than merely some damage that is
common to all property owners and citizens similarly situated.
Approved applications shall expire one year from the date of the approval by the mayor

To: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
From: Lynn Tully, AICP, Community Development Director
Date: November 22, 2010, Submitted for the December 6, 2010, City Council
Regular Meeting for Unfinished Business.
Agenda Item: Text Amendment to replace in its entirety Appendix A, Fees and Other Charges
of the City of Milton Code of Ordinances
CMO (City Manager’s Office) Recommendation:
The Mayor and City Council to hear and approve the attached text amendment, Appendix A,
Fees and Other Charges of the City of Milton Code of Ordinances replacing the existing text in
its entirety.
Background:
Recently the finance department had a very competent summer intern who, in her diligence
noted that many fees were missing from our adopted fee schedule. Coupled with several recent
changes to the codes that reference new fees for items such as, taxicab permits and cell tower
applications, staff felt that it was time to revisit the fee schedule.
Discussion:
Our intern scoured the ordinances and codes and listed all she could find over the summer.
Some new fees have been included in the latest ordinance adoptions and further need to be
codified. Several departments contributed to completing this document and the majority of the
fees remain unchanged from current practices. Please note that there are a few new fees that
are the result of new ordinances and/or prudent practices adopted from the surrounding area.
Any new fees proposed are highlighted in red and any fees highlighted in yellow include a
difference from current practice that would need to be addressed by ordinance change to the
code. I would be happy to answer any questions regarding the proposed fee schedule.
The ordinance has been reviewed in by City Staff and is in review with the City Attorney’s office.
Attached is the proposed ordinance as recommended by all bodies.
Alternatives:
The Mayor and City Council may choose to approve, deny or defer the Text Amendment to
replace in its entirety Appendix A, Fees and Other Charges, of the City of Milton Code of
Ordinances.

To: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
From: Michele McIntosh-Ross, City Planner
Date: November 23, 2010 for Submission onto the December 6, 2010, City Council
Regular Meeting
Agenda Item: Resolution Requesting the Transmittal of an Application for FY 2011 Livable
Centers Initiative (LCI) Study Grant in the Amount not to Exceed One Hundred,
Twenty Thousand Dollars ($120,000) in Order to Conduct an LCI Study of the
Area Along Hwy 9 to the Atlanta Regional Commission (ARC)
CMO (City Manager’s Office) Recommendation:
To approve the attached resolution to transmit to the Atlanta Regional Commission the FY 2011
Livable Centers Initiative Study for Highway 9 for consideration.
Background:
The Atlanta Regional Commission (ARC) Board adopted policies in the Regional Transportation
Plan (RTP) proposal in May 1999 to provide funding for investment studies and transportation
projects located in activity and town centers in the region. This program of studies and projects
is known as the Livable Centers Initiative (LCI). The focus of the program is to encourage
increased residential development, mixed-uses and connectivity in activity and town centers.
Due to the success of the initial program, the ARC Board authorized the extension of the LCI
program as part of the 2030 RTP, with an added focus on corridors and emerging centers, as
well as, town centers and activity centers.
Discussion:
This resolution initiates the process of transmitting the Highway 9 application to the Atlanta
Regional Commission for review and consideration.
The vision is for Highway 9 to become a mixed-use area that is the spine for the Windward
Parkway and Deerfield area with an interconnected multi-modal transportation network
throughout. The intention is to balance economic development while maintaining a human scale
walkable environment.
The area around the Hwy 9 Corridor has seen increased commercial and residential
development since the late 1990’s. Its proximity to GA 400 and a MARTA Park and Ride facility
has contributed to this increased development. However, the corridor lacks a defined vision for
future development. In an effort to instill some guidelines for the look of development, the
Highway 9 overlay district was created in 1999 and later amended in 2003 and 2004. However,
an overlay does not address the current issues with traffic congestion, inappropriate land uses
and areas where intersection and sidewalk improvements are long overdue.
City of Milton
13000 Deerfield Parkway Suite 107C Milton, GA 30004
An LCI designation will address these issues and allow for the incorporation of the livable
centers principles, and guidelines for sustainability. Staff has prepared an application seeking
LCI designation as a “Corridor Study” and offers a maximum fund amount of $120,000.
Corridors are defined as roadways that are functionally classified as a major collector or higher.
The corridor study focuses on urban scale development, mixed-uses, walkability and multi-
modal transportation choices. The emphasis is on creating livable environments as well as
efficient vehicular movement and more efficient utilization of existing infrastructure.
In the southern portion of Hwy 9, the corridor runs through both Milton and Alpharetta, and in
order to maximize the benefit of the grant funding, staff has invited the City of Alpharetta to
participate in the application to request for funds.
