The CIP shows the allocation of projected expenditures for capital projects expected over the next five years. The CIP includes those items typically considered as “infrastructure”—streets, sewer lines, bridges, etc., as well as facilities through which City government provides services directly to citizens or in support of City operations. The latter category includes such facilities as police precincts, recreation amenities, maintenance facilities, and general office buildings. The CIP covers all facilities that City government owns and has responsibility for. It includes facilities of both general government operations and enterprise operations. The Water and Sewer System and Hartsfield‐Jackson Atlanta International Airport are enterprise operations. The enterprise operations are self‐supporting and generate their own capital funds through revenue bonding or operating revenues, while general government capital improvements rely on annual bond issues and voter approved general obligation bonds, as well as general and internal service funds, and dedicated tax millage and grants. The CIP document is submitted with the Community Work Program (CWP) to the Atlanta Regional Commission (ARC) and to the Georgia Department of Community Affairs (DCA), as required by the Georgia Planning Act, in order for the City of Atlanta to maintain its Qualified Local Government (QLG) status. The CIP/CWP has to be adopted every year by October 31st. QLG status makes the City of Atlanta eligible for various state and regional funding and to collect impact fees. Some of the state programs linked to the QLG designation are: Local Development Fund grants, CDBG Loan Guarantee Fund Program (Section 108 Program), Georgia Finance Authority funding and Georgia Department of Natural Resources grants, among others. Capital Improvements ‐ Definitions The CIP identifies major improvements and capital purchases needed to improve services to the community. A Capital Improvement Project must meet one of the following criteria: Real property acquisition (Land) Construction of a new facility Addition (a modification that changes the structural “footprint” of the facility) to existing facilities greater than or equal to $25,000 Remodeling/repair/preservation of the interior/exterior of any facility greater than or equal to $25,000 Demolition of existing facilities greater than or equal to $25,000 Major equipment items or projects including computer infrastructure, which as a whole are greater than or equal to $25,000 (excludes vehicles unless >= $50,000) 2016-2020 Capital Improvements Program/Community Work Program 1 Capital Improvements Program Infrastructure projects (a road, bridge, intersection, drainage system, or sewer structure, etc.) As noted, the City CIP covers City government capital projects only. These projects are carried out to provide the facilities for the provision of City services, and to support, encourage and shape the direction of private development. Many other factors influence infrastructure development in the City, such as the Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority (MARTA), the Atlanta Housing Authority, Tax Allocation Districts, the State and Federal Governments, Community Improvement Districts and the Atlanta Board of Education. Also, private developments directly interact with the future and direction of City growth, requiring City involvement and support and providing the opportunity to leverage private investment with City resources. CIP/CWP Plan Development and Approval The CIP Subcabinet, a committee comprised of representatives from each City Department, was responsible for developing project listings based on identified and projected needs. Each department is responsible for completing the information for each project listed in the CIP and for ensuring projects included in the document could be linked to identified funding sources. The management and implementation of projects in each specific chapter are the Department’s responsibility. The Office of Planning in the Department of Planning and Community Development is responsible for preparing the CIP document and for reviewing the CIP. Through its Capital Budgeting Process, the Department of Finance is responsible for making recommendations as to funding sources and schedules. After an initial public hearing on June 8, 2015 and approval of the transmittal resolution from City Council on June 15, 2015, the CIP/CWP was transmitted the Atlanta Regional Commission (ARC) and Department of Community Affairs for a 60 day review. ARC completed its review in August 2015. The second public hearing

The report reviews the IZ program from January 26, 2018 through December 31, 2020. SUMMARY Inclusionary zoning (IZ) and the IZ program in Atlanta have several goals, including increasing the number of affordable housing units in the city and providing low- and moderate-income residents access to low-poverty neighborhoods near employment centers and public and private amenities. In examining the City’s progress towards these goals, we found: • Since implementation of a mandatory Inclusionary Zoning program in the BeltLine and Westside Atlanta neighborhoods in January 2018, there are 362 new affordable housing units in some stage of development. • Most affordable units are designated for households with incomes at 70-80% of area median income (AMI) while the rest are designated at or below 60% of AMI. • There was an increase in multifamily building project permits issued citywide and inside the IZ area from 2015–2020, indicating that the IZ program was not related to a reduction in new multifamily INCLUSIONARY ZONING WITH developments. Additionally, there is not evidence that developers are A SKYLINE VIEW IN BANKHEAD building townhomes instead of multifamily developments to avoid IZ PHOTO CREDIT: CITY OF REFUGE program requirements.
