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 and 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.

Atlanta map section and photos of proposed marker site 31 2 Proposed marker text: The Granite Governor’s Mansion The Granite Mansion served as Georgia’s third Executive Mansion from 1924-1967. Designed by architect A. Ten Eyck Brown, the house at 205 The Prado was built in 1910 from locally- quarried granite in the Italian Renaissance Revival style. It was first home to real estate developer Edwin P. Ansley, founder of Ansley Park, Atlanta’s first automobile suburb. Ellis Arnall, one of the state’s most progressive governors, resided there (1943-47). He was a disputant in the infamous “three governors controversy.” For forty-three years, the mansion was home to twelve governors, until poor maintenance made it nearly uninhabitable. A new governor’s mansion was constructed on West Paces Ferry Road. The granite mansion was razed in 1969, but its garage was converted to a residence. 3 Historical Documentation of the Granite Mansion Edwin P. Ansley Edwin Percival Ansley (see Appendix 1) was born in Augusta, GA, on March 30, 1866. In 1871, the family moved to the Atlanta area. Edwin studied law at the University of Georgia, and was an attorney in the Atlanta law firm Calhoun, King & Spalding.

  • Appendix E - Public Involvement
    Appendix E - Public Involvement Atlanta BeltLine Corridor Environmental Study E April 2012 Page Left Intentionally Blank Atlanta BeltLine Corridor Environmental Study April 2012 Appendix E – Public Participation 1.1 Public Participation Plan Summary The objective of the public participation program is to invite and encourage the public to learn about and become involved in the BeltLine Corridor Environmental Study. The development of the Public Involvement and Agency Coordination Plan (PIAC) ensured ongoing public involvement throughout the course of the project using a variety of tools and techniques. The PIAC Plan describes how the public, local and state agencies, and decision-makers will take part in the identification, development, and implementation of the proposed transit and multi-use trails system in the BeltLine Corridor. Key objectives of the public involvement efforts are to facilitate public understanding, to solicit input on the BeltLine Corridor transit and trails alternatives, and to identify potential consequences of alternative courses of action relative to the transportation, social, environmental and economic context. Use of the varying public involvement techniques outlined in the PIAC Plan invited and encouraged the public, federal, state, and local agencies the opportunity to review and comment on key project milestone decisions and to provide MARTA and ABI with the benefit of public insight throughout the project planning and development process. The PIAC Plan was developed in accordance with Section 6002 of Public Law 104-59 “Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for Users” (SAFETEA-LU), which mandates the development of a coordination plan for all projects for which an EIS is prepared under NEPA.
