CITY MANAGER'S AGENDA
April 23, 2019
I. STATE OPPORTUNITY ZONE APPLICATION RENEWAL:
Approval is requested to submit a State Opportunity Zone application
(for renewal) to the Georgia Department of Community Affairs (DCA). The
Georgia Opportunity Zone is a tax credit program sponsored by the Georgia
Department of Community Affairs. This is a program that offers state job tax
credits based on job creation in low-to-moderate income areas. The intent is to
help redevelop blighted areas in older neighborhoods or commercial corridors
and to attract jobs. The original Opportunity Zone was approved in 2015 and
was intended to be renewed in 2025. However, DCA wanted the Opportunity Zone to
run concurrent with the Enterprise Zone, which was extended in 2018; thus, it
had to be renewed much earlier than anticipated.
II. LEASE AGREEMENT - IGNITE PRO HOCKEY:
Approval is requested to enter into a five-year Agreement with Ignite
Pro Hockey, L.L.C. effective May 1, 2019. Ignite Pro Hockey, L.L.C. will have

revenue for the season of $75,000 to $95,000.
III. MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING - FORT BENNING MUTUAL AID AGREEMENT:
Approval is requested to enter into an agreement with U.S Army
Garrison, Fort Benning Georgia regarding a Memorandum of Understanding which

event natural or manmade disasters or emergency situations within the region.
IV. DONATIONS TO BRITT DAVID POTTERY STUDIO:
Approval is requested to accept any and all donations given to Britt
David Pottery Studio in memory of John Dodson. Temple Israel has requested to
donate chairs in memory of Mr. Dodson at no cost to the City as it is a private
donation.
V. DONATION OF LINE LAZER 3400 PAINT SPRAYER:
