                        The Subject Property is located in Land Lot 115 of the 12^th District of Clayton County, Georgia, more particularly described on Exhibit A Legal Description hereto and shown on Exhibit B Boundary Survey hereto, comprising 59.78 acres.

Recommendation of zoning: The Subject Property described above is currently zoned as RS-180, RS-110, and RS-110CR in Clayton County. In the City of Morrow, this property will be zoned RS-80 with a conditional use.  The conditional use requires the Subject Properties to retain their respective density restrictions as defined by Clayton County Zoning regulations. This conditional use will expire 18 months after the final annexation is approved and is designed to retain the density levels that currently exist.

Additionally, a one year moratorium is imposed on any further subdivision or re-subdivision of existing platted lots in the annexed area.  The purpose of this moratorium is to ensure no increase in density of the Subject Property occurs as a result of annexation.

Item 2:            Authorization for Mayor Jim Millirons to enter into a contract with Cooper & Company for the construction phase of the LCI Parking Deck (471). This project is funded in part by the Georgia Department of Transportation.
