Caption:Motion to approve Adult Entertainment ordinance amendment
to the Augusta, Georgia Code, Title 6, Chapter 1, Adult
Entertainment, Section 6-1-3 (g), to provide that an erotic dance
establishment business tax certificate holder is eligible to obtain
on-premise consumption alcohol licenses subject to the
regulations of the Augusta Alcohol Ordinance, and provided that
the establishment is in compliance with Section 6-1-9 of the
Adult Entertainment Ordinance that provides location
requirements. (Approved by the Commission on March 19,

Background:At the February 26, 2019 Public Service Committee meeting the

Department to prepare the necessary amendments to the Adult

Analysis:The current Adult Entertainment Ordinance prohibits the sale or

entertainment establishments that had a valid alcohol license on
the effective date of the amendments that prohibited the sale or
consumption, have a vested interest.

The attached project has been completed within the last 18

project to the Commission for approval prior to requesting
pricing.
Analysis:The proposed dedication plaque will be installed inside the

cast aluminum.
Financial Impact:Estimated to be approximately $2,500 per plaque.

Contract Amendment with Association Latina de Servicios of Del CSRA (ALAS)
Department:Housing and Community Development Department
Department:Housing and Community Development Department
Caption:Motion to approve Amending Housing and Community
Development’s (HCD's) 2015 Public Facility Contract with
Association Latina de Servicios of Del CSRA (ALAS) (for a
building at a new location) to reflect the change in scope of
work from New Construction to Acquisition. HCD will provide
funding in the amount of up to $140,000 to ALAS for the sole
purpose of acquiring the site location for the renovation of a
low-income clinic. ALAS will be responsible for renovating the
building into a medical center and parking lot to offer services to
the low/moderate income population of Augusta-Richmond
County. (Approved by Administrative Services Committee
March 26, 2019)
Background:Each year the Augusta, Georgia receives Community
Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds from the U.S.
Department of Housing & Urban Development (HUD). These
funds are used to fund agencies and projects to assist low-
income persons and revitalize low-income neighborhoods. The
Housing and Community Development (HCD) Department
annually solicits for proposals from agencies and develops
CDBG budgets which are incorporated into the City’s Annual
Action Plan and carried out through agreement with local
partners. On occasion, amendments to these agreements are
necessary to ensure that funds are expended in a timely and
effective manner. HCD, in partnership with ALAS, is requesting
this type of amendment to acquire and renovate a building into a
functioning medical facility. This project, originally Approved
in the FY2014 Annual Action Plan, was not able to solicit viable
market prices for the construction of a new facility as proposed
in the original scope of the project. Thus, in seeking to assist the
Partner Agency, ALAS, with meeting the growing need for
dedicated office space for their clinic activities, HCD proposed
shifting the Scope of the project to allocate the same financial
contribution for the purposes of acquiring an existing structure.
ALAS would then have the contractual responsibility to renovate
the acquired space into a functional clinic within a prescribed
timeframe to be stipulated in their final agreement. HCD is
requesting Approval to amend the existing contract agreement
with ALAS, originally executed in 2015, to reflect this revised
scope of work and related responsibilities that maintain the
integrity of the intent of the original agreement.
Analysis:Approval of the proposed contract amendment and related scope
of service will allow HCD to partner with ALAS in bringing this
concept of a low-income clinic to fruition. Approval of the
proposed contract amendment will also ensure the timely
expenditure of the funds currently obligated in the Agreement.
The City of Augusta has until 2021 to expend the funds
allocated to this project or these funds will be recaptured by the
U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.
Financial Impact:The City receives CDBG funding from the US Housing and
Urban Development Department on an annual basis. In this
proposed amendment to the Agreement with ALAS, HCD has
leveraged up to $140,000 in FY2015 CDBG funding against a
match commitment of $260,000 from ALAS to cover acquisition
cost shortfall and address the total renovation and interior
upgrade of the property.
Alternatives:Do not approve HCD's contract amendment request.
Recommendation:Approve Amending Housing and Community Development’s
(HCD's) 2015 Public Facility Contract to reflect the change in
scope of work from New Construction to Acquisition.

Commission Meeting Agenda
4/2/2019 2:00 PM
Approve the Changes to Section 4-2-6 - Fees, and Waive the Second Reading
Department:Environmental Services
Department:Environmental Services
Caption:Motion to approve an Ordinance amend the Augusta, Georgia
Section 4-2-6 related to Landfill Fees; To repeal all code
sections and ordinances and parts of code sections and
ordinances in conflict herewith; to provide and effective date
and for other purposes provided herein of the Augusta Code -
Fees for Environmental Services Department Landfill Fees.
(Approved by Engineering Services Committee March 26,
2019)
Background:In November 2018, ESD requested approval to draft a revision
to Section 4-2-6 of the Augusta Code. This section covers fees
for use of the Landfill. At this time, ESD is bringing the revised
Section back to the Committee and Commission for approval;
and requesting that the second reading be waived. The fees to
use the Landfill are set and have not been updated in
approximately 12 years. The current rates have been reviewed
and are competitive, however in order to remain in good
financial status, to work to attract additional customers, and to
reflect current and future operations, minor updates are
requested at this time.
Analysis:The following changes are requested at this time: 1. offer a
separate rate for clean construction and demolition waste at
$26/ton. 2. add a rate for commercial quantities of recyclables at
$25/ton. 3. add a minimum charge for non-commercial
customers at $6. Change the 4-6 bag fee from $2 to $3. 4. Allow
the Administrator the authority to approve a negotiated rate per
customer or per specific job. Augusta's landfill has not operated
with a separate rate for construction and demolition waste,
however, with other C&D landfills in the area, it is
recommended that Augusta offer a market-competitive rate for
C&D materials. Other landfills in the area offer C&D disposal
between $24.50 and $31.50, but they also offer a more detailed
rate structure (per size of truckload, or per mattress, for
example). Secondly, recyclables are currently accepted for no
charge, however this was intended for residential customers
only. With more neighboring communities wanting to recycle,
Augusta is requesting to set a rate to accept larger quantities of
recyclables. Finally, allowing the Administrator the authority to
approve a negotiated rate for special projects, usually larger
projects, to encourage the use of the Augusta landfill, is also
being requested at this time. This is a common practice at private
facilities, and again, will keep our landfill competitive in the
area.
Financial Impact:There is no financial impact at this time; however it is
anticipated that the proposed rate adjustments will attract more
customers to the facility.
Alternatives:1. do not approve, and allow the rates to remain as-is. 2. propose
additional changes in addition to those proposed herein.
Recommendation:Approve the recommended changes.
