Council approves charter corrections, sets 2025 election fees and authorizes $3.8M for Curiosity Lab campus
Summary
Peachtree Corners City Council on Jan. 28 approved a charter amendment to correct typographical errors and adjust several charter sections, set candidate qualification fees for the Nov. 4, 2025 municipal election, and authorized up to $3,800,000 for renovation and expansion of the Curiosity Lab Innovation Campus at 145 Technology Park.
The Peachtree Corners City Council on Jan. 28 approved several routine but actionable items: a third-reading charter amendment, a resolution setting municipal election qualification fees for Nov. 4, 2025, and a resolution authorizing up to $3,800,000 for the Curiosity Lab Innovation Campus Project at 145 Technology Park.
On the council's third reading, members approved amendments described as corrections to typographical errors in the charter preamble and edits to sections 3.12, 3.13, 4.11, 6.26 and 6.28. City Manager (name not specified) presented the item and opened a public hearing; no members of the public spoke in opposition or in favor. Following a motion and second, the council approved the charter amendment by voice vote; the meeting record reflects "all in favor" but does not provide a roll-call tally.
Council also approved a resolution establishing qualification fees for candidates in the Nov. 4, 2025 general municipal election. The item was presented by the city manager and passed without discussion; the council approved by voice vote.
The council approved a resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute contracts and expend funds for the Curiosity Lab Innovation Campus Project, following a work session discussion on the project. The action authorizes expenditures for renovation and campus expansion of the building at 145 Technology Park, adjacent to the existing Curiosity Labs facility, "not to exceed an amount of $3,800,000," as presented by staff. The council moved, seconded and approved the resolution by voice vote; the transcript records "all in favor" without an itemized vote tally.
Other procedural actions: council approved minutes of the Dec. 17 and Jan. 14 meetings by voice vote. The council voted to table a second-reading special use permit for a hotel-to-apartment conversion (7065 Jimmy Carter Boulevard) at staff request; that tabling and the zoning first reads are covered in a separate planning report.
All approvals recorded on Jan. 28 were taken by voice vote; the transcript does not include individual roll-call vote counts for the recorded motions.
