Council discusses paying for conceptual plans to make Station 52 shovel-ready
Summary
Council discussed commissioning conceptual designs and renderings for a future Station 52 to make the project shovel-ready for grants or developer negotiations; staff estimated planning costs of $10,000–$20,000 and discussed using an architect familiar with local character.
Staff and fire leadership told council they want to commission a conceptual design study, renderings and a floor plan for a future Station 52 so the city can present a shovel‑ready project to potential funders or include station requirements as conditions of zoning. Staff estimated the conceptual work could cost between $10,000 and $20,000.
The fire official said the city sought an architect who understands Chattahoochee Hills’ character and presented a specific candidate the staff had consulted. "Let's stop talking about it. Let's let's let's take some some more aggressive action," the mayor said in urging progress toward a tangible plan. Council discussed whether to run a competitive RFP or work directly with a known architect and advised staff to return with cost and procurement options.
