welcome to sandy springs

a letter from the mayor

Welcome to Sandy Springs, the center of commerce in the metro region. At just 10 years old, Sandy Springs is the geographic, commercial, communications, medical and retail heart of the Atlanta region, with companies such as United Parcel Service, Newell Rubbermaid, AirWatch, Cox Enterprises, First Data, Veritiv, Graphics Packaging International and Mercedes-Benz USA calling our city home. Even the parent company for the New York Stock Exchange, Intercontinental Exchange, has a Sandy Springs address.

Location matters, and whether it’s local, global or regional, Sandy Springs ranks high as a location center point. The city is served by five interstate interchanges on Interstate 285 and Ga. 400, the two most-traveled arteries in metro Atlanta with a half-million vehicles traveling up, down and around daily. Four MARTA rail stations touch Sandy Springs, all with a direct route to Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport. From Hartsfield, travelers are within a two-hour flight of 80 percent of the United States and a nonstop flight to and from many international destinations.

Our Central Perimeter district features the Southeast’s largest Class A office market with access to true multimodal commuting options — but quality of life is equally important. Sandy Springs is a city in a forest, with the largest tree canopy of any major U.S. city. If you like the color green, you’ll find it here, supplemented with award-winning parks, some tucked into the unlikeliest of places. The city rests on 22 miles of Chattahoochee River shoreline, so whether it’s aqua yoga or fly-fishing, we can accommodate you. Sandy Springs also is home to more than 300 restaurants that highlight cuisines from every corner of the globe. For night owls, the city is home to live music, theater and entertainment options, with new opportunities opening every week.

We are a city experiencing tremendous growth, and our confidence is high for the future because of the community commitment and shared goals, both business and residential. Sandy Springs is a pioneer in privatizing municipal services. The inherent efficiencies in this model provide us with the ability to invest in an aggressive capital improvement program that includes street paving, sidewalk and signal upgrades, storm water improvements, and the addition of park and green space. Our fiscal success is well-recognized, with leaders from around the world frequently stopping in to learn more.

With the development of our downtown area, named City Springs, we have embarked on our most ambitious project since incorporating in 2005. Sandy Springs is blessed with an amazing collection of neighborhoods, but we have always lacked that connective tissue — that one central place the community can call “our place.”

When complete, City Springs will be home to a performing arts theater, a studio theater and meeting space, and a large outdoor park and lawn venue in addition to retail and residential offerings. With underground parking and connectivity to enhance surrounding facilities such as Heritage Green, we’re creating a space that unites us.

It’s an exciting time, yet we’re also mindful that even successful times require work and nurturing.

Transportation, not only within Sandy Springs, but throughout the region, remains a forefront issue. Along with growth in the business sector, we must maintain an eye on quality-of-life issues, as those go hand-in-hand. As a community we came together to form a city, and as a collective community, we’ll continue to work together to build Sandy Springs for the next decade and beyond.

Sincerely, Rusty Paul | Mayor City of Sandy Springs

a letter from the chamber chair We at the Sandy Springs Perimeter Chamber want to welcome you to the Sandy Springs Perimeter area, whether you’ve been here for years or are new to this beautiful city.

In the downtown district of Sandy Springs, the City Springs project is well underway, with an estimated completion date of Dec. 31, 2017. This $300 million mixed-use project —with beautiful green space and fountains, a 1,000-plus-seat performing arts center, high-end restaurants and retail stores, a new city hall and more — will have an incredible impact as a new central hub.

Citizen Response Center … how can I help you?”

That’s the voice of Amber, one of the representatives at Sandy Springs’ 24-hour call center. Night or day, residents can call this central non-emergency number to reach a live person who directly connects them to city services and personnel. It’s part of the city’s strong commitment to responsive government.

Sandy Springs, positioned just north of Atlanta, is the second-largest city in the metro area and the sixth-largest in the state. It is a city that prizes both efficiency and grace.

The city boasts modern high-rise office towers and beautiful garden neighborhoods, international consulates, world-class hospitals, unique local eateries and 20 miles of green space along the Chattahoochee River. Under construction is City Springs, the community’s future downtown area comprising a performing arts facility, meeting space, city offices, green space, housing and a bit of commercial space.

The city’s growing population of 100,000 is augmented by the 100,000-plus people who come to work in the city each day.

Sandy Springs has been recognized by City Biz as a “Most Livable Midsize City” and Nerdwallet as a “Best Small City for Working Women” and a “City on the Rise.” Red Tricycle named Morgan Falls Overlook Park one of metro Atlanta’s 10 Best.

Sandy Springs also has been recognized as one of the most attractive U.S. cities in which to do business. Mercedes-Benz chose to move its U.S. headquarters here in 2015. Other companies with Sandy Springs headquarters include United Parcel Service, Newell Rubbermaid, First Data, Cox Enterprises, AirWatch, Graphic Packaging and Intercontinental Exchange, the New York Stock Exchange’s parent company.

Sandy Springs has a burgeoning biotech and medical sector. It provides 40 percent of Atlanta’s hospital beds, and the medical district is an employment hub with three hospitals — Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta, Emory St. Joseph and Northside — all nationally recognized for their excellence.

Sandy Springs has come a long way since its beginnings on the sandy banks of a natural spring.

mayor, and the band of residents who supported cityhood set up a new form of government. This governance comprises a very successful public-private partnership in which all city services aside from public safety are contracted to private companies.

This efficient model is prized by the city’s active and involved citizenry, its Chamber of Commerce and its many civic organizations.

Sandy Springs, which sits on the north edge of Atlanta at the junction of I-285 and Ga. 400, blends business areas and neighborhoods that branch off Roswell Road, its north-south spine.

The Perimeter Center business area runs east-west along I-285, lighting up north Atlanta’s skyline with office towers silhouetted against the horizon.

At its base are wide pedestrian paths, green spaces and bike lanes that weave among the buildings.

Sandy Springs’ 63 percent tree cover gives business executives, young tech professionals and families with children a home on its streets of exquisite houses, trendy condos and cozy apartments.

freshwater spring bubbling up out of the ground in the location that is now occupied by the Sandy Springs Historic Site and Museum. In the early 1800s, this was the edge of the Georgia frontier.

The Chattahoochee River was the dividing line between the United States and the Cherokee Nation. More settlers moved in once gold was discovered. The area was settled through a land lottery in the 1820s. It was previously called Oak Grove, Hammond and Burdal. A popular camp meeting was held on the sandy banks of a natural spring. When

a post office was built there in the early 1900s, the name Sandy Springs was a natural choice.

In the 1920s, it was a popular getaway for Atlantans looking for a summer destination, including Coca-Cola’s Asa Candler. By midcentury, Sandy Springs’ own population had surged.

Residents first attempted to incorporate as a city in the 1960s. In 2005, under the determined leadership of Eva Galambos, Sandy Springs became the state’s first new city in almost 50 years. Galambos became the city’s first SANDY SPRINGS PERIMETER CHAMBER

work. You’ll be happy to know, then, that Sandy Springs is full of recreational opportunities, whether you want to fish or canoe 20 miles of Chattahoochee River shoreline; hike, bike or ride horses; kick back at one of our 16 parks; grab a gourmet meal or a quick burger on the go; shop until you drop; listen to some jazz; or go to the theater.

arts & entertainment

Exciting artistic developments are afoot in Sandy Springs. A nonprofit called Art Sandy Springs (ARTSS) was formed by business professionals, financiers, doctors, lawmakers, teachers and artists, and is designed to join all segments of the community together to make fine arts a focus of daily life.

Sponsored events are intended to bring music, theater and literature to Sandy Springs residents and employees. For more information about scheduled activities and events, contact ARTSS at 404-255-3331 or check www.artsandysprings.org/ Calendar.htm.

Stage Door Players, founded in 1974, has evolved into a respected professional theater with a six-show season as well as cabaret and children’s events. A sign of its quality: multiple productions nominated for Suzi Bass awards, metro Atlanta’s equivalent to Broadway’s Tony awards.

SANDY SPRINGS CONSERVANCY + ABERNATHY LINEAR PARK

A giant yellow arachnid seems to rise from the ground at the corner of Abernathy and Wright roads. Don’t worry though, it’s just a climbing structure for play at Abernathy Linear Park.

The 6.6-acre site also provides a walking and biking trail for neighborhood residents and anyone who lives in or visits Sandy Springs.

Six whimsical and original play structures designed by artists from across the nation line the park, including an enormous dragonfly that doubles as a slide and climbing area. Walls and paths of brick and stone run through the park, which is planted with evergreens, roses and ornamental grasses. Water oaks that are 75 years old and a covered pavilion provide shade.

“This park is a true representation of community partnership,” says Sandy Springs Mayor Rusty Paul.

When the widening of Abernathy Road was discussed, residents came to the city with the idea of a linear park, Paul says. The Sandy Springs Conservancy and 10 surrounding neighborhoods worked together on the Abernathy Greenway Committee to make the green space a reality.

The conservancy, in collaboration with Art Sandy Springs, received a grant from Northside Hospital to build the playable sculptures. But that’s not its only project.

Since 2007, the conservancy has collaborated with the Sandy Springs City Parks Department on a new trail at Lost Corner Nature Preserve, and a linear park on the opposite side of Abernathy Road is under construction. Keep looking, there will be more.

It all speaks to the conservancy’s mission — protecting natural resources and promoting the community-building benefits of well-designed parks and natural areas.

Well-designed green spaces raise property values, says John Crompton, a Texas A&M University professor, who spoke at the organization’s 2015 Thought Leader Dinner.

Parks and recreational amenities also attract business and talent to a community — something Sandy Springs knows well.

HERITAGE SANDY SPRINGS

The community that became Sandy Springs was once centered around an actual spring of clear water.

“It’s been a gathering place for generations,” says Carol Thompson, executive director of the nonprofit Heritage Sandy Springs. People would gather there for camp meetings.

The location is a thriving gathering place again because of Heritage Sandy Springs, which manages a museum, event space and the 4-acre Heritage Green park there.

Concerts commence on the lawn throughout the summer, including a Sunday afternoon series and Rhythm & Brews on Thursday nights. The Sandy Springs Festival at Heritage Green, which attracts some 25,000 spectators, draws 25,000 people over two days features 120 artists, plus business and civic exhibits, children’s activities and music .

The Sandy Springs Farmers Market can be found here on Saturday mornings from April to November.

“It’s one of my favorite things,” Thompson says. The farmers market is a community event where you can see people, shop from local farmers and hear music. It attracts people of all ages who walk, bike and push strollers to get there.

The Heritage Sandy Springs Museum is on the site in a restored 1860s farmhouse. Exhibits tell the community’s story. The site is also a go-to spot for weddings, meetings and fundraisers. The city of Sandy Springs owns the property; Heritage Sandy Springs has a 30-year lease to manage it.

“We’re the keeper of the history and want to tell the story of this community,” Thompson says, then talks about a small structure built over the springs in the meadow. They’re refurbishing it and adding signage to explain its history.

To this dedicated organization, heritage is everything.

The median family income in Sandy Springs is a healthy $106,069 a year, making shopping and dining popular activities.

“I love music,” says Steve Grossman, standing in the wood-paneled entrance of his selfnamed business, found in a small gray building on Hilderbrand Drive. Inside, antique radios line the walls. To the right is a bar and listening room, where bands perform American and international folk music seven nights a week.

Grossman opened Steve’s Live Music in 2012 after retiring as a financial analyst with UPS. The building, which dates to the 1940s, has been a dance studio, a restaurant and the site of Red Baron Antiques. Today it’s a highly original music venue, a place to find musicians you can’t find elsewhere.

They range from Georgia-based guitarist and singer-songwriter Beverly “Guitar” Watkins to Russian virtuoso Angelina Galashenkova-Reed, who plays the domra, a longnecked Russian stringed instrument.

“These are the kinds of things I want people to see,” Grossman says. ”They’re unique.”

Monday is Celtic Night here. On Tuesday you’ll hear bluegrass, and on Thursday it’s the blues, but you’ll also find jazz, polka and klezmer. On weekends, cover bands perform, as do singer-songwriters with original music. In a sense, Steve’s place is a bar, performance venue and museum all rolled into one. There’s also a room that’s an art gallery, with new exhibits each month.

“It’s a living museum of music,” Grossman says.

Beer, wine and spirits are served, and the kitchen turns out vegetarian and fish dishes (no meat), in keeping with Grossman’s own food preferences.

But music is the main course.

Domra player Galashenkova-Reed, Grossman says, is in the same league as renowned violinist Itzhak Perlman.

Now an Atlantan, Galashenkova-Reed and classical guitarist John Huston perform together in the band 9 String Theory.

“In Russia,” Grossman says, “you’d go to the symphony to hear her.”

In Sandy Springs, you’d go to Steve’s Live Music.

MCKENDRICK’S STEAK HOUSE

For 20 years McKendrick’s Steak House has enjoyed success as one of Atlanta’s must-attend restaurants for any and every special occasion.

The Independent Retail Cattleman’s Association has named it one of the “Great Steak Houses of North America,” a rare and coveted honor, while Zagat calls it “beyond excellent.”

Wine Spectator in 2015 named it a restaurant award winner, praising especially McKendrick’s Bordeaux and its massive inventory. McKendrick’s also has been named one of the top steakhouses in Atlanta by The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Atlanta magazine and Open Table, among others.

2015 was an especially big year for owners Doug and Claudia

McKendrick. Their restaurant celebrated 20 years in business, no small feat, and Doug won a GRACE Award for lifetime achievement from the Georgia Restaurant Association.

McKendrick’s, conveniently located near Perimeter Mall, offers classic steakhouse dishes as well as off-menu cuts combined with locally grown fresh produce. Chef Thomas Minchella’s menu is led by such treats as dry-aged, bone-in ribeye; South African lobster tails; four-cheese macaroni with lobster; roasted apple cobbler; and warm banana white chocolate bread pudding. Locals and visitors alike keep coming back for the superior food and consistently great service. McKendrick’s also is a traditional American steakhouse

advertorial in décor, featuring dark woods, soft lighting and spacious leather booths.

This is the perfect spot whether you’re seeking a romantic night out or planning a large business event. You need only experience McKendrick’s Steak House once to leave as family.

Owner Doug McKendrick wins the Georgia Restaurant Association’s 2015 Lifetime Achievement Award!

city center community improvement district

The community spirit and economic momentum of Sandy Springs is evident in City Springs, a development enclosed

by Roswell, Mount Vernon and Johnson Ferry roads and Sandy Springs Circle.

When completed, the project will include a performing arts center, studio theater, meeting space, park land, and retail and residential space as well as city offices.

“It just expands your imagination,” Sandy Springs resident Larry James said at the unveiling of the plans. “This is going to be an outstanding facility.”

The public-private venture will include a large park along one side and

a small commercial center on the other side with water features throughout.

Two privately developed residential buildings will anchor the end along Sandy Springs Circle.

City Springs is being developed with these goals in mind: • C reate a unique, vibrant, walkable City Center rich in amenities desired by the community, such as commercial retail, recreational and cultural facilities.

• Catalyze significant market-driven private investment in walkable, mixed-use redevelopment that introduces substantial new dining,

in Sandy Springs, and workers flow into the city from every direction. “We sit smack-dab in the middle of where everyone lives,” Hall says.

The population, growing by about 2,000 people per year, is highly educated.

Metro Atlanta is among the Top 10 metro areas for the number of collegeeducated 25- to 34-year-olds. The number of college graduates here is 24 percentage points higher than the region as a whole, and the large number of metro Atlanta colleges and universities provide a skilled work force.

The large number of Fortune 500 firms, technology companies, the Medical District and Perimeter Center shopping area creates a strong market for goods and services.

The city’s innovative public-private government model makes it particularly effective. Since 2010, Sandy Springs has reduced business license fees, established an Opportunity Zone with job tax credits and created an Economic Development Incentive Policy.

Visionary leadership connects the community in ways that provide enormous benefits.

Business leaders, for example, step into the shoes of school principals in the innovative “Principal for a Day” project.

They learn firsthand the challenges and successes that educators face. And principals of the 11 public schools, as well as the Fulton County school superintendent, become “CEO for a Day,” learning from senior management about work force needs. Educators get extra insight into how to prepare students for future jobs.

The project is a collaboration between Sandy Springs Perimeter Chamber and Fulton County Schools, which recently moved its headquarters to Sandy Springs.

The city will benefit from new developments in the yet-to-come City Center (opening in 2017) and improvements to the I-285/Roswell Road corridor and Perimeter Center. These projects enhance and stimulate smallbusiness growth and the city as a whole.

Sandy Springs also has a wide inventory of commercial real estate, able to meet the needs of nearly every company.

economic development amenity retail and entertainment options. This will both achieve City Center development goals and strengthen the district’s ability to support Sandy Springs’ fiscal goals.

• Create an appropriate setting for a new civic/cultural center that functions as a place of community activity and identity.

• Create a comprehensive infrastructure to support City Center, to include walkable streets, storm water, traffic flow, transit services, bicycling facilities, parking, utilities and signage.

• Introduce a green space network that accommodates a variety of activities, draws activity from new development and ties together City Center, Sandy Springs’ established neighborhoods and existing open spaces.

CSM BAKERY SOLUTIONS

Bite into a biscotti or nibble on a glazed doughnut with sprinkles. If you enjoy the tangle of sweet flavors, there’s a good chance that CSM Bakery Solutions contributed to the experience.The global maker of bakery ingredients and products sells to 45,000 customers in 100 countries; this year, CSM is moving its global headquarters and $3 billion business from Amsterdam to Sandy Springs.

Why Sandy Springs?

“Critical in our decision were the area’s transportation infrastructure, schools, cost and quality of housing, and business-friendly atmosphere — all in support of our multicultural workforce,” said President and CEO Robert Sharpe.

As tasty as its products are, company leaders like to say that their best ingredients are their people. And Sandy Springs has the right mix to attract a workforce expected to grow to 800.

Jobs at the headquarters will include senior leadership, sales, marketing, business development, administration and other support positions.

The company also will build a Customer Experience Center to showcase its products and ideas.

CSM produces such finished products as cakes, doughnuts, muffins and brownies.

It also supplies such specialized ingredients as dry mixes, icings and batters. Among its many brands is the Marguerite line of French pastry ingredients. It includes such mouthwatering edibles as almond paste, custard fillings and glazes. It also sells high-quality flours and mousse mixes under the Marguerite label.

The company, which began in the Netherlands, has 8,500 employees in 34 manufacturing plants, 26 distribution centers and four innovation centers around the world.

The Sandy Springs move allows CSM to consolidate some regional functions into one central location.

“Moving a company’s headquarters is not a simple undertaking,” said Sandy Springs Mayor Rusty Paul. “We appreciate the confidence CSM Bakery Solutions has in both the state of Georgia and the city of Sandy Springs.”

economic development perimeter community improvement districts

Perimeter Center is one of the Southeast’s largest business districts.

Its infrastructure is supported and promoted by the Perimeter Community Improvement Districts (PCIDs), two self-taxing districts that work together to produce creative solutions.

The PCIDs are a model of

infrastructure planning. They’ve been a prime force behind the largest surface transportation project in Georgia history, which is underway now — the re-creation of the I-285 and Ga. 400 interchange.

“We’ve been in a very strong advisory role over the last eight to 10 years for that project,” said Yvonne Williams, president and CEO of the PCIDs. “It’s a gateway to the major enterprise

center, the Fortune 500 center of the U.S.,” she said.

When Gov. Nathan Deal announced the project in 2014, he said it would expand Georgia’s role as “a major logistics hub for global commerce.”

PCIDs put up $10 million to push for the project and keep it in the forefront, providing information to the business community and state decision-makers.

Project Connect is another innovative solution from the PCIDs. This free consulting service presents alternative commuting options to Perimeter Center businesses and employees. It also helps companies put together telecommuting policies, offering a major benefit to employees.

The PCIDS have won Golden Shoe awards, which come from the metro Atlanta pedestrian-advocacy group PEDS, for three consecutive years.

They were honored for making the Perimeter Center area attractive as well as pedestrian- and bike-friendly.

The improved streetscapes, crosswalks and landscaping benefit businesses and residents. “It’s a great return on investment,” Williams said.

MERCEDES-BENZ USA

When CEO Stephen Cannon envisions the new Mercedes-Benz USA headquarters, he sees light and air — a working space with transparent walls and open floors that encourage collaboration.

The company relocated to Sandy Springs from New Jersey in 2015 and expects its new building to be ready sometime in 2017.

“The move has become transformative for our company,” Cannon told the Sandy Springs Perimeter Chamber. “We have found a deep talent pool here and were able to bring on about 300 new employees relatively quickly.”

The company is building a $93 million, 250,000-sq. ft. office building campus on a 12-acre slice of land on the southern side of Abernathy Road near Ga. 400. The office complex will, in essence, anchor a planned residential and retail project.

The location will help Mercedes-Benz USA attract young workers from intown Atlanta as well as executives who can find housing anywhere from Buckhead to the northern suburbs.

“The new workforce has already stimulated innovation,” Cannon said.

He sees his role as charting the company’s course and then investing in people and a corporate culture that allows success to happen. The new headquarters is being designed to encourage the type of company culture he’s creating.

The company hasn’t wasted any time becoming an integral part of the community. The $1.4 billion downtown Atlanta stadium under construction for the NFL’s Falcons bears it name. Mercedes-Benz made a 27-year deal with the Falcons for naming rights.

The retractable-roof, multipurpose stadium is under construction just south of the current Georgia Dome, at the intersection of Northside Drive and Martin Luther King Boulevard. It will be the home of the new Atlanta United FC of major-league soccer as well as the Falcons.

“Here in Sandy Springs, we have found a vibrant and supportive business community,” Cannon said. “I can’t thank you enough for how welcoming you’ve been.”

Axiall’s name may be new, but the business is old, and its roots run deep in Georgia.

From its Sandy Springs headquarters, the executives of this Fortune 1000 company oversee a $5 billion business making some of the most widely used building materials in the country.

“The company has a legacy in the Atlanta area,” says Chip Swearngan, chief of communications.

It’s the grandchild of Georgia-Pacific, the pulp and paper company that grew out the state’s timber-rich heart.

In the 1970s, Georgia-Pacific created a division in Louisiana to produce chemicals used in making plywood and fiberboard. It mined the salt domes near Placquemine to generate salt brine, which produces chlorine and other chemicals when electric current is applied. A plant in the area also produced polyvinyl chloride (PVC).

Executives took a risk in 1984 and spun off from the parent company, naming their new creation Georgia Gulf. Georgia Gulf merged with a division of PPG Industries in 2013 to become Axiall.

About a year ago, the company moved to new offices at NorthPark, Swearngan says. The accounting, finance, human resources, sales and IT teams all work from this office in Sandy Springs.

Axiall, which sits near the axis of I-285 and Ga. 400, has a wide reach across the country.

Ga. 400 is easily accessible and the complex has a MARTA station.

The essence of the company is the production of chemicals for the construction industry.

“Axial” is a word used in both chemistry (axial bonds, axial flow) and construction (axial plans, axial orientation).

Axiall has a variety of products, all relating to the manufacture of chlorine. They range from chlorine itself — used in water treatment facilities — to PVC pipe and windows, doors and siding.

Axiall is the third-largest siding manufacturer in North America with 6,000 employees and 25 manufacturing facilities in North America.

stations. The major expressways meeting in Sandy Springs — I-285 and Ga. 400 — provide access to I-85, I-75 and I-20.

The $1 billion project underway to re-create the Ga. 400/I-285 interchange will include 30 flyover bridges and lanes alongside Ga. 400 to keep local traffic off the expressway. Drivers will find it far easier and safer to navigate the interchange because they won’t have to weave across lanes, Williams said.

Interchanges that have already been enhanced include the Ga. 400/Hammond Half-Diamond, which is “helping retain office tenants and open up opportunities for new development in Sandy Springs,” Williams said.

On surface streets, Sandy Springs has focused on smoothing and speeding traffic with an innovative monitoring system. The Perimeter Traffic Operations Program, supported by the PCIDs, has synchronized 99 traffic signals. Traffic engineers monitor the system daily from a Sandy Springs control center and remote locations.

The system responds to traffic incidents and looks at how traffic patterns change when a new company moves in, adjusting the traffic flow accordingly.

PCIDs also pay for officers to monitor traffic at intersections during peak times and keep it flowing.

transportation

If you’re seeking a location in the center of it all, you’ve found a home in Sandy Springs. Situated just north of Atlanta, Sandy Springs is served by five interstate interchanges on Interstate 285 and Ga. 400. For those who frequently travel by air, Sandy Springs is 30 minutes by car or MARTA train from HartsfieldJackson Atlanta International Airport (ATL), the busiest airport in the world.

The airport, called the most-traveled based on passenger volume, helps nearly 250,000 passengers each day and more than 92 million each year. From Hartsfield-Jackson, you’re within a twohour flight of 80 percent of the U.S. population.* Two additional airfields offer commuter and regional air service.

Other transportation options include bus service and Amtrak rail lines.

Where some cities claim that they operate “like” a business, in Sandy Springs, we operate “with” business. The city employs a public-private model for the provision of general city services. The City Manager, two Assistant City Managers, Finance Director, City Clerk, Court Administrator and Human Resources Director are among the city staff.

Many other services are provided through contracted service agreements with the private sector, including public works (road-paving, sidewalk-building), community development (building and code enforcement), courts, finance, and recreation and parks.

The result is a service delivery model that is responsive, efficient and effective. Since becoming a

52

SANDY SPRINGS PERIMETER CHAMBER

city, Sandy Springs leaders have devoted more than $220 million in funded capital projects. More than 170 miles of roads have been paved and 35-plus miles of sidewalks installed. The city has completed more than 930 storm-water repairs, and its 129 traffic signals are controlled by a highly functioning Traffic Management Center.

Have a question? Call the City’s Call Center, 770-730-5600, which operates 24/7/365 and has a friendly human answering every call. Have an emergency? The city’s 9-1-1 center also operates under the public-private model, with response times a mandated part of the performance contract.

The city has also invested in green space, spending upward of $20 million in recreational improvements, including the addition of the award-winning Morgan Falls Overlook Park and Abernathy Greenway Linear Park.

government City a trailblazer in public-private model

government In the works is the city’s most ambitious project to date: the creation of City Springs, soon to be the city’s community focal point. When completed, City Springs will feature a performing arts center, studio theater, meeting and park space, city offices, and retail and residential options, all within a walkable environment.

fast facts

The public-private model is practical and cost-effective. Among its advantages:

District 4: Gabriel Sterling gsterling@sandyspringsga.gov

• Form of government: council/ manager

District 5: Tibby DeJulio tdejulio@sandyspringsga.gov

• City council members are elected every four years, one to represent each of the city’s six districts with the mayor elected at large.

District 6: Andy Bauman abauman@sandyspringsga.gov

• Improved customer focus, efficiency and effectiveness.

• More flexibility in service delivery (resource allocation, processes and shared services).

• The ability to hire experts in the field and use a smaller city work force.

• Performance guarantees that hold contractors accountable for meeting goals.
