As of April 2020, only an estimated 31 dwelling units had been constructed within the Twin Lakes Planned Unit Based on review of building permit activity reports, the housing stock in Hoschton has more than doubled since 2020 to an estimated: 2,472 units as of April 1, 2024. The increase in housing units has included detached, single-family dwelling units, fee-simple townhouses and age-restricted (senior) attached and non-attached units. Because of the diversification of types of units in Hoschton, the average household size of2.73 persons per household in 2020 has been reduced slightly to an estimated 2.68 persons per unit as of April 1, 2024.

May 2024. Hoschton's population in 2044 is projected to be 23,189 persons. Population growth in Hoschton is definitely not expected to be spread uniformly across the 20-year planning period (horizon). Rather, the vast majority oft the new housing units in Hoschton will be constructed by 2029, with housing starts weighted proportionally much heavier in the next five years. The projections of housing units and population in Table 1 are based on the assumption that the city will buildout (almost entirely, if not entirely) its residential lands within the city limits during the twenty-year planning horizon (2044). As noted above, the city does not have any nursing homes or other "group quarters" population. The projections of population include the forecast that, later in the planning horizon, Hoschton will become home to one or more institutionalized residential living arrangements such as nursing or congregate Hoschton has a relatively modest economic base, consisting of restaurants, retail trade establishments, services, andi institutions and industries. Employment data for transportation analysis zones (TAZs), prepared as a part of the. Jackson County Transportation Plan in 2019, were used to prepare employment estimates for this CIE. For projections and forecasts, the city's consulting planner utilizeda a care homes, adding 280 persons in group quarters. 2 Chapter 80 Capital Improvements Element (CIE), Hoschton Comprehensive Plan buildout analysis of nonresidential lands and estimated employment on the basis of1 employee per 1,000 square feet of nonresidential space of new nonresidential development. Employment increases are forecasted to also be more heavily weighted during the five years rather than being spread evenly Hoschton's impact fee program includes public safety facilities and services (police). The service population for police is the population plus employment, or in other words, the "functional" population. As indicated inl Table 1, the population is added together with employment to determine the functional over the 20-year planning horizon. population. PARK AND OPEN SPACE LAND Service Area The service areai for park and open space land is the city limits. Inventory Table 3 shows the inventory of park and open space lands within the City of Hoschton as of May 2024. Thei inventory does noti include part of a ballfield that is owned by the.

Jerry Weitz & Associates, Inc., July 2023, updated May 2024. Existing Level of Service (LOS) and Level of Service Standard Since residents are the users of park and open space lands, the level of service measure and standard for park and open space land is based on the residential population. The citye established the following level ofs service measure in thet first CIE in 2020: acres of park and open space land per 1,000 residents. Int the initial CIE, adopted in September 2020, the city adopted a level ofs service standard for park and open space land of 5.33 acres per 1,000 residents, the same as the existing level of service in 2020. Since 2020 and the adoption of park and open space impact fees, the city has added significantly to its park land but has also added thousands ofr new residents. The existing level ofs service for park and open space land in Hoschton as of May 2024 is 37.10 acres of park and open space land for 6,645 residents, or 5.58 acres per1,000 resident population. Thanks to the substantial purchase of additional park and open space land via from the Blankenship family, the city has kept up with rapidly increasing demands and has a very slight surplus of land as of May 2024. The existing level ofs service of 5.58 acre per 1,000 exceeds the adopted level of service. standard of 5.33 acres per: 1,000. However, the current surplus will be short lived, because of even more intensive population growth projected during the next five yearsas described furtheri int the next section. Assessment and Projection of Demands Table 4 provides a projection of park and open space land demands based on the projected residential population. The city has a current park and open space land inventory of 37.10 acres as of2 2024 (see Table 4 above). Table 4 City of Hoschton Projection of Park and Open Space Land Demands, 2024-2044 (@ Current Level of Service Standard of! 5.33 acres per 1,000 Residents) Type of Land Total Population 2024 6,645 35.10 2029 14,573 77.67 2044 18,823 100.32 Cumulative demand for new park and open space acres (@ LOS standard of 5.33 acres per 1,000 residents) Source: Jerry Weitz & Associates, May 2024. Looking at the population growth projected during the upcoming five years, at the adopted level of service standard of 5.33 acres of park and open space land per 1,000 residents, the city would have to add another 42.57 acres of park and open space land in just five years, meaning the current inventory would have to more than double ins size. That substantial additional demand is based on expected residential development of "Tribute" planned unit development and development of other extensive rezonings for additional dwelling units in 2023. Looking at the entire 20-year planning horizon, 4 Chapter 8 Capital Improvements Element (CIE), Hoschton Comprehensive Plan Hoschton's park/open space land inventory would have to increase to more than 100 acres (a 200% There are several reasons why maintaining the adopted level of service standard of 5.33 acres per 1,000 residents is problematic int the future. First, the accelerated pace of development in Hoschton means that the supply of tracts of land inside the city limits that are vacant and available for purchase by the city for park and open space land is dwindling substantially. It appears increasingly unrealistic that the city will be able to purchase land within the cityl limits to meet the adopted park and open space land standard of5 5.33 acres per 1,000 population.?1 The city must spend its park and open space impact fees within the service area which is the cityl limits, sO purchasing land outside the city with impact fees is not Secondly, the vast majority of the population growth that is anticipated in Hoschton will occur within planned unit developments, which by definition provide 20 percent or more of the land area as open space. This means that some oft the demands for park and open space land are anticipated tol be met with open spaces and parks within these new planned unit developments. This is another reason to consider and adopt a reduced level ofs service standard for park and open space land. Another factor that positively supports a reduction of level of service standard is that the city currently meets and exceeds the adopted level of service standard for park and open space land. This means iti isa most opportune time to change the level of service standard, if necessary, because there is no current "deficiency" of park and open space land that would have to be funded with monies other than impact increase) to meet the currently adopted level of service standard. an option. fees. Revised Level of Service Standard For the reasons provided in the foregoing paragraphs, this Capital Improvements Element includesa formal change in the level of service standard from! 5.33 acres per 1,000 population to al lower standard of 4.00 acres per: 1,000 population. The city hereby adopts the level of service standard of 4.00 acres per 1,000 for the city'si impact fee program. Even at this newly adopted level ofs service standard, the city will still have its work cut out fori itself, because iti is still an extensive amount of land to acquire. Table 5 shows the demands for park and recreation land and the revised/readopted level of service standard. Even with the lower standard, the city will still have extensive park and open space land acquisitions required to maintain the newly adopted standard of 4.00 acres of park and open space land per 1,000 residents. During the next five years, the city will need to add 21.19 additional acres to its current (2024) supply of park and open space land. And during the 20-year planning period (2044), the city will need to add 38.19 acres to its park and open space inventory. 2The city's rezoning of the Pirkle tract included conditions of approval that require the extensive dedication of open space land at or about thet time that property develops. However, duet to the change in ownership of the Pirkle tract, future development is expected to change, and development of that tract is not imminent. Because it may be years before that tract develops, the cityi is unable to count on the dedication of additional open space land from the Pirkle tract that would count toward meeting the currently adopted level of service. standard for park and open space land. 5 Chapter 8 Capital Improvements Element (CIE), Hoschton Comprehensive Plan Table! 5 City of Hoschton Projection of Park and Open Space Land Demands, 2024-2044 (@ Newly Adopted Level of Service Standard of 4.00 acres per 1,000 Residents) Type of Land Total Population 2024 6,645 26.58 2029 14,573 58.29 2044 18,823 75.29 Cumulative demand for new park and open: space acres (@ LOS standard of4.00 acres per 1,000 residents) Source: Jerry' Weitz & Associates, May 2024.

Jackson County Sheriff's Department stills serves backup functions and covers time periods when city police are not working. Since establishment of the police department, the city has added additional personnel. Service Area The service areai for law enforcement (police and municipal court) is the city limits of Hoschton. Inventory In 2023, Hoschton opened its new city hall and community center at City Square. The building that used to be city hall (3,188 square feet at 79 City Square) was then devoted exclusively to police and municipal court space. Thei inventory is shown in Table 7.

Level of Service (LOS) Measures and Standards Total Building Space (Square Feet) 3,188 Since both residential and nonresidential development are served by law enforcement facilities and services, the level of service measure and standard for police facilities are based on the functional In September 2020, the city adopted a level of service measure for law enforcement (police and courts) of square feet of police building space per functional population. Police vehicles are not included in the impact fee program, because they do not qualify as' "capital improvements" (i.e., they do not have a useful life of 10 years or more). In September 2020, the city adopted al level of service standard for law enforcement (police and court) facilities of 0.95 square feet of police building per functional population. population. No change is proposed to the adopted level of service standard. Assessment and Projection of Demands Table 8 provides a projection of police and court (law enforcement) space needed. 7 Chapter 8 Capital Improvements Element (CIE), Hoschton Comprehensive Plan Table 8 City of Hoschton Projection of Police and Court Building Space Demands, 2024-2044 2024 7,645 7,262 2029 18,128 17,221 2044 23,189 22,029 Functional population of Hoschton functional population Cumulative new police and court building space (square feet) needed (@ LOS standard of0.95 square feet per Source:. Jerry' Weitz & Associates, May 2024. With a current inventory of 3,188 square feet, the city is currently far short ofr meeting the current demand for police facility space. There is a current deficiency of 4,074 square feet ofl law enforcement space that must be reconciled (paid for and provided) by the city within a reasonable period of time without usingi impact fees (except for those fees that have already been collected and have not been expended). In other words, except for current police facility impact fee balance of funds, the 4,074 square feet of additional space needed is attributed toi the existing functional population and cannot be funded with impact fees from new development. That point ist factored into the schedule of improvements below. By 2029, the city will need 17,221 square feet of police and court space to serve the projected functional population, plus it will ultimately want to plan for the replacement ofe existing space (3,188 square feet) asar result of relocation of police facilities to a new building. This means the city needs to plan fora police and court facility space of 20,409 square feet by 2029. By 2044, the city will need to plan for 25,217 square feet of police/court space. Schedule of Improvements The schedule of improvements for police and court facility space is provided in Table 9. Increases in residential population and employment (i.e., the "functional" population) will create the need fora substantial capital improvement (building space) for law enforcement. Keeping in mind that the city will move all ofi its police facility spaces and municipal court into a new facility and free up the current space at 79 City Square for commercial space, the city must factori int the replacement of the 3,188 square feet of space now used for police and court but which will no longer be utilized. Hence, the future building improvement must take into account the current deficiency of 4,074 square feet, plus the total existing inventory that will be discontinued (3,188 square feet), forat total of7,262 square feet. The city is able to utilize all law enforcement impact fees currently held, for the purpose of building new facilities. 8 Chapter 8 Capital Improvements Element (CIE), Hoschton Comprehensive Plan Table 9 Schedule of Improvements, 2024-2029 Police and Municipal Court (Dollars) City of Hoschton 2026 2027 Capital Improvement/ Authorized expenditure Acquire and prepare 450.000 site for new police and courts space (3 acres @ $150,000 per acre (may be share of larger land assemblage to include city hall) Architecture and engineering @ 15% of cost of building spacef for 20,409 square feet Construct: 20,409 square feet of police and courts space (@ $300 per square feet) TOTAL SHOWN 2024 2025 2028 2029 Total Source %Eligible 2024- of for Funding 2029 Funds with Impact Fees IF; Current capital impactf fees funds, held (100%); SPLOST future impacti fees (64.42%) Current capital impact fees funds, held (100%); SPLOST future impacti fees (64.42%) Current capital impact fees budget; held (100%); SPLOST future impacti fees (64.42%) 918,405 918,405 IF; 6,122,700 6,122,700 IF; 450,000 918,405 6,122,700 7,491,105 Source:.
