Tailgate parties at the Frederick Brown Jr. Amphitheater

in Peachtree City may soon be allowed to include alcohol, if a

request by the Development Authority is approved by City

Council Thursday night.

Current rules prohibit concert-goers from drinking alcohol

outside of the amphitheater.

The new rule would allow alcohol consumption in the

amphitheater parking lot and the picnic tables at the amphitheater

complex two hours before events. Police would have to approve

the requests for each event and a security plan would be required.

The city development authority plans to bring a similar

request before council later to allow tailgating at special tennis

center events.

Also at the council meeting Thursday:

Council members will consider a resolution in support of

the Controlled Growth Manifesto that Mayor Bob Lenox authored

for the county's Fayette Unified Team to Use Resources Effectively

committee. The committee will finalize the document at its

quarterly meeting Friday, 8 a.m.-5 p.m. at the Peachtree Wyndham

Conference Center.

Council will consider a Line Creek Collector Road

development agreement. The city and Westside Village property

owners have been negotiating who will pay for and build Line

Creek Parkway. The city wants developers to build the road, then

donate the road and right of way to the city, as other developers

have done with other new roads.

Other agenda items include a revision to the buffer

standards for major thoroughfares, a public hearing on the Huddleston

Road Special Sewer District ordinance and intergovernmental

agreement, and a public hearing on a variance request by the Santolinas to

build a poolhouse/studio in their rear yard.

Appointments will also be made to the Commission on

Children and Youth and the airport authority.

The council meeting will begin at 7 p.m. in City Hall

council chambers.
