$2.2 million approved to repave Walt Stephens Rd and Mt. Zion Pkwy in Stockbridge!

The City of Stockbridge approved $2.2 million to repave Walt Stephens Rd and a short stretch of Mt. Zion Pkwy in Henry County with new Henry County District 2 Commissioner Neat Robinson scouring Henry County Splost and T-Splost accounts for additional funding to assist as well. Stockbridge District 1 Council Member Lakeisha Gantt who represent the area called on her colleagues to approve the funding for the long overdue repaving and Councilman Elton Alexander second the motion that passed unanimously. The measure passed after revealing available Transportation Splost or T-Splost 1% sales tax funds would be used to move the project forward in the short term after the competitive bidding process is completed. If all goes well the repaving could begin by the end of the year or first quarter of 2024.

Councilwoman Gantt discussed the poor condition of Walt Stephens Rd and Mt. Zion Pkwy that fell into disrepair under former Commissioner Bruce Holmes. Walt Stephens Rd and Mt. Zion Pkwy we’re Henry county maintained roads before being annexed into the city of Stockbridge January 1, 2023. Only 6 months as a city of Stockbridge road Walt Stephens Rd is being repaved. Councilwoman Gantt asked staff to look for available funding. Councilman Elton Alexander actually identified the funding in T-Splost calling the City Manager to look at using $2.8 million from the Reeves Creek Trail Extension. The Reeves Creek Trail Extension will now be completed by the Vista Group in their mixed use protected approved by the city on Flippen Rd at the expense of the developer.

It should be noted former Commissioner Bruce Holmes was in office 12 years and failed to maintain Walt Stephens Rd, Flippen Rd, Speer Rd, Spivey Rd, Hwy 138, and several other county maintained roadways in his former District in the city of Stockbridge. New District 2 Commissioner Neat Robinson will be looking for more funding for Walt Stephens Rd and Mt Zion Pkwy to ensure these projects are fully funded after years of being overlooked by the former Commissioner while he spent $60 million on county projects in the Fairview Rd area near his home including taking $2 million from the Flippen Rd T-Splost sidewalk project and using them to finish Village Park in Ellenwood. Flippen Rd still has no sidewalks as of today. Commissioner Neat Robinson knows Stockbridge and said she wants to work with all of District 2 providing funding equally throughout the district providing Stockbridge residents the support they need from the county that has been lacking for over a decade. We need partners like Commission Robinson and also Chairwoman Carlotta Harrell to maintain the areas the county is responsible for in the city of Stockbridge like Cochran Park!
