STOCKBRIDGE — The Stockbridge City Council has approved a $22 million bond issue to fund completion of the city’s amphitheater project as well as construct a new cultural arts center and initiate a master trail plan.
Council members voted Nov. 24 to issue the bonds to fund projects that could be covered under the city’s 2019 Special Purpose Local Option Sales Tax V proceeds. The city expects to receive more than $20.5 million in SPLOST V proceeds over the next five years.
