STOCKBRIDGE — Concerns surrounding the Tranquil Trail apartment development resurfaced Monday as Stockbridge City Council approved a list of requested changes aimed at addressing neighboring residents' complaints. Stockbridge City Council voted 4-1 to approve a list of requested changes it plans to negotiate with the project's developer. District 1 Council member LaKeisha Gantt made the motion, which was seconded by District 3 Council memer Kyle Berry. Gantt recognized the residents’ voice during the council’s discussion. “There have been numerous emails. We've had a town hall,” Gantt said. “We've had the community come out. They came out today, and they've had comment after comment and they made it very clear. They say we hear them, but we're not taking action on or that they want some type of action to take place.” The motion included six requests: — Add a fence along the rear property lines before residents move in. — Install double rows of evergreen trees at least 15-feet tall. — Shield outdoor lighting and direct it away from neighboring homes. — Limit construction to clearly defined daytime hours with enforceable penalties. — Move the dumpster to the front of the site, away from neighboring homes. — Require all future
