EXHIBIT B _ Budget Estimate.pdf

This is a Budget Estimate exhibit prepared for DeKalb County, Georgia, in support of the 2026-094 Candler Road-Flat Shoals Parkway Livable Centers Initiative (LCI) Master Plan Study Update. The project involves updating an existing master plan for an approximately 1,900-acre study area located in unincorporated Decatur, Georgia, serving an estimated population of 7,206 residents. The study area is primarily designated as Regional Center and Neighborhood Center within the DeKalb County Unified Plan and is bounded generally by Interstate 20 to the north, Columbia Drive to the east, the South River to the south, and Doolittle Creek to the west, with Interstate 285 traversing the corridor. The project supports the goals and objectives of the Atlanta Regional Commission (ARC) Sub-Element 602 CAS Livable Centers Initiative Investment Policy Studies program and requires a qualified consultant or firm to complete the master plan update.

The budget estimate document establishes the financial parameters for consultant services required to complete the master plan study update. This exhibit provides the cost framework and allocation methodology for the project deliverables and services needed to accomplish the study objectives. The budget information detailed in this exhibit serves as the basis for evaluating proposals and establishing contract compensation terms for the selected consultant or firm responsible for executing the Candler Road-Flat Shoals Parkway LCI Master Plan Study Update.
