    Decalb county is not taking the responsibility to pave an official county road I called "planning & design" they said we do not have a plan for this road & dekalb county "roads & drainage" said its not their responsibility but I spoke to Mr. Jim McKenny cell# 4042974583 I told him that the unpaved road is forming channels preventing us from driving down the street to reach our homes he promised to pour some curbs to control the water flow but he disappeared & never answer my calls anymore please come take a look at a COUNTY ROAD in the USA, thank you

    951 N. Indian Creek Drive Clarkston, GA - Clarkston

    Need assistance to get DeKalb County to repair fence & secure gate behind Clarkston Library on Indian Creek Drive. Vandals are coming through the gate & fence and entering the Clarkston Community Center….destroying vegetable gardens and other projects made by the local residents. This past week vandals destroyed a patch of carrots grown by some children!!

    The Center locks all gate access to the field during the evenings, weekends & holidays, however, until this fence is secured, the problem will persist. The Clarkston Chief of Police highly recommends “razor wire” in this area to prevent future destruction of the fence.

    If the department responsible for county property would like to meet with me to review and discuss, my email is sarawlins@bellsouth.net . Prompt attention to this matter would be greatly appreciated before the gardeners begin planting in early March.

    PS: once the fences are repaired, the community residents will place warning signs on the gate & fence to discourage entrance.

    Ashford Dunwoody Rd@Mt Vernon Rd Dunwoody, Georgia - Perimeter Traffic Operations Program

    People driving north on Ashford Dunwoody are continually turning left at the Mt. Vernon light in front of people trying to exit the Branches neighborhood. More recently they are becoming more aggressive with this illegal turn where three and four cars will turn left once the light turns, causing those driving straight out of the neighborhood to hit their brakes to avoid a collision with an illegal left turning vehicle that is not yielding to oncoming traffic. The Dunwoody police should monitor this intersection and issue tickets to decrease this behavior.

    1587 New St Ne Atlanta, GA 30307, USA - Edgewood

    New street is a narrow street that dead ends at fence. On the other side of the fence there is a cul-de-sac. New Street is in violation of the 2003 Fire Code section 503.2.5 because there is no way for a fire truck to turn around on the street. The city needs to use eminent domain to acquire the cul-de-sac.

  • Traffic
    1046 Fayetteville Rd Se Atlanta, GA 30316, USA - East Atlanta

    The intersection of Flat Shoals Rd and Fayetteville Road in East Atlanta is badly in need of repair. It is dangerous to turn or cross the intersection, as traffic moves so slowly through here.

  • Dwy_vill_pkwy_-_drain_grates_square
    1384 Dunwoody Village Pkwy Dunwoody, GA - Dunwoody

    Drain grates are parallel to the direction of travel and will cause bicycles tires to get stuck and cause accidents. The drain grate runs along the majority of the curb cut. Request the drain grates be replaced with perpendicular grates or another design. I understand that the Parkway will be reconstructed, but that is not scheduled to begin until July 5, 2013 and be complete sometime in mid-2014. Between now & July 2013, perhaps some reasonably priced safety enhancements can be retrofitted. We now have a weekly organized bike ride coming in & out of that parking lot. Also, the monthly community bike ride will alternate from this location as well. With the community bike ride, there will be many younger children and less experienced riders, less aware of watching for these hazards.

    Location: On the north side of Dunwoody Village Parkway, at the central curb cut entrance to El Azteca, Village Burger, Divine Events, Curves, etc.

  • Blocked_fire_hydrant_square
    1121 Milam Circle Clarkston, GA - Clarkston

    The owners of this property have blocked access to the fire hydrant with a fence. Also, people are parking illegally in front of hydrant. Need a sign to remind people to not block the hydrant in this area.

  • Trash
    3242-3252 Ashford Dunwoody Road Northeast Atlanta, GA - North Atlanta

    The area between Stratfield Drive and Humility Lane needs the sidewalk completed and the debris removed from the roadway. This is the only section of roadway that has an incomplete sidewalk. Kids, families, and runners / walkers have to dodge traffic and debris to get from neighborhood to neighborhood.

  • Narrow_path_square
    3784 E Ponce De Leon Ave Clarkston, GA - Clarkston

    The path on E Ponce de Leon from Milam Circle to I285 is extremely narrow. Naturally there is no sidewalk. For a year I have made numerous calls to 311 and Damen Johnson at Dekalb County Public Works without success. I am not requesting a sidewalk be installed, just grading to widen the dirt path to allow citizens a safe passage. By the way, I have confirmed that this road is the responsibility of DeKalb & not Georgia.

  • Pothole
    1457 Mt Vernon Rd Atlanta, GA - Dunwoody

    In the new bike lane on the south side of Mt. Vernon (eastbound direction), there is a pothole a several inches deep and in width (appears as if the top layer of new asphalt has simply "broken away"). It is located approximately 200 - 400 feet west of the Ashford-Dunwoody intersection.
