Item: Atlanta (Fulton)
We heard from a reader this week about some troublesome trees.
“This is probably not the biggest deal in the world, unless you’re unfamiliar with Atlanta and want to find the Howell Mill exit,” a reader wrote.
The reader lives in East Cobb County and travels south on I-75 every day to midtown. He said the Howell Mill/Northside Drive exit signs are covered by trees overgrowth.
“I love trees, don’t get me wrong, but the ones there need a little haircut so visitors can see those exit signs,” the reader added.
We sent the issue to the DOT and will keep you updated.

Issue: Stone Mountain (DeKalb)
Ray Rosenberg has an issue with potholes. He said the situation is terrible on Silverhill Road in Stone Mountain.
“As you cross the speedbump you drop forcibly into these holes and feels as if you’ve hit the frame of the vehicle, even though you’ve slowed almost to a stop to cross the speedbump,” he wrote.
We sent the issue to the city and will let you know when it is fixed.

Update: Atlanta (Fulton)
Earlier this month, we told about Alan Kendall’s issue with a water leak on Northside Parkway. This week, we received an update on the leak from another resident.
“That leak on Northside Parkway has been going on for more than two years. They come out, dig, stand around and it still leaks. It’s very dangerous when it freezes,” wrote Nancy Brown.
We sent another nudge to the city to try to get it fixed before cold weather arrives.
