Item: Atlanta (Fulton)
Joan Fountain has an issue with an intersection in Atlanta that involves sunken spots.
“I turn at the intersection of Glenwood and Hill street in Atlanta several times a month. There is a sunken spot on the west side of the intersection on Glenwood that has been there for quite a while that seems to be getting lower. The second or third car waiting in the turn lane has the uncomfortable experience of praying that they don’t sink into oblivion while waiting for the light to change! Do you think that you could get it repaired?” Fountain asked.
We sent the issue to the city and will let you know when it is fixed.

One of the many problems readers write to us about is water leaks.
Earlier this year, we told you about Gene Henry’s issue with a leak in the city of Atlanta.
“This (leak) is at 1565 Lazy River Lane. This massive leak has been going on for four days and (has had) zero effort by the city of Atlanta to repair. My engineer neighbor calculated that literally thousands of gallons are being wasted pouring down the street. We have called this in- and zero response. All of this while our water bills have doubled over the past year. This is beyond incompetent,” Henry wrote.
We have not heard back from the city, so we sent the issue for further information.
