Fixed: Brookhaven (DeKalb)
Earlier this year, we told you about a reader’s concern over a sinkhole in Brookhaven off Ellijay Drive.
“There is a sinkhole at the intersection of Ellijay Drive and Etowah Drive in Brookhaven. It has been blocked off for weeks with construction tape. I have lost track of how many weeks it has been there. It is difficult to turn onto Ellijay or Etowah,” the reader wrote.
“The sinkhole in the city of Brookhaven was caused by a sewer line breach. As such, DeKalb County and Brookhaven have been working together to address this issue,” Brookhaven Communications Manager Burke Brennan.
We learned the issue has been resolved.

Item: Decatur (DeKalb)
Kay Morgan has an issue with an impassable street.
“I wanted to submit a request that you look into a situation that has been ongoing since around the first of May of this year. DeKalb County dug up the street in front of my neighbor’s house to repairs some kind of leak. It has been impassable for this entire time and there is rarely any workman on the site. I cannot get my deliveries as the road is completely blocked off and GPS does not know how to instruct them to go around the block and enter the other end of the street. The address is 2839 Orion Drive in Decatur,” Morgan wrote.
We sent the issue to DeKalb County, and officials said they would look into it.
