DeKalb school board donates land for water project

DeKalb County recently accepted a land donation from the county’s school district, to be used for a water booster pump station.

The .33 acres on Chamblee-Dunwoody Road, at the former site of Chamblee Middle School, will house the upgraded station. It is a replacement for a similar facility on North Shallowford Road.

There is no cost to the county or school district for the donation.
