The United Peachtree Corners Civic Association donated $26,000 Tuesday to Peachtree Corners earmarked for a beautification project along Peachtree Parkway. The funds represent the remainder of contributions collected over an 11-year period when the Peachtree Parkway Improvement Project, a UPCCA committee, maintained the 17 medians on Peachtree Parkway from the split at Peachtree Industrial Boulevard all the way to the Chattahoochee River.
Until now volunteers’ efforts involved countless hours contacting businesses, collecting money, bidding out landscaping work and following up to ensure the work was done properly. Since Peachtree Corners took over public works last fall, the volunteers are at last able to turn over the task of maintaining the medians to the city.
