Alpharetta Launches Operation Zero Tolerance

The Alpharetta Department of Public Safety is launching operation Zero Tolerance for the holiday period. The ADPS reminds motorist to obey all traffic laws and use patience during the holiday period due to expected heavy traffic volume. The ADPS will be aggressively enforcing all traffic laws and issuing citations.


ADPS Director Gary George says “strict enforcement of our traffic laws directly leads to safer roadways for our citizens and visitors.” As part of the crackdown to ensure safe roadways, the Alpharetta Department of Public Safety will be holding DUI enforcement checkpoints at various locations during the holiday period.

A large multi-jurisdictional checkpoint involving all GA 400 northbound exit ramps from Mansell Road to Windward Parkway will take place on 1-2-2010 beginning at 11:00PM. Participating agencies include the Alpharetta Dept. of Public Safety, Milton Police Department, Roswell Police Department and the Forsyth County Sheriff’s Office. The purpose of this checkpoint is to enforce seatbelt usage and to identify and arrest persons who are driving under the influence.

Milton approves Deerfield Green plan

After multiple deferrals and a lot of work from builder Bowen Family Homes, city staff and concerned community members, City Council approved Dec. 7 a modified site plan for the Deerfield Green townhouse community at the corner of Webb and Morris Roads.


Bowen wanted the city to approve dozens of units with front entry garages instead of the rear-entry models approved by Fulton County in 2005.

A retaining wall on the property made it impossible to build the rear-entry units with enough space for residents to safely get into and out of their garages, company spokesman Corbitt Woods said.

However, city staff and community volunteers said that would change the look of the neighborhood to the detriment of the area. So the plan was sent back to the drawing board in November.

Community Development Director Tom Wilson said he recommended the new plan hammered out by everyone because it reflected community concerns and mitigated the visual effects.

“This does everything possible to screen those garages,” said Wilson.

As part of the plan, units 136 to 163 will have the front-entry garages. Of those, 18 will be set back 20 feet from the end of the sidewalk to ensure drivers can park entirely within their driveway and not hang over into the walking area. The rest will be set back 18 feet.
In addition, Bowen will plant landscaping near the homes to shield the front-entry models from passers-by.

The plan was approved 5-0, with councilwomen Karen Thurman and Tina D’Aversa absent.

“I think this was a good exercise in working together,” said Mayor Joe Lockwood.
