City of Sandy Springs PLUS

It is 8 PM on Saturday evening and the weather has cooled off a bit. It would be wonderful if we could sit on our back deck and enjoy the weather but we cannot because of the moaning and groaning out of repair air conditioning units at Life Center Ministries. These AC units are a nuisance because they are so loud that they prevent us from the peaceable enjoyment of our property. That is the definition of a nuisance. This also violates Sandy Springs City Code. Yet, the City will not enforce the code in this situation for some reason. Just this year, his nuisance has been reported since March. It is now the end of August and I and my neighbors along Mt. Vernon Road and Ryefield Drive are still playgoers with this nuisance. Why will the City not enforce the code and stop this nuisance?

Strange, red van has been parked since this past weekend, so 5 or 6 days, parked against traffic and near a fire hydrant.

There is trash laying in the middle of the street again.

This property has been empty with boarded up windows for about a year. Someone reported the eyesore in January and the yard was cleaned up, but it has not been touched since and the weeds are awful again. Not only is it ugly,but those untended weeds are blowing into the surrounding properties. Home owners have a responsibility to maintain their property and it adversely impact the neighborhood. Please insure the yard is cleared of the overgrowth. I am also concerned about an empty, boarded up house attracting vagrants and vermin. The house is not inhabitable—shouldn’t it have to be torn down or refurbished in a reasonable timeframe? It is on the main thoroughfare to City Springs. Not a good look for our city. Thank you for your attention to this ongoing issue.

Dump trucks dumping loads at Rockhaven development site on Mitchell Rd at 8:00 in the evening. Rockhaven is not a good neighbor. They ignore working hours on a regular basis. On Tuesday morning at 7:00AM they started up their equipment and started work. Are they're any consequences for their continued failure to comply with your regulations. Do you people enforce any of your regulations.

Our neighbor has been performing construction on their basement for several months now and recently they Have their contractors working until after 9 PM every night. The contractors resume work around 5:30 in the morning which is when I leave for work. This is gotten out of hand. I live at 5971 Hilderbrand Dr. and it is my neighbor to my left (if you are facing my home) who is closest to Hammond Drive.

Construction noise outside of hours - running equipment beginning at 0600.
