Please tell me how this developer was allowed to cut into almost 2/3rds of the north bound lane of Old Alabama Road and claim it as his expending his entrance out into the roadway? It's understandable that the Silt Fence has been breached. This is a shoddy construction site that needs more attention by City of Roswell transportation and engineering.

Thank you for contacting the Engineering Division. Your request has been received and has been assigned to one of our Land development inspectors who will look into this issue.

This is terrible.

There goes the River. You can practically walk across the Chattahoochee anywhere from GA 400 Bridge south. I fish it all the time and have to lift my trolling motor up in order to pass over the sand bars. Wait until there's a real 3 or 4 day storm. The Chattahoochee will overflow it's banks for sure.

All issues were addressed on site.

OH NO IT ISN'T. NOT ALL ISSUES HAVE BEEN RESOLVED.

We, the Citizens of Roswell have a right to know how this Developer could cut unto 2/3 rds of Old Alabama road to expand rhe entrance out into the roadway. We suspect in order to maintain the 125 natural barrier along the back they came out into the road. Possesion is 9 points of the law. They assusmed if they cut into road, put in curbs etc City of Roswell would overlook it. Well we haven't. Who authorized the allocatjin of a roadway to this Developer? If it's an error on their part then make them take out the current curbs and move the entrance back on to their property. THIS ISDUE IS NOT RESOLVED. REPLY PLEASE. dpffitz@aol.com

I agree. The developer not only has eliminated almost an entire traffic Kane, he has also closed the sidewalk. This doesn't even close to resembling a traffic circle.

The Erosion Control failure was reported to the Engineering Division at 10:07 AM on 12/20/2017. The assigned City Land Development Inspector was onsite and in contact with the Developer at 10:30 AM to begin addressing the problem. The Developer moved a crew to the site and began repairs to the site and cleanup effort. A Stop Work Order was posted onsite so the only work permitted to occur at that time was correction and maintenance of erosion control measures. The Developer was issued a Notice of Violation (NOV) and Citation for the erosion control failure. In addition, the Developer was required to have the Engineer prepare revisions to the erosion control plans to address the failure. These plan changes were submitted to the City and reviewed by staff. Approval was given for the Developer to install the revised erosion control to address the failure. A follow-up site inspection is scheduled to occur 12/28/2017.

In addition to constructing the townhome development, the Developer also has approved permits and construction plans for the installation of a roundabout on Old Alabama Road at the entrance to the new development. The approved construction plans for the roundabout shift this section of the roadway slightly north (away from the new development) in order to meet the variety of roadway design criteria that is required for roundabout design. Once finished the full roadway width of four lanes (two in each direction) will be in place, along with bike lanes, sidewalks, and trails. City Engineer has reviewed the curb location in the field and it is installed as shown on the approved plans.
