A Look Back at Dunwoody's Recovery from the 1998 Tornado

An Editorial by the late Dick Williams in the Atlanta Journal Constitution April 12, 1999 https://www.bizjournals.com/atlanta/stories/1999/04/12/editorial4.html One doesn't have to listen to the Clark Howard program on WSB radio to hear that species of American known as The Whiners. It's enough just to follow the news or surf the cable box. (Click) In a nation of boundless hope, here's the Rev. Jesse Jackson urging us to keep hope alive. (Click) In a metro area that's projecting 1.8 million new jobs in 25 years, here's Mayor Bill Campbell of Atlanta proclaiming that every black person in town owes his or her living to affirmative discrimination. (Click) When disaster strikes, counselors are rushed to schools. (Click) "If you can't get help at ... seek help somewhere." The notions of individualism and of turning to family, church and school for support too often are obliterated by the culture of victimhood, or societal subgroups based on us a

Letter from DHA Board to Dunwoody City Council Regarding Code Compliance

October 2020 To: Dunwoody Mayor & City Council Re: Need for Improved Code Compliance At its March board meeting, the Dunwoody Homeowners Association held a discussion about opportunities for improved code enforcement. Several of our board members personally observed commercial areas with covered windows and gang tags.

Updated Statement on the Proposed Rezoning of 5308, 5318, and 5328 Roberts Drive

To: Dunwoody City Council Zoning Board of Appeals Re: RZ 20-02 Rezoning of 5308, 5318, and 5328 Roberts Drive The Board of Directors met virtually on Thursday, October 22 to discuss our position on the proposed rezoning. A quorum of the board voted unanimously to oppose the rezoning of these properties from R-100 to R-50. The DHA has stayed in contact with adjacent homeowners since our original position statement was issued and we felt it necessary to update our position. A rezoning that close, to allow 15 homes to be built, requires several variances to be feasible. These variances will result in the development imposing on existing neighborhoods and diminishing the owners’ quality of life and risks damage to the current homes themselves. A variance is requested that will increase the total impervious surface of the properties from 40% to 85%. We believe this change, if enacted will cause environmental damage to nearby neighborh
