City of Atlanta Street Cleanup in Local Districts - Grade: D+



by C. Henry Adams

First, I want to thank the Workers out in the field for the City of Atlanta - Department of Public Works. Your work is appreciated.   However, regarding the management, planning and removal of Winter Debris (Salt & Gravel) that has plague the streets for nearly a month in the 9th, 10th, and 11th District ;  I have nothing good to say at all.
Furthermore,  it is interesting to the say the less, that streets like Tribble Lane, Linkwood Road, Collier Drive , Peyton Road, Willis Mill Road and Venetian Drive to name a few; still have gravel and salt present.

Word is out that Atlanta is only addressing a 'Request List' now.   So if you see a street sweeper cleaning one street of many filthy streets within the same surrounding area, the other passages are not on the list.

I can only imagine the number of people that could get upset like I did when I heard this method of doing business.
It appears that some Elected Officials of the City of Atlanta don't really care about their Constituents until they (Constituents) start raising hell.
One way to boost the economy in an area and perhaps help lower the crime in the same location is to keep the live-work place clean.
Why are we still waiting for the City of Atlanta to take immediate action?
The grade of a D+ was given because something is being done.  So, what do you think?
