ALPHARETTA, Ga. — A computer technician called police June 14 after he found files he suspected contained child porn on a computer hard drive that a customer dropped off earlier. The technician, an employee at the Best Buy on North Point Drive, said that a customer had dropped off the computer hard drive at 2:30 p.m. that day to transfer data.

Man falls victim to Snapchat scam MILTON, Ga. — A college student is out over $5,000 after falling victim to a fraud through the Snapchat app. The victim, a student at the University of Mississippi, said he had multiple payments due when he was contacted through Snapchat by a person claiming she could get the man a few thousand dollars if he sent her his debit card. The woman gave her name and said she lived in Roswell. The student sent his card to the female who said she needed the information to add funds to his account. She agreed not take money from the account or use the card. The victim later saw two deposits made to his account from two checks from Top Golf totaling $2,873. Later that day, the man realized his account had been over drafted by more than $1,500 from three separate withdrawals. The victim’s parents paid the overdraft fee but came to police because they said the suspect was attempting to scam others. Using the suspect’s phone number, officers identified an 18-year old Roswell woman who matched the name and description of the person who contacted the victim. According to the police report, the woman has a pending case in

backup hard drive, the employee said that the system had alerted him to several files that had errors. The files were titled with sexual acts involving underage children, with one as young as 4 years old. Neither the employee nor police were able to view the files on the transfer computer to verify what they contained. Officers confiscated the hard drive.

Alpharetta for account fraud and writing fraudulent checks.

Company reports employee pocketed customers’ cash ROSWELL, Ga. — Roswell police met June 9 with representatives of Andretti’s Karting and Games on Alpharetta Highway after they were alerted to possible thefts. A representative told police that the company had found that an employee was keeping cash from customers by using a coupon code on the register that would carry a zero charge when cash was used in the transaction. The employee would then allegedly tell the customer what the charge would have normally been, give proper change and pocket the cash. When police started investigating, they found that another previous employee had used a similar strategy before being fired.

Man swindled of $4,200 through telephone scam ROSWELL, Ga. — A man reported June 20 that he had fallen victim to a phone scam after someone called him requesting $4,200 to keep his granddaughter out of jail. The man received a call from someone claiming to be an attorney at Fulton County Court named “Gerald.” The caller told the man that he needed to send $4,200 to keep his granddaughter out of jail after she was involved in a vehicle accident. The money would be used to keep the

granddaughter out of jail and to avoid a lawsuit, “Gerald” said. The man asked to speak to his granddaughter first before sending any money. He was connected with someone who sounded like his granddaughter and was convinced the call was authentic. After purchasing $4,200 worth of Sam’s Club gift cards and reading off the numbers to the caller, the caller contacted the man again and requested another $4,000. At this point, the man said he realized he had been scammed and called police.

Burglars take firearms in house burglary FORSYTH COUNTY, Ga. – A large gun safe full of firearms was missing recently after a home off Julian Farm Road was burglarized. A woman was staying at the home while the owner was away for the weekend. When she arrived, she noticed all the drawers were opened, papers all over the floor and jewelry on the bed upstairs. She sent a photo to the homeowner to ask if he left it this way. She said her husband came by to check on the house a week prior and nothing was out of place. A few days after that, he noticed bags by the door, but again didn’t think anything of it. When the woman got in contact with the homeowner, he said he kept a large gun safe full of firearms in his barn. She told deputies it was missing, but they don’t know how many or what kind of firearms were in the safe. Deputies were later notified of a burglary at the house next door.

Milton City Council approves ‘Matilda’s’ relocation Music venue greenlit for Birmingham Crossroads By JOE PARKER joe@appenmediagroup.com MILTON, Ga. — When the June 18 Milton City Council meeting began just after 6 p.m., the city fire marshal was posted in the lobby of City Hall. Some residents were turned away when the council chambers reached capacity. The overflow crowd had come to voice their stances on a potential move of a popular Alpharetta music venue to Milton. When the City Council rendered its decision some eight hours later, just 30 people remained. But for those who burned the midnight oil with the board wearing “I love and support Matilda’s” stickers, the ultimate result was cause for celebration. The Council voted 5-0 — with Councilwoman Laura Bentley recused — to approve a measure allowing “Matilda’s Under the Pines” to the Birmingham Crossroads district along Hickory Flat Road. The contentious issue was presented before a standing-room only crowd with over 200 public comment cards received by the city which stretched the meeting well beyond 2 a.m. The issue at hand was the applicant’s request to move the beloved open-air venue from Alpharetta, where it has been in operation for 15 years, and if it would be a fitting addition to the generally quiet and rural Birmingham Crossroads area. Matilda’s incorporates a “hen house” building that serves as a stage for amplified acoustic performances on the weekend where patrons can set up tables, chairs and bring their own food and drink. Dozens of residents and non-residents Joe Lockwood alike spoke in favor of Milton mayor the move, noting their love for the “low-key,” affordable and familyfriendly atmosphere Matilda’s provides. Patrons and some nearby residents said the venue would be a welcome cultural addition to the area and would prove a boon for positive growth in the rural sec-

The venue, which hosts amplified acoustic performances, has been in operation for 15 years in Alpharetta. tion of the city. However, a slight majority of residents, many of whom live near the site, argued the venue would be too loud, bring an abundance of added traffic and parking issues to the area and could pose dangers from people crossing the unlit street and potential drunk drivers leaving the BYOB venue. Opponents also stated that the nine variances that came along with the application showed that the intended use was not a proper fit for the site and it could set a precedent for future developers to stray from the city’s codes. Ultimately the City Council approved all nine variances, but stripped much of the leeway suggested by the Planning Commission last month. Council members elected to reduce the suggested 85 decibel limit to 75 decibels from the nearest property line. They also limited concerts to Friday and/or Saturday nights from May 1 through October 31 with a maximum of 30 events during that span. The Planning Commission

By the end of the first season, we will see how everything works. It will allow us to get feedback from staff and the community and make sure it’s all working as planned.”

suggested a proposed maximum of 300 attendees per event, but the Council reduced that number to 200. A measure was also approved to allow for two “special events” per year for up to 250 concert-goers with the city’s prior approval and the use of an off-duty police officer to direct traffic. Opponents cited two major issues that included a review process for the special-use permit and its specific ties to Matilda’s. Many nearby residents voiced concerns the variance to delete the special use-permit’s three-year renewal period would be regrettable if the venue proved to cause noise, traffic and other issues. The stipulation would require the city to review the possible impacts of the venue every 36 months to decide to renew or revoke the permit. Applicant and property owner Curtis Mills said if the city chose not to renew the permit after three years, he would be unable to recoup his investment, which includes installing bathroom facilities and the relocation of the stage. Councilman Matt Kunz suggested the city take up the issue six months from the start of the 2018 concert season to judge Matilda’s impacts to the nearby community. “That way we are going to know how the sound is working, we’re going to know how the relationships with the neighbors are going and we’re going to get them going in a gradual way to see if this can be built into something special,”

Kunz said. The council agreed and voted to delete the 36-month renewal period but will review the relocation at a work session this fall. “We felt this was very important based on the concerns of the community,” Mayor Joe Lockwood said. “By the end of the first season, we will see how everything works. It will allow us to get feedback from staff and the community and make sure it’s all working as planned.” With the property owner’s agreement, the council also greenlit a condition the special-use permit be limited specifically to Matilda’s operations. Lockwood said it was understandable that residents would have concerns but that the council did its part to properly tackle the issue. “The Council was open to the venue and ultimately came to the decision it would be a good fit,” Lockwood said. “But we also spent a long time going through the issues and concerns to address them to hopefully somewhere in the middle. Not everyone is going to be happy, but I hope the majority of folks understand we took addressing those issues seriously and came up with parameters to control them. Milton is a special and unique place and I’m excited because I believe this venue will add quality of life and character.” According to Mills, the venue could be operational in July.

Milton adopts Providence Park master plan City tailors vision to suit public input By JOE PARKER joe@appenmediagroup.com MILTON, Ga. —Milton now has a clear vision for the future of Providence Park after 10 months of consulting with residents and design professionals. The Milton City Council formally adopted a finalized master plan at its June 18 meeting. The plan will provide a roadmap for the city to provide improvements, add amenities and bring the park up to current standards over the coming years. Parks and Recreation Director Jim Cregge said he is “very pleased” with the result of the master planning process that began with public input last summer. He added that comments from residents were vital to shaping the outline. “We received a tremendous amount of citizen input,” Cregge said. “This is paid with taxpayers’ dollars, and we were looking to spend those dollars as wisely and frugally as possible. The wisest move for us was to tailor the plan according to what residents wanted.” The 42-acre park, first opened in

1971, was purchased from Fulton County in 2015. The site had lay dormant for over a decade following the discovery and cleanup of potentially hazardous materials dumped on the grounds. The city reopened the park in 2016 and has maintained it since but has yet to add amenities. That will change in over the next few years with the approval of the master plan. The city began a string of public input meetings for the future of the park last September and has tailored the master plan according to residents’ desires. “We put a lot of ideas in early to expand the box of options,” Cregge said. “There are lots of different things you can do with the park. We put a lot out there based on the input we received, as well as what I have seen in other parks. Then we presented those ideas and if it would work in Milton, we’d do it. And if it doesn’t work it Milton we don’t. It was important to represent the character of the city.” A concern raised by residents throughout the 10-month process was that developing the park would destroy its undisturbed charm. But Cregge said those uncertainties should be quelled

The decision to delete the amenities resulted from some residents calls they were too active a use for the passive park. The finalized plan does include the addition of structures and improvements throughout the park. Additional facilities include a 6,500-square foot nature center, a woodland camping area, a restroom building near the entrance, a fishing deck on the

The route will be 8-feet wide and will provide access to the nature center and camping area. A natural surface trail will run for 0.5 miles along the eastern portion of the property. The plan also calls for an elevated boardwalk over the lake and a pedestrian bridge linking the natural surface trail near a quarry overlook plaza. One amenity not included in the

How to identify a sick tree It’s easy to miss when a tree is growing sick.

The longer it takes to spot problems, the more likely the tree’s illness will become serious enough that it needs to be

removed. However, if you can catch the signs early and call for an arborist, it may be possible to treat the sickness or damage and save the tree. Keep an eye out for these common signs of trouble: • Look for wilting or oddly-colored leaves, either along one or two limbs or all over the tree. • Check for cracks appearing in primary limbs or even in the trunk of the tree. • Examine dead branches, which may simply need pruning, but which can also indicate that a tree is in poor health. • Watch for decaying or hollow spots, especially along the trunk and around the joints of the limbs. • Look for insect damage, such as chewed leaves, holes made by burrowing bugs, silk webs and nests, and dripping sap or honeydew.

Some 40 years ago, state Rep. A.J. “Mick” Spano delivered a prayer in the Colorado House, calling on the Almighty to help end to the 1976 legislative session. “Oh Lord,” Spano pat Fox prayed. “Help us to Editor pat@appenmediagroup.com adjourn, and when we have nothing to say, help us not to come to the microphone and say it.” It was a call to the Divine that should be in every writer’s catechism. The newspaper industry is in enough trouble without adding “verbosity” to its list of sins. Part of the job of a copy editor is to eliminate words that waste time. Readers are busy enough. We’re not talking Proust or Hemmingway here. This is not literature. I’ve long campaigned for the elimination of most adverbs. Words like “very” or “extremely” are not worth their keystrokes. They don’t add enough information to pay for the space they occupy in a sentence. Adjectives can be just as dangerous. True, skilled writers can use them to craft handsome narratives. But in the wrong hands, they can overpopulate sentences with agonizing detail. Consider what most wordsmiths regard as the greatest sentence ever written: “Jesus wept.” No adverbs. No adjectives. Two words that say more than most paragraphs. I’m not advocating for two-word sentences here, but there is something elegant about economy. This is not to say that words should be judged solely by their relevance.

Sometimes, a word can add value by its mere existence in a sentence. It can provide the keystone for a perfect cadence in a poem or narrative. By and large though, life is too short to put up with redundancy. Eliminate excess, I say. I can spot redundancy everywhere: in books, newspapers, in television programs – in my own work. I strive to eliminate redundancy every time I encounter it. True story: The other evening, my wife asked whether we needed to buy more life insurance. “One of us doesn’t,” I replied. That didn’t go over well. All the same, wouldn’t our lives be easier if we removed all the clutter? We can start simple, eliminating words we don’t need. Here are some examples: • New record – How often do we hear of athletes setting a “new record” in the 100-meter freestyle or the long jump? When one sets a record, it is inherently “new.” • Roach bug – I don’t hear this quite as often, but it still creeps into conversation from time to time. Unless I miss my guess, a roach is a bug. • Tuna fish – Oh, this is a favorite of mine, because there’s nothing I enjoyed more as a kid than a tuna fish sandwich. My mother made them with lettuce and tomato. The fish was already in the tuna. • Hot water heater – My plumber called me out on this one. It’s a “water heater.” When performing properly, it produces hot water. You can probably come up with others. They’re out there, wasting our time, cluttering our conversations. Mark them, and vow to eliminate them.

OPINION

The time for change is always I have moved eight times over the past four years. Prior to graduating high school, I had only lived three places in 18 years. All three of those places were in Franklin, Tenn., and two Carson Cook of those homes were Reporter carson@appenmediagroup.com in the same subdivision. In 2014, I started college at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga, only two hours from home. I lived in a different dorm or apartment, with a different set of roommates, each of the four years I was in school. In 2016, I interned with Walt Disney World, in Orlando. I packed my things into my car and moved 10 hours from home. Those 10 hours felt like a lot at the time. I only saw my family once during the six months of my internship. Some days were harder than others, like when I couldn’t give my dad a hug on Father’s Day, or when I couldn’t attend my sister’s high school graduation. But I could

still talk to them every day. Then, in the spring of 2017, I studied abroad in Belgium. I spent five months in a country where, prior to moving there, I did not know anybody. I barely even spoke the language. I couldn’t bring all my stuff, just what could fit in one large suitcase. Not only could my family not visit, but there was a seven hour time difference, making it difficult to find times to talk. It was difficult, being away from my friends and family, feeling like a stranger in a strange land. But it was also worth it. I got to see sights and visit cities I had dreamed of. I made new friends, tried new foods and learned a lot, about the world around me and about myself. It’s 2018. I’ve just moved to North Fulton County, Ga. Only five hours away from home. Only one hour time difference. I know to some of my peers, moving away from home as soon as they’ve graduated college seems intimidating. But for me, it’s pretty tame. North Fulton reminds me of where I grew up in several ways. Both places are suburbs of larger cities. Places that pride themselves on good schools and

Southern hospitality. I can eat at the same restaurants and expect the same weather. So I don’t have to contend with the culture shock I did when I moved to Belgium. When you pack up your life once every six months or so, you start to realize what things are really important. We accumulate a lot of junk in our lives. Every time I’ve moved I’ve thrown away, recycled and donated bags and bags of junk I’d collected. The desire to carry as few boxes as possible compelled me to be unsentimental, throwing away homemade cards, old school projects and knick-knacks from friends. But I never got rid of anything important, because what’s important isn’t the stuff. It’s the memories I’ve made and the people I care about. I think one of the things I will miss the most about being a student is that every year I had an opportunity to reinvent myself. Like clockwork, every August there would be new classes, new teachers and new peers. And for some students, like me, there are opportunities to study abroad or intern in new cities.

It felt freeing to know I could join new clubs or switch up my wardrobe. I could make new friends and set new goals for myself. It was an annual reminder to evaluate the kind of person I wanted to be. It’s the same reason we make New Year’s resolutions. Or why we turn our house upside down with spring cleaning. Human beings have the remarkable ability to change, to grow, to be multiple people over one lifetime. It’s been six months since New Year’s, and I’m willing to bet you haven’t kept up with all your resolutions, if you made them to begin with. No judgement here, I haven’t either. I haven’t read as many books as I would like, and I haven’t gone to the gym as often as I promised. But consider this your semi-annual reminder. Take stock of what’s important in your life. Call the friend you haven’t talked to in a while. Think about the kind of person you want to be and start making steps to be that person. You don’t have to move to a new country or even a new state to make a fresh start.

Applicant withdraws proposed Milton daycare By JOE PARKER joe@appenmediagroup.com MILTON, Ga. — Two weeks after a deferral by the City Council, an applicant has chosen to pull the plug on a proposed daycare facility along Green Road near Arnold Mill. The City Council approved the withdrawal of the special use permit at its June 18 meeting. The daycare has created a stir among nearby homeowners since it was first presented at a community zoning information meeting in March. The Planning Commission voted unanimously to recommend denial. Residents in the area argued the business, which would operate during peak traffic hours, would further gridlock Green Road. The thoroughfare is a high-traffic cut through from Crabapple Road to Arnold Mill and regularly backs up during the morning and afternoon rush hours. In its presentation, the city said the daycare would add 462 daily trips to the area. Though the intersection of Green Road and Arnold Mill was included in the 2016 SPLOST vote for improvements, currently no plans or timelines have been created to ease congestion. Transportation Engineer Sara Leaders said the site would require a turning lane if approved, but nearby residents continued to argue the addition would not mitigate the added traffic if the site was approved. The Planning Commission sided with residents in recommending denial on April 25, adding that the daycare was too intensive a use for the mostly residential area. The proposal included a request presented by Jared McKinnon of Kimley-

The applicant had agreed to selfimpose restrictions, including no bus service to the facility, special events would be staggered throughout the day, outdoor speakers would be at a low volume to not disturb nearby homes and an additional parking area would be created. City staff recommended the daycare be approved with conditions. The item was deferred at the May 21 City Council meeting at the applicant’s request.

Milton considers update to fireworks noise ordinance By JOE PARKER joe@appenmediagroup.com MILTON, Ga. — Milton is considering measures to strengthen its fireworks ordinance in the wake of new legislation passed by the 2018 Legislature. The bill allows municipalities to regulate fireworks based on the noise they produce. However, cities can no longer create ordinances specific to the use of fireworks. With the regulations tied to the noise ordinance, the use of consumer fireworks will be permitted at all times — with certain exceptions for locations and conditions such as drought — unless they cause a “loud and unreasonable noise.” This is defined by noise of a high volume and in duration or character that may disturb the comfort, health, peace, safety and quiet enjoyment or repose of one or more persons of ordinary sensibilities. Under the state bill, the city cannot enforce its fireworks-related noise ordinance on certain holidays, including from midnight to 1 a.m. on Jan. 1 and from 10 a.m. to 11:59 p.m. on the following days: • January 1 • The last Saturday and Sunday in May (Memorial Day weekend) • July 3-4 • The first Monday in September (Labor Day) • December 31 “In addition to our equestrian community, this ordinance will allow the city of Milton to better protect its vulnerable populations, both human and our other four-legged friends,” said City Manager Steve Krokoff. “It will provide our officers a tool to apply in situations in which the noise associated with fireworks rises to the level that reasonably disturbs the

comfort, health, peace, safety, et cetera, of our community members on almost every day of the year.” The new regulations will be up for possible adoption at the July 9 City Council meeting. Krokoff said it is important residents understand that the use of fireworks will be permitted, but the regulations allow the city to have greater control when a nuisance is created by their associated noise. “I think that the key take away here is that the city is not trying to prevent individuals from peacefully enjoying fireworks if they so choose,” Krokoff said. “There are a variety of consumer fireworks that create little to no noise and thus will never be the subject of regulation,” with exceptions for location and certain conditions, he added. “Additionally, if an individual or group of neighbors chooses to use consumer fireworks that do create noise, so long as it doesn’t reasonably disturb those around them, they will not be subject to regulation either,” he said. “This ordinance is designed to prevent the use of consumer fireworks from appreciably degrading the quality of life of our community and keeping our vulnerable population, human and animal, safe from the unintended consequences of the percussions associated with some consumer fireworks.” Under the city’s current ordinance, which went into effect last September, the use of consumer fireworks was only limited between 9:01 p.m. to 9:59 a.m. except on July 3-4 and Dec. 31-Jan. 1. Since its passage, the city has received 26 firework-related complaints. According to Communications Director Shannon Ferguson, many of the complaints were valid but several were received during the legally permitted times to use fireworks.

We hope by providing a resource and a free educational experience, businesses will look to the city when they need help. Sarah LaDart, Milton Economic Development Director 16 | Milton Herald | June 28, 2018

Milton to host second small business symposium this week Free event features educational workshops, expo for local businesses By JOE PARKER joe@appenmediagroup.com MILTON, Ga. — In an effort to foster relations with the city’s businesses and provide valuable resources, Milton is hosting its second small business symposium June 28. The free event, which runs from noon-6:30 p.m., features educational workshops and an expo for Milton-based businesses. The city partnered with the Crabapple Community Association, the Milton Business Alliance and the Greater North Fulton Chamber of Commerce for the event. Economic Development Director Sarah LaDart said the importance of the symposium is not only to provide valuable information to local business owners, it can also establish relationships between those businesses and the city. “We hope by providing a resource and a free educational experience, businesses will look to the city when they need help,” LaDart said. “We want people to get to know [city] staff and be comfortable with them so we can partner. When they have problems with traffic, utilities or a question about a tax bill, I’m here. By inviting people to City Hall, hopefully when they do have a random situation that arises they know they can reach out to us.” The city, she said, learned valuable lessons from its companies in the first symposium last summer. This year’s workshops will be more focused on spe-

Brandon Beach will speak at the symposium to provide updates on recently passed legislation and TSPLOST projects and their potential impacts on local businesses. Beach also serves as executive director of the North Fulton Community Improvement District. The breakout sessions include Adam Briggs of UPS discussing the #MeToo movement and its impact on small businesses, an active shooter response training from Milton Police, information on the Buxton Analytics Platform, cybersecurity discussions and how to effectively

use Instagram. “Most of the time, people charge for these type of seminars, but we are working to provide lunch for everybody while we all learn how to grow and do businesses better in Milton,” LaDart said. The seminars, which LaDart described as “strictly educational” and not a sales pitch, are open to the public but the Milton business expo is limited to companies licensed with the city. More than a dozen Milton firms have already committed to the expo, exceeding last year’s total. The showcase, which begins at 4:30 p.m., will highlight

what the Milton businesses community offers, LaDart said. “The cool thing about Milton is when you speak to residents they are always trying to use local businesses,” LaDart said. “For instance, if you need promotional materials, we have a company here providing that. People actively try to do businesses with other businesses in Milton. At the expo, we’ll have many of them all in the same room.” To register to attend or reserve a booth visit tinyurl.com/MiltonSBS2. The cost to register a booth is $30 and the company must be licensed in Milton.

Changing your business plan With the year halfway done, are you considering making adjustments to your business plan? Have you had some disappointments from some of the key initiatives you dick jones started in the beFounder & President Jones Simply Sales ginning of the year? Making adjustments to your business plan can help you improve results, take advantage of things that are working well, and deemphasize things that aren’t. A business plan typically includes strategies and tactics to profitably grow your small business. Sometimes you have a perfect strategy, but the tactics you are using to implement it are not producing the best results. Tweaking your tactics to better align with your strategy can help. In some cases, your strategy may be flawed. For example, you may have a strategy to penetrate a certain industry or specific prospects, and the overall approach just isn’t getting you any traction. Modifying your strategy to account for what you have learned will help improve your potential to be successful. Business plans are like “road maps” and if you hit a “detour” you need to be prepared to take a different road. There are many examples of companies who had a great product or service that just wasn’t selling; and when they adjusted their business plan, it sold like hot cakes. Periodically making adjustments to your business plan will not only help you be more successful; it is essential to continually making improvements in running your small business!

Small business owner gains reprieve for zoning mistake By PATRICK FOX pat@appenmediagroup.com ALPHARETTA, Ga. — It doesn’t come up often, but a small auto repair shop on Maxwell Road has been granted a variance to allow for a small building that extends within two feet of the property line. The unusual circumstances surrounding the June 18 City Council action is that the building, a small garage, is already built. Few cities guard their appearance as much as Alpharetta, and businesses are required to follow strict codes for building structures, including materials and signage. The business owner, David Kahn, appeared before the City Council requesting the variance after he was notified he had improperly constructed the building without a permit and that its placement violated the 15-foot setback required of structures in the area, which is zoned for light industrial. Members of the City Council said they were uncomfortable being placed in a position of granting “forgiveness” and would rather follow regular protocols for allowing permission before buildings are constructed. Such cases, though rare, are not

unprecedented in Alpharetta. The last time was back in 2015 when a home at 255 Clipper Bay Drive was constructed within the side building setback due to a surveying error, according to city staff. “I made an honest mistake,” Kahn told the City Council. Kahn added that he constructed the building a little over a year ago after having moved his small repair shop from Roswell to Alpharetta. He said he has been operating out of a two-car garage on Maxwell Road and needed the small shed, about 400 square feet, to store some of his equipment.

As part of the council action, Kahn had to provide the city with statements from neighboring property owners that they had no objections. Kahn must also obtain all proper permits and install landscaping to obscure the cinderblock structure. “I do think people make mistakes, and if they move here they don’t always realize our city is really steeped in codes, so we can keep the beauty of our area up,” Councilman Donald Mitchell said. “We don’t allow cinderblock buildings. We don’t allow butler buildings per se any longer in our code. Let’s just use

this as a lesson to every homeowner and business owner: before you build, call our Community Development Office, ask them what our restrictions are and what they need to do to comply with our codes.” The City Council was careful to state the variance should in no way be construed as a precedent that will allow others to build first, then seek relief. “This wouldn’t be a close call if any adjoining neighbor had objected,” Councilman John Hipes said. “As a shot across the bow to anyone who thinks this is a precedent, it is not because they would be operating at their own risk of building something, and if anybody objected as an adjoining neighbor, for me it wouldn’t be a close call.” Following the vote, Kahn said he was nervous going before the City Council, but is relieved to have the issue resolved. “I’m small time,” he said. “I don’t have the cash flow some of these other businesses have.” In the end, though, he said he was impressed with how he was treated. “I’ve got to say, I made some mistakes, but the City of Alpharetta has been nothing but professional with me, and they’re really working to stick with the small businesses.”

Skin myths Brought to you by Dr. Brent Taylor Premier Dermatology and MOHS surgery of Atlanta Distinguishing fact from fiction is key when it comes to health care related matters. Multiple misconceptions exist when it comes to our skin. Some myths likely don’t cause much harm – like the myth that 8 glasses of water Dr. Taylor is all that you need for healthy skin or that shaving makes hair growth thicker or that apple cider vinegar cures smallpox, leprosy and bubonic plague. But some myths bear repeating and correcting. Myth #1: Basal cells are just cosmetic. Some patients occasionally mention that they were told by a family member or even a health care worker that basal cell carcinomas are just cosmetic and that treating them is elective. This myth arose because basal cell carcinomas, the most common type of skin cancer, are sometimes slow growing and can occasionally smolder on for multiple years before they cause any significant damage. However, left untreated they can be disasters. Basal cells are locally destructive cancers that, when allowed to grow, can spread to other parts of the body. All too often, patients allow basal cells to grow unnecessarily large. Untreated, these cancers can cause significant morbidity. By the time it becomes clear that a basal cell is not just cosmetic, a large painful and draining sore can already have begun posing a threat to nearby structures like eyelids or ears, nerves, muscle or cartilage. Especially when caught early, basal cell carcinomas can often be treated without significant inconvenience. They are worth treating before they become a problem. Myth #2: Cold sores are caused by the sun. Misinformation exists about cold sores, and as a result cold sores often go untreated or undertreated. This myth arose because the sun does actually decrease the strength of the immune system in the skin. When someone gets a sunburn on the face, a cold sore break out is more likely to occur. Sunlight inactivates skin immunity, which is why sunlight can sometimes help people with diseases of excess immunity such as psoriasis. But preventing cold sore outbreaks requires a functioning immune system. Cold sores are caused by the herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV1). This virus is a cousin of the viruses that cause chicken pox and genital herpes. HSV1 lives in a person’s sensory nerves.

Accepting Patients Skin Cancer & Mohs Surgery • Medical Dermatology No cure currently exists, so the virus is with the individual for life, but very effective treatments are available to decrease outbreak severity and shorten the contagious period. A few of the real dangers of cold sores occur when infants and small children and those with compromised immune systems are exposed. These patients can develop infections in the brain, liver, lungs and other organs and even die from infection. Never allow someone with a cold sore to kiss a newborn. Myth #3: Changing my diet will cure my skin condition. This myth is grounded in intuition and likely historical reality. For centuries, vitamin deficiencies resulted in diseases like scurvy, which famously caused sailors low on vitamin C to lose their teeth. In the modern era, a balanced diet prevents most vitamin deficiencies, and rarely is someone’s diet responsible for or able to cure their skin disease. Indirect links exist between diet and skin health. For example, obesity results in numerous skin conditions and can disrupt circulation and result in skin problems of the lower legs. But there is little evidence to suggest that pizza causes acne or that chocolate or caffeine hurt one’s skin. True gluten allergies are also relatively rare as a cause of skin disease. Far more commonly, skin health is related to present or past sun exposure or to moisturization status. Eat a balanced diet and exercise and enjoy chocolate. Myth #4: The higher the SPF the longer I can stay in the sun. SPF is only one factor that determines the time before you burn. Whether the sunscreen is waterproof, whether you are swimming or sweating, how thickly the sunscreen is applied, whether the sunscreen is a durable physical blocker (like zinc) or a chemical blocker (which can effectively get “used up” by the sun’s rays), all are also important factors in whether a sunscreen maintains its high SPF number for a few minutes or several hours. Choose a sunscreen with a high SPF that you don’t mind putting on, that doesn’t cause acne (Non-comedogenic) and that matches your activity (waterproof or not). Then, Reapply. Reapply. Reapply.

Guide to local 4th of July celebrations By JULIA GROCHOWSKI julia@appenmediagroup.com NORTH ATLANTA — Cities across the northern suburbs of Atlanta are gearing up to celebrate the red, white and blue this Independence Day. Local cities have provided the following information about their 4th of July events:

Milton The City of Milton kicks off its celebration early with the Independence Day Walking Parade on June 30. The parade will run from 10:30 a.m.-noon and will make its way from Broadwell Pavilion, 12615 Broadwell Road, to the heart of Crabapple. This tradition, hosted by the city and Crabapple Community Association, welcomes wagons, carts, bikes and pets to walk or ride in the parade. The Milton Fire Department will head the procession. After the parade, there will be several prizes for the most spirited families, dogs and wagons. Games, popcorn, crafts, face painting and treats will be provided. For information, visit cityofmiltonga. us.

Alpharetta

Everyone is invited to celebrate at Wills Park, 1825 Old Milton Parkway, with festivities starting at 6 p.m. and the fireworks beginning at dusk. Three DJs will provide music throughout the park. Several food vendors will be on site with classics like barbeque, hot dogs and hamburgers, as well as pizza, tacos and dessert. The vendors will only accept cash. Alcohol, tobacco, charcoal grills and personal fireworks are prohibited. Pets may join but must be on a leash or in a crate. While some of the activities may be delayed or cancelled due to weather, the fireworks extravaganza is rain or shine. Parking is available near the Wacky World Playground. Old Milton Parkway between Ga. 9 and Wills Road will close when the parking lots are full. For more information, visit alpharetta.ga.us.

Johns Creek Johns Creek’s celebrations will begin a day early, July 3, at Newtown Park, 3150 Old Alabama Road. From 6-10 p.m., visitors can cel-

Plan: Continued from Page 6 master plan is the Children’s Charities all-inclusive playground which the nonprofit had planned to donate to the city. Though the city considered the idea of its inclusion, Cregge said Providence

Park is not the right fit. “The topography of Providence Park is not going to fit what they’re looking to do,” he said. “Most of the land is sloped. The area [in the park] that can be made available for the playground is not suitable for what they are doing.” Cregge said the charity is doing “phenomenal work” and it is important the city find the right location for the

playground. “Where that right spot is located is to be determined,” he said. “But I do believe a modest playground can be built at Providence Park, and moving forward we will ensure it has inclusivity for all.” Under the master plan, the development of the park would likely be accomplished in stages. Consultants have suggested the first phase include “stabilizing” the site, widening the entrance road, the addition of parking spaces and trail creation. The restroom, fishing deck and bridge over the wetlands would also be constructed. Consultants estimate the initial phase of the project could take four to

five years. The second phase, which includes adding the remaining structures, could be completed around four years later. Cregge said the next step for the city is to pinpoint its logical next moves. “Now that we have an approved plan we can get into that discussion,” he said. The director said he’s looking forward to the process. “On a personal level, I’m excited,” Cregge said. “I live a mile from the park and used to take my kids there in the 1990s and made great memories. I’m excited to have the park back up and running and available, and we hope to create great memories for future generations.”

Brnovich, Beer named collegiate baseball All-Americans Local grads shine at respective schools By JOE PARKER joe@appenmediagroup.com NORTH FULTON/FORSYTH COUNTY, Ga. — Two former high school baseball standouts continue to shine at the collegiate level and were recently named All-Americans. King’s Ridge graduate and Elon University pitcher Kyle Brnovich and Clemson University’s Seth Beer, a Lambert alum, were named 2018 Division I All-Americans by the American Baseball Coaches Association and Rawlings. Beer, a junior outfielder, was voted to the First Team while Brnovich, a sophomore, was named to the Second Team. Brnovich’s nomination comes after a standout sophomore season with the Phoenix where he compiled an 8-2 record with 15 starts and 105 innings pitched. For the right-hander, his impressive sophomore campaign came behind his acclimation to the collegiate level of play. “This season was a big settling-in year,” Brnovich said. “It’s kind of like high school in that once your sophomore season comes along you are used to the competition and work load. This season I was able to settle in and mature.” Brnovich said the Elon coaching staff was instrumental to his standout season and continued his development that began with his time at King’s Ridge.

“[The Elon coaches] are very good about sharing all their baseball knowledge with me and keeping me in line and as consistent as possible,” he said. “This season I was focused on being who I am as a pitcher and Beer to be as effective and efficient as possible. I had a really good coaching staff at King’s Ridge, too. They did a great job in helping me develop, and ever since then it’s been a building process.” The King’s Ridge alum notched 147 strikeouts, fourth in the nation in Division I, and recorded 10 or more strikeouts in eight starts. He was third in the nation in hits allowed per nine innings (4.89). His ERA of 1.71 was in the top-10 in the nation. Though he said he is honored to be named an All-American, Brnovich said his focus remains on the mound. “None of the accolades matter until my baseball career is done,” he said. “My focus is on now. I want to be able to fulfill my dream to play in the big leagues, and accolades don’t help me pitch better. They’re fun and exciting, but at the end of the day I just have to do what I have to do on the mound.” While Brnovich continues to chase his dreams of making the big show, his fellow All-American and local graduate has seen that dream come to fruition. Beer’s All-American accolade comes just

a few weeks after he was selected 28th overall by the Houston Astros in the MLB draft. He signed with the team on June 13. Beer started all 63 games at Clemson this season where he batted .301 and led the team Brnovich in slugging percentage (.642), home runs (22), walks (54), onbase percentage (.456) and was second in RBIs (54).

While at Lambert, Beer led the Longhorns to the 2014 GHSA state championship. The team was named the USA Today national champion. With Lambert, Beer was ranked the No. 2 overall player and top outfielder in the nation by Perfect Game and was the national sophomore player of the year by MaxPreps. Beer graduated from Lambert a semester early to attend Clemson in 2016, skipping what would have been his senior season with the Longhorns.
