The three juveniles also confirmed the fourth juvenile’s statement that he was not involved. The homeowner said the juveniles had previously bullied her son but she did not want to press charges. The three juvenile’s agreed to clean up the mess they’d made to the home and the trash they left behind. They were released to their parents.

Developer seeks rezoning for 54 townhomes on Bethany Bend By JOE PARKER joe@appenmediagroup.com MILTON, Ga. — Bajun American Properties is requesting a rezoning and three concurrent variances to develop 54 townhomes on Bethany Bend north of Morris road and adjacent to the Forsyth County border. The developer presented the plan at a Nov. 27 Community Zoning Information Meeting at City Hall. The 8.46-acre site is currently designated for townhomes and AG-1. The developer is seeking townhome designation for the entire property. The three concurrent variances include an appeal to delete a 75-foot undisturbed buffer and 10-foot improvement setback to be replaced with a 20foot landscape buffer. Korey Jones of Bajun said the current undisturbed buffer is sparsely grown and the site plan calls for beefing up the barrier with dense vegetation. The developer is also seeking relief from two requirements under the Ga. 9 overlay district. Under the regulations, homes are required to use a majority of brick or natural stone on the exterior. Jones said deletion of this requirement will give the townhomes a “softer” appearance. As proposed, 17 townhomes would front Bethany Bend with the remaining homes accessible from two entrances along Bethany Bend. Jones said the smallest homes would

Parking would also be available in alleyways. A four-board equestrian fence would line the development along Bethany Bend, and Jones said there has not yet been a decision on whether the entrances will be gated. Ten landscaped common areas separate the 14 home clusters and an approximate 0.5-mile trail would run through a floodplain on the western portion of the property. Twelve nearby residents, including homeowners from the adjacent Hidden Forest subdivision, were in attendance at the meeting. Some citizens spoke in favor of the proposed appearance of the townhomes and the greenspaces, but raised concerns

Traffic was also a poignant issue for nearby residents who complained the site plan showed an entrance to the development through a roundabout that is unfinished. Completion of the roundabout has been delayed by AT&T which has yet to remove a telephone pole from the site, the applicant said.
The proposed plan will go before the Design Review Board on Dec. 4 and to the Planning Commission on Dec. 19. Barring delays or any deferrals, the City Council will vote on the request on Jan. 23. A previous rezoning for the site was unanimously approved by the City Council in 2008. That plan called for 98 age-restricted townhomes and a 140-car parking lot but was not developed.
Alpharetta, Milton begin process to create joint park space
Harrington Falls subdivision
Chantilly Dr
NORTH FULTON, Ga. — Alpharetta and Milton are combining efforts to create a passive park along Mayfield Road near the two cities’ border. The municipalities joined into an agreement last year to purchase just under 12-acres between Harrington Drive and Bethany Road. Under the purchase agreement, the property owners were permitted to live on the land for 12 months. That period has now expired and the property was vacated before the end of November. Each city paid $750,000 for two land lots, while a third 1.73-acre parcel was donated. Alpharetta Parks and Recreation Director Morgan Rodgers said Alpharetta will take the lead on securing the buildings currently on the property. No plans have been made for the structures once they are removed, he said. Alpharetta and Milton will develop the passive park in the coming months, Rodgers said.
The park will add to the expanding amount of greenspace in Milton. The city has used $5 million of its Greenspace Bond funds to purchase 140 acres that made up the former Milton Country Club in January. The city is also in the contractual stage to purchase 110 acres off Lackey Road. Milton also adopted its Providence Park Master Plan in June which will update the park’s trails and add amenities, including a permanent bathroom structure, fishing deck, woodland camping area and a 6,500-square-foot nature center. Alpharetta approved updates to its 120-acre Wills Park in October. The plan calls for improvements to the community center on the east side of the park, new outdoor basketball courts, an expansion of the dog park and improved bleachers at a playground near the ball parks. The Alpharetta City Council also reviewed plans to update the 50-acre equestrian portion of Wills Park earlier this week.

Forsyth officials learn about program promoting student behavioral health By KATHLEEN STURGEON kathleen@appenmediagroup.com FORSYTH COUNTY, Ga. — Fulton County officials are working with the school system to provide help for students experiencing mental health issue. Now, they’re sharing their experiences with their neighbors to the Ellis north. Fulton Commission Vice Chairman Bob Ellis spoke to representatives from the Forsyth County Mental Health Council about a program launched earlier this year called Text 4 Help. The initiative created an anonymous crisis texting line for teens reaching out for advice on issues that trouble them. “There are plenty of pressures facing students,” Ellis said. “Whether it’s online, drugs, alcohol or bullying, there are certainly families that appear to be great but have all kinds of challenges.” While academic counseling in schools is certainly adequate, Ellis said, issues related to behavioral health do not receive the same attention. Fulton Schools now offers the texting
service in 10 high schools, including at Alpharetta, Banneker, Cambridge, Chattahoochee, Johns Creek, Langston Hughes, Milton, Riverwood, Roswell and Tri-Cities. Both the county and the school district hope to expand the program into all 19 Fulton high schools, he said. “This partnership with our schools gives Fulton County the chance to connect kids experiencing challenging problems with those professionals uniquely trained to intervene,” Ellis said. “Kids may be in crises ranging from academic issues to substance abuse to depression, and Text 4 Help could be the lifeline they need.” Ellis introduced the initiative after hearing about the success of the program launched by Linking Efforts Against Drugs, a non-profit agency in the Chicago area. “This is for kids or teens in some level of crisis,” Ellis said. “It might be relatively small like a breakup or friends picking on them. Or it could be something they’re really struggling with that’s severe. The way the structure of the program works is it’s anonymous, so neither party knows who the other is. They can engage in the conversation, and a lot of
times that back and forth conversation is all the teen needs, and is the only person they feel comfortable communicating with.” Text 4 Help allows teens to reach a licensed clinician who will respond within three minutes, 24-hours a day, seven days a week. When a school establishes a program, it selects a unique ID code that students can identify with to accompany the number 1-844-823-5323. Texts are routed through a cloaking server to ensure anonymity. Forsyth County Commissioner Cindy Jones Mills said the county is trying to find where there are missing pieces for student services and how they can fill
those gaps. “We’re trying to be a community that’s all about wellness,” she said. “A lot of times, in a community like Forsyth County, people think there aren’t any broken places. We all know that’s not true. It’s a collaborate effort we’re trying to put forth.” The county implemented a drug awareness council years ago and realized not all people with a drug issue have a mental health issue, and vice versa. “A lot of times there are people with mental health issues who’ve never gone near drugs and want nothing to do with drugs,” Mills said. “We didn’t want to try to mix people with mental health always involved with drugs.”

Appen podcasts prove popular At the beginning of 2017, Appen Media launched Black Box, our investigative journalism arm. We dove head first into some pretty heavy issues, and the community seemed to embrace our deeper HANS APPEN dives into local isGeneral Manager hans@appenmediagroup.com sues. So, as we planned for 2018, I asked our team what we could do to improve. How could we harness the momentum we had created and do more? What we landed on was podcasting. Podcasts are audio files available through the internet to download or stream at the listener’s leisure. Think of them as recorded radio shows that you can pause, rewind, or skip to the end (for free). They are the world’s fastest growing form of media both for news and entertainment. I have been a podcast addict for a while now, but at the time most of our staff was at best a casual consumer (they’re all hooked now). We talked about the benefits of producing a podcast — low cost, userfriendly, unlimited potential — and decided that we would give it a shot. For our first show we landed on the name “Inside the Box” — a play off the name Black Box and the box-like studio we record in. We decided to again focus on local issues and people shaping our communities. To date the show has almost 10,000 downloads. What happened next though was both surprising and exciting. We started creating new, unrelated shows. Kathleen Sturgeon and AJ McNaugh-
ton launched “Lunch Break,” a comedy podcast focused on new foods and weird food facts. A local Realtor partnered with us to launch “Real Estate Success with Brian Patton” focused on everything you need to know about investing in real estate. Our sports reporter launched the “Overtime with Joe Parker” podcast to highlight local sports news, players and coaches. We hired a new reporter, and from day one she began work on “Pod With the Wind,” a podcast focused on all things newsworthy in Georgia’s film entertainment industry. Heck, you’ll be proud to know your little hometown newspaper launched a daily news podcast before The Washington Post launched their own. So what started as an idea to support our newsroom transformed into an entire expansion of Appen Media’s business model: the Appen Podcast Network currently comprised of 10 different shows. Last week we hired Daniel Milana to run the network, open a second studio, create additional value and ease of access for show advertisers, and incorporate video features. I am excited about the growth of our company, of course. It incorporates something new and exciting into our jobs, allows us to hire more people, and diversifies our revenue model. But more important than that is the continued connections it allows us to make with members of the community. We have people coming in and out of our studios all day, and it gives us the flexibility and the space to help tell their stories. And there is nothing more important that your local newspaper, and now podcast, can give you.

OPINION
The lost art of kindness and giving As the first voice most often heard on the phone line of a busy office, I’m quite frequently subjected to a myriad of calls from loyal readers, community leaders, curious prospective clients, and on Kimberly Tyson occasion, concerned Advertising Assistant kimberly@appenmediagroup.com citizens who just want to be heard. One of those calls from a concerned citizen, on a typical busy day, brought me some much-needed perspective on not just a business level, but a personal level as well. To protect those involved, I’ll just call that concerned citizen, who at the ripe young age of 90, has reminded me that my inherited kindness is not a weakness but in fact a badge of honor, Ms. Dot. But first, let me give you my personal background. Starting in my late teens, and like many at that age, I was always frustrated when others compared my personality to that of my mother’s. Perhaps my rebellious side always focused on the qualities of my mother that were the bane of my existence as a typical
Eat Plants 4 Life Aside from working at Appen Media Group, Kimberly Tyson is a freelance writer and vegan blogger. Read more from Kimberly at EatPlants4Life.com teen. Perhaps I thought that such innocently expressed comparisons meant that I was not my own independently unique person. Or perhaps because my mother chose a less career-driven path as a full-time wife and mother of four, my career-driven self, thought that it was a sign of weakness instead of a sign of strength that she chose to devote 100 percent of her time to us four kids. It wasn’t until I had children of my own that it dawned on me that being compared to the woman who is often spoken of as Ruth in the Bible because of her limitless kindness and devotion to others, is my badge of honor. Which brings me back to Ms. Dot, one of many loyal readers who at the age of 90, decided to call me out of the blue to express a concern in her quest to sell a dining room suite and her chipfree heirloom chinaware. As she speaks
her truth, Miss. Dot’s current health problems have caused her to transform her current dining room into her bedroom because she can’t get around like she used to. She is determined to stay in her home of over 30 years, independently and to avoid the nursing home scene altogether. Ms. Dot hasn’t called me once or even twice or for a few minutes at a time. She has called at least 5-6 times, and our conversations have been at least 15 minutes long. She’s not looking for much, other than the hope that her classified ad remains in print until it successfully generates a buyer. She simply wants to be heard. So, I don’t say much as I listen, other than the occasional, “yes, ma’am” or “I understand,” as she vents about her current living situation and her disappointment in the kindness of others. In her venting, she often takes a moment to thank me for being so kind. And this is for simply listening to her. She expresses that, “no one is hardly ever kind anymore” and that “no one has the time to listen.” In our conversations, she says that she is just trying to survive and get by on her own until she joins her husband who has been deceased for 17 years.
The Ms. Dots of the world remind us that people are just looking for kindness and validation — all of which can be provided if we simply listen. With each of her calls to me (she now asks for me by name), I am reminded of my teenage self who cringed at the thought of being just like my kind-hearted mom. But how can I even consider that comparison anything less than a badge of honor that I’ll continue to proudly wear, so long as it ensures that the Ms. Dots of the world are treated with the kindness and validation that they seek and deserve? I know that Miss Dot will one day stop calling. I know that that may cause me some concern as I realize that she is 90. I take solace in knowing that in my “listening” I also learned something from Ms. Dot that has made all of our long conversations on those busy days worth their weight in gold. In today’s climate of hate crimes and mean words, and as the very season that highlights the need for kindness and giving quickly approaches, I’ve learned from a sweet 90-year-old, that simply listening is sometimes enough, kindness is a badge of honor, and a little kindness goes a long way on both ends of the phone line.

This project has just been a labor of love. The entire project team has worked really hard on everything from design excellence to place-making to ensure that this is much more than a real estate project. Cheri Morris, president of Morris & Fellows 14 | Milton Herald | December 6, 2018
Alpharetta City Center earns regional recognition By PATRICK FOX pat@appenmediagroup.com ALPHARETTA, Ga. — Alpharetta’s City Center has been named recipient of the Atlanta Regional Commission’s Development of Excellence Award for ContextSensitive Town Center Development. The award, announced in November, recognizes the project for its attention to historic detail in its design. The project was launched in earnest nearly eight years ago when city officials announced plans to transform 26 acres in downtown Alpharetta into a walkable commercial and residential hub. Public funding for the project came by way of a $29 million bond referendum residents approved in 2011. Much of that public funding paid for construction of a new city hall and a nearby fourlevel parking deck. The Atlanta-Fulton County Library System added a new branch on space donated by the city in a land swap deal. The city sold the remaining acreage for private development under strict design guidelines. “The transformation is dramatic,” the ARC stated in announcing the award. “The City Center has replaced an assortment of empty lots and underused buildings with a unified building design that blends seamlessly with the surrounding historic downtown, including a network of bike-pedestrian paths that connect housing to schools, retail and other amenities.” The city partnered with a private development team to create a new downtown district that expanded the small existing historic walking district by six city blocks.
The award, announced in November, recognizes the project for its attention to historic detail in its design. Those six blocks now contain 10 freestanding restaurant buildings in 2.5 acres of parks and greenspace along Main Street, a 36,000 foot office building, now the headquarters of DataScan, 45,000 square feet of ground floor retail shops, 168 luxury apartments by a partnership of South City Partners and Morris & Fellows and 40 single family homes by Hedgewood Homes. Cheri Morris, president of Morris & Fellows, which headed the retail portion of the development, said the ARC award means a lot in the way of honoring the work that went into the project. “This project has just been a labor of love,” Morris said. “The entire project team has worked really hard on everything from design excellence to placemaking to ensure that this is much more than a real estate project.” Morris said it was important to the city and to the developers that they not drop a 21st century real estate project into the middle of downtown. That meant the buildings were fashioned with a sense of how Alpharetta’s downtown developed in its early days, she said. “Citizens want us to honor the past in these historic downtowns,” Morris said. Morris & Fellows has won numerous state, national and international
awards for its projects, including the Congress for the New Urbanism International Charter Award for downtown Woodstock. Morris said she is most proud of the effect City Center has had on Alpharetta. “Alpharetta City Center was intended to be a catalytic project for the good of downtown, but I have never in my career seen one of these projects I’ve done have such a large and immediate impact on the development patterns of the entire area,” she said. Up until now, area development has followed along Ga. 400, observing the usual pattern of classic urban sprawl, she said. That kind of development has put more cars on the road, isolated residents from the office and from the retail centers. City Center has changed that because two-thirds of all the homes being built in Alpharetta are within a half-mile walk of downtown, she added. “There were no development or redevelopment projects in downtown [Alpharetta] in the two decades before City Center,” Morris said. “There are now 31 active downtown projects. The sprawl projects that might have happened along a highway are now happening in the urban core. It’s a much healthier, much more human-centric way to live.”

Dunwoody slams brakes on multi-unit construction Getting a jump
Geoff smith
Assurance Financial, gsmith@lendtheway.com
With several large projects under construction, including the State Farm mega-campus near Perimeter Mall, Dunwoody seemed poised to cash in on an influx of demand from developers who are ready to build large-scale, mixed-
use projects there. Then last week, the mayor and City Council voted to put a halt to all of it. Citing concerns over safety codes regarding the wood construction of multi-story developments, the Dunwoody City Council voted to put a six-month moratorium on multi-unit building applications, permits and construction. According to Reporter Newspapers in Dunwoody, the action comes after a legislative session in which a bill was approved that prohibits local governments from prohibiting wood-framed building that otherwise meet state building and fire codes. The new bill undercuts Dunwoody’s existing ordinance requiring commer-
Emory Orthopedics adds two physicians JOHNS CREEK, Ga. —Two new physicians are now treating patients at Emory Orthopedics and Spine Center in Johns Creek. Dr. Oren Goltzer and Dr. Eli Garrard join a team of seven other physicians at the clinic, 6335 Hospital Parkway. Goltzer completed residency in orthopedic surgery at the University of Arizona. He continued orthopedic subspecialty training in hip and knee replacements with a fellowship in Adult Reconstruction at Emory University School of Medicine. Garrard completed an orthopedic
cial, office, apartment or condominium buildings more than three stories to be framed with noncombustible materials, such as metal or concrete. The moratorium clouds the progress of two significant projects that were moving through the system. The largest is GID’s High Street project. The Boston-based developer owns 42-acres at Perimeter Center Park and Hammond Drive where they have proposed a “mini-city” that is so big it was actually one of the sites submitted for Amazon HQ2. It includes a 12-story office building, a 30-story residential tower and five other residential buildings ranging from 7 to 12 stories. GID had filed for a land disturbance permit earlier this year and the company’s attorneys were at the council meeting and confronted the mayor after it was over. The other project is the 20-acre mixed-use development in Perimeter Center that includes 500,000 square feet of office space, 12,000 square feet of retail and 900 condominiums. Dunwoody Mayor Denis Shortal said the bill was “maybe a small part” of the council’s decision. He said the city had been working
with fire marshals for months reviewing their building codes and this moratorium will give them time to breathe. Metro Atlanta has been awash in new office development over the last several years. Major developments in the works right now include four new office buildings in Midtown that were being built on spec, and include a 31-story office tower, a 10-story office tower and almost 1.5 million square feet in other office developments. Thyussenkrupp Elevator Americas will soon build its North American Headquarters in The Battery next to the Braves Suntrust Park, and Avalon is working on its second office tower.

gan their studies, a 9 percent increase in enrollment over a year ago. Dr. Glen Cannon, president of Gwinnett Tech, attributes this surge in enrollment to a few key factors such as focusing on academic programs designed to feed high demand careers, increasing awareness about programs and support services for veterans, expanding HOPE Career Grant offerings and an increase in students from high school dual enrollment programs. The college now offers more than 140 different associate degrees, diploma and certificate programs to meet the ever-changing demands of today’s job market.

North Atlanta Flooring Trends for 2019 When it comes to flooring, most people want something that is stylish and practical…and not something that is too trendy and may fade out in a few years. Flooring is the foundation for your home decor, and you don’t want to have to replace it every few years. Remodeling Expo Center, in Roswell, is a market leader in flooring for North Atlanta and they see the trends that are on the horizon. John Hogan, owner of Remodeling Expo Center has his fingers on the pulse of what will be the Trends for floors in 2019 and beyond: Trend #1. Hardwood…almost everywhere. Dark hardwood flooring. Yes, hardwood continues to grow and it is the preferred surface in most rooms. In fact, many homeowners are converting their kitchen floors and entryways (as well as powder rooms to hardwood floors. Here’s what’s trending with hardwood flooring. Cool colors – dark browns, gray, white washes, wide planks and matte and satin finishes. Trend #2. Porcelain tile that looks like wood. As further evidence of the trend and preference towards hardwood flooring, it’s super interesting that now we have more and more alternative products that mimic the look (and sometimes the feel) of hardwood flooring. Tile wood-look planks are often used in areas that may have water or moisture (e.g. kitchens, bathrooms, basements) and on top of concrete sub-floors where it may be difficult or inappropriate to install solid hardwood flooring. These products have been on the rise because they look like hardwood and they are waterproof at the same time. Cooler colors such as whites, grays, espressos are most popular.
Trend #3. Engineered Vinyl Planks/ Luxury Vinyl that looks like wood. This wins the gold star for being the breakout trend for the year. This new category began 5 or 6 years ago and it’s been growing and breaking records each year. Early adopters loved it because it looks and feels so real…and because it’s WATERPROOF. It also has a cork underlayment for some extra cushioning and insulation. The technology has gotten so good that it can replicate the look of real wood on to the surfaces. For an even more authentic look and feel, many have embossed grainy textures and distressed styles. It looks and feels amazing, and it’s a floating floor which means that it can go on top of virtually any type of surface, including tile, as long as the surface is flat and level. Trend #4. Cool Toned Colors. Cool colors are in and warm colors are out. This seems to be true both for flooring and paint colors (and yes, the two go hand in hand). Cool color tones include grays, blues, greens, etc. and Warm color tones include yellow, oranges and reds (think colors of the sun). 2019 will see more of: Dark browns (without traces of red or yellow undertones), grays, concrete and industrial looks for tiles (and counter tops), grays over beiges for carpets and walls, and bleached and blanched colors – ashy white washed looks. The Reverse Trends: A. Bamboo – Not durable. Scratches and dents easily. Doesn’t hold up to water, B. Parquet – Ultra dated. Separates over time. Looks sloppy and makes space look smaller, C. Multi-width planks – Not practical as they will date your home and D. Wide grout lines – Very dated. Grout gets dirty and is more likely to crack with wider grout lines. Remodeling Expo Center has onstaff designers to help you to navigate through the maze of trends, colors and integration with all the elements in your home. Remodeling Expo Center, RemodelingExpo.com, 404 910-3969, 48 King Street in Roswell, GA, open all week except Sundays.

Composite wood, rot resistant, exterior shutters for residential and commercial
See us on the web at www.Dupbel.com
Exterior Shutters plays an important part in the overall look and feel of your home. Let’s explore some of the popular trends we see for 2018. Simplicity: Try using simple shutters for a pure, uncluttered effect to allow other beautiful features on the outside of your home to shine. It is in line with minimalism, where you incorporate clean, refreshing looks, while adding a nice touch to your decor. To follow this trend, use shutters with sharp lines, minimal details and neutral colors. Here we will propose something like a flat panel shutter, and/ or a shutter with one large single panel, or even a board and batten style with no battens (horizontal pieces). Lighten up: Color plays a big role in the overall appearance of your home, and while exterior shutters are typically dark colored, we’ve seen an uptick in lighter colored shutters. This works especially well when trying to modernize the look of an older building. Light colored walls, combined with shutters in a slightly darker hue seems to be the norm. Whites and greys works very well and is a trend that will be with us for a while. Stick with the basics: Exterior shutters should never overpower the look of your house and not all homes lend itself to the exotic. There’s nothing wrong with some traditional Raised Panel style shutters or even Louvered shutters to give a traditional, formal house a neat and tidy look. Board and Batten shutters works well on a
house with a mix of exterior surfaces (brick and stone, or siding and shingles). For Raised Panel style shutters, make sure the panels mimic the windows, for Louvers you can try a wider slat, and with Board and Batten shutters we see a trend to use more, but narrower Boards (vertical pieces). Add flair and personality: Another subtle way of giving you home a one-of-a-kind appearance is to add custom cutouts to your shutters. Let your home’s personality shine with just about any shape you can imagine, from stars and crescent moons to palm trees and hearts. Go bold and traditional with a full cutout, or subtle and interesting with only a small relief cut on the outside corner. This obviously only works on paneled or Board and Batten style shutters. The exterior of your home is the first impression for people coming up to your house. Shutters play a crucial role in making or breaking that first impression. It makes sense to ensure you incorporate the shutters to form a pleasant and unified appearance. Dupbel Millworks Inc. manufactures exteriors shutters using only weather resistant materials. Our core business is shutters made from a composite wood material that is rot, insect and weather resistant. We manufacture a series of shutters styles and are fully equipped to help you design the specific look you desire, and every shutter is custom made based on your house, windows and design.

Five staging mistakes that make or break a home sale Brought to you by –BILL RAWLINGS Senior Vice President & Managing Broker, North Atlanta Office Atlanta Fine Homes Sotheby’s International Realty Once you decide to list your home, you might think your primary objective is to make it look appealing to prospective buyers. However, that’s actually not the right goal. Your goal isn’t simply to impress people with your Rawlings home — it’s to help them see it as their home. This is where effective home staging comes in. Let’s look at five specific staging mistakes you should avoid like the plague.
Failing to clean, declutter and touch up This point seems glaringly obvious, but you would be surprised at how many sellers cut corners on basic cleaning and spruce-up tasks. Cluttered spaces create an instant bad impression and make people feel like they have intruded on your “lived-in” home. Dirty windows, “dust bunnies” on the floor and stained walls — these all convey to a buyer that you don’t care enough to clean or to impress them. And if you don’t care, why should they?
Too much décor Don’t confuse showing your home with turning it into a show home. Leaning too heavily toward a decorating style like modern, industrial or country French will limit your audience. Likewise, filling your space with eye-popping details might land it a photo shoot in House Beautiful, but it will not bring you closer to selling because you are making it difficult for buyers to see their own furniture in the space. Remember, you are not trying to draw attention to the décor but to the home itself. Don’t make the decoration a distraction.
Over-personalizing Over-personalizing your home can take many forms. It can be an overabundance of family photos, a stack of mail on the desk, repurposing a spare room for an exercise or storage space, a shade of paint only you and a handful other people would appreciate … the list goes on. Anything you leave out that identi-

Effective staging usually means removing a few unnecessary furniture pieces, but you can also err in the direction of leaving too few pieces. A single table and chair in an otherwise vacant room looks gratuitous – not lived-in. You might think you are creating the illusion of more space, but all you are doing is making it look barren and stark. Instead, try to create open walkways and a sense of flow through the home, keeping the furnishings tasteful yet unassuming.

fies the home as distinctly yours makes it more difficult for a buyer to see it as distinctly theirs.
Overdoing “neutral” Yes, it is possible to “over-neutralize” a space. We are taught to avoid bold color schemes and dramatic details when staging, and that point is valid — but if you make everything too white, beige or light grey, you risk making the space invisible. Keep it mostly neutral, but don’t be afraid to add an accent here and there just to keep the eye interested.
Making it too sparse

North Fulton Hospital adds two new lifesaving rooms By NIK GLATT interns@appenmediagroup.com ROSWELL, Ga. — Wellstar North Fulton Hospital is expanding its capacity to treat heart patients with the addition of two catheterization laboratories. The new labs, which come at an estimated cost of $6 million, were added to give the hospital’s Cardiovascular Department extra room so patients will not need to be diverted to other hospitals during critical times. If one laboratory is inoperative because of equipment upgrades or repairs, there are two alternative rooms available. “There is a small time frame from where someone starts to have a heart attack to when you need to have that blockage opened and blood reach the heart, that’s only 90 minutes,” said Jeffery Penton, director of Cardiovascular Services for North Fulton Hospital. “So if there’s another hospital that’s going to take 20 more minutes to get to, that’s 20 minutes of heart damage they’re having instead of coming to us.” Another factor behind the addition is the hospital’s move to add electrophysiology to its Cardiovascular Department. Electrophysiology allows staff to perform
ablations, using radio frequencies that burn the heart muscle area in order to put the heart back into a normal rhythm. North Fulton Hospital opened the first lab Nov. 1 and is moving the old one from the first floor to the third floor. “The second lab will come up, have upgrades to reduce radiation, allow additional technology and allow the equipment for the electrophysiology to be placed in it,” Penton said. The relocation is in the process of being moved and is expected to be finished so that both rooms will be operational Dec. 10. Each laboratory will have four new advancements in technology to make procedures more effective and efficient. The hospital invested in a new device that will provide software and hardware upgrades to the radiation machines to reduce the amount of radiation patients, physicians and staff are exposed to. The new machine also adds cardiac swing which reduces the number of images required from eight to two and also reduces the amount of contrast injected into the body from 80 milliliters down to 12-15 milliliters. “The less contrast that you have

The new Philips scanner rotates in a “C” or a figure eight shape around the patient and catches the view in one shot. to put into the patient’s body, the less chances of allergic reaction and less
chances of kidney issues from trying to filter out the contrast,” Penton said. In addition, the department invested in equipment called SyncVision, an ultrasound device that measures arterial blockages so physicians can determine how long and wide a stent must be. “Without that technology you kind of go by the eye of the physician, eyeballing what it looks like,” Penton said. “There are times when you look at something and think it’s a certain length and you miss it or you get too long of a length.” The labs will also be equipped with robotics technology that allows physicians and technicians to perform procedures on patients while standing clear of possible radiation exposure. The robotic arm provides more precision than human hands, allowing wires to be inserted into arteries more seamlessly. It also senses more accurately how much pressure is being placed on the wires. Overall, the robotics equipment reduces the time a patient is on the table and is exposed to radiation. Linda Perez-Campanucci, North Fulton Hospital senior marketing strategist, said the hospital is one of 50 sites in the world with this specific technology, and the only one in the metro area.

Milton Tour of Homes raises funds for local nonprofits BY JOE PARKER joe@appenmediagroup.com MILTON, Ga. — Three local nonprofits were recently presented with monetary donations raised during Southern Magnolia Charities’ third annual Milton Tour of Homes. The event raised $42,000 for Dream Weavers of Georgia, Milton First Responders Foundation and Canine Assistants. Each nonprofit was presented with a check for $14,000 that will go to fund their organizations and initiatives. Southern Magnolia Charities chose the three recipients earlier this year. President Marsha Spear said the organizations “illustrate the important work that charities do to support disparate groups in need in our area.” Dream Weavers of Georgia creates opportunities and provides resources to promote educational initiatives and benefit the social well-being of Georgia’s foster children. President Fred Moeller said the $14,000 grant “will help foster parents to provide some extracurricular activities to help their foster children build confidence and enrich their lives.” Founded in 2015, Milton First Responders Foundation provides financial assistance for first responders injured or killed in the line of duty or enduring a family hardship. The foundation also
purchases supplementary or unbudgeted equipment and training equipment for Milton’s first responders. Treasurer Robyn Pinto emphasized how the community’s first responders support local citizens every day, often at great personal risk and sacrifice. Milton-based Canine Assistants is a nonprofit that has partnered with Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta for dog therapy services and provides service dogs for children and adults who have physical disabilities, seizure conditions or other special needs. Canine Assistants volunteer Karen Edge, accompanied by service dog Dorian, noted the important role service dogs play for patients with mobility issues, epilepsy and Type 1 diabetes. Each service dog placed by Canine Assistants costs $31,000 to teach, and the organization provides all dogs free of charge. The funds were raised by the Tour of Homes event which features some of Milton’s most beautiful properties and residences. The sold out event featured homes throughout the city with buses chartering guests to the carefully selected residences. A VIP fundraising event with live music, food and silent auction was also held. For more information about the Tour of Homes, visit miltongatourofhomes. com.

Milton earns historic trip to state championship By JOE PARKER joe@appenmediagroup.com ALPHARETTA, Ga. — Milton’s 69-year wait is over. The Eagles have earned a trip to the state championship. Milton put together another impressive playoff performance Friday night to down perennial powerhouse Lowndes at Denmark High School to earn their firstever berth in the state finals. It was a win that left head coach Adam Clack — typically not short on words —speechless. “I don’t know if you can put this feeling into words,” he said following the Eagles’ 28-17 win. Milton opened a 21-0 lead in the first half before Lowndes began chipping away and cut the margin to 21-17 in the fourth quarter. However, the Eagles’ defense matched their dominant first half performance in the final period, while the offense added a needed touchdown to seal the win. “Early on we were hitting on all cylinders and jumped out to a great lead,” Clack said. “We knew Lowndes was going to have something to say for it, and I’m just so proud of my guys for holding the rope and not panicking, just like they’ve done all year.” Milton’s defense stymied Lowndes’ run-heavy offense and held the Vikings to three first downs in the first half and 117 total yards, 50 coming on a touchdown rush late in the second quarter. With their defense reeling, Milton’s offense built its three-score lead. Jordan Yates rushed for a 6-yard touchdown midway through the first quarter and extended the lead with a 49yard touchdown pass to Dylan Leonard on the Eagles’ next drive. After forcing a Lowndes three-andout, Milton running back Josh Edwards
had four-straight carries on the Eagles’ next drive, capped off by a 1-yard touchdown run. As Clack anticipated, Lowndes did respond and began the third quarter by intercepting Yates on a pass and scoring a rushing touchdown five plays later. Both teams exchanged punts throughout the remainder of the period, but Lowndes was set up with a firstand-goal to start the fourth. However, Milton’s mantra of “owning the red zone” showed true with the Eagles holding Lowndes to a 27-yard field goal. With new life breathed into the Vikings’ sideline, Milton put together a crucial, eight-play, 80-yard drive with Yates connecting with Holden Shaw for an 11-yard touchdown for the final score of the game. Linebacker Jordan Davis, who had a standout performance on the night shutting down Lowndes rushing lanes and accounting for four tackles-for-loss, quelled Lowndes’ comeback hopes with an interception with six minutes remaining. Lowndes was held to 194 total yards and went 3-15 on third down. “Our defense did what they have done all playoffs,” Clack said. “They fly around, make adjustments before the play, find their gaps, and if something happens to bounce, we have five or six guys hunting it down. They’re playing lights out.” Milton’s offense was led by 182 yards passing from Yates who completed 75 percent of his passes. Dylan Leonard had two receptions for 79 yards, including a 30-yard reception on third down in Milton’s final scoring drive. Joseph Charleston had four receptions for 53 yards. The performance showed the 2018 Eagles have been undaunted by being an on-paper underdog or playing in un-

and day out, and great support from our administration. We believed we could be in this situation and we have a great opportunity in front of us.” The Eagles will vie for their first state title against Colquitt County in the Class 7A state championship game at 7 p.m. on Dec. 12 at Mercedes-Benz Stadium.
Blessed Trinity 51, Troup 35:
Blessed Trinity downs Troup to earn shot to defend state title By JOE PARKER joe@appenmediagroup.com
ROSWELL, Ga. — Blessed Trinity earned its first state title a year ago. Now, the mission is to defend it. The Titans continued their undefeated campaign and will head to the Class 4A state championship Dec. 12 after downing Troup, 51-35, in the semifinals Friday night at home. BT’s win came by limiting the success of perhaps the state’s most explosive quarterback, Troup’s Kobe Hudson.
Hudson entered the contest with over 3,100 yards passing, 1,200 yards rushing and 45 total touchdowns. “Hudson is just so explosive and puts a lot of strain on the defense,” Blessed Trinity head coach Tim McFarlin said. “We put a lot of pressure on him, but he is so good at evading pressure. And once he escapes he is a threat to run or pass. It really puts a lot
of pressure on our defensive backs in coverage, but I credit our backfield, they played as well as they could have played.” Hudson accounted for nearly all of Troup’s offensive success with 438 total yards and four touchdowns on the night. With Hudson leading the Tigers, McFarlin said he knew his squad would have to score a lot of points. While BT surrendered a season-
high 35 points, they also posted a season-high 51 points on offense. The Titans’ scoring started early. Carson Harof returned the opening kickoff 83-yards to the Troup 8-yard line to set up a touchdown rush from quarterback Jake Smith. Steele Chambers, who had another stellar performance with 240 yards rushing, added to BT’s lead with a 38yard touchdown midway through the first quarter. After Hudson’s 20-yard

Emily Murray and her horse Auke wins two gold medals and one silver medal at the annual Special Olympics State Horse Show.
Forsyth teen wins gold at state Special Olympics By NIK GLATT interns@appenmediagroup.com FORSYTH COUNTY, Ga. — Local athlete Emily Murray, 15, took home two gold medals and a silver medal after competing in her third Special Olympics State Horse Show. The event took place at the Chicopee Agriculture Center in Gainesville from Oct. 19 to 21. The gold medals were for showmanship and English equitation, and the silver medal was for dressage. To compete in the Special Olympics each year, Murray needs to raise $1,000 for entrance and horse fees. This year she volunteered at Northside Hospital’s Movies in the Park events during the summer selling popcorn and candy to raise the money. Murray has already been honored twice by Gov. Nathan Deal as a top equestrian rider in the state. In addition to meeting the governor, she visited the Capitol where she observed the Senate and attended a banquet with the other top athletes in the Special Olympics. Murray is on the Autism spectrum and struggles with social interaction and coordination. The most common therapies for teens on the spectrum are speech, occupation or cognitive therapy.
“Emily was not making much progress with these therapies,” Emily’s dad Paul Murray said. The family noted Murray’s affinity for animals, and after research and a recommendation from a friend, they pursued therapeutic horseback riding. This type of therapy contributes positively to the cognitive, physical, emotional and social well-being of the individual with special needs. Each week, Murray trains at Iron Horse Therapy in Milton and has developed a bond with the horses. A session typically consists of Murray putting the equipment on the horse, a 30-minute lesson and taking care of the horse after the session. When it gets closer to the Special Olympics, Murray trains twice a week to practice the different categories she will be judged in. “Emily has flourished in the equine therapy program,” Paul said. “Not only is my daughter learning the skill of horseback riding, but she has also grown with her confidence, social skills and has opened up in her personality in the short three years she has been riding at Iron Horse.” When Murray isn’t riding, she volunteers at Zoo Atlanta and the North Georgia Zoo. She also spends time with her 11 birds, cat, dog, gerbil and chameleon.

Taylor Road Middle teacher saves choking student By CARSON COOK carson@appenmediagroup.com JOHNS CREEK, Ga. — Taylor Road Middle School teacher Ellie Dosch put her first aid skills to good use when she performed the Heimlich maneuver recently on a student who was choking. On a Friday morning in late October, Dosch’s 6th grade language arts class was having a breakfast party to celebrate finishing “The Hobbit.” One student ate a powdered donut hole, coughed on the sugar and accidently lodged the donut in her throat, Dosch said. “As I’m passing out food to the kids, the other students alerted me that one of my students was choking,” she said. “I went over to check on her and it was apparent that she couldn’t breathe, she couldn’t talk, she couldn’t cough. So I had her stand up and started to do the Heimlich maneuver.” The Heimlich maneuver is a technique, developed by Dr. Henry Heimlich in 1974, for rescuing choking victims by applying pressure to the diaphragm. Along with back slaps, the Heimlich maneuver is recommended by the American
Heart Association and Mayo Clinic for conscious choking victims. In movies, the Heimlich maneuver is portrayed as something simple and sometimes silly — with one thrust, the piece of food dislodges from the character’s throat, catapults through the air and lands in someone’s drink — but in real life it’s messier, Dosch said. As she alternated between abdominal thrusts and back slaps, the student turned blue. Dosch worried that to apply enough force she could injure the girl’s ribs. “It was just really scary having someone else’s child’s life in your hands,” she said. Dosch has taught at Taylor Road for six years and is a lacrosse coach at Chattahoochee High. She took her first CPR and first aid course at Valdosta State University, where it was required for an education major. She has kept up her certification through Fulton County. “I’ve had to use first aid training with lacrosse, just bandaging up wounds and that kind of thing, but I’ve never had to use it in the classroom or at school,” she said. “I really didn’t think it would be an issue. With a class party, usually you

to get CPR/first aid certified and keep it up to date, practice with it, so that they can be prepared when an emergency happens, though hopefully it doesn’t happen,” she said.

State: Continued from Page 29 touchdown pass cut the lead, Chambers scored from 9 yards out to put BT’s lead at 20-6. The Titans’ defense had a critical fourth-down stop with Troup on BT’s 4-yard line and responded with a 96yard touchdown pass from Smith to James Bryant. “Ryan Davis really made that play happen,” McFarlin said. “Two guys went with him because he’s that kind of player and people have to pay attention to him. He was able to carry two defenders on his route and that left Bryant open.” BT’s defense came up with an interception on Troup’s next possession to set up another touchdown. Taking over with a short field, Chambers threw a halfback pass to Ryan Davis for a 23yard touchdown to give BT a sizeable, 34-6 lead late in the first half. “We were able to get the ball around to a lot of people offensively, and I think the offensive line played their best
game,” McFarlin said. “I think we played exceptionally well up front on both sides.” Troup began chipping away following Davis’ second touchdown reception. “There’s no safe lead against Troup,” McFarlin said. Troup scored in the final minute of the first half and found the end zone again on their first offensive possession of the third quarter. Both teams added field goals to put the score at 37-27 entering the fourth. But BT clamped down in the final period. Bryant hauled in his second touchdown of the game early in the fourth and Chambers rumbled in from 4 yards out to extend BT’s lead to 51-27. Troup’s Hudson threw a 37-yard touchdown pass with five minutes remaining, but the Tigers’ onside kick went out of bounds and BT ran out the clock. McFarlin said his team is thrilled for another opportunity to play for a state title and is thankful that the finals were moved to Dec. 12 to accommodate the MLS finals at Mercedes-Benz Stadium. “Like most teams, we’re pretty
banged up, so the game being moved back to the following Wednesday is probably going to be good for everybody,” McFarlin said. The extra days could prove beneficial for defensive lineman JR Bivens and running back Elijah Green who have been battling injuries. Both played limited time against Troup. The Titans will face a somewhat familiar foe in the Class 4A finals, a Cart-
ersville team that will enter the game likely with revenge in mind. Blessed Trinity ended the two-time defending champs’ 41-game win streak last year in the second round of the playoffs. The matchup will feature two squads sporting 14-0 records and the top two ranked teams in the state in 4A. BT faces the Canes at 4:30 p.m. on Dec. 12 at Mercedes-Benz Stadium.
