PCID starts
Lake Hearn
improvements
The Perimeter Community Improve
ment Districts are starting construc
tion on a nearly $5 million project to
upgrade Lake Hearn Drive, Perime
ter Summit Parkway and Parkside Place
in Brookhaven between Ashford Dun-
woody Road and the Perimeter Center
Parkway Bridge across 1-285.
Construction will be staged in zones
with activity beginning in Zone 1 on Pe
rimeter Center Parkway between Lake
Hearn Drive and Parkside Place.
“The Lake Hearn project will help fa
cilitate Perimeter’s live-work-walk envi
ronment and promote the use of alter
native transportation rather than the
automobile,” said PCIDs President and
CEO Yvonne Williams in a press release.
Williams said the project will greatly
improve the connectivity gap for com
muters to medical facilities; Perimeter
Mall, and other large employers.
Construction is expected to be com
pleted in nine months, officials said.
“Pedestrian access will be available
along at least one side of each roadway
during the project construction,” PCIDs
Program Manager Jennifer Harper said.
The project is being funded by a $3.1
million Livable Centers Initiative Trans
portation Grant from the Atlanta Re
gional Commission as well as funding
from the PCIDs.
The work includes “complete streets”
improvements to encourage pedestri
an and bicycle use. A four-foot bike
BRIEFS
lane will be created on Perimeter Sum
mit Parkway from Lake Hearn Drive to
Ashford Dunwoody Road and “share
the road” signage will be added to Lake
Hearn Drive and Parkside Place. Traf
fic signals will be upgraded at all signal
ized intersections. Benches, trees, land
scaping, light poles and trash bins will
be placed along the streets and intersec
tions, Williams said.
Brookhaven
looking for input on
garbage pickup
City Council discussed proposed
changes to DeKalb County’s sanitation
fees at the city’s Jan. 22 meeting. Mayor
J. Max Davis said the county is planning
to raise rates for its twice weekly garbage
pickup service.
“That’s something we’re going to have
to be talking about as a city,” Davis said.
Councilman Jim Eyre said it now
costs $265 a year for two garbage pick
ups, one recycling pickup and one yard
refuse pickup each week. The proposed
rate would be $40 higher for the same
service. However, there is an option to
stay at the current price of $265 for one
garbage pickup a week.
Davis said he’d like to hear input
from Brookhaven residents.
