Georgia Outdoor Water Use Update - June 2009
Share this post by email - 1 Comment - View And/Or Add A Comment »Governor Perdue announced today that due to significant rainfall and improved water supplies the Georgia Environmental Protection Division (EPD) has issued a non-drought schedule for outdoor water use for the first time since June 2006.
The State of Georgia has returned to a non-drought schedule for outdoor water use. Under a non-drought schedule, outdoor water use is allowed three days a week on assigned days using odd and even-numbered addresses.
Odd-numbered addresses can water on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Sundays. Even-numbered and unnumbered addresses are allowed to water on Mondays, Wednesdays and Saturdays. Outdoor watering is prohibited on Fridays.
Water use may occur at any time of the day on the assigned days, but to be water efficient, landscape watering should not occur between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. The non-drought schedule is included in the Rules for Outdoor Water Use (PDF document) adopted by the Board of Natural Resources in 2004.

Gwinnett Solicitor Investigating BoC
Share this post by email - No Comments - Add A Comment »The Gwinnett County Solicitor’s Office has opened an investigation related to two rezoning applications approved by the Gwinnett County BoC. Both cases involve recent rezoning votes by the BoC associated with solid waste transfer stations and campaign contributions made by the developers who benefited from these BoC votes.
The Gwinnett County planning department, planning commission and Gwinnett Village Community Improvement District had recommended denial for the rezoning requests. A group opposed to one of these projects along with nearby business owners, are currently challenging the board’s decision in Superior Court.
The Gwinnett County Solicitor’s Office is responsible for the prosecution of all State misdemeanor crimes in the State Court of Gwinnett County and all County ordinance violations (including traffic citations) in the Recorder’s Court of Gwinnett County.

Gwinnett County Burn Ban Begins
Share this post by email - No Comments - Add A Comment »Gwinnett County is under a total outdoor burn ban from May 1 to September 30. All types of outdoor/open burning are prohibited during this time period.
The Georgia Environmental Protection Division (EPD) imposes a ban on outdoor burning to comply with Federal Clean Air Regulations. During the summer months in Georgia, the ozone in the air we breathe can reach unhealthy levels. The Georgia EPD has identified outdoor/open burning as a significant contributor of the pollutants that form ozone. Consequently, open burning in metro Atlanta is restricted during the warm weather season. The safe use of barbeque grills for outdoor cooking is still allowed.
The following types of outdoor/open burning are banned:
• Burning of trees, limbs, or any other yard waste
• Burning over of forest or land by the owners of the land
• Burning of vegetative waste from land clearing (includes a ban on the use of air curtain destructors)
The following types of outdoor/open burning are still allowed, provided the proper permits are obtained:
• Fires for agricultural practices (must be zoned RA-200/residential agricultural) or a forestry prescribed burn.
• Fires for recreational purposes or for cooking food to include barbeques and campfires (in a designated campground area).
• Fires for the purpose of training firefighting personnel
For additional information about open burning, visit the Fire Marshal?s website at www.gwinnettfiremarshal.com or call the Office of the Fire Marshal at 678.518.6100.

New Gwinnett Dog Barking Resolution Considered
Share this post by email - No Comments - Add A Comment »By PATRICK FOX
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Friday, January 30, 2009
Gwinnett dog owners will be required to keep a closer ear on their best friends if a draft resolution under consideration becomes law.
The county’s citizen Animal Advisory Council is considering changes to the animal control ordinance that sets more specific limits on how long and how loud a dog can bark. It also expands the description for tethering of animals.
The biggest change is the definition of “intermittent” barking, which would be defined as any vocalization by an animal for a continuing period of 30 seconds or more on five or more occasions in any 30-minute period. The current ordinance does not define intermittent, but only states that such barking cannot go on for more than 30 minutes.
The draft proposal also defines as a nuisance any vocalization plainly audible to a person of ordinary hearing ability not located on the same property as the animal. The proposal would excuse barking “given as a warning to the presence of a person trespassing on the property” where the animal is located.
The proposal has generated some chatter on local blogs, but county officials dismiss some of the criticism as preposterous.
Karen Thomas, director of the county attorney’s office, which is helping draft the ordinance, said the advisory council is addressing the issue because of concerns raised in the community.
“It’s the whole balancing thing of if you have an animal, then you should care for the animal,” she said. “It’s to help make sure there is no mistreatment of animals.”
Penalties include up to a $1,000 fine and six months in jail. The proposal, in its infancy, is not scheduled to be heard by the County Commission any time soon.
Advisory council chairperson Gail LaBerge would not comment on the specifics of the ordinance, saying only that its under review.
Randy DeCarlo, a frequent critic of the animal control ordinance, said there is a more sinister motive behind the effort.
“The main crux of the problem with the animal ordinance on barking is they allow anybody to file a criminal complaint against you, without any investigation from any policing agency,” DeCarlo said. “If you own one dog, you face six months in jail. That’s absurd. You don’t put people in jail because their dogs bark.”
DeCarlo added that the ordinance may curtail adoptions at the animal shelter, resulting in more animals being put down.
“I can’t remember the last time we impounded a dog for barking,” said shelter manager Mary Lou Respess.
The new ordinance, she said, actually makes it tougher to prosecute an owner because it ultimately takes two neighbors - not one - to swear out a barking complaint.
“People don’t say ˜I’m not going to adopt a dog because it might bark,” Respess said. “It just doesn’t come up.”

Graduation Banners
Share this post by email - 2 Comments - View And/Or Add A Comment »Changes to the temporary signs section of the Gwinnett County Sign Ordinance were approved by the Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners on March 25, 2008. These changes include adding a section to allow for graduation banners.
Graduation banners may be placed on residentially zoned property. Such banners may be no more than 24 square feet in size and must be maintained in good condition and individually attached to a pole, mast, arm, or other structure. A graduation banner may not be displayed on any lot for more than 60 consecutive days.

May 7th, 2008 at 4:18 PMYou must be kidding. With Gwinnett’s problems with traffic, illegal immigration, budget, and other issues, they took the time to worry about including graduation banners in a law. Personally, I think graduation banners are tacky and even cheesy (referring to the ones that go on the entrance of subdivisions), but I realize that at that point in your life, kids think that graduating from high school is the most significant thing in life. However, even if they are tacky, do we need a law addressing them? So we need Gwinnett cops and code enforcers wasting time trying to figure out if a banner has been up for 59 days or 61? Just another example of the out of control influence of government in the most menial things in our lives. When are we as citizens going to say enough and tell government to back off?

The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Published on: 03/24/08Turns out those celebratory graduation banners that pop up every spring in front of Gwinnett County subdivisions have one teensy, weensy little problem.
Technically, they’re illegal.
Just in time for graduation season, the County Commission is set to address that problem Tuesday with an ordinance that would put proud parents back on the right side of the law. The ordinance would also spare code enforcement officers the awkward task of having to pull down signs blaring such happy news.
“It was a big issue because you had parents who wanted to show pride in their kids and they’re weren’t able to,” said County Commissioner Mike Beaudreau.
The issue caused a ruckus last spring, with rumors of a ban on the signs leading to complaints to the county and eventually an informal suspension of the rules on graduation banners.
Kathy Holland, director of the county planning department’s development division, said parents have always been allowed to post a sign of up to 16 square feet in their own yards celebrating a graduation.
But nothing in the county’s sign ordinance authorizes the display of graduation banners typically found at the entrance to subdivisions, she said.
“What was happening is they were being removed through the typical sign sweeps,” she said.
If approved, the new rules will allow banners of up to 16 square feet for up to 60 days, so long as they’re kept in good repair and don’t encroach on the right of way.
At that size, some neighborhoods could still get into hot water.
While individual signs are by far the most popular, most neighborhood groups go for signs of 15 to 32 square feet, said Nicole Mewhiney, account manager at FastSigns in Norcross.
Jill Stoneberg, a resident of Flowers Crossing at the Mill in Lawrenceville, said her neighborhood association would likely ask that the county increase the size of the banners to make sure her 600-home subdivision can get all of its kids properly listed.
“The smaller the banner, the smaller the fonts,” she said. “It’s hard to read.”
Holland said she realized some groups may not be happy with the size restriction, but said her office tried to remain consistent with what was already contained in the law regarding such signs.
“It’s something we didn’t want to discourage but felt we needed to have some control,” she said.

• Click here for May 2009 Gwinnett County outdoor watering schedule and restriction updates…
Water restrictions continue
While watering restrictions remain in effect due to the continuing drought in North Georgia, a few of those limits have been eased to allow Gwinnett County homeowners to water plants by hand and swimming pools to open through September 30.
An administrative decision signed by County Administrator Jock Connell on April 2, 2008, spells out the watering restrictions currently in effect for Gwinnett County. Residents may now hand water plants between midnight and 10:00am on the even-odd schedule allowed by the state. Watering is limited to 25 minutes using a standard spray nozzle that turns off when released.
The Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners delegated day-to-day water conservation decisions to County Administrator Jock Connell in March to allow for quick decisions that may be necessary as drought conditions and state regulatory mandates change.
Toilet rebates available
Residents can take advantage of toilet rebates that are available for toilet replacements in single family residential homes built before 1993. The rebate amount of either $50 or $100 depends on whether the replacement toilet is 1.6 gallons per flush or 1.28 gallons per flush. A maximum of two toilets per household may qualify for the rebate. For more details about this program, visit www.northgeorgiawater.com, call 404.463.8645, or send an email to toiletrebate@northgeorgiawater.org.

Door To Door Solicitors
Share this post by email - No Comments - Add A Comment »I was recently having a discussion with a neighbor regarding door-to-door solicitors and thought that I would share some information. First off, the direct link to the Gwinnett County municipal code regarding solicitors may be found here: ARTICLE IX. CANVASSER OR SOLICITOR.
The following is an excerpt:
Sec. 18-239. Unlawful or prohibited activities.
The following are prohibited practices for canvassers and solicitors and any violation shall constitute grounds for suspension, revocation, or denial of renewal of certificate or permit, and/or arrest.
(1) Canvassing or soliciting on Sunday, or between the hours of 7:00 p.m. and 9:00 a.m. Monday through Saturday.
(2) Canvassing or soliciting at any location where a sign is posted at or near the main entrance or driveway to the residence or business prohibiting such activity.
(3) Using any entrance, or part of the building, other than the main entrance to the residence or business.
(4) Entering a residence except at the express invitation of the occupant.
(5) Failure of the canvasser or solicitor to inform the occupant in plain terms of the purpose of the call.
(6) The canvasser or solicitor to represent that they are participating in any contest, game or other competitive endeavor, or that they are offering the occupant an opportunity to participate in any such contest, game or endeavor.
(7) The canvasser or solicitor to use vulgar, insulting or threatening language in the course of any solicitation.
(8) The canvasser or solicitor to remain upon the property of the residence or business after the occupant has verbally indicated that they do not wish to make a purchase or donation. For the purpose of this chapter, a solicitation shall be deemed to continue until the solicitor has left property of the residence or business.
(9) Canvassing or soliciting anyone under the age of 18.
(10) Failure of canvasser or solicitor to have a valid permit prominently displayed on their person (upper front portion of the body commonly referred to as the top of the shoulders down to the waist) or refuse any customer or prospective customer’s request to examine same. All canvassers or solicitors of non-profitable organizations who solicit funds without a certificate or permit shall have prominently displayed documentation identifying themselves, their organization including tax exempt status, and shall not refuse any customer or prospective customer the right to examine same upon request. Except that canvassers or solicitors of non-profit organizations who are under the age of 15 are not required to display or produce for examination any documentation.
(11) For more than two canvassers or solicitors to engage in solicitation upon any residence or business at the same time for the same goods or services.
(12) Canvasser or solicitor to make more than one solicitation call at the same residence within any consecutive two-week period without receiving prior invitation from the occupant of such residence.
(13) Canvasser or solicitor to violate any of the provisions of this chapter, or to violate any other county ordinance while engaging in any of the activities described.
(14) Canvasser or solicitor to engage in any of the conduct described in this chapter during a period in which their certificate or permit is denied, suspended, or revoked.
(15) Canvasser or solicitor to lend, rent, or sell their certificate or permit card to another, or canvass or solicit using the certificate or permit card of another.
(16) The canvasser or solicitor to deviate from the stated guidelines as set out in the certificate or permit application or amendments thereto filed by applicant or certificate holder.
On a more personal note, a few years ago I went up to the Mountain Park Ace Hardware and purchased a five dollar “No Solicitors” sign and affixed it to the house next to the doorbell. It has dramatically cut down the number of solicitors who actually ring the bell. I have witnessed them walk up the driveway, see the sign and turn around and walk away.
Additionally, I would highly recommend that should you have a house dog, of any temperament, get a “Beware Of Dog” sign and affix it to a place near your front door,… just in case.

This is cute. Perdue is either naive, stupid, on the take or all of the above if he believes that the people will conserve on their own. Lanier will be in trouble again before the end of spring.
