A variance means that the landowner (Glock) wants permission to override development regulations that are designed to protect our community, in this case, a stream. Our community should not be sacrificed for the benefit of 1 landowner. The City Council has the power to grant variances. Glock has power, money and attorneys. Our strength is in large numbers of concerned citizens. It doesn’t matter whether you live in Smyrna or not. Citizens throughout Smyrna need to recognize that our current City Council is more concerned with helping boost industrial development than in protecting the quality of life of the residents. It is untenable that the City could permit this type of zoning without considering the impact on its residents. NOTE: This is NOT an anti-gun site. The majority of residents involved in this issue have no problems with guns, the 2nd Amendment, or gun manufacturing. The problem is with the location of the gun manufacturing facility so very close to residential neighborhoods of young families.

She is employed at Roof 911 on Atlanta Road. Multiple severe storms came through metro Atlanta, especially ‘09. ree severe storms caused wind and hail damage. e hail paths are documented for over 3” in Mableton. e damage is not always visible at a distance. With “Cougar paws” and/or harness the roof is inspected for metal and or lost ceramic chips. Exposed asphalt to the hot sun leaves less resilience to weather and the shingle no longer protects, becomes brittle and loose, leaks occur, and ceiling/drywall damage is the result. Insurance premiums protect homeowners from damage. Many adjusters deny the claim without representation by someone knowledgeable about forensic engineering and storm data. Before you call your adjuster, Shirley with Roof 911 will meet with you, have your roof examined for free and Roof 911 will meet with your adjuster detailing the damage to win your claim. Roof 911 is licensed and insured up to 2 million dol- lars. Roof 911 goes beyond the usual one-year labor warranty and warranties work for 5 years in addition to the type of shingle (25/35/50/lifetime shingle warranty) quality you buy. Roof 911 has 3 ply, architectural, presidential shingles, slate and slate shingles as slate, copper or specialty work-you choose. Most of us simply need new roof shingles. Roof 911 also engineers church and industrial projects and can also engineer other home improvement projects. Many commercial/church references. Please call or leave a message for Shirley at 404.691.2934. The Johnston’s Crossing Yard Sale: August 14 Holiday: Labor Day: September 6 REMINDERS Keeping neighbors in the KNOW!

Someone found 59-year-old Samuel Simmons’ body Tuesday afternoon in a wooded area off Oakdale Road in Smyrna. Police emailed Channel 2 Action News pictures of three men they are calling “persons of interest” in the case. In neighborhood news: Criminal activity took place this weekend involving five well dressed young men of the approximate age of fifteen. The activity took place in broad daylight along Brookside Drive. It appeared that the young men were visiting friends until their activity escalated to rock throwing the kick- ing in of a homeowner’s garage door. The young men left prior to the arrival of Cobb County police officers. The officers discovered that the home was broken into from the backside but there was no damage to the interior of the home. The homeowners weren’t home at the time. If you observe any suspicious neigh- borhood activity, do not confront the perpetrators. Call 911!
