ATLANTA — A man wanted by the FBI for serial bank robbery in Johns Creek and Marietta has been caught. On Wednesday, Oct. 26, a team of FBI agents and Task Force Officers, along with Cobb County police found and arrested 51-year-old Kevin Ray Williamson in his East Cobb home, according to an FBI spokesperson. The arrest came almost two months after the last robbery, a Renasant Bank in Johns Creek. “The arrest and indictment in this case put an end to an active, eightmonth crime spree, and hopefully returned a sense of safety to the community in Marietta, where most of the

Man allegedly assaults employee with nunchuck JOHNS CREEK, Ga. — A man reported an aggravated assault Oct. 18 after he was allegedly struck by his boss with a nunchuck. The employee was working on moving a light fixture on a house at the owner’s request, when his boss, 47-year-old Gerald Overholt, showed up and began yelling at him. Overholt was allegedly angry about how much money it would cost to move the fixture. The employee went inside the building momentarily to fetch his supplies. Overholt challenged the employee to

robberies occurred,” U.S. Attorney John Horn said. Williamson was indicted by a federal grand jury and arraigned on federal armed bank robbery charges for a total of six robberies spanning from Feb. 4-Oct. Sept. 8. The first four robberies were confined to Marietta, but the last two branched out to Atlanta on Aug. 22 and Johns Creek on Sept. 8. In each of these robberies, Williamson allegedly demanded cash from the teller while brandishing a gun. He would frequently apologize for the inconvenience after placing the money in a dark brief case or messenger bag. “The FBI is proud of the outstanding work of its many agents, task force officers, and analytical personnel in getting the person believed to be responsible for these armed serial bank robberies identified and safely apprehended,” said George Crouch, Acting Special Agent in a fight when he came back outside, because Overholt thought the employee was speaking badly of him, according to the police report. Overholt then went to his car and pulled out a nunchuck and swung it at the employee. The nunchuck left a visible red mark on the back of the employee’s neck, according to the report. A witness stepped between the two men to keep the incident from escalating further. Overholt drove off before police could arrive, but a witness wrote down the plate number to his car. Police attempted to contact Overholt’s last known address, but he has since moved.

Alpharetta, Roswell police warn about counterfeit $100 bills NORTH FULTON, Ga. — Alpharetta and Roswell police have received multiple reports since mid-October about local businesses receiving fake $100 bills. One or two men have been allegedly using the counterfeit $100 notes to make purchases the past two weeks. Police have not yet been able to identify the suspects. The men are probably new to the area and are testing out the bills before using them more widely, said Alpharetta Police Public Information Officer George Gordon. A few locations have been affected, mostly smaller chain restaurants, including Pizza Hut, Jimmy Johns and Moe’s. The suspects order around $10-$15 worth of food and pay with the fake bill to get real cash as the change, according to a Facebook post by the Alpharetta Department of Public Safety. Detection pens may not work on these fake bills. “Several employees have stated they checked the note with a detection pen and it showed it as being legitimate,” the post said. “Do not depend solely on pen detection.” Legitimate bills will have an embedded magnetic strip with the currency denomination printed on it. Any businesses who encounter counterfeit currency are urged to contact their local police.

ALPHARETTA, Ga. - Residents and businesses tuned in to the city’s deliberations on where to put a parking deck west of Main Street will have to wait. City officials report the new consultant for the project is still in the process of collecting information on the proposed sites and they don’t expect to see those results for at least another two weeks. The city has brought on a new consulting firm, Pond & Co., to finalize plans that will allow it to evaluate sites. The switch was made after consultants Kimley Horn presented an outline of the proposed sites at a public workshop attended by close to 80 people. But one element involving a site on Milton Avenue was found to be in error because it included a 12-foot strip the city does not own. As a result, the calculation on the number of spaces in the deck was incorrect. “It allows us to take a breather and just make sure all the facts are calculated and correct,” said Councilman Jason Binder. Binder has led the campaign to bring the decision before the public. The city is considering two sites for the new deck, both on the west side of Main Street. The first, Site A, won early City Council support and is closest to Main Street’s downtown district. It lies within that triangle between Roswell Street and Old Roswell Street. Site A also has the support of the downtown business community, according to an informal poll conducted by city staff last month. The other proposed location, labeled Site D, sits on 1 acre on Milton Avenue, just east of Rest Haven cemetery. It is about two blocks from the Main Street district and has garnered the most support among those residents speaking out on the issue.

OPINION

Georgia presidential election safe as houses There has been a lot of pot-stirring about whether there might be some nefarious plot afoot to “steal” the presidential election. HATCHER HURD In Georgia, let Executive Editor Merle King put hatcher@appenmediagroup.com those fears to rest. King is the man in charge at Kennesaw State University Center for Elections Systems. It is his job and that of his staff to ensure there is neither hanky nor panky going on in the 2016 Georgia elections. King says Georgia’s elections are about as tamper-proof as can be done. His background is information systems and computer science, and he was chair of the Computer Science Department at KSU. He said it actually makes sense for someone with his background rather than, say, political science. That is because virtually every aspect of government and especially elections is now a field of information technology. “We are decidedly apolitical at the university,” he said. “We’re focused on optimizing the technology and maintaining it.” First, he gave me some history. Prior to the 2002 elections in Georgia, each county was responsible for the handling and counting of its votes. If you are old enough to remember what a “hanging chad” was, then you remember how in 2000 the George W. Bush-Al Gore presidential election came down to the recount-by-hand of votes in a few Florida precincts. Counting some of the paper ballots came down to a human eye decision of whether a voting ballot was sufficiently perforated to indicate an actual vote was cast – is that a hanging chad or were you trying to vote? It took a Supreme Court ruling to end the recount, giving the Florida electoral votes – and the election – to Bush.That sobering ordeal caused many states including Georgia to take a hard look at the election process. In most Georgia counties votes were still counted by hand. “In the 2000 election, it was

found Georgia had more votes that were indeterminable than in Florida,” King said. “That was the wakeup call in Georgia.” The first step KING was to install a uniform voting system in all counties and to be sure the equipment was state-of-the art. That was done in 2002. So while the Secretary of State’s office may be subject to the whims and tides of political elections, the Center for Elections has been able to build the institutional infrastructure to make sure the integrity of elections is maintained. King also noted that in any statewide Georgia election, as a practical matter, it is really 159 separate elections held in each county. That means the Center for Elections has overseen some 8,000 elections over the last 14 years. “So you get experience real fast,” King said. Should the issue of voter fraud arise, you have the right kind of people minding the store. They are so obsessive about detail, process and data. King noted a study done by Loyola University in an analysis of almost 1 billion ballots cast. A total of 31 cases of in-person voter fraud occurred. “Those 31 cases are important, but statistically they tell us that [fraud] is a rarity,” he said. So King’s people, in guarding the integrity of elections, focus on the “completeness of process.” By that, he meant accounting for all of the ballots, all the memory cards, determining that ballots can be properly scanned and tabulated. Thus, if you have captured all the votes and have counted them correctly, the election’s integrity has been maintained. So King and his people don’t concern themselves much with theoretical threats – say Russians hacking the system. Instead they stick to the realm of the possible. Hacking is not a threat because the Elections Center is a closed system. Neither it nor the polls is connected to the internet. So the system is safe from attacks via the internet. The system security is com-

pounded by 50 states with 50 different systems. Each processes data differently and none are linked to another. All of these systems have overlapping layers of cyber and physical and procedural security, King said. “It combines to make any undetectable hack virtually impossible,” he said. A conspiracy at the polling level would demand a huge number of people to affect enough polling places to alter the outcome. “I have always held that a conspiracy to defraud an election would have to be so large, that if they just voted they would win the election,” King said. Donald Trump’s continued harping that the election will be stolen from him only points out his lack of understanding of the process, King said. Trump’s call for self-appointed vigilantes to “watch” polling places is ingenuous at best on the face of it. King said election observation is not “an activity of passion.” Rather it takes trained observers to know what artifices to look for. Nor are voting areas places where people are allowed to loiter. Laws are strict on who may be in a voting area other than a voter and a pollster. “The notion of creating expectations that you as a citizen can simply enter and watch with no real idea about laws governing polling, is both naïve and dangerous,” King said. Indeed it is dangerous. I believe it attacks the notion that we have free elections in this nation. If there is widespread disruption of polling places, the disruption may take more than one election cycle to repair. What possible positive outcome could come from uninvited poll watchers who descend on a precinct to “oversee” a full and fair election? It is irresponsible. I think it goes more to the psyche of Donald Trump. He must prepare an excuse for losing the election in advance. That he would try to cast a slur on America’s greatest institution – fair and free elections – is the lowest blow yet in what has been a nasty election from the start. The shame is on him.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

Greenspace bond up to Milton voters October 26, 2016 Dear Editors: Finding ways to preserve the rural character of Milton is something I think most Milton residents can agree on — the unique look and feel combined with our equestrian heritage is just JOE LOCKWOOD one of the many reasons we Milton mayor all love this community. All residents, regardless of when they first moved to Milton or if they had the privilege of being born and raised here, want “Milton to stay the same.” Recognizing individual landowner rights, developing an informed comprehensive plan, promoting controlled development, minimizing tax increases, providing quality city services to residents and responding to citizens’ desires can be a delicate balancing act at times. It is a responsibility that I know your elected officials and city staff take very seriously. With Milton’s 10-year anniversary just around the corner, we have the opportunity to reflect on our accomplishments and learn from our early years as a new city. More importantly, we have the opportunity to look forward to the next decade and collectively decide what we want for our beloved city. One of those opportunities will take place on November 8, when Milton residents will have the opportunity to cast their vote on a multi-million dollar land conservation or “Greenspace” bond referendum. In an effort to address citizens’ desires to protect some land from development, the City of Milton is proposing $25 million in general obligation bonds, which would be used to acquire land for parks, trails and greenspace, including conservation land, wildlife habitat and natural areas. Some other considerations may include preserving trees; prohibiting clear cutting; refraining from eminent domain except when a landowner agrees; and purchasing development rights. If the referendum passes, a new advisory committee would be formed by the City Council to assist with reviewing and recommending land parcels for acquisition. While the City Council will have final purchasing authority, parcels would be acquired after providing ample opportunity for citizen input at public meetings. Approving the referendum is up to Milton residents — the majority of Milton voters must approve the referendum for it to pass. To learn more, visit www.cityofmiltonga.us/greenspacebond. It’s your vote. It’s your Milton. Sincerely, Joe Lockwood, Mayor City of Milton

MHS takes legislator to work Student invites Sen. Albers to school to learn about workers with disabilities By JULIA GROCHOWSKI julia@appenmediagroup.com MILTON, Ga. — As part of the national “Take Your Legislator to Work Day” campaign, Milton High School invited state Sen. John Albers Oct. 27 to shadow student Jacob Moore for the day. The campaign is part of the National Disability Employment Awareness Month in October, which celebrates people with disabilities in the workplace and highlights their skills. The Georgia Council on Developmental Disabilities helped facilitate this exchange. Albers visited MHS for two hours to spend time and work with Moore while he delivered mail at the school. Moore, who is 16 years old and a junior at MHS, has Down syndrome, Autism and childhood leukemia. The visit covers “important connec-

tions between young and old, constituent and elected representative, school and work, not to mention family and community… to bring awareness to the contributions of employees with disabilities,” said Valerie Suber, the Georgia Council of Developmental Disabilities public information director. This is also the first year that MHS has had a community-based instruction program, which provides real-life experiences and hands-on learning to students to prepare them for life out of school. Milton’s program, in particular, aims to “bring students with disabilities to their home schools and teach them skills for continued employment,” Suber said. Moore participates in this job-readiness program as the mail delivery man in the high school. “Mail delivery is the perfect job for [Moore],” said Heidi Moore, Jacob’s mother. “It allows him to meet new people and socialize throughout the school at the same time.” Albers, during his visit, accompanied Moore during his daily rounds of delivering mail across the campus. The experience helped Albers get a glimpse of Moore’s life and the contributions he

can make as a worker when given the opportunity. “It was an honor to join Jacob at Milton,” said Albers. “Experiencing a work day following in his footsteps was truly an eye-opening experience. I got to see how much Jacob means to the students and faculty at Milton and how much they mean to him. It was a joy to see him interact and make a difference.” This is not the first time that Moore and Albers have met. The two have known each other since 2009, when Albers met with the Moores to learn hands-on about how he could support people with disabilities. Albers has since continued to support the disability community and childhood cancer research. In honor of their work together, Albers declared March 10, 2013 as “Jacob Moore Day” during Moore’s “No Moore Chemo” party. This is the first year that Milton High School has participated in “Take Your Legislator to Work Day.” After seeing the success of the partnership between Moore and Albers, they said that they are hoping to continue the campaign and the CBI program for years to come.

Alpharetta hires new consultant to complete deck study Mid-November target date set for updated figures By PATRICK FOX pat@appenmediagroup.com ALPHARETTA, Ga. – It may be another three weeks before the City Council will consider where to put a $5 million parking deck in downtown Alpharetta. The city has brought on a new consulting firm, Pond &Co., to finalize plans that will allow city leaders to evaluate sites. The switch was made three weeks after consultants Kimley Horn featured an outline of the proposed sites at a public workshop attended by close to 80 people. At least one element in the presentation, however, was found in error. One of the two proposed sites – the one located on Milton Avenue – included in its design a 12-foot strip belonging to a neighboring business owner. The property owner had agreed to allow use of the strip for construction but never ceded the property for permanent use. As a result, the calculation on the number of spaces in the deck were

Assistant City Administrator James Drinkard said it was a joint decision with Kimley Horn to bring in a new consultant. incorrect. Assistant City Administrator James Drinkard said it was a joint decision with Kimley Horn to bring in a new consultant. “Kimley felt like where things were and the level of detail that we were starting to get into, that maybe it would be better to go to a different type of consulting firm,” Drinkard said. “We thought that may be a good idea, as well.” The city is considering two sites for the new deck, both on the west side of Main Street. What is called Site A won early City Council support and is located closest to Main Street’s downtown district. It lies between Roswell Street and Old

Roswell Street. Site A also has the support of the downtown business community, according to an informal poll the city conducted earlier this month. The other proposed location, Site D, sits on 1 acre on Milton Avenue, just east of Rest Haven cemetery. It sits about two blocks from the Main Street district and has garnered the most support among those residents speaking out on the issue. They argue that Site A has become a favorite gathering space for pedestrians attending downtown events, such as the Blue Moon Festival and Food Truck Alley. They want that space preserved for pedestrians. While the city made the decision to get another consultant on the parking deck, Drinkard said Kimley Horn remains a valuable service provider to the city. However, the firm recognizes it is involved in other downtown projects and residents might perceive a conflict of interest in which site it proposes as most suitable for a parking deck, he said. Kimley Horn has offices on Roswell Street, a short walk from Site A and some say that creates at least the appearance of a bias as well. Alpharetta Planning Director Kathy

Cook said the city is working with Pond to have revised figures for the two sites completed by mid-November. She said it will be up to city leaders to decide when to put the matter to a vote. Meanwhile, Holly Palmer, an Alpharetta resident who launched a campaign to get the deck built on the Milton Avenue site, said she has been working on the issue. She reported this week she has 562 signatures on a petition she hopes to present to the City Council when it comes time to make the decision. She said she was glad the City Council delayed a vote on the matter until it gets its facts straight. “The city has a transparency PR problem with downtown,” she said. “Anything that can help the city overcome that would be beneficial. I think this will help.” Palmer also said she recognizes the stance of the business community and says she probably would favor Site A if she had a business on Main Street. “ But they don’t get to decide what the heart and soul of Alpharetta is,” Palmer said. “The residents do. Their opinions should definitely be considered, but if residents end up hating the vibe, they won’t go. I know I won’t.”

Royal 400 campus sold in $14M transaction North Point property sale attests to interest in north metro market By PATRICK FOX pat@appenmediagroup.com NORTH FULTON, Ga. – Another week, another mega-deal for office space in Alpharetta. Avison Young Brokers announced Oct. 10 it had arranged the $14 million sale of Royal 400, three single-story buildings within a multi-tenant office park near North Point Parkway. The three buildings sit on approximately 23 acres. The sale comes on the heels of three other mega-million-dollar deals in the past year involving office space in Alpharetta, strengthening the notion that north Fulton is fertile ground for business, said Peter Tokar, director of Economic Development for the City of Alpharetta. “It means there’s an appreciation for the market as well,” he said. “You’ve got these people who have acquired or built these office parks in the past have seen them appreciate over the years. With the shortage of office around, that just makes the value of office go up.” Indeed, eyes of the business world are on north Fulton.

“It’s a very big, very vibrant market,” said Matt Tritschler, principal with Avison Young of Atlanta. “Depending on who you listen to, that market is 20 million square feet to 35 million square feet and has some of the finest suburban office space not only in Atlanta but anywhere in the country.” Avison Young represented the seller, NNN Royal 400 LLC, in the transaction. Built in 1997, Royal 400 is 80.5 percent leased to a lineup of national and regional tenants. “North Fulton, Roswell, Alpharetta has become a major market for Atlanta, Tritschler said. The rise of the office market in north metro Atlanta, Tritschler said, can be tracked back to 1994, when Ga. 400 punched through Buckhead, joining up with I-85 and I-75 in north Atlanta. At about the same time, North Point Mall opened, offering shoppers an upscale selection of shopping. Much of the draw northward comes from the lifestyle and the demographics, but it also doesn’t hurt that the Ga. 400 corridor is equipped with infrastructure to support fiber communications systems. Right now, Class A office space is leasing for from $25 to $27 a square foot, and Tritscher said he expects that price to climb as supply decreases. But, at the same time, developers are a long way from seeing a market

primed for building new office space, he said. Tritscher acknowledged there are exceptions, such as the Hines and Cousins office tower currently being built at Avalon with 250,000 square feet of space and The Edison which will consist of two 100,000 square-foot office buildings off Windward Parkway. “The problem with new construction is that you’ve got to have high $30s to $40 a square foot in rents to make new construction work,” Tritschler said. “Generally, north Fulton and Atlanta is not at that number.” Still, there are places that could support new construction. “New office buildings like what Cousins and Hines are building at Avalon will cost over $300 a square foot to build,” he said. “The very top of

the market that’s trading right now is $170-$180 a foot.” That’s a pretty big gap, he said. “Cousins and Hines are betting they can get the high $30s a foot in gross rent to support their costs to build,” Tritschler said. “It’s a good bet because there are a lot of people, including Microsoft, that want to be there. But it’s a limited group that will or can pay that kind of rent.” That doesn’t rule out new office construction at some point in the future, though. “At some point, assuming we continue to have job growth like we have, most of the good space gets gobbled up and rents move up to where you can justify new construction,” Tritschler said. “There are a lot of people who own land in north Fulton and developers that are on the sidelines, either waiting for a tenant to come along or the market gets strong enough where they can get construction financing and equity to go build.” Nevertheless, new construction on any steady scale, is still a ways off. “There’s still a good $10 difference in the Class A rents between what you can rent right now and what it would cost for new construction,” Tritschler said.

Burn ban issued for city of Milton MILTON, Ga. — On Oct. 21, Milton Fire Marshal Matt Marietta issued an indefinite ban on all outdoor agricultural and yard waste burns due to current weather conditions. The recent drought conditions, extended summer heat, along with high winds and frequent low humidity have created an increased risk of fire spread and outdoor burning, Marietta said. Burning of yard waste, bonfires and other agricultural burns are suspended until conditions change. According to Marietta, since the state burn ban lifted on Oct. 1, Milton has already experienced an increase in the number of outdoor grassfires and other similar incidents over to the same period last year. In addition to the safety risks, violation of this temporary burn ban can result in citations. Outdoor fireplaces and other types of small fire pits are allowed if constructed and located properly. If there is a safety concern regarding an active outdoor burn, citizens should call 911 to have the Milton Fire-Rescue Department dispatched to investigate and take any required remedial action. For questions on the burn ban or the relevant fire codes, contact Milton Fire-Rescue headquarters at 678-2422541 or email Milton’s fire marshal at matthew.marietta@cityofmiltonga.us.

Sales showed an overall downward trend from January 2007 through 2009, illustrating normal seasonal variations. TIM HOPKINS of Hopkins Home Sales 16 | Milton Herald | November 3, 2016

Forsyth County real estate on the rise Market has 12 percent higher sales than last year By KATHLEEN STURGEON kathleen@appenmediagroup.com FORSYTH COUNTY, Ga. — Real estate sales in Forsyth County are on the rise. Tim Hopkins of Hopkins Home Sales spoke Oct. 26 at the quarterly Real Estate Roundtable hosted by the Cumming-Forsyth Chamber of Commerce. So far for 2016, real estate sales are 12.1 percent higher than in the same period in 2015 and 25.4 percent higher than in 2014, he said. In fact, sales were up each month so far in 2016. “Sales showed an overall downward

trend from January 2007 through 2009, illustrating normal seasonal variations,” Hopkins said. “It also showed the distortion in that pattern caused by government purchase incentives in late 2009 and into the first half of 2010. Since then the pattern has shifted into a general upturn in sales since 2010. Sales could be higher in 2016 after lagged closings are processed.” And while sales increased, so did prices. The median sales price is $321,000 which is up 5.8 percent compared to this time last year. The $300,000$499,000 price range continues to see the most sales, followed by $200,000 to $299,000. Additionally, homes are on the market about 40 days on average and there is a somewhat lower supply of homes available. “Sales of resale properties grew in the $200,000 to $749,000 price range during the quarter, offsetting a decrease in two other segments to result in an overall increase of 4 percent,” Hopkins said. Other notable trends include that homebuyers are starting to downsize. The 55 and up communities are gradually increasing and millennials are not ready to buy homes yet.

Sales of resale properties grew in the middle group of resale segments between $200K and $749K during the quarter, offsetting the decrease in two segments to result in an overall increase of 4 percent.

Sandy Springs downtown well under way I’m going to goahead and guess that most of you have not driven down Roswell Road through Sandy Springs lately—unless you had to. It’s a tough stretch GEOFF SMITH of road to get Assurance Financial, gsmith@lendtheway.com through. In fact, I might even go as far as to say that the couple of miles of Roswell Road from Abernathy Road to I-285 may be the slowest section of road to travel in all of the metro area. I could certainly be wrong, but it’s a tough stretch. And it is tough because usually when you drive through there, you just want to get to the other side. Well that may not be the case for much longer. We had our branch’s annual company dinner last week at Rumi’s Kitchen - which is an incredible Persian restaurant in an old garage attached to an IHOP in the center of that Sandy Springs area. Go there, it’s fantastic. But in our drive to Rumi’s, Brenda and I were amazed at the amount of construction going on in that area. A couple years ago I wrote about the City of Sandy Springs planning a new downtown city-center they were calling City Springs. Well, they are done planning. It’s getting built. There are a number of components to the master plan created by Sandy Springs’ city leaders. To drive through the area now you will see several high-rise, high-quality residential buildings going up. And that may not be happening if the city had not been able to purchase several lots in the densely populated area where it is currently building several large projects of its own.

At the intersection of Johnsons Ferry and Roswell Road, the city is deep into construction of a $180-million project that will include a new city hall, a studio theater with meeting space, and a performing arts center, all centered around a 4-acre park with large water fountains. The city hall looks to be about five stories tall and resembles more a modern office building than a typical city hall – which fits Sandy Springs. A very interesting feature of the city hall will be its rooftop garden where visitors can go and enjoy nature on top of an office building overlooking the City Green plaza – which is what the city is calling the 4-acre park with water features. The performing arts center will be 50,000 square feet and will be able to seat 1,000 people. It looks to be a very nice venue with one balcony and a 6,100 square-foot, glass-enclosed lobby. The last section of this property to be developed will actually be privately built. It will be a multi-story development with more than 300 residences in units sitting above a first story of shops and restaurants. The area needed this big shot in the arm. The new development will be a stark contrast to the aging strip

centers that for years stood there. This public project has already sparked several new projects up and down the corridor and is likely to spark several more. The Sandy Springs-Dunwoody area has seen a huge influx of new office developments and corporate relocations. Mercedes-Benz’ new North American Headquarters is under construction and, based on the renderings I’ve seen, it will be stunning. It is going up on Abernathy Road just west of GA400. State Farm is nearly finished with one of the four high-rises for its massive campus off Hammond Drive overlooking the Dunwoody MARTA station. When finished, the project will be more than 2 million square feet and house more than 10,000 employees. And there are other projects either under construction or in the planning stages that will bring even more workers to the area. Sandy Springs is about to get inundated with employees looking for places to live close to their work. And they are about to see their tax-base rise with the buildings. Hopefully, they can use those extra funds to keep improving the infrastructure the way they are building their new City Springs. Because it’s an awesome project.

Segmenting the marketplace Are your sales efforts focused on mass marketing? Do you send the same marketing messages to everyone? Marketing to everyone with the same message and using the same vehicle to deliver your mesDICK JONES sage is sub-optimal to Founder & President Jones Simply Sales taking a segmented approach. Segmenting the marketplace is the first step in providing a foundation to build your marketing program. So how do you segment the marketplace? The ideal market segment needs to pass certain tests in order to be viable. Understanding the number of potential customers, the stability of the segment, the ability to reach prospects, the size of the segment, and ability to produce the revenue are top items to consider. Then there are a number of ways you can divide up the market. Taking a geographical approach is sometimes a good place to start. For example, if you are selling gloves and hats to stay warm, Florida and Hawaii may be segments you avoid. Demographic segmentation is used to divide the market into groups. For businesses that sell to consumers, this could include variables such as age, gender, income, occupation and family size. For businesses that sell to other businesses, this could include items such as type of industry, size of the company, annual revenue or specific issues that may affect one segment but not all. There are many benefits to segmenting the marketplace. First and foremost, you will have a much higher likelihood of better matching the needs of potential customers. Focusing on the right segments can net you a higher market share and help you grow your small business.

GET OUTSIDE GEORGIA:

Delayed Harvest Trout Season begins There’s great news for Georgia’s trout fishing enthusiasts this week – the state’s Delayed Harvest trout season is now open. Running Nov. STEVE HUDSON 1-May 14 on Get Outside Georgia, sections of five Chattahoochee Media Group Georgia streams, the Delayed Harvest season gives trout fishing enthusiasts a unique opportunity to enjoy fishing for trout during the colder months of late fall, winter and early spring. “Delayed Harvest” is a special fisheries program under which selected part of five Georgia streams are managed under a special set of regulations. “DH” waters, as they’re known, are too warm for trout in the summertime. But from Nov. 1 through May 14, those same waters become cool enough to provide good trout habitat. During those months, they’re managed under a set of special regulations designed to provide good trout fishing through winter and early spring. Georgia’s Delayed Harvest program currently includes portions of five streams: • Amicalola Creek, from Steele Bridge Road (County Road 192) downstream to the Georgia Highway 53 bridge • Chattahoochee River, from the mouth of Sope Creek downstream to U.S. 41 • Chattooga River, (Rabun County) from the mouth of Reed Creek downstream to the Georgia 28 bridge • Smith Creek, in Unicoi State Park from below the Unicoi Lake dam downstream to the park boundary • Toccoa River, from 0.4 miles above Shallowford Bridge upstream to a point 450 feet upstream of the Sandy Bottom Canoe Access. To help maintain the quality of the fishing in these streams, a set of special regulations applies to Delayed Harvest waters during the “DH” season. You can find complete info at georgiawildlife.com, but here’s a summary of what the DH regulations require: • Artificials only baits. That means no worms, crickets, Powerbait-type bait, or other natural “digestible” baits. • Strict catch-and-release. All fish caught must be immediately re-

The Delayed Harvest trout season is now open at Amicalola Creek as well as other places around Georgia. turned to the water. • Only single-hook lures can be used. In other words, lures with treble hooks are not permitted. However, it’s okay to use “dropper” rigs when fly fishing as long as each individual lure has only a single hook. Delayed Harvest water is open to spin fishing as well as fly fishing as long as each lure has only a single hook. If you’re using a spinning rod, try a Roostertail, a Mepps Spinner, or a white curly-tailed grub-and-jig. Fly fishers should do well with egg imitations such as Y2Ks or pink Sucker Spawn flies, with San Juan Worms, or with bright and flashy streamers (minnow imitations) such as Woolly Buggers, the Rolex fly or the Hudson Streamer. DH waters offer a great opportunity to hone your trout fishing skills. They’re also excellent places to take young anglers and introduce them to trout fishing.

And, as in years past, there will be opportunities to personally get involved in the DH program too. These come in the form of several volunteer-assisted stocking days where volunteers help DNR fisheries personnel stock trout in some of the less-accessible parts of several DH streams. I’ll be letting you know as these come up on the calendar. They’re a ton of fun! Learn more about each of Georgia’s great Delayed Harvest trout streams in Steve Hudson’s comprehensive 84-page book entitled “Georgia Delayed Harvest Trout Guide.” Packed with info on access and tactics for each of Georgia’s DH streams, it’s available from local outfitters, on Amazon, or direct from the author at chattahoocheemedia.com

CWES students’ fathers participate at the Fathers Being Involved event to launch a project showing mothers are not the only parents that can volunteer at school events

CWES starts father involvement initiative MILTON, Ga. — Cogburn Woods Elementary School hosted its first Fathers Being Involved tailgate event. More than 200 dads and kids gathered for burgers, hotdogs and games courtesy of CWE PTO’s Platinum sponsor, Bay Equity Home Loans. The event is part of the school’s larger Fathers Being Involved initiative that encourages dads to volunteer and participate in school activities. “There can sometimes be a misconception that moms are the only ones volunteering at the school,” said Lisa Garosi, principal at Cogburn Woods El-

ementary School. “We wanted to create specific opportunities just for dads that encourage them to get involved and be engaged. There is a place for everyone at our school and it greatly benefits our students.” After the event, everyone headed to the stadium to watch the Cambridge Bears defeat the Northview Titans 28-7. CWES will continue its efforts with fathers during December with Dads, where dads can be lunch monitors, work the carpool line and even do the morning school announcements.

CWES students raise money for childhood cancer MILTON, Ga. — The students at Cogburn Woods Elementary School raised a total of $3,000 for “Coins4Cure” throughout the month of September. The donations went directly to CURE Childhood Cancer, an organization that funds the research of childhood cancer. All the grade levels from kindergarten through fifth grade competed to see which grade could raise the most money. The third grade won bringing in a total of $900. As an award, the third-grade students were able to duct tape Principal Lisa Garosi to the wall outside the cafeteria. “I am really proud of our students giving back to the community,” said Garosi. “Seeing the students’ dedication to raising funds for an important cause made being stuck to a wall worthwhile and fun.”

Cogburn Woods Elementary School Principle Lisa Garosi is taped to the wall to serve as a prize for the class who raised the most money for “Coins4Cure.”

Maya Dodson played for USA Basketball’s U17 team this summer in the FIBA Women’s World Championships.

St. Francis’ Maya Dodson commits to Stanford Dodson is No. 11 prospect in nation according to ESPN By JOE PARKER news@appenmediagroup.com ALPHARETTA, Ga. -- St. Francis senior Maya Dodson, the No. 11 girls basketball recruit in the country according to ESPN, had plenty of choices as to where she would continue her basketball career at the collegiate level. Her top three choices were the powerhouses of Stanford, Notre Dame and Tennessee, three of the best programs in the nation who have a combined 11 national championships. In the end, Dodson chose the west coast, committing to Stanford through a video posted to social media outlets last week. On her decision, Dodson said academics played a crucial role in her selection. “My top three were all great basketball schools but the thing that put Stanford on the top was academics. Academics is number one” she said. “My parents have always told me that so I believed that Stanford would be the best fit for me academically and I thought I would be happiest there.” “I remember watching Stanford when I was younger and I always thought it would be an awesome school to go to.” When asked of her goals at Stanford, the seemingly obvious answer of

winning a national championship was not uttered. Rather, Dodson said she hopes to take the experience and opportunity to “grow as a person.” “I hope to learn new things, be open to anything, and to set goals to be successful.” Before she joins one of the top women’s NCAA programs, Dodson still has a year left with one of the top teams in Georgia at St. Francis. A 6-foot-3 winger, Dodson has led the Lady Knights to two state championships and was selected to play for USA Basketball’s U17 team this summer for the FIBA Women’s World Championships. Dodson and the Lady Knights will be seeking a third consecutive state championship in Class A and fourth straight appearance in the state championship game. Dodson said the goal for this season will not only be a state championship, but an undefeated season. “We want to try to improve, we are hoping to maybe go undefeated. If we work hard I think we can go back [to the state championship] and hopefully win it again.” Dodson said she expects to continue be viewed as a leader on the team in the coming season. “I’ve been with coach Kennedy for three years now and I know what she expects and she wants us to do. So, I’m just helping my teammates get into the process so we are all on the same page.” Dodson and St. Francis will begin the regular season Nov. 18.

Milton comeback downs Lambert, West Forsyth blows out North By JOE PARKER news@appenmediagroup.com

SOUTH FORSYTH 38, FORSYTH CENTRAL 0 MILTON 20, LAMBERT 17

Lambert had the chance to secure the region 5-AAAAAAA championship, but Milton used a thrilling fourth-quarter comeback to deny Lambert the chance. Milton trailed 17-3 entering the fourth quarter, but two rushing scores from Milton quarterback Jordan Yates and a 34-yard Nick Aguello field goal sealed the upset win for the Eagles. Yates second rushing touchdown came from 44-yards outs with just 1:51 remaining. Milton’s defense held Lambert to 139 total yards. The winner of Milton vs. North Forsyth this Friday will take the final playoff spot in Region 5-AAAAAAA. Lambert can still secure the region title with a win over Forsyth Central this Friday.

WEST FORSYTH 55, NORTH FORSYTH 7

West took down North Forsyth for the fifth consecutive year behind six touchdowns from Wolverine’s quarterback Kiernan Hamilton. Hamilton and the Wolverines opened a 35-7 halftime lead and cruised to the win as its defense held North quarterback Ben Bales to just 87 yards passing on 21 completions while forcing two interceptions.

ROSWELL 59, WOODSTOCK 7

Roswell beat Woodstock by more than 50 points for the second straight year to set up a de-facto Region 4-AAAAAAA championship game against Cherokee this week. Malik Willis accumulated over 300 total yards and five touchdowns, and Sheldon Evans rushed for 129 yards and a touchdown in only two quarters played. Roswell’s defense held Woodstock, who entered the game averaging over 400 yards of offense per game, to just 204 yards.

For the second straight week, Forsyth Central was shut out as South stayed in contention for a region championship when Lambert lost to Milton. South’s defense forced seven turnovers, including a fumble recovery in the end zone, in the win. Drew Morris threw for two touchdowns, and Jared Honey and Sean O’Malley rushed for touchdowns for the War Eagles.

ALPHARETTA 52, DUNWOODY 17

Alpharetta improved to 5-2 in region play after opening a 45-10 lead over Dunwoody at halftime and cruising to a big win. Raiders’ quarterback Matthew Downing threw three touchdowns, all to Carlos Carriere, and Nolan Edmonds rushed for three touchdowns in the win. Jaycee Horn returned a Dunwoody interception 59 yards for a touchdown. Alpharetta can secure a playoff spot with a win over Chattahoochee this Friday.

Chase Owens threw for 212 yards and Joseph Daniels ran for 135 yards in Chattahoochee’s win over the Titans. After allowing a Northview touchdown in the first quarter, the Cougars’ defense shut out the Titans for the rest of the game. Chattahoochee is still in the playoff hunt, but will need to beat Alpharetta this week to secure the final spot in Region 7-AAAAAA.

CENTENNIAL 51, POPE 21

Centennial finished its regular season with a dominating win over Pope on Friday. Quarterback Casen Conway

Johns Creek got a big win over a lowly North Atlanta team and now controls its own destiny for the region championship to be decided this Friday.

Pisgah’s offense compiled 406 total yards and 26 points against a Mt. Paran defense that had only given up more than 10 points once this season, but it was not enough for the Patriots. Pisgah led 7-6 after the first quarter, but Mt. Paran scored 17 unanswered points to take a 24-6 lead at the half. Though Pisgah would cut the lead, it was too little too late for the Patriots who fell to 4-3 in region play.

FELLOWSHIP CHRISTIAN 47, KING’S RIDGE 0

Fellowship Christian blew out King’s Ridge for the second straight year and remained undefeated (9-0) in the process. Running back Andrew Johnson scored three rushing touchdowns, with Andrew Minkert adding another rushing score for the Paladins. Jack Harding connected with Ryan Reid for a 50-yard touchdown pass, and Cameron Gill added a defensive touchdown, returning an interception for a Fellowship

PINECREST 42, ST. FRANCIS 0

Pinecrest quarterback Ryan McCarthy rushed for 144 yards and passed for 48 yards and four total touchdowns to lead Pinecrest to a lopsided win over St. Francis. The Paladins improved to 5-2 in region play this season. Pinecrest’s defense recorded its third shutout of the season, holding the Knights to just over 100 total yards of offense.

Cambridge softball captures first state championship Bears’ defense stifles Alexander bats By JOE PARKER news@appenmediagroup.com COLUMBUS, Ga. — Cambridge softball ended a near-perfect season by capturing its first state championship against Creekview in last Saturday’s 6A state championship in Columbus. The state championship title comes in just the fifth year of the school’s program and its first year in Class 6A. “For us it has been a dream come true,” said coach Anna McDaniel. The Bears’ dominant defense, which allowed just 37 runs in 36 games, proved to be the deciding factor for the Bears in the state championship game as Cambridge shut out Creekview 4-0 to capture the state title. The shutout was the Bears’ sixth of the playoffs and 20th of the season. “It was the defense that got us through all those wins throughout the season,” said McDaniel. “Keara [Napoli] pitched phenomenally from game one through the end.” Napoli pitched a full game for the

Bears in the state championship game, allowing just four hits with four strikeouts. Napoli also hit a home run in the win, while Lindsay Smith went 2-3 with two RBIs. Smith got the scoring started for the Bears in the second inning when she hit a single to drive in Gabby Givers. Cambridge then extended the lead to 2-0 when Becca Claypool hit into a fielder’s choice, allowing Abigail Wilson, who singled earlier in the inning, to score from third. Napoli continued to shut down Creekview’s bats before the Bears’ added insurance runs in the top of the sixth inning. Napoli opened the inning with her home run, followed by Smith’s second RBI to score Chooch Carroll. Napoli got three up and three down in the bottom of the sixth, and after the Bears stranded two runners in the top of the seventh, it was up to Napoli and the Bears’ defense to secure the state championship. Creekview would put a runner on base with a single, but with two outs, Napoli pitched her fourth strikeout, a fitting way to secure the state championship. “It was a very intense game,”

Cambridge softball won the Class 6A state championship last Saturday with a 4-0 win over Creekview. McDaniel said, “but I think we beat them at their own specialties. We played them very well defensively, and our bats came alive which made it a bit easier.” McDaniel said of the win, “It was very emotional. I was there when we were the state runner-ups (in 2014) when we had two outs and ended up losing. For them to finish and win that title was super emotional because I knew that this would be the last time that most of our girls would ever play softball.” The win was the 17th consecutive for Cambridge. Its only loss of the season came against Pope on Sept. 15. At the conclusion of the Bears’

memorable season, they averaged eight runs per game while allowing opponents just one per game. “It was a huge accomplishment for the school. With us being in a different region and different classification and being as competitive as we were was just incredible,” said McDaniel. The Bears six seniors, Napoli, Becca Cleypool, Heather Kipniss, Abigail Wilson, Courtney Campbell and Mariah Kubik, end their Cambridge careers as state champions. With their departures, Cambridge will look to replenish much of the talent of this season’s team. Cambridge will return Taylor Green, Cooch Carrol, Lindsey Smith and Anna Allen next year.

Raiders halt Cambridge winning streak Alpharetta takes down Bears in back and forth game By MILES GARRETT news@appenmediagroup.com ALPHARETTA, Ga. — In its first year in a new region, Cambridge High School is generating all sorts of future rivalries.

The Alpharetta Raiders put an end to Cambridge’s 3-game winning streak

in a game that could have gone either way in a 21-19 victory. Both teams traded blows throughout the first half and into the final two quarters before a failed 2-point conversion try by the Bears sealed the win for the Raiders. “It really could have gone either way,” said Cambridge head coach Craig Bennett. “The biggest difference for us that we had three turnovers that led to 14 points. Alpharetta took advantage of those mistakes.” The passing game struggled to get anything going throughout the game as quarterback Reid Martin could only generate 90 yards throwing the rock. Martin could not be the dual-threat quarterback that he’s been this year as a result of the Alpharetta defense keeping the pressure on the senior. Two interceptions came in response that the Raiders turned into two touchdowns. In addition Cambridge found struggles to convert on third down, going 7-20 on all of its attempts.

“I give a lot of credit to the Alpharetta defense,” Bennett said. “They got pressure on Reid all night and really made it tough on him. We had some open receivers but the quick pressure from their front didn’t allow Reid to see those openings. We will work on our protection and solidify it this week.” The running game behind Martin kept the Bears afloat as it has all season though. Tailback Kaelin Byrd remained, nearly unstoppable for the Bears offense after almost rushing for 200 yards — falling seven yards short of reaching the milestone. Byrd has now rushed for 1,196 with 21 touchdowns even with defenses often keying up on him. Many of Byrd’s yards came after getting hit near the line of scrimmage, a trend that has been seen often in teams that have faced Cambridge this year. “He really does get a lot of attention from defenses,” Bennett said. “They were putting eight in the box and he was still getting some yards. He does a great job of getting yards after contact.” Byrd’s two-yard touchdown in the first quarter set the tone early, before an interception thrown by Martin

was taken back for a score to tie the game. Kicker Victor Valentine, who hit the game-winner for Cambridge a few weeks ago against Johns Creek, hit two consecutive attempts in the second quarter that gave the Bears 13-7 lead. This was once again cut by Alpharetta as a 40-yard throw from quarterback Nolan Edmonds hit Matthew Downing before halftime giving the Raiders a one-point advantage. Alpharetta senior running back Ellis Merriweather powered into the end zone in the third quarter proving to be the winning score. A 12-yard touchdown pass from Martin to junior Will Covington at the end of the game put the Bears in position to tie it, but a failed two-point conversion sealed the Raiders its fifth win this season. Meanwhile, Cambridge heads into a bye week before facing North Atlanta High School for its final regular season game. North Atlanta previously took Alpharetta to the wire, only losing by a touchdown three weeks ago. “We have this week off, so we are focusing on getting healthy and getting some rest,” Bennett said. “We will begin our preparation for North Atlanta this week, they have some really good athletes. We are really just focused on our team, getting healthy a and preparing for the next game.” Kickoff is scheduled for Nov. 4 at Cambridge High School.

NEW CLASSIFICATION, SAME RESULT:

BT volleyball wins state championship Titans capture third straight state championship By JOE PARKER news@appenmediagroup.com MARIETTA, Ga. — Blessed Trinity head volleyball coach Paul Stevens said the realization that his Titans are state champions for the third year in a row has yet to hit him. “It’s still a bit surreal,” said Stevens. Blessed Trinity won its third consecutive state championship, and fourth in five years, last Saturday over Woodward Academy in three sets (25-22, 29-27, 25-22) at Marietta High School. Though the Titans contended with playing in a new classification (4A) as well as a new region, BT showed no signs of trouble playing up in class, finishing a memorable year with a 55-9 record. It took just three sets against Woodward for the Titans to earn the state championship, though all sets were close, as Woodward continually fought back late in each set. After taking the first set, BT appeared to have won the second set when the Titans were called for a fourth contact. That is when Stevens said his

MILTON, Ga. — A man recently reported a burglary in his home with $3,500 worth of items taken.

The front door was also wide open and pieces of the door frame were scattered on the floor. The man, unsure if anyone was still inside the house, immediately called 911.

FORSYTH COUNTY, Ga. — A man reported someone stole his identity and used his credentials in an attempt to buy a car Oct. 26. The victim was contacted by a Michigan man who alerted the victim that someone was using his identity. The Michigan man had been selling a car online and was emailed by someone claiming to be the victim. The person emailing the man in Michigan included a scanned copy of the victim’s license. The Michigan man became suspicious when the number he was given for the victim was from Chicago. He said that he thought the emails and sale were a scam and promptly contacted a private investigator to look into the matter. The victim has already contacted police, the credit bureaus and his bank.
