Man denied entry to party arrested for striking host ROSWELL, Ga. — Officers were beckoned to a house party along Riverwood Lane March 27 after an uninvited guest allegedly smashed a bear bottle over one homeowner’s head. Jose Roni Colindres-Florez, 35, address unknown, was arrested and charged with aggravated assault. Police said Colindres-Florez was known to guests at the party as someone who could become adversarial after drinking. When he showed up to the March 27 gathering, apparently after having been drinking, the host wouldn’t let him in and asked him to leave. Colindres-Florez responded by hitting the victim in the head and neck with a glass beer bottle, police said. The victim was able to avoid some of the blows and did not sustain any serious injuries. Colindres-Florez left the scene, striking the victim’s car with his own on the way out. He was later apprehended at a bar along Holcomb Bridge Road.

Manufacturing building breached by burglar ALPHARETTA, Ga. — Police were dispatched to a March 28 burglary at the Robatech USA manufacturing plant on Alderman Drive. Police said a male suspect dressed in black used a crowbar to pry his way into the business, and surveillance footage showed him break into one of the offices inside. The company’s owner was not sure if anything was missing, but told police a laptop was possibly stolen. Police collected fingerprints. No arrest was made.

Same vehicle spotted at string of auto break-ins ROSWELL, Ga. — Police received reports of three separate auto break-ins near Alpharetta Street on March 22. Witnesses described a gray Dodge Charger with a temporary tag near the scene of each of the thefts, police said.

Kemp expresses support for small, local businesses By KATIE ANDERSON newsroom@appenmedia.com JOHNS CREEK, Ga. — A year after the global pandemic forced businesses to close their doors, Gov. Brian Kemp says he remains committed to supporting small businesses. Speaking at a breakfast March KEMP 23 at the Atlanta Athletic Club, Kemp said that as a small businessman himself, he saw firsthand the effects of COVID on businesses and the economy. “People started feeling like I have worked for generations to build this business that I have, or I have worked for this family business for over a decade,” Kemp said. “And all of that felt like it was being lost.” Kemp’s address was presented by the Johns Creek Chamber of Commerce, in partnership with Emory Johns Creek Hospital. In April 2020, Kemp was one of the first governors in the country to begin a phased reopening of businesses with certain restrictions. Despite criticism from the media and other politicians, Kemp said he stands by this decision and that it ultimately achieved his goal of keeping people safe while also protecting the economy. “I just felt like we needed to give people a fighting chance,” he said. “I still think that was the right thing to do, because that balanced approach gave us the ability to help continue to protect people, but also protect your

paychecks.” Fulton County Commissioner Liz Hausmann expressed her appreciation to the governor for the work he had done to keep the economy alive during the crisis. “Governor Kemp, I just want to thank you for your leadership, especially this last year, you really have focused on the right thing and focused on people,” Hausmann said. “You kept our economy going, you focused on the health of our state, kept your message consistent. It’s really meant the world to us. And here we are, hopefully at the end of this pandemic, and our state is ready to go and poised for a great recovery.” Johns Creek Mayor Mike Bodker also expressed his support for the governor’s actions during the pandemic. Kemp said he recognizes there is still a lot of work to do to overcome setbacks faced by businesses and schools, and it may take years to recover. “I just want to thank you for your resiliency, small business owners and members of the Chamber, I know that you’ve been giving back to your community and really trying to help where you can,” Kemp said. “It’s been a very tough time for small business people. That’s where a lot of people have struggled. We’re going to have to continue to focus on that as we fully reopen our economy” Kemp urged everyone to get their vaccines when able, but in the meantime, follow the safety guidelines that have been advised for the past year. Continue to wear a mask and practice social distancing. Kemp announced later that same day that all adults over the age of 16 will become eligible for the vaccine beginning March 25.

Agencies, clinics step up efforts to vaccinate Georgians Numbers show sites running at full throttle

Georgia opened the door wider on March 25 for those seeking a vaccination for COVID-19 virus.

By ZOE SEILER newsroom@appenmedia.com METRO ATLANTA — Georgia opened the door wider March 25 for those seeking a vaccination for the deadly COVID-19 virus. Georgians age 16 and older are now eligible to receive the vaccines. “I feel like we’re turning a corner,” Alpharetta resident Debbie Engler-Key said following her vaccination. She said people are getting vaccinated for themselves and for others. “In order for the whole community to go back, the whole community needs to be vaccinated, so it’s almost like your civic responsibility to me,” she said. Engler-Key has received both doses of the Moderna vaccine. Heather Wagner, also of Alpharetta, has received one dose. “It feels good to have the vaccines and now to be able to be eligible and get them,” Wagner said. The vaccination effort spans public and private sectors. Vaccination sites are being operated by the Georgia Department of Public Health, Georgia Emergency Management Agency and Homeland Security, and by the counties. Private pharmacies, like CVS and Kroger, are also administering shots. All sites are operating at full throttle in north Metro Atlanta. Forsyth County Communications Director Karen Shields said that as of March 23, healthcare workers had administered 1,997 vaccines at the county’s site at the Forsyth Conference Center at Lanier Technical College. Fulton County had administered 525,000 doses of the state’s 3.2 million doses by March 22, Fulton County Commissioner Bob Ellis reported. The DeKalb County Board of Health reported that, as of March 20, its sites had administered 44,487 doses of the vaccines. The number doesn’t include private providers or retail pharmacies, such as CVS, Kroger, Publix and Walgreens, said Eric Nickens, manager at the Office of Marketing and Business Development for the DeKalb County Board of Health. Forsyth County Forsyth County’s vaccination site at Lanier Technical College has been open since March 17. Prior to that, the county partnered with Northside Hospital and other organizations to administer vaccines at two churches over eight weeks in January and February. During that time, 11,644 vaccines were administered, Shields said. Forsyth County residents have been

pleased with the process that provides second dose appointments when the first dose is administered, Shields said. GEMA operates nine sites that administer the Pfizer vaccine. Its lone Fulton County site at the Delta Air Lines Museum had administered 25,756 doses as of March 16. GEMA operates no sites in DeKalb or Forsyth counties, said Erica Inniss-Alexander, external affairs specialist for GEMA. Tracking residency Keeping track of the number of residents vaccinated in a city or county is virtually impossible, based on the state’s wide-open rollout. “The reality of that data is that it seems a better indicator of how many vaccine doses have been administered in a county, as it does not account for where the individuals receiving the vaccine actually live,” said Alpharetta Assistant City Administrator James Drinkard. “Given that we know people are crossing county lines seeking vaccinations, this is a critical issue in that data.” Outside of Atlanta, cities do not operate their own health and human services departments. That is left up to the counties, Johns Creek Mayor Mike Bodker said. “The vaccination program to date has been run through a combination of the county and the state, mostly at this point,” Bodker said. “[That’s] because, one, the vaccines come into the health department, and two, because there isn’t enough vaccine for the cities really to jump in.” Bodker said some cities have volunteered emergency medical technicians to help. “What the cities have done is we›ve provided paramedic personnel to help supplement the number of people that are there giving the vaccinations at the county sites,” he said. “We’ve all volunteered a certain number of days of paramedic help to help administer the vaccines.” Fulton County in full swing The Fulton County Board of Health is operating three sites. One at MercedesBenz Stadium, another at 4700 North Point Parkway in Alpharetta, and the third in College Park at the Aviation Cultural

Center. Of the estimated 525,000 doses administered in Fulton County, about 25 percent were done at the public health sites, County Commissioner Ellis said. Depending on the supply from the state, the Fulton County sites have the capacity to administer about 1,000 doses a day. So far, the largest number of vaccines given on one day between all three sites was about 4,700, Ellis said. He said he has received good feedback about the North Point Parkway site in Alpharetta, which also serves as a COVID-19 testing site. Alpharetta’s Drinkard said the city has found the vaccination site to be running efficiently, but he noted that the major issues are related to the ability to get an appointment. Alpharetta residents Wagner and Engler-Key said they experienced issues scheduling an appointment but the vaccination process itself went smoothly at private pharmacies. Early on, Engler-Key signed up on multiple websites, but all appointments were full. She heard through friends that smaller towns had more supply than the cities, so she was prepared for a road trip. “I heard back from a couple of others,” she said. “They emailed me back right away saying ‘our appointments are full. Try back again later.’ So it was a little discouraging.” Later, she got an email from a pharmacy in Mableton that said if she could arrive by 5 p.m., she could receive the vaccine. “So, I jumped in my car and drove over there,” she said. Engler-Key said she had better luck with scheduling by calling or emailing providers. She had no responses from websites she signed up through. Wagner also struggled to find an appointment. “I was trying to go through a lot of different sites, and just couldn’t find one available at the time,” Wagner said. “I was waiting patiently because I’m under the educator category and just waiting until I was eligible.” She made her appointment over the phone at the Kroger on South Atlanta Road. “It was just surreal in a way of, oh my

Five things to know about the COVID-19 vaccines Where to get a vaccine The Georgia Department of Public Health, Georgia Emergency Management and Homeland Security Agency and local counties are administering the vaccines. Appointments can be scheduled through the state each agency’s website as well as myvaccinegeorgia.com. The state department of public health also has links to private vaccination sites like Kroger, Publix, Walgreens and Walmart. Anyone struggling to schedule an appointment can call the health department vaccine scheduling resource line at 888-457-0186. Eligibility As of March 25, all Georgia residents age 16 and older are eligible to receive the COVID-19 vaccine. Vaccines available The three vaccines available are the two-shot Pfizer and Moderna vaccines and the one-shot Johnson and Johnson vaccine. Not all vaccination sites have each option available, and the options are noted online. Currently, 16 and 17 year olds can only receive the Pfizer vaccine due to FDA approval, and a parent or guardian must accompany them during their appointment. Cost of the vaccines Vaccinations are free, but providers may be able to charge administration fees. The fee will be billed to one’s insurance with no out-of-pocket cost, according to the Georgia Department of Public Health. There is also no out-of-pocket cost to the patient at vaccination sites run by the Georgia Emergency Management and Homeland Security Agency. What to bring to an appointment Patients going to county or GEMAoperated sites should take identification and the QR code provided when they signed up for the appointment. Additional information can be found on the GEMA, county and private providers’ websites. goodness, we finally are getting this going, and just going through that process was just like I was going to get my flu shot as

Alpharetta Farmers Market prepares for new season

located on North and South Broad streets around the Town Green in downtown Alpharetta in front of City Hall. Last year’s event began late when fallout from the pandemic forced the city to close the Town Green. It found a home in May in the parking lot at Haynes Bridge Road and Old Milton Parkway. It moved back to the Town Green in July after the city established a plan that encouraged added safety measures. Because of distance guidelines, the number of vendors was cut in half. The market, which is sponsored by the Alpharetta Business Association, was created as a healthful way to showcase growers and artisans from throughout the region and boost the number of visitors to downtown. More information on the event can be found on the market’s Facebook and Instagram pages. — Patrick Fox

ALPHARETTA, Ga. — The annual Alpharetta Farmers Market returns to downtown Saturday, April 3, operating from 8:30 a.m. to noon. The popular event, now in its 18th year, regularly draws thousands to downtown and will run every Saturday through Nov. 27 with approximately 90 vendors. “We decided to add several weeks to the market this year after requests from vendors who wanted an extended season and customers who want to shop the market through the fall,” said Taylor Yurgalevicz, Farmers Market manager. “Our focus this year is more on the farmers who will provide produce, meat, plants, and flowers. Customers will see many of their favorites back, but we’re limiting the number of vendors in each category so we can provide a broader range of goods. This also allows us to offer more locally grown and sourced farm fresh items and homemade food.” Safety precautions will remain in place, including spacing between vendors, hand sanitizing stations, and social distancing. The market is

Group unveils historical marker for Roswell lynching victim By ZOE SEILER newsroom@appenmedia.com ROSWELL, Ga. — In 1936, a White couple filed a complaint against a Black man to the police, claiming he kissed the wife’s hand after making repairs in their apartment. It was later reported that Mack Henry Brown was abducted and missing for a month. His body was found Dec. 23, 1936, in the Chattahoochee River in what is now Roswell’s Riverside Park. Brown was one of 36 documented lynching victims in Fulton County between 1877 and 1936. The Fulton County Remembrance Coalition started the Community Remembrance Project to recognize lynching victims by collecting soil from lynching sites and building historical markers. The organization unveiled a historical marker for Mack Henry Brown Feb. 22 at Riverside Park near the mouth of Big Creek. “A historical marker component is significant to the programming because it’s meant to commemorate documented victims of racial terrorism with personalized maker installations acknowledging their lives,” said Erika Barnes Ford, cochair of the Mack Henry Brown Historical Marker Committee. Soil from Brown’s lynching site was the first soil FCRC collected in the series of 35 other soil collections, and the historical marker is the first to be installed, Fulton County Remembrance Coalition founder Allison Bantimba said at the unveiling. The marker helps the community honor Brown by making his story publicly owned and visible. It also hopefully encourages people to speak openly and correct history, Ford said. “By recognizing Mr. Brown as a victim of a lynching, we are educating the community, building awareness of a history of racial domestic terrorism, and also the connections of the present to the past for broader community engagement,” Ford said. Following the viewing of the unveiling, the Fulton County Remembrance Coalition hosted a panel discussion to look at historical and contemporary lynchings and how to ensure it is not visited upon future generations, Ford said. The panel was moderated by Remembrance Coalition member Mike Harris. Panelists included journalist and author Karen Branan, Kroc Institute for International Peace Studies professor David Anderson Hooker, author Birdel Jackson, III, and State Rep. Josh McLaurin.

JAMES BROWN/SPECIAL

Mack Henry Brown Historical Marker Committee member Birdel Jackson, III, spoke at the unveiling of the tribute Feb. 22, at Riverside Park in Roswell.

Harris opened the conversation by saying it’s important to think about what happened to Brown and that one would think a kiss on the hand would be considered honorable, but it was perceived as an aggression. No one was charged or held accountable for Brown’s death, coalition member Kay Howell said at the unveiling. “Impunity was really at the heart of the problem because why did they do it? Because they could,” Branan said. Branan, author of “The Family Tree,” said she found only two White people sentenced in lynching cases in Georgia. She said both got off and didn’t spend more than a year in jail. “People knew they could get away with it,” Branan said. “Even today, the impunity still exists. It exists in our police departments and it exists with the current crop of mob members that assist in police murders.” Hooker offered another perspective that impunity suggests that the action was wrong and then people were not held accountable. But there is a cultural narrative in the United States that never gave full humanity to Black and Brown people, so harming them wasn’t necessarily wrong, he said. “Impunity would suggest people were doing something that was in fact wrong as opposed to a structural violence and a direct violence that comes out of the cultural narrative that gives that violence sense,” Hooker said. The historical markers create a counternarrative so that the violence becomes wrong, Hooker said.

[The community] has been our biggest cheerleaders…it’s been humbling. JODI CHIECO, Restaurant owner 9 | Alpharetta-Roswell Herald | April 1, 2021

Restaurant group credits local support in enduring 2020’s challenges

NEWBUSINESSSPOTLIGHT

By TIFFANY MORGAN newsroom@appenmedia.com ALPHARETTA, Ga. — The COVID-19 pandemic ravaged the restaurant industry, but a little over a year after restaurants were forced to close dining rooms, a local, family-owned restaurant group is bouncing back. The Chieco family owns four restaurants in North Fulton, all offering unique cuisine, including Mercantile Social, Flatlands Bourbon and Bayou and Southern Porch in Alpharetta. Last June, the group acquired CANS Taqueria in Milton. Despite the prior success of these eateries, 2020 brought a wave of struggles and concerns for the restaurant group. But a little over a year after they were forced to close their doors, the restaurants are beginning to see pre-COVID sales figures. In a year that saw a slew of restaurants permanently shut down, the Chieco group is crediting local support and changes to their operations for keeping their four businesses afloat. Jodi Chieco said without the support of the community, their businesses, servers and family would not have been as successful during the pandemic. From generous tipping to buying gift cards, the community “rallied” for the Chieco family and their local eateries. “[The community] has been our biggest cheerleaders…it’s been humbling,” Jodi said. “They never faltered. We couldn’t ask for better customers. They kept us going.” Kevin Jeskey, regular customer of CANS, said he frequents the familyowned restaurants. Jeskey finds it very significant to support the local restaurants in North Fulton.

“It’s the upmost importance, as we’ve seen through COVID, [to support local business],” Jeskey said. “We tried to get out twice a week to support local restaurants.” Joe Rampino, general manager of Mercantile Social, said there was “overwhelming support,” even when the restaurant had to close due to the pandemic. While the dining room was closed, restaurant employees refurbished and decorated for their projected opening in the summer of 2020. The restaurant now offers outdoor seating. Rampino said being a part of a family business is what makes it possible for them to succeed and come together. “We all work together as a team,” Rampino said. “It really helps to have that support system and take care of each other,” Rampino said. “It is good to have good people to work for...it’s a whole different dynamic.” CANS Taqueria general manager Danny Shearer said the restaurant took the opportunity to use curbside pick-up and delivery services like DoorDash and

GrubHub to help keep the lights on. As business picks back up, the Chieco family is undertaking a new venture. The family is transforming CANS, located in downtown Crabapple, into a fresh seafood restaurant named Tierra y Mar, meaning “land and sea.” Tierra y Mar is set for a grand opening in April, Shearer said. Local support helped keep the group’s restaurants open, and Shearer said the family is now planning to give back to the community by working alongside charitable events. Shearer said in mid-June the group intends to collaborate with the Shamrock Foundation. Last December, the restaurant group donated to the Milton Rotary Club and hosted a “Giving Tree.” Supporters donated over $2,000, and CANS matching those dollars with its own donation. The money that was raised benefited the Drake House, which provides housing and education programs for homeless single mothers in the North Metro Atlanta.

Boost Your Curb Appeal The first impression of your home is extremely important because, to entice buyers’ attention, it must appear inviting and well-maintained. Boosting your home’s curb appeal does not have to be complicated – even completing simple tasks such as sweeping porches and walkways and washing off siding and doors can make a huge impact. Also, if you have time, a fresh coat of paint can go a long way in brightening your home’s exterior. De-Clutter Living Spaces When buyers enter your home, they have high expectations for its visual presentation and organization. By following tips from professional organizers such as Marie Kondo, HGTV personalities or any of our professional REALTORS®, little changes will create a lasting impact on the overall appear-

ance of your home. Simple de-cluttering tricks include removing and storing family photos, clearing off surfaces so only about one-third of the space is covered and concealing extra clothing items such as shoes, boots and coats. Improve Your Landscaping With the arrival of warmer weather, your yard will need some additional upkeep to restore its beauty after the cold winter months! Our REALTORS® with Atlanta Fine Homes Sotheby’s International Realty have connections with top local landscaping companies to assist you, or you can tackle this yourself by sodding and re-seeding your grass, planting new flowers and trees, trimming bushes and removing any dead plants. Take Spring Cleaning to a New Level This is another home task that can be completed by you or a professional team, but your home should be absolutely spotless before any property photography or open houses occur. A deep spring clean is more than just decluttering, you will also need to wipe down baseboards and cabinets, dust ceiling fans and blinds, de-grease your kitchen, wash windows and potentially

power wash your home’s exterior and driveway. Buyers will undoubtedly notice your home’s level of cleanliness or lack thereof! Hire Industry Professionals In a fast-paced market, it is even more vital to make sure you have the best real estate professionals serving you. By working with one of our REALTORS®, you are receiving the best global and local advertising, marketing collateral, white-glove service and real estate brand available. As the No. 1 brokerage in Metro Atlanta, Atlanta Fine Homes Sotheby’s International Realty has the resources to provide unparalleled videography and photography, virtual staging, 3D Matterport scans, social media exposure and more! By abiding by these professional tips, your home will be ready and equipped for the spring market.

CRAIG-BURKE

Last year demonstrated that many of us can successfully work from home, so much so that many will continue to work remotely even after the world looks a little more normal. This realization has opened up more opportunities for us to decide not only where we work, but also live and play. Home buyers are now thinking more about buying a home where they can conveniently do all three!

Welcome to Lake Oconee Lake Oconee – referred to by insiders as “LO” checks all three “live, work, play” boxes, and provides countless other benefits as well.

With eight area golf courses in five gated communities with different membership levels, there are abundant choices, including six courses in the communities of Reynolds Great Waters, The Landing and Reynolds Lake Oconee. Additionally, there are the communities of Cuscowilla and Harbor Club each with one course.

Passover observances balance tradition with safety By JEFFREY ALBERTSON newsroom@appenmedia.com DUNWOODY, Ga. — The pandemic shuttered synagogues last year and left families scrambling to balance traditions with health. With new expanded vaccine eligibility, some Passover seders may be held in-person with minimal risk. Passover is a weeklong Jewish holiday commemorating the exodus of the ancient Hebrews from slavery in Egypt. The holiday is marked with a feast called a seder, which may last several hours depending on family tradition and religious observance. Through several iterations of storytelling and symbolic food, the story of the Jewish exodus is read from a Haggadah. The holiday this year began March 27 at sunset. Tradition poses a question during the seder: Why is this night different from all other nights? Given the first glimpse of a COVID-19 surge a year ago this month, this question continues to take on new meaning. The seder plate has several key ingredients to help visualize the story. A shank bone symbolizes the lamb’s blood painted over doorposts to shelter from the tenth plague. Charoset, a blended mixture of fruits, nuts, wine and spices is a reminder of the mortar used to build Egyptian cities. Bitter herbs and salt water represent the bitterness of slavery, while parsley greens call attention to an approaching spring season. A hardboiled egg is a Solution reminder of previous burnt offerings. H A R T E W E R M E N U D O M P E S S E P A C T O U R S C A N E P E B O A G O F L O P A U K S R E S T

Also present is an abundance of matzah, the unleavened bread acknowledging the haste to which the exodus happened. An extra cup of wine is poured as an invitation to welcome strangers. A year now into the pandemic, families are still contemplating the best way to observe Passover, whether in-person or virtually again. “More Jews celebrate Passover than any other Jewish holiday, so this is one where people are really accustomed to celebrating in their own homes or going to somebody’s house, and it’s part of the custom to host strangers for dinner,” Senior Rabbi Spike Anderson at Temple Emanu-El in Sandy Springs said. “Last year, the unknowns were really dark and scary, and this year (they) seem to be much more optimistic and positive.” Temple Emanu-El scheduled a themed virtual Seder on March 28th, the second night of Passover, focusing on moral responsibility and societal injustices. The first and second nights were held online last year. Dunwoody-based Marcus Jewish Community Center of Atlanta (MJCCA) re-opened in June with added safety protocols and held virtual seders on March 27 & 28 led by Rabbi Brian Glusman. The virtual seder held last year was the first in the organization’s history. “Last year, given people’s need to connect spiritually, I made the decision to host two virtual Seders that were well attended,” Rabbi Glusman said. For the most enjoyable experience and reduced interruption, he recommends tuning the television, laptop or device

to the webcast and following along. Using online platforms continue to pose challenges, especially keeping a large audience muted. Family gatherings have taken on an entirely new meaning this year. “Last year we devoted our energy at the seder to our friends and family that might have been on their own and (were struggling),” Jill Wheatley of Sandy Springs said. That tradition will continue this year in-person following her parents’ vaccination. Wheatley and her spouse Jason, have each received the first of two shots. Congregation Ariel, also in Dunwoody, hosted in-person services with social distancing and mask requirements. All classes were moved online last year as the pandemic spread, but Shabbat services continued to be held in-person with reduced attendance. Rabbi Binyomin Friedman from Congregation Ariel said, “Last year for the first time in my life I did not attend a synagogue. This year we are going to be open (and) that is the biggest difference you can imagine.” He said he anticipated a tremendous outpouring of emotion because “a lot of things you take for granted could go away and they did.” Sandy Springs resident Julie Mokotoff said Passover is a celebration of freedom. “Last year and this year, our holiday will feel different, as it is not yet safe to come together with our family,” she said. “Despite this setback, it is important to tell the story of our freedom and to rejoice in our independence.”

regular as it was, but just internally so excited and relieved,” Wagner said. The Alpharetta site at North Point is the closest government-run site to Johns Creek. The city has received few complaints about the site and those were addressed, Johns Creek Mayor Mike Bodker said. “If you look at Fulton County as a whole, the number of people that have gotten vaccinated within Fulton County is

Scheduling an appointment As eligibility has expanded, demand and volume are significantly increasing.

Alpharetta to add video tool for emergency responses System allows businesses to link cameras to police By PATRICK FOX pat@appenmediagroup.com ALPHARETTA, Ga. — Alpharetta Public Safety is set to add another tool to its crime detection menu. The department will launch a new video monitoring system that can tie into cameras operating in private businesses and organizations. The software, designed by Peachtree Corners-based Fusus, allows police to interface with whatever video monitoring system a company uses. Images from the company are then fed live to police. The city will pay $25,000 annually for the service. Alpharetta Public Safety Director John Robison said the city already has a number of cameras it uses to monitor traffic and school zones. Fusus allows the business community the option of sharing their live or recorded information with police and fire. “They choose whether they want to be a part of this or not,” Robison said. He said one private school has already signed up for the equipment to tie in with the city’s network. Businesses can purchase their own equipment for approximately $600 that will link to the system. Robison said the city is not monitoring cameras 24 hours a day, but if dispatch receives an emergency call about an incident at a participating business, the company or school can activate the feed to allow police to monitor whatever cameras are linked. The business or school, he said, can choose which cameras it wants to share. In the case of an active shooter, the system might

allow police to see where the person is holed up or where innocent civilians have taken refuge, Robison said. The chief said he is working with the city attorney and staff to draft a policy on how the system is operated. He said Fusus will be consulted in the application, but it will not set the policy. “We will only use it [in cases of] a crime in progress or potentially after a crime has taken place,” Robison said. “But, we will not be viewing or monitoring people all the time.” He added that the system may be used at large events, like Taste of Alpharetta, where thousands of people fill the streets, and traffic and pedestrian safety can overwhelm standard police resources. The issue has raised some concerns with City Councilman Ben Burnett, who said he has reservations about government monitoring the actions of private citizens. He said he doesn’t think the city has given residents enough of a heads-up about the system, and because its costs are low, the City Council was not required to vote on the purchase. I don’t object to a business giving the city access or opting in,” Burnett said. “I do object to the public right of way being used to surveil tens of thousands of people who aren’t doing anything illegal or immoral.” Nevertheless, City Councilman John Hipes, who serves as liaison to Public Safety, said the system was introduced at the council retreat in January — a meeting that was not live streamed to residents — and was part of discussions at two public City Council meetings in February as part of mid-year budget amendments. Those amendments passed the council on a vote of 6-1 with Burnett casting the lone dissent. Hipes said he thinks the system will increase the quality of life for residents by aiding public safety.

Alpharetta Public Safety Director John Robison said the Fusus monitoring system will help police and fire respond to emergencies with more information in hand.

“It makes the city safer, it makes the police safer,” Hipes said. “It helps make our police officers more efficient.” Mayor Jim Gilvin said he also supports the plan, because it provides the city with a new technology that can improve safety of residents. He said he has no concerns about privacy. “It’s a private property owner,” Gilvin said. “They want access to these systems, and we’re simply making it available, so that if they need it, they can call us and activate it.”

Dictionary entry ‘supposably’ making people mad Earlier this month, Dictionary.com added over 400 words to its online database, and at least one of those entries caused a stink among social media users, along with everything to ever take place in JOE PARKER the observable uniEditor verse. joe@appenmedia.com The entry that poked the proverbial bear was “supposably,” a mispronunciation of “supposedly.” Many argued the move was catering to the ignorant who mispronounce words or phrases. And though I cringe every time someone says “supposably” when they mean supposedly, I’m not offended by the update. Mainly because

dictionaries merely catalogue words already used in common parlance, and dictionary.com is for people who struggle to spell words like “catalogue.” I make my living through the English language — mainly because my Spanish language skills only include foods and incredibly inappropriate phrases thanks to working as a professional cook for a decade — and it evolves over time. For instance, if someone told you they love listening to heavy metal 100 years ago, you’d wonder how anyone could enjoy the sound of lead pipes being banged together. Now, of course, we know that heavy metal is a type of music created for people who have punched holes in their home’s drywall. And it sounds similar to lead pipes being banged together. But if dictionary.com is going to

start altering definitions in response to mispronunciations or misuse, I’ve decided to create a few of my own submissions that run along the lines of “supposably.” Pacifically (adverb) — a way that is exact and clear, or for a particular purpose, not to be confused with how a ship traveled from California to Japan. “I pacifically told him I needed those files by Friday even though by me using that word I clearly won’t be able to read them since I don’t have a grasp on the English language. Literally (adverb) — figuratively (in common usage) “I went to the store and they were literally out of milk, there were only about 15 or 20 gallons left.” Nucular (adjective, noun) — relating to atomic weapons or energy, or relating to a nucleus. Or, at least that’s the intent. “‘Nucular’ would be more accurate if it were used to describe the shade of orange on food products labeled ‘Cheeze,’ not a type of weapon.” Artisanal (adjective) — Formerly; Made by skilled crafters, usually in small quantities or by using traditional methods. Updated definition; a marketing term that means the exact opposite of those things. “This nationwide food company is labeling this bread as ‘artisanal’ even though it is made completely by automation and only differs from their other breads because it has some oats on the outer portion of the loaf.” Spaghetti (noun) — A long, thin

pasta used by many to describe every shape and type of pasta in existence. “For the love of God, please stop calling that spaghetti, it is clearly penne, why do so many people do this!?” The former quote can be attributed to this author. Pre-Madonna (noun) — Intended use; a mispronunciation of prima donna — the chief singer in an opera company, or a vain person who does not well with others. What it sounds like; The time period encompassing the beginning of human existence until the 1983 release of Madonna’s self-titled debut album. “Many English speakers did not know how to properly pronounce ‘La Isla Bonita’ in Pre-Madonna times.” Take (something) for granite (idiom) — Intended use; taking something for granted. What it sounds like; Using something in place of a specific type of igneous rock. “Grant won’t take for granite the deal we got on our granite countertops, granted, the install period was extensive because we didn’t want to take the quartz for granite.” I’m not alone, supposably, in wincing when certain words or phrases are mispronounced or misused. So, if you had to submit some to dictionary.com, what would they be? Email me at joe@appenmedia. com so we can cringe together, and I’ll feature my favorite submissions in an upcoming column.

Man’s lip bitten off during spat at rec center ALPHARETTA, Ga. — Police were dispatched after a fight broke out at a Main Event along Davis Drive on March 21.
