City rethinks bike lanes along Mount Vernon Road By CONNER EVANS newsroom@appenmediagroup.com DUNWOODY, Ga. — Dunwoody is changing its bike lane plans along Mount Vernon Road and Tilly Mill Road after reexamining the area. Dunwoody Public Works Director Michael Smith presented the new concept to the Dunwoody City Council on Aug. 12, explaining that there is a lower density of driveways and side streets to Mount Vernon Road between Tilly Mill Road and Mount Vernon Place. This makes the road more conducive to implementing a 12-foot wide multi-use path, Smith said. In 2017, concept designs for intersection improvement at Tilly Mill and Mount Vernon Place and Mount Vernon Road were presented to the council. “The concept for Mt Vernon Place was to straighten that roadway to make it come in at more of a right angle with Tilly Mill to reduce some of the confusion at that intersection,” Smith said. There was a concept to add left turn lanes at Tilly Mill and adjacent neighborhoods, he said, as well as bike lanes and sidewalks from Mount Vernon Place to Cedar Chase. But the Public Works Department has been reviewing the city’s bicycle network, and there may be more interest in multi-use paths, protected from vehicle traffic, rather than on-street bike lanes, he said. Councilman Tom Lambert attended a summit on pedestrian and bike plan-
IT’S TIME
FOR YOU TO HAVE THE HOME YOU DESERVE
ning in March, he said, and he learned that many cities have a master plan for trails separate from their transportation master plan. He said this may best suit Dunwoody as well. “Right now ours falls within the transportation master plan,” Lambert said. “My fear is sometimes it gets a little lost in there.” Smith said that if the city plans to move forward with the path concept on this project, it would need to plan on extending that path down to Vermack, so it would connect to an intersection with traffic signals. The multi-use path would cost $10,000 more than original estimates for the bike lanes plan, according to a memo sent to the City Council. The total cost for the multi-use path is $170,000, and there is currently $300,000 available for this project’s final design and any additional roadway acquisition. The new plan was also shopped to the Bradford Place and Wellesley neighborhoods. Smith said the main concerns he heard from residents was power lines being affected by the construction and the potential loss of trees. But Smith said he had confirmation from Georgia Power that moving the power lines to the opposite side of the street would not be a problem. There should be minimal loss of trees, since the roads are wide enough to accommodate these paths by removing what would have been bike lanes, he said.

Residents of Bradford Place and the Wellesley neighborhood express concern to the Dunwoody Public Works director over a new multi-use path concept that would move power lines. Mayor Denis Shortal supported the new concept, speaking from his own experience using on-street lanes. “We didn’t have the money and I know that,” Shortal said. “But if I think back, and we had to do it all over again, I think multi-use paths might have been the way to go.” The mayor said he had met with GDOT officials, and they told him that there were plans to connect multi-use
paths throughout the North Atlanta region. It is not connected now because of the Top End Express Lanes plan, he said. There is a plan similar to what Lambert proposed expected to be presented to the Atlanta Regional Commission in the next 90 days as well, Shortal said. The council voted 7-0 to implement the new concept along this section of Mount Vernon and Tilly Mill roads.

The person signed a two-year installment agreement for three iPhone devices. She received a previous notice that her identity had been compromised a few months earlier. The installment plan was not approved because of an issue confirming the proper identity. All paperwork concerning the identity theft was placed into police files for evidence.

Company loses hundreds to electricity bill scam ALPHARETTA, Ga. — A woman called police Aug. 9 after she sent $300 to a scammer in the false belief she had paid an electric bill. The woman, an employee at State Farm on Old Alabama Connector Road, received a call that day from someone claiming to be a representative from Georgia Power. The caller said they had not received payment for July’s bill, adding that the woman needed to pay immediately or the power would be shut off. The woman went to a local CVS to buy a $300 Money Pak card and gave the caller the code. The caller then said the woman needed to pay another $400. Another employee overheard the conversation and told the woman it was a scam before she could pay additional funds. She hung up and called police.

Corrections/ clarifications The article “Dunwoody explores plan to revoke contract with DeKalb Schools” in the Aug. 15 Crier contained several errors. The article misstated the start of school as Aug. 8. Classes began Aug. 5. Also, the article states that one trailer at Dunwoody High School and one at Dunwoody Elementary were not ready for the first day of class. In fact, several trailers were not ready for the first day of class. The article should have stated that one trailer at the high school and one at the elementary had not received their certificates of occupancy at the end of the first week of school on Aug. 9. For clarity, the land disturbance permit was not obtained before cutting down trees and installing the trailers at Dunwoody High School. The permit needed to be approved before installation and before trees were cut down, so this is what prompted the city to issue a stop work order. The trailers were incorrectly placed, but that was not the sole reason for the stop work order.

Local boys’ band to play at Food Truck Night By CARSON COOK carson@appenmediagroup.com DUNWOODY, Ga. — Teens who turn out to Dunwoody Food Truck Thursdays this week may see some familiar faces up on stage. Friction, a band made up of four local high schoolers, will be playing the event. Friction includes Carson Wolff on bass, Zach Friedman on drums, Jackson Crim as lead guitarist and Sammy Effron on vocals and rhythm guitar. Friction mostly plays ’70s and ’80s classic rock, they said. Fans will hear hits like “Hold the Line” by Toto, “Sweet Child O’ Mine” by Guns N’ Roses and “Jump” by Van Halen. The four boys met when they were students at Davis Academy and have been playing as a band for two years. “We were all in [music] class together, and we all knew that each other played certain instruments,” Friedman said. “We had all wanted to be in a band.” The band cut their teeth playing Bar Mitzvas and weddings, and recently won the Dunwoody Battle of the Bands and performed in the showcase position at Dunwoody Lemonade days. “It’s fun to do what we love to do and make other people happy,” Effron said. The group also plays for charity

The group said playing together has helped them stay friends as they graduated from Davis and started at separate high schools. The band also supported their drummer, Effron, after he was in a serious car accident. “The band was there by his side,” said Marc Effron, Sammy’s father. “It
really helped his recovery to know that he wanted to get back to the band and continue to play with them.” Friction’s future gigs include Food Truck Night at Brook Run Park on Thursday, Aug. 29. The band has also been selected to play at the Dunwoody Recreation Winter Wonderland Festival in December. To hear some samples of the band, visit bit.ly/2z7h4fF.

OPINION
529 college planning strategies Qualified tuition programs, 529 College Savings Plans, were created in 1996 as part of the Small Business Jobs Protection Act. The goal encouraging Lewis J. Walker, CFP is tax-incentivized savings for future college expenses of a designated beneficiary. The plans are popular with parents and grandparents, particularly as a meaningful baby gift to celebrate a newborn’s arrival. The 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act expanded uses for 529 Plans. K-12 public, private and religious school tuition was added as a qualified expense. Families may apply up to $10,000 in annual taxfree plan withdrawals to cover elementary and high school tuition. If you do so, the remaining balance will continue to potentially grow and compound ahead of college and/or graduate school costs. Incentive for saving for education is an admirable idea. But government planning often distorts markets. Make more money broadly available for the purchase of any good or service, and prices generally rise along with demand. Over the last decade, published in-state tuition and fees at public four-year colleges increased at an average rate of 3.1 percent per year in excess of inflation. Private non-public costs rose 2.3 percent over inflation for the same period. The Higher Education Opportunity Act of 2008 made it easier to obtain a government backed loan to finance rising costs.
Government guarantees take lenders off the hook for bad loans. Student loans are made irrespective of credit history, of which most students have little. Outstanding student loan debt has ballooned to over $1.4 trillion, and taxpayers are on the hook for an exploding default rate. An article by Dr. Mark Fisher, “Atlanta Jewish Times” (6/14/19), is instructive regarding college supply/demand curves, noting the “Admit Rate Percent” for select colleges targeted by Atlanta students for fall, 2019, admission. For example, the acceptance rate at Boston U. was 18 percent; Brown, 7 percent; Duke, 7 percent; Emory, 15 percent; Harvard, 4.5 percent; Northwestern, 9 percent; Vanderbilt, 8 percent; Yale, 6% percent. With that level of demand, don’t expect prices to decline! What do students (parents) actually pay? Rarely published prices and often less than half that. Per Collegeboard.org, for the 2018-19 year, full-time, in-state students at public four-year colleges covered an average of roughly $14,900 in tuition, fees and room and board after grant aid, plus books, supplies and other living expenses. For private colleges the tab was $27,300 per year, often with higher travel and activity fees. Should you take advantage of the new flexibility to cover some pre-K expenses, especially for costly private schools? The answer depends on family circumstances. If a major breadwinner has a career reverse, layoff or expensive health circumstance, one may welcome the opportunity to pull funds for tuition. But if you can take advantage of potential compounding and the time value of money, and junior and/or Suzie is defi-
nite college or graduate school material, you might leave balances to grow. We have experienced a phenomenal bull market run, and you may wonder when it will end. The informed answer is, “No one knows for sure.” But if you want to take some risk off of the table, “risk” defined as measures of volatility, most 529 portfolio menus have a variety of options. For example, one major 529 manager offers a portfolio for students with 4-7 years until enrollment that is 48.50 percent U.S. and global equities, and 51.50 percent fixed income. For those with 0-3 years before enrollment, the portfolio is more defensive, 25.75 percent equities, 74.25 percent fixed income. For those entering college or now in school, 80 percent fixed income, only 20 percent equities. For students with longer horizons there’s a 100 percent diversified domestic and international stock portfolio. There is a 100 percent money market option and a 100 percent short-term bond option. Your financial adviser can help sort out the strategy best for you depending on circumstances, expecta-
tions, or concerns. College planning is about more than money. As Dr. Fisher indicated, your life will not “be ruined if you don’t go to an Ivy.” Says he, “The typical students...are not aware of the many other top colleges that exist.” What you do with your one lifetime is a function of God-given talents, your instinctive approach to handling challenge and problem solving. What lights your fire? What do you do naturally when left alone? What are you doing that gets your full attention to the point you lose track of time? Answers to these questions are clues to success and the path to be followed! Lewis Walker, CFP®, is a financial life planning strategist at Capital Insight Group; 770-441-3553;lewis@lewwalker. com.

as we biked from one country inn to another for a week. My husband and I have taken our bicycles on trips to the beach and the mountains, and we’ve taken bike trips in France and a bike and sail trip in Greece. I wouldn’t say we’re fanatics; we just enjoy bicycling as a different way to explore. I like to say we have a herd of bikes in our garage that we keep fed and watered for cycling the Greenway and the Silver Comet Trail. We’ve occasionally cycled around Dunwoody, but we carefully map our route and ride exclusively on Sunday mornings to avoid traffic. We’ve even stored a pair of bikes at my sister’s condo in St. Simons for when we visit there. Though we cycle less frequently these days, we’d love to get back to it as a regular pastime. The article ends with this statement: “When kids ride bikes, good things happen,” I wonder, then, what will happen when fewer and fewer kids do?
Do kids still ride bikes? Did you ride a bike as a child? Have you ridden as an adult? I’ve done both and was dismayed to see an article about fewer children riding bicycles. “The number of children ages 6 to KATHY 17 who rode bicycles MANOS PENN regularly — more than 25 times a year — decreased by more than a million from 2014 t0 2018” according to the article. It’s sad to me that today’s kids are missing out on the joy of bicycling, and sadder still that the main culprit is seen as an average of “more than seven hours a day” screen time among kids “ages 8 to 18.” I wonder whether the lack of bikable neighborhood roads also has an impact. It must have been meant to be that just a few days before I saw the article, I heard Dunwoody’s Pattie Baker speak about her book “Traveling at the Speed of Bike.” She’s a freelance writer, a tour creator and guide for Bicycle Tours of Atlanta and a certified League of American Bicyclist’s cycling instructor.
She started by asking us to close our eyes, and then she rang her bicycle bell. We all smiled at the sound. We shared our memories, and she shared her bikeriding experiences around Dunwoody and Atlanta. While I’m not anywhere near as passionate about riding bikes as Pattie, I do enjoy it. If you had a childhood love affair with cycling and want to renew that feeling, check out her book and her website travelingatthespeedofbike.com. When I read Pattie’s book, it brought back memories of my father removing the training wheels from my bike, running along beside me, and pushing me on my bike on a sidewalk in Queens. I recalled riding my bicycle in my Long Island neighborhood when I was older. Years later, I got my first bike as an adult, a six-gear cruiser to ride in Virginia-Highlands. I progressed to a mountain bike and enjoyed riding in Piedmont Park and up and down city streets on the weekends when there was no traffic. On summer evenings, I’d meet my friend Beverly midway between her home in Decatur and mine, and we’d cycle neighborhood streets. We girls took our first cycling vaca-
tion with Vermont Bicycle Tours and took several more trips around the U.S. We’d fly into a city like Boston or Seattle or Green Bay, rent a car to travel to wherever the tour started, meet our guides and our group, and have a ball

What I’ve learned (in movies) from Appen By CONNER EVANS newsroom@appenmediagroup.com This is my last week at Appen Media this summer. I’ve spent two summers here, gaining experience, meeting great people and getting my own podcast (check out The Re-readables!) Some of my favorite memories here are the times when our office would break from the news to talk about other stuff, especially movies. My coworkers enjoyed giving me older movie suggestions, because I was the youngest person in the office. We even had a week where Pat Fox, our managing editor, Carson Cook, our Johns Creek reporter, and I spent an unnecessary amount of time making lists of our favorite movies. So, here are my three favorite recommendations from each of my cinephile coworkers, and what they told me about these people and me. Daniel Milana: “Dazed and Confused” Daniel, our former podcast producer, recommended I watch “Dazed and Confused,” which we agree is one of the best high school movies ever made. It’s a movie set in the ’70s, made in the ’90s that speaks to Daniel, almost 30, and me, not yet 21. There are a lot of high school movies for every generation, but few that can feel personal to all those different generations. Even though “Dazed” is set in 1976, it felt like one of the more modern depictions of how different groups of students interact in high school. Everyone knows everyone in this small Texas town, Matthew McConaughey is hanging around everywhere and cliques aren’t strictly demarcated.
inability to match her poptimism at the movies. I was also bad at taking her suggestions, forcing her to lend me her DVD of “Roman Holiday.” “Roman Holiday” is quite good, better than I expected. It’s a classic Hollywood romantic comedy, and the couple doesn’t even live happily ever after. Audrey Hepburn and Gregory Peck just have a brief interlude together, interrupting her life as royalty and his life as a reporter. Of course, he falls in love, and, maybe, so does she, but they still have to resume their lives. Pat Fox: “The French Connection” More than anything, it’s a charming When I told Pat that I had finally movie, and most of Carson’s favorites watched this Gene Hackman classic, the list was filled with self-described charm. first thing he said to me was basically, “That is a freaking crazy movie,” with the And, perhaps what “Roman Holiday” showed me is that I undervalue charm. biggest smile I saw on his face all sumMy obsession with how movies and mer. The visceral reaction that both Pat music are received critically often causes and I get from watching Hackman blare Carson to jokingly label me an “elitist” or his horn and chase down a train for 10 a “snob.” minutes straight on screen brought us I feel these titles are unfair, but her closer together. point stands that perhaps sometimes In that moment, I understood Pat a Dunwoody Crier really 8/22/19 I don’t hold in high enough regard the little better. Pat doesn’t likeCrossword “Star films that just make me feel warm and Wars” or John Williams or things made accepted and full. in the 21st century. He talks affectionately about the transformation of actors This summer, I was filled with high over the course of a movie, lengthy school nostalgia and thrilled by car World War II dramas, under-appreciated chases and ultimately won over by these slow-burns. But we both enjoy “The Solution movies and by these people. French Connection” on the same level as a 12-year-old boy watching stuff blow up in space, which is, “Wow, Hackman L I S T D E V O U R is a lunatic in this movie, and I’m here C A N O E D A V E R T E D for every second of it.” It creates a type of nostalgia for a time when the next day didn’t matter. I’ll never drive a station wagon with wood paneling, but it makes me miss a time when every event felt bigger and more impactful than the last, even the ones I’ve already forgotten. It binds generations, because high schoolers will never stop being anxious about their futures, while living only for the present and being lost in reminiscing last weekend’s adventures.
Carson Cook: “Roman Holiday” Carson probably gives me the hardest time of anyone in the office, particularly about how I watch movies and which ones I choose to watch. She’s ribbed me for my fascination with a few foreign films this summer and my

Let’s talk aging and bladder control While it is normal to feel uncomfortable or embarrassed discussing bladder issues such as incontinence, it is important to understand just how common these problems are for aging women. The involuntary loss or leaking of urine is a common syndrome that affects at least 1 in 3 older women, according to the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA). Symptoms may range from minor issues such as slight bladder leaks to the need for the protection of an adult diaper to prevent the complete and sudden loss of bladder control. Chief of Surgery for Emory University Hospital and Division Director for Female Pelvic Medicine and Reconstructive Surgery, Gina Northington, MD, PhD informs her patients that while common, “Bladder leakage is NOT normal aging. There are often functional problems of the nerves and muscles within the pelvic floor that can be treated to improve bladder control.” Sana Ansari, MD who treats patients
at both Emory Johns Creek Hospital and Emory Saint Joseph’s Hospital agrees, “No matter the severity of the urinary incontinence, if the incontinence is affecting your life and relationships in any way, then it’s time to take control and do something more about it.” Knowing the various types of urinary incontinence can help you have a discussion with your doctor and ultimately identify the appropriate treatment plan for you: • Stress incontinence: leaking of urine when laughing, coughing, or lifting, which is usually caused by weakened pelvic muscles. • Urgency incontinence: the sudden need to urinate that results in large amounts of urine leaking out before getting to the bathroom. • Overflow incontinence: when urine leaks because the bladder has become overly full or doesn't empty all the way. • Functional incontinence: the natural urge to urinate, but taking too long to get

to the bathroom - this can be especially common for those living with arthritis or another type of physical disability. • Mixed incontinence: having a combination of any of the above types of urinary incontinence – this is very common in aging and older women.

When planning your appointment with our urogynecologists here are some tips to help you make the most of your appointment: • Be prepared by having a list of the prescription drugs, over-the-counter medicines, vitamins you take, and a list
of your past and current illnesses or injuries. • Bring a caregiver, friend, or relative to go with you to the doctor. They can help bring up topics or questions you may forget to ask. These support persons can also remind you of things the health care provider said after you leave your appointment. • Be candid. Your provider wants to know everything you're experiencing. Feel free to discuss your symptoms and how they are impacting your daily life. Please make an appointment with one of our Female Pelvic Medicine and Reconstructive Surgery providers to discuss your bladder treatment options today.

Q+A
SPORTS
St. Pius X senior gives back with work at Ronald McDonald House By Luke Winstel For The Crier St. Pius X Catholic High School senior Brian Matthews has served as a volunteer for the Ronald McDonald House Charities since he was 13. He currently serves on the Teen Board, consisting of 25 high school kids across Atlanta selected by Atlanta Ronald McDonald House board members. We spoke with Matthews to discuss his role as a board member, experience at the Ronald McDonald Houses and phenomenal volunteer work over the past several years. Q: How did you get involved with the Atlanta Ronald McDonald House Charity? A: I got involved with the charity once I was old enough to understand what the mission of the charity was. My father has been active in the charity over the years, and one day I decided to tag along with him at a stop at the Peachtree Dunwoody House. When I went into the house that first day, I wondered where everyone was, not realizing that the families were at the hospital getting treatment. Having attended Catholic schools all my life, where helping others is a tenant of the faith, I spent some time pondering what I could do to help. I was only 13 at the time, so I couldn’t volunteer at the houses by myself. I reached out to Carrie Bowden, the marketing director of the charity, and asked her what type of items the houses needed since 100 percent of everything is donated. It dawned on me that by living in a huge subdivision with over 450 homes, I could create a collection drive for the houses requesting the much-needed items. On the Ronald McDonald House website (armhc.org), they post a “wish-list” of items that are in high demand for families staying at the house, so I took some of those items and created a flyer in PowerPoint. I began the first of what would become an annual event, determining that Thanksgiving was the best time of year to do this. I walked the neighborhood with the flyers that I intentionally put on bright stock paper so that people couldn’t miss them on their mailboxes. A week later, I had my parents drive me around to pick up the items. The first drive was so successful….it was incredible how many bags and boxes of goods were in driveways with my flyer attached. I collected far more items than I thought would ever be possible. After I collected the items, I categorized them as best as possible to make it easier once I delivered them to the houses. So, each of those drives over the last four years have taken numerous hours because there is a lot to do from start to finish. I will do
my 5th annual collection drive this coming November. Additionally, each year I volunteer at the annual golf outing. My duties at the golf events include delivering lunches, water/soft drinks, handing out goodie bags to the participants and just helping wherever help is needed. Q: What is your role as a member of the teen board? A: The Teen Board meets once per quarter at one of the two houses in Atlanta. The main tasks of the council are to create awareness in the community, at their respective schools, and to fundraise. This past year, each board member was asked to find ways to raise $500 for the charity. I exceeded that $500 goal by doing extra chores around my house, helping my neighbors and asking friends and family for donations. Some other tasks for board members include various forms of service at the houses. These tasks can range from serving meals, making sure areas are wiped down and cleaned up, organizing the pantry or doing whatever the house needs. Q: I saw you’re involved with the annual charity raffle. What is the raffle for and what is your role in the raffle? How long have you been involved with the raffle? A: Over the years of my involvement I have attended Saturday morning meetings at various BMW dealerships with my father to explain the program to all employees. I don’t have a large role in the raffle, but my parents are very involved with it. Our family was the first in Atlanta to get the wrapped BMW Z4. We had it for a week and our family sold 26 tickets in that week, which is a lot, as the tickets are $100 each. The raffle itself is the charities’ most profitable fundraiser of the year. This is the 12th year for the BMW Raffle and, over the years, it has raised $1.8 million net. All the proceeds stay in Atlanta to help with day-to-day operations of the two houses. The brandnew BMW is 100 percent donated by the six Atlanta area BMW dealers. It is a great way for the local dealers to “give back” to the local charity. People can purchase a raffle ticket at https://armhc. org/bmwraffle/ or winabmw.com. ARMH will be building a new house on the new CHOA campus (I-85/North Druid Hills), so donations and awareness are key. Q: Is there anything else you would like to mention? A: I want to encourage anyone who is thinking about volunteering at the ARMH to go for it. It is such a special charity and volunteering will make you realize how fortunate you truly are.

HIES volleyball roster young but talented By Dunn Neugebauer For the Crier Don’t let the fact that the 2019 Holy Innocents’ volleyball roster doesn’t have any seniors on it fool you. After all, what they do have are seven experienced juniors and a team that won the region last year before advancing to the Elite 8, where they gave eventual state champs, Mt. Paran, all it could handle in a four-set match at home. “It’s nice when your top seven played all year around,” coach Taylor Noland said. “That’s a nice plus; it means we’re bringing back a lot of experience and a lot of starters.” The Bears graduated three from last year’s team; this time around, Noland will carry 12 on her roster. Besides the juniors, she will have three sophomores and two freshmen looking to earn playing time. Starting with the juniors, both Ellen Goetz and Maddie Whitaker earned All-Region honors last season. Goetz returns as the starting setter, while Whitaker is expected to be solid again at the libero slot. As far as hitters, Paige Collins is one of the best in the business in the area, while Renee Davis is back as a middle blocker. Caitlyn Surdykowski
returns and also could be used at middle blocker. Mary Anna Wearing (hitter) and Caroline Harper (defensive specialist) also add to the depth and talent on the roster. Looking at the schedule, Noland traditionally plays some tough regular season opponents and this year is no exception. Last weekend, the Bears hosted the Class A/AA Play Date, which featured the top programs in the state. Hebron Christian, Eagles Landing Christian Academy, Savannah Country Day and Calvary Day Baptist provided just some of the competition in the 12-team event. As for region play, HI will travel to rival Wesleyan, a team they beat last year to win the region championship. Wesleyan and Mt. Vernon are again expected to provide good challenges when the dates approach. Noland’s bunch will also host rival Lovett, a solid Class AAA team, and will travel to Mt. Paran in October for a rematch of last year’s quarterfinal. They opened Aug. 15 at Mt. Pisgah. The Bears are expected to remain among the state’s elite. Noland & Company brought home three consecutive state titles in 2013, 2014, and 2015 and have remained a force to be reckoned with since.
