Customer confuses clerk in electronics purchase CUMMING, Ga. — A deputy responded to a reported theft April 6 at the Walmart on Browns Ridge Road. The store’s loss prevention officer said a man took three iPads and an HP laptop from the Electronics Department stating that he wished to pay cash for the items, valued at $2,613. The suspect handed the cashier cash, then took it back and shuffled it around several times before returning it. The cashier took the offered cash, placed it in the register, and allowed the customer to leave the store with the items. When the money was counted, the clerk found only $1,000 had been paid. Authorities obtained video footage of the transaction. The suspect is described as a male in his 30s with brown skin, a light beard and wearing a ball cap.
Ex-girlfriend sought in theft of pickup truck DAWSONVILLE, Ga. — A man reported his 1986 Ford F-150 truck was stolen April 5. The report said the man suspected the ex-girlfriend of his teenage son. The
suspect was unable to respond accurately, he was arrested on suspicion of false identity. He was also found in possession of a small quantity of marijuana. When the deputy determined the man’s true identify, records showed him to have two outstanding warrants from Gwinnett and Hall counties. The owner of the driver’s license was notified by the store that his account had a total of $5,000 in charges. The suspect was transported to jail.
man said the girl had previously been allowed to borrow the truck until she wrecked it. The suspect was reported to be staying with her mother in Braselton with the stolen truck. Later that same day, the assistant manager of Dollar General Store in Gainseville notified authorities that she had heard a female bragging over the phone about stealing a vehicle. She provided dispatch with a tag and description of the vehicle which matched to the victim’s truck. Deputies viewed the store’s surveillance footage and confirmed a facial match to the female’s driver’s license. Authorities were unable to locate the truck and gave the information to Hall County. No more information has been given.
Neighborhood residents report car break-ins CUMMING, Ga. — Deputies were notified of a car break-in April 4 on Terry Court. The vehicle owner said someone had broken into his car parked in the driveway and had removed several items. The owner said he had left the car unlocked. The console of his car was found open with valuables untouched. Among the items actually stolen was a pair of Beats headphones, spare change and cash. After the victim posted the incident on his subdivision’s Facebook page, other nearby residents claimed their vehicles had also been burglarized. A female victim reported that the camera located on her doorbell showed a male suspect driving a white sedan fail in his
attempt to open the door of her husband’s locked work truck. The video was submitted into evidence and the investigation is continuing.
Driver points gun during road rage ALPHARETTA, Ga. — A woman called police April 10 after a driver pointed a gun at her during a road rage incident. The woman had been traveling on Hanes Bridge Road that morning, when the driver in the car next to her began making obscene hand gestures at her. At the next light, the same driver pointed a handgun at the woman. When the woman attempted to back up her car, the driver reached around her backseat to continue pointing the gun at the woman. The woman was able to pull away and called 911.
Lost card charged multiple times ALPHARETTA, Ga. — A man called police April 8 after he realized he had accidentally left his credit card at a gas station and was unable to find it. The man had visited the RaceTrac on Old Milton Parkway at 3 a.m. and left the credit card on the counter. Nine hours later, the man could not find his card. He also saw that someone had been making several charges, totaling $90, on his card. The man cancelled the card before calling police.

In divisive session, Forsyth passes short-term rental code Commission votes 3-2 to prohibit operations in residential areas By PATRICK FOX pat@appenmediagroup.com FORSYTH COUNTY, Ga. — The battle over regulating short-term rentals in Forsyth County moved from the gallery onto the dais April 18 when Forsyth County commissioners argued over possible fallout from restrictions. In the end, though, the commission voted 3-2 to pass a change to its Unified Development Code banning the operations in residentially zoned areas throughout the county. The code does provide for operations lying within areas zoned for agriculture or agricultureresidential, lots generally much larger than those in residential areas. Still, even these operations must go through a zoning process to receive a conditional use permit. The vote followed more than an hour of debate over an issue that has stalked officials for more than two years and divided property owners. Forsyth County has about 250 properties operating as short-term rentals, a classification defined as residences
leased to tenants for fewer than 30 days. Close to a dozen proponents of the tighter restrictions reiterated their argument that residential homeowners deserve assurances that areas zoned for residential use remain free of lodging operations. They urged commissioners to abide by their own zoning laws and preserve neighborhoods from the higher traffic, transient population and disorder they say short-term rentals create. About an equal number of opponents spoke against the revision, calling it “government overreach,” and hinting that litigation would follow. They argued the county already has the tools in place to enforce unruly situations by shortterm tenants, a complaint, they say, that has been wildly exaggerated. They also argued that a coalition of operators has already formed to self-regulate the practice, and there is no need for the county to step in. The debate was no less heated among commissioners. County Commissioner Todd Levent proposed that rather than subject operators and county staff to the mountain of paperwork required to process conditional use permits, the commission should adjust its policy to allow shortterm rentals through simple permits. That way, he said, the county would

have an immediate, accurate record of operators, and it would free up the planning staff from an abundance of paperwork. “Our books get thicker and thicker,” he said. “We’ve become massive bureaucrats.” Levent also suggested an alternative by which overlay districts be established for shortterm rentals so that each commissioner could set guidelines for their operations within their own commission districts. Commissioner Cindy Jones Mills also spoke against the revisions. She argued the measures would remove short-term rentals from Commission Chairwoman Laura Semanson’s District 5 and open up her district in North Forsyth to more operations. “I think you’re bringing forth a motion that you haven’t even looked at,” Mills said. Semanson countered that her district, which includes much of the western shoreline of Lake Lanier, has a fair share of agriculturally zoned properties. She said these larger lots are more suited for short-term rental operations because, by their very nature, they are buffered from closerknit residential neighborhoods. “You typically have some separation from other properties,” Semanson said, adding there is enough agriculturally-zoned space in the county, including her district, to provide anyone an opportunity to get into the short-term rental business. Commissioner Molly Cooper said she also has plenty of properties in her District 1 that would accommodate short-term rentals under the revised ordinance. She said she’s fine with that, as long as they remain outside residential neighborhoods. “We have got a problem in this county, the honoring of that which is residential, the honoring of that which is a neighborhood,” she said. “It’s not just short term rentals. There are other kinds of businesses that are trying to come into residential areas as well. We have got to protect our residential areas — the ‘home’ of it.” Cooper joined Semanson and Commissioner Dennis Brown in approving the revisions. Mills and Levent voted in opposition. The new policy provides that the first conditional use permit for shortterm rentals cannot be issued until Jan.1, 2020.
Sheriff’s Office to host Drug Take Back Day disposal event By Adam Darby adam@northfulton.com CUMMING, Ga. — If your medicine cabinet is crowded with expired or unwanted medications, you can dispose of those extra or unneeded medications and pill bottles at the Forsyth County Sheriff’s Office. In honor of DEA National Drug Take Back Day, the Forsyth County Sheriff’s Office is hosting collection sites for safe disposal of unused prescription drugs. “Too often, unused prescription drugs find their way into the wrong hands, which is dangerous and often tragic,” the Sheriff’s Office said in a statement. Drug Take Back Day is held annually to raise awareness and prevent the harmful consumption of unused or expired drugs. The event will be held on April 27 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at either the North or South Precinct and at the Kroger located on Bethelview Road. Donors will remain anonymous. Drug drop boxes will also remain available at the North and South precincts throughout the week Monday to Friday from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. The addresses for the event are: • North Precinct, 2310 Keith Bridge Road • South Precinct, 2985 Ronald Reagan Blvd. • Kroger, 5550 Bethelview Road To learn more about this event, visit www.takebackday.dea.gov.

Students, dignitaries honor achievement South Forsyth Middle School receives Lighthouse Award By Adam Darby adam@northfulton.com CUMMING, Ga. — South Forsyth Middle School was recently listed as recipient of the Georgia Lighthouse Schools to Watch award as one of the state’s top middle schools. The ceremony was held at the campus on April 9 with more than 1,300 in attendance, including students, parents, teachers, and county government and school officials. The award, part of the National Forum Schools to Watch program, is one of the highest honors for middle grade school achievement. Nationally, about 400 schools receive the Schools to Watch designation. Lighthouse Schools to Watch recognizes high-performing middle schools excelling in academic excellence, social equity, developmental responsiveness, and organizational structures and processes. Speaking at the ceremony, South Forsyth Principal Sandy Tinsley said, “We received this award because of the students. I hope you realize this award is yours.” Forsyth County Schools Superintendent Jeff Bearden added his gratitude to the school for their hard work and expressed how proud he was of their ac-
complishments. Tinsley was presented with a plaque and an award fashioned in the shape of a lighthouse, while each administrative staff member received a lighthouse-shaped pen. The seventh and eighth grade women’s chorus and the eighth grade band performed at the ceremony. The Lighthouse Schools to Watch program began in 2003 to recognize “exceptional middle schools that embody the symbolism of a lighthouse and lead the way in the world of education.” South Forsyth was one of 17 middle schools recognized in Georgia for the 2019 awards. The program recognized 24 schools in 2018. The application process for each school includes a two-day site visit from program officials. During the site visit to South Forsyth Middle School, officials reported they were impressed by the administration’s high level of parent participation, welcoming environment for students, parent and business partners, and the Teacher Breakfast Club. North Forsyth’s own Liberty Middle School was also re-designated as a Lighthouse Schools to Watch. Both schools will be recognized at a special event in Washington D.C. in June.

Judging pizzazz 2019 Toyota Highlander I have the upmost respect for anyone who has honed their singing, dancing or performing skills to produce a thoroughly enjoyable act. That said, I hold some STDs in higher regard than television JOE PARKER talent shows. Reporter Though my wife joe@appenmediagroup.com is not a fan of the nearly 1,400 available to watch on any given night, she does religiously watch a few dancing competitions and one talent-based show. And whenever she tunes in to one of these programs, I tune out, usually by planting my phone about three millimeters from my face. However, I can still hear these judges, who usually have the same personality as a bowling ball, go on about how something was a good performance, but they needed something more to be wowed. It’s a critique that fitting of the
Toyota Highlander. In no way is the Highlander akin to William Hung singing “She Bangs,” on American Idol many years ago. In fact, there is little the three-row SUV gets wrong, but the judges (me in this case) would certainly call out its lack of pizzazz. The Highlander looks like a threerow SUV, and that’s about all one can say about its styling. In the mid-range XLE trim I tested the interior is neither lavish nor meager. Its driving characteristics are not inspiring or sporty, though in many ways the Highlander slots into reasonably good where handling, feel and ride quality are concerned. The Highlander does a lot of things right, it’s just not going to blow the audience away. Wind and tire noise are kept to a minimum in the cabin, and the threerow does provide a comfortable ride over all but the most cavernous of potholes. There’s room to stretch for those in the front and middle row, though fitting adults in the third row is a tough proposition if they happen to have legs. It is also challenging for large adults to climb

over the 60/40 split middle row to reach the third. However, Toyota also offers optional captain’s chairs for the middle row which would ease in-car contortions. The Highlander is well equipped with safety features in the base LE trim and includes radar cruise control, lane departure warning with steering assist, automatic high beams and a pre-collision system with brake assist. Other standard features include an LCD information display, four tie-downs in the cargo area and 18-inch wheels. Opting for the mid-range XLE adds blind spot warning, roof rails, a large moonroof, leather-trimmed seats in the front and middle row, push-button start, second row window shades and other amenities that most drivers seek without hurting the wallet too much with higher trims. The XLE also offers Driver Easy Speak which uses the microphone in the overhead console to project the driver’s voice through the rear speakers for those times when you really need to emphasize you will turn this damn car around. Other tech features include an 8-inch infotainment screen that is mostly easy to use. There is an auxiliary audio jack, Bluetooth and three USB ports in the front, but those hoping for Apple CarPlay or Android Auto connectivity are out of luck. The Highlander is offered with three engines including a hybrid, a four-cylinder and the option I tested, a 3.5-liter V6 offering 295-horsepower. The V6 can be a bit sluggish to respond to input, es-

pecially when the light turns green, but non-enthusiasts will likely take no issue with its capabilities. All engine options are paired with a mostly smooth eight-speed Continuously Variable Transmission. The CVT is mostly unnoticeable but does occasionally seem reluctant to downshift. There isn’t much feedback to be gathered from the Highlander’s brakes or steering, but neither feels overly disconnected. Those who don’t often need the added three seats of the third row will get plenty of cargo area. With the third row folded flat, the Highlander provides an ample 42-cubic feet of cargo area. That cubic-footage is reduced to 13.8 with the rear seats up. If you decide to take the Highlander off the pavement, you know, like people once did in SUVs, the Toyota offers allwheel drive and downhill assist control. The V6 and hybrid models also have a 5,000-pound towing capacity. With rear-wheel drive in base trim, the Highlander starts at $36,610. The XLE with all-wheel drive starts at $41,030, but the version I tested had a few options to put the price tag at just over $44,000. One of the added options was the BluRay DVD Entertainment System that include a 9-inch, drop down display with two wireless headphones, an RCA jack in case you want to hook up a PlayStation 2, and a remote. But buyer beware. Hide the remote once the kids have started a movie, otherwise they can blast the volume on “Frozen,” and with one button push, pump that same earsplitting noise through the car’s speaker system. Or, God forbid, they could play the audio of a judge rambling on during a televised talent show. Those judges would likely not shower the Highlander with praise, but they would commend it on a strong performance that fell just a bit short of the style and flair they sought. But what about the next act? Toyota revealed the fourth-generation, 2020 Highlander at the New York Auto Show April 17 with the new model sporting chiseled, attractive exterior styling. Toyota says using its TGNA-K platform will give the Highlander better agility and a smoother ride. The threerow will also now come with Android, Apple, SiriusXM and Amazon Alexa connectivity as standard. A new hybrid system will be available using a 2.5-liter four-cylinder which Toyota says will jump the hybrid’s efficiency from 28 to 34 combined mpg. Upper trims will come standard with captain’s chairs in the second row versus the 60/40 bench, new safety features have been added and the infotainment screen will swell to 12.3 inches. So maybe the fourth act is the performance that will wow the judges.

Fridays at the Fairgrounds begins second year By ADAM DARBY adam@northfulton.com CUMMING, Ga. — The Cumming Fairgrounds began its second year of the popular Fridays at the Fairgrounds series April 19. The event, sponsored by Andean Chevrolet, will continue to run on the third Friday of each month through October from 5 p.m. to 10 p.m. Based on the positive reception from last year, fairgrounds officials say they hope to adopt the series as an annual event. Since its initial inception in 1995, the Cumming Fairgrounds has become a staple for the community. With this event specifically geared toward family entertainment, the City of Cumming continues to embrace the seasonal fair that features a night of live music, colorful rides, entertaining shows and local food. “Fridays at the Fairgrounds is a great community event where you can find a variety of activities. There’s something of interest for everyone,” said Fairgrounds Event Coordinator Donna Cruse. “Some people stop by solely for dinner from their favorite food truck, while others appreciate the classic cars and modified jeeps. You’ll also find vendors, a kid’s zone, live

music, and a beer garden. And, if you choose, you can partake in the burn-out competition. After a long work week, it’s a fun way to kick off the weekend.” Because of the strong support from local sponsors, each night offers cost-free attractions that come with the purchase of a ticket. The big change this year is the addition of a free kids zone for younger children to enjoy at no additional cost to their parents. Another popular family event is a free comedy circus with two shows per night at 6 p.m. and 8 p.m. “We are expecting a large attendance this year at the Fridays at the Fairgrounds,” Cruse said. “It’s always nice to have something close to home for families to enjoy together.” The idea for the Friday event was first proposed by city officials as a means of establishing a communitybased tradition. “The City of Cumming Mayor Troy Brumbalow had the idea for this event, and we made it happen. It’s been a huge success and we hope it continues to grow every year,” Cruse said. The next Friday at the Fairgrounds is May 17 from 5 p.m. to 10 p.m. Tickets are $5 and children 12 and under are free.

Annual 55+ Lifestyle Expo draws crowds By JULIA GROCHOWSKI julia@appenmediagroup.com ALPHARETTA, Ga. — Hundreds flocked to the fourth annual Appen Media Group 55+ Lifestyle Expo on April 13. The four-hour expo, held at the Metropolitan Club on Windward Parkway, surpassed last year’s crowds, with more than 500 registered attendees and 40 vendors. It was a free event that allowed visitors to meet, greet and gather information on every stage of senior life, from retirement planning to empty nest lifestyle to caregiving. Although it is geared primarily toward the 55-and-older demographic, the expo provided information for anyone with aging parents and provided information on healthcare professionals. Senior Advertising & Events Executive Paul Flowers said this year’s event was a huge hit.

International Festival to be held April 27
Planning Commission discusses items slated for public hearing
By CARSON COOK carson@appenmediagroup.com
By ADAM DARBY adam@northfulton.com
JOHNS CREEK, Ga. — The second annual Johns Creek International Festival will showcase food, drinks, music and dance from around the world April 27. The International Festival is organized through a partnership between the city, the Johns Creek Arts Center and the Convention and Visitor Bureau. The free event will feature restaurants and food trucks, artisan vendors, an international beer and wine garden, live music and dance performances, and children’s activities. Foodies will have a world tour of cuisine at their fingertips, ranging from Asian and Indian spices to the savory flavors of the Mediterranean and Europe, to the delicious dishes of Latin America. The Global Beer and Wine Garden, for ages 21 and up, will feature brews and wines from around the globe. From stouts to chardonnay, attendees will be able to explore beverages from countries far away and close to home. Salsa dancers, martial artists, tradi-
tional drummers, rock bands and more will perform at the festival’s two stages. Children’s activities, organized by the Johns Creek Arts Center, will include face painting, cultural storytelling and craft stations. Last year, the first International Festival saw more than 22,000 attendees from across the state. The idea for the festival was born from a Cultural Diversity Task Force founded in 2016 to study ways to celebrate the city’s diversity. With a population of more than 83,000, Johns Creek is home to a sizeable Indian, Chinese, Korean and Mexican population, just to name a few of the many ethnicities and nationalities that call the city home. The Johns Creek International Festival will be at Heisman Field, located across from the Atlanta Athletic Club, 1930 Bobby Jones Drive. Guests can enter at the traffic light of Medlock Bridge Road and the Atlanta Athletic Club. There will be parking, including handicap parking, on-site at the festival.
CUMMING, Ga. –— The Forsyth County Planning Commission spent much of their time at the April 16 work session focusing on two items that will come up for public hearing later this month. The first to garner extensive discussion was an application from Rosy Enterprise, Inc. for operation of an organic vape shop at 2338 Atlanta Highway. The proposed business is intended to promote rehabilitation and prevent smoking and the use of harmful additives. Panel members stressed restrictions on the shop, such as barring customers under the age of 21 entering the store despite the legal vaping age of 18, the refusal for multiple sales to a single customer in the same transaction, and no artificial flavorings used in any of their products. Restrictions also would include banning use of the terms “vapor” and “e-cigarette.” Commission members expressed the prohibition of vape shops in an effort to prevent the spread of vape devices and fluid to surrounding local high schools
as well as shops from opening near county limits. “The City of Milton recently passed a prohibition on vape shops,” said Planning Commissioner Stacy Guy. “Perhaps Forsyth County should consider the same. I’m concerned that vape shops will proliferate just across the county line.” Another application that drew focus came from the HealthSouth Rehabilitation Hospital of Forsyth County, LLC for the property located at 1165, 1175, and 1195 Sanders Road. Commissioners conceded the hospital would be beneficial for the local job market, but the requested space devoted to parking exceeds what code permits. “HealthSouth is an interesting project that will bring jobs,” Guy said. “We just need to minimize the impact on adjacent neighbors as best we can. I have confidence Commissioner [Tim] Dineen will handle that well. They are asking for a lot of parking…it might be better to convert some of them to greenspace to better buffer the neighbors.” Further review and discussion of the applications will take place at this month’s public hearing, April 23.

Forsyth County resident launches her second book By JILLIAN DIMARCO interns@appenmediagroup.com FORSYTH COUNTY, Ga. — Author Julane Fisher launched her second book “Sour Lemon Strikes Back” at Johns Creek Books and Gifts April 13. The California native and current Forsyth Country resident started writing without interest in pursuing it as a career, just continuing a hobby of hers. “When my kids were in elementary school I would go to the schools and read,” Fisher said. “I then got interested in writing books and decided to finish a book that I had started so many years ago.” The original book in the series, “Sour Lemon and Sweet Tea” was inspired by her twin sons and a girl she had met a long time ago who came from a family full of twins. Fisher received an overwhelming amount of positive feedback from her first book, which eventually inspired her to write a second one. “Sour Lemon Strikes Back” was initially inspired by a bullying situation that was happening to a close relative.

“It got me thinking about what if I create a story within the Sour Lemon series that has to do with school bullying,” Fisher said. This book hit home for Fisher because in her spare time, she likes to speak to children at local
schools. As a public speaker, Fisher thought bullying would be a hot topic for her story. This past year, she spoke at over 30 different schools about topics such as writing curriculum, how to write books, reading books, bullying and more. She is currently working on two other books as well: one middle grade book and one young adult book. Fisher said she hopes to publish them within the next few years as well as continuing the Sour Lemon Series.

Our physicians are board-certified experts and leaders in joint replacement, and offer the latest in minimally-invasive surgery, including anterior hip replacement and robotic knee surgery to return you to activity.

Don’t be afraid to take chances. Don’t let the fear of failure drag you down… And when you do fail, pick yourself up, dust yourself off and learn from it. Karen Cashion, CEO of Tech Alpharetta 12 | Forsyth Herald | April 25, 2019
Tech Alpharetta CEO talks work-life balance By JULIA GROCHOWSKI julia@appenmediagroup.com ALPHARETTA, Ga. — Karen Cashion, a trained attorney from Duke University with over 20 years of law experience, never thought she would become the CEO of a nonprofit. She would have laughed if you had suggested it while she was finishing her degree, Cashion said. She had it all planned out. Law would be her life-long career. But, Cashion said, life has a funny way of working out, and she couldn’t be happier with her new, unexpected role at Tech Alpharetta. Cashion spoke at the April 16 Women Who Walk the Walk event at The Golf Club of Georgia. Women Who Walk the Walk is speaker series put on by the Alpharetta Chamber of Commerce that invites women leaders to speak about their experiences and how they go beyond their comfort zones. Cashion worked for several law firms, both large and small, in New York and Georgia. Some of her past companies include Simpson Thacher & Bartlett, EarthLink and Travelport, LP. And in Atlanta, she got her dream job of working as in-house council for a large company. The hours were long and demanding, Cashion said, but she thought she was sticking to her five- and ten-year plans. She had a wakeup call after a minor health scare made her realize how unhappy and tired her job was making her. As in-house council, she was often required to travel to California to attend trials and mediations, pulling her away from her newborn baby. “That’s kind of tricky to do when you have a baby at home,” Cashion said.
“What I hadn’t counted on was the fact that it made me feel pretty miserable to be gone for two weeks at a time… I felt like I was running an endless marathon.” Cashion said she was torn and terrified about leaving her dream job, but she knew she had to do it. “I thought about it — what was I going to regret more when I was 65?” Cashion said. “Not climbing the ladder at this company and making it to the top? Or, not having spent time with my daughter? It’s a different answer for everybody. But I felt compelled that I really wanted to be in a different situation where I could spend more time with my family and daughter.” Cashion then moved to Alpharetta, and, for a while, struggled to balance work she enjoyed with her family life. “I took on what was by far the hardest job I’ve ever had, the job of a stayat-home mom,” Cashion said. “I traded order and predictability in my life to complete chaos… I traded what was a very respected executive position for what, sadly, is still not as respected a position as it should be, to stay at home and care for your kids. But I never regretted it.” She worked for a few years in her own law practice, when she decided in 2013 to start her own nonprofit called the Greater Alpharetta Tech Network to help connect the budding technology community. Shortly after creating the nonprofit, Cashion’s life was once again upturned when her husband lost his job, and she was forced to quit her independent practice to find a higher-paying job in Atlanta. But, Cashion said, she soon found herself in the same spot she was years

other way. It was then that she learned about the up-and-coming Tech Alpharetta, a nonprofit that grows technology and innovation in Alpharetta. City officials approached her to head it full time, and she accepted. “It was kind of a no-brainer,” Cashion said. “I enjoyed practicing law, but I already knew from running a nonprofit that I loved that better… And I’ve been there ever since. I love what I’m doing, and when you love what you’re doing, it stops being work.” Cashion added that she never would have predicted her life’s course, but she’s learned several lessons along the way, including adaptability and to not make sweeping predictions about life. “Things are going to change, and the things that matter most to you are going to change during the course of your career,” Cashion said. “Don’t be afraid to take chances. Don’t let the fear of failure drag you down… And when you do fail, pick yourself up, dust yourself off and learn from it.”

Perimeter Center creating new center of gravity Utilizing best Local experts have said for years that practices the draw for these If you think you have a handle on the Perimeter Center area in Dunwoody and how it is growing, you might want to think again. There are three huge office projects in the works that will Geoff smith add more than 2.5 Assurance Financial, gsmith@lendtheway.com million square feet of office space, 500,000 square feet of retail and over 3,000 residential units. In an article in the Atlanta Business Chronicle, Dunwoody Director of Economic Development Michael Starling said these projects will create “a new center of gravity for the Perimeter office market.” Park Center is the largest project currently under construction and is a 17-acre, master-planned project that includes four, 20-plus story buildings that will house more than 10,000 employees for State Farm. It is the largest ground-up corporate office project in metro Atlanta’s history, according to the article. The first building is complete and currently hosts State Farm employees, and construction is underway on buildings II and III which will open in January 2020 and January 2021 respectively. Construction has not started on the fourth building, but it is being marketed to a non-State Farm tenant. The campus is directly across Hammond Drive from the Dunwoody MARTA station, and pedestrian bridges will connect the buildings to each other and to the MARTA station. There also will be links to multi-use trails that will lead to surrounding parks and other trail systems. Twelve24 is the second project, and it broke ground last July. It sits across Hammond Drive from the State-Farm project and next to the Dunwoody MARTA station. It will include a 16-story office building with 11,000 square feet of restaurant space, a 9,500-square-foot
projects was the availability of the land so close to the transit station. fitness center and a conference center. Connected to the building will be a 10-story Hyatt Place Hotel. The office has a large tenant slated to move in with Insight Global. With the introduction to the area of at least 10,000 State Farm employees and thousands of others, one would wonder whether the surrounding services can support them. My office is in the Perimeter area and I can tell you that at noon, most of the restaurants I go to are already packed. The answer is a development that will be called High Street. This third project has not broken ground yet, but will be the area’s largest mixed-use development. It is being developed by Avalon-developer North American Properties and will include 400,000 square feet of retail, 400,000 square feet of office, luxury residences and a 400-room hotel. This project when complete will feel more like a gathering place. When built, this project appears as though it will serve as the true center of town for the Perimeter area. And being located also across Hammond Drive from the State Farm project, its retail will no doubt have a tremendous amount of daytime customers an easy walk away. Local experts have said for years
that the draw for these projects was the availability of the land so close to the transit station. Companies are working harder to lure the next generation of our workforce, and those workers seem to be more flexible when it comes to alternatives to using the car. The state and local municipalities have come to grips with the understanding that we need to spend more money on providing transportation alternatives or risk having traffic choke our ability to keep attracting businesses to the metro area. The metro counties for the first time have come together to collect dedicated tax money that will be set aside for MARTA, which will slowly transform its name and brand to The ATL. The state dramatically increased its spending on transit and transportation projects in the metro Atlanta area. And while there may not be significant expansion of MARTA’s current rail system, money has been dedicated to expand bus rapid transit, which is less costly to get started and shows a much quicker timetable to implement. The residents and workers who will occupy the new spaces around the Dunwoody transit station will all have quick access to the new network of transit options. And the office developers, and State Farm, are betting big that the future workforce will see this as an important amenity in choosing where they want to work.

Are you utilizing best practices with your employees to help them do their jobs better? Do you encourage your employees to document what they do and how they do it so that it can be shared with dick jones others? As the saying Founder & President Jones Simply Sales goes, “rising tides will raise all ships.” The same holds true for utilizing best practices, as it will make everyone better at what they do. A best practice is either a method or technique that has consistently shown better results than those achieved by other means. For example, if you have a sales rep that is closing 50% of their pipeline while everyone else is closing only 10%, you probably want to know what they are doing differently. Sharing best practices can help facilitate this process. Sharing best practices is one thing, but actually adopting best practices is where you will really get the biggest return. Plenty of small business owners share best practices, but few take it to the next level by implementing those practices across their business. While there is value is sharing best practices, the real value is delivered by implementing them. Often best practices come directly from your top performers. Taking the time to better understand what they are doing to outperform others in your business is a key way to identify best practices. While sharing and implementing best practices does take time, the benefits of having everyone “rise up” as a result are undeniable.

Soleil Laurel Canyon named Best 50 Master-Planned Communities Tucked away in the North Georgia foothills of Canton and just a short drive from exciting Atlanta, Soleil Laurel Canyon is more than a beautiful community of maintenance-free, ranch-style homes and breathtaking views. It’s the lifestyle you’ve worked your whole life to enjoy. If you are 55+, we invite you to come experience Soleil’s incomparable array of recreation, culture, and entertainment for yourself. You’ll have no doubt why it was named among the Best 50 Master-Planned Communities in the U.S. by Where to Retire Magazine in 2015. “Clubhouses, fitness centers, social clubs and education classes mean residents get much more than a house at a planned community,” said Karen Northridge, publisher of “Where to Retire.” One of the great pleasures of living at Soleil is that a low-maintenance home gives you the free time to take advantage of all that the community offers or take a trip without concern. The landscaped grounds of Soleil Laurel Canyon are always impeccably maintained, while your HOA dues cover complete lawn maintenance and an irrigation system, in-home security monitoring and maintenance, and even Comcast cable TV. Soleil Laurel Canyon offers a selection of Cottage, Traditional and Craftsman-style single-family homes from the mid $200,000s to $400,000s for adults 55+. Residents live independently in homes that range from 1,500 square feet to almost 3,000 square feet. All of Soleil’s new floor plans include elegant details and are designed for aging-in-place with stepless-entry access and wide doorways. These homes are energy ef-
ficient with HERS ratings above standard. Soleil residents have membership in a 28,000-square-foot clubhouse complete with an arts and crafts room, billiards room, fitness center, gourmet teaching kitchen, indoor heated saline lap pool, and library. Outside the clubhouse, residents have a heated Lagoon-style pool, a community garden and greenhouse,
a 3.5-acre fishing lake and the tennis facility with a full-time USPTA-certified teaching professional. The Fairways of Canton golf course is located just outside Soleil’s gate within Laurel Canyon, and offers challenging golf for a reasonable, daily-fee price. Two Lifestyle Directors maintain a full social calendar of events including wine socials, movie nights, trips to nearby attractions, and Grandkids day.

Biology always surprises and is (nearly) impossible to predict By Dr. Brent Taylor Premier Dermatology and Mohs Surgery of Atlanta In this month’s March issue of JAMA (the Journal of the American Medical Association), an interesting article apDr. Taylor peared entitled “The Surprisingly Positive Association Between Obesity and Cancer Immunotherapy Efficacy.” The article summarized recent findings that modern immune-system based anti-cancer medications sometimes work better if a patient is obese. This seems to be true in the case of melanoma in males. Obese men with melanoma exhibited increased survival on immunotherapies than non-obese men. This was not true for traditional chemotherapy. Before we get ahead of ourselves and encourage the men in our lives to eat more and exercise less, it’s worth mentioning that other studies have found that obesity increases our risk of developing cancers in the first place. This is also true for melanoma – in one study, obese men were 31% more likely to develop melanoma than non-obese men. The aforementioned article simply supports that obese men with a melanoma diagnosis on certain medicines may fare better than fit males with a melanoma diagnosis. To a physician, the finding of a positive effect of obesity in cancer is even more surprising because obesity is generally thought of as an immunocompromised state. In general, obesity weakens the immune system. Why would a medicine that depends on the immune system work better in someone with an unhealthy immune system? Perhaps the medicine does not so much depend on the immune system to work as bolster the immune system. If a lack of a healthy immune system is part of the obese patient’s problem, then should we not have anticipated that the obese patient would experience greater benefit from an immune-bolstering therapy? Biology is very difficult to predict one or two steps ahead. It is easy to formulate a hypothesis for why an immunebased therapy would be more effective in someone with a compromised immune system, just as it is easy to formulate a hypothesis for why such a medicine might be less effective. Perhaps immunocompromise means immune-based therapies can’t exert their maximum effect. Or perhaps immunocompromise
means immune-based therapies are even better than anticipated because they are meeting a greater need. Regarding the melanoma case, why would obesity be helpful in men and not women for certain cancers? Women deposit fat differently; fat in different locations can produce different hormones and be more or less pro-inflammatory, and perhaps women were designed to be able to be healthy with higher levels of adipose tissue, but what is the key factor? Biology is very difficult to predict by first principles alone. That is why a familiarity with the medical literature, a willingness to study, and a reliance on experimental results are so critical to a physician’s efficacy. All this is what is meant by the buzz phrase “evidence based medicine.” And as surprising as it may be that obesity may offer a rare health benefit, you might be interested to find that several “unhealthy” things may result in various benefits. If you’re curious, then look into the evidence that tobacco use may lower the risk of Parkinson disease, ulcerative colitis and be associated with lower risk of obesity… almost everything carries risk and reward. Many times, a physician’s job is to help you balance risk and reward: Is it really important that you spend less time in the sun? Should you have this surgery? These are all risk and reward questions that can be answered with the help of a (or several) qualified physicians. Dr. Brent Taylor is board certified in dermatology, certified by the American Board of Venous and Lymphatic Medicine, and is fellowship-trained in Mohs micrographic surgery, cutaneous oncology and the treatment of varicose veins and venous disorders. If you or a loved one has a history of skin cancer, a suspicious spot, a vein issue or other dermatologic need, consider making an appointment at Premier Dermatology and Mohs Surgery of Atlanta today.

Country Club of the South to host golf tournament JOHNS CREEK, Ga. — The annual Callaway Golf Junior Classic will be held April 26 to 28 at the Country Club of the South. Since its inception in 2009, the Callaway tournament has brought together some of the top junior golfers in the world to compete annually each spring in Johns Creek. This 54-hole stroke play event is a two-time recipient of the American Junior Golf Association’s “Open Tournament of the Year” award. Each year the competition brings together local amateurs and some of the game’s future stars to support local charities. The tournament has raised more than $400,000 for junior golf and local causes. Local junior golf organizations are supported from this event including the AJGA ACE Grant program, whose goal is to provide national golf opportunities to junior golfers regardless of financial resources, and the Shepherd Center Foundation.
The Shepherd Center offers a comprehensive rehabilitation program for service members who have served in the military since September 11, 2001 and who are experiencing post-traumatic stress and mild to moderate brain injury. This year, the tournament includes golfers from eight countries. There is no entry charge to see world class golf right here in Johns Creek. The AJGA has an annual junior membership (Ages 12 to 19) of more than 6,900 junior golfers from 50 states and 55 foreign countries. AJGA alumni have risen to the top of amateur, collegiate and professional golf. More than 200 former AJGA juniors currently play on the PGA and LPGA Tours and have compiled more than 830 wins.
