Three students confirmed Feel Beautiful Today – with COVID in Honors Healthcare Heroes in Atlanta Forsyth Schools The organization will provide 300 “thank you” lunches to healthcare workers. PAID ADVERTISEMENT
By CANDY WAYLOCK Candy@appenmediagroup.com FORSYTH COUNTY, Ga. — Three students — each from different high schools — were confirmed positive with COVID-19 during the first week of classes for Forsyth County Schools. A district official stressed that the numbers should be kept in perspective, because the school system includes nearly 55,600 students and staff. “Our schools are doing a great job with contact tracing to identify and notify those individuals that have had direct exposure to the positive cases,” said Jennifer Caracciolo, director of Communications for Forsyth Schools. The students were enrolled at Denmark, Lambert and West Forsyth high schools. However, this does not mean the student was physically at the school on the day of their positive diagnosis. Caracciolo said the school and Department of Public Health will contact anyone who had direct exposure to a student that tested positive. She noted parents and guardians across the district have been asked to keep children at home if they have symptoms or are awaiting the results of a COVID-19 test. Forsyth County Schools is the largest system in the state to open its schools for face-to-face learning. The district offers a virtual option for students who wish to remain at home. Approximately two-thirds of students have returned to in-person instruction. According to data from the Georgia Department of Public Health, Forsyth County’s rate of positive cases of COVID-19 is among the lowest of the 159 counties in Georgia. Recent data shows Forsyth has 1,073 cases per 100,000 population, compared to 2,099 cases per 100,000 in neighboring Fulton County. Forsyth’s first week contrasts with other nearby districts that opened in early August, then promptly began closing buildings as COVID-19 cases began to rise. In Cherokee and Paulding counties, several high schools were closed temporarily for deep cleaning after a surge of COVID positive cases, and subsequent national attention. With only one student confirmed positive for COVID-19 at each of the three For-

Commissioners reprimand one of their own Levent censured following probe into possible ethics violations By JOE PARKER joe@appenmediagroup.com FORSYTH COUNTY, Ga. — The Forsyth County Board of Commissioners formally censured Commissioner Todd Levent Aug. 20 following an independent investigation that showed he bypassed Open Records laws to obtain information from the county and about another commissioner. The resolution, read at the board’s regular business meeting by Chairwoman Laura Semanson, acknowledges the findings of the investigation and its 200-page report. It also suggested that Levent’s actions outlined in the investigation “may also” violate the Georgia Open Records Act and the Georgia Computer Systems Protection act, “which makes it a felony for a public officer to steal public records,” the resolution said. The document also stated that his actions undermined the trust of the board, county employees and the public. The censure is the first of three actions the board could take in response to
the report. They also approved a potential review by an ethics panel and to seek a referral from an “outside agency” to pursue the investigation further. The investigation charged Levent with obtaining emails from commissioner Cindy Jones Mills’ county email account without her knowledge or consent in March. The report said that, in another instance, Levent made a telephone request to a Board of Commissioners assistant to obtain additional emails between Mills and one of her constituents. When the assistant suggested the emails could be obtained through an Open Records Request, Levent replied that he had access to the emails because he was a commissioner. Those emails were later sent to Levent’s personal campaign email account. “The formal inquiry found further evidence that Commissioner Levent had used the Open Records Act in the past to obtain emails and other documents from other commissioners and was therefore aware the procedure required by the county,” the censure resolution states.
The investigation showed Levent later requested a list of contact information for attendees at a 2018 town hall for a proposed wastewater facility. A man at that meeting, who was also included in one of the emails obtained from Mills’ account, received a call from Levent ahead of the primary election urging he not vote for Mills. The report said Levent did not need to file a formal records request for the list. However, his sending the list to his personal email account less than 20 minutes after receiving the spreadsheet “raised questions about what he did with it.” “The above described actions of Commissioner Levent are believed to be in violation of the code of ethics of government service…which requires a public employee to put loyalty to the highest moral principles and to the county above loyalty to persons, party or government department,” the censure resolution states. The investigation report advised that Levent was possibly using the information to back the campaign of Brandy Bevis, who ran against Mills in the June 9 primary. However, the investigation could not reach a “definite conclusion” because neither Levent nor Bevis were interviewed for the investigation. Levent cited scheduling conflicts, and Bevis
refused to be interviewed without a subpoena. The report’s lack of testimony from the two main subjects spurred District 2 Commissioner Dennis Brown to suggest the board possibly look into acquiring “all the information” before taking action. But, commissioners Semanson and Molly Cooper said Levent had ample opportunity to speak with investigators. “I appreciate that sentiment, but I will say, you can bring a horse to water, but you can’t make him drink,” Semanson said. “And there were numerous occasions over the course of the last several months where there was opportunity and where contact was made specifically to schedule an interview. And they were either not responded to, cancelled or postponed.” Cooper said Levent was given an extra two weeks during the investigatory period to give a statement, but he did not do so. Earlier this month, commissioners approved additional spending to cover the costs for the investigation over its original budget of up to $20,000. The exact dollar amount was not discussed, and commissioners did not ask for an estimate.
Forsyth County declines almost $1 million HUD grant again By RAY APPEN ray@appenmediagroup.com FORSYTH COUNTY, Ga. — Forsyth County commissioners have decided to pass on up to $910,000 in grant money from the Department of Housing and Urban Development. The grant would have provided almost a million dollars to be used for housing improvements primarily for low income residents living within the county. At an Aug. 11 workshop, the commission expressed concerns that the grant was encumbered by a number of conditions — typically affirmative action/“fair housing”-related — and as such, greatly restricted local control over how the money could be spent. Forsyth County Attorney Ken Jarrard pointed out that terms of the HUD program for 2021 had a specific focus and that conditions based on the new HUD rules were “more flexible and less onerous.” He further noted that the process involved in taking advantage of the grant had been made easier and now only required “one or more steps.” He suggested the new
The grant would have provided funding for housing improvements primarily for low income residents living within the county. guidelines seemed to give more local control to how the grand money could be spent. Commissioner Molly Cooper expressed concerns, which were generally supported by other commissioners, that the new conditions might be subject to change depending on the results of the upcoming presidential election and that a “wait and see” approach might be most prudent. Commissioners agreed that it could be beneficial to the county if grant money could be put to use to aid issues such as mental health and domestic
violence. Ultimately, Jarrard suggested that the board decline the grant this year but not give up the “entitlement status”
which would enable the county to consider accepting the grant in 2022. That motion was made and passed unanimously.

Family Promise pairs Schools: with congregations to offer needed relief Continued from Page 3
Nonprofit helps families as hard times sweep area By PATRICK FOX pat@appenmediagroup.com ALPHARETTA, Ga. — In normal times, Family Promise of North Fulton/DeKalb is an unusual operation. The charity operates as a rotational shelter for homeless families. Rather than housing clients in its own building, the nonprofit relies on a network of North Fulton and DeKalb County congregations to share space at their facilities to house and feed clients. Families relocate from one facility to the next every seven days. The 16 congregations participating in the rotation include Christian, Jewish and Muslim faiths. An additional eight congregations provide money or donation drives to help support the program. Usually, a host congregation will transform one of its classrooms to living quarters for the week, said Family Promise of North Fulton/DeKalb Executive Director Andrea Brantley. Another unusual aspect of the nonprofit is how it accommodates clients. The charity allows families to remain together, regardless of gender. “In most shelters, they separate families by sex,” she said. “If you’re a single mom and you have a 13 and 14 -yearold boy, they’re going to the other side of the shelter. This is a way for single moms and their boys to stay together.” Family Promise will take in married couples. Most shelters in North Fulton do not take in adult men. “We also take single dads,” Brantley said. “Last year, we had a single dad who was a veteran and he had a 16-year-old son.” Under normal circumstances, families are accommodated for 90 days and provided with job and financial counseling. Every so often, a family is referred to a more permanent shelter when the time limit is over. The coronavirus pandemic has made the operation even more unusual. It now provides a single shelter site provided at St. Luke Presbyterian Church in Dunwoody. Families are staying put, and the time limit has been extended by another 90 days. The current families have been at St. Luke since April. The other congregations chip in to provide food, supplies, gift cards and overnight volunteers. “St. Luke’s was nice enough to offer their space to us,” Brantley said. “I am
Family Promise of North Fulton/DeKalb is a small operation and relies solely on volunteers and donations. extremely lucky to have the volunteers that we have at each congregation. They have made it very easy.” The nonprofit made a video for volunteers providing them with the layout of the church, where they were to sleep, where they could eat and other information about helping the families staying in their own quarters at the facility. Family Promise of North Fulton/ DeKalb is a small operation and relies solely on volunteers and donations. It does not receive government funding. Brantley said she has always been grateful to the generosity of the community, and it has made a difference. “We’re currently serving a family of a mother with two high-school-aged girls and a young adult son,” she said. “They were living in their car when they came to us.” Since receiving food and shelter at St. Luke, Brantley said, the young man was able to get an internship during the pandemic that has now turned into a job. “He has been able to do the job fully from St. Luke’s, and I’m not sure that would’ve ever happened if he were living in his car right now,” she said. “The smile I see on this kid’s face when I walk in in the morning… He’s got a job, and he’s in the library and he’s working, it just makes me feel really good.” Not only that, but all three moms staying at the church have found employment during the pandemic. The idea now, Brantley said, is for the three to begin saving to clear their debts and find their own place to live with their families. Brantley said Family Promise of North Fulton/DeKalb needs donations now more than ever. She said the charity needs money, gift cards for groceries, restaurants, gas and other items. More information about donations and volunteering can be found on the organization’s website, familypromisenfd.org.

and clean up,” Caracciolo said. When large groups of students gather outside of school without masks or social distancing, she said, those actions impact the ability of the district to keep the schools healthy and safe. Students are expected to wear masks, but it is not mandated. A visit to a school on the first day of the year showed nearly every student and staff member wearing a face covering. Parents who opted to keep their children home for virtual learning can decide after nine weeks to return to inperson learning or remain online.

These days have been interesting times for me and for everyone in the newspaper business. Much of our focus here in Alpharetta/North Fulton is on simply continuing to get our five weekly newspapers RAY APPEN out — to write the Publisher Emeritus stories, to compose ray@appenmediagroup.com the papers, sell the advertising, do the paperwork of administration and distribute those papers to the over 90,000-plus driveways we deliver to each week. During a pandemic. Working remotely most of the time. With reduced hours and staff. While the world goes kind of crazy. No worries, right? Wrong. I worry a lot. But not necessarily about what you think. For over 30 years we have delivered our newspapers to North Atlanta homes for free. Advertising has always paid the bulk of the bills. Each issue involves an incredible amount of hyper-focused effort, sweat, sometimes sleepless nights, obsessive drive, and, yep, plain old pride and dedication on the part of our staff. We have, as I mentioned in a recent column, probably covered over 4,000 city council meetings for Alpharetta, Roswell, Milton, Johns Creek and Dunwoody — plus Forsyth County Board of Commissioners, Fulton County Board of Education and also the Fulton County Commission meetings. We cover school news and school sports — the schools your children go to — those memories and experiences that stay with them the rest of their lives. We provide you with information that impacts your health and well-being, about your city’s government and zoning decisions that can double the value of your property or cut it in half. We give you knowledge about where the millions upon millions of your tax dollars go. We write about your deaths, births and marriages. And we write the things you want to do or attend — the plays, the concerts, shows, get-aways, performances and anything else that is part and parcel to your life. That is, we’ve got your back. We’re looking out for you. But do you want us to? We package the life-enhancing information in one organized bundle called a newspaper and hand-deliver it conveniently to your doorstep — for free. And you know what? I am at a loss to come up with another example of you being given anything of any reasonable or personal value like that, for free, no strings attached.
But, here is the part that I worry about and which I don’t get. I worry that something is going on out there. That instead of being interested in and engaged in meaningful ways with life and community, more and more people seem distracted by other things, things that I don’t see or understand. I see this in many forms, including people requesting — and at times demanding — to not receive their local newspaper. I see it in the outright anger and malice in voice and actions of some with regard to the paper. We have seen people blockade their cul-du-sac so that our carrier cannot exit in order to berate them and scream at them. They have thrown things at the carriers’ cars and kicked their cars and hit them with their fists. We have had guns pulled on our delivery folks — yes guns pulled and carriers threatened — because they were delivering— for free — this bundle of information crafted primarily to protect, engage and enhance their lives. And while I get it that it would be wrong and also arrogant to assume that everyone wants the newspaper, I do worry about “why” they don’t. After the “I get my information online,” “I don’t want to kill trees,” and “it is inconvenient to pick the paper up off my driveway,” there is a big gap of people just not caring. And on top of that, there is this anger. What is happening? It’s certainly not just newspapers. We are now seeing people getting beaten and sometimes killed because they have been asked to wear a mask. We are seeing people viewing a mask as some type of assault — a mask designed to protect the wearer and those around the wearer from catching a virus and possibly dying. They become enraged. They strike out. All they see is a tunnel-vision “me” and no larger picture. Why? I am not worried about having plenty of folks who want our newspapers and welcome them. We have always had a waiting list of new subdivisions that are asking to receive the newspapers. There has always been more demand for our papers than there has been supply. And yes, I know and accept that a small percentage of people do not want a local newspaper hand-delivered for free to their front step, even if that newspaper saves them money, protects them, chronicles their lives and their children’s lives, and generally enriches their life. Not wanting the local newspaper delivered to your home for free however is not “the thing.” Along with the anger, it is only a symptom of a greater and more disturbing problem. Something is broken.

Local podcast calls attention to daily police experiences By HANS APPEN hans@appenmediagroup.com ALPHARETTA, Ga. — On the first episode of the new podcast ‘Caddy Wagon with Ritchey and Raider’, Alpharetta K9 Officer Raider and her alpha, Officer Phil Ritchey, are called to the scene of a traffic stop where there is a suspicion that drugs may be in the vehicle. The podcast’s hosts, Cadillac Jack (real name William Choate) and Ritchey can be heard discussing what they are being called to the scene to do, what K9 Raider will do once they get there, and the results of the search shortly after. The intimate look into the daily routine of a police officer is the type of experience that the podcast hosts hope to give listeners during a time of political unrest around policing practices. “We recognize that our country has issues that we need to keep talking about and working on. But we also want to remind people that police are people too, and no one hates a bad cop more than a good cop,” explain Jack and Ritchey, who have known each other for about 4 years and started developing the podcast concept months before the death of George Floyd resulted in national protests. “We talked about it a lot,” Jack said of the protests, “And we think that we can help contribute to productive conversations about what role police can and should be playing in our communities.” While this is Ritchey’s debut as a podcast co-host, Jack is no stranger to success on the airwaves. Best known for his tenure as the morning host for Kicks 101.5, Jack started podcasting as a member of the Appen Podcast Network with his wife and co-host Donna when they launched ‘Cadillac Jack – My Second Act’ in January of this year. The podcast was dedicated to talking about everyday people and events in a

An effort that, as it turned out, was especially timely in 2020. “While the environment we’ve been in made the physical production of our show harder, and our topics of conversation different than what we’d anticipated, we heard from listeners that our show was exactly what they needed right now. A break from the negative news in the world and an opportunity to laugh once in a while,” Jack said. The numbers reflect that sentiment, too. Since its first episode in January, the podcast has been listened to in 46 US states and sponsors of the show have recognized the opportunity promote their service or business to an engaged audience that is largely homebound. The podcast peaked on Apple’s podcasts charts, a ranking of popularity, at number 8 in the “entertainment” category in March. “I think what makes our podcast successful is that we are real with people,” said Donna. “We talk about things that are probably happening in their lives, too, and the ways we’ve been dealing these last few months. We talk about our marriage, kids, grocery shopping – you name it. We’re always real with our listeners and never sugar coat it.”

Our hope is making these funds available will allow these businesses to weather the current storm and come through strong on the other side. LAURA SEMANSON, Forsyth Board of Commissioners chairwoman 8 | Forsyth Herald | August 27, 2020
Forsyth County businesses receive CARE relief funds By MARK WOOLSEY newsroom@appenmediagroup.com FORSYTH COUNTY, Ga. — Forsyth County businesses responded by the hundreds to a call for applications under the federal CARES Small Business Grant Relief Program, getting a thumbs-up from a top county official. As the application deadline passed Aug. 19, some 320 businesses had applied for a portion of the grant money, designed to assist smaller enterprises that have suffered due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Just under $1. 9 million dollars is funding the program, a portion of the county’s disbursement under the federal legislation under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act. The grant process has been administered through the Forsyth County Chamber of Commerce, which set up an independent oversight committee to vet applications. Executive Vice President Jimmy Lane said that while some
applications are still being evaluated, the entire allocated amount has been spoken for. Lane said some 619 applications were started but not completed for two reasons: either they didn’t fit application criteria or they didn’t apply in time to meet the first-come first-served nature of the program. Businesses had to meet a number of benchmarks approved by Cumming and Forsyth officials, including having to be located principally in the county, be in operation for at least one year prior to March 1, 2020 and be able to concretely demonstrate a reduction in sales/revenue due to COVID-19. Lane said applications ran the gamut. “Everything from the single handyman working out of his home all the way to businesses not to exceed 499 employees,” he said. “It was great to see the diversity as we went through the applications.” Lane said applicants included manu-

facturers, service industries and restaurants, which were hit particularly hard. Board of Commissioners Chairwoman Laura Semanson said officials were “very pleased” with the response to the call for applications, which kicked off earlier in August on the forsythcountycares website. “It takes businesses of all kinds to help make a vibrant, thriving community,” she said in a statement. “Small businesses in Forsyth are owned and operated by friends and neighbors, so we are glad we have had many of them take advantage of this program. Our hope is making these funds available will allow these businesses to weather the current storm and come through strong on the other side.” Lane said the funding is being disbursed in tiers according to the type of business that applied, ranging from up to $2,000 for a sole proprietorship, to up to $10,000 for businesses employing 26 to 499 people.
As to where the money will specifically go, Lane said he viewed a lot of applications seeking help with lease/ rent payments, payroll and the cost of personal protective equipment. The county website said other permitted uses include help with machinery and equipment, health care benefits and supplier payments. It’s the kind of funding mechanism apparently not available to cities in neighboring North Fulton, at least not so far. Fulton County got $104 million in federal aid this spring to distribute to 14 of its 15 municipalities, with Atlanta getting its own pot. Fulton County has proposed distributing only $2.5 million to the cities, but the municipalities want a bigger share of the pie. Legal action has been held out as a possibility if talks don’t produce a resolution. In Forsyth, it was not clear when county government would issue the first aid checks.
Berkshire Hathaway sets sales record ATLANTA, Ga. — Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Georgia Properties exceeded its previous best sales month of $420 million in May of 2019 with over $500 million dollars in sales for July 2020.

Platelet rich plasma and thicker hair Brought to you by – Dr. Brent Taylor Premier Dermatology and Mohs Surgery of Atlanta Everyone would like to have thicker hair. Well, almost everyone -- but our focus today is DR. TAYLOR not on those rare unicorns whose complaint is that their hair is just too thick, too luxurious and too lustrous. This article is for the rest of us who would like to have more or thicker hair or at least stop losing what we have. Several treatment options have been the staple considerations for normal male and female pattern hair loss for years. For men, finasteride, minoxidil and hair transplantation have long been the most effective interventions. Women’s treatment options used to be even more limited, with minoxidil alone being the main option for female pattern hair loss. However, a growing body of research supports that hormone replacement and/or platelet rich plasma injections could be the miracle grow for failing follicles! First, a note about hormone replacement therapy: A physician named Dr. Glaser published an article in the British Journal of Dermatology in 2012 which made an observation that has unfortunately gained little attention likely because it runs counter to how people usually think about hair loss and testosterone. Dr. Glaser surveyed 285 women who had been on subcutaneous testosterone therapy for more than a year for the treatment of androgen deficiency and 63% of the women who had reported hair thinning prior to treatment reported hair thickening after treatment began. This finding has received little attention, but a 63% response rate deserves further investigation. Several patients in my own clinic who complained of thinning hair, went on androgen replacement prescribed by their endocrinologist or ob-gyn for other reasons. These patients’ hair became markedly thicker and more voluminous on testosterone. Although Premier Dermatology does not offer hormone replacement therapy (HRT), androgen levels are one of the laboratory tests that we order as part of our screening panel for causes of hair loss. If we have a female hair loss patient with low androgen levels (either low or “low normal”), we offer referral to a physician who performs HRT for discussion of risks and benefits of a trial of androgen replacement therapy for hair loss. Results that we have seen have paralleled
the 63% response rate that Dr. Glaser published. Second and just as exciting, Platelet Rich Plasma, also known as PRP, is an option that is fast becoming an important treatment strategy for treating hair loss in both men and women, be it for common hair thinning or for certain alopecia syndromes. PRP is a blood product derived from a patient’s own blood. The process involves the following: A fraction of blood (up to 22ml in our practice) is drawn from the individual patient into a syringe (depends on the extent of hair loss). This is a relatively small amount compared to blood donation. The blood then is spun in a centrifuge to separate its components (White & Red Blood Cells, Platelet Rich Plasma and Platelet Poor Plasma). The Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) is collected into a syringe. The PRP is then injected into a treatment area (the scalp for hair loss). The basis behind PRP is that growth factors and other proteins within platelets promote healing and induce tissue regeneration and rejuvenation. Platelets contain growth factors and biologically active molecules that are normally released when platelets are outside of blood vessels such as when a person gets a cut and starts to bleed into surrounding tissue. Injecting PRP into the subdermal fat induces platelet degranulation (release of platelet contents) which causes tissue exposure to platelet growth factors. In plain terms, PRP delivers growth factors to stimulate hair follicles. To achieve best results, PRP is performed in a series of treatments. Typically, two to three treatments are performed once per month initially. It is often recommended that treatments take place every 6 months after the initial series of treatments to continue hair regeneration and maintain or enhance results. PRP has numerous other applications in dermatology – the most common of which is as an adjunct to microneedling for skin rejuvenation or treatment of acne scars. However, PRP’s greatest potential may be as a treatment to help grow or maintain hair. At Premier Dermatology and Mohs Surgery of Atlanta, we are committed to offering scientifically backed, effective and state of the art treatments. Kathryn Filipek, PA-C has extensive cosmetic, surgical and medical dermatology experience and is responsible for the hair loss branch of our practice. If you are interested in exploring PRP and hair loss options, call today to make an appointment with Ms. Filipek. It is our privilege to take care of you and your family’s skin, vein, and hair care needs. premierdermatologyatlanta.com.

Sweet memories It was usually a Saturday morning when mom would fire up her 1979 Pontiac Safari station wagon, trimmed with woodgrain paneling on the sides and tailgate, and ferry a prepubescent me to the SunCADILLAC JACK beam Bread Factory Podcast Host cadillac@appenmediagroup.com Outlet in Hickory, North Carolina. Side bar: remember the luggage rack and faux wood spoiler and ashtrays in all four doors? And the steering column with the button on the side to key your hazard lights, plus the larger-than-life gear shift? The smells of sugar hit you as soon as the door opened nearly triggering a diabetic shock. Mom would buy the Pecan Swirls for breakfast before church on Sunday. I didn’t like pecans, but had a love affair with sugar, cinnamon and bread, so I would unroll my Swirl(s) and wipe each clean of nuts with a single finger swipe. Sometimes, I would attempt to reroll my Swirl(s) but sometimes had to sacrifice the roll for a wad because Dad would already be in the Safari wagon laying down on the horn since he had to be there early to dress in his choir robe. The store smacked of bread and

On one of my afternoon drives this week, I did a sudden U-turn when I discovered a Tastykake/Nature’s Own Bakery Outlet near Post Road and Canton Highway. It took me back to a simpler time. My mind began to explode with nostalgia. My mama was standing in that store with me this week warning me about touching, clarifying why we didn’t need Honey Buns and giving me grinding instructions that I was not to “smell the bread” which was one of my favorite things to do. I left with some Donut Sticks, Toast Chee crackers, hotdog buns and a mix of
4/$5 Glazed Pies like cherry, lemon and apple. But the biggest score that afternoon was the memories with my mom. I called her when I got back to my truck and told her of my mining for sweet cakes. I didn’t know we made weekly trips to the Sunbeam Bread Factory Outlet because money was tight and sometimes non-existent growing up. It didn’t matter, nor did I understand, why we would have sandwiches using the just bought and highly discounted loaf of white bread for three nights a row. Now I know it’s because it was going to go bad in four days. Solution Memories. D U A L
