The New & Wonderful Peachtree Corners Of Gwinnett County
July 17th, 2012 categories: Gwinnett County, Peachtree Corners, Utilities/Vendors
Peachtree Corners is a city in western Gwinnett County, Georgia. It is a northern suburb of Atlanta and located east of Dunwoody and south of Johns Creek. Out of all of Atlanta’s northern suburbs, Peachtree Corners is the only one that was developed as a planned community.
In early 2010, it was announced that the United Peachtree Corners Civic Association was pursuing the incorporation of Peachtree Corners. The move was spurred by a failed attempt of the City of Norcross to annex a portion of Technology Park, an area located within the boundaries of Peachtree Corners.
In a referendum held on November 8, 2011, voters in Peachtree Corners voted to incorporate as Gwinnett County’s 16th city, and, with a population of 34,274, its largest.
Municipal operations began on July 1, 2012
The United States Postal Service operates the Peachtree Corners Post Office. Despite this, as of April 2012, the Peachtree Corners Zip code 30092 is still listed as Norcross by default, and Berkeley Lake as acceptable. There is also the zip code 30360, which will be included in the new city of Peachtree Corners.

|City of Milton Georgia Terminates Services Contract
January 8th, 2011 categories: Fulton County, Milton, Utilities/Vendors
The City of Milton Georgia terminates its services contract and will now be run by its own City employee’s.
When Milton Georgia became a city and was formed in 2006, a private management company was brought in to manage the transition and control the day to day functions that are vital of any city bureaucracy. The company, CH2M Hill, out of Denver, Colorado, provided the city staff positions, except public safety, city manager and city council.
For More About The City Of Milton
The reason for the termination started to take hold when the economy turned downward. The city’s contract called for a lump sum payment of 7 million dollars due each year. Unfortunately, with less revenue due to falling property taxes, the city of Milton was looking to trim the budget.
When the city of Milton tried re-negotiating the contract with C2HM Hill, the company advised that the contract was non-negotiable. Coupled with that, there were automatic escalations for each additional year the city did business with CH2M Hill, to the tune of 8.2 million for the year 2011, with no increase in performance or services by CH2M Hill to the city of Milton.
Miltons total budget was approximately 17 million this year. With the removal of the private management company, Milton is now run by it’s own citizens, who in this author’s opinion, make the finest employee’s. What are your thoughts?
