The City of Sandy Springs has begun preparing its 2009 Annual Action Plan under the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program for the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.
Sandy Springs Citizens may present ideas to the Mayor and City Council on how the city might use its 2009 CDBG funds at a public hearing on Tuesday, February 3. The meeting will begin at 6 p.m.
The City received $540,875 in 2008 CDBG funds and anticipates receiving approximately the same amount in 2009. More information on this program can be found on the City’s website, www.sandyspringsga.org.
Places to Love: BLUE STONE LOFTS

Lofts are great places to live whether you are a Young Professional or an Empty-Nester and everything in between! The Blue Stone Lofts real estate complex in Sandy Springs, GA is adjacent to Heritage Green Entertainment Lawn and City Walk. This means you are in walking distance to the fine restaurants, shops, and entertainment venues well-known in Sandy Springs. But you are spared from the noise and parking congestion with the deeded, covered parking spaces allotted for the loft units.

Where in Greater Atlanta can you go for the best shops, restaurants, and homes while only being minutes from downtown? Sandy Springs! Sandy Springs, GA, home to Fortune-500 companies and the “TURTLES”, is a relatively new city in Atlanta’s metropolitan area that has experienced both growth and expansion even in the midst of a nationwide real estate decline. Along the popular and well-traveled Roswell Rd., you will easily notice the new restaurants and shops, the chic remodeling of various storefronts, and even the contemporary re-development of the Prado shopping plaza.
Sandy Springs, Your Vote Matters!

If you are like me and have heard how there are over 800 people each day standing in line to vote before the Nov. 4th election day, then you may be curious and even a little stand-offish towards what Nov. 4th will actually hold. Will it be lines and more lines with only a few computers for the thousands that will hope to make their voice heard?
In the last presidential election, I remember being in line for almost 3 hours and it did not have as much fanfare as this. So if you want to beat the biggest crowd on election day, then take advantage of this week’s advance voting option:
