Here are two of the tickets submitted to COB in September 2021 - they are
listed as closed and were not resolved as listed in the tickets.

2746 never had appropriate drainage plans for:

   1. Variance application/approval from 2019
   2. Dekalb's sewer easement approval never saw drainage plans.
   3. *There was no approval from DeKalb county to dig around and burry
   pipes within 10 feet of the sewer easement*
   4. The building permit was still issued
   5. The expansion was built anyways, and a CO was not awarded
   6. A fence permit was issued using the invalid building permit. 2746
   then continue to place the unfished side abutting my property. Code
   enforcement rejected my CE21-01033 and my emails about how 2 fence sides
   of the 3 abutting properties were done correctly but my side was not and
   unfished.
   7. 2746 site revision was denied 10.29
   8. 2746 site revision was rejected 12.1


*How many revisions and code violations do the owners of 2746 get while
they have made my property unsafe, unusable, hazardous, and has
blatantly caused a continued nuisance?*

As you can see in the photos/videos, 2746's expansion and increased
impervious surfaces (42% coverage well over COB 35%) has created
astronomical flooding as they reburied new and additional pipes to where
his previous pipes hidden underground had been jet streaming & diverting
his stormwater damaging and devaluing my property.

I look forward to hearing your thoughts.

Best regards,
Sarah
