Can Anyone Explain THIS??

Wonder if these homes, found on Zillow.com, were factored into "The Lakeside Plan."

Would you pay that much for a home that is apparently on the easement of someone else's front yard?
They have full descriptions. They just are not physically there.

Looking to move to a certain school attendance zone so you can get the best education possible in DeKalb County, the worst large metropolitan county for education in one of the lowest ranked states for education in the country? If you answered yes, then you are exactly the kind of person who needs one of these beauties:

How about 1944 Silvastone Dr # 0, Decatur, GA 30033, 4 beds 2.5 baths-- sqft

FACTS

Single Family

Built in 1960

Of course we don't know how this home existed on this street in 1960 when all the others around it were built in 1966 or later. Maybe this WAS the one room school room where the kiddos used to go? Either way, it is a steal at $321,000 and you never worry about lawn care because you don't actually own anything. Your home exists on an imaginary lot between two existing homes, right on their front lawn! Sounds cozy! Don't forget the "-- sqft."

Not right for you? Then how about: 3330 Briarlake Rd, Decatur, GA 30033, 2 beds 2 baths

This 1,500 square foot single family home has 2 bedrooms and 2.0 bathrooms. It is located at 3330 Briarlake Rd Decatur, Georgia.

What the last home didn't have in terms of lot size, this home makes up for. 15.5 acres and built in 1863.

FACTS
Single Family
Built in 1863
Cooling: Central

Lot: 15.5 acres

We could go on and on, but you can just look at Zillow.

Tweak us out of LaVista Hills

This is a letter shared with the "Dekalb Strong" group. You can join the conversation at https://www.facebook.com/groups/DeKalbStrong . We didn't realize how easy tweaking was. “Tweak” and just like that, 2000 people are moved from one city proposal to another. (“LaVista Hills, Tucker border tweaked in Senate,” News, March 20). Our home is in Toco Hills on the southern edge of the proposed LaVista Hills and we’d like to be tweaked out of it. North and north central DeKalb County residents have become pawns in the misguided ambitions of a few. With all the changes made by the Senate and House, it’s vital the feasibility of these proposals be revisited. The LaVista Hills boundaries have bled commercial property to the Tucker proposal and Brookhaven’s annexation of Executive Park. As reconfigured, LaVista Hills is almost entirely residential. Even including Toco Hills shopping center and Northlake mall, there appears to be insufficient commercial or ind...

Welcome to Smoke Rise, Soon to be Tucker, GA

This could be the change that residents will see if Tucker 2015 is successful in getting its referendum nto a ballot and voters approve it. The driving force behind the city of Tucker has been the leadership within the community known as "Smoke Rise, GA." Smoke Rise residents currently have addresses that say "Stone Mountain, GA" and many of them worked hard in order to create a separate identity for themselves, petitioning the U.S. Post Office to change their official name to "Smoke Rise." While the Post Office did not agree to change the official name, they did agree to allow "Smoke Rise" as a recognized alternative to "Stone Mountain" that could be used interchangeably as long as it accompanied their 30087 zip code. It is important to note that these residents did not ask the Post Office to recognize their use of "Tucker" as an acceptable alternative. They asked to be called "Smoke Rise." It appears t...

DeKalb County School Board Member's Emails Show Support for Annexation

Here are just a few highlights of this investigative piece that was reported by Jeff Chirico, CBS Atlanta. Marshall Orson, a seated board member in DeKalb County, has to answer to some angry parents about his emails with supporters for "Together in Atlanta," a group pushing for annexation into the city of Atlanta. The annexation would take a DeKalb icon, the Druid Hills High School, and at least two elementary schools into the city limits of Atlanta, while still the residents would still technically reside in DeKalb County. The Fernbank Science Center and Museum, Callenwalde Fine Arts Center and other parts of DeKalb County would also become new residents of "Atlanta in DeKalb." State Rep. Karla Drenner (D - Avondale Estates) says she is shocked to learn that a school board member would seemingly favor something that could 'decimate' the school system. Annexation opponent Dawn Forman said Orson, as an elected board member, should be opposed t...
