Suwanee City Council approves plan for $12 million park

The area will see a realignment of Main Street, which will shift around the park and exit onto Suwanee Dam Road at an existing traffic signal in hopes of improving the safety and traffic flow, which would allow the median break on Suwanee Dam Road to be closed.

About 15 acres along the existing Brushy Creek Greenway will remain undisturbed.

City officials recently sought feedback from residents and collected more than 1,000 in-person and online surveys of park users. There were four planning workshops, two design charrettes and other meetings and presentations.

The new park design is influenced by the style and quality of Town Center Park, but city officials said it won’t be a replica. Plans call for a a more prominent pedestrian connection to rework City Hall Park into a linkage of the two sites. The topography of Town Center Park West will allow it to overlook Town Center.

“The success of Town Center Park has exceeded all expectations,” Suwanee Mayor Jimmy Burnette said in a press release. “The park draws over 200,000 visitors annually to events, as well as regularly serving our 18,000 citizens. The new Town Center Park West will help ease the demand on the existing park and surrounding community.”

The park will feature a mixture of urban and rural environments, including:

• A roughly 900-foot, elevated signature bridge for pedestrian and bike use, which will span the entire park and cross an approximate one-acre water feature.

EVERY HOME IN PIERCE POINTE IS BOUND BY PROTECTIVE COVENANTS

Since its inception, Pierce Pointe was a community which was bound by covenants. However, under these original declarations homeowner's association membership was not mandatory, nor were there provisions set in place for placing liens against or fining covenant violators-- limiting the effectiveness of the HOA and their ability to maintain our community. In and around 2003, all that changed, when the Pierce Pointe board took on the project of having mandatory covenants created and enacted for our subdivison. A majority of residents voted mandatory covenants in place by signing in to participate in the newly drafted declarations which would govern Pierce Pointe. Those homes which did not become Pierce Pointe members under the new covenants continue to be protected under the original covenants, which continue to remain in effect for those homes-- although again, there are no provisions for placing liens or fining violating homes under these covenants.

Research shows the subdivisions with protective covenants have homes that routinely sell for higher prices than those subdivisions without mandatory covenants in place. Pierce Pointe, fortunately, has these covenants enacted. Everyone in the subdivision has joined the homeowner's association and is subject to the covenants.

One of the roles of the board is to help move our subdivision forward and your existing board is taking steps to move in that direction. Many people have questions regarding violation letters, architectural requests, and the like and fortunately our covenants are very explicit with what can and what cannot be done. Should you have questions about the covenants, HOA procedures, or what is or is not permissible, then please check the covenants and amended By-laws.

Both sets of declarations are available in the right sidebar for your perusal. You may need Adobe Acrobat Reader in order to view them, which can be obtained free at http://www.adobe.com/ .
