• How do I request repair of street sign/traffic signal/pot hole?

  Contact the Public Works Department at (678) 382-6850. Please provide as much information as you can about the location with either exact addresses or nearest cross street. The more information you are able to give us, the easier it is for us to take care of the issue. 

• How long does it take to complete a service request?

  The goal of the Public Works Dept. is to complete all routine maintenance requests within 30 days. We prioritize work orders based on the date of the request and the importance of the request to public safety. In cases of unusual weather, a backlog of work orders may develop as our regular work crews will respond to emergency needs.

• How do I find out if/when my street will be repaved?

  Dunwoody is completing pavement condition assessment of all the roads within the city. A summary of this assessment will be available on the city’s website in 2010. Funding for road maintenance and resurfacing can vary from year to year so it is difficult to project beyond the current year. However in general, the city plans to resurface the worst quality roads according to the assessment first.

• Where can I find information on Dunwoody’s Parks/Park Programs?

  Dunwoody has not started providing park services due to ongoing negotiations with DeKalb County to transfer the county’s park properties located within the city limits. The city anticipates that park services will begin sometime in 2010.
  

• What is the process for requesting traffic calming on my street?

  You will need to submit an Initial Interest Form, please contact us at (678) 382-6850 and we will get you the form and explain the process to you.
