This ordinance shall apply to all public and private property within the City of Peachtree
Corners.
Section 18-217. – Compatibility with other regulations
This ordinance is not intended to interfere with, abrogate, or annul any other ordinance, rule or
regulation, stature, or other provision of law. The requirements of this ordinance should be

restrictions different from those imposed by any other ordinance, rule or regulation, or other
provision of law, whichever provisions are more restrictive or impose higher protective
standards for human health or the environment shall be considered to take precedence.
Section 18-217. – Severability
If the provisions of any article, section, subsection, paragraph, subdivision or clause of this
ordinance shall be judged invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, such order of
judgment shall not affect or invalidate the remainder of any article, section, subsection,
paragraph, subdivision or clause of this ordinance.

Litter means any organic or inorganic waste material, rubbish, refuse, garbage, trash, hulls,
peelings, debris, grass, weeds, ashes, sand, gravel, slag, brickbats, metal, plastic, and glass
containers, broken glass, dead animals or intentionally or unintentionally discarded materials of
every kind and description which are not "waste" as such term is defined in O.C.G.A., §16-7-51,

Public or private property means the right of way of any road or highway; any body of water or
watercourse or the shores or beaches thereof; any park, playground, building, refuge, or
conservation or recreation area; timberlands or forests; and residential, commercial, industrial, or
farm properties.

Hello,
Today I received a phone call (complaint) from Patricia Gault owner of K&S Countertops at 6915
Gilliland Lane. She that the situation with the homeless guy staying on the vacant lot at the corner of
Gilliland Ln and 5th Street is getting out of hand. He has trash and debris all the way out to the curb
and his two pit bulls are terrorizing the neighborhood, especially her business. There was an incident
last week when the pit bulls gain access to the interior of their suite and were running around inside
the suite and now customers and employees don’t feel safe . She would like to know status of the
case and how the city is addressing the situation because the situation is progressively getting worst.

Phil,
Ms. Denise would like to know what is the update for 3980 Fifth St Parcel, see below inquiry:
My name is Denise Gilleland and I reside at 4256 Gilleland Ln., cell # 678-986-3931. The address
listed above for parcel #R6251A002 is a vacant property that has been over grown for years as the
property owners have not maintained it. I know that the property taxes have not been paid for this
parcel since 2016 (2017, 2018 and 2019 are unpaid). The issue is for the past 8 years there is a white
male vagrant that has been staying on this property. The only building structure on this property is a
concrete block storage bldg with a make shift door. This vagrant is a menace to society. He has (2)
pit bulldogs that he keeps in this bldg and they bark constantly. He also lets them run loose. I have
had numerous encounters with these dogs as to where they have chased me into my house and
jumped on my storm door at me. They tried climbing over my chain link fence after me & my dog in
my backyard. The latest incident where these dogs were running loose in the street is on 10/05/19.
The man was calling for them but they were running loose. These dogs are aggressive as well as this
man. He is often walking the streets intoxicated and yelling obscene words. He is burning up there in
the wooded lot and has caught the property on fire twice this year.I have called 911 and a neighbor
has called 911 for both incidents. I have contacted 911 & Animal Control several times over the
years about the vagrant & the dogs and all they keep telling me is that the property owner has to be
the one to have them removed. That legally, they can't do it. The taxes have not been paid since
2016 so who is the property owner? Why is it that this vagrant has more rights than I do? I should
not have to live in fear of being attacked by these vicious dogs. I can't do anything in my own yard
because of this. I am in fear that he is going to catch the woods on fire and it will catch my home or
property on fire. I need someone to contact me about this situation. What do I need to do to have
this situation resolved? Contacting Animal Control and the Gwinnett County Police.
Today:
What is the status on this complaint? I had an incident Sunday 11/03/19 with the (2) pit bull dogs
running loose and the vagrant owner was walking up & down the street calling for them. One of the
dogs (the black & white one) was chasing a boy that was riding on a skateboard. What steps can I
take to have these dangerous dogs picked up from this vacant property?
