You are correct....I'm in ATL...and they are allowing pools to be refilled. Our neighborhood pool isn't drained during the winter; just covered up with a tarp. We're above average for rainfall this year already, so our county (Fulton) and our city relented and we get our pools. Although, our HOA had already discussed and agreed to truck in water from TN, if necessary!
Ya i just remembered that when i was working out at the ski resort guests from atl were complaining about not going to be able to swim this summer. I knew they had got alot of rain since then though.
If your in fulton county you cant be to far from my sister.
Alpharetta. But we hope to join with other cities and create our own county soon.....I'm sure it will take time but it will be worth it!
To Jim-I get what you're saying, but I'm used to the heat...and having a pool a block away helps tremendously. I'm your polar opposite...I lived in MSP for 2 winters and that is all I could take. I can't stand the long, cold winters! I'll take my hot, humid summers and mild winters from now on.
I was surprised that Alpharetta is a part of fulton county. Isn't Atlanta downtown part of fulton county? I live 10 miles away from downtown and I live in Dekalb county.

Fulton county is more vertical....long, sort of like the state of IL. You should check it out on a map, very weird. You are probably just east of Fulton county. Alpharetta and surrounding cities used to be in Milton County (many, many moons ago), the county disbanded and we were sucked up by Fulton...they were thrilled to get our tax dollars. We're thinking of splitting off again as they keep taking our tax dollars for projects in south Fulton county. I guess it's quite a process to form a new county, but our reps are working on it....
