City of Sandy Springs to Host Sidewalk Improvements Public Open House

The City of Sandy Springs invites the public to attend an open house regarding Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funded sidewalk projects. There will not be a formal presentation, but staff will be available to discuss the projects and answer questions.

The projects aim to improve pedestrian accessibility in the City. Information on the following sidewalk projects will be shared:
