Be Part of Improving Security in North Buckhead!
Public safety is a top priority of North Buckhead residents. A coalition of Buckhead citizen and business groups, elected officials, APD Zone 2, and other interested parties recently released the Buckhead Security Plan. Click here to see the full plan. While this plan is preliminary and this effort will be ongoing, some initial actions have already been taken including the recent ordinance intended to eliminate street racing and increased police vigilance of late-night activity near certain Buckhead night clubs.
NBCA is organizing a Public Safety Committee to spearhead North Buckhead’s involvement in these planning efforts as well as to evaluate specific security initiatives for North Buckhead. If you are interested in joining this committee, please email NBCA.publicsafety1@gmail.com.

Protecting Your Pants and Garden from Frost
Atlantans live at a moderate latitude and at a higher elevation than the vast majority of American cities, so one of the benefits of living here is our change of seasons.
But winter can damage your carefully cultivated plantings if left completely to the elements. Here are a few suggestions (courtesy of Ruralsprout.com and the University of Georgia Extension Service) to help you protect your plants and winter vegetables when air temperature below 39 degrees or freezing weather is expected.
