The Auburn City Council approved a contribution of $500,00 to the Lee County roundabout construction project and more at Tuesday’s meeting
The Auburn City Council plans to commit $500,000 toward the construction of a roundabout at the intersection of Society Hill Road and Moores Mill Road
Mayor Ron Anders and City Manager Megan Crouch will execute an intergovernmental funding agreement with Lee County for the joint roundabout construction project
“We appreciate the Lee County Commission and the staff at Lee County for working with the City of Auburn to make this happen,” Anders said in his city council recap.
Anders said that the intersection has become very busy and crowded because many individuals from the county come into Auburn to work and shop and believe the roundabout will relieve much of the traffic
The funding is included in the FY25 Capital Improvement Plan
The agreement was approved by the Lee County Commission at its February meeting
The city council also approved an agreement with Barge Design Solutions, Inc., for design, bid and construction phase services associated with the East University Drive culvert replacement at Summer Trees Drive in the amount of $315,000
The approval further authorizes an additional 10% of the contract amount at $31,500 as contingency for unforeseen circumstances
The project consists of replacing the corrugated metal culvert with a new concrete culvert and repaving along East University Drive at the Town Creek Crossing near Summertrees Drive
The project’s total capital budget is over $3.3 million
The city council approved two alcohol licenses for Greenawalt Hospitality
LLC for an event at the Auburn University Brown-Kopel Engineering Student Achievement Center and at the Auburn University Melton Center Black Alumni Awards and Sneaker Ball
A $31,342 contract with LexisNexis Risk Solutions was approved for the renewal of the Accurint Virtual Crime Center contract for the police department
The city council unanimously approved a zoning ordinance amendment

The City will allocate $889,000 in federal HOME Investment Partnerships Program funds to support the construction of an affordable housing community for seniors aged 55 and older
including 31 one-bedroom and 24 two-bedroom apartments
The funding commitment is contingent upon the project receiving an allocation of Low-Income Housing Tax Credits (LIHTC) from the Alabama Housing Finance Authority
LIHTC funding is a vital tool for creating affordable housing by offering tax credits to developers in exchange for building or rehabilitating units for low- to moderate-income residents
Arbours at Moores Mill II is a $19.5 million development by Birmingham-based Arbours at Moores Mill II
The project will reserve units for individuals at 50% and 60% of the Area Median Income (AMI) and maintain affordability for at least 20 years
Phase I of this project will be completed in summer 2025 and includes 80 units for seniors aged 55 and older
The City’s commitment of HOME program funds reflects its dedication to addressing affordable housing needs
By leveraging federal resources like LIHTC and HOME funds
Huntsville continues to enhance housing opportunities while fostering community growth and inclusivity
Huntsville’s Community Development department oversees and implements HOME programs and many others to support the vitality of neighborhoods
The goal is to stabilize lower-income neighborhoods
to economically empower lower-income persons and/or those living in lower-income neighborhoods
and to provide assistance to the special needs population in our community
Nearly a year after the Atlanta City Council green-lighted a project to remake one of Atlanta’s most rapidly developing corridors into a friendlier
more efficient place for non-motorists and drivers alike
the Howell Mill Road Complete Street project has entered a new phase of construction
It’s not the only people-friendly road overhaul to gain momentum this month west of downtown and Midtown
As visitors to Westside Provisions District and points north have likely noticed in recent weeks
the City of Atlanta’s Department of Transportation has begun installing pedestrian safety and signal improvements as part of the broader Howell Mill Road redo
That includes wider sidewalks and ADA-friendly curb replacements
along with median and resurfacing work in the corridor closer to Interstate 75
the next steps will see utility relocations—power
and telecommunications—along with three new traffic signal installations and continued curb
and driveway apron repairs and replacements
All work is being relegated to the hours between 9 a.m
The full scope of the Complete Streets project calls for resurfacing Howell Mill from just north of Collier Road down to Marietta Street
Along the route the city plans to synchronize traffic signals with fiber technology upgrades and build raised bike lanes from Forrest Street (about a block north of Atlanta Water Works) to all points south along Howell Mill
Other upgrades will focus on sidewalk repairs
and additional safety improvements such as roadway-grade bike lanes
and three new mid-block crossing are scheduled to be implemented
along with a new right-turn lane installation where Howell Mill meets Huff Road
The Atlanta City Council approved legislation in September to fund the full project
and construction partners P2K and Lefko Construction were picked in a joint venture as general contractors to build the street upgrades
The corridor’s upgrades aim to help accommodate a population influx in the area that’s created a wave of new businesses—and traffic snarls
the three-lane roadway snaking through neighborhoods such as Home Park
and Marietta Street Artery had been mostly unchanged in recent years
Howell Mill’s Complete Streets overhaul was once expected to begin in 2017—adding bike lanes
and new turn lanes—but was later axed from Renew Atlanta’s $250 million project list
the project still hadn’t been fully funded
According to ATLDOT’s most recent estimates
the Howell Mill project is expected to cost roughly $21 million
The target completion date is still listed as winter 2026
Nearby residents and Howell Mill drivers can expect to experience “significant disruption” from here until then
with intermittent lane closures being part of the process
ATLDOT reports this week that crews are mobilizing to begin construction on the Joseph E
another project west of the city center that will begin at Atlanta University Center and travel about a mile and ½ north
Lowery Boulevard plans call for raised and roadway bike lane installations
new signalized intersections and signal upgrades
The project’s scope spans from two blocks south of Martin Luther King Jr
between Clark Atlanta University and Booker T
“The corridor will become not just smoother but also safer for pedestrians and transit users,” ATLDOT officials wrote in an update this week

(Atlanta News First) - The Atlanta Police Department investigated a bomb threat at a YMCA Monday night
Sanders Family YMCA at Buckhead on Moores Mill Road NW
Police said nothing hazardous or dangerous was found at the facility
the winter holidays always mean plenty of home baking and a stop at Moores' Flour Mill
That's where shoppers will find ingredients including fresh-ground corn meal along with packages of pistachio nuts
The store displays more than a dozen varieties of flour
The small retailer attached to the business' sizeable production facility near the Redding Regional Airport even sells flour made from garbanzo beans
millet or spelt — with all of those products ground on site
"Thanksgiving and Christmas are traditional baking holidays and we definitely see an influx of retail business around that time of year," said Bob Moore Jr.
Starting off in a 'Quonset Hut'The business turns 50 years old in late November
It dates back to when the Moore family — father Bob
and his brother Ken — opened the flour mill off Highway 273 in a rented $150-a-month Quonset Hut
is now 70 years old and runs the much-expanded Redding company
located just north of Redding Regional Airport
where production and retail sales take place
He said the business' retail side continues to rock its vintage look with a focus on products that he said are popular with health-conscious home bakers who are into whole grains
"We feel like we're kind of selling old-fashioned kind of products
many generations — not a lot of the processing that takes place in modern
"We try to invoke that old-time feel to our product line."
There's a nostalgic air at the retail shop that's filled with decorations including a turn of the century-style wooden telephone with a long metal mouthpiece that is mounted on the wall behind the cash register
Labels affixed to packages of the mill's cranberry pecan granola and other products carry an illustration of an historic white mill building
complete with a giant waterwheel and a miller standing nearby
Even a wall calendar displayed near the store's register is dated 1893
sporting a photo from the historic Walter A
Wood mowing and reaping machine farm equipment company
"And so just the idea of taking something as common as flour and sort of build a little romance about it
just sort of seemed like the right thing to do."
when the family went to the bank to borrow $5,000 to get equipment installed
Moore said consumer interest in more healthful eating and whole grain products was only just taking off
This is going to pass.' That was 50 years ago
Other funds for the startup came from money raised from dismantling and selling 18 currogated metal grain bins the family bought for $200 apiece in Sutter County and sold at a profit
said he quit his jobs in logging and stocking newspaper boxes to focus on the family's milling venture full time
"we had days where nobody even came in and the whole time we were setting things up
just curious what was going on," said Moore
After he painted a sign and put it up on the building
we had a few products out on the shelf and somebody came in and bought a bag of flour."
I was paying my mother 50 cents an hour and my brother and I were both paying our wives 50 cents an hour to come in and package and do the bookkeeping — you know
the things that families do to get businesses started."
Moores' Flour Mill moved to its second location
a 10,000-square-foot building that still stands at 1605 Shasta St
an area then just outside the city's busy retail hub before the opening of Mt
"That was a real ideal location for a long time," said Moore
who added that all six of his children had worked in the mill or store in the past
The complex produced the various kinds of flour it sold to walk-in customers
The business expanded to having local bakeries bake bread using the mill's flour so Moores' could have fresh loaves for sale at their shop every morning
Then the Redding business started selling its flour products to local bakeries
Seeing the limitations of operating in a small town
they sought out bakery and mom-and-pop store customers across the region
"I'd get up three in the morning and drive over to Eureka
go all the way down the coast," making deliveries to independently-owned "hippie health food stores," Moore said
the Redding mill soon was supplying business customers from Sacramento to the San Francisco Bay Area
"That was a large part of my business here
was just delivering flour and beans and the different things that we made to the small stores," he said

said he bought out his father and brother's shares in the Redding milling company
But the elder Moore eventually started his own milling company
a Oregon brand that is widely carried in large grocery chains nationwide
the Oregon company is not connected with Moores' Flour Mill in Redding
The change from a retail operation to one producing and selling products mostly wholesale left the Redding business again needing more space
they opened a 65,000-square-foot manufacturing and retail complex on an 11-acre site south of Redding on Mill Lane
but the flour mill continued to run its much smaller retail store downtown at the time
During the COVID-19 pandemic, when the virus put Moore in the hospital, the Shasta Street location was closed on Jan
2021 and all the Moores' Flour Mill operations relocated to the new complex
Noted Moore: Staffers went from "listening to trains going by all day long to listening to planes take off behind us here."
They've got changes in store for the new year
Some new whole grain products will launch in January
adding to the store's already-popular offerings of buttermilk pancake and cornbread mixes
"We're in the process of expanding our product line
we'll have everything in place and we're really going to start promoting the retail
I think there's a large potential there that we haven't taken advantage of
People are still living in a modern world and time is of the essence
so there is a convenience factor that we recognize," said Moore."I intend to go back and refocus on that," he said

It was the second-best finish in program history
Pratt has spent the past four-plus seasons working under current head coach Melissa Luellen

2022 at 3:39 pm ETA farmhouse would be turned into a community center at Creekside
a proposed active adult townhouse community on Moores Mill Road
(Elizabeth Janney/Patch)(Elizabeth Janney/Patch)BEL AIR
MD — A developer is proposing 124 single-family attached homes with garages on Moores Mill Road to accommodate housing for those who are 55 and up
The older adult community would be located at 1112 Moores Mill Road
officials said nobody under 19 years old could live there
During a community input meeting this week on the project
residents in the area said they were concerned about traffic and flooding
The site is 58 acres, and 42 acres would be open space, plans show
While the zoning would allow for 407 homes
engineer Daniel Striker said the developers want to keep most of the site as green space and to stick with 124 attached homes
the active adult community would include 73 villas that are 28 feet wide and 51 homes that are 24 feet wide
Each house would be about 1,800 square feet
The entrance to the community would not be aligned with Southampton Middle School
several residents said they were concerned about traffic
which comes to a standstill on Moores Mill Road when school starts and ends
One area noted in particular was the crosswalk near the school
"I talked to someone who almost hit a child there," said Lynne McMennamin
She said she hoped that would be considered as developers continue planning
according to Amy DiPietro of Morris & Ritchie Associates
She said seven intersections will be considered near Creekside
The traffic study will be submitted in May
before the Harford County Development Advisory Committee meeting
Currently project officials are targeting the June 15 meeting
Several Moores Mill Road residents said flooding was problematic and wondered what the plans were for stormwater management
"There is a terrible problem with flooding,” said Jennifer Stuart
it’s not just up to the bridge — it’s over the bridge." She said she had waited out storms near the Greenbrier Shopping Center across the street since the road was covered in water
Project officials said they would be following all requirements for stormwater management
Bill Montanary of Falstaff Court suggested putting the development where Eva Mar was
since infrastructure is in place at that site but construction has stopped
I think it’s a bad spot," Montanary said of the plan to put Creekside on Moores Mill Road
The property where Creekside is located is under contract but has not closed yet
according to Elm Street representative Michael Charlton
While Charlton is developing the single-family home neighborhood of Eva Mar
he said he is not the developer of Carsins Run at Eva Mar
Related: Carsins Run At Eva Mar Will Not Be Built: Harford County Official
Montanary said he had a "really big problem" with the fact that Harford County had not done anything to preserve the Southhampton farmhouse
"This thing should be on a historical register," Montanary said
Creekside representatives said their plan was to make the farmhouse into a clubhouse for use by the residents of the active adult community
"You shouldn't be helping them to build the damn thing," Montanary said to those at the meeting Monday night at St
"You should be finding a way to stop them."
said the zoning had been in place for decades for this property to be developed
"This property has been zoned for this use for at least 40 years,” Young said
“We don’t need any approvals" as far as the use
He said he attended a hearing like this for Amyclae years ago where residents were up in arms about traffic and the impact to their community
It’s private property...They can do what they want with their house
I just want you to understand the legal parameters here
Saying we don’t want this project doesn’t mean it’s going to work."
When development was proposed in the area in 2007
Young said there was a question raised about a gravesite
"There is not and never has been a graveyard on the property," Young said
"We had to have experts come in with these machines that shoot waves down into the ground that can determine whether or not there was a graveyard." He said a court order made it official that "there are no gravesites on the property and development can proceed."
The community input meeting was the first step of a process that could be about three years
"It takes about 18 months from this point until plans are approved and construction can get started,” Spiker said at the community input meeting Monday
After processing the feedback, project planners will next appear before the Harford County Development Advisory Committee. See the plans for Creekside online
then construction would also take about 18 months until the homes are move-in ready
PREVIOUS REPORT: A community input meeting is slated for 6 p.m. on Monday, April 25, at St. Matthew Lutheran Church, 1200 East Churchville Rd. People can dial in at 646-749-3122 or listen online

Shops would rise in what developers call the most retail-starved (but swiftly growing) section of Atlanta
Developers Eden Rock describe the industrial/post-industrial/suddenly residential “Upper Westside” area as the most retail-starved section of Atlanta
So they’re cooking up a big steamy plate of shopping center
Dubbed “Westside Village at Moores Mill,” the parking-friendly project is planned where Marietta Boulevard meets Moores Mill Road
about midway between Vinnings and Atlantic Station
The Westside Village would also be adjacent to the Publix-anchored center that’s been in the works for years on Moores Mill—and what developers tabulate as 3,000 new residences built in the area in the past decade (with many more in the pipeline)
plans call for virtually every ingredient in the mixed-use enchilada—mostly retail but with offices and 18 townhomes
The project is expected to debut in the spring of 2018, per an exceptionally slick marketing video.
Senior test kitchen editor Shilpa Uskokovic reflects on the ways Bob’s Red Mill made specialty grains and flours more accessible
and the impact he had on American baking culture
but I remember recognizing the same white hair and bearded face from the package of his products
How many times have I seen that face in grocery store aisles
that the founder of this huge company would still take the time to be at this cooking class with nine chefs
Moore’s passing this week made me think of the first time I found Bob’s Red Mill products in my local grocery store way back in 2013
I was struck by just how many products this single company offered
That was when I was working in restaurants such as Jean-Georges and Marea
and I remember being shocked to see the same ingredients we used in a professional kitchen
It sat next to the niche grains and hard-to-find flours like amaranth and hazelnut flour that
were mostly confined to health food stores
Moore may have passed away, but his legacy will live on in every gluten-free buckwheat cake or batch of chocolate chip oatmeal cookies I bake

Mayor Tommy Battle joined the North Region Engineer for the Alabama Department of Transportation for a celebratory ribbon cutting today on the newly completed stretch of U.S
The $9 million road improvement project is one of six major road projects scheduled for completion under the City’s $250 million cost-sharing “Restore Our Roads” agreement with Governor Robert Bentley and ALDOT
Roadwork began in fall 2014 and was completed well ahead of schedule this year
“This project would not have been possible without our partnership with ALDOT,” said Mayor Battle
“Huntsville has made the commitment to pay half of the cost for critical roads that move traffic
72 represents a key corridor for our daily commuters as they enter and exit I-565.”
Highway 72 East included an additional westbound lane from Shields Road to Maysville Road as well as a third left turn lane on U.S
The road work improves traffic flow on U.S
Highway 72 during peak commute hours and helps alleviate congestion on Moores Mill as drivers travel from Winchester and Mt
“Through the partnership agreement between the Alabama Department of Transportation and the City of Huntsville
local funds assist ALDOT in projects such as this to improve infrastructure for the benefit of the citizens of Huntsville and the surrounding area,” said Johnny Harris
North Region Engineer for the Alabama Department of Transportation
“By increasing capacity and improving intersection functionality
and the additional left turn lane for Moore’s Mill Road from eastbound U.S
72 will aid commuters as well as commercial and industrial developments along this corridor
ALDOT greatly appreciates the city’s cooperation and assistance with expediting this project.”
Additional Restore Our Roads projects under way include the South Parkway Overpass
Martin Luther King extension – Northern Bypass
and improvements to University Drive (Highway 72 West)
This project created a new public road for commuters from Moores Mill Road to existing businesses in Chase Industrial Park and includes a new traffic signal at a new intersection on Moores Mill Road near the railroad track
Access road from Moores Mill Road north of RR track to PPG site with a new traffic signal
Construction began in summer 2017 and was completed in under a year
Source of Funding: Local & State – Alabama Department of Transportation (ALDOT)
This is a Restore Our Roads project

Alabama – The first thing that becomes visible as cars approach the new $16 million Moores Mill Intermediate School on Walker Lane in Meridianville is the school's bright blue roof
school officials and elected officials converged under that roof on Monday evening as the school held its ribbon-cutting and open house
The air buzzed with excitement as parents and their children filed into the building
many coming straight from the nearby Lynn Fanning Elementary
where their students' younger siblings were preparing for their own first day of school on Tuesday
Parents and students seemed equally impressed by the new school
"I like it; it's really big and all the students can fit in it," said 9-year-old Evelyn Carter
who will start the fourth grade at Moores Mill on Tuesday
Evelyn will be coming over from Lynn Fanning
which will lose its fourth and fifth grades to Moores Mill
director of elementary education for Madison County Schools
said Lynn Fanning will be a K-3 school this year
Moores Mill will also be a new home to Hazel Green Elementary's fifth graders and Meridianville Middle's sixth graders
Hazel Green will be K-4 this year and Meridianville Middle will be a 7-8 school like Buckhorn Middle
which was built with a capacity for 800 students
wills start the year with about 625 students
is coming over from Hazel Green Elementary
When asked what part of the new school he liked best
said she thought the entire school turned out well
but said she appreciates the security of the front entrance
an employee at Nola Van Peursem Architects
which was designed by the Huntsville-based firm
builders and district officials got a lot of kudos at Monday's event for the speed with which the school was built
chief operations officer for the school district
said he was amazed that the school was completed in time for the school year
"I'm loving it; it looks like they did a really good job with it," Carter said
"My thought at the beginning of the summer was
'They'll never get this done in time.' But they did."
Madison County Superintendent David Copeland had similar sentiments during the ribbon cutting
"To get a school up in less than a year is unheard of," Copeland said
Board member Dan Nash told those present to go online and find Wilkerson's email address to send him a note of thanks
"He and his people have worked tremendously hard," Nash said
Copeland also praised Wilkerson and his staff for the new school
"This facility will meet our needs for years to come," Copeland said
