    Lots of trees on Medlock Bridge Rd are being removed in an aggressive manner. According to one of the workers at the site, the Billboard is to be 65' feet high. Action Outdoor has permission to go up to 80' feet.

    Even with the spectacular height of Sixty Five Feet, above the tree-line, the Billboard company took advantage of a clause in the settlement to remove trees, to improve the view corridor. The trees would have blocked the 5 feet diameter, super-structure pole, the sign will be high above.

    These trees were trimmed yearly, so they would not interfere with the power lines.

    Each time you pass a BodkerBoard, think about how you will vote in the fall. I know we are in my home.

    How wonderful..... beautiful trees that absorb CO2 and make oxygen are replaced by uglier than heck billboards.

    Absolute eye sore!! Every time I pass this monstrosity my blood boils. Cut down trees, build more strip malls, and erect more signs...all the ingredients to transform Johns Creek into Placelessness, USA.

    Thanks JC government for permitting numerous package stores, vapor shops, magic fingers massage parlors, and now we get to have billboards. As our city continues its slide to decadence, what do you have in store for us next - strip clubs, adult novelty shops?
