City of Peachtree Corners and City Marshal's Office Implements New Program to Curtail Vandalism
Thursday, January 25th, 2024
Over the past 45 days, several vandalism-related events have occurred in the stairwells of the Town Center parking deck. As a result of the vandalism, the Marshal’s Office has developed and implemented both a short-term and long-term solution.
As an immediate action, the Marshal’s Office placed temporary motion-activated cameras in strategic locations within the Town Center parking deck stairwells. The placement of these cameras has led to the identification and capture of several of the individuals responsible for multiple incidents of tagging/graffiti that were occurring.
As a long-term solution, the City has installed video cameras that are equipped with geofencing, motion alerting, object detection, and speaker features to aid in the identification of suspects as well as curtail any future vandalism of the deck and stairwells.
More recently, the Marshal’s Office has seen additional tagging/graffiti spread to other areas of the Town Center property. The City has deployed temporary solutions to other areas that have led to the successful identification of several suspects responsible for these illegal activities.
The City of Peachtree Corners and the Marshal’s Office want the public to understand that safety is of the highest priority and the destruction and defacing of City property will not be tolerated. The City will continue to deploy the latest technologies and preventative strategies to ensure those who visit the Town Center feel safe and have the most pleasurable experience possible.
If any member of the public observes any illegal activity at the Town Center, the Forum Shopping Center, or any other locations within Peachtree Corners, we urge them to contact 911 and report the incident.
