Three Delk Road businesses pass alcohol compliance checks

by

According to Cobb Police, two businesses in the Delk Spectrum Shopping Center (2900 Delk Road, at Powers Ferry Road) and another nearby on Delk Road were part of an alcohol compliance check last Thursday, July 27.

All three of them passed the check—meaning they didn’t sell alcohol to an underage volunteer.

They were the Bowlero Lanes at 2749 Delk Road, and the Publix store and the Willy’s Mexicana Grill at Delk Spectrum.

The police compliance check also included several businesses in the Atlanta Road area, and three of them failed.

The checks are conducted by the Cobb Police Department’s Regulatory Services/Permits Unit.

Cobb to test outdoor warning sirens at noon Wednesday

by

If you hear sirens around noon today, this is the reason. Issued by Cobb County government:

Cobb County has more than 70 outdoor warning sirens to alert residents during a weather-related emergency, including ten sirens that can also broadcast voice messages.

The intent of warning sirens is to alert people who are outside that an imminent danger is approaching; they are not designed to be heard within a home or other building.

Cobb County conducts outdoor warning siren system tests at noon on the first Wednesday of each month, sounding the sirens for 3 to 5 minutes. In the event that there is inclement weather on the first Wednesday of the month, the test will be postponed until the following day, the first Thursday of the month.
