How do we get the City of Dunwoody's attention?

After speaking with my very responsive City Councilman, and the Dunwoody North Civic Association, I was given the appropriate contact at City Hall, who was kind enough to share the steps that need to be followed in getting the City's attention.

1.  Identify the problem in an informal communication with the city.
2.  The City will then provide an "Initial Interest" form with some information, and a petition which requires 20% interested among those folks on the street that are requesting calming measures.  This is a timed endeavor, in which 45 days are given to return the form.
3.  Once the petition is received, an Engineering Study is conducted by the city to determine the nature, scope, or even existence of a significant problem.
4.  After a significant problem is identified, passive calming methods are suggested and implemented.
5.  Then meetings with homeowners occur and active methods are suggested.
6.  Preliminary designs are made, and a formal petition is sent to homeowners.
7.  If the petition garners 70% support, there will then be public hearing and council review, after which, if approval is granted, the design will be finalized, and construction will begin.

With regard to the Stonington Road issue, I am at the very beginning of Step 2, though I suspect gaining the interest of seven homeowners along this corridor will not be difficult.
