Tips for this town

• Fulton County supplies drinking water here. Its emergency repairs page gives 770-640-3040 for a water problem and 404-612-3061 for a sewer problem in North Fulton.
• The city's contact page treats a downed power line, ice and flooding as 911 matters, not calls to City Hall.
• Electric service comes from Georgia Power or Sawnee Electric, according to the city's new-resident page, and the bill shows which one.
• Some Johns Creek addresses carry Suwanee's ZIP, 30024, so give the street and the city when you call.
• When the source is stopped but the carpet or a wall is still wet, call (678) 572-1407.

Rain, freezes and storms

The Johns Creek 3.0 SSW gauge has NOAA 1991-2020 normals of 54.98 inches a year. July leads at 5.65 inches, March follows at 5.05 and October trails at 3.90. Cumming 2 N, a long-record station to the north, logs a low of 32 degrees or colder on 19.0 days in January and 15.2 in December. A gauge reads its own spot, so rainfall at your address may differ from what it records.

City offices and paperwork

Johns Creek's permit technicians are at 11360 Lakefield Drive and answer at 678-512-3250. The city's page on whether a permit is needed lets a non-structural minor repair under $2,500.00 go ahead without one only if the Building Official agrees. It warns that work done without a required permit can bring stop-work orders and fines. The same page says to call the number above with questions. Drinking water here comes from Fulton County, a separate office from the city's.
