A new program allows Braselton residents to report issues to town staff via text.
According to a press release from the Town of Braselton, the program is not meant for emergency use, but rather to report issues such as potholes, litter, broken street signs and similar issues.
Through the program, residents can report a "problem, place and picture," by texting 706-654-5720, A staff member will then look into the issue and respond back to the sender to tell them the resolution.
Residents are asked to include a brief description of the problem, the location of the problem and a picture, if possible.
“One of the great things about living in a small town is the direct communication that residents can have with their local government,” Town Manager Jennifer Scott said in a prepared statement. “It’s a priority of town staff to be accessible to the public and to respond quickly to residents’ concerns. This new texting program helps us do that.”
To report illegal activity or emergencies, contact the Braselton Police Department or call 9-1-1.
