I read the article about the stench in the Atlanta Highway/Browns Bridge area with interest and raised eyebrows. Kelly Randall said he was only made aware of it three weeks ago. I have lived off Browns Bridge Road nearly 14 years and this odor has been around for most of those years. Where’s everybody been?

I’ve heard it’s from the chicken processing plants but it smells like raw sewage. So when is anything going to be done about it? Whenever I’m outside and this odor is in the air, I just hold my breath until I get inside and shut the door. For the health of all affected, somebody get on the ball!
