Kosher BBQ Contest Takes Over Brook Run in October!
Back in May, Dunwoody Food Truck Thursdays incorporated Kosher food trucks and related providers with MJCCA sponsorship. It was a smash! Largest turnout at FTT EVER. Playground was packed. Almost caused panic attacks over traffic and whether the neighboring community could handle it. (Just kidding - had to get a jab in on those who use "traffic" as an excuse to stall everything.) The only drawback was the guy with the beef ribs ran out before I could get to him.
Looks like we all get another chance at Beef Rib Perfection in October. The competition was posted at FTT and now it's official.
All info including team sign up, videos, the works is below. Remember, this is Kosher, so there are going to be more rules and regs than your typical BBQ fight to the finish.
Thanks to everyone for marking a day on my calendar when I don't have to cook!

Dunwoody City Tax Refunds are Coming
This letter arrived from City Hall this morning. If you believe you are entitled to a city tax refund, watch your mailbox or your mortgage escrow statement. Post in the comments if you've received yours.
Dunwoody, GA – August 17, 2015 – The City of Dunwoody completed the distribution and mailing of homestead exemption refund checks to all Dunwoody homeowners who qualified for a residential property assessment freeze exemption for the purpose of city taxes over the three year period from 2012 to 2014.
Dunwoody homeowners qualifying for the refund will receive a check according to individual annual tax payment methods. Refund payments were distributed either directly to the taxpaying homeowner or to the homeowner’s mortgage company escrow account. All affected homeowners were sent a letter from the City of Dunwoody indicating refund amounts and distribution method.
Refund payment amounts will vary according to individual property assessment increases incurred over the three year period. The City is requesting all qualifying homeowners cash or deposit the checks, regardless of the refund amount, to help ensure accurate reconciliation.
The City of Dunwoody and the DeKalb County Tax Commissioner’s Office examined residential tax records from 2012 to 2014 and determined approximately one in five residential parcels within the city were not properly credited with the property assessment freeze exemption. The city then worked closely with Tax Commissioner’s Office to issue individual refund checks and expedite check distribution and mailing.
Dunwoody homeowners who filed and qualified for a homestead exemption and received an increased property assessment during 2012, 2013 and/or 2014 above what their assessed home value was in 2009 have been mailed a refund check. Approximately 2,748 residential parcels were affected based on analysis of the Dunwoody residential tax records for the three year period. The city issued a total of approximately $150,000 plus interest in property assessment freeze refunds for affected residential parcels.
For questions or concerns regarding property assessment freeze refunds please contact City of Dunwoody Finance Director Chris Pike at chris.pike@dunwoodyga.gov
