Most other Roswell homes are on Fulton County water (770-640-3040), and Fulton County handles all sewer lines in the city (404-612-3061).

Creeks and low roads can flood within hours of a hard rain. Never drive or walk through moving water. Creek and river floodwater can carry sewage and septic runoff, so treat it as contaminated.
