Election District 2 shall include the area lying within the following described lines and boundaries: Beginning at the point where the centerline of Chamblee-Dunwoody Road would intersect the centerline of Harts Mill Road if the centerline of Harts Mill Road was extended easterly in a straight line; running thence southeasterly along the centerline of Chamblee Dunwoody Road to a point where the centerline of Chamblee-Dunwoody Road would intersect the centerline of Pierce Drive if the centerline of Pierce Drive was extended easterly in a straight line; thence running westerly and southwesterly along the centerline of Pierce Drive to the point where the centerline of Pierce Drive intersects the centerline of Peachtree Boulevard; thence running southwesterly along the centerline of Peachtree Boulevard to a point where the centerline of Peachtree Boulevard would intersect the centerline of Chamblee-Tucker Road if the centerline of Chamblee-Tucker Road was extended northerly in a straight line; thence running southeasterly along the centerline of Chamblee-Tucker Road to a point where the centerline of Chamblee-Tucker Road intersects the centerline of Peachtree Road, thence running northeasterly along the centerline of Peachtree Road to a point where the centerline of Peachtree Road would intersect the centerline of Chamblee-Dunwoody Road if the centerline of Chamblee-Dunwoody Road was on the same grade as Peachtree Road rather than running beneath a bridge which carries Peachtree Road over the Chamblee-Dunwoody Road roadbed; thence continuing southeasterly from said point of intersection along the centerline of Chamblee-Dunwoody Road to a point where the centerline of Chamblee-Dunwoody Road intersects the centerline of Shallowford Road; running thence northerly along the centerline of Shallowford Road to a point where the centerline of Shallowford Road intersects the eastern corporate limit line; running thence northerly and northwesterly along the eastern corporate limit line to a point where the eastern corporate limit line intersects the southerly right-of-way line of Interstate Highway 285; running thence westerly and northwesterly along the southerly right-of-way line of Interstate Highway 285 to a point where the southerly right-of-way line of Interstate Highway 285 intersects the centerline of Chamblee-Dunwoody Road; running thence southerly and southeasterly along the centerline of Chamblee-Dunwoody Road to a point where the centerline of Chamblee-Dunwoody Road would intersect the centerline of Harts Mill Road if the centerline of Harts Mill Road was extended easterly in a straight line, this point being the point of beginning of this Election District 2.

(3)

Election District 3 shall include the area lying within the following described lines and boundaries: Beginning at the point where the centerline of New Peachtree Road intersects the eastern right-of-way line of Clairmont Road; running thence easterly along the centerline of New Peachtree Road to a point where the centerline of New Peachtree Road intersects the centerline of Chamblee-Tucker Road; running thence southerly along the centerline of Chamblee-Tucker Road to a point where the centerline of Chamblee-Tucker Road intersects the centerline of Buford Highway; running thence southwesterly along the centerline of Buford Highway to a point where the centerline of Buford Highway would intersect the centerline of Woodside Way if the centerline of Woodside Way was extended northerly in a straight line; from said point running thence southeasterly along the centerline of Woodside Way to a point where the centerline of Woodside Way would intersect the centerline of Shallowford Road if the centerline of Woodside Way was extended southerly in a straight line; from said point running thence southerly along the centerline of Shallowford Road to a point where the centerline of Shallowford Road intersects the northerly right-of-way line of the Northeast Expressway (inclusive of access road) (a/k/a Interstate Highway I-85) in Land Lot 196 of the 18th District of DeKalb County, Georgia; thence following said northerly right-of-way line in a southerly and southwesterly direction to a point where the said northerly right-of-way line of the Northeast Expressway (inclusive of access roads) intersects the eastern right-of-way line of Clairmont Road; thence running northerly along the eastern right-of-way line of Clairmont Road to a point where the eastern right-of-way line of Clairmont Road would intersect the southern right-of-way line of Eighth Street if the southern right-of-way line of Eighth Street was extended easterly in a straight line; running thence westerly and northerly along the corporate limit line to a point where the corporate limit line intersects the centerline of Peachtree Road; running thence northeasterly along the centerline of Peachtree Road to a point where the centerline of Peachtree Road would intersect the centerline of Clairmont Road if the centerline of Clairmont Road was on the same grade as Peachtree Road rather than being elevated by a bridge above the Peachtree Road roadbed; thence running southerly along the centerline of Clairmont Road to a point at its intersection with the centerline of New Peachtree Road, thence easterly along the centerline of New Peachtree Road to the point where the centerline of New Peachtree Road intersects the eastern right-of-way line of Clairmont Road, this point being the point of beginning of this Election District 3.
