Gwinnett Commissioners Honor Citizens Academy Graduates and Hear Community Concerns
Lawrenceville, GA — The Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners gathered for their regular public meeting, spotlighting civic engagement, community concerns, and ongoing development across the county.
A highlight of the session was the recognition of the Gwinnett Citizens Academy 101 graduates, an initiative launched by Chairwoman Nicole Love Hendrickson before she became chairwoman. The program gives residents a behind-the-scenes look at how county government operates and empowers them to become more involved in shaping their communities. Commissioners praised the graduates for their dedication to learning and public service.
Each district commissioner provided updates on projects and initiatives happening throughout their areas—from infrastructure improvements and business developments to community events and public safety updates.
During the public comment period, residents raised concerns about the presence of funeral homes and crematories in residential neighborhoods, urging county leaders to review zoning policies that could better separate these facilities from homes and schools.
The meeting also drew developers and zoning applicants presenting proposals for new housing developments. Commissioners listened to presentations and community feedback as they considered how to balance Gwinnett’s rapid growth with the preservation of neighborhood character and livability.
As always, the Board reaffirmed its commitment to transparent governance, community engagement, and responsible development—principles that continue to make Gwinnett one of Georgia’s most dynamic and diverse counties.
