Gwinnett Co. Budget Public Hearing Set for Tonight

Gwinnett County’s final 2009 budget will be presented at a public hearing on Monday evening at the Gwinnett Justice and Administration Center (GJAC) in Lawrenceville at 7 p.m.

According to county officials, this budget differs substantially from the one originally proposed last December, making this public hearing an important tool to inform citizens of the changes.

The budget incorporates $40 million worth of service-value-responsibility initiatives aimed at reducing the county’s use of reserve funds to balance the budget without jeopardizing the delivery and quality of core services.

The budget will be considered for adoption by the Gwinnett Board of Commissioners on March 3.
