Committee approves plan for Gwinnett SPLOST school projects
A committee of Gwinnett County residents approved a plan late Monday that would fund new sidewalks and intersection improvements at some public schools and Georgia Gwinnett College.
The projects would be funded by a 1-percent Special Purpose Local Option Sales Tax.
The work would be done at:
- Anderson-Livsey Elementary School
- Brookwood High School
- Georgia Gwinnett College
- Graves Elementary School
- Gwin Oaks Elementary School
- Mill Creek High School
There would additional work at additional existing schools.
Gwinnett County’s Board of Commissioners must still approve the plan. A vote is scheduled this spring, officials said.
