Gwinnett Commission Chairman Charlotte Nash will deliver her annual “state of the county” address Thursday — but she’s not saying ahead of time what it will cover.
“I don’t share information about my [state of the county address] in advance, at least partially because I have been known to make changes at the last minute,” Nash wrote in an email to The Atlanta Journal-Constitution on Wednesday.
Hundreds of business and community leaders generally attend the speech, which will be held at noon at Duluth’s Infinite Energy Center.
Last year, Nash laid out her vision of Gwinnett in the year 2040, reflecting on the county's future in the movie industry and on possibilities for improving and expanding transit.
It's unlikely that Nash's speech will address the county's biggest current news story: the turmoil surrounding Commissioner Tommy Hunter, who is facing an ethics complaint and calls for his resignation after referring to civil rights leader and U.S. Rep. John Lewis as a "racist pig" on Facebook.
