Gwinnett County's newest community improvement district has named a sole finalist for its first-ever executive director.
The Sugarloaf CID was approved by the county's Board of Commissioners in May and is expected to raise more than $184,000 a year from property taxes voluntarily paid by 43 commercial property owners near the I-85 interchange at Sugarloaf Parkway. On Friday, the CID announced Alyssa Davis as its sole finalist for executive director.
The organization expects to confirm Davis' new role at its December meeting.
"It is a unique opportunity to join a CID as it’s just beginning, and be in a position to provide foundational direction,” Davis said in a news release. “The Sugarloaf CID represents an area of dynamic growth potential, and I am excited to be part of promoting its success."
Davis is a professional urban planner and has seven years experience working for the Gwinnett Village CID, the state's largest.
Community improvement districts are created at the request of commercial property owners who agree to pay an extra tax to cover transportation, landscaping and other improvements in their respective areas. In addition to the new Sugarloaf CID, Gwinnett has five other such districts: Braselton, Evermore, Gwinnett Place, Gwinnett Village and Lilburn.
