The Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners Tuesday approved a rezoning requested by a former sheriff's department employee facing a criminal investigation.
Former Sheriff's Maj. Nick Neal sought a rezoning for 1 acre on Arcadia Industrial Circle near Lilburn to allow him to operate a towing service there. The county staff and planning commission recommended the rezoning, noting similar uses in the area.
The GBI is investigating Neal's dealings with another towing company, as well as a vote last year on a county towing contract.
