The Gwinnett Village Community Improvement District will hear about redevelopment plans for a 168-acre industrial site at 7:30 a.m. Thursday at the district office, 5855 Jimmy Carter Blvd., Norcross.

A consultant will present a master plan for redeveloping the site at the intersection of Interstate 85 and Jimmy Carter Boulevard. District officials envision a mix of office, residential, retail and industrial uses at the site.

District Executive Director Chuck Warbington said it could take 10 to 15 years and $1 billion to develop the property.
