Voters in unincorporated Gwinnett will vote Nov. 6 to decide if alcoholic beverages should be available at restaurants on Sunday beginning at 11 a.m. Currently eating establishments must wait until 12:30 p.m. to sell alcohol.

Earlier this year, the Georgia General Assembly passed Senate Bill 17, also known as the “Brunch Bill” to allow local counties an opportunity to issue a resolution requesting a referendum so that voters can decide.

At this time, the only Gwinnett cities planning to call a special election for this referendum are Duluth and Peachtree Corners.
