A Superior Court judge has found Gwinnett County acted lawfully when it contracted with five companies to collect residential garbage and charged residents for the service on their property tax bill.
On June 9 Judge Michael Clark rejected claims made in a lawsuit filed by Verlin and Milagros Gilliam of Loganville. They claimed it was illegal to require residents to have trash service and bill them in advance on their property tax bill.
Gwinnett County launched the new trash service last July. Judges have dismissed several lawsuits claiming the county’s trash service is illegal.
