Lawrenceville residents to vote on Sunday liquor sales

Lawrenceville residents will decide in November whether to allow stores to sell alcohol on Sundays.

The Lawrenceville City Council approved a measure allowing the referendum by a three-to-one vote Monday night. A host of other Gwinnett County cities – including Duluth, Norcross, Sugar Hill and Suwanee – will hold similar votes.

Earlier this year the General Assembly authorized local votes on Sunday alcohol sales in retail establishments after a five-year debate.
