The Lilburn City Council recently approved an expansion of the boundaries of the Lilburn Community Improvement District. The increase includes properties both inside and outside city limits.

The Lilburn Community Improvement District serves as a catalyst to improve local perceptions of attitude and appearance, as well as business opportunities in the Highway 29 corridor and surrounding areas. According to the Lilburn CID’s website, “the over-arching goal of the CID is to create a Hwy 29 “Boulevard of Opportunity” that extends along the current Hwy 29 route from Ronald Reagan to Harmony Grove Road.”
