Redevelopment will be the hot topic when Lilburn city leaders meet Friday and Saturday for their annual retreat.

Among the topics to be discussed are redevelopment of Main Street, a commercial annexation proposal, and plans for a new City Hall and library.

"We're just trying to set goals for next year and the future of the city," said Doug Stacks, the city's director of planning and economic development.

The retreat will be from 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. Friday and from 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday at 550 Trackside in Lawrenceville. Both meetings are open to the public.
