Gwinnett County commissioners are urging state legislators to consider the impact that the creation of a new city in the northeastern part of the county would have on the rest of Gwinnett.
The commission unanimously voted to approve a resolution urging the county’s legislative delegation to “carefully consider” the ramifications of the creation of the proposed city of Mulberry. State Rep. Chuck Efstration introduced legislation earlier this month to call for a referendum on creating what would be Gwinnett’s second largest city if voters approve it.
