Redistricting Open House Set For Gwinnett County Residents

Gwinnett residents will have an opportunity on Tuesday to ask questions about redistricting.

GWINNETT COUNTY, GA β€”The Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners will host a series of open houses Tuesday for residents to come out, see maps and ask questions about redistricting.

Redistricting happens once every 10 years. The open house is set for 6:30 - 8 p.m. Tuesday at Lucky Shoals Park Community Center located at 4651 Britt Road in Norcross. It’s hosted by District 2 Commissioner Ben Ku.

The county held its first of several town halls in Duluth last week. Under a decades-old law, political boundaries must be drawn every decade to match a County's changing population. State legislators are charged with the task, which can also determine how people may vote.
