Gwinnett Place Mall Equitable Redevelopment Plan (ERP)
The Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners adopted the final Equitable Redevelopment Plan for the Gwinnett Place Mall. The plan was informed by eight months of community engagement with direct input from over 2,000 Gwinnett residents and focuses on a new model for equitable development to benefit historically marginalized communities.
Gwinnett County commissioned HR&A Advisors for the Equitable Redevelopment Plan to equip one of the most diverse areas in the country with comprehensive strategies on how to transform the mall into a unique regional destination and community asset.
Led by the Community Partner Advisory Board made up of residents, business owners and stakeholders, the plan development process included engaging with various communities, local businesses, and government officials, including County staff and the Board of Commissioners, to ensure equity remained central and the strategies aligned community needs with public and private investment. Community members shared their ideas and vision for the Gwinnett Place Mall redevelopment through a community open house, small-group conversations, one-on-one interviews, questionnaires for residents and a block party.
The Gwinnett Place Mall Equitable Redevelopment Plan addresses five key areas for preservation and growth in the County: housing, small businesses, cultural activity center, neighborhood services and jobs.
The County’s work on the Equitable Redevelopment Plan was completed in tandem with the Gwinnett Place Community Improvement District, which is developing its own findings into the Gwinnett Place Mall Site Revitalization Strategy to provide a complementary perspective and explore ways the project can attract private investment as well as provide a significant return on investment for Gwinnett County.
