Gwinnett County opposes new state law that burdens taxpayers
The Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners will pursue legal action to challenge the unconstitutional provisions of a new state law. Senate Bill 138, legislation dictating the transition of services between Gwinnett County and the newly created city of Mulberry, became law on May 15. County officials have voiced strong opposition to the bill’s unconstitutional, unprecedented, and unworkable mandates that will impose an impossible administrative compliance burden as well as a financial burden on all Gwinnett taxpayers, including those who live in the city of Mulberry.
