Have you heard about Gwinnett’s Transit Plan? The County launched an educational hub for residents to get informed about the plan and have their transit questions answered.
The hub explores different transit modes, benefits for the community, and information about a potential transit referendum. It also features a monthly video series that highlights different components of the plan.
Gwinnett’s Transit Plan aims to provide 100 percent transit coverage through the expansion of the County’s existing microtransit service. Proposed services also include an airport ride to Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, high-capacity systems, and additional transit transfer facilities.

Most Residential and Commercial Annual Notices of Assessment for 2024 will be mailed in early April. An Annual Notice of Assessment is not a tax bill. The notice informs you of the value assessed on your residential or commercial real estate as of January 1, 2024. Property owners may appeal the assessed value within 45 days of the date of the notice by submitting a completed PT-311A state appeal form to the Tax Assessors’ Office by visiting Gwinnett-Assessor.com.
