County officials say these will be "drop-in' type sessions and that participants are welcome to attend at any time during the hours set aside for each meeting.
Gwinnett County residents will go to the polls March 19 to vote on a contract for the provision of expanded transit services. If the referendum passes, Gwinnett's transit system and services will expand based on Gwinnett's plan and its contract with MARTA. The expansion will be funded through a one-cent sales tax for transit.
