GDP Script/ Top Stories for May 8th Publish Date: May 8th From the BG AD Group Studio Welcome to the Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast. Today is Thursday, May 8th and Happy birthday to Bill Cowher ***05.08.25 - BIRTHDAY – BILL COWHER*** I’m Peyton Spurlock and here are your top stories presented by KIA Mall of Georgia. Gwinnett increasing traffic signal contract by more than $13 million Kemp won't run for U.S. Senate in 2026 Lawrenceville changing trash pickup times because of summer heat Plus, Leah McGrath from Ingles Markets on medication All of this and more is coming up on the Gwinnett Daily Post podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen daily and subscribe! Break 1: 07.14.22 KIA MOG STORY 1: Gwinnett increasing traffic signal contract by more than $13 million Gwinnett County commissioners approved a $19.95 million agreement to enhance traffic signals and intelligent transportation systems, up from the original $6.67 million contract. The increase, funded by state grants and a 2023 special sales tax, will allow for extensive upgrades, including replacing poles, installing detector loops, maintaining signals, and implementing advanced traffic management systems. Transportation Director Lewis Cooksey highlighted the expanded funding’s role in significantly boosting the county’s ongoing traffic signal improvement efforts. STORY 2: Kemp won't run for U.S. Senate in 2026 Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp announced he will not run for the U.S. Senate in 2026, leaving the race against Democratic Sen. Jon Ossoff wide open. Kemp, seen as the GOP's strongest contender, cited family considerations and pledged to support a strong Republican nominee. Ossoff, considered vulnerable, has raised over $11 million this year, setting a record for a Senate incumbent. Democrats called Kemp's decision a setback for Republicans, while GOP hopefuls now scramble to fill the void in a race critical to Senate control. STORY 3: Lawrenceville changing trash pickup times because of summer heat Lawrenceville has implemented a summer trash pickup schedule, running from 6 a.m. to 2 p.m., Monday through Thursday, to protect sanitation workers from extreme heat. Residents must place trash on the curb by 6 a.m. on collection days, with the city recommending doing so the night before. While pickup days remain unchanged, early morning noise from trash trucks is expected. The schedule will continue through October 2. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.874.3200 for more info. We’ll be right back Break 2: STORY 4: Snellville begins construction on new Briscoe Park community center Construction has begun on Snellville’s long-awaited 34,000-square-foot community center at T.W. Briscoe Park, following a groundbreaking ceremony last week. The $11.3 million facility, two decades in the making, is set to open in summer 2026. It will include two basketball courts, an indoor walking track, multi-purpose rooms, an aerobics room, and an outdoor pavilion. STORY 5: Grayson will pay county more for tax billing Grayson will continue using the Gwinnett County Tax Commissioner’s Office for property tax billing through 2028 but at a higher cost. The per-parcel fee will rise from $1.80 to $3.10, with $2.10 covering county expenses and $1 compensating Tax Commissioner Denise Mitchell, a new addition to the contract. This 72% increase follows a 2021 agreement, with the updated terms reflecting changes in how cities negotiate tax billing contracts. The new deal ensures Grayson’s tax services for the 2025-2028 tax years.

State to lift ban on new irrigation wells Jackson EMC Accepting Applications for $1,000 Walter Harrison Scholarship Georgia Power hiking rates next month All of this and more is coming up on the Gwinnett Daily Post podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen daily and subscribe! Break 1: 07.14.22 KIA MOG STORY 1: State to lift ban on new irrigation wells Georgia is lifting a decade-long moratorium on new irrigation wells in Southwest Georgia, effective April 1. Governor Brian Kemp announced that the Georgia Environmental Protection Division (EPD) will accept applications for groundwater withdrawal permits, requiring drought-related measures to protect water supplies in the Lower Flint and Chattahoochee river basins. The moratorium, imposed in 2012 due to drought, was partially eased last year. Extensive research and improved water tracking technology have now enabled the EPD to confidently lift the ban. This decision follows a legal victory over water allocation disputes with Florida and Alabama. STORY 2: Jackson EMC Accepting Applications for $1,000 Walter Harrison Scholarship Jackson Electric Membership Cooperative is accepting applications for the Walter Harrison Scholarship, offering $1,000 for students attending Georgia colleges or technical schools. Eligible applicants must be enrolled or accepted at accredited institutions and reside in a household served by Jackson EMC. Evaluation criteria include financial need, GPA, SAT scores, academic standing, honors, and community involvement. Applications, due by January 31, 2025, can be obtained from school counselors or online. Annually, 15 scholarships are awarded by Georgia's electric cooperatives, honoring Walter Harrison's legacy in the cooperative movement. Since 1985, over $281,500 has been awarded to 292 students. STORY 3: Georgia Power hiking rates next month Georgia's Public Service Commission approved a 3.5% rate increase for Georgia Power customers, raising average residential bills by $5.48 per month. This is part of a series of hikes over recent years, totaling over $40 in increases, partly due to new nuclear reactors at Plant Vogtle and rising fuel costs. Commissioner Lauren "Bubba" McDonald expressed concern about the timing, given recent decreases in food and gas prices, but ultimately supported the increase. Georgia Power's lawyer, Brandon Marzo, stated the hike is necessary due to ongoing investments. The new rates will start on January 1.

STORY 5: Hebron Christian Wins 1st State Football Championship Hebron Christian Academy's football team, under Coach Jonathan Gess, won their first state championship by defeating Prince Avenue Christian 56-28 in the Class AAA-A Private final. This victory marks a significant achievement in Gess's third year, following a previous loss to Prince Avenue.

Walker, who lost a 2022 Senate race to Democratic Sen. Raphael Warnock, has been a prominent advocate for youth sports and previously served as co-chair of the President's Council on Sports, Fitness, and Nutrition.
