GDP Script/ Top Stories for May 22nd Publish Date: May 22nd From the BG AD Group Studio Welcome to the Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast. Today is Thursday, May 22nd and Happy birthday to Tommy John I’m Peyton Spurlock and here are your top stories presented by KIA Mall of Georgia. Firefighter Injured As Early Morning House Fire Displaces Family Of 11 In Lawrenceville Gwinnett police launch summer public safety initiative Gwinnett celebrates grand re-opening of homeless services center and shelter Plus, Leah McGrath from Ingles Markets on sodas 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: Firefighter Injured As Early Morning House Fire Displaces Family Of 11 In Lawrenceville A Lawrenceville home caught fire early Wednesday after a lightning strike, displacing a family of 11 and injuring a firefighter. Fire crews arrived at 2:08 a.m. to find flames in the attic. While battling the blaze, the roof collapsed, injuring a firefighter who was treated and released for non-life-threatening injuries. The family safely evacuated after spotting the fire, and the Red Cross is assisting them. Firefighters controlled the blaze by 2:30 a.m., using multiple units to prevent further damage. Officials stress the importance of fire escape plans and offer community education resources for safety. STORY 2: Gwinnett police launch summer public safety initiative The Gwinnett County Police Department launched a summer safety initiative on May 20 to boost officer visibility, reduce crime, and enhance community engagement. Key efforts include increased patrols in high-traffic areas like malls and parks, daily crime suppression operations, and visible cruise lights on patrol cars. A major focus is community engagement through weekly Chief’s Walks, where residents can meet police leaders, share feedback, and build trust. The initiative aims to ensure a safe, proactive summer while fostering stronger relationships between officers and the community. STORY 3: Gwinnett celebrates grand re-opening of homeless services center and shelter Gwinnett County celebrated the reopening of an expanded homeless outreach center in Norcross, operated by the Latin American Association (LAA) and HTS. Originally opened in 2021 but closed due to flood damage, the center now offers comprehensive services, including a youth drop-in center, a shelter for young mothers, food, clothing, and hygiene facilities. Staff, many with lived homelessness experience, provide case management, housing navigation, and life skills training. The center aims to address rising homelessness, especially among working families and youth, with a focus on stabilizing lives. The $1.2M annual operation relies on grants and donations to sustain its mission. 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: Kemp touts proposed Georgia Power rate freeze Georgia Power's plan to freeze rates for three years, announced this week, was praised by Gov. Brian Kemp as beneficial for customers and Georgia's economic growth. The agreement, pending Public Service Commission (PSC) approval, cancels a planned rate case and follows three rate hikes in recent years due to rising electricity demand. Critics argue the freeze won't prevent increases tied to fuel and hurricane recovery costs, which the PSC will address next year. Kemp dismissed claims of political timing, emphasizing the freeze's role in attracting businesses. A public hearing is set for June 26, with a vote on July 1. STORY 5: Philadelphia Winn Chapter DAR awards Good Citizens and American History Essay Contest Winners Nine Gwinnett County high school students were honored by the Philadelphia Winn Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR) for their citizenship and writing skills. The DAR Good Citizen Award recognized seniors for dependability, service, leadership, and patriotism, while the American History Essay Contest awarded students for essays on historical topics judged for accuracy, originality, and grammar.

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.

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.

She’ll visit the Duluth branch of the Gwinnett County Library on May 12 as part of her 11-state tour, celebrating the magic of shared stories and meaningful connections. STORY 2: Video tightens up timeline before Lawrenceville twins deaths, but questions remain A surveillance video from a Shell gas station on March 7 is aiding investigators in piecing together the mysterious deaths of Lawrenceville twins Qaadir and Naazir Lewis, found shot on Bell Mountain the next morning. The Georgia Bureau of Investigation initially labeled the case a murder-suicide, but the family disputes this, insisting the twins would not take their own lives. The video shows the twins casually eating snacks and drinking water, with no signs of distress. Questions remain about how they accessed the closed park and the timeline of their deaths. The case has also faced controversy after a firefighter shared scene photos, leading to their dismissal. STORY 3: Gwinnett Police Department's Situational Awareness and Crime Response Center receives statewide award The Gwinnett County Police Department’s Situational Awareness and Crime Response Center (SACRC) has earned a 2025 Georgia County Excellence Award for its innovative use of technology to enhance public safety.

In 2024, it contributed to over 250 arrests, recovered 80 stolen vehicles, and found 12 missing individuals.

Clint Dixon, expands the High Demand Apprenticeship Program to include apprenticeship sponsors, allowing them to receive funding upon successful completion.

Break 1: 07.14.22 KIA MOG STORY 1: Gwinnett police searching for suspect after woman found dead in Snellville area home Gwinnett County police are searching for a suspect after a woman was found dead in her Snellville home late Tuesday in what appears to be a domestic dispute. A juvenile called 911, reporting an argument between a man and woman. Officers arrived to find the woman deceased, while the suspect had fled on foot. The juveniles in the home were unharmed and unrelated to the victim or suspect. Police believe the incident was isolated, involving individuals who knew each other. Anyone with information is urged to contact detectives or Crime Stoppers for a potential cash reward. STORY 2: Discovery High football team takes part in Family Promise bed races to help make a community impact Discovery High’s football team, led by Coach Roy Groshek, is fostering a positive culture by engaging in community events ahead of spring practice starting May 1. The Titans participated in a pep rally at a local elementary school and the 14th annual Bed Race in Lawrenceville, benefiting Family Promise of Gwinnett, which raised $36,000 to combat homelessness. The team finished second in the youth division, with Principal Robert Maffeo steering their bed. Groshek emphasized the importance of community involvement and rewarding players who excel academically and athletically. Spring practice culminates in a scrimmage on May 15 at Seckinger.

Brian Kemp’s decision on two bills, House Bill 761 and House Bill 772, which could lead to referendums this fall on new or increased homestead tax exemptions. HB 761 proposes a $5,000 exemption for Lilburn homeowners and $10,000 for those 65 and older, while HB 772 would codify Norcross’s escalating senior exemptions, raising the maximum from $45,000 to $90,000 for homeowners aged 65+. Separate school tax exemption bills for Gwinnett County are also under review, with a countywide referendum set for May 2026. These measures aim to provide tailored local tax relief amidst rising property valuations. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.874.3200 for more info.

The Lawrenceville Lawn is located at 210 Luckie Street, Lawrenceville. STORY 5: Duluth police still on the lookout for runaway goat Duluth police are on the hunt for a runaway goat that’s been evading capture for over a week. Spotted in backyards and even running down Peachtree Industrial Boulevard, the elusive billy has outmaneuvered officers multiple times, earning comparisons to a "huffin' Houdini." Police suspect it might be the same goat recently loose in Suwanee but can’t confirm. Residents are urged to call Gwinnett County Animal Control at 770-339-3200 if they spot the goat, rather than attempting to catch it themselves.

“I know who you're talking about!” So, we did a thing… After almost 6 years into this podcast, this is the first time we've ever done a BREAKDOWN of a single track, and what better way to kick things off than SLAYER's ANGEL OF DEATH, which is without question “one of the most perfect thrash metal songs EVER written” and also just happens to be the killer opener on one of the most perfect thrash metal albums ever recorded, the Rick Rubin produced legendary 1986 masterpiece, Reign In Blood. Time to relive the memories of yore, including the joys of “lunchtime and slimy fingers”, and decide whether or not you will be joining “Team Hot Pocket or Team Snooch”. Prepare to comprehend what “abacinate” actually means and understand why it is so horrifying in context, realize that “Manghoul” isn't phonetically accurate but does make a gruesomely fitting nickname, and discover the reason why “time doesn't matter and isn't important” when you JOIN US as we go BEYOND THE BREAKDOWN into the essence of everything that makes ANGEL OF DEATH “one of the most perfect thrash metal songs EVER written”.

STORY 2: Peachtree Corners town hall will kick off months-long conversation on policing Peachtree Corners will host a town hall on May 8 at City Hall to present findings from a feasibility study on creating a city police department. City Manager Brian Johnson emphasized this is the start of a community discussion, with no decisions expected until late fall or early winter. The meeting will include a presentation, Q&A, and live streaming for residents. A community survey and further discussions will follow over the summer. Key topics include potential costs, tax implications, and the transition from Gwinnett County police services. Residents are encouraged to provide feedback throughout the process. STORY 3: Efstration says state legislators had a 'productive' session this year Georgia House Majority Leader Chuck Efstration called the 2025 legislative session "incredibly productive," highlighting statewide achievements like school safety improvements, tax cuts, and the Riley Gaines Act. A key school safety bill mandates communication between districts about students with troubled histories, inspired by a Barrow County tragedy. Gwinnett-specific wins included property tax relief measures, annexation legislation for Lawrenceville and Mulberry, and homestead exemption bills for Norcross and Lilburn.

Public hearings will be held on May 8 and May 15, with final adoption expected in July. Residents are encouraged to provide feedback.

Georgia DOT Commissioner Russell McMurry highlighted ongoing efforts to improve major highway corridors, including work on I-20/I-285 interchanges and converting I-75 toll lanes.

Four men are vying to lead the city of Pittsburgh, so ahead of the primary on May 20, we're asking each of them to tell us why they think they're the best person for the job. We're kicking things off with our current mayor, Ed Gainey. He served in the state house for almost a decade and, in 2021, became the only challenger to ever beat out an incumbent mayor. We talk to Gainey about his biggest achievements and challenges in office so far, and why he believes he deserves another term. This is the first installment of our new "Mayoral Mondays" series. Stay turned over the next month as we talk to Gainey's Democratic challenger, County Controller Corey O'Connor, as well the Republican candidates — former police officer Tony Moreno and Lawrenceville small business owner Thomas West.

The Georgia Senate unanimously passed House Bill 739, awaiting Gov. Brian Kemp's signature. If approved, the annexation would balance the city's tax base, reducing tax-exempt properties from 40% to 21%. Residents in the annexed areas would see no net change in millage rates but would shift to city services. The expansion, effective January 2027, would require $9 million annually for additional services, offset by matching revenue.
