Published: Jan. 2, 2020, 4 p.m.

www.GoodMorningGwinnett.com As Still takes over as Lawrenceville\u2019s new mayor, he inherits a city whose downtown is in the midst of a major transition. There is the SouthLawn development, the college corridor project, the Lawrence hotel and construction on the Lawrenceville Performing Arts Center.


Still said the efforts that inspired those projects \u2014 the idea of revitalizing downtown Lawrenceville \u2014 will remain a top priority during his administration.

\u201cI guess what I\u2019m looking forward to is trying to finish the business we\u2019ve been working on and building community, you know building Lawrenceville back to a healthy community,\u201d Still said. \u201cI\u2019m looking forward to being able to continue that process so that people actually know each other, that they have relationships because that\u2019s what community really is, everybody knowing everybody, working together (and) playing together.\u201d

The first day of 2020 is not only the first day of a new year, but also the first day of Still\u2019s tenure as Lawrenceville\u2019s new mayor. He ran unopposed in 2019 to succeed outgoing Mayor Judy Jordan Johnson, who chose to retire at the end of her final term rather than seek re-election.
