Organization Chart


Water and Sewer Master PlanningThe Gwinnett County Water and Wastewater Master Plan was jointly adopted by the Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners and the Gwinnett County Water and Sewerage Authority on Octo-ber 16, 2012. The plan, required by the Metropoli-tan North Georgia Water Planning District, recom-mends future water and wastewater infrastructure (pipelines, pump stations, plants, etc.) necessary to serve our citizens as growth occurs over the next 30 years. The plan is fully aligned with the 2030 Unified Plan, having been based on the population and employment projections developed in that plan. It is currently being implemented using water and wastewater flow triggers in order to ensure the most effective and efficient use of funds to de-sign and construct infrastructure as needed.

Unified Development Code and Sector Plan Request for ProposalDepartment staff worked with the consultants to achieve the first draft of the Unified Development Ordinance (UDO) in October 2012. Department staff met with the Tree Advisory Committee, the Development Advisory Committee, and the Unified Development Ordinance Advisory Committee in October 2012 to present the draft document and to gather com-ments from the various groups. Staff addressed comments and a separate stakeholder group from the Council for Quality Growth was formed by the department director to provide comments to progress to our final draft. Meetings with the Planning Commission and the same committees as listed above are scheduled for mid-year 2013. Subsequent meetings and the rollout of the final document are scheduled for June 2013. The final UDO is projected to be adopted by the Board of Commissioners by the end of 2013.

Amendment of Stormwater RegulationsRedevelopment sites often present unique challenges and circumstances, especially related to stormwater management. Redevelopment of a site (or portion of a previously developed site) might involve use of existing stormwater management features, modification or replacement of existing stormwater management features, or under special circumstances, perhaps qualify for a variance from stormwater detention requirements. The Gwinnett County Development Regulations (Article 8.10) and the Stormwater Systems and Facilities Installation Standards and Specifications were updated to provide requirements and guidelines for redevelopment specifically addressing water quality and detention requirements. The amended regulations and updated guidelines are intended to maintain consistency with current development standards and expand on require-ments that are specific to redevelopment sites.



Vacant Structures Registration ProcessThe Vacant/Foreclosed Real Property Registration Ordinance was adopted on June 19, 2012, and the process for registration of vacant properties was updated. A process for accepting foreclosure registrations was also implemented.

The change in process reflected:• The use of an updated standard form available with fillable fields on the website • A change to our permitting software process to now accept foreclosures • A change to our permitting software process to accept a foreclosure exemption as stated in the ordinance• Implementation of a de-registration process

Business License Renewal ProcessThe department worked with County Information Technology staff to develop an improved process for capturing busi-ness license renewal document requirements, as required by State of Georgia Code 50-36-1(1). The new system allows business owners to submit their renewal application online by entering financial information on the renewal form through an ADMIN piece located on the County’s website as well as uploading affidavits and verifiable identification documents in PDF format. This process has improved efficiency and expedited the renewal process for both County staff and business owners. Future plans will directly load financial requirements to the County’s SAP system, which will maximize processing of business license renewals.

Recommendations of Planning and Development Study CommitteeThe department reviewed recommendations by the Planning and Development Study Committee for improved effi-ciency and effectiveness of departmental operations and implemented the following items in 2012: • Conducted cross-training of staff within several departmental sections for more efficient customer services• Established the Special Inspections Program for commercial construction to ensure compliance with state law• Evaluated feasibility of expanding the scope of the Third-Party Engineer Inspections Program to include all trade inspec-

tions• Implemented quality assurance measures in plan review to enhance consistency of staff to provide services • Raised customer awareness of the opportunity to schedule appointments to meet with plan review staff
