A city that previously promised no city taxes may need to raise taxes to fund its own police department. Currently, 911 calls are answered by the Gwinnett County Police Department. Some residents are satisfied with this arrangement, while city leaders think it's time to consider alternatives. A committee is exploring the possibility of creating a city police force.

The issue has gained urgency due to recent incidents, including a road rage encounter involving gunfire. Further details about the proposal and the committee's discussions are available.

The city council is weighing the options, with one councilman noting that incidents like the recent road rage shooting are a call to action.
