New Dawn Theater in Duluth is looking for a place to relocate.

The list indicates how the city would use one-cent sales tax funds if a referendum is called by Gwinnett County to extend SPLOST and passed by voters.
The extension of Davenport Road across Buford Highway tops the list of projects being considered by Duluth for 2014 SPLOST (Special Purpose Local Option Sales Tax) funds. The Duluth City Council and city staff have been compiling a list and prioritizing the projects in case the Gwinnett County Commission calls for a referendum in November 2013 to continue the one-cent sales tax.

The list is compiled so citizens would know how the sales tax monies would be spent prior to voting. Other projects on Duluth’s list include infrastructure upgrades to “The Block” to …

I think the city wants that block to be dead. Then they can push to have it torn down since it is not a sustainable area in its current state. Then several of the people in the city can push their own agendas to get a boutique hotel and other unwanted junk in there.
