Sunday Alcohol Sales Would Begin in June in Gwinnett
June 3 would be the earliest date in unincorporated Gwinnett, per a resolution passed last year by the commissioners.
For awhile, you'll still have to go inside a city limits on Sunday to buy packaged alcohol if Gwinnett voters pass the Sunday sales measure Tuesday.
A resolution passed last November by the Gwinnett Board Of Commissioners authorized June 1 as the start date for the new law. So Sunday, June 3, would be the first Sunday that retailers in unincorporated areas would be able to sell packaged alcohol.
State law would allow sales from 12:30 p.m.-11:30 p.m., though stores could set their own hours within that time frame.
