More than two years ago, Billie J. Elliott and her neighbors succeeded in fending off a proposed QuikTrip at the entrance to their Gwinnett County neighborhood.


Now, they’re battling again.

Tuesday, county leaders will hear another proposal to build a QuikTrip gas station and convenience store next to Elliott’s house, at the intersection of Jimmy Carter Boulevard and Hayes Drive outside Norcross.

Residents hope they’ll succeed in convincing county leaders that the project still does more harm than good.

County commissioners in 2018 rejected a plan that would have put a nearly 6,000-square foot building on three acres with 54 parking spaces, four entrances, 10 gas pumps and cafe-style outdoor seating.
