The City of Snellville held a work session on July 27, 2026, focusing primarily on sewer infrastructure improvements and related financial considerations. The city is collaborating with the county on a multi-phase sewer upsizing project to address capacity issues in the town center, with an estimated total cost of $9.8 million. The city discussed contributing approximately $2.5 million from SPLOST overage funds to accelerate the project timeline from a potential 5-10 years down to 2-5 years. The council expressed support for the financial partnership, emphasizing the importance of proactive infrastructure upgrades without compromising other city priorities. Additionally, the meeting covered updates on capital projects such as Frisco Park gym construction, and discussed investment options for city funds, including moving idle funds into the Georgia Fund 1 to achieve better yields. No formal votes were taken during this session, but the council indicated consensus to pursue further discussions with the county regarding the sewer project funding and timeline acceleration.
