New logo for Old Town

The Old Town neighborhood has a new logo! After a thorough branding process, the Downtown Development Authority is excited to now display the new logo in various ways in Old Town.

Protect Water Quality

Pet waste can be a big contributor to water pollution. The best way to prevent this is to properly dispose of pet waste. Here are some helpful tips:

  • Keep doggie bags by the door 
  • Keep a bin for pet waste outside
  • Dispose of the collected pet waste in the regular trash 
Lilburn maintains pet waste stations in City Park to help you scoop the poop. So pick up after your pet, dispose of the waste properly, and protect our waterways. For more information, please visit www.gwinnettH2O.com.
