One year after gathering momentum, a push to create a self-taxing district along Ga. 347/Lanier Islands Parkway in South Hall County has fizzled, with once-interested parties looking elsewhere for improvements along the busy strip. Mike Williams, CEO at Lake Lanier Islands resort in South Hall, said he’s “very disappointed” at the way things have turned out. “I think there are things that no city government would have funded that would have made our area stand out among other parts of Hall and Gwinnett counties,” he said.
