Founded July 2012, Peachtree Corners is home to over 40,000 residents and is located in the southwest corner of the county. Seven miles of the Chattahoochee River define its western border. The new city`s roots began in the late 1960s as a dream of businessman Paul Duke, who pitched the idea of creating Peachtree Corners, a planned community to be build in the area once known as Pinckneyville.. Duke`s dream included Technology Park Atlanta, a campus of low-rise buildings for high technology industries. Today Technology Park is home to Curiosity Lab, high-tech and Fortune 500 businesses. The city continues to draw top-tiered engineering talent from around the country. The city by the river is also home to regional, national and international headquarters for a number of corporations. Peachtree Corners is an active family-oriented city. Residents enjoy a variety of living lifestyles from riverfront homes, swim-tennis communities, attractive townhome, apartment and senior living choices. Peachtree Corners residents and visitors enjoy numerous parks with views and access to the river, trout fishing and boating. Families have excellent education choices for their children, from outstanding Gwinnett County Public Schools to private and parochial schools. Peachtree Corners is also within an hour`s drive of a number of post-secondary institutions. Businesses thrive in Peachtree Corners pro-business environment and zero millage rate. The Gwinnett city is also home to a new startup incubator which promotes and supports the entrepreneurial spirit. The city`s Town Center, opening in 2018, features retail shops, restaurants, entertainment venues, townhomes, veterans monument and town green for community gatherings and outdoor entertainment.

Regional Government Services Authority (RGS) was formed in 2001, by a city and a regional planning and services agency to help local governments meet three challenges: decreasing revenues, increasing demands (and costs) for services, and loss of experienced staff. Local government leaders knew that these challenges were likely to continue, so agencies would have to work together – uniting not only their voices but their resources to advocate and become more efficient. The idea behind the creation of RGS was to form an agency which would help local governments share expertise and improve efficiencies. A need was emerging for some way to help agencies get the expertise and experience needed, without each agency having to hire full-time staff when the need might be less than full-time. Agencies could, in effect, share expertise through a third-party.
