City in line for positive retail growth and activity
Over the last year we have all seen how retail has been directly impacted by COVID-19. The pandemic acted as a closure catalyst for those retail and restaurant brands already struggling and put others at risk that run on thin margins. With that said, it is not all doom and gloom.
Peachtree Corners is fortunate to have two lifestyle centers in The Forum and Town Center along with other power centers anchored by Publix, Target, ALDI, and LA Fitness among others. READ MORE

American Rescue Funds coming to small businesses
The American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) is providing additional relief for the nation’s small businesses and hard-hit industries. Applications for funding are currently being accepted by the Small Business Administration (SBA). Shuttered venues, like movie theaters, as well as restaurants, may be eligible for grants through the SBA. There is also another round of Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) funding and Economic Injury Disaster Loans (EIDL).
In a separate measure, ARPA funds are expected to trickle down through the state of Georgia to local municipalities around July 1. The monies will be disseminated in two allocations, with the second coming 12 months after the first. Peachtree Corners is planning to offer another small business assistance grant program. Specific details are currently being finalized.
