Liquor Store Question, Restaurant Closure and Booing God

A look at a few of the most notable stories this week on Dacula Patch.

Dacula Special Election Set for Nov. 6

It’s official. On Nov. 6, registered voters within the city limits of Dacula will decide whether or not to allow package stores in the city. If this were a question being put to voters in unincorporated Dacula, it would likely pass by a wide margin.

Would you like it to pass?
