The stately three-story Duluth City Hall overlooks the Town Green, Festival Center and historic Main Street. The present City Hall opened in January 2008, replacing the old City Hall on West Lawrenceville Street. The mayor and city council meet in the council chambers on the second Monday of each month. Citizens can pay taxes, apply for rezonings and obtain permits in offices located in the building. A community room in the basement provides space for council work sessions and informational presentations to citizens.
The structure opened in 2009 and houses major city offices, including city manager, City Council, business licenses and economic and community development. It sits near an amphitheater, which is the focal point of the city and site of many community events, such as Taste of Suwanee. A time capsule, planted at at the front door, is scheduled to be opened in 2059.
