Meet Your Neighbors
Meet Chuck Paul: I moved to Historic Norcross 11 years ago and while I am not what you would call a YOUNG Norcross citizen, I am young at heart. I served as a recent Norcross City Council member and currently host the PDC group at 45 South each Wednesday (all are welcome)! You will often see me walking the streets of our area, socializing at Social Fox or Cultivation or having lunch or dinner at one of our local restaurants. I grew up in the restaurant business and retired after 24 years at A Closer Look. You can follow my restaurant reviews on Instagram at chuck.eats. I LOVE Norcross!
