The City of Huntsville, which already reaches into Limestone and Morgan counties, may soon add Marshall County to its industrial base.
Two companies have petitioned the city for the annexation of nearly 1,100 acres south of the Tennessee River. The property lies primarily along McCutcheon Loop Road in Morgan County, with a smaller portion extending along Vaughn Road in Marshall County.
Urban and Economic Development Director Shane Davis said the move would also help protect Tennessee River frontage in Morgan County and provide oversight in adjacent residential areas.
SRM has also offered to supply materials to help improve infrastructure within the newly annexed area.
Huntsville first annexed land south of the Tennessee River in Morgan County in 2018.
The City Council will consider the annexation request at its regular meeting today at 5:30 p.m
