Exciting Zoning Changes Approved in Huntsville!

Big news for residents of Huntsville and surrounding areas! The Huntsville Planning Commission has just given a thumbs up for some major zoning changes that pave the way for extensive new developments. Nearly 400 acres in charming Limestone County are set to undergo exciting transformations, especially near the bustling Interstate 65-565 interchange.

Get Ready for Westmoore Landing

The spotlight is on a new mixed-use development, cleverly named Westmoore Landing, set to bring a vibrant community feel to the area. This project is expected to house a whopping 4,000 homes and isn’t just about sticks and bricks; it will include a rich mix of residential styles. Think cozy cottage-style houses, elegant manor-style homes, and even duplexes! There will also be multi-family units which promise an exciting twist with mixed-use buildings featuring retail attractions right on the ground floor.

Planning a Community Hub

At the heart of Westmoore Landing will be its very own town center, conveniently located near the Decatur city limits. This central hub is expected to buzz with activity, offering residents a place to gather, shop, and unwind. Accessing this promising new neighborhood will be a breeze via the Mooresville exit on I 565 leading to Alabama 20.

Additionally, the property has been newly categorized to support this ambitious plan, falling under both the Residence 2-B district and the C4 Highway Business district designations. The owners, McCrary Farms, LLC, will need to finalize this exciting zoning approval with the Huntsville City Council after a public hearing. Fingers crossed on that!

More Homes Coming to Greenbrier Preserve

But wait, there’s more! The Commission also granted final approval for 17 new lots in the thriving Greenbrier Preserve development, located just south of Swancott Road and west of Rabbit Lane. This neighborhood will bring over 1,100 homes to both the northern and southern sections, with more than 700 homes slated for the north and around 400 for the south.

Recent approvals have also included nine lots from the second phase of Greenbrier Estates and eight from the second phase of the Sweetwater subdivision. Over the past few months, more than 100 lots have been approved for Greenbrier Preserve, showcasing a commitment to providing accessible homes that cater to various income levels. These developments will serve the nearby manufacturing workforce, allowing for a strong community vibe.

Traffic Improvements on the Horizon

With all these new homes, it’s evident that increased traffic will follow. To tackle this head-on, improvements to Swancott Road are planned to accommodate the growing demand. No doubt residents will appreciate a smoother commute!

New Emergency Services Facility

Huntsville International Airport. This facility will replace an existing station and is strategically designed to be within the airfield’s security area, enhancing response times during emergencies. The specs include an observation tower, four engine bays, and side areas for overnight crew accommodations. Talk about being prepared!

Transforming Retreat at Goose Creek

Retreat at Goose Creek, featuring lovely townhomes. Nestled within the master-planned Meadows at Hampton Cove community, this area is shaping up to be a delightful destination.

Lastly, 13 lots in the third phase of the Eagle Trace subdivision were also approved, with homes priced around $300,000. Homebuyers will be able to choose from both one and two-story options, ensuring there’s something for everyone.

So, there you have it, Huntsville! A future bursting with opportunities, vibrant communities, and essential services in the works. There’s never been a better time to be excited about what’s coming to your hometown!
