Chattanooga Pulse

Here are several of the interesting agenda items set to be discussed at the October 20 meeting of the Chattanooga City Council.

6. Ordinances – First Reading:

c) An ordinance adopting a Plan of Services and extending the corporate limits of the City of Chattanooga, Tennessee, to annex certain territory contiguous to the present corporate limits of the City of Chattanooga known as area 4B, being certain parcels adjacent to streets including, but not limited to Stonington, Gold Crest, Dahl Springs, Hixson Pike, Houser Ridge, Ely Ford, Bullock, Manassas Gap, Dove Field, Jackson Mill, Rapidan River, Orange Plank, Bayonet, Brigade, Musket, Clearwater, Cotter, within the Urban Growth Boundary of the City of Chattanooga, in Hamilton County, Tennessee, as shown by the attached map.

You might be thinking, “Hey, wait a minute, I thought annexation was over with?” Well, not so fast…because at least at press time there were still two more parcels to be voted upon and approved by the city council.

However, considering that Mayor Littlefield has asked for a “suspension” on annexation while he tries to get the county to the negotiating table to discuss metro government, these two ordinances might be tabled.  Then again, with this current council, one is never quite sure how they are going to vote.

The Chattanooga City Council meets each Tuesday at 6 p.m. in the City Council Building at 1000 Lindsay St. For more information on the agendas, visit www.Chattanooga.gov/City_Council/110_Agenda.asp
