Western Growth Area
This area is the new frontier for the City of Madison. It encompasses most of the City’s land in Limestone County, the boundaries of which are still very much in a state of change. For the purposes of this study, it is all land west of Burgreen Road, from Highway 72 south to the rail line; parcels that are either currently within the City limits, or in unincorporated parts of the County. Construction of a new high school is under way, and new neighborhoods are scattered throughout. Development is happening here, but it will be important to shape that development to best serve the current and future residents.
