Reading Government regulations is always tricky. Some regulations may not want to be found.
But, if you live in Huntsville, think of this: The County (your county) can keep approving subdivisions. (Without your input?) And the residents of them will drive into your town. Every morning. Or evening.

To contrast the City (Huntsville) with the County (Madison), I cannot find any Public notice requirement of proposed subdivisions besides this -- limited to the adjacent land owners.

It may take forever to render (depending on your computer and modem) but this is what you have to work with. I'm posting the picture so you'll know how Madison County is supposed to look for the State *House* map. The link loads 4 maps.

Who, in their right mind, would ever draw Districts like this?
Seriously. What kind of criteria could you use that would render a shape like the orange one below?
I'll post the link in the remarks so you can check it out. It's the Alabama House 2021 map. Wait until you see this web page.

How close is Downtown Huntsville to turning Blue?
39 votes.
See that dark Blue precinct to the west? Kamala Harris won that precinct by 673 votes.
One precinct at a time. Next thing you know, Madison County is Blue. (From the @nytimes.com. Red highlights are mine. Link in the remarks.)

November?!!!? How can it be November already? (Pssst! And the time change is tonight!)
Anyway, the 3rd Thursday this November is...November 20th. (You know you can program your phone's calendar for this, right?)
Put it on your calendar -- however you do it. It will be a busy month.

Just in case you need help finding Alabama House District 21. :)
I swear, this is a screen shot of what I believe to be the current Alabama House districts. District 21 is not labeled but I believe it to be the purple area highlighted by the red arrow.
This is what politics is like in #Alabama.

Speaking of which...Speaker Johnson won't call the House into session. So what is Dale Strong -- our Congressman -- doing with all his spare (unscheduled) time?
Hosting town halls so we can talk to him? (I don't think so...)
Call him and ask.

Of the 2,974 frames I shot yesterday at the #NoKings protest in #Huntsville #Alabama, this is the one (there can only be one) I shared on my personal page.
I like the picture -- the elements, the framing, etc. -- but the truth of it really hit me. #Resist

Hey #Huntsville! Do you have your sign ready for Saturday's No King's rally?
If not, you're in luck. There is a sign-making party tonight at Back Forty Brewery. Folks will be there to help you.
If you already have your sign done, you can go help others. Either way, it will be a good time.
