Huntsville's Big Budget Move | Birmingham News

Huntsville’s new $360 million budget proposal aims to transform city life—with major investments in roads, public safety, parks, and community hubs. Mayor Tommy Battle’s plan, up for council review on Sept. 18 and vote on Sept. 24, includes $22M for roadwork, 18 new safety hires, upgrades at Research Park, Mill Creek, and downtown, plus a multi-year capital push for new police stations, firehouses, and library improvements. City workers also get a 2% COLA boost. This isn’t just spending—it’s building a stronger, safer, more connected Huntsville.
