Development Challenge

I've been living in the Huntsville/Madison area for about 16 years now. Being a kid, I was upset about moving to Alabama; I can imagine experiencing the change as an adult. Alabama isn't exactly portrayed as a state for entertaining. In movies, it is easy to make us appear to be stuck in the 1800s! Everybody's been running away from this place, as if they'll be forever plagued with lameness. Get REAL. If you don't like it, change it. Plain and simple.
Why does it seem people want life handed to them???
Our forefathers created something from nothing; why can't we? Did you know you can submit suggestions to the local city council?! My fellow neighbors, our mayor is Troy Trulock. He is more than happy to make changes to our community. If you are passionate enough, research ways to get your opinions known. Anything that belongs to you has potential to be renovated! Let your inner visionary be heard. Do not be a complainer especially if you do not plan to solve your issues. 
The 256 area, or any area, within time can become THAT PLACE...

Tips:
  1. Found out who your city council is.
  2. Write down what you would like to see changed.
  3. Place your comments in a suggestion box at city hall or find out when the next community planning meeting is and see if you can attend
  4. Stay proactive!!!!
Good Luck
