Annexation agreements between Bradley County and the city of Cleveland will be up for votes by the Bradley County Commission at its meeting next week.
Commissioners discussed both the Hawkins Property on Old Chattanooga Pike and the Williams Property on APD 40 during a work session Monday night. Both annexations were requested and both parcels are located within the Urban Growth Boundary but are not contiguous to Cleveland’s existing municipal boundary.
County Commission Vice Chairman Jeff Yarber announced his plan to place both items on next week’s voting session agenda. He said the commission’s Building & Land Committee met last week to review the annexation requests and a revised version of the proposal from the city was approved. He said that version was unanimously approved by the Cleveland City Council at its meeting Monday afternoon.
Yarber said he believes there are more annexation requests “like this coming,” and these agreements will help lead to smooth transitions.

The man wanted in connection with a weekend mall ‘riot’ has turned himself in.
David Ballard may have spent the last three days hiding from police, but he has not shied away from social media. The 18-year-old updated his Facebook page at least a dozen times after the ‘riot’ at Hamilton Place Mall.
Police said Ballard can be seen in cell phone video, wearing a black shirt with a white design and light jeans, fighting inside Hamilton Place Mall Saturday. Police said the fight led to a ‘riot’ that injured a pregnant woman.
High-tech cameras inside the mall helped identify Ballard, who is wanted on a list of charges.
Police tell us anyone who helped Ballard hide from them could also face charges.
