Congratulations to my friends in the City of Gluckstadt!!!!

Oo Rah Gluckstadt.

Gluckites

Glückstadt gewinnt!

To you people who think this is a victory, it will be appealed and appealed so your looking at 2 more years. While they should try and block Canton, they have the most rights to the situation since the area already lies next to the Canton city limits and they filed for expansion before Gluckstadt filed to incorporate.
Good luck I hope that Gluckstadt wins but this will take a few more years.

Three more storage unit complexes and 5 new gas stations will be built in honor of this approval.

I still don't understand what the point of this was. I don't buy the argument that if Gluckstadt didn't incorporate, then it would be annexed by Canton.

They have the best surveyor/engineer in the county and they are going to hire someone from Oxford? SMH! They should know better. Wasting good local county money on someone from "God's country!" Guess Notre Dames golden boy lost out on this one.

to 1:33 Canton had already filed to annex part of the area when Gluckstadt filed for incorporation. Just a matter of time before Canton either amended the incorporation try or tried to annex another area a few years from now.

Kraut-Town? Really? You should be more PC if you're going to survive in the New World Order under the Demo's. LOL! In future make certain your E&O is excellent. Too many "cant find a job" ACLU jerks out there.

Great. More cops writing more traffic tickets.

Doc Truly see's real tax money in Gluckstadt as the normal resident of Canton is a renter and doesn't/won't pay taxes, like he did. He wants the white person to carry the city, but will not provide proper LE, fire protection nor public services. Hell, go look at the city animal control truck sitting dead in the PD lot along with other dead vehicles. Chief Brown can't do anything due to the current leadership denying any and everything he requests. Don't bring up he's hiring extra cops as the current cops usually look for a way out.

Does Gluckstadt have a Chinese buffet yet? To me, that is the mark of Civilization. You know you made it at that point.

City Hall absolutely has to be the old Penn's location by the railroad track. HAS TO BE! or this whole exercise has been for naught.

Move to Gluckstadt to get away from city taxes, car dealerships, gas stations on every corner, neighborhoods everywhere. A few years later, city taxes, car dealerships, gas stations on every corner, neighborhoods everywhere. But good for yall being proactive on not wanting to be SW Canton and footing the bill for them.

Get a planning director NOW. Greedy, who gives a shit developers are making that PLACE look like Pearl or Flowood already.

More like Cuckstadt. Enjoy your identically-colored houses and your neighbor banging your wife!

Mac Haik ought to be ashamed of his ex-patriot ass for muddying up this water for twenty seven months. It's one thing to do battle with Truly and his bandidos; but, Haik jumping in on the protest wagon was nonsense. He can sell fifteen automobiles and pay the taxes with his profit. As it stands, he has (hopefully) lost a thousand sales.

Anything that deprives Canton of more money to steal / waste is a good thing.

1:33...Why don't you buy the common knowledge that if a community does not incorporate it will eventually be annexed? It's reality. Face it.

With both Madison and Canton looming on the outskirts of this booming tax base, both are hungry. How can you not understand that?

Does this mean that Gluckstadt will not have to bow down to the lords of the Canton Municipal Utilities? I am pretty sure that was a major contributing factor to their wanting to incorporate.

by the time byram was incorporated, it was too late. the new housing construction looks identical, so draw your own conclusions.

starter home haven. except this time it has Madison the city surrounded.

they need a seat on the f'ing airport board. how can Gluckstadt prosper if they don't have a seat on the airport board?

Mayor Mary has her eye on you Gluckstadt.

They should send a letter to the Governor!

We the citizens of Rock Ridge!

Now, Palease build a big grocery store in Gluckstadt.

Well.....

The city of Gluckstadt will be fine! Just watch!

All you naysayers sit back and enjoy!!
Give it a break, you can move there soon and enjoy the annual festival and relax on a Sunday afternoon.
The beer is great! You can even crawl up on the super fine Fire truck.

I bet Cantons pucker factor just went up!
Like really who wants to be in a city with almost a 1/2 million deficit, deficiencies in almost every city dept and a mostly corrupt municipal leadership?

Someday, maybe someone in this shithole state will realize that the only 2 bright spots are Oxford and Madison. The rest of this shit hole state is see above.....shit holes.

This is 20 years late, as sprawl and no town center are major flaws in a viable town/city. Also, something needs to be done about Canton (aka Jackson North). It is a cancer and growing blight in Madison County along with having one of the worst school systems in MS. Mary and Gene should stop their own fights to join with Gluckstadt in "fixing" Canton.

People who live in proximity of each other have a right to form themselves into a municipality by following the legally prescribed steps to do that. Others, like Mac Haik and Snake Truly have no business setting up roadblocks to that wish.

But, sadly, Gluckstadt is to Storage Facilities what Pearl is to mobile home sales. And when you exit interstate 55 at Canton you can throw a rock and hit seven convenience stores/gasoline stations. That will soon be Gluckstadt too.

We will see high rise apartment buildings in that area within two years.

@9:54 PM - That is a great idea. That would cut down the traffic to Madison by the Gluckstadt country bumpkins.

Today Gluckstadt....tomorrow Lake Caroline!

LC never had to worry about Canton annexation because the powers that be in Canton didn't want homes (that would never vote for them), just businesses. Gluckstadt, on the other hand, will make expanding a top priority.

Can't c*ck the Gluck. (I'll be shocked if KF lets this one through...but it's honestly the best response that will be posted).

It appears to me, based upon the approved map, that Stillhouse Creek is NOT going to be in Gluckstadt city limits (it feels funny to type those words). Can anyone confirm this? Personally, I would rather stay in Madison and see how Gluckstadt municipal government functions before considering joining the Gluckstadt, the City.

Rumor has it that Gerald Steen is moving up there and will run for mayor. Can some of the donation collectors verify that?

You are right 1:31, I work in an architect's office that is presently working on two c-stores and twp strip centers for that area.

to 3:10 - (work in architect's office) - Yep, pne is on the way...

I remember when Gluckstadt used to be a destination, twice a year. Once for dove hunting and once for the beer and kraut. It's no fun any more. But it may prove to be an effective barrier between Canton and Madison. Once it gets its own Taco Bell and The Links Apartments, it'll be South Canton.

Next up for sprawl.....Flora.
