313 BUSINESS VIEW MAGAZINE DECEMBER 2020 TRUSSV I LLE , ALABAMA busy over the past four years and even prior to that. They have been great corporate partners for us. As busy as they are, they always tend to have time for Trussville and we just feel like we are very fortunate to have a good working relationship with them. They fit our needs and are always willing to help when they can.” On the housing front, Trussville runs the gamut from large, sprawling estate lots to smaller ‘garden home’ lots, so there is something for everyone. But don’t wait too long to put in an offer – the housing market moves quickly. “One thing we sell people on is that the housing market is affordable, but there is a shortage,” Choat admits. “A lot of homes that are on the market rarely stay there very long… the housing market is good and strong in Trussville right now.” Trussville has seen much recent growth, and that will continue by design. The city has just completed its 20-year strategy called “Planning Our Future Together.” Using input from more than 200 citizens, plans were made to see improvements in education, infrastructure, jobs, community development, intergovernmental relations and more. One of the goals over the next few years is to create an educational corridor that would provide educational and training opportunities for citizens of all ages and groups. Plans include constructing another elementary school and a fourth fire station. And the city also expects to hire an economic developer to work with the industrial park and industrial board to recruit more businesses. “We’ve got great community support for what we are doing in Trussville,” Choat declares. “But there are always challenges moving forward and we have a plan to address that.” ROADS DONE RIGHT IF YOU DRIVE ON IT, PARK ON IT, OR LAND ON IT, DUNN CONSTRUCTION BUILDS IT.
