flag Hamilton County Mayor Weston Wamp has proposed a land-use exchange to preserve 1,300 acres of McDonald Farm for public recreation while allowing industrial development on about 500 acres at Enterprise South near I-75. flag The plan, backed by state and federal officials, aims to save taxpayers over $320 million, boost economic growth, and avoid costly infrastructure upgrades. flag It requires approval from the Hamilton County Commission and Chattanooga City Council, followed by federal review through the U.S. Department of Interior’s Lands to Parks Program. flag The swap would transfer federal deed restrictions from Enterprise South to McDonald Farm, protecting its core while enabling development on underused land.
