County leaders on July 16 said a groundbreaking would take place that day for a new Limestone County recycling building and that ADAM provided a $600,000 grant to support construction.

The chairman thanked past and present commissioners for supporting the recycling project and specifically thanked “ADAM” for a $600,000 grant that county officials described as a key funding source for the building. The chairman said the ground breaking was scheduled for 11 a.m.

Separately, commissioners announced a road‑naming and dedication ceremony set for 3 p.m. to designate Highway 127 as the Tommy Carter Highway. The chairman said the renaming honors Tommy Carter for his service to Limestone County and the state and that the dedication would take place at Altman Elementary School.

The recycling building and the road dedication were announced during commissioners’ remarks and were not presented as separate board agenda items requiring action during the meeting.
