Trinity considers annexation talks with Morgan County lawmakers
Trinity officials plan to meet Morgan County legislators next week to discuss annexation of about 125 acres west of the current city limits toward the Lawrence County line. Mayor Branun cites Trinity as a fast growing Morgan County community with a 1960 population of 475 and a January 1966 planned special census predicting over 1,000 residents.
