Boundaries
This page identifies the boundaries and restrictions for the incorporated City of Hamilton. The State of Tennessee guidelines require a new city to be located 3 miles from a city under 100,000 residents and 5 miles away if over 100,000. The yellow area is the initial incorporated City of Hamilton. Upon formation, residents have the right to join the new city by choice or through the urban growth plan. The future growth area of Hamilton is south to the current City of Chattanooga
