The Demopolis City Council voted to rezone the historic Foscue House property on Highway 80 for a hotel at their June 4 meeting.

The property was already zoned for a hotel of more than 10 rooms with a connected lobby. The new zoning will allow the owners to construct four new high-end cottage buildings with eight suites (two per building) that will operate as hotel-stye accommodations. The Foscue House itself will be converted into a small hotel.

Todd and Cindy talk about the house in this segment of the Black Belt Newscast.
