Two incumbent Huntsville City Council members have officially launched their re-election campaigns, highlighting infrastructure improvements, neighborhood investments and quality-of-life projects as they seek another four years in office.

Councilman Bill Kling announced that he will seek re-election to represent District 4, while Councilman David Little has qualified to run for another term representing District 2 ahead of the Aug. 25 municipal election.

Kling said he is seeking re-election to continue work on transportation, public safety and neighborhood improvements throughout District 4.

“Serving the people of District 4 has been a tremendous honor, and I’m running for re-election because there is still more work to do,” Kling said. “We’ve made real progress improving neighborhoods, expanding parks and recreation, investing in roads and infrastructure, strengthening our economy, and supporting our schools.”

Kling said continued road resurfacing and traffic flow improvements will remain a top priority. He pointed to efforts aimed at repaving neighborhood streets, reducing congestion on major corridors and improving traffic signal timing.

He also highlighted Huntsville’s ongoing growth through park improvements, greenway expansion and economic development projects.

“I want to keep working hard every day for the families of District 4 and for the future of Huntsville,” Kling said.

Little, who launched his campaign under the slogan “Vote Big, Vote Little,” said he plans to build on infrastructure and recreation investments made during his first term.

“Serving the people of District 2 has been an honor,” Little said. “We’ve made real progress improving roads, parks, and public safety, while making sure City Hall works for every neighborhood. I’m ready to keep that momentum going and continue building a stronger Huntsville for future generations.”

Among the projects Little highlighted were upgrades at John Hunt Park, including new pickleball courts, expanded IcePlex space and improvements to sand volleyball facilities. He also cited support for greenways, parks and long-range transportation planning, including work on the Eastern Bypass expansion.

Little said he has also supported strengthening Huntsville’s hands-free driving laws and directed discretionary funding toward nonprofits serving lower-income families, educators, healthcare initiatives and individuals experiencing homelessness.

The municipal election is scheduled for Aug. 25.
