Before you buy a lot near Byhalia with a plan in mind, check the Holly Springs zoning map first: the zoning district can make or break the plan. Covered here for Holly Springs: who controls zoning for a given parcel, matching a lot to its zoning district, and the questions that save a wasted trip.
The Holly Springs zoning map: start here

A fast way to settle it: check the municipal limits layer on the Marshall County ArcGIS parcel map.

On ground around Byhalia, city or town hall handles things like zoning, permits and utilities for lots inside the boundary, while the county keeps the tax map. Land beyond the city limits out by Byhalia often falls under county rules, not municipal ones.
Calling planning staff

Recorded documents worth pulling
