Hope Hull voters went to the polls Tuesday to overwhelmingly support moving forward with incorporation. Results provided by the Montgomery County Election Center say residents voted 154 to 9 to establish the town.
Incorporation Process
While voters approved the measure, it is not a done deal yet. Under Alabama law, a proposed town must have at least 300 people in order to incorporate. The Montgomery County probate judge will order a census of those living in the proposed corporate limits. If the judge finds the requirements are met, an order of incorporation will be issued. Following the order, a special election must be held within 30 days to elect the town’s first mayor and town council.
