GVW INCORPORATION

The GVW referendum is tentatively scheduled for August 26th and citizens residing within the proposed borders which encompass more than 23 square miles must be registered to vote no later than July 25th in order to make their voices heard. Reportedly there have been several hundred new registrations since the petition to incorporate was submitted last November. The total number of citizens eligible to vote may reach 4400. If the turnout is less than 50% it seems likely that the organizers will prevail since they had almost 900 valid signatures on their petition and would need just a few hundred more to win.
