Just a few words on the incorporation vote, which is, as of this publication, scheduled Tuesday, May 29. This issue is our last prior to the vote. We encourage those who can vote to do so. We’ve taken a stand against this incorporation effort – only because of the secrecy behind the incorporation efforts and the lack of consistent information.A hearing will take place May 18 (see News Briefs) regarding the boundaries, and the county also has intervened, because of the boundaries that obviously include county roads, with the incorporation effort. We will keep you informed via our Web site. We will add up-to-the-minute news on our Web site on the incorporation effort from the date of this publication through May 29. Be sure and visit www.newfalconherald.com for continued updates.As always, we’ll try to bring you an in depth look at the results, after the fact, in our June 2 edition.The incorporation issue may be the topic-of-the-day in Falcon, but business goes on. We are happy to announce that weíve added three new people to our team.Becky Weis has joined the NFH as a writer.
