Councilmember William “Bill” Hall will seek reelection to the Tallassee City Council representing Ward 4.
In announcing his candidacy for reelection, Hall said, “Over the last four years we’ve made many improvements within the City; however, there is much left to get accomplished.”
Hall identified within his tenure as councilmember for Ward 4, the city has been successful in navigating the financial stresses of today’s economy and is making strides in upgrades to infrastructure and recreational parks.
Within the last four years, the city has obtained over $15 million in grant funding that is currently being used for the replacement of over 20 miles of cast iron gas lines. In 2021, the city was identified as having over 34 miles of cast iron gas lines that needed to be replaced per the U.S. Department of Transportation, Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration. The city has completed the Downtown Renovation project, which consisted of underground utilities, sidewalks and paving. The city’s wastewater treatment facility has finally been brought back up to acceptable standards.
High traffic areas within Ward 4 such as South Ann Street have been paved with plans to extend the paving down to E.B. Payne Drive this summer. The council approved and saw the completion of new lighting poles at all three ball complexes and is currently proceeding with the design and construction of a new recreational facility.
Hall believes his diverse background and experiences working at different levels of the government enabled him to serve the citizens of Tallassee and Ward 4 successfully. With over 31 years of military experience, 25 years of state service in revenue and seven years of federal service in auditing, he brings ample financial and management experience down to the local level.
“Given the opportunity to continue serving as a councilman in this great city, I think the citizens will soon take notice of the strides we are making in transitioning Tallassee into a flourishing place that people will proudly call home,” Hall said.
