Gulf Shores town hall meetings begin Thursday

The first Gulf Shores town hall meeting of the year will be held at 5:30 p.m. Thursday at the Gulf Shores Adult Activity Center. The purpose is to give citizens and government a forum in which to interact.

Steve Garman, the newly hired Gulf Shores city administrator, will share his background and describe the duties of the city administrator. A representative of the city will discuss the 2009 budget and the effect it will have on projects and personnel.

Following a question-and- answer period, representatives will be available for residents to express concerns about their areas of the city. All Gulf Shores residents are asked to attend to help increase dialogue between elected officials and their constituents.
