H.R. No. 320

R E S O L U T I O N
WHEREAS, Proud residents of Hutto are gathering in Austin on
March 23, 2011, to celebrate Hutto Day at the State Capitol; and
WHEREAS, The area that is now Hutto was first settled in 1855
by Adam Orgain and James Emory Hutto, and its first businesses
opened after the coming of the railroad in 1876; the town was
incorporated in 1911 and is observing its centennial in July 2011;
and
WHEREAS, Situated on the rich black soil of southwestern
Williamson County, this dynamic community perfectly balances its
small-town charm with expanding retail opportunities and a growing
park system; enjoying strong support from the town's residents,
Hutto's exceptional schools are growing at a rate of 20 percent each
year; the school district is the only one in the United States to
boast a hippo as its mascot; and
WHEREAS, Hutto's amenities and ready access to the high-tech,
manufacturing, and service employers in Central Texas make it an
excellent place to live; its population has soared from just 1,250
in 2000, and it has been cited as one of the fastest-growing
communities in Texas; and
WHEREAS, Hutto's educated workforce, highly motivated
government, and welcoming business climate combine to make the area
an ideal location for new enterprise; the winter 2008 issue of
Southern Business & Development magazine recognized the town as one
of the Top 10 Edge Markets and as one of the 100 Best Major Markets
in the South to Locate Your Company; and
WHEREAS, Building on their rich rural heritage and small-town
values of friendliness and industry, the people of Hutto are
looking toward a bright future for their community and this state;
now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 82nd Texas
Legislature hereby recognize March 23, 2011, as Hutto Day at the
State Capitol and extend to the town's delegation sincere best
wishes for an enjoyable and productive visit.
Gonzales of Williamson
