SENATE RESOLUTION NO. 564
WHEREAS, The Senate of the State of Texas joins the
citizens of Hutto in celebrating May 1, 2019, as Hutto Day at the
State Capitol; and
WHEREAS, Nestled in the rich black lands of southeastern
Williamson County, Hutto was one of the first villages in the

freed slave Adam Orgain; the city was incorporated by the State
of Texas in 1911; and

and while the economy has continued to benefit from proud

industries; civic leaders have focused on conscientious
development projects that have brought in many new retail
establishments and contributed to citywide beautification; and
WHEREAS, Residents of Hutto benefit from a growing parks
system, flourishing public school and higher education
systems, and an award-winning emergency services district; in
2017, Hutto Fire and Rescue was named the Texas EMS First
Responder of the Year; and
WHEREAS, Hutto is a vibrant and welcoming community and an
attractive place for residents and visitors alike; citizens can
be justifiably proud of their rich history while looking
forward to a future of continued growth and prosperity; now,
therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 86th
Legislature, hereby welcome the visiting delegation from Hutto
and extend to them best wishes for a rewarding Hutto Day at the
