Center Point voters decide next mayor in runoff election
CENTER POINT, Ala. (WIAT) — Voters in Center Point will head to the polls Tuesday to decide between incumbent Mayor Bobby Scott and City Council President D.M. Collins in a runoff election for mayor.
Both candidates said their top priority is public safety, with the city planning to move forward on establishing its own police department.
“We’ve gotten our budget to the point where we kind of need it to be to move forward,” Scott said. “We want to be able to sustain it and make sure that it is something that we can continue to keep throughout the years.”
Collins said she is the only candidate on the ballot with a detailed proposal.
