“The example Poarch is setting is more than just the dollars and the cents. It’s the fact that they are an entity that’s on our doorstep; and to the extent that they’re expanding, and they’re bringing commerce into Montgomery, that’s the leadership that we look to so that we can be this great community, this shining light on the hill that we’re all proud to call home.” —Mayor Todd Strange, City of Montgomery

In 2009, Todd Strange was sworn in as the 56th mayor of Montgomery, AL.
