This new Town Hall Building was dedicated in 2012. Mint Hill was incorporated on March 11, 1971 actually for the second time. John McEwen was appointed Mayor until an election could be held. A total of 26 candidates registered for an opportunity to govern Mint Hill and 550 voters cast their ballors. From the top five, Bob Long was selected to serve as the first Mayor of Mint Hill. On the eleventh anniversary of the town's incorporation, Councilman John McEwen and his wife Eva Scott McEwen donated 5.5 acres of land to the Town of Mint Hill where the first town hall was built. Today the first town hall building is home of the Mint Hill Police Departement down the road from this spot.
