Residents vote to incorporate small Grand Canyon town

FLAGSTAFF, Arizona -- Early results show residents of a small community in the state of Arizona that serves as a gateway to the Grand Canyon's popular South Rim have voted to incorporate.

Tuesday's election was the second attempt to incorporate Tusayan after a September 2008 effort failed. Tusayan is comprised of 144 acres (58 hectares) of private land with scattered housing, hotels, restaurants and shops. Officials say 244 people were registered to vote Tuesday but only 183 cast ballots.

Unofficial results show 115 voters — 63 percent — backed the incorporation plan.
