History
Hooper was settled in 1854, and become a township in 1997 (about 15 years after a failed vote to incorporate). Over the next several years “it became evident that the township board could make plans and suggestions, but had no official power,” so a vote to incorporate passed on May 2, 2000, with the city being officially incorporated on November 30, 2000.
