Superior Police Report

By Pete RiosChairman, Pinal County Supervisors I just wanted to pass along a few items to update you on what is happening in Florence with the Board of Supervisors. I was re-elected as Chairman of the Board of Supervisors until the end of our terms in 2012. It has been a pleasant experience as the Chairman and I

look forward to keeping up the good work with my colleagues on behalf of the citizens of Pinal County. Despite the sluggish economy, Pinal County has done it’s best to weather the storm. This budget year, the Supervisors had to cut $2.1 million. We were able to do this without a reduction in workforce. When it comes to cutting

A letter from the chairman: supervisors’ updatea budget, I am reminded of the often used phrase: “I have good news and I have bad news.” The good news is that your tax bill will be lower since we did not raise the tax rate and housing valuations are going down. The bad news is that we are going to have to shrink or downright eliminate services for residents. While some may cheer at the elimination of services, we must keep in mind that there are people that need and use these services. I am hopeful for a day when we can bring back or strengthen services that have been a victim of this economy. The Board recently adopted the redistricting lines for the upcoming

2012 election. We had to go to fi ve supervisor districts due to the 2010 Census population fi gures coming in at just over 375,000 residents in Pinal County. Our elections department did a great job offering three mapping options that would be likely to pass Department of Justice standards. Before we voted to adopt the redistricting lines, the Elections Department solicited opinions in public meetings held throughout the county. The Supervisors voted on a map that refl ected the input from our citizens. I want to pass along my thanks to all of you who took time to voice your opinion on our redistricting.

Sheriff’s Report

By Rev. Dennis Van GorpFamily Life Christian Center From Daniel 6:3 & 4, “The other administrators tried to find grounds for charges against Daniel in his conduct of government affairs. But, he so distinguished himself by his exceptional qualities, that they could find no corruption in him. He was trustworthy and neither corrupt nor negligent.” If you desire to be a leader among men, the quality of your character must be like Daniel’s. He

did not compromise his standards so that he would be like the others. By his natural behavior, he set a higher standard for them to measure up to and follow. So many look to others for acceptance, but leave God out of the picture. We read in Exodus 20 that our God is a jealous God. He wants our full attention, cooperation and love. When we follow Him, it places us in a position of honor that others soon learn to respect. Our integrity is how we

act when no one else is around. We refuse to lie, steal or do something that is wrong or unacceptable, when no one is watching. Employers love to hire people who have integrity. Daniel was a man of integrity and it earned him the high honor and favor of the various kings that he worked for. Daniel was simply following God’s instructions in the Bible about how to live life correctly. He was not making up some form of rules to obey. These regulations came from

Almighty God Himself. We do not begin life as a godly people. We have to learn how to live with godly character and integrity. Noah, Abraham, Joseph, Joshua, Gideon, Samuel, David and Solomon, among many others; were all men of high character and honored by God. We have the ability to choose in life; right or wrong, honor or dishonor, forgiveness or revenge. Circumstances and situations can affect us and our decisions. Regardless of the direction, we are

still capable of living a victorious life and choosing correctly. God is for us and we have His written Word. We also have ears to hear when He speaks to us, so that we can listen and get it right.

Ask Him to help you make the right choice in your decisions. Ask the Lord to show you the best answer of several different opportunities. Then, follow His advice. You won’t regret it.

By Mila Lira Local representatives of the Superior Optimist Club made a late afternoon decision on Saturday to postpone the annual Miracle on Main Street Christmas festival and Parade due to the inclement weather that covered the town on Saturday. Optimist President JoAnn Besich explained that the

club decided it was best to postpone the event for safety reasons as well as the comfort of those planning on attending the event. Shortly after the decision was made Superior experienced a series of snow showers and temperatures that reached into the low 30s. The 2011 Miracle on Main Street Festival and parade has been

rescheduled for Sunday, Dec. 11. The festival will start at 3 p.m. with the talent show beginning at 3:30 p.m. The rest of the entertainment is still being rescheduled. The postponement of the parade also allows everyone more time to decorate a float or vehicle for the parade. Line up for the parade will begin at 5:30 p.m. and will

By Taylor Beard With its contract up for review and possible renewal, several complaints against Orion Recycling have been brought to the Superior Town Council concerning the current state of the local transfer station. At the Nov. 17 council meeting, several members of the council publicly stated their intention to bring the issue to light on the agenda and further investigate the claims described in the complaints. During last Thursday’s meeting, Acting Town Manager Lou Digirolamo and Public Works Director Jed Lant gave their update. In contacting the Arizona Department of Environmental Quality to ask for the department to do an inspection, Digirolamo found that they do not readily do inspections, rather they send a form for self-inspection. Once they receive the findings of the self-inspection, the ADEQ will decide whether or not to further inspect the property. From here, the task of inspection was handed off to Lant. The current contract with Orion Recyling has expired and they are operating on a month to month basis, Digirolamo stated. The results of this inspection are meant to inform the council during their decision whether or not to renew a contract with Orion Recycling. The Transfer Station Inspection Report includes such questions as: • Has the facility filed a notice with the Department? • Does the facility operate in a manner that controls wind dispersion and other surface dispersion of solid waste? • Is solid waste dispersed beyond the facility boundaries collected on a regular basis by the facility operator?

• Does the facility participate in recycling? The form asks the types of solid waste accepted such as household, appliances, batteries, etc. It asks the degree to which there is on-site and off-site windblown litter. It asks how the facility controls discharged hazardous waste, about drainage, and fire hazards. Given the very through nature of the report, the ADEQ should be able to reasonable discern whether an official inspection is necessary. Before Lant began, Mayor Jayme Valenzuela reiterated, “The town council has received numerous complaints about what’s going on out at the transfer station/recycling station, so we did some inquiring ourselves and spoke with town staff and had them call ADEQ.” Lant explained the process, stating that if there are any violations found, the ADEQ will work with the town to get the violations cleared up. The first violation “that stuck out is that our transfer station is not registered, either through the county or the state,” Lant said. ADEQ sent Lant forms to get the process started in registering the transfer station. Lant stated that beyond the first violation, everything else appeared compliant with what he was sent. Compliance does not necessarily mean that the process is over. Lant will complete the inspection and send his findings to the ADEQ, which will ultimately decide whether or not the transfer station is operating properly. During the inspection, descriptions were given of the state of the property along with pictures that were taken. There were several questions following Lant’s report of his findings thus far. Councilman Hank Gutierrez asked if there

Council calls for an ADEQ Inspection of Transfer Stationwould be a monetary fine for the first violation. Lant stated there would not be one. Councilman John Tameron asked who actually determines if we are in violation. “They do.” Lant said. “So you are saying that is the only violation they have, all that stuff that is on the ground that you’re not supposed to have [on the ground] is not a violation? Everything that you see, the piles that shouldn’t be on the ground, is not a violation?” asked Councilman Gilbert Aguilar. “I explained that to ADEQ and they said they would send us an evaluation sheet and

whatever you are out of compliance on, you can work with us on.” Lant replied, careful to refrain from giving any opinion. Tameron then asked, “If that’s a transfer station, is he transferring anything out of there?” Lant replied, “Yes, he is. He is transferring recyclables out of there…he transfers approximately 10 tons per week, loaded into bins and are transferred to landfills. Waste is not to remain on the ground for more than 24 hours.” This last statement was met with subtle laughter. “Is that what you’ve found, that it’s not there for more than 24 hours?” Councilman Tameron

asked. “What’s coming in is not,” Lant finished. Mayor Valenzuela told the council that he met with Larry Jochai, the operator of Orion Recycling, Lant and Digirolamo, where Jochai stated that the piles are there because the town

made an agreement with the contractor of the theater – instead of paying to have it disposed, the town made a deal to put it out there so that the town would not have to incur the cost of it. “This is a deal that was made by past management, present and

By Taylor Beard Have you ever had that Monday where you hit a pothole on the way into work and spill your coffee all over your lap, leaving you looking as though you’ve had an “accident”? This is just not the best way to start the week. Sometimes the road is just

a little bumpy. Both Panthers and Lady Panthers alike have been feeling that pain, the pothole and coffee spilled in their laps, the rough start to their season. The Lady Panthers played an intense game against the Ray Lady Bearcats on Monday, Nov. 28, and

Panthers have a rough start to the season

there was a bitter taste left in the mouths as it ended 15-44. They repeated their score the following afternoon as they went up against the gals from Florence, ending the game at 15-48. Nobody is a fan of having someone stick to them like white on rice. Things started to look-up as they came together as a team to battle the Coolidge Lady Bears on Friday, Dec. 2, where, though they did not bring home a victory, their practice began paying off with a score of 30-44. These girls are talented, as Coach Billy Duarte knows; they just have not had the chance to play much together before the season and are still striving for that point where their skills meld for some optimal play. The boys are feeling the sting too, the proverbial kick in the pants. Athletes, competitive by nature, typically don’t handle losing very well. The Panthers are no exception to this rule. Having lost to the Ray Bearcats on Monday by 30 points, 42-72, their collective blood was boiling. The following afternoon, the Panthers had even harder time sinking shots as Florence got in their face, literally, to turn up the heat on the boys, leaving the game with a final score of 27-68. As with the ladies, the prospects brightened as they pulled into Coolidge on Friday. The Panthers began to rally, with game getting close as Louie Fuentes lead scoring with 19 points (including four three-pointers), followed by Jesse Aguilar with eight points. Louie and Mario Padilla lead the team in offensive rebounds with four each. Jesse lead the team in defensive rebounds with eight. Christopher

By Taylor Beard Support for the Superior Animal Rescue was out in record numbers at Thursday’s council meeting, taking up many of the open seats in the Senior Center. On the agenda was the

Discussion/Approval/Rejection of modifying, terminating and/or review of the contract between the Town of Superior and the Superior Animal Rescue with public comments and input. Carol Dodge of SAR

spoke on behalf of the rescue, explaining to the council how unfortunate it is to use euthanasia to control the population of animals. “We have a huge problem; we all know it,” she said.

Superior Animal Rescue up for contract renewal During her statement, she canvassed problems such as backyard breeding and the lack of volunteers SAR has come up against. She noted that she felt it would cost more to have the county handle this problem than continue with SAR. Following the statement given by Dodge, several members of the public

from within Superior and surrounding areas rose to give statements of support, commenting on the immense impact SAR’s efforts have had on the feline/canine community. During the discussion several feasible options were devised and the council, needing more information and time to

make a decision tabled this issue for further discussion. If you have an opinion on what should happen concerning the contract with Superior Animal Rescue, please contact Superior Town Hall or a member of the Town Council to have your opinion noted before a decision is made.

By Taylor Beard As the year draws to a close, the Superior Town Council is acutely aware of the audits that are coming due. Both audits for 2009 and 2010 were due to be finished and finalized by this December 2011. However, due to complications with the transfer of information and updates in software, things are moving along more slowly than hoped. In a previous meeting, the council asked for additional help to be brought on board to expedite the transfer of information to the firm, Colby and Powell, which is handling the audits. It was announced during Thursday’s council meeting that Rita Wentzel has been brought on as a temporary employee to help get the finances in order thus moving the process along more quickly. The disbursement of both the final Independent Auditor’s report for fiscal year 2009 and the Arizona Auditor General’s report of Pinal County’s Transportation Excise Tax was announced during the meeting. Chief Lou Digiralamo advised the council to take an additional work session to discuss the findings of these two reports. “I want a little more time to review the report…it’s a lot of numbers to take

Council has work session on audit, excise tax

in, a lot of reading and examining what we’ve done,” Mayor Jayme Valenzuela said. The rest of the council was in agreement with his opinion. A work session was set aside for Thursday, Dec. 15, prior to the regularly scheduled council meeting, at 5 p.m. The town will bring in both of their finance employees to the meeting to answer any

questions that the council has for them. Councilman Hank Gutierrez stated that he would like the employees to be able to explain the correlation between the state audit of the excise tax and the 2009 audit findings. For more information on this work session or the recently disbursed audit reports, please contact Superior Town Hall.

By Mila Lira Each Christmas Eve, Santa travels up and down each street in Superior giving out small toys to each child living or visiting Superior for the holidays. This community tradition is made possible by the leadership of the Superior Fire Department and donations made throughout the community. The fire department needs about 1,200 toys

to provide a gift to each child on Christmas Eve. Donations from local corporations BHP, Omya and Resolution Copper provide about a third of the toys needed but the remainder of the toys comes by donations from local citizens and other businesses. At press time the fire department only has about 380 toys for their 2011 Christmas Eve delivery. In order to meet their

Superior Fire Department needs toys for Toy Driveneeds the department needs small toys in the price range of two to five dollars. Gifts are provided first to young children; if additional funds are available the department

does purchase small gifts for teens. You can help support this community tradition by donating toys or money to the Superior Fire Department. Those

wishing to donate toys or money may drop off their donation at the Superior Fire Department at 236 Golf Course Road. Checks should be made out to Superior Fire

Department. For more information on the amount of toys needed or to assist with wrapping the presents, please call the fire department at 520-689-5671.

The Crush is an exciting barbershop quartet from the Far Western District of the Barbershop Harmony Society comprised of four energetic men in their 20s out of Orange County, CA. The Crush was formed in 2006 and just one year later earned a Silver Medal in the BHS International Collegiate Barbershop Quartet Contest. In July of 2009, The Crush was fortunate enough to appear in their first BSH International Semi-Finals Round, finishing 18th among competitive quartets from around the world. In the fall of 2010 The Crush outscored the competition by quite a margin to capture the FWD Quartet Championship. Music performed by The

Crush consists of barbershop, swing, and vocal jazz arrangements. This energetic group is known for their tight, bright harmonies and youthful, toe-tapping energy. The group consists of Tenor: Matthew Gray; Lead: Josh Szolomayer; Baritone: John Brockman; and Bass: Paul Tabone. And next Saturday, these talented young men will be performing locally. Plan to attend this Community Concert performance of this toe-tapping Barbershop Quartet, The Crush on Saturday, Dec. 10, 2011 at 4 p.m. in the Miami High School Auditorium. For more information phone (928) 425-6466 or (928) 425-9236.

We are going to be proactive about this, address it and take it head on and deal with the problem.” Currently Lant is monitoring the size of the piles at the transfer station. Councilman Gutierrez stated, “[Jochai] is

Town staff and the council are currently working on the inspection; once finished it will be turned into the ADEQ for their determination. For more information on this issue, please contact Superior Town Hall.
