always good to help our middle class working families and all Pinal County taxpayers. One of the big questions we have been facing over the past two years was the potential impact of a state prisoner shift. This would have taken state inmates with a year or less on their sentence and placed them in county facilities. This legislation, if put into effect, would have cost Pinal County taxpayer over $3 million a year. I am pleased to tell you that through our efforts of explaining the massive cost of this legislation to legislative leaders and Governor Jan Brewer, the prisoner shift was rescinded. I give a sincere thank you to our state leaders for their help to stop this bad piece of legislation. In the past four years, this county has been in the situation of many counties across the nation—we have been forced to do more with less. We have had to cut back on some

Superior Police ReportBy Rev. Dennis Van GorpFamily Life Christian Center In Proverbs 11:11 we read: “Through the blessing of the upright a city (or nation) is exalted, but by the mouth of the wicked it is destroyed.” According to the character and attitudes of the people, a nation can move forward in the right direction or backward in the wrong direction. In Proverbs 29:2 we find that when the righteous thrive, the people rejoice. Verse 12 adds, “If a ruler listens to lies, all

his officials become wicked.” Jesus told us that Christians are the salt of the earth and a light shining in the darkness of sin. The meaning here is that ‘we’ can make a difference in our nation and city. We live in a nation that, unlike some, was founded on the principle of religious freedom. Some are founded and run by a national religion. We are free to worship and serve the god of our choice, or not. In the Bible, we discover a national principle. If we

desire to live in peace and prosperity, we must pray for those in leadership over us. That is – through the blessing of the righteous a city or nation is exalted. The normal procedure for many is to complain to other people and to God about the decisions and laws made by those in leadership. The Biblical answer is to pray before the elections for God’s will to be accomplished. Then, regardless of who wins, we are to pray for them to listen to the right advisors and then make decisions

By Mila Lira The Superior Substance Abuse Coalition has a full agenda for the summer. During the June monthly meeting, SSAC shared a new brochure that they created regarding the disposal of prescription drugs. The Coalition and the Superior Police Department are working with the Pinal County Sheriff’s Office

and the Pinal County Attorney’s Office to have a prescription drug drop off box in Superior. The Coalition has recently addressed the fact that prescription drug abuse is becoming more prevalent. While it has been common practice throughout America to just dump unused drugs down the drain or flush down the toilet experts are finding

that those practices are not good for the environment. At this time Superior does not have a drug drop off; the Coalition recommends that if you have drugs to get rid of that you should dissolve the drugs in water then mix the water substance with kitty litter, coffee, or salt, place in a sealed container and then dispose in your trash can on pick up day. You

that encourage and benefit the people. Wouldn’t that make life easier? Our Pledge of Allegiance says it: we are one nation – under God – with liberty and justice for all! As we serve the Lord and commit to worshipping Him, we change the atmosphere around us. That has a beneficial effect on those around us. As we pray for our country and especially for those involved in its leadership, we are helping them to make

right decisions. “Love and faithfulness keep a leader safe, through love his position is made secure. By justice a leader gives a country stability. When a leader rules in righteousness, he rules in the fear of God.” Pray for our nation, our President and congress, all those who advise our leaders, and all who serve in our armed forces. Pray also for our city, county and state leadership that they govern in the people’s best interests. Pray that the Lord’s will be done and that He will be exalted and honored in all that we accomplish.

By Chase KampSpecial to the Sun The Pinal County Board of Supervisors approved a fiscal year 2012-13 budget totaling just over $334.5 million at its regular meeting on Jun. 21, 2012. The approved budget includes a five percent decrease in the property tax mill rate, from $3.99 per $1,000 of assessed value down to $3.79. County Sheriff Paul Babeu tried to angle for more allotted overtime

dollars. PCSO overtime funds were reduced from $1.7 million to around $1 million in the final budget. “We’re missing critical positions in our jail,” he said, “Over the past four or five months, pods in the jail have had to be locked down. That’s not customary.” County manager Fritz Behring said the $1 million overtime figure was determined by the county budget office through statistical analysis

Supervisors adopt FY2012-13 budgetof PCSO overtime usage trends in the last few months. PCSO drastically cut its overtime use after the department projected a $3.7 million budget overage earlier this year.

A proposal by District 1 Supervisor Pete Rios to allot $80,000 for lobbying services in Washington on behalf of the County was passed on a 2-1 vote just before the budget was unanimously adopted.

Rios said the representation would bolster the County’s visibility for economic interests.

As the lone nay vote, Board Chairman David Snider said he believed “$80,000 doesn’t go a long way in Washington.”

During earlier budget talks, Rios proposed a provision to give County employees a one-time, one-percent pay raise, which did not receive a second motion from the Board. County employees have not seen a pay raise or cost of living adjustment in four years, he argued.

Though his initial bid did not get off the ground, Rios said he planned to

propose a new two-and-a-half percent pay increase to county employees making $75,000 or less. He estimated a cost of roughly $2.6 million to the general fund for the increase, which would provide raises for 1,851 County employees.

“At this stage in the game, that will be my last attempt to get a cost of living increase for County employees,” Rios said.

At recent meetings, County Clerk of the Court Chad Roche and members of the PCSO Deputy’s

Association have spoken in favor of some kind of substantial cost of living wage adjustment.

The County Supervisors retain the ability to introduce raise proposals even though the budget has been finalized.

Though the County avoided a number of costs that were expected to be passed down from the state legislature, Snider said he still felt on guard in the current economic climate.

“In my opinion, we are still facing a very tight time,” Snider said.

Pinal County Supervisor and Chairman of the Board Pete Rios is seeking a second term as Supervisor for District 1. Rios has had a long and illustrious career in both the Arizona State Legislature, where he served as President of the Senate and as Supervi-sor where he has been Chair-man of the Board for the past two years. Supervisor Rios has both a Bachelor’s and Master’s degree from Arizona State University. Taught Sociol-ogy classes at Maricopa

Pharmacy Tech Shift: Days, 40hr/wk

By Betsy Quinn Located about halfway between Superior and Miami on Highway 60, the tiny community of Top of the World has an intriguing history. The area was originally known as Mason’s Valley, then Pinal Ranch. A nickname of Sutton’s Summit has more colorful lore. The name Top of the World actually refers to a dance hall established in the 1920s on the highway east of Pinal Ranch. In November 1870, General George Stoneman, commanding officer of Arizona troops against Indians, was charged with defending the first significant settlement of white men in what later became known as Superior. Stoneman established a small base camp dubbed Picket Post just west of Superior at the base of ‘Tordillo Mountain.’ Stoneman’s troops began an ambitious project to establish a mule trail along Queen Creek into the Pinal mountains ending at Mason Valley, now known as Top of the World. Stoneman intended to make his headquarters at the newly completed Camp Pinal. By August 1871, General George Crook replaced General Stoneman following the Camp Grant Massacre and Camp Pinal was promptly abandoned. Prospectors and ranchers followed immediately and, in 1878, Camp Pinal was resettled by rancher Robert Irion and the Craig

Top of the World isn’t too far away family. The Craig family descendants continued the family tradition of ranching and owned the Pinal Ranch for about 100 years. Very little remains of once productive apple orchards but the ranch house still stands today. Nothing remains of the

original Camp Pinal but the old mule trail, ‘Stoneman’s Grade,’ is an engineering feat can still be seen today from Highway 60 across the Queen Creek Gorge. Local lore also refers to more colorful history and

services for the residents and we have had to let go of some workers while existing employees pick up their duties. I feel it is time to reward many of these employees who have made sacrifices over the past four years with a small pay increase. I will be proposing to my fellow supervisors, in the next board meeting,

to grant a two and half percent increase to any employee making $75,000 a year or less. Since our budget numbers are looking better than we had expected, Pinal County has the capacity to give these deserving employees a pay increase without any increase to our budget. Last month I proposed a one percent pay increase which was effectively derailed by Clerk of the Court Chad Roche and others for a more expensive merit-based system. I would like to wish all of you a very happy and healthy Fourth of July holiday. Sincerely,/s/ Pete RiosVice-Chairman Pinal County Board of Supervisors

LetterContinued from Page 2

By Chase KampSpecial to the Sun Pinal County Sheriff Paul Babeu and five other hopefuls for the office talked policy and tossed criticisms at the Pinal County Deputies Association Debate on June 28, 2012 in Florence. The candidates jabbed Babeu for attracting controversial high-profile media attention and said they would improve PCSO policy, prompting Babeu to argue the candidates only aimed to attack him and had no concrete plans of their own. Candidates participating in the debate were Babeu, Kevin Taylor Jack McClaren, Ty Morgan, Tom Bearup and Glen Milsaps. Babeu leaned hard on his accomplishments in office, framing himself as a champion for his employees.

He said he has fought the Board of Supervisors for wage increases and greater numbers. “I’ve fought to maintain salaries for our staff for competitiveness and to retain employees,” he said. However, the other candidates took swipes at PCSO’s structure and the number of available patrol deputies. Independent candidate Ty Morgan argued PCSO has too many of what he called “inessential high-dollar management jobs.” “We need to put that money into patrol,” he argued. Jack McClaren, who currently serves as Constable for the Apache Junction Justice Court, was most critical of Babeu’s anti-cartel efforts in southern Pinal.

Six candidates for Sheriff at the Deputies Association debate.

Sheriff candidates get feisty at Deputies Association debate

McClaren argued that patrol officers are being taken off their beats to combat smuggling in the Vekol Valley.

“We need to be in a supporting role down there, because we have drug problems right here in our own backyard,” he argued. “We need deputies here to answer your 911 calls.”

Babeu agreed. “Right down the in San Tan Valley there is 83,000 people and 46 patrolmen,” he said.

However, Babeu denied that neighborhood patrol was being thinned because of drug operations, saying PCSO has collaborated with other agencies to take on cartels. “That doesn’t go on,” he said. “I’ve met personally with police chiefs from other agencies to have them be a part of our narcotics task force.”

Debate questions were gathered anonymously from PCSO employees, some of which inquired about employee policies like shift lengths.

“Deputies have been pulled from the roadways, and I know this because they’ve been forced to work a 12-hour shift,” McClaren said. “We need more of them so we can create four ten-hour shifts.” Babeu defended the shift structure currently in place, saying it proved to have the best response times. “We went to the 12-hour shifts because we tried a number of different patrol models and we got the best response time from that,” he said.

trict. Besides being a Child Protective Sevices Specialist he served as Director of the Arizona Children’s Adoption Program. Rios also operated a small private business in Hayden, Az. Rios prides himself in being a tough fighter for working families, children, and the elderly. Also advocating for good-paying jobs, economic development, and a clean en-vironment. Historically he has been endorsed by firefighters, law enforcement, teachers, labor organizations, lawyers, nurses, correctional peace officers, realtors and public employees. “While my opponents talk about what they think they can do for Pinal County, I have been doing it,” states Chairman Rios. “I have been actively involved in major economic development proj-

ects that will bring hundreds of jobs and millions of dollars in payroll and business tax revenues to Pinal County” he states. Projects like Union Pacific’s switching yard and employment center near Picacho. Work with Resolu-tion Copper and Congress in trying to balance jobs and healthy environment for hun-dreds of future good-paying jobs and additional county and state revenues. Working with ASARCO Copper Com-pany to expand operations at the open-pit to sustain and create more mining jobs.. As-sisting with the Phoenix Mart that is bringing in millions of dollars in foreign investments to the county. Work on Pinal Airpark to bring in millions in aviation business to the county. Negotiating with Ari-zona Land Department on the ‘Superstition Vistas’ to ensure planned and orderly growth in Northwest part of the county. Planning and siting future landfills for the county’s

planned continued growth. Working with the Arizona Department of Transporta-tion on the county’s planned North-South Corridor con-necting US 60 in the Northern Pinal County to Inter-State 10 in the South. Completion of Pinal County’s Compre-hensive Plan that plots the county’s development future for the next 30 to 50 years, including an element to deal with the physical availabil-ity of water. Balancing and streamlining the county bud-get to hold the line the past two years with no property tax increases and reducing the county property tax rate for this coming fiscal year.” Rios says “even during the recession of the past several years, Pinal County continued to be either the second or third fastest growing county in the nation. Thus, it is vitally important to elect and have experienced policy-makers on the Pinal County Board of Supervisors.”

the nickname “Sutton’s Summit.” A Mr. Sutton is said to have founded the community. Prior to prostitution becoming illegal, Sutton is said to have established a brothel. Some say Sutton erected a billboard along the highway where the Top O’ The World Trading Post now stands. The Billboard catch phrase was “COME

VISIT OUR LADIES, AND LET THEM PUT YOU ON TOP OF THE WORLD!” It is impossible to say if the lore is fact or fiction, and local residents claim lots of colorful stories in relation to long ago brothels in the community. Top-of the-World is worth a full day stop or side trip. The scenery is breathtaking and the shops and stores are treasure troves of antiques and collectables.
