Superior, Arizona

The Town of Superior was incorporated in 1976 and has seen the community change and evolve over the years.   The reason a community incorporates is to allow the residents of those incorporated boundaries to elect their Mayor and Town Council.  That Mayor and Town Council then represent the people of the community and decide on policy and set the budget for the community. 

  The Council is also responsible for hiring of a town manager and police chief.  Other key department heads are managed and hired by the Town Manager.  Superior hired Todd Pryor as the Town Manager in the Spring of 2016.   In his term as Manager, he has helped to develop processes and procedures for the financial department, worked out a plan for the re-opening of the transfer station, among other things. 

  In the coming months, there will be more information provided to the public on the completion of the pavement study that will help to determine the priorities for local road improvement. The wastewater treatment rate study is now complete and that will help the council to determine an adequate and reasonable rate for sewer services. This will allow the town to apply for grants to help with much needed improvements to the wastewater treatment plant. And in addition, the Arizona Department of Transportation has awarded the Town a $247,000 grant to conduct a master plan for the airport on the western edge of the town limits.

  A good portion of the revenues raised to operate the town comes from sales tax and property taxes.  Shopping local and supporting the local businesses is a great way to support your community as a whole.  The Town of Superior is a member of the Superior Chamber of Commerce and is looking forward to growing a strong relationship with the Chamber to continue to support the community as a whole.
