It has been a while since I have written a Mayor’s Minute column. So many good things have been happening in town. With the recent rains the roads in town have become much worse, even our youth are asking, “When are these pot holes going to be filled?”
The Town was able to purchase new equipment for the Public Works crew to fill the pot holes which included a concrete cutter and heater for the asphalt. This will allow the patches in the road to last much longer and hopefully prevent more cracking in the road. Our public works crew is working hard to fill the pot holes and provide some relief. The Council also voted to go out to bid to slurry seal Sunset Drive and fix the big bump in the road by the Little League. We may miss that old bump…
This past weekend the Governing Board of the Superior School District, the Town Council and the Superior Chamber of Commerce board met in a facilitated meeting to set a course on how the three groups can work together on “Rebuilding the Superior We Want.” We talked about how each groups needs to support one another to tell Superior’s story and to work together to improve on business development, education along with blight and infrastructure. We all walked away with goals and plans that will help us to celebrate Superior and plan for our future.
Apache Leap Mining Festival is coming up on March 17-19, the Chamber has a wonderful line up of activities and entertainment. I hope to see our community out enjoying the event!
