LETTER TO THE EDITOR Vote Yes for New Roads! Propositions 416 & 417 are good for everyone Registered Voters of Pinal County should have received a mail in ballot for Propositions 416 and 417. These propositions approve a comprehensive transportation plan for Pinal County and adds a retail sales tax to fund the construction of the plan. The voters of Pinal County must vote to approve both propositions before we can build the new roads that are desperately needed for Pinal County.

Yes, this proposition will raise the sales taxes across the county. It is estimated that this tax will cost the average family in Pinal County 24 cents a day. The 24 cents is a long term investment into our local economy. Improved roads and infrastructure will help to attract new businesses and jobs to the county, create a much needed north-south freeway and most importantly build and repair roads that will improve public safety, which keeps our loved ones safe.

As the Mayor of Superior, I am ecstatic to see that the

communities of Eloy, Kearny, Mammoth and Superior will each receive $300,000 every year for 20 years.

This new funding stream, if approved by voters, will ensure these communities have adequate budgets to make significant road improvements. For Superior, these funds will condense the 20 year pavement improvement plan into 10 years. The funding will also help to build new park and ride locations and increase dial a ride services throughout the County.

I am asking you to vote yes on Propositions 416 and 417, help us to pave the way to a thriving future for Superior, the Copper Corridor and Pinal County. You can learn more about the propositions and the projects that the tax will fund at: http:// yeson416and417.com Sincerely, /s/ Mila Besich-Lira Mayor of Superior

Superior town manager addresses ad hoc committee on public safety retirement system

By Cat Brown Superior Sun Old firefighters never die. They just burn forever in the hearts of the people whose lives they saved.

But what happens when they want to retire?

That is the question that the Arizona State Legislature is trying to answer. An Ad Hoc Study Committee on the Public Safety Personnel Retirement System has been traveling throughout the state asking city and town officials their opinions.

On Tuesday, Oct. 3 at 5 p.m. at the Globe City Hall Council Chambers, three of the towns from District 1 were invited to address the committee. The three towns asked to present to the committee were Globe, Miami and Superior. Seated on the committee are: David Livingston from District 22, David Stringer from District 1, Noel Campbell from District 1, Charlene Fernandez from District 4, Bob Thorpe from District 6, and David Cook from District 8.

The statewide Public Safety Personnel Retirement system is critically underfunded and the cost of this unfunded liability has been passed onto the cities and towns in the form of extremely high pension payments. For the smaller towns this has created an extreme challenge coming up with the pension payments. For example, Globe unfunded liability is $10.8 million, forcing them to pay 60 cents on the dollar for every police officer.

Mayor Al Grameros and Manager Paul Jepson from Globe focused on the difficulties their city has had working through solutions to the problem. Globe has been very proactive, creating a plan to pay down the liability and making a significant payment toward the plan, but the PSPRS structure has been difficult to work with, having few tools to help cities navigate through the problem.

Miami Town Manager Joseph Heatherly focused on the numbers, breaking down the problems with the poor performance of the fund compared to other funds of the same type, and how this affected his town’s liability. He also stated that his town is facing significant challenges, with a shrinking population and failing infrastructure, and the town of Miami does not have the money to pay the high PSPRS rates and reimbursements.

Superior Town Manager Todd Pryor discussed how these

numbers affect the communities they serve, as well as the police and fire personnel in each of the communities. The small towns retirement benefits are too low to actually allow personnel to live on their retirement benefits, forcing the members to work longer and leave the small towns for greener pastures at high rates. The high cost of employment created by the ever-rising costs of medical insurance and retirement programs increases costs to not only the town, but to employees themselves. Mr. Pryor also discussed how these out of control costs will limit the Cities’ and Towns’ ability to grow and improve.

The committee thanked the local executives for their testimony and mentioned of the four meetings they have held so far this was by far the most informative meeting.

By Andrew Luberda Copper Area News Fresh off its move to the top spot in the 1A rankings, the Superior football team had its worst performance to date last Friday night. The result was a 43 – 16 loss at No. 2 Mogollon, the team the Panthers overtook for No. 1.

Superior posted season-low totals in yardage and points scored while allowing a season-high in points allowed. It’s difficult to expect success using that formula.

“We got off to a bad start,” Superior head coach Ryan Palmer told the Superior Sun. “We never really got on track and played our worst game of the season. (We have to) give Mogollon some credit for that.”

“Mogollon is a tough team that plays hard and tackles extremely well,” he continued. “It dominated the line of scrimmage on both sides of the ball.”

In what was sign of things to come, Superior mishandled the opening kickoff, forcing it to start at the shadow of its own endzone. Four plays later, the Panthers’ punt was blocked and the Mustangs took advantage, scoring on a two-yard dive to grab a way-too-quick 6 – 0 lead.

“That set the tone for the rest of the night,” Palmer said about the sequence of plays at the start.

The Panthers’ defense, which had allowed a combined total of 38 points entering Friday’s game, including threeconsecutive shutouts in September, missed too many tackles against the Mustangs, according to Palmer.

The unit was missing a player or two due to injury and relied on inexperienced players to step in. Palmer refused to offer any of it as an excuse. Instead, he held his team accountable for its performance while crediting Mogollon as well.

“We would have a player dead to rights in the gap and we would either miss or slide off the tackle,” said Palmer, adding that typical one-yard runs turned into touchdowns as a result. “Mogollon ran hard, but if (we) can’t tackle, (we) won’t win.”

Superior suffers first loss of season The Superior offense wasn’t immune to an off night either, as the 16 points scored on Friday night was more than 40 points less than its season average.

Junior quarterback Steven Ybarra did throw a touchdown pass to senior receiver Cedric Mendoza, who later left the game with an injury. Jesus Castellanos accounted for the Panthers’ lone rushing touchdown.

Ybarra finished 10-of-26 for 139 yards and was limited to 78 rushing yards, both yardage total well below his pergame average.

The East Region Champion Panthers close out their regular season on Friday against NFL Yet Academy. It will

be Senior Night as the Panthers look to finish the region portion of their schedule undefeated.

Clearly, the Panthers lost to a good a team but arguably the greatest opponent they faced last Friday was themselves.

“We must execute better,” Palmer answered when asked if last week’s performance had more to do with his own team or Mogollon. “We dropped 10 passes, couldn’t get a block or make a tackle all night, and had more holding calls against us then we have had all year.

“Without strong fundamentals and discipline, it is hard to win any football game.”

Getting their mojo back before the playoffs is also important. It shouldn’t be a problem for a team that’s been one of the best in the state.

“Until last Friday, we had only lost two games in the last three years,” Palmer said. “Both were in the state semifinals by a combined eight points.”

“These kids haven’t experienced losing very much, and have never experienced a butt kicking like we just took,” Palmer added. “Hopefully it lights a fire and we come out humbled, hungry, and ready to work harder than ever.”

Kickoff for this Friday’s regular-season finale is scheduled for 7 p.m.

Carlson steps up as leader for Lowry girls golf team LHS junior attempting to win Player of the Year Tatyana Carlson has been a staple on the Lowry High School girls golf team since her freshman year in 2015.

A season ago, she barely missed out on winning Player of the Year in the Northern 3A, while the Lady Bucks finished third as a team in the state championships.

Since last fall, Carlson has pushed herself to get even better, but she has taken on a bigger role and stepped up as the voice and leader of the Lady Bucks in 2017.

“I felt like I had to step up and be the leader, so everyone had someone to look up to as an experienced golfer,”

Carlson said. “I have to show the (new) girls what to and what not to do — like golf etiquette and staying positive.”

Staying positive is something Carlson is working on herself, learning to keep her emotions in check while on the course when things are not going as well as they might.

“I am trying my best to not let things bother me like they did before,” she added. “I think I have done a lot better job of doing that this year. I need to be stronger and show the girls not to let a bad hole bother you and ruin your day.”

As a freshman, Carlson entered into an experienced group of upperclassmen on the Lady Bucks squad. She led the team in scoring average that season and placed 10th as an individual at the state tournament. She repeated that feat in 2016.

Graduation took its toll on Lowry’s golf team. Carlson and Hannah Havens were the only returning players this fall. Havens has also been a part of the squad since her freshman year. Lowry head coach Todd Milton did not know if Lowry was going to be able to fill a full team at the start of August. However, freshmen Angelina Martinez and Kaitlyn Hales and junior Mekenzie Vandemark joined the squad, giving Lowry

enough players to compete as a team.

“I honestly did not know if we were going to have a team,” Milton said. “All my energy was going to be thrown at Tatyana and Hannah to get them to state as individuals.

It has been a pleasant surprise this year. This group of girls have been great and the trips are a blast. Tatyana has stepped up basically as my assistant coach. She takes over when I cannot be there because of my job. She is in a fight for Player of the Year honors and the first thing she is concerned about is her teammates and making them better and wanting to see them improve.”

With three new players, Lowry finds itself in a prime spot to return to the state tournament on Oct. 18-19 in Pahrump.

The Lady Bucks are third in the regional standings behind Elko and Spring Creek with four tournaments to play.

“The teams from last year and this year are completely different by all means honestly,” Carlson said. “This year, we are all involved in everything. We do team builders, go to lunch together and we talk about anything and everything. It’s not a difference between upperclassmen and lowerclassmen.”

Last year, Carlson finished fourth at the state tournament, but her play was not to her liking. Since last October, she has made Winnemucca Municipal Golf Course her second home.

“This year I really wanted to golf and set my expectations a little higher,” she said.

“That way,I could complete goals I have set for myself. I try to push the girls to get goals for themselves, too. As a captain, I think the girls can look at me as a leader. You are out there playing as an individual, but this really is a team sport. You come together as a team.”

Over the past couple of years, Carlson has battled Elko’s Annika Criss for the top individual spot in the Northern 3A. Criss was the Player of the Year in the Northern 3A last year. However, Carlson stopped short of saying their relationship was a rivalry.

“We go back-and-forth and back and forth,”Carlson said. “We have a good friendship, honestly. We don’t hate each other by any means. We always compliment each other on our games and shots we make. But, we still want to beat each other on the course every time we play. My goal is to be Player of the Year.”

In the first four tournaments this season, Carlson won two events and Criss two. Criss

was victorious on her home course in Elko and a tournament in Truckee in a twoholePlayoff.

“Honestly, it’s between those two,” Milton said.

The coach remarked on Carlson’s dedication to improve herself. “Tatyana has worked on her mental approach a lot. I can still tell by her body language whether she is having a good day or bad day. It is not as pronounced as it was the last couple of years,” Milton said,”The only time she got emotional (this year) was losing the playoff in Truckee.

“But, that is the competitor in her. She was mad she lost. She had it won going into the final hole. This is my third year with her. She has always had the golfing ability, but I am now seeing a totally different role with her.

She has matured as a young lady. She came in as a freshman with a team of dominant personalities. She took what she learned as a freshman and took it and turned into a positive for all the girls. Her consistency has been great this year.”

Even though Carlson is still a junior, she has hopes for a scholarship to play college golf in the future. She wants to major in sports medicine or physical therapy.

“It is rewarding when you see other coaches at Lowry take notice at what Tatyana is doing,” Milton said. “Golf is one of the Lowry sports, but forgotten at times.

We don’t play at Lowry and on our own. I can’t tell you how many coaches from the different programs and have complimented Tatyana and her dedication. That tells you everything you need to know about her.”

Tatyana is the granddaughter of Nacho and Dora Villaverde of Superior.

Vatican appoints new bishop to Diocese of Tucson

Bishop of Diocese of the Diocese of Salina in Kansas becomes seventh Bishop of Tucson Pope Francis has transferred Bishop Edward Joseph Weisenburger from the Diocese of Salina to the Diocese of Tucson, Ariz. The Holy See made the announcement late last week in Rome. Weisenburger was notified last week by the Apostolic Nuncio, Archbishop Pierre Christophe, that Pope Francis was entrusting to him the pastoral care of the good people of the Diocese of Tucson.

Bishop Gerald F. Kicanas, sixth Bishop of Tucson, submitted his resignation in accord with Church law after having reached his 75th birthday. Following today, he will serve as the administrator of the Diocese until Weisenburger’s installation. Weisenburger’s appointment comes more than a year after Kicanas’ offered his retirement.

Bishop Kicanas said, “We are blessed that the Holy Father Pope Francis has appointed as our seventh Bishop in the Diocese of Tucson, a caring and loving pastor and shepherd for our community. He will walk with us, listen

to us and stand up for us. His many gifts will provide the pastoral leadership we need. He will be a collaborative worker with diocesan personnel, interfaith leaders and all those with responsibility in this vast diocese of 43,000 square miles.”

Weisenburger served as a priest of the Archdiocese of Oklahoma City for almost 25 years. On Feb. 6, 2012, he was appointed Bishop of Salina by Pope Benedict XVI. His ordination, which marked the beginning of his ministry, was on May 1, 2012, at Salina’s Sacred Heart Cathedral. His installation as Bishop of Tucson will take place on Nov. 29, 2017.

The Diocese of Salina serves approximately 44,000 Catholics. The Diocese of Tucson, which borders with Mexico, serves approximately 450,000 Catholics, many of whom are Spanish speaking. Weisenburger enjoys a working knowledge of Spanish and has always treasured his ministry with the

Hispanic community. Weisenburger also has an intense concern and love for the well-being of migrants, refugees, and Native American peoples. He is humbled by Pope Francis’ appointment and hopes to join with the bishops of Arizona and New Mexico in being an articulate and indispensable voice of compassion for all immigrants.

Weisenburger said, “I am humbled to follow in the footsteps of a shepherd who has served graciously and generously for many years.

Bishop Kicanas has served in many national capacities for the Catholic Church and is highly esteemed. Knowing that he will continue to reside in our Diocese is a great comfort for me and a blessing for our people.”

Catholic Parishes in the Copper Corridor, including St. Francis of Assisi (Superior), Infant Jesus of Prague (Kearny), St. Joseph’s (Hayden), Blessed Sacrament (Mammoth), St. Bartholomew’s (San Manuel) and St. Helen’s (Oracle), are part of the Diocese of Tucson.

Globe Police taking back unwanted prescription drugs Oct. 28, 2017 at Fry’s in Globe On Saturday, Oct. 28, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. the Globe and Miami Police Departments along with the Copper Basin Coalition, Gila County Sheriff’s Office, and the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) will give the public its 14th opportunity in 7 years to prevent pill abuse and theft by ridding their homes of potentially dangerous expired, unused, and unwanted prescription drugs. Bring your pills for disposal to the drive up / walk up booth outside of Fry’s Food and Drug on Highway 60 in Globe. The DEA cannot accept liquids, sharps (needles), only pills or patches. This service is free and anonymous, no questions asked.

Used sharps, like syringes or lancets, can be disposed of at the Gila County Public Health Department in Globe. Limited supplies of sharps containers are currently available for the public if you are unable to obtain one.

Last April Americans turned in 450 tons (900,000 pounds) of prescription drugs at almost 5,500 sites operated by the DEA and more than 4,200 of its state and local law enforcement partners.

Overall, in its 13 previous Take Back events, DEA and

its partners have taken in over 8.1 million pounds— more than 4,050 tons—of pills.

This initiative addresses a vital public safety and public health issue.

Medicines that languish in home cabinets are highly susceptible to diversion, misuse, and abuse. Rates of prescription drug abuse in the U.S. are alarmingly high, as are the number of accidental poisonings and overdoses due to these drugs. Studies show that a majority of abused prescription drugs are obtained from family and friends, including from the home medicine cabinet. In addition, Americans are now advised that their usual methods for disposing of unused medicines—flushing them down the toilet or throwing them in the trash—both pose potential safety and health hazards.

For more information about the disposal of prescription drugs or about the October 28 Take Back Day event, contact: Globe Police Department (928) 425-5751, Miami Police Department (928) 4732466, Gila County Sheriff’s Office (928) 425-4449 or the Gila County Public Health Department (928) 402-8811.

YOU DEMANDED IT. YOU GOT IT. THE PEOPLE’S PLAN! The complaints. The frustrations. The pleas.

For years Pinal County residents have demanded better transportation. More roads and freeways. For shorter commutes. For safer roads. For just getting around. The politicians listened.

It took time. Years. Of listening and community meetings. Plan after plan. Study after study.

- Pinal County Supervisor Pete Rios

No plan is perfect but the good is not the enemy of the great and on November 7th we have THE chance, perhaps the only one in the next 20 years, to dramatically improve our quality of life, drives, jobs, economic development, public safety, and new resources that can help all of us. Everyone wins, everyone gets help from small towns to our biggest ones if we vote Yes on Propositions 416 and 417.

“

The wait is now over. November 7th is a chance, the chance, to finally get more roads and freeways

“If this gets voted down there are no magic funds to pay for new roads and freeways, or for transportation help for the neediest among us. Period.

There is just no other way to pay for the help people are demanding and the jobs that will be created than Propositions 416 and 417. It’s a very small price to pay for very big benefits for my district.”

in Pinal County. You can check out the plan at YesOn416And417.com.

“The people put me in office and are my boss forever and always. And to do my job best, and get to you fastest when you need it most, our county MUST have better roads and freeways. I-10 is among the most dangerous freeways in the COUNTRY. Other areas in Pinal County are very bad too. Help me do my job better, for you.

Join me in voting Yes!” - Pinal County Sheriff Mark Lamb

Paid for by New Roads and Freeways Before It’s Too Late: Yes on Propositions 416 and 417. Major Funding provided
