The Town Council concluded a decade of legal struggles with Florence Copper Monday night.
“For me this has been a long thing that I’ve watched the town go through, and I’m proud to sit here and say that it’s finally coming to a close,” Vice Mayor Michelle Cordes commented from the council dais. “And that we as a town can move forward. And I hope that we have a good partnership with Florence Copper.
“And if you look at our neighbors who have good partnerships with the mines that are in their towns as well. So for us as a town I think it’s a great thing that we’re moving forward and finally putting an end to all of this,” Cordes said.
