Pinal County Board of Supervisors – Reflect, Celebrate & Look Ahead

by Madelaine Braggs | Rose Law Group Reporter

The Pinal County Board of Supervisors is reflecting on nearly a decade of  accomplishments and developments for the community. Harold Christ, President and CEO of Pinal Partnership, kicked off today’s virtual panel discussion by noting how celebrations are “bittersweet” as several board members reach the end of their terms in January.

Rose Law Group Founder and President Jordan Rose strolled down memory lane with Supervisors Pete Rios, Mike Goodman, Steve Miller, Anthony Smith and Todd House.  Below are paraphrased excerpts from the conversation.

What’s a word that describes your tenure?

Smith: Perhaps I’m not the most exciting type of speaker, but I’m the most steady. People often describe my work ethic as steady leadership.

Rios: Salt of the earth. People often tell me you know what you’re doing, and there’s resliency.

House: Accomplishment. We have been able to accomplish a LOT! A lot that maybe people thought we’d never be able to get to and we’ve set a high bar for future supervisors. I couldn’t be more proud of what we’ve accomplished over the last 8 years.

Goodman: Persistent. Some people say I’m overbearing, but I like to say I’m just persistent.

Miller: Consistency. I don’t deviate from my stance or position, whether you disagree with me or agree with me, you probably know how I’m gonna vote.
