For the November Pinal Partnership breakfast, city and town managers of Pinal County gathered to discuss the future of their communities at the Windmill Winery.
A common refrain in the discussion Thursday was how to hold onto the small town character that people love in Pinal County while fostering economic growth. Also, everyone was excited that Propositions 416 and 417 had passed this month, proclaiming the road plan and new funding as a critical step for economic development.
The panel was asked why people like living in their respective towns. Everyone touted the small town community feel and open space. Superior Town Manager Todd Pryor noted that in his community, many people truly do know everyone in town.
