Members of the County Attorney's Office Victim Services Unit are pictured below left with Supervisors Cavanaugh, McClure, Goodman, and Serdy. Supervisor Miller was absent from the meeting.

• In the Supervisor District Updates item, District 1 Supervisor Kevin Cavanaugh congratulated Randolph on being listed in the National Register of Historic Places. The unincorporated town, located south of Coolidge, is commonly known as the oldest predominantly African American community in Arizona. Click here to read more. Cavanaugh and District 4 Supervisor Jeffrey McClure both addressed recent news that the FCC (Federal Communications Commission) has agreed to a request to split Satellite provider signals within Pinal County, a rare move. Until now, residents in the south of Pinal County have received Phoenix news stations through their satellite provider, which it was argued is dangerous in the event of an emergency, such as a wildfire, since it is more likely to be covered by Tucson news stations. District 5 Supervisor Jeff Serdy touted a pilot workforce program for Summertime Youth Employment in Kearny, Superior, and Dudleyville in the east of the County. Serdy also played a video highlighting the important role that Environmental Health and the Sheriff's Office play in ensuring Country Thunder in Florence is a successful event.

Goodman was told that these reservoirs are currently 90% full.
