Posted

Community Working Group invites public comments on Superior Historic Legacy for May 23 meeting.

The next meeting of the Town of Superior Community Working Group (CWG) will be held Wednesday, May 23 at 6 p.m. in the Superior Chamber of Commerce meeting room.

The group will continue its discussion of how to preserve Superior’s historic mining legacy when the old mine smelter stack and associated West Plant buildings are demolished.

The CWG and the Town of Superior are asking Superior area residents for suggestions about how the historic legacy of mining in Superior should be preserved for future generations.

People are invited to attend CWG meetings and can also provide their thoughts and ideas by visiting the CWG website at superiorazcwg.org/comment-form/.

The CWG includes residents and stakeholders from the Town of Superior, Queen Valley, Hewitt Station, Globe, the San Carlos community and around the area.

The group deals with the social and environmental issues, science and policy, and the pros and cons of the proposed Resolution Copper Project. Topics include environmental impacts, health, safety, natural resource issues, engineering, water quantity and quality, geology, economics, air quality, community investments, recreational changes and other related subjects.

Meetings are held at the Superior Chamber of Commerce at 165 West Main in Superior from 6-8 p.m.

The public is welcome, and time is reserved on the agenda for everyone’s comments, questions, and discussion.

More information about the CWG, as well as agendas, meeting summaries, and past presentations are available for public review at the Superior Chamber of Commerce offices and at the Superior Public Library at 99 North Kellner Avenue, as well as online at SuperiorAZCWG.org
