No Settlement With Deputies in Gila County Standoff
Deputies returned to work after a 90 minute meeting with the Gila County Board of Supervisors. Talks focused on forming a negotiation committee and merit system proposals while budgeting limits and staff needs were noted. A separate mid-April sick in saw limited sheriff’s office coverage.

Payson Council approves grants and zoning in busy session
Payson Town Council passed five resolutions including a $14,000 grant for a Town Marshal and patrol car and approved a surplus equipment loan with the Federal Four Corners Regional Commission. An ordinance to license bicycles was sent to committee amid expected public opposition. The council postponed red light and siren authorizations for Fire Department members and studied Main Street McLane intersection fixes while awaiting engineer input. A civil suit by Ridgeway Estates seeks building permits and costs from Payson, with the town named along with Planning Coordinator Bob Loder as defendants.
