Supervisors Move To OK White Fire Company
The Maricopa County Board of Supervisors is set to certify the White headed volunteer fire company with Malcolm White as chief and Ruth Adams as secretary treasurer. A court action earlier blocked initial certification but a judge dismissed the complaint, clearing the path for official recognition of the group and its listed firefighters including Bob Adams and George Thomas Jr. The dispute began after a disputed June meeting and temporary restraining orders.
