Hornat & Solomon Are Up To No Good Concerning Rescinding Of Resolution Against Rosemount Mine

For those readers that pay attention to the Oro Valley Town Council agenda, you'll note something quite disturbing.

The original agenda had an item by a prior council rescinding a resolution made on April 18, 2007, where the then Mayor and Council unanimously approved Resolution No. (R)07-55, strongly opposing the proposed Rosemont mine in southeastern Pima County. A letter was prepared and delivered to Senators John McCain and Jon Kyl, as well as Representatives Raul Grijalva and Gabrielle Giffords, indicating the formal opposition of the Town to the mine.

Now, for whatever reason, Hornat & Solomon not only want to rescind that resolution, but it somehow was removed from agenda item 5 and now it is on the Consent Agenda (did they think they could "sneak" it through?)for the June 15 meeting.

This looks like nothing other than some devious shenanigans by Hornat (perhaps another reason for his recall) and "The Appointed One," Solomon.

As we said; "Hornat & Solomon are up to No Good on whatever they're trying to pull off here.

Rosemont Mine Opposition

"LOVE" has received the following email from reader Sean Sullivan, with the local Sierra Club Group.

I am with the local Sierra Club Group, the Rincon Group, and have been working with the Town Council and Manager to get a resolution opposing Rosemont Mine on their agenda. They are considering a resolution that is strongly opposed to the mine tomorrow, Wednesday the 18th. The Council members I have heard back from are in favor of the resolution and oppose the mine. I do not expect there to be any opposition to the resolution. It would be great to get some Oro Valley residents to show up and support the Council’s opposition to Rosemont Mine. The resolution (R) 07-55, item is currently listed as fourth on the agenda, but it may be moved up to the first action item, so it would be heard near 7PM. What: Oro Valley Town Council meeting

When: Wednesday, April 18th @ 7PM
Where: Oro Valley Town Hall
Why: To support the Town council in passing a resolution opposing mining in the Santa Rita Mountains
