The Waiting Game…
The air was tense on Monday night at the APS/Line Siting Hearing. Over 250 Vistancia residents, aka The Seeing Red Brigade, showed there support to fight APS’s proposed powerlines just north of Vistancia. The panel seemed receptive to the outcry from Cathy Carlat, Peoria’s Vice Mayor and a handful of well prepared Vistancia Residents. 100% of the dozen or so speakers were against the proposed alignment and for the alternative route along Hwy 74. We can only wait and see if APS decides to put the needs of its customers before its own.

UPDATE: AZCentral also says Suprise is up in arms about the section of the proposed powerlines in there area.
