State Sen. Gail Griffin on Tuesday breathed life into a bid to bring Green Valley, Sahuarita and nearby mines into Santa Cruz County, though the idea hasn’t proven popular locally.
Griffin, a Cochise County Republican whose District 14 skirts the eastern edge of Green Valley, introduced SB 1357, which would put a boundary change to a vote in Santa Cruz County and to those affected in southern Pima County.
“What I’m hoping for is open dialogue by people who are affected,” Griffin said late Tuesday. She said she has received “lots of calls” about moving the boundary, and “I haven’t heard from anybody who doesn’t want to do it.”
