Representatives from APS, Sarah Ann Ranch and the city of Surprise met 4 p.m. Wednesday afternoon for further discussion on a 230-kilovolt power line approved on Cactus Road that would cut through the southwest Surprise community’s greenbelt.
Following the session, Joe Mansour, who has been acting as the residents’ spokesman, stated in an email, “we had a great meeting with the Mayor of the our city and APS senior officials.”
The session included Mayor Sharon Wolcott and District 3 City Councilman John Williams and an assistant city manager.
“The Mayor recommended that we, the Community, APS and the city work together on an option that would make everyone happy. Therefore I am asking all the residence to stand down. What I mean by that is, no more media, no more demonstrations, and go ahead and stop sending letters to all the congressional staff.
