The Pinal County Board of Supervisors has rejected petitions from a citizens group seeking a vote by San Tan Valley residents on whether the community should form a city.
The supervisors noted the citizens’ petitions apparently were defective because they were submitted without a resolution. Also, a random sampling of signatures turned up a high number of invalid ones. If the same error rate were found for all the petitions, there wouldn’t be enough valid signatures to succeed, according to the resolution the supervisors passed at Monday’s special meeting.
