The former Western Coconino County Tea Party Patriots began meeting again on Monday March 14, led by Joyce Mechtley, to re-organize the group. The group meet informally to discuss various topics.
Joyce announced a general TEA Party meeting of various Arizona groups on Saturday in Prescott.
It was decided to change the name to the Williams Tea Party as that is what the Flagstaff group refers to them as. The group will still serve for members from Ash Fork, Valle and the surrounding area.
It was decided, also, that the meetings would be held the second Monday of each month. If the group grows to the extent of last year, a board will be selected and board meetings will be held from 6 to 7 pm. The general meeting will follow from 7 to 8:30 pm.
The group will also start a web site as soon as possible. The web site will be administered by Glen Davis. The web site address will most likely be williamsteaparty.com. The plan for the web site is to utilize blog software to make it easier for members to contribute to the site.
George Lockhart brought up the Spring Flower Ranch development and wondered if we could obtain the State growth plan. The Spring Flower Ranch was, apparently, a development planned in Parks which, so far, has suffered due to the economy.
John Lee brought up concerns about the Perrin Ranch wind farm project. Concerns are that the wind generators will not produce enough electricity to be profitable enough to sustain. Eventually, tax payers or APS customers will have to pay extra to keep them running as has happened in England.
There was, also, discussion concerning finding suitable candidates to replace Coconino County Supervisors and other officers.
