Posted by Jim Ferman on February 28th, 2006I stumbled upon this website in my search for information for a speech I was writing to present at the upcoming Wickenburg Town Council meeting on Monday, March 6th.
I am so glad to see that there are other concerned citizens who truly care about the direction our special little town is headed. I think most of us moved here originally because we wanted to live in a place where there was open space, little pollution and friendly neighbors.
