FURTHERMORE, ALTHOUGH THERE IS NO OBLIGATION TO NECESSARILY FOLLOW PREVIOUSLY STATED INTENTIONS,THERE WERE APPARENTLY STATEMENTS TO DEVELOP THE REST OF THE AREA AS CONVENTIONAL SINGLE FAMILY SUBDIVISIONS. THIS APPEARS TO BE FURTHER SUPPORTED BY PREVIOUS ACTION TAKEN BY PINAL COUNTY TO REZONE THE WEST HALF OF SECTION 30 TO TRAILER HOMESITE IN PINAL COUNTY COMMISSION INITIATIVE CASE NO.11 AND TO REZONE THE EAST HALF OF SECTION 30 TO CR-3 SINGLE RESIDENCE ZONE IN PINAL COUNTY COMMISSION INITIATIVE CASE NO.12. Mayor Clarke made the following statement: "The Council members had a difficult time in making a decision in this case and,unfortunately,there will be more cases of this nature in the nearfuture. The Groundwater Management Law of 1980 has forced property owners and developers to use the only available means to realize a reasonable value of their land. The problem we face today is not with the land owner. I t is not with the developer.I t is not with the Planning and Zoning Commission.I t isdirectly with Arizona Water Company. If Arizona Water Company would sign the contract with the Arizona Department of Water Resources today,subdivision approval could be granted to any developer and/or land owner tomorrow. The McMillan case has brought this issue to the attention of a lot ofcitizens. The City of Apache Junction has been working towards a solution of the water problem and subdivision question for a long time.New efforts are underway now with local and state officials. I ask that all citizens give their support to help us resolve the water issue. Until we accomplish a solution,cases such as this shall continue to confront all of us,causing more unrest,more misunderstandings,and more stumbling blocks to the development of Apache Junction. We all need to work together in promoting the image and the positive growth of our proud city." Mayor Clarke recessed the meeting.
