MOHAVE COUNTY – A pair of powerful elected officials had some intense exchanges during the budget workshop Mohave County Supervisors conducted on Thursday, March 14. The sharpness of the banter between Supervisor Hildy Angius and Presiding Judge Charles Gurtler caught others by surprise. Angius expressed concern about various raises proposed for court staff, including directors in Court Finance and Human Resources.

KINGMAN – Work has begun on the Eight Street underpass drainage and roadway improvement project recently, which will reduce storm water runoff, reduce the duration of ponding, and limit the deposit of storm debris under the underpass, which will allow the underpass to be reopened to traffic sooner after a major storm event. The total cost of the project is $479,000, and a large part of that funding will be paid through a grant the city of Kingman was awarded from the Hazard Mitigation Assistance Program administered by the Arizona Department of Emergency and Military Affairs (AZDEMA).
