Arizona Game & Fish Commissioners Meet Tomorrow (Feb. 6)
From comments included in the announcement, it seems to me that the Commissioners are more concerned with retaining the option to develop the land and not preserve it for wildlife. They opposed creating the monument in 2012. Attend the meeting in Wickenburg, AZ or TUNE IN to hear Utah Republican Fred Ferguson’s presentation to the Commission.
From the AZ Game & Fish Announcement:
“Tomorrow (Feb. 6), the commission will hear a presentation on an innovative, collaborative approach to public land use planning in Utah. Fred Ferguson, the chief of staff to U.S. Rep. Jason Chaffetz (R-Utah), will provide an overview of the collaborative efforts that stakeholders from the development, conservation, outdoor recreation, and sportsmen’s communities have undertaken to develop the Daggett County lands proposal agreement, as part of the broader Utah Public Lands Initiative.
The commission meeting will be held on Friday, Feb. 6, beginning at 8 a.m., at the Wickenburg Town Hall Council Chambers, 155 N. Tegner St. in Wickenburg, Ariz. The public is invited to attend. The complete agenda is posted at www.azgfd.gov/inside_azgfd/meeting_agenda.shtml.
The meeting will also be streamed to the different Game and Fish offices, and will be available via webcast at www.azgfd.gov/commissioncam.
