Vote-Bond Clergy Meeting

40 faith leaders of different denominations from all across Pima County attended an educational session on the 7 County Bond Propositions on the November ballot.  Highlights included:

• Chuck Huckelberry, the County Administrator, gave a presentation and answered clergy questions;
• County Supervisor Richard Elias explained how the Bond will affect the county’s economy;
• PCC student Alec Moreno told how a proposed building for JobPath would impact students like him,
• and finally, County Bond Commission Chair Larry Hecker gave an in-depth report on the bond process. 

Pastors Delle McCormick, Rincon Congregational UCC, and Tom Tureman, S.D.S., Most Holy Trinity Catholic, co-chaired the luncheon meeting.

PCIC leaders presented some shocking voting statistics and then outlined their plans for voter outreach.  They’ve held 6 academies so far and have scheduled about 10-15 more.

The leadership team of PCIC is asking for all Pima residents to vote in favor of all 7 propositions because they:

• Promote the common good for all Pima County residents;
• Build our economy by creating jobs today and investing in our infrastructure for tomorrow;
• Have a minimal impact on our tax rate ($17/year) on an average home; and
• Leave Pima County better than we found it. (We sure can’t wait for the state or feds to do it!)

Contact PCIC if you’d like a voting/bond civic academy at your congregation, club or association.
