A lot of the Marana police officers participate in this event. Mayor Honea commented that he had called a summit on Friday and invited guests from the Health Center and MUSD, Pima Community College, Northwest Fire District, and the Marana Chamber of Commerce to talk about the financial status of the state and how all parties will be affected in the coming year. The idea was to eliminate redundancies and work together on programs and still provide services to the community. Several ideas were put forth, and he is very proud of the community that works together. Next year is probably going to be the worst financial year on record in Arizona.
