I have also called. This is a big deal. The river is ready barely running because of use and drought. This bill only serves the developers, not the resources. Unfortunately, money has power.

After reading the bill and articles, I agree with Lynn1130. G and I normally do not oppose development, but this bill rapes current groundwater management statues in place. Therefore, I have joined others on this item and sent an email to the Governors office asking him to veto this bill.

Ann is correct money talks. I am going to send an email to my rep and asked why he voted for this, but one of the big supporters of the sponsor is the Arizona Association of Realtors, who of course would benefit from a huge development.

Thanks Steve, money talks especially when it is in the pockets of the state representative from SE Arizona. It took a major effort by the wine growers in our state to stop high power lines from running right through prime wine growing country in SE Arizona.

There is no development in this state that does not require water and most all of that will be ground pumped water. That dries up streams and rivers. Lake Powell is now at about 2/3 or a little less than full pool and Mead is in danger of having to start limiting water use to California and Nevada in the next few years. If either of those happen California will lay claim to their water allotment and Arizona will be SOL. So Thanks for supporting this effort and I strongly suggest you read up and rethink future support of these large developments (like NW of Wickenburg. There goes the Hassayampa River)

Just a reminder to all HOC members: in order to be a member of the Heartland Owners Club, you must own a Heartland RV product. So when you no longer own a Heartland RV product your eligibility expires and your HOC membership naturally expires.

Your Forum registration does not expire as ownership of a Heartland RV is not a prerequisite for Forum registration. You may still access the Forum with your user name and password and keep up with all your friends. Who knows, maybe you will own another Heartland in the future.

I got an email from the governors office saying he vetoed he bills. So I think the results are what you wished. Anyway I hope that is the case.

Yes that is exactly what I was hoping for. Thanks to all who took the time to call and/or email. Consider that most all of the "rivers" and streams in Arizona used to flow and today one is left and that is the San Pedro. There is an on-going effort to give water back to the Santa Cruz and I hope that works but Mexico has polluted that one to the point that I am not sure that will work.

Not us but we are in Las Vegas picking up our new 2017 Bighorn 3160. We ordered it during the Vegas national rally. Just got it Friday. Had satellite installed today. Very happy so far. Just a couple of minor things to fix. Will not make rally since we have April reservations made a year ago.

Hey there AZ RV-ers! We are brand new to the RV world and just bought a Heartland Mallard M312. Barely picked it up, but we're looking to take advantage of Memorial Day weekend for our first venture. The only problem is...since the camper is 36 feet, we're not sure which areas (we prefer dry camping) would be best. We're in the Phoenix area, and would like to venture up North (close to Payson) for this first jaunt. Anyone have any ideas on a good area with roads that can accommodate the length and that are good for fishing/hiking? Thanks for all the help!
