Due to the high volume of calls from concerned gun owners, the City Council has agreed to hold a public hearing to address the lack of procedure under which the Apache Junction Police Chief operated when his staff destroyed over 1,200 firearms. The meeting will be held on:
Tuesday, November 7
7:00 p.m.
A.J. Municipal Court
300 East Superstition Blvd.
Apache Junction, AZ 85219
The Council will also take comments from the public at the meeting. Please take the time to write letters politely asking the Council to develop a policy on the disposal of confiscated firearms that does not include destruction. While the outpouring of support has resulted in the call for a public meeting, at this point, the most constructive approach would be respectfully providing Councilmembers with written suggestions.
Please direct all communications to Mayor Douglas Coleman, Vice-Mayor R.E. Eck, Councilmember Richard Dietz, Councilmember John Insalaco, Councilmember Joe Severs, Councilmember Kris Sippel, and Councilmember Dave Waldron at:
300 E. Superstition Boulevard,
Apache Junction, AZ 85219
