Update

Thank you everyone, for continuing to sign and share our petition to stop demolition of our historic bandstand. We are at 445 signatures on the online petition. We continue to gather signatures on our paper petitions at various locations in Clarkdale. The Town Council Members have received a letter from Jim McPherson, President of the Arizona Preservation Foundation, urging them to reconsider their decision to demolish the bandstand. There has been an article this week in the Verde Independent online and more press will be coming out next week. There has been some movement by the town in that the issue of the bandstand has been added to the meeting agenda for the Historic Preservation Commission on 6/6. You can look up meeting information on the Clarkdale Town website and you can also attend meetings virtually via ZOOM if you’re unable to attend.
