Developer has yet to apply for permits
The latest word from Chino Valley Town management is that the developer intending to build a raceway in close proximity to the Chino Valley Yavapai Community College center has yet to apply for various permits that will start the process going. It is thought that his fear of investing thousands of dollars in permits, etc. and having the College veto the project after the Town approves it is just too risky.
Recall the Governing Board Chair, without formal agendized approval from the Board, refused to allow Chino Valley Town management to make a presentation to it about the raceway. Also recall that the College has the power because of a 2002 agreement to veto at any time a raceway near the Center.
The Governing Board inaction has irritated, if not angered, a number of people in Chino Valley.
