Colorado City, Arizona, Retains Ability to its own Police Department

Colorado City, Arizona, is a stronghold for an offshoot of the Church of Latter Day Saints that still adheres to polygamy. On April 25, the Arizona House defeated SB 1433, which would have ended the ability of cities to have police departments if at least 50% of the police officers of that city have had their certificates revoked during the last eight years. See this story. The bill had passed the State Senate unanimously. It was an attempt to place law enforcement in Colorado City under the control of the Mohave County Sheriff.
