Cave Creek 2013 election


Mike Chutz came to Cave Creek in 2011 and yet he is driving a program to replace one of the finest councils we are fortunate to have. He has recruited the bottom of the barrel locally to replace the team who has stabilized the town during a very rough period.

And yet we cannot find evidence Chutz is even registered to vote in Cave Creek elections since he decided to remain a Sewickly, Penn. voter. In that respect, and being a perennial against all that is good, he resembles his political cohort, Anna Marsolo.

Out-of-town interest, out-of-town money

What did Cave Creek do to deserve all this attention from nonresidents?

The February 13 Scottsdale Republic reminded me of the significant out-of-town influence being dumped on Cave Creek residents for the upcoming town council election. The Republic has, among other things, a full page paid advertisement from Mike “Pittsburgh” Chutz tearing into Don Sorchych and tearing down the town (shades of Terry Zerkle), complete with his list of dramatic ‘old news’ questions and a letter from Ms. Anna Marsolo, a county resident all too willing to tell Cave Creek how to manage its affairs. Then we have Adam “Scottsdale” Trenk, the apparent leader of slate of special interest candidates and let us not forget Carefree’s own Jim Pierce. Let’s look a little closer.
