Board OKs incorporation of Marana by Vikki Porter, The Arizona Daily Star Marana became Pima County's fourth incorporated community yesterday when the Board of Supervisors accepted 231 signatures supporting the move to self-government. We're going to have the best little community in the country said incorporation leader Pat Garrett. At last, we can speak for ourselves. The 1565 of Marana, 22 miles northwest of Tucson, join Tucson, South Tucson, and Oro Valley as the county's incorporated areas. The supervisors, under state law, had no choice but to declare Marana incorporated after County Recorder Ida Mae Smith verified that more than two-thirds of Marana's 331 registered voters supported incorporation. Garrett said the supervisors will be asked to appoint a temporary town council
