“Chino’s a great place. It’s a laid-back and country kind of town. It’s changed a lot since we moved here in ’82. It’s a little more populated, which is going to happen. You can’t stop that. I love Chino Valley and the friendly people who live here.” – Mayor Jack Miller
Chino Valley Police Building Groundbreaking
