BERLIN â Brookfield Renewable Energy met with the planning board last week in a conceptual review of its proposed battery storage project.

The normally smooth process of selling bits and pieces of property after no taxes have been paid on it ran into a few bumps at the March 2 meeting of the Gila County Board of Supervisors.
The property is West Grace Lane, off North McLane Road in Payson, and the total lien amount on this parcel is $3,708. Cynthia and Andy Romance submitted a sealed bid for the property with the understanding they would be responsible for the roadâs maintenance as several other property owners use it. The bid submitted was $1,000.
One of the property owners is Roy Sandoval, Gila County superintendent of schools. Speaking as a property owner, not a county elected official, Sandoval told the supervisors it is a private road and he and several other property owners had paid about $2,200 a few years ago to have the road re-paved. The property owners paid for the original paving about 20 years ago, he said.
