🌟 A Special Thank You to Allegiance! 🌟
The City of Globe would like to extend our sincere appreciation to Allegiance for their generous donation of time and effort this week! They dedicated two days to cleaning up Central Heights Cemetery (Monday and Tuesday) and Mountain Breeze Cemetery (Wednesday and Thursday), helping improve the beauty and cleanliness of our community. 🧹✨
This initiative is part of the Gila Proud Program, managed by the Southern Gila County Economic Development Corporation (SGCEDC), and with valuable support from Gila County, the City of Globe, CVRMC, Freeport McMoRan, the Town of Miami, Resolution Copper, and the Pinal Mountain Soil Program. Together, we are working to create a cleaner, more beautiful corridor for all to enjoy! 🌿💪

Summer is here and you may be thinking about what your child will do for meals while school is out.
The good news is that the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) will partner with Globe Unified School District Food Service to serve free meals through the Summer Food Service Program (SFSP).
It’s food that’s in, while school is out.
There are no income requirements, and any child age 18 and younger may come to eat!
Free meals, that meet Federal nutrition guidelines, are provided to all children at approved SFSP sites in areas with significant concentrations of low-income children by schools, private nonprofits and local or county government organizations.
Globe Foodservice will be distributing Grab ‘n Go bags at the City of Globe Community City Pool on Tuesday and Fridays between 2-3 pm on those days.
The first distribution date will be May 30, 2025 and will run through July 22, 2025.
Additionally, Summer Electronic Benefit Transfer Program (Summer-EBT/SUN Bucks) provides grocery-buying benefits to low-income families with school-aged children who lose access to free or reduced-price school meals when schools are closed for the summer. To see if your child is eligible for $120 and information on how to apply, please visit https://www.azed.gov/SUNBucks or call the SUN Bucks hotline at 833-648-4406.

From Arizona Department of Transportation;
Daytime lane restriction and closures scheduled on US 60 between Superior and Miami May 12-15
Detour in place during closures from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.
US 60 detour map
The Arizona Department of Transportation advises drivers to plan for the following restrictions for blasting operations as part of a bridge replacement project:
US 60 east of Superior, between mileposts 227-229, will be reduced to one lane with alternating east- and westbound travel from 6 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday, May 12. Flaggers and a pilot car will assist drivers through the work zone.
US 60 between Superior and Miami (mileposts 227-243) will be closed from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Tuesday, May 13, Wednesday, May 14, and Thursday, May 15.
Flagging operations will be in effect before and after the full closures.
US 60 between Miami and Magma Mine Road (mileposts 231-243) will remain open for local traffic only.
Detour: Eastbound US 60 drivers use southbound State Route 177 through Winkelman to northbound SR 77. Westbound US 60 drivers use southbound SR 77 through Winkelman to northbound SR 177. Due to the roughly 75-mile length of this detour, drivers may want to consider planning travel before 9 a.m. and after 2 p.m. The detour is estimated to add an additional hour for trips between Superior and Miami.


Fire Restrictions
Thursday, April 30, 2025
Residents of the City of Globe,
As of May 1, 2025, the Tonto National Forest entered Stage 2 fire restrictions. As required by City Code, the City of Globe will enter fire restrictions as well. We recognize that these restrictions can sometimes be confusing and we therefore wish to clarify activities that will be enforced or permitted within the City.
The following applies within the City of Globe:
• No open wood fires are currently permitted anywhere in the City of Globe
• All burn permits are suspended immediately
• Residents may use commercially available gas, pellet or charcoal grills
• When using Charcoal, residents should exercise caution to ensure the location of the grill is free from vegetation
• Residents may use constructed or commercially available fire pits that are fueled by either natural gas or propane as long as the area in use is free of natural vegetation that will burn.
• We encourage residents to keep a defensible space around their homes by clearing vegetation and debris away from structures. Therefore, there are no restrictions on the use of weed eaters, mowers or saws powered by gas. Caution should be exercised as these activities can ignite dead vegetation. No weed burners are permitted.
• Cutting and welding should be limited to areas without vegetation.
• No fireworks of any kind are permitted within the City unless provided by a commercially licensed pyrotechnics company which has obtained a city permit.
We appreciate the efforts of all the residents of the City of Globe to maintain their safety and the safety of their neighbors.
Gary Robinson
Fire Chief, City of Globe

🌟 Kudos to our Community Development Department! 🌟
Today, they went above and beyond by tackling an impactful task... removing old, battered signs from our roadways!
These signs, many from businesses not even in our community, were cluttering up our streets and taking away from the beauty of Globe.
With their efforts, our roads are looking cleaner, and our community is shining brighter.
It's those little actions that make a big difference.
Thank you, Community Development team, for doing your part to keep Globe looking its best! 👏🙌
