The Town of Camp Verde decided last week not to pursue an ordinance recognizing civil unions.
With a 3-3 vote, the Town Council failed to pass the measure, which would have had the town’s staff look into developing an ordinance that would have recognized rights between committed couples, regardless of sex or gender. A tied vote fails for lack of a majority under the rules of order.
The vote makes Camp Verde the only municipality in the Verde Valley to fail to recognize civil unions.
