Excerpt from Saddleback Mountain-Arizona Settlement Act of 1995: Hearing Before the Committee on Indian Affairs, United States Senate One Hundred Fourth Congress, First Session on S. 1341 The committee met, pursuant to notice, at 9:29 a.m. in room 485, Senate Russell Building, Hon. John McCain (chairman of the committee) presiding. Present: Senator McCain. Statement of Hon. John McCain, U.S. Senator from Arizona, Chairman, Committee on Indian Affairs The Chairman. I want to welcome everyone here this morning for this hearing on S. 1341, the Saddleback Mountain-Arizona Settlement Act of 1995. We will be receiving testimony from President Ivan Makil of the Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community; Mayor Herbert Drinkwater of the city of Scottsdale; and Terrance Virden, Acting Director of the Office of Trust Responsibility in the Bureau of Indian Affairs. I was pleased to join with Senator Kyl in introducing this legislation at the request of the Salt River Indian Community and the city of Scottsdale. The purpose of the bill is to ratify an agreement negotiated by the Indian community, the city and the RTC. The agreement settles a dispute over the future use of 701 acres of undeveloped land that includes Saddleback Mountain, a unique natural landmark of great significance both to the city and the Indian community. This settlement will enable the parties to realize their respective goals for the disputed property and will result in the dismissal of costly litigation. The settlement does not require any new authorization of expenditure of Federal funds; rather, the Resolution Trust Corporation and the taxpayers will realize $6.5 million from the sale of the property. I believe this settlement demonstrates vividly the value and benefit of seeking to settle disputes through negotiations, not litigation. President Makil and the Salt River Indian Community Council, Mayor Drinkwater and the Scottsdale City Council, along with their representatives and those of the RTC who worked to produce the Saddleback settlement deserve great credit for their enlightened leadership. I look forward to hearing their testimony. I would like to say again, in order to achieve something like this, it requires leadership. I look forward to hearing their testimony.
