Virgina Brunini is heading up a petition drive to send to State legislators to let the sentiment be known that Nevada County wants the mine to stay in public hands and remain as a State Park. During last night’s City Council meeting Miller also proposed that the council draft a resolution in support of  Empire Mine to be sent to the State Legislators.
