CHEVELON CANYON LAKE — The remains of Mark Irby, the Chandler planning commissioner who abandoned his ATV near Forest Lakes in January, were found here last Saturday by four Phoenix residents who were fishing from the shoreline.

The medical examiner used dental records to positively identify the remains on Monday as Irby, who was part of a citizen commission that helped oversee development projects in Chandler.

The lake sits between Heber and Christopher Creek, about 22 miles north of State Route 260. Forest Lakes is an unincorporated enclave of cabins that sits in the same area.

The medical has not yet determined the cause of death. Check out the White Mountain Independent for the full story here.
