Working to get off the streets

BY OCTAVIO SERRANO

Victor Quintero and Melissa Cooper have been living in their car with their dog, Blue, for the past four years. Through the Glendale Works program, they have earned enough to stay in hotels a few nights per week.

At last January’s Point-in-Time Homeless Count, an annual street and shelter count in Maricopa County, volunteers counted 194 unsheltered people in Glendale — nearly five times the 44 unsheltered people counted in 2016.

The 2020 count will take place Tuesday, Jan. 28.

A Glendale couple who have been living in a car with their dog may not be counted this year, thanks to a program that has helped them get back to work.

ing day labor for people in need.

“They (Glendale Works) were just a blessing,” Quintero said. “There were days we didn’t find enough scrap metal to

even have gas to move and they helped us with daily pay, they helped us make sure we were able to eat.”

Glendale Works is an integrated workforce development program aimed at reducing homelessness in Glendale by providing qualified individuals with work. It was developed by Phoenix Rescue Mission with help from the city and launched Nov. 2018.

During its first year, Glendale Works interacted with more than 250 panhandlers and homeless individuals with its services, said Nathan Smith, Phoenix Rescue Mission director of community engagement.

Trial nears for accused elementary teacher

BY TOM SCANLON

Glendale Star Managing Editor

Court records show Ricky Ordway, the fifth-grade teacher accused of two dozen acts of sexual abuse and molestation, was investigated by Sun Valley Elementary School six months before he was arrested.

Ordway, 44, is scheduled for trial April 16. The final case conference is scheduled for Tuesday, Jan. 28.

Since his May 14 arrest, Ordway has maintained he is innocent of all charges against him.

The Glendale

Nearly all of the alleged crimes took place in Ordway’s classroom at Sun Valley Elementary School. The school, near Northern Avenue and U.S. 101, is in Peoria not far from Glendale. (Students from both cities attend the school.)

Most of the allegations against Ordway took place in the fall of 2018. Four of the alleged crimes took place between January and May, after what the prosecution called a December “mini-investigation” of Ordway.

Josephine Hallam, Ordway’s attorney,

filed a Nov. 26 petition asking the court to dismiss the case. Hallam claimed prosecutors violated Ordway’s rights by “introducing inaccurate and incomplete statements to the grand jurors ... withholding exculpatory evidence ... (and) asking over 100 leading questions.”

Hallam said school staff and the principal heard “rumors” of Ordway acting inappropriately with students in December 2018.

It was able to place over 40 people in a solution, such as a recovery program or permanent housing.

One was Quintero.

Quintero, 32, was born in Mexico but moved to the U.S. when he was 3 and to the Valley when he was 16. He attended Alhambra High School in Phoenix for two years.

Because he was born in Mexico, Quintero needs a work permit which must be renewed every two years.

Roughly five years ago, Quintero was working at a retirement community in Scottsdale when he lost his work permit because he couldn’t afford its renewal.

“When I lost my work permit, everything went downhill,” Quintero said.

“She (Cooper) has health issues, so she can’t work, and we became homeless after I lost my work permit.”

Quintero said Cooper, 34, his fiancée, has struggled with heart attacks since she was 24 and has been battling breast cancer for seven years. With nowhere to go and not enough money to afford their own place, they took to the

Quintero said he would do odd jobs here and there to make enough cash

and feed his dog who is the top priority of the family.

“We would pick up scrap metal cans, bottles and any odd jobs I could do,” Quintero said. “We would pick up stuff online and resell it.”

He said there were many days of stress and not knowing where their next meal would come from, but they would try to enjoy themselves as much as possible.

“We would go to the park and play with our puppy,” Quintero said.

“Whenever we were lucky enough to get enough money, we’d go to Dave and Buster’s and play a few games.”

One of the days Cooper and Quintero were at the park, they met a couple who told them about Glendale Works. Since then, their life has been improving and they’re looking to get their own place within the next month.

Glendale Works helped Quintero pay $500 for his work permit, find him work and even got him shoes for his first day of work.

“If it wasn’t for Glendale works, there is no way we would have come up with the $500 for my work permit,” Quintero said. “We’re slowly but surely getting back to where we need to be.”

Quintero now works full-time in a maintenance position at a company in Phoenix named Bella Fresh. He just

January 23, 2020 earned a raise.

Smith said Glendale Works finds jobs for people in need through the City’s Parks and Recreation Department who gives them a list of possible jobs. People who go through the program often work as part of a cleanup crew for the contractors the city hires.

They normally get paid $60 per day, which is minimum wage, are given lunch and are picked up from certain locations.

“Every day, we pick up people at First United Methodist Church right in the heart of downtown Glendale,” Smith said. “We haven’t even had to go out any real recruiting. We have a waiting list almost every day.”

Phoenix Rescue Mission travels out to the community and hands out cards on best ways to contact them for day labor, Smith said.

Smith said the mission has to leave people behind as it is not able to take everyone with it, however, they do try to provide labor to as many as possible.

But Glendale Works strives for more than just providing day labor. Smith said the spirit of the program lies in engaging with people who are homeless and providing them with tools to help them get themselves out of their situation and into a more stable place.

Smith said he really finds it powerful seeing the reactions of people Glendale Works can help.

“The reactions are really neat because a lot of people talk about how they’ll have a renewed sense of dignity from just having the opportunity to do this work, how they didn’t even know they could work like this before and maybe it’s time for them to seek more stable employment,” Smith said.

Although Quintero is looking at greener pastures, he still has challenges to overcome. He said he is struggling to find a place where he can afford the initial deposit which can be as high as $1,500, in addition to the rent.

He is able to afford a room at a hotel for a few nights but then he’s back to living in his car.

“We want people to know things are hard but to stay positive and keep moving and there are good people out there,” Quintero said.

Girl receives new kidney from mom

BY OCTAVIO SERRANO Glendale Star Staff Writer

Carly Campbell has always dreamed of being recruited for volleyball, but her medical condition may get in the way.

“I’ve always wanted to get recruited for volleyball, but there’s always an ‘if’ because of this kidney transplant I’m having,” Carly said.

Carly, 15, suffers from chronic kidney disease due to kidney necrosis, but her condition doesn’t keep her from being a vibrant teenager. She smiled with her friends while they washed cars for a fundraiser.

Carly was scheduled for a kidney transplant Tuesday, Jan. 21. Her mother, Tammy, is the donor. To raise funds for medical expenses, the Campbell family had a fundraising car wash Saturday, Jan. 18, near 67th Avenue and Thunderbird Road.

Glendale Charities sponsored her and had fire and police vehicles on site for people to enjoy Tammy, who is a registered nurse at Banner Thunderbird Hospital, said Carly has struggled with her condition since birth.

At birth, Carly had kidney problems.

“She lost a lot of blood at birth and her kidneys were without blood for lots of time,” Tammy said. “After 15 years, it’s finally time to go forward with the transplant.”

Despite her condition, Tammy said Carly has led a normal life who looks like a healthy teenager. But she does struggle, and Tammy wants her life to improve.

“Hopefully she’ll feel much stronger and better,” Tammy said. “She’s really done well throughout her life but I’m hoping once she gets a good kidney she’ll feel stronger and have more energy.”

The family has a target goal of $70,000 and has raised $22,000, according to the donation website. The money will go toward lifelong medical expenses, Tammy said.

Tammy said she is nervous about the surgery, but she is happy to donate her daughter her kidney. The procedure will take two hours for Tammy and four hours for Carly. Carly’s recovery

should take roughly six weeks.

Paul Campbell, Carly’s dad, describes her as a “typical teenager.”

“She loves playing volleyball and she wasn’t able to play during the fall because of everything going on with

her kidneys, so she was pretty bummed out about that,” Paul said. “But hopefully we can get her back to health and she’ll be able to start playing again.”

Paul Campbell has been a Glendale Police officer for over 20 years. He SEE KIDNEY PAGE 6

Valley Elementary School, Stephen Balliet, disclosed there were previous rumors Mr. Ordway was investigated by the school in Dec. 2018. These allegations (came) about after a student was overheard by an aide telling another student Mr. Ordway had sex with students,” Hallam said, in her Nov. 26 petition. “(Two) students were interviewed by the principal and told the principal they had never been touched by Mr. Ordway nor had they seen anyone else be touched by Mr. Ordway. This investigation led to Mr. Balliet speaking to approximately 15 students. Each of those students claimed to have heard it from someone else but none of them were able to give an account of a true allegation.

“At this time Mr. Balliet addressed all fourth (and) fifth grade classes and instructed them to come forward and speak to him if they had a real concern about Mr. Ordway. No one came forward to speak to Mr. Balliet or make any disclosures about Mr. Ordway.”

One Surprising Cause of Low Back Pain

By Leading Physical Therapist, Nick Hunter

You might be aware of the many ‘tips and tricks’ that are out there about ‘how to relieve back pain’ but, have you ever heard that drinking more water actually addresses this?

Dehydration can cause back pain. It can even contribute to why your pain stays around longer than it needs to.

Water affects every organ and cell in your body but it also plays an enormous role in the health of your back and spine.

Eventually, lack of water in your body can cause pain, swelling or even greater problems over time.

Perhaps you are like me and have trouble drinking enough water. In that case, try this tip: Before I go to sleep, I place a glass of water on my bedside table. When I wake up in the morning, the first thing I see is that glass of water and I drink it straight away. Give it a try!

You might find that this simple trick is all you need to start increasing your daily water intake.

Are you willing to continue to cope with back pain that stops you from making memories with your loved-ones or participating in your favorite activities? OR… Will you choose to take action NOW and start living your life free of pain?

police, the principal of the elementary school conducted his own investigation brought on by some rumors he had heard about the defendant acting inappropriately with some of the children,” Minicozzi said.

“The principal spoke with several students in the defendant’s class but ultimately, no one disclosed anything specific. The defendant believes this information should have been shared with the grand jury. However, nothing about this ‘mini-investigation’ conducted by the principal, clearly negates the defendant’s guilt or would deter the grand jury from finding probable cause in this case.”

The prosecutor noted the interviews by the principal, who was “untrained in forensic interviewing techniques,” should not be held to the same scrutiny as police interviews.

“Additionally, many of the incidents, in this case, occurred after the principal talked to some of the students,” Minicozzi wrote.

Danielle Airey, a spokeswoman for PUSD, said the district would not answer questions about the Ordway “rumors” in Dec. 2018. She would not comment on the school’s investigation as described by the prosecution.

“The specifics are part of the investigation and we have been in contact with police throughout the process,” Airey said.

The Ordway case timeline, as provided by the Peoria Police Department in a press release that was posted on Facebook: “On May 7, 2019, at approximately 5:16 p.m. the principal of Sun Valley Elementary school notified the Peoria Police Department of a teacher allegedly inappropriately touching an 11-year-old female student.

“Peoria Police Special Victims detectives began an investigation and discovered the teacher, Ricky Ordway, was alleged to have inappropriately touched three fifth grade female students at the school.

“On May 14, 2019, at about 10:30 a.m., detectives arrested Ricky Ordway ... without incident at the Peoria Police Unified School District Office, and booked him into 4th Avenue Jail.”

Additional charges were brought against Ordway after the Peoria Police Department interviewed more students.

Airey confirmed PUSD placed Ordway on administrative leave May 7.

She said Ordway continues to be on paid leave.

On May 14, the morning Ordway was arrested, PUSD sent Sun Valley Elementary School parents an email acknowledging his arrest and the accusations.

“A student and parent brought allegations of inappropriate conduct to our attention and we immediately notified the Peoria Police Department,” the email said. “We also notified our fifthgrade families Mr. Ordway would not be returning to class due to a personnel matter.”

Maricopa County Superior Court Judge Kathleen Mead denied Hallam’s petition to dismiss charges Jan. 3. Mead scheduled a case conference for Jan. 28 and a “firm trial date” of April 16.

Mark Rodrigues, a detective with the special victims unit of the Peoria Police Department, gave grand jury testimony Aug. 13.

Rodrigues said multiple girls in Ordway’s class stated the teacher called them to his desk and molested them during class.

Rodrigues stated Ordway denied touching the girls inappropriately. He did acknowledge he called girls to his desk to assist them. The detective said Ordway confirmed he never called boys to his desk.

According to an Oct. 2017 Facebook post by Sun Valley Elementary School, “Mr. Ordway, as many of you know, worked in our nurse’s office while he was working on his teaching degree, this is his first year as a teacher.”

League of Women Voters to discuss electoral college

BY GLENDALE STAR STAFF Judy Moor, president of the League of Women Voters of Northwest Maricopa County will discuss the electoral college and whether it should be abolished at 6 p.m. Monday, Jan. 27.

The League of Women Voters meeting will be at the Universalist Unitarian Church, 17540 Avenue of the Arts, Surprise. The meeting is open to the public.

“The electoral college has elected a president who did not win the national popular vote in four of the last 56

presidential elections. Two of these elections occurred in the first two decades of the 21st Century,” noted Moor.

The League of Women Voters is a nonpartisan political organization that encourages informed and active participation in government, works to increase understanding of major public policy issues and influences public policy through education and advocacy.

The League also welcomes men as members.

Gov. Ducey’s ‘State of the State,’ in West Valley

BY TOM SCANLON

Glendale Star Managing Editor

Two days after delivering his sixth State of the State speech to launch the legislative year, Gov. Doug Ducey gave a West Valley version.

He spoke before 500 at a Phoenix Raceway lunch event. The Avondale setting was appropriate, as Ducey described a West Valley economy ready and roaring like a race car.

Avondale Mayor Kenn Weise kicked off the event, telling the crowd at the raceway’s Roll Bar the West Valley “is a region where the mayors and city council members work together.” He acknowledged representatives from Goodyear, Buckeye and Glendale.

Jennifer Jessep, director of public relations for Glendale’s Swire Coca-Cola, was seated to Ducey’s left. Sintra Hoffman, president and CEO of event sponsor WESTMARC, was on Ducey’s right. After both introduced the second-term governor, re-elected by a wide margin in 2018, Ducey gave his 45-minute speech.

“Thanks so much for the warm welcome. It’s a little different from the welcome I get at the State Capitol,” Ducey cracked, after a standing ovation died down.

Most of Ducey’s speech was an echo of his official State of the State speech, though he added some local flourishes.

“This is the racetrack that will host NASCAR’s championship weekend this year,” Ducey said, referring to the November event at the Phoenix Raceway (formerly ISM Raceway before a recent name change).

And, he added, “Sintra you always do a great job setting the table.”

Ducey, a former businessman, focused on the state as a business.

“I’m proud to report: the state of our state is strong. And the best part is, it’s only getting better,” he said.

“Look at all that’s happening around us. Our crime rate is dropping, and school test scores are rising. Our credit rating is up, and our debt is way down.

Household incomes have hit a record high and our poverty rate has dropped faster than any other state in the nation.”.

“Avondale Elementary School District serves more than 5,000 West Valley students. Nearly 70% of them residing in low-income areas.

“In 2015, Sup. Betsy Hargrove didn’t like what she saw on the report card. So she rolled up her sleeves to turn things around.

“And did she deliver. By 2018, through a targeted strategy, the district had double-digit growth in Gov.

One applauding in agreement was Jessep, of Swire Coca-Cola.

Earlier, she noted Swire Coca-Cola, which employs 2,000, is in the midst of its third expansion in Glendale.

“This is a great place to build a business,” she said.

She said “55% of growth in Maricopa County will be right here in the West Valley.

“We have our workforce, very talented. We have disposable income that continues to rise.”

And, she said, the February opening of Desert Diamond West Valley Casino in Glendale “will be taking entertainment to the next level.”

CDAC soon to decide on requests for funding

BY OCTAVIO SERRANO Glendale Star Staff

The city of Glendale held a Community Development Advisory Committee meeting Wednesday, Jan. 8, where 26 agencies presented their plans and requests for projects. The agencies ranged from nonprofits focused on youth to organizations focusing on reducing the population of unsheltered homelessness.

Lisa Baker, who is on the advisory committee, said the estimated funding to be distributed is based on the previous fiscal year. The 2020-2021 entitlement is estimated to be $2,473,509.

Baker said $494, 701 goes toward the Community Revitalization Division. City of Glendale Housing receives $742,052. The Community Development Block Grant receives $865,480 for physical improvements. The Community Development Block Grant receives $371,026 for public services.

In addition, $194,273 is awarded to Emergency Solutions Grants, and

$477,095 is awarded to the Home Investment Partnerships Program, Baker said.

The City Council has set aside $126,000 of these funds for a new homelessness services program, Baker said. This leaves $246,000 to be awarded in block grants. The total requests for funding from the Jan. 8, presentations totals over $900,000.

The mayor and city council have also set aside $75,000 in Emergency Services Grant funds for the City Homelessness Program. The requests for funding in the ESG category total $214,040, Baker said.

Baker said each organization must go through the city’s application process, in which they are asked about their organization’s mission, its structure, funding, and additional background information.

The final public hearing for the remaining applications took place Jan. 15. The CDAC meets at 6:30 p.m.

Thursday, Jan. 23, to give its recommendations.

The CDAC recommendations will be presented to the mayor and city council at a Feb. 25 workshop. After the presentation, Baker said the mayor and council will either send them back to CDAC for reconsideration or have them placed on a future voting meeting agenda. Council vote is required for funding.

day, July 20, to Thursday, July 23.

Gentles said the organization has been in partnership with Glendale for over 15 years, and it wants to help families who need assistance with expenses.

“As a result of our corporate funding and other funding we receive, we will support 160 students from Glendale going forward,” Gentles said. “It could go up as many as 300.”

The event helps roughly 5,000 students, Gentles said, all of which is supported by roughly 2,000 volunteers.

“Many families cannot afford to replenish school uniforms throughout the year, so that’s where we come in,” Gentles said. “Each child that benefits from our program receives approximately $350 worth of school clothing.”

With these numbers in mind, Gentles said about $1,500 goes to every family coming through the organization.

Gentles said families can use the extra money for other bills, such as gas. In addition, the organization provides kids with free dental screening as well as other dental treatments.

“I think what people know us for is a huge boost to self-esteem, which is really important as a child goes through school,” Gentles said. “We’re really about leveling the playing field for our kids, making sure they have the exact same things other kids have, so they can accomplish what they need to in school.”

Another organization that presented at the meeting was Angels on Patrol, which is a resource law enforcement in the valley can use to ensure the families they meet are safe.

Melinda Cadena, executive director

of Angels on Patrol, said the organization was founded in 2009 to be a direct source for on-duty police officers when they encounter barriers in the field.

She gave the example of a family who has encountered a dangerous perpetrator who got away and the cops are unable to find them.

“The family remains vulnerable as the suspect can return at any time and cause additional harm,” Cadena said.

Although emergency shelters can be an option, Cadena said they are often at capacity and unable to help. Angels on Patrol would pay for the hotel costs in a situation like this and help the family connect with the right resources, Cadena said.

“Our service not only helps families but also ensures police officers feel they have completed their duty to the force,” Cadena said.

Cadena said Angels on Patrol received 231 requests in 2019, and 31 came from Glendale. It was able to touch the lives of 86 Glendale residents, Cadena said. A number she wants to double.

“Not only can it be done, but it also needs to be,” Cadena said. “We want to ensure every Glendale police officer knows they have access to a direct source just for them.”

“Our unique mission not only stabilizes and empowers families in crisis, but it helps bridge a gap, ensuring there is a strong positive relationship between police and community,” Cadena said.

Another nonprofit organization was Phoenix Rescue Mission’s program Glendale Works, which focuses on reducing the number of unsheltered homelessness in the Valley.

Nathan Smith, Phoenix Rescue Mission director of community engagement, said, “The problem of unsheltered homelessness all across Maricopa County, all across the city of Glendale, continues. If you look at the numbers going back to 2014 up until the most recent count, the number for unsheltered population has continued to rise.”

Glendale Works helps the homeless by providing labor, Smith said. It goes out to the streets and identifies individuals who need a place to live and offers them a job.

Lesko selected to help defend Trump

BY GLENDALE STAR STAFF Rep. Debbie Lesko, R-Arizona, was named Monday as one of eight members of Congress who will serve on President Donald Trump’s impeachment defense team.

“I am honored to be named to President Trump’s impeachment team,” said Lesko, who represents District 8.

“Democrats are playing politics and they are playing dirty. I will continue to fight against this corrupt and unfair process and look forward to assisting President Trump as a member of his impeachment team.”

The White House announced Monday, Jan. 20, President Trump appointed Lesko and seven other Republican House members to advise his impeachment defense team ahead of the Senate trial set to begin this week.

The others appointed: Reps. Jim

Jordan, John Ratcliffe, Mike Johnson, Mark Meadows, Lee Zeldin, Elise Stefanik and Doug Collins.

“Throughout this process, these members of Congress have provided guidance to the White House team, which was prohibited from participating in the proceedings concocted by Democrats in the House of Representatives,” said a White House statement.

“The President looks forward to their continued participation and is confident that the members will help expeditiously end this brazen political vendetta on behalf of the American people.”

Last month, a Trump tweet called Lesko “a great American.” She was an aggressive defender of Trump during the House impeachment process. She said Democrats were “tearing this country apart.”

Elizabeth Warren’s student debt plan not good enough

BY THOMAS L. KNAPP Glendale Star Guest Writer

On Jan. 14, Sen. Elizabeth Warren released a “Plan to Cancel Student Debt on Day One of My Presidency.”

Warren would use the US Department of Education’s “broad legal authority” to cancel up to $50,000 of debt on behalf of up to 42 million borrowers.

Warren’s plan makes a lot of sense politically. She’s struggling for traction in the Democratic Party’s presidential nomination race. Big promises to millions of borrowers and their families could make a big difference in the Iowa caucuses and New Hampshire primary.

As for the larger problem of college costs, Warren’s overall approach is a mix of some bad things ($150 billion in taxpayer money for Pell Grants and “minority-serving institutions,” plus the costs of “universal tuition-free public college”) and one and a half

good things above and beyond her debt forgiveness plan.

The one good thing: She proposes to eliminate the “undue hardship” standard for discharging student debt in bankruptcy.

The half a good thing: She wants to ban federal funding for for-profit colleges.

That second thing would be a full good thing, instead of just half a good thing, if Warren removed the word “for-profit.”

There’s a strong historical correlation between easy availability of stu-

DUFFY’S OPINION – brianduffycartoons.com

dent loans and soaring costs of a college or university education. It’s basic economics. By artificially lowering loan risk to direct money at a good or service, government increases debt and drives up the price of that good or service.

Under the present system, naive 18-year-olds are swindled into borrowing more and more insane amounts of money to spend on less and less valuable college degrees. Then when they find themselves barely scraping by under the burden of repaying those loans, they can’t resort to bankruptcy.

Think about that for a minute.

I’m 53. If I go out tomorrow and take out a subprime mortgage on a home and a loan for a $40,000 car, then max out a bunch of credit cards, I can substantially get out from under that debt in bankruptcy court.

The 18-year-old who trusted others when they said “you need to go to college and here’s how” doesn’t have the same recourse as spendthrift Tom, who was old enough to know better and then some, but partied hearty anyway.

That’s not right.

No, everyone does not need to “go to college.” That’s becoming more true than ever as inexpensive distance learning options and non-school certifications in various fields prepare Americans for many jobs better than seeking a degree does. We need to stop lying to America’s kids about both the costs and the benefits of a college education.

I’m all for Warren’s idea of “forgiving” a bunch of the existing debt. But any kind of lasting solution calls for less, not more, government involvement in general.

The Libertarian Party’s platform offers a better direction: “We support ending federal student loan guarantees and special treatment of student loan debt in bankruptcy proceedings.

Education is best provided by the free market, achieving greater quality, accountability and efficiency with more diversity of choice.”

It’s a bit difficult to figure out what’s going on at Glen Lakes Golf Course (“I’m Not Developed Yet!”).

Glendale City Council approved the $6.5 million sale of the 43-acre golf course to Towne Development Dec. 10.

The sale agreement showed up on last week’s city council Jan. 14 agenda. Just before the meeting, it was pulled from the agenda.

Thursday, I asked the city: Has the agreement been signed?

The answer: “It has not been signed but is working through the process. The city expects to sign the paperwork in the next

So what happened at the Planning Commission meet-

Big ribbon-cutting month for the Glendale Chamber of Commerce.

First, at 4 p.m. Wednesday, Jan. 29, the Chamber celebrates the “grand reopening” of the Holiday Inn Express, 9310 W. Cabela Drive.

Next, at 11 a.m. Friday, Jan. 31, a ribbon-cutting takes place at a new Mountain America Credit Union branch, at 5910 W. Northern Avenue.

If you read last week’s Glendale Star, you know the very-hot Mark Anthony Brewing, makers of trend-setting White Claw seltzer, is coming to Glendale.

How did the city land a $250 million production facility in west Glendale, near the Loop 303?

Speed, said City Manager Kevin Phelps. He said the company has “millions of cases of backorders” to fill, and Glendale agreed to do what it can to streamline construction so White Claw can be pouring by summer in Glendale.

But wait, there’s more.

According to the development agreement, Mark Anthony will save hun-

dreds of thousands of dollars in fees: “The city waives, and project applicant will not pay any city fees related to the design and construction of or the issuance of a certificate of occupancy for the project, including, permits, reviews (which shall only be charged at ordinary rates and without premium even if performed after hours or on weekends), inspections (including expedited and after hours weekends), code modification formal interpretations, record retention, planning, barricade, and other fees … in an amount not to exceed $750,000.”

There could be even more savings, as suggested by another section emphasizing the speediness of construction: “The city will provide a customized project development timeline including, design review charrette and accelerated plan review, as well as an option to phase reviews, permits and inspections at no additional cost. The city will use reasonable best efforts to perform and complete all reviews as soon as possible, but in no event later than 15 business days after any such matter is submitted for review by the city.”

Glendale also guarantees in writing to help with an “impasse” situations: “The city acknowledges and agrees it is desirable for project applicants to proceed rapidly with the implementation of this agreement and the development of the property ... if at any time the project applicant believes an impasse has been reached with the city staff on any issue affecting the property which is not an event of default, project applicant shall have the right to immediately appeal to the city representative for an expedited decision.”

John Sacksteder, president and CEO of Mark Anthony Brewing, signed the agreement Dec. 30. In a press release, he emphasized Glendale’s “support required for our rapid build-out and aggressive timeline.”

Sunrise Mountain hoops off to a scorching start

BY GRIFFIN FABITS

Glendale Star Contributing Writer

They haven’t hosted a state tournament game since 2006 and haven’t won a playoff game since 2016, but the Sunrise Mountain High School boys’ basketball team is hoping for both in 2020.

As of Jan. 21, the Mustangs were 14-4, sitting atop the standings in the rigorous 5A Northwest Conference. Coach Gary Rath called it “the toughest region in the state,” with five playoff-hopeful teams.

But the Mustangs have aced their first few tests against solid teams this season.

They toppled conference-rival Ironwood in a 78-71 win on Dec.19. They traveled to Horizon and departed with a thrilling 70-68 victory on Dec. 6. And they battled back and forth with Liberty before pulling away with an 80-77 win on Dec. 3.

“Our guys really want a shot to play for the region championship,” Rath said. “I think our guys know our region is tough and we have to come ready to play every night. I don’t think [being complacent] will be a problem.”

On the Mustangs’ remaining schedule are meetings with each of their conference rivals in Centennial, Sunnyslope and Apollo. Plus, they’ll meet Ironwood once more in late January.

Five of the six teams in the 5A Northwest Conference, including Sunrise Mountain, are over .500.

ership and savvy veterans. After graduating just three seniors last year, they have seven this season.

Among them is star center in Tanner Mayer. Mayer, at 6-foot-5 and 215 pounds, is the team’s leading scorer, averaging a double-double with 19.6 points per game and 10.5 rebounds per game.

He’s been a varsity regular since his sophomore year and has steadily improved since. Mayer averaged 10 points per game his sophomore campaign, 15 his junior year and now 20 this season.

“Last year, he added a perimeter jumper to his game where he could take a guy out inside or outside,” Rath said. “From last year to now, he’s added some more ball-handling, so he’s stronger with the

ball. He can guard guards better than he could last year.”

Rath said Mayer’s “will to win” is contagious, and a driving force to getting the Mustangs back to the postseason.

“He’s become a real leader for us on and off the court. He cannot stand to lose.

It’s rubbed off and our guys are getting the attitude like, ‘This winning stuff is fun’. It’s enjoyable.”

Rath said he’s been most impressed with his team’s ability to close out and win ball games in the way they’ve done so.

“Our seniors have a lot of experience those last two years playing varsity and just kind of learned how to win,” he said.

“Two years ago, we ended up 15-12 and

we lost two games I thought we should have won and cost us a chance at the state tournament. Last year, we kind of did the same thing – we had three or four games where we could have won. We had our chances to win and close the door and we didn’t and we lost them.

“This year, I think our guys just realized, we have to take advantage of it and we’re not making as many mistakes.

It’s helping us with finishing those tight games.”

Rath has a deep bench with veterans and younger players.

“We’ve got 13 guys right now, and any one of them can play,” said Rath. “It’s really forcing us to play at a high level, because if you don’t, there’s someone else who can come in and play just as well as you.”

Sunrise Mountain has averaged just shy of 75 points per game. They shoot a collective 48 percent.

At this pace, the Mustangs could host a playoff game in February.

“We are excited. We like the position we’ve put ourselves in,” said Rath. “That was one of our goals at the beginning of the year, we wanted to play for a region championship, and then, one of our other goals is to host a state tournament game.

“Those are the things where, if we keep winning and doing the things we think we’re capable of, we could have a state home game.”

Comedian Steve Hofstetter to perform in Glendale

Comedian Steve Hofstetter’s comedy tour has him traveling around the world with no more than a few days’ break in between shows from January until August.

His show Wednesday, Jan. 29 at Stir Crazy Comedy Club in Glendale is one stop on a tour featuring shows in Australia, New Zealand, England and several states.

While others might struggle with the travel and new venues on a regular basis, he wouldn’t change his schedule for anything.

SUDOKU TIME

The idea of Go Figure is to arrive at the figures given at the bottom and right-hand columns of the diagram by following the arithmetic signs in the order they are given (that is, from left to right and top to bottom). Use only the numbers below the diagram to complete its blank squares and use each of the nine numbers only once.

Each numbered row contains two clues and two answers. The two answers differ from each other by only one letter, which has already been inserted. For example, if you exchange the A from MASTER for an I, you get MISTER. Do not change the order of the letters.

It’s my party and I’ll judge (or love) if I want to I love parties! Let’s journey together to a famous party that happened years ago. Come on in. Your invitation is in Luke 7:36-50 in the Scriptures. Let me set the stage for you. Two participants in this party are the center of attention. They are opposites and both very needy.

One participant is a high-performance religious leader. He’s respected, revered and admired by his followers.

Meet Simon the Pharisee, everyone’s favorite teacher and the host of the party. The party tonight is for his guest of honor, Jesus of Nazareth. There’s a buzz in the place.

But tonight, the other participant crashes Simon’s party. She was not

invited. She is a prostitute. She bursts into the party and falls on the floor at the feet of Jesus. She is sobbing. She washes Jesus’ feet with her hair. She anoints his feet with expensive perfume. She breaks every protocol of the day to find what she really needed, real forgiveness.

The crowd is hushed in shock. A prostitute in the house of Simon? May

Imagine what Simon is thinking.

“Just look at her, groveling at Jesus’ feet, kissing them nonetheless. If Jesus was who He says He is, He would have nothing to do with this woman.”

Essentially, Simon was thinking, “It’s my party and I’ll judge if I want to, you would have judged to if it happened to you.”

Why did Simon and the prostitute respond to Jesus so differently? Simon was light years ahead of the prostitute in stature and education. Yet she was light years ahead of Simon in one very important area. She knew she desperately needed God’s love and forgiveness. Simon didn’t. The depth of her need determined the depth of her response to Jesus. The depth of Simon’s need determined the depth of his response to Jesus.

That’s the problem with the law. It puffs you up. It makes you feel holier than others in your own eyes. Often, the law makes churches and people religious.

Meanwhile, Jesus uses the occasion as a teachable moment for Simon… and us. “Simon, I tell you, her sinsand they are many-have been forgiven.

So, she has shown me much love. But a person who is forgiven little shows little love.”

When we realize our need for forgiveness is great and receive it, our response will be love, much love. If we realize our need for forgiveness little, our love for Jesus and others will be little. Simon felt he was beyond his need for forgiveness, causing him to love little. Simon types don’t comprehend that every sinner has a future; every saint has a past.

Jesus said that in the last days, people’s love would grow cold. Why? Because few people these days, whether churched or unchurched, comprehend their need for forgiveness. As a result, many become judgmental of others, loving very few and then only conditionally and hesitantly.

Christians, if we understood our need for forgiveness, before and after our salvation, it would silence the Simon in us who often is us. It might even open hearts, open minds and open the doors of others outside the church to Christ, who may consider Christians too judgmental.

Did you notice how Jesus changed the climate of the party to; “It’s my party and I’ll love if I want to?”

Sex education controversy continues to churn

BY HOWARD FISCHER Capitol Media Services

Senate President Karen Fann blocked consideration -- possibly permanently -- on a bill to put new restrictions on sex education in public schools.

Karen Fann said Jan. 14, the proposal introduced by Sen. Sylvia Allen, R-Snowflake, clearly needs work. The Prescott Republican noted even Allen conceded SB 1082 is not in the form she wants.

But Fann also said the sweeping proposal to both limit the grades where sex ed could be taught and provide more parental oversight is quite controversial.

The Senate president added it may make it inappropriate for discussion at this time.

Fann said she and other legislative leaders are hoping for a quick session.

Part of the pressure on lawmakers is the primary election was moved up three weeks, to Aug. 4. And if legislators are in session until May or June it leaves less time for them to campaign.

And Fann said it may be necessary to

prevent lengthy debate on divisive issues, like this one.

The move drew an angry reaction from Allen who, at a rally with supporters, essentially accused Senate leaders of cowardice in choosing to avoid controversial issues in an election year.

“Down here at this Capitol, fear drives everything?’’ she said.

“Is government formed to protect you in these inalienable rights?’’ Allen told a rally of supporters. “Or are we here just to say to you, ‘Oh, no, we can’t do this particular issue because it’s an election year’?’’

Despite Fann’s decision, Allen last week allowed parents unhappy with the current sex education laws to testify at the Senate Education Committee which she chairs about why they are unhappy with sex ed programs in their schools. And she hopes to pressure Fann to allow her to resurrect the measure later this session.

But it wasn’t just supporters of SB 1082 at the Capitol.

Another group staged their own rally to not just oppose Allen’s measure but lend their support to SB 1120 sponsored

by Sen. ictoria Steele, D-Tucson which actually would move sex education programs in Arizona in the opposite direction. But this bill, too, likely is dead.

Teaching sex ed is optional with school districts, allowing them to provide what is supposed to be age-appropriate instruction for students in kindergarten through 12th grade. Only students whose parents have opted in can participate.

Allen’s measure would bar sex ed before the seventh grade. It also would tighten up requirements for school boards to review the proposed course and provide time for parents to see what materials would be used and set up a system for parental complaints.

And it also would spell out for the first time instruction in AIDS and HIV could be taught only with parental permission, and only at upper-grades.

“Do we want to have our small, inno-

cent little children sexually active?’’ Allen asked supporters rallying for her bill at the Capitol.

She said her bill became “tainted’’ — and controversial— because of verbiage some believed would have barred teachers from ever mentioning homosexuality.

Allen said it was not the intent and even had prepared language to remove this section.

“I was acting and so were all the parents working with me, to protect parent’s rights and our children,’’ she said. “And we should have had the opportunity to debate the bill’’ on its merits and not on the perception of what it did.

By that point, though, it was too late.

“People are backing away (saying) ‘Oh, we can’t support something where the perception is anti-gay,’” Allen said.

“And so there was no choice but to hold this bill.’’

And the senator suggested schools, in teaching sex ed—and other social and

questions: “When will we ever use this?” and “Why do I need to know this?”

“We’re about opening doors for your students,” said Hammer to the parents filling out the school’s auditorium.

“Whatever they want to do after high school and in their careers, we want to make sure those doors are open to get there.”

David Serafin, an assistant principal, brought his own kids on stage. He related to the parents in the audience, as his middle son of three children is contemplating where to attend high school, just like many of the students.

Serafin, who has been with the school since 2004, shook plenty of hands, answered even more questions and got to know the students.

“This is the best night of the year, just to see the new faces and the excitement.

From this night on, they’re no longer an eighth-grader. They’re part of the Cactus tradition,” he said.

Another parent in attendance was Dan Steffen, who said Cactus has allowed his children to succeed on their own terms as individuals.

One son came into the school reading far below grade level, and through help from teachers found his reading ability rising meteorically in a short time. His other son took mostly honors classes, and now attends Grand Canyon University in Phoenix.

“Cactus was able to challenge both of them, and help both as students in a unique way,” Steffen said.

Among the most exciting advancements in the upcoming school year are three new courses: robotics and automation, crime scene investigation, and

cybersecurity. All of which Hammer believes prepare students adequately for careers and give them another learning outlet.

Whatever the kids set to attend their new school hope to do, both while in classes and after, Hammer wants them to get involved right away. With wide eyes and open to information, the students have four potentially amazing years to come, she said, as long as they start to take advantage of their opportunities right away.

“We’re trying to get rid of the mindset in freshmen they’re just doing time, they’re jumping through hoops to just get their diploma,” Hammer said. “It’s really about how they want to affect the world around them starting on the first day they step on campus. We are the stepping stone to get you there.”

Students check out Cactus at Future Freshman Night

BY ERIC NEWMAN

Glendale Star Staff Writer

The marching band blasted the school fight song and other classics while the cheerleaders danced along. Eighthgrade students and their families walked through the same giant inflatable cobra the football players do on game day.

Clubs, sports programs and other organizations set up tables to entice potential members.

But, the first part of the Cactus High School Future Freshman Night – an all-encompassing event to show young kids and their families exactly what becoming a Cobra would mean for their academic careers – on the school’s Glendale campus on Jan. 13, began with a set of short speeches.

Principal Kristi Hammer told the crowd the school wants to eliminate two

moral issues— were not being neutral.

“They should not be taking a perspective of the socialist, Marxist radical points of views out here, or not even the more radical views that might be on the Right,’’ she said. “They must be respectful of our parents and what children are learning and being directed from in their home.’’

Fann, however, said her main concern was avoiding certain hot-button issues she feared could take away needed attention from the necessary business of the Legislature.

“We’re going to try and keep this session as quickly as possible with the least amount of friction and create a bipartisan atmosphere so we can get through this session with civility,’’ she said. And what it means, Fann said, is delaying —for as long as necessary —“those issues need a little more work.’’

This also likely means Steele’s proposal also will meet the same fate and not get a hearing.

Her measure not only preserves sex ed in all grades but makes it an opt-out situation, with students enrolled in the classes unless parents specifically ask they be ex-

cused. Steele defended the change.

“I don’t think it is all that controversial,’’ she said. “I think there is a small, vocal group of people who don’t want other people’s kids to have access to this safe, healthy, life-saving information.’’

Anyway, Steele said she believes children today need sex education from people who know how to teach it to keep them safe.

“This is a much more complicated world than when you and I were kids,’’ said Steele who is 63.

“Kids have questions,’’ she continued, questions most parents are not answering — or their kids are not asking them. “So if we don’t have teachers in the classroom telling them the facts, they’re going to get their questions answered on the internet, probably a porn site.’’

Steele’s measure would have added some new requirements to what would have to be taught in sex education classes, including discussing the perception students have of their bodies, emotions and behaviors and talk about “personal boundaries, consent and the right to privacy.’’
