Westgate hits capacity, expanding BY TOM SCANLON

Glendale Star Managing Editor

Westgate is officially tapped out, having reached its capacity. But wait — there’s more. Even though Westgate Entertainment District reached 100% occupancy for the first time since its 2006 opening, it doesn’t mean owner YAM Properties is finished growing the area. Dan Dahl, director of real estate for Scottsdale-based YAM Properties, said there is plenty more room to grow on 70 acres. “YAM Properties is continuing to expand the complex and working on developing shops along Glendale Avenue,” Dahl said. “We also have plans to build additional entertainment and residential options to support the growing community.”

when they hear the word Westgate, the site also has “luxury apartments” (the Lofts at Westgate) and office space. The additions of Crumbl Cookies, Wow Wow Hawaiian Lemonade and Caramba Mexican Food took Westgate to full occupancy, with 50 restaurants, retail and entertainment places. Recent new restaurants brought the Westgate Entertainment District to full This is pretty much capacity for the ﬁrst time.

Volunteers hit streets to count homeless BY OCTAVIO SERRANO Glendale Star Staff Writer

Over 60 volunteers gathered in the early, cold morning last week to help count the homeless in Glendale. Volunteers gathered at a city office at 5 a.m. Tuesday, Jan. 28, to be part of the “point-in-time count,” a yearly census of the homeless population. The volunteers were asked to interact with as many homeless individuals as possible, ask them questions and offer services. The volunteers gathered when the sun

The Glendale

was still down and nobody was out in the streets. It was a chilly morning at 48 degrees, but they quickly got to work. Volunteers were divided into groups and set out to cover the city. Last January, volunteers counted 194 unsheltered people in Glendale. That is nearly five times the 44 unsheltered people counted in 2016. In 2017, 57 unsheltered people were counted. The number of unsheltered spiked to 164 in 2018. Glendale’s rise in homeless reflects a countywide trend. In 2019, the number

of homeless people increased in Maricopa County for the sixth straight year, according to the Maricopa Association of Governments (MAG). The counts are submitted annually to the Department of Housing and Urban Development, which uses the information to allocate and prioritize funding for homeless programs.

Glendale man loses wheelchair, gains community BY KEVIN REAGAN

Glendale Star Staff Writer

Tommy Hambicki’s wheelchair was recently on a turbulent journey these last few weeks. It went missing from outside his Glendale home Jan. 14 – presumably stolen by a thief – and left the 35-year-old coach scrambling to find it. “I had no idea what to do,” recalled Hambicki, who was paralyzed below the waist in a 2003 car accident. Hambicki, the one-time basketball star at Gilbert High School, has certainly had a life filled with highs and lows – but losing his wheelchair felt like a new low. He filed police reports, called pawn shops and surveyed his neighbors – hoping something might lead to him finding his wheelchair. A Glendale neighbor’s security camera captured a man taking Hambicki’s wheelchair off his front porch in broad daylight. After watching this footage, Hambicki knew then he probably wasn’t getting his chair back and set out to get

a replacement. His chair was custom-made just for him and buying a new one would cost at least $6,000. Hambicki found out his insurance

policy doesn’t cover thefts, requiring him to pay entirely out-of-pocket for a new chair. The news didn’t really surprise Hambicki since his insurance often won’t pay for necessary medical supplies. “I don’t even get coverage for my catheters,” he said. “I have to pay to pee.” The new chair’s big price tag worried Hambicki’s family, so they turned to the community for help. Hambicki coaches youth basketball for Arizona Kings in Chandler and the families of his players started circulating his story. Within 48 hours, the family accumulated enough donations to pay for the new chair. Robin Lee, owner of Arizona Kings, said her players and their families adore Hambicki and instantly wanted to rally around his cause. “We’re really fortunate to have him part of our program,” Lee said, “He’s such an inspiration.” The story quickly grew beyond Chan-

dler’s basketball community, Lee added, and people who didn’t even know Hambicki were sending in donations. It warmed Hambicki’s heart to see how fast the public helped out in his time of need. “It shows how much people care genuinely about you and your well-being,” he said. He was in the midst of ordering the new chair on Jan. 19, when a stranger came knocking on his door. Hambicki’s mother opened the door to the family’s Glendale home and he heard her gasp. A man brought back Hambicki’s missing wheelchair. He confessed to taking it, explaining he thought Hambicki left the chair outside to be picked up by garbage trucks. Hambicki said the man seemed genuine and it doesn’t matter to him whether the man stole the chair with malicious intent. “I don’t even care, I’m just grateful he returned it,” he said. It seemed like a miracle took place, but Hambicki noticed his wheelchair was not in the same condition as before. It looked banged up, the wheels were off balance and its seat cushion was missing. The multiple surgeries Hambicki had over the years have made his skin sensitive and prone to sores. His seat cushion is critically needed to distribute Hambicki’s weight evenly on the chair, he explained. All the chair’s new flaws made it unusable, he said, putting Hambicki back in the same position he was in before. He still plans to order a new chair and isn’t quite sure how long it might take to get it. One chair he ordered several years ago took nine months to deliver. Hambicki said he would allow anyone who sent donations to his family the opportunity to ask for a refund. It didn’t really seem right, he said, considering the stolen chair was returned. But donors kept contributing to the family’s Hambicki’s GoFundMe.com page. Even after updating their page with news of the wheelchair’s return, people continued sending in donations. Hambicki said he was humbled and surprised by the community support.

A former psychiatrist for a recovery clinic with three Valley locations, including Glendale, was arrested after he was accused of sharing illicit drugs with a patient. Dr. Rajeeve Billing faced charges including use and possession of dangerous and narcotic drugs. A Feb. 13 preliminary hearing was scheduled, according to Maricopa County Superior Court. The 2nd Chance Treatment Center announced last week it fired Billing. The center reported the mother of an unidentified patient at 2nd Chance complained in December of “inappropriate and possibly criminal” behavior on the part of Billing. “The patient’s mother provided copies of various cell phone videos - mostly showing Dr. Billing freestyle rapping with the patient in an apartment with beer cans on the counter and Dr. Billing smoking what appears to be a cigarette,” the company news release stated. Although the mother claimed more serious criminal activities took place, including using or sharing illicit drugs together, no videos or other evidence was provided despite multiple requests for it, according to 2nd Chance. The company completed its internal investigation around Jan. 13. Initially, Billing denied the accusations and explained his social interaction with the patient was not a violation of his ethical responsibilities because the patient’s direct medical care was reassigned to another provider in late December 2019, according to the news release. Also, 2nd Chance claimed two weeks after the mother’s initial complaint, she met with company owners and asked for money to “resolve and close her complaint.” The company stated it refused the mother’s demand and stopped direct interaction with her. Then, beginning the week of Jan. 20, 2nd Chance learned from the physician – as well as local law enforcement and investigators from the Arizona Medical Board – Billing’s alleged conduct “was at least partly based in fact and was so serious as to require search warrants to

be executed and arrests to be made.” 2nd Chance immediately placed Billing on administrative leave, continuing its internal investigation, in cooperation with local law enforcement and the Ari-

zona Medical Board. The company learned on Jan. 23, Billing signed an interim agreement with the Arizona Medical Board to restrict his license based on the underlying criminal, ethical and professional claims raised against him. The company also discovered Billing was arrested Jan. 24, on “multiple drug-related charges several of which are felony charges,” according to the release. Taking its patients into account, the company fired Billing on Jan. 26. Billing was certified by the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology and received his medical degree from St. George’s University School of Medicine. He completed a residency in psychiatry at Hennepin Healthcare, followed by a fellowship in addiction psychiatry at Emory University. 2nd Chance Treatment Center provides comprehensive outpatient treatment for opioid and alcohol addictions.

zations; businesses; and private residents. For the first time, the annual count was conducted electronically using a cell phone application. Paul Denial, supervisor of Glendale’s Revitalization department, helped organize the count. “Today’s purpose is to go out and canvas the community and locate people who appear to be homeless and to engage them, talk to them, find out some demographic information and offer some support and assistance,” Denial said. Denial said the volunteers were trained on how to approach the individuals and remain safe. He said the count is important as it allows the city to understand how relevant the problem of homelessness is. “It’s important we have a good and realistic understanding of what the homeless issue is in our community,” Denial said. “We have a lot of incidental information about what is going on in the homeless community, but if we go out today and we are able to count and get some hard numbers, then we’ll be able to understand the true significance.” Matthew Hess, administrator in Glendale’s Revitalization Department, said the count is important for several reasons. “Not only do you have the total number of homeless, but some of the issues, age, demographics, health situations being experienced by the homeless,” Hess said. Hess said the city coordinated on the count with the Glendale Police Department and community services like Phoenix Rescue Mission.

When homeless people were contacted, volunteers offered community services and a bag of toiletries. After the outreach, Hess said his group did not encounter any homeless individuals but did come across two small camps. He said the camps were made from old materials and were dirty. Hess said, this year, the point-in-time count ran smoothly because they began administering the survey by using tablets and phones. In addition, Hess said a new question they focused on revolved around foster care. They wanted to know how many, if any, individuals had gone through the foster care system in their youth. “There’s just more talk about issues surrounding children aging out of foster care,” Hess said. “It’s not something that’s always been at the top of people’s consciousness when they’re talking about assisting homeless people.” He said it can be common for foster children to become homeless if they are forced into the streets once they turn 18. Hess was not able to provide a number of total homeless individuals in Glendale, but he did say at least 100 were counted. This year’s count will be released by MAG in the spring, he said. Hess said his group was out in the field for roughly three hours. As the volunteers returned, some of them were tired but most were in good spirits with smiles on their faces. City staff said they were proud of the efforts of community volunteers. “It just reinforces how compassionate some people can be that a lot of folks come out in the middle of the night to organize and walk around to help those who are less fortunate,” Hess said.

Man shot, killed after parking space argument BY TOM SCANLON

Glendale Star Managing Editor

Police say an argument over a parking space led to the killing of Tyler Wilson, 31, Wednesday, Jan. 29, in Glendale’s Westgate Entertainment District. Wilson, a welder and mechanic at Avondale’s Purgatory Industries, was on his way to a hot rod show. According to Jay O’Neill of the Glendale Police Department, Wilson, an Avondale resident, was a passenger in a vehicle when he was involved in a verbal altercation over a parking space with the driver of a silver four-door sedan. “The suspect vehicle pulled ahead of Wilson’s vehicle and Wilson exited his vehicle, where the argument escalated. The driver of the silver sedan fired multiple shots at Wilson and then fled,” said O’Neill. The shooting happened at 7:10 p.m. in a Westgate parking lot. Wilson was found by emergency responders suffering from multiple gun-

shot wounds. “Glendale Police and Fire attempted life-saving measures and Wilson was transported to a local hospital where he succumbed to his injuries and was pronounced deceased,” O’Neill said. He said the suspect fled and was last

seen traveling south on 91st Avenue. “Glendale Police Homicide Detectives are investigating this incident and are asking for the public’s help in identifying the suspect and vehicle involved in this homicide,” O’Neill said. Police released photos taken from surveillance video of the vehicle driven by the suspect, a newer model, silver four-door sedan. “The driver, who is considered armed and dangerous, is described as a Hispanic male, 25 to 35 years old, with spiky dark hair, who was last seen wearing a gray hooded sweatshirt or jacket,” O’Neill said. He asked anyone with information regarding the incident or who can identify the suspect or vehicle to call the Glendale Police Department at 623-930-3000 or Silent Witness at 480-WITNESS or 480-TESTIGO. According to Tyler Wilson’s Facebook page, he worked at Purgatory Industries since Sept. 25. His list of previous employment included working as a cook at the Tilted Kilt and Nook Kitchen. Classic cars and hot rods were clearly his passion. His profile shows him working on a car engine. Many other posts show well-maintained, vintage vehicles. His last post, a few days before he died, had the text, “Me seeing an old truck sitting in a field” - with an emoji of Vince Vaughan grinning and

clapping. The shooting took place outside the first Hot Rod Night of the season at Westgate. The car shows are held there every Wednesday through May 6.

O’Neill said Mondahy there were no updates on the Wilson killing. Purgatory Industries posted news of Wilson’s death and the police photo of the suspect vehicle, urging people to help the police. Scores expressed shock and grief. “We have known Tyler since he was in his young teens,” commented Heather Bishop. “He was a great kid! Big heart.” “I can’t believe that there are people out there that have no regard for life so they go around and killing innocent people for no reason,” said Ramon Espinoza. As of Monday, a Gofundme account set up to raise funds for funeral expenses raised more than $6,000, with a goal of $10,000.

Bank robber allegedly tries to ‘launder’ money BY EMMA RICHBURG Glendale Star Staff Writer

Glendale Police arrested Richie Hayes, 51, for robbing the BMO Harris Bank at 5500 W. Bell Road. Police report Hayes used stolen money with dye on it at Desert Diamond Casino West Valley. According to Glendale Police, when Hayes was arrested he still had the note used in the bank robbery. It said, “I have a gun, I have bad men outside, 2 of your coworkers homes, if I get caught they will go in and hurt or possibly kill them.” The note also demanded no alarms, no dye packs and no trackers. But police said his attempts to “launder” money with dye on it led to his arrest. Hayes allegedly committed the robbery on Jan. 2, taking $4,500 from the bank teller. According to court documents, the teller slipped a pink dye pack in the cash before giving it to the robber. A gym near the bank captured surveillance footage of a man believed to be Hayes riding a bike and carrying a black backpack. The video shows an explosion of pink powder coming from the backpack. The man is then seen placing the bike in the bed of a Toyota pick-up before driving away. The video was played on the TV show “Live PD.” According to the Tohono O’odham Police Department, stolen cash marked with dye was put into a gaming device at the casino Jan. 17. The marked bills were quickly detected by Desert Diamond Casino security staff, who then worked with TOPD officers to review surveillance footage and identify the suspect and his vehicle. When the suspect, later identified as Hayes, returned a week later, Tohono O’odham Police followed him after he left and notified Glendale Police. Hayes was arrested Jan. 24, at 91st and Olive avenues in Peoria. According to court documents, police searched his vehicle and found dye stains on the center console and driver

$5 Tickets for Glendale Residents door, over $1,800 in cash, an open bottle of hand sanitizer and a plastic bag with numerous $1 bills covered in dye. On the rear driver’s seat was a yellow notebook containing the handwritten letter matching the note the bank teller described from the robbery. According to court records, Hayes told police his father recently passed away and he had to stop working. He allegedly told police he became desperate for money and decided to rob a bank. Hayes told police he used hand sanitizer to clean the dye off the money but he didn’t do this with the $1 bills because it was not worth it. Hayes said he would take the money he could not get all the dye off to the casino and attempt to play it in slot machines. Hayes was charged with one count of burglary in the third degree and one count of robbery. His preliminary hearing was scheduled for Feb. 4, 2020.

Banner Health breaks ground on its largest health center BY OCTAVIO SERRANO

Leaders from Banner Health, its developer partner NexCore Group, Mayor Jerry Weiers and other government, community and business leaders broke ground on the new Health Center.

Glendale Star Staff Writer

Banner Health broke ground last week on a $53 million health center just outside Peoria. The center, in north Glendale near 75th Avenue and Loop 101, will be Banner’s largest health center. At 128,000 square feet, the facility will have 128 exam rooms and 13 imaging rooms. When completed, it will be about two to three times larger than Banner’s next-largest health center. Banner Health leaders, developer NexCore Group and Glendale Mayor Jerry Weiers gathered Wednesday, Jan. 29, to break ground on the new health center. The project is scheduled to be completed spring of 2021. Becky Kuhn, chief operating officer of Banner Health, said their focus was patient-oriented. “At Banner, our mission is to make healthcare easier, so life can be better,” Kuhn said. “Our mission focuses on providing the best possible health care built on tried and true best medical practices along with innovative treatments and technologies creating real breakthrough in patient care and patients’ outcomes.” Kuhn said the new site’s design will

emphasize convenience. “We know so much of the care today is really moving into the outpatient arena,” Kuhn said. “People want convenience, they want reasonable costs and they want access.” Kuhn said Banner has owned the land for six years. She is excited to continue to develop a partnership with the city of Glendale. “We love being in the city of Glendale,” Kuhn said. “One of our largest hospitals is here in the city (Banner Thunderbird Medical Center),” Kuhn said. “To be able to provide this growing, expanding area of the Valley is a

Troopers shoot alleged gang member near stadium BY GLENDALE STAR STAFF Arizona Department of Public Safety troopers shot an alleged gang member Thursday, Jan. 30. The shooting took place near 91st and Montebello avenues, south of State Farm Stadium. According to a press release, DPS troopers became aware of several gang members involved in an illegal weapons transaction. “During the transaction a robbery took place. Following the robbery, troopers attempted to apprehend the suspects,” according to a release.

The suspects allegedly rammed a trooper’s vehicle, disabling it. When one of the suspects pointed a gun at the troopers, a trooper fired at the suspect, the release said. The injured suspect was treated by troopers, then transported to a hospital where he was in critical condition. Two suspects, described by DPS as African American males wearing dark clothing, abandoned a vehicle near 89th and West Maryland avenues and fled on foot. They were still at large at press time.

great privilege for us.” Weiers said a health center like this is important because Glendale is the fifth-largest city in Arizona. “No one is surprised the city’s experiencing tremendous growth and as we grow, so are our need for quality, accessible healthcare,” Weiers said. Patient care is important to Weiers as he said he suffered from cancer years back. He said the inconvenience of the situation really put a toll on his family and he is glad Banner Health is keeping patients in mind as they develop this project. “If you want to heal somebody, you also have to heal them mentally at the same time,” Weiers said.

In addition, Weiers said Banner Health provided $6.6 billion in benefits towards the community for services like housing decisions for cancer patients and bereavement camps for children. Glendale’s newest Health Center is meant to bring patients convenience for their medical needs. Its design and choice of staff will reportedly make it a smooth process for patients to access their healthcare. “For all their success and incredible growth, they have never lost sight of what truly matters and it’s taking great care of people in the communities they serve,” Weiers said. The health center at 7701 W. Aspera Boulevard will employ 215 health care professionals, including 47 physicians, nurse practitioners and physician assistants. Primary care will include family medicine, internal medicine and pediatrics. Specialties will be cardiology, dermatology, endocrinology, gastroenterology, general surgery, psychiatry, obstetrics, gynecology, orthopedics and vascular treatment.

Accused killer of Glendale League of Women Voters businessman faces trial celebrates 100 years BY GLENDALE STAR STAFF Maricopa County Superior Court scheduled a preliminary trial Thursday, Feb. 6, for accused killer Sean Davidson. Davidson, 21, faces first-degree murder charges for allegedly shooting and killing Ray Watkins Jan. 25. Davidson allegedly told police he killed Watkins “because he was sexually assaulting me in my sleep.” Watkins, 53, was fatally shot in the alley behind the Astrology Store, his downtown Glendale business. According to the police report, Davidson, a Glendale resident, had been banned from the business. But he was in the store the afternoon of Jan. 25. After leaving the store, he told police he bought a gun at a pawn shop and ammunition at a gun store. He returned to the Astrology Store as it was closing for the night at 6 p.m. Watkins was leaving through the back door when Davidson allegedly confronted him. A witness saw Davidson shoot Watkins and then stomp on the victim’s head, according to the police report. Davidson then allegedly went to the front of the store, broke a glass and entered the store. He later told police he was going to kill Watkins’ husband, co-owner of the store, but changed his mind. The shooting took place a block from the Glendale Police Department. A witness pointed out Davidson to officers who arrived on the scene. The officers chased Davidson but he escaped on foot. After store workers identified Davidson as the man who shot Watkins.

I misjudged a superman on and off the court BY DAVID LEIBOWITZ Glendale Star Columnist

If you considered yourself a Phoenix Suns fan for the first decade of this century – the best decade in Suns’ history – you will under stand what I am about to say about Kobe Bryant, who died last week at 41. God, I hated his guts. Mine was a loathing that extended outside the hardwood, a revulsion that extended to the man personally. It took into account a single night in a hotel room in Colorado; Bryant’s imperious air and the way he carried himself; and what Bryant himself called the “Mamba Mentality,” which struck me for years as an ironically perfect metaphor: superstar as snake. God, was I wrong. I see that now, in the aftermath of a Sunday morning helicopter crash in the hills of Calabasas. I have read all the fawning obituaries, watched all the television tearjerkers, and pondered why we allow our passions for sports to obliterate logic.

What do I know now that I didn’t know then? That Kobe Bryant, inhumanly talented on the court, was merely human off it. Only two people ever knew with certainty what happened in that room at the Lodge & Spa at Cordillera on the night of June 30, 2003. Now one of those people is dead and the other, the accuser, took an undisclosed sum of cash not to testify in court. Whatever happened – be it sexual assault or adultery – in retrospect, it looks to be the lone blemish on Bryant’s otherwise exemplary public profile. Thus, it should be kept in perspective and not held against him for eternity. Because that single night aside, Kobe Bryant appears to have been an excellent husband to Vanessa, his wife of 18 years, and a doting father to his four daughters, Natalia, Bianka, Capri and 13-year-old Gianna, who perished in that same crash. Then there’s everything else, Bryant’s life on the court, where he

served for a decade as a villain for Suns’ fans. I’m talking about 2000 to 2010, when Kobe ranked right beside the San Antonio Spurs as the Suns’ most reviled rival. Kobe’s Lakers won the NBA championship in 2000, with Bryant and Shaquille O’Neal steamrolling through a meek Suns team, 4-1. The teams’ next playoff confrontation, the 2006 first round, was epic – and epically satisfying. The Suns went down 3-1 in that series. We won Game 5 at home, then flew to LA and whipped the Lakers in Game 6 – despite Kobe scoring 50 and Raja Bell, our designated Mamba stopper, suspended for a flagrant takedown of Bryant. The Suns jumped to a 17-point lead in Game 7 and sent the Lakers home. We also eliminated Kobe in the first round the following year, 4-1. Kobe got his revenge in 2010, though. That was peak Kobe, the last of his five NBA titles, with Shaq gone and Bryant a slithering, scoring nightmare. It was also the last great Suns team, the final ride for Steve Nash

and Amar’e Stoudemire, and for my fandom of a team since ruined by incompetent ownership. I was in the stands for Game 6, the series ender. What do I recall of that nightmare? A long Kobe three-pointer right before halftime and a series of buckets late in the third quarter to slash the Suns’ throats. I screamed at anyone in purple and gold that night, doubly so for anyone in a Bryant jersey. I never hated him more than that night. Kobe Bryant was the greatest athlete I ever detested, and I despised him for reasons that now seem insufficient and dumb. Dead at 41, he turned out to be superman in a basketball jersey, and superlative off the court – in ways that matter far, far more. David Leibowitz has called the Valley home since 1995.

Business Briefcase

BY TOM SCANLON

Sparrow Partners provided an artist’s rendering of a 189-unit apartment complex for 55-and-older residents to be built near Westgate.

Glendale Star Managing Editor

The biggest business in town, the city of Glendale, is looking to expand. Or maybe not. Coincidentally or not, in an election year, Glendale City Council has been busy with a number of projects — at times resisting the plans of City Manager Kevin Phelps and his staff. Last week’s council workshop is a good example. Two projects were the focus: A city prosecutor ofﬁce remodel and a city court remodel. Total projected cost: $7 million. Several council members said they thought it was just too much, and demanded less expensive options. As it

was a workshop, no voting was done. Phelps and his staff may have work to do to get traction, here … It’s likely just a coincidence, but the cost of the projects discussed at the workshop is just about the same as the $6.5 million sale of Glen Lakes Golf

Course by the city to developer Towne. This deal drew heated comments from the Save Glen Lakes crowd, who have protested every step of the process. A few council members also were against the sale, but it was approved Dec. 14. Though the sale was approved, it was not signed for more than a month. Finally, word came in last week from Jay Crandall, a city spokesman: “The purchase and sale agreement for the Glen Lakes property has been signed.” Even so, those against the city selling the golf course to a developer will have more chances to make their cases, as the property must go through rezoning before it can be developed. • After the public workshop, Phelps and council went into private, executive session. The reason, according to the agenda, was to discuss “a contract relating to property in the area of 95th Avenue and Cardinals Way.” • At last week’s voting meeting, city council approved a plan to build

55-and-over “luxury apartments” at 91st Avenue and Zanjero Boulevard, just across Glendale Avenue from Westgate. According to agenda material, “The proposed project site is vacant and has been underutilized for many years.” The developer is planning “a high-quality, 189-unit multifamily community designed to accommodate active adult living with appropriate amenities.” Sparrow Partners, the developer, has plans for later “mixed-use development,” which could be retail, restaurants and/or ofﬁce space. “Sparrow anticipates the development will be constructed in multiple phases. The multifamily development within Area 1 will be a separate phase of development from Areas 2 and 3,” the developer noted in its rezoning request. • Glendale City Council also approved a request by Beardsley 101 to build new Jaguar, Range Rover and Volvo dealerships near the Arrowhead BMW dealership in north Glendale. In the development agreement, the city agrees to waive “$500,000 of development fees.”

West Valley home buyers face shrinking choices BY PAUL MARYNIAK

Glendale Star Staff Writer

The year started badly for homebuyers in the West Valley and it didn’t take long to get worse. So said the Cromford Report, which closely analyzes the Valley’s housing market. It reported two weeks ago while Maricopa County is welcoming new residents by the thousands, active listings of homes are down by 30 percent from where they were when 2019 began. Last week, Cromford had even more distressing news for buyers looking in the West Valley, saying while the Valley barely held onto the pattern of having more homes listed by Jan. 15 than there were on Jan. 1 of any year, “significant segments of the market have broken the rules and reported lower active counts on Jan. 15 than Jan. 1.” It specifically cited every community in the West Valley. Glendale was down 57%, from 554 listings to 236. Peoria had 352 listings Jan. 30, 49% less than the 691 last year. Avondale had 75 listings Jan. 30, down 57% from 176 listings the year before. Buckeye’s 377 listings were down 21% from 2019. Goodyear was down 37%, from 450 listings this time last year to 283 this year. Litchfield Park was down 30%, with 104 listings compared to 149 last year. Tolleson had 42 listings, 57% less than last year’s 97. Overall, the fact listings were higher by mid-January than they were when the year began Valley-wide wasn’t all much to cheer about either, according to Cromford’s data. Inventory this month rose a paltry .8 percent between Jan. 1 and Jan. 15 – a far cry from the 7.2 percent increase in available homes for the same time period in January 2019. “Not only are they not getting a flood, new listings are also well below what we would normally expect,” Cromford said. “After two full weeks, we have seen fewer than 4,000 new listings across all areas and types – down 15 percent from last year at this time. “This is an unexpected turn for the

worse for supply and if it keeps up, we are going to see unusually weak supply during the key buying season kicking off in February. The competition for the listings that do exist will be intense.” Even scarier for homebuyers in 2020 is rising price. For the first time in Maricopa County, Cromford reported, one community registered a shocking statistic: The average price of single-family active listings in Cave Creek exceeded $1 million. While homes on the perimeter of the metro area, such as Florence, are seeing square-foot price increases of 10 percent, others closer to the center are seeing prices rise by 8%. “Most of the larger cities are around 6% at present but heading higher,” Cromford reported. The imbalance between supply and demand is driving prices, but so too is the rapid increase in people moving to Maricopa County, particularly from other states and especially from California. “The lack of supply can only be described as shocking,” the Cromford Report said of the overall situation confronting buyers in the county, noting the 30% decline puts inventory at the lowest level since August 2005. “Anyone who thinks this severe shortage will not result in a significant rise in prices is going to have another thought coming pretty soon,” it added, noting: “The median sales price is already up 11% over the last 12 months and the average price per square foot is up almost 9% and probably heading for a double-figure appreciation rate.” Stating analysts “are clutching at straws here to find something indicating a little cooling in the market,” the website reported demand remains higher than normal. “The big hope for buyers must be for a surge in new listings arriving over the next 12 weeks,” it said. “Perhaps sellers will be tempted by the higher pricing they can achieve. However, if they are staying around Phoenix, they will have to pay more for their new home too. “Phoenix is currently the strongest large-city housing market in the USA

and this is fueled by inter-state population movements. Retirees are a big part but so are people moving here from California and other Western states for work and the lower cost of living. Demand is likely to remain healthy despite the rising prices.” Buyers who are prepared to spend more than they want on a house have to pray for a change “in the meager supply of homes” within the next three

months, Cromford said. But it dampened hope by reporting last week, “Unfortunately, early indications are exactly the opposite, with the weakest start to the year we have recorded since 2005.” While conceding “it is a little too early to be drawing ﬁrm conclusions,” Cromford said initial signs in the market “suggest the supply problem will intensify rather than get resolved.”

Glendale Prep oﬀ to fast start, battles bigger schools BY ERIC NEWMAN

Glendale Star Staff Writer

Through 12 regular-season 2A games, the Glendale Prep boys basketball team had an undefeated record, and each victory had come by double-digit margins. A game - even coach Steve Silvernail described as “weird” – a rare Saturday-afternoon game on Jan. 25, in which the referees called nearly double the personal fouls in the first half as they did in the second for both sides – resulted in a 65-50 victory over Northland Prep. The Griffins are not taking their recent success for granted. Glendale Prep, as Silvernail entered his first season, was 12-15 in the 2018-19 season and missed the playoffs. A youthful roster, with nearly all its starters and important role players just juniors or younger, had to find its footing under a new system. “We had the coaching change. We started laying the foundations of what we wanted to do. Last year was kind of the prep year, and now we’re in full steam and trying to kind of go all-out and fight for the state championship,” said senior Matt Hawkins. Most of the players in the starting lineup are close in size and skill. The majority of them, even the post play-

ers, are trustworthy dribbling the ball, and can defend a variety of positions. “Everyone’s interchangeable, so anyone can guard a big man, anyone can guard a guard. So it’s helpful we can take that fast tempo,” said Hawkins. “It helps us play faster against

bigger teams, so we can kind of run by them and get out in transition,” added junior Gavin Aikins. Its strategy and winning mindset has not only led Glendale Prep to playing well in conference play, either. Silvernail scheduled the Griffins to play in two high-level tournaments this season filled with teams competing in 4A and 5A ball. The Griffins pulled off upsets of 4A opponents Saguaro and Greenway in a December tournament, reaching the semifinals, and were mere points away from Moon Valley in the third-place game. “We have talked about it a lot, we think of ourselves as not just a 2A team, but a team that can play with anybody. But, you don’t know how to do that until you actually go out and are on the court with those bigger schools. So even if we lose, we learn a lot from it and we take it into the rest of the season,” Silvernail said. There are mere weeks left before the playoffs, and the Griffins believe they are hitting their stride. With wins and close games against high-level opponents, and a winning streak in-tact in 2A ball, they hope the success results in a deep playoff run. “We’re ready to play with anyone,” Aikins said.

Proposal to make high school sports male, female or co-ed BY HOWARD FISCHER Capitol Media Services

Arizona state lawmakers are being asked to keep boys -- or at least those who are genetically identified as male -- off of high school and college sports teams for girls and women. The proposal by Rep. Nancy Barto, R-Phoenix, would require all sports be designated as male, female or co-ed. More to the point, HB 2706 would spell out in Arizona law athletic teams or sports designated for women or girls “may not be open to students of the male sex.’’ There is, however, no such companion language about girls wanting to play on boys teams. But Matt Sharp, an attorney with Alliance Defending Freedom, said it does not amount to illegal discrimination. He said Title IX, the federal civil rights law designed to give women equal opportunities in sports, specifically spells out they can participate in men’s teams if there is no comparable team for women. Sharp said it means a woman who wants to be on a football team is free to do so without undermining bans on those who, according to Barto’s bill, are considered male. The legislation sets up a three-part test if there is a dispute to determine a student’s sex. First would be the student’s “internal and external reproductive anatomy.’’ Then there is the question of the student’s “normal endogenously produced levels of testosterone.’’ It means the hormone naturally produced, not counting any therapies to increase or decrease levels. Finally, any determination also would depend on “an analysis of the student’s genetic makeup.’’ All three would be considered. George Khalaf, a political consultant to Barto, said the first two may fall into “gray areas,’’ particularly when someone has surgery for gender reassignment. “But the third one is pretty clear cut,’’ he said. “There is no way, no matter what you do, your genetic makeup, your genetic test, is going to be one way or the other,’’ Khalaf said. “As far as I understand, there’s no way hormonal treatments or

what is medically available today would alter someone’s genetic makeup.’’ And he said this law would apply even in cases of gender reassignment -- and even if state agencies, including the motor vehicle division, agree to alter the gender on someone’s driver’s license. In fact, a spokesman for the state Motor Vehicle Divison said it does make such changes if there is a signed statement from a physician the person “is irrevocably committed to the gender change process.’’ The issue, Khalaf said, is one of fairness, particularly for women who may lack the same physical strength as men. “Even if it somehow says you’re a man, woman on your government documents and all that, everything’s been reassigned, still, (there’s) your body structure,’’ Khalaf said. “They can’t take muscle,’’ he said, even with changes in testosterone levels. “There are still innate strengths in me you cannot reassign, you cannot make go away.’’ And Khalaf said, no matter what, “there are enough physical differences ... it’s creating an unfair advantage for these biological men.’’ There was no immediate response from the Human Rights Coalition. But the Daily Caller reports organizations, last year, submitted a statement in support of federal legislation to force schools to allow male athletes who identify as women to compete on women’s teams. This statement said it is not “rooted in fact’’ men are stronger and faster than women. Khalaf said he knows of no such dispute in Arizona. But he said the rules of the Arizona Interscholastic Association which governs high school sports would seem to allow this kind of competition. But there are disputes elsewhere, including a case being handled by Sharp’s organization. It involves three women on a track team at Bloomfield High School in Connecticut who are complaining to the U.S. Department of Education their rights under Title IX -- the same law lets women play on certain men’s teams -- are being violated by a policy adopted by the Connecticut Interscholastic Athletic Conference, allowing those who identify as

women to play on women’s teams. “You’re now taking away female opportunity,’’ Sharp said. “Now, rather than there being designated sports for them, places where they can just not compete but where they can win and get all the benefits from being successful in sports, they are losing those to these two guys,’’ he said. Sharp said the new competitors have broken about a dozen records. “There’s been about 15, 16 track meets and championships these two biological males have won,’’ he said. “So it ultimately boils down to the equal opportunities Title IX is supposed to provide to women being taken away as a result of these policies.’’ Sharp acknowledged the use of genetic tests may not be perfect, saying there are medical conditions resulting in people being born with unusual chromosome patterns. “We recognize there are students that have a disorder of sexual development or an intersex condition,’’ he said.

“We want to show compassion for them and recognize just because you have one of these conditions doesn’t mean you aren’t a female and can’t play on sports,’’ Sharp explained. He said it’s where the other parts of the three-pronged test come in. “You’re going to look at what is their anatomy, what is their testosterone levels,’’ Sharp said. He said gender is not always a perfect test for sports competitions. But Sharp said it’s no different than setting up sports so youngsters of a particular age compete against others in the same age group, and those of a particular weight class compete against others of the same size. “There’s going to be guys that are slower than your average girl and girls that could beat a lot of the guys,’’ he said. “But this is the best way to create a level playing field that’s been working for decades.’’ No date has been set for a hearing on the bill which has 22 other Republican House members as cosponsors.

Comedian James P. Connolly to perform in Glendale BY ERIC NEWMAN

Glendale Star Staff Writer

James P. Connolly, who is set to perform his stand-up comedy act at Stir Crazy Comedy Club in Glendale from Feb. 6-8, took a circuitous route to show business. Connolly attended Harvard University on a Marine Corps ROTC scholarship, then served in Desert Storm. It was on a military base he got his start in humor writing. “My colonel wanted to roast some of the fellow officers in the unit, and so I wrote some of the jokes for him,” Connolly said. The zingers played well, and Connolly realized a career comedy James P. Connolly will perform at Stir Crazy Comedy Club. (Photo courtesy James P. Connolly)

might be a realistic goal. “I told myself if I survive the war, I’ll go back and do this myself in the USA,” he said. The path was not straightforward from there, either. He spent time as a DJ and karaoke host, a tour guide at Universal Studios and other jobs before focusing on comedy. Connolly appeared on TV shows such as “America’s Got Talent” and “Comics Unleashed.” Live performance is where he thrives, he said. “To me, stand up is being emotionally weightless. It’s the one time you get to just feel like you’re floating. It’s just your thoughts and your reactions, and you’re creating the rhythm with the audience,” Connolly said.

“There’s no backup band or slides that you cut to. It’s just you, and I like the challenge of performing up there.” Whether audiences can understand his background or not, he believes they will find the funny in his act. “Hopefully people A) can relate to what I’m talking about, or B) they laugh at me because they have no way that they can relate to what I’m talking about,” he said. James P. Connolly

2019 Lexus NX300h Hybrid BY C.A. HAIRE

Glendale Star Columnist

When Lexus introduced their allnew NX compact SUV a few years ago, many consumers thought it would be nothing but a Toyota RAV with a different body. This is not the case. Most parts are exclusive to Lexus, and so are the driving characteristics. So is the price, starting at $36,000 for the gas engine car and $39,000 for the 300h hybrid version we drove. With options like back up camera, triple beam headlights, navigation, and a host of many luxury goodies, the tab comes to $49,387. Under the hood is a 2.5-liter engine connected to a generator/battery hybrid system cranking 194 horsepower. The claimed fuel economy is 33 mpg city, 30 highway, with 31 overall. This compares to the non-hybrid NX

at 22/28/25. To see if this was true, we rolled up 300 miles in a week of driving. The cabin has plenty of positive fea-

tures. The materials and workmanship are first-rate as expected. The climate controls are easy to operate. There is enough room to seat four adults. The

infotainment system and navigation works well, but instead of a stick control, it is operated by a finger tough pad, which is annoying to use. Practice on this control makes perfect. Driving the NX300h is very pleasant. The hybrid system provides plenty of power at low speed, making a good choice for city traffic. The cornering ability is above average for an SUV, and the ride is comfortable. There is enough ground clearance to take the vehicle off-pavement, which we did. The real-world fuel economy was 27 in the city, 29 on highway trips, with 28 overall. This compares to the non-hybrid NX we drove last year that got 23 mpg overall. Those who seek a compact SUV with quality, luxury and good fuel economy may find this Lexus fulfills the requirement.

If you have tendinitis, resting will make it worse BY DR. NICK HUNTER

Glendale Star Guest Writer

We’ve had a few cases of tendinitis this past month and they’ve got three things in common. There’s a weakness in the muscle or one of the surrounding muscles, lots of tension, and overuse. All of these affect each other and one will cause the other to get worse. A weak muscle puts a lot of pressure on the surrounding muscles. This then causes tension to increase in these muscles. As a result, other muscles have to work harder and this overuse causes tension.

So what is tendinitis? Tendons attach all the muscles in our body to our bones and without them, muscles could not do their job. Tendinitis is an overuse injury, making it chronic in nature. Often times my clients say they feel it building up slowly over time. The pain felt is often because the tendon becomes irritated and inflamed. This irritation becomes worse and eventually, it hurts everytime the muscle and tendon is in use. Why does this happen? It often happens as a result of a biomechanical imbalance, causing the muscles to do too much or do a different job than what it was designed for. ‘This imbalance can also cause the tendons to do work in a different path, causing irritation or inflammation. It can also happen if the muscle is

stronger than the tendon itself. This puts the tendon under a lot of pressure, as it cannot support the action the muscle is performing. How do you treat it? Tendons work under the eccentric contraction (lengthening) of the muscle. This is why most of the time it’s caused by repeated bouts of twisting or turning. Taking time out of certain activities like golf, fishing or tennis will help the tendon “calm.” Tendinitis is a warm injury so icing while resting is essential. This allows the tendon to cool and reduces the pain you’re feeling Physical therapy can also help to remove any swelling in the tendon and release the tension in the surrounding muscles, with plenty of handson treatment including instrument or tool-assisted soft tissue mobilization (also known as “scraping”), joint mobilization, cupping or trigger point dry needling. This allows the muscles and tendons to go back into the position they were designed to be in. Stretching can also be a vital part of recovery by relieving the pressure on the tendon. Strengthening the surrounding muscles and the tendon itself then becomes necessary. This strengthening is done by resisting the opposite action. For example, the bicep bends the elbow; so to strengthen the tendon you must resist strengthening of the elbow. This “training” can last up to four weeks. But don’t worry, this means the pain has less chance of coming back The worst thing you can do is to just rest and ice, then go back to the original activity. Do not do this. It will only end up making things worse in the long-run. Strengthening is absolutely vital! Nick Hunter is a doctor of physical therapy and owner of Preferred Physical Therapy.

When this Shrek was caught, he shear-ly felt sheepish Most of you would have seen the movie “Shrek.” In the movie, Shrek was a ﬁctional ogre, with quite an attitude, and a great Welsh accent. Shrek liked to be alone, didn’t want to socialize much, and was, shall we say, grouchy. He liked being dirty and unkempt. Well, let me introduce to you another Shrek, who was much the same as the Shrek in the movie. In fact, this Shrek was named after the movie. And, this Shrek, like the Shrek in the movie, captured the imagination of the people where he lived. He was a subject of conversation for years in New Zealand and Australia. So, meet the Shrek you may have never known about. Shrek was a male sheep belonging to Bendigo Station, a sheep station near Tarras, New Zealand. He gained international fame in 2004, after he avoided being caught and shorn (sheared) for six years. Male sheep are normally sheared annually, but Shrek apparently hid in caves, avoiding being caught in the sheep gathering times called musters. Shrek was ﬁnally caught on April

CHURCH COMMUNITY CONNECTION Pastor Ed Delph Glendale Star Columnist

15, 2004. The overgrown sheep, who looked like a walking, dark grey blimp, was sheared by a professional in twenty minutes. The shearing was broadcast on national television in New Zealand. His fleece contained enough wool to make 20 large men’s suits, weighing 60 pounds. An average fleece weighs around 10 pounds. Shrek became a national icon. He was taken to parliament to meet the then New Zealand Prime Minister, Helen Clark, in May 2004, to celebrate his tenth birthday. In November 2006, thirty months after his initial shearing, Shrek was shorn again, on an iceberg floating off the coast of Dunedin, New Zealand. Let’s talk about Shrek. For six years, Shrek carried six times the regular weight of his fleece. Simply because he

was away from his shepherd. That’s a lot of weight to carry around, especially when you are hiding in caves and climbing high mountains to avoid being seen. There was not much companionship either. When the other sheep saw him, they probably thought he was a mutant, zombie sheep or something. He wasn’t going to pull the wool over the other sheep’s eyes. Do “ewe” know what I mean? Notice Shrek’s downward spiral and upward ascension. First, Shrek wandered away by himself. Then he hid in caves and nooks and crannies, hiding from the shepherd. Next, Shrek accumulated extra weight of his own doing. It was a weight he didn’t need to carry but he carried it anyway. I would imagine sixty pounds of extra weight slowed him down to a crawl. It certainly made it tougher to balance on those craggy rocks and cliffs. This reminds me of “us” human race type of sheep. We do the same thing Shrek did. We wander, we hide, we get dirty, we accumulate the weight of broken relationships and wrong choices. We get lonely. We get needy. Then

we reap the consequences of what we have sown and as the Beatles song says, “Boy, we gotta’ carry that weight, a long time.” God has one message for all of us Shrek’s out there… “Just come home!” No matter how far we wander, Jesus will always run back to welcome us.” God never departs from us, but it seems like only with difﬁculties do we return to God. Here’s a scripture verse for us today. This is Jesus talking. “Come to Me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will ﬁnd rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and my burden is light.” Matthew 11:28-30. So, there is the real-life story of the other Shrek. Now you know him, why not learn from him?

PHELPS CITY MANAGER PUBLISH: THE GLENDALE STAR - PUBLISHING DATE FEBRUARY 6, 2020. / 280xx NOTICE OF REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS CITY OF GLENDALE LUKE AIR FORCE BASE LIFT STATION DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION ADMINISTRATION SERVICES Project No. 181916 CONSULTING SERVICES The City of Glendale Water Services Department is seeking a qualified engineering firm or team (Consultant), to provide engineering services for the design of a wastewater lift station to transfer wastewater from the Luke Air Force Base wastewater system to the City of Glendale wastewater system. The selected firm or team will provide design and construction administration services. All qualified firms interested in providing the required services are invited to submit their proposal to this Request for Proposal (RFP). All proposals must comply with the requirements specified in this RFP. PROJECT DESCRIPTION The City of Glendale (City) annexed Luke Air Force Base (LAFB) in 1995 to help protect the base from incompatible land-use encroachment. The base currently operates and maintains their own infrastructure to collect and treat wastewater from residential and commercial sources located on the base and a few select off-site facilities near the base. The plant was constructed in 1942 and has undergone several upgrades over the years. In 2017, the Air Force completed an environmental assessment to examine alternatives for managing their wastewater. The assessment confirmed that the plant was nearing the end of its operational life and the preferred alternative was to contract wastewater treatment services from an off-base service provider and close the base’s wastewater treatment plant (WWTF). Since LAFB is located within Glendale’s city limits, the City agreed to provide the needed wastewater treatment services the base requires. The City has wastewater infrastructure within two miles of the base’s plant and has sufficient capacity available to treat the base’s wastewater flows (average dry weather flow of 1.0 million gallons per day). In order to accept LAFB’s wastewater, the City must construct the required infrastructure, which will consist of a combination of gravity and forcemain piping, and a lift station. The lift station will be constructed on the existing LAFB WWTF site located on the northeast corner of Glendale Avenue and El Mirage Road. This project will focus on the construction documents (design plans & specifications) and construction administration services for a complete and operational lift station, including all equipment, site improve-

weather flow of 1.0 million gallons per day). In order to accept LAFB’s wastewater, the City must construct the required infrastructure, which will consist of a combination of gravity and CLASSIFIEDS forcemain piping, and a lift station. The lift station will be constructed on the existing LAFB WWTF site located on the northeast corner of Glendale Avenue and El Mirage Road. This project will focus on the construction documents (design plans & specifications) and construction administration services for a complete and operational lift station, including all equipment, site improvements, infrastructure and appurtenances. SCOPE OF WORK The selected Consultant will work closely with the City’s Water Services and Engineering Departments, Luke AFB, and other City departments, as required. It will also be required to work with outside agencies, such as Maricopa County and others, as necessary.
