ADOT braces EV motorists for a rocky drive BY PAUL MARYNIAK GSN Executive Editor

tarting this week, billboards, social media and television and print media will carry messages urging thousands of motorists in the East Valley, to prepare for three to four years of disruptions in their driving routines. It’s not exactly Armageddon that the Arizona Department of Transportation will be heralding. But it won’t be a walk in the park, especially for car and truck traffic on I-10. And even if you don’t use I-10, you can expect significant increases in traffic along

all the freeways in the East Valley and even major arterials as motorists try to evade the inevitable tie-ups that will be caused by the I-10 Broadway Curve Improvement Project. “There’s no way to sugarcoat it,” said ADOT spokeswoman Kim Noetzel. “It’s going to be impactful.” Seven years in the planning, the work is ready to begin as crews start scraping the asphalt along 11 miles of Interstate 10 between the junction of the San Tan and South Mountain freeways and I-17 near Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport. The project also will involve work on about a mile of east- and westbound US 60 between I-10 and Hardy Drive and a mile of

north- and southbound State Route 143 between I-10 and the southern end of the SR 143 bridge over the Salt River. Motorists will start feeling the impact this coming weekend as work picks up steam on a project aimed at preventing virtually round-the-clock rush hour gridlock on I-10 in the heart of Maricopa County. “When the first phase of construction begins this summer,” ADOT spokeswoman Alexandra Albert said in a virtual briefing earlier this month for Tempe residents, “drivers should prepare for weekend closures on I-10 and US 60.”

CUSD opens new high school in Gilbert BY KEVIN REAGAN GSN Staff Writer

ednesday not only marks the beginning of the new school year for Chandler Unified students but also ushers in the opening of the district’s newest high school – ACP-High in Gilbert. Built at a cost of $87 million, it’s the new campus for formerly title Arizona College Prep, whose students are moving from an old, small campus on Erie Street in Chandler to the new facility on Gilbert and Ocotillo roads. Voters in 2019 approved a $291-mil-

lion bond issue to build the high school on a 73-acre parcel near the Chandler-Gilbert border. At the time, CUSD was booming and enrollment continued growing. At the end of the 2019-20 school year, none of the district’s high schools had fewer than 2,000 students. Hamilton High in particular has had to contend with a burgeoning population of over 4,000 students. Former Superintendent Camille Casteel at one point said she had never Principal Rob Bickes is looking forward to welcoming stu- expected to build another high school, dents this Wednesday at ACP-High in Gilbert, the newest high school in Chandler Unified Scool District.

The Paseo would be built along Ash Street, which would be extended and realigned. The .65-mile path would Juniper Avenue to Elliot Road, east of the Gilbert Road corridor. “This proposed project is in the pre-design phase,” town spokeswoman Jennifer Harrison said. “A complete project budget has not yet been created.” Under the town’s Capital Improvement Plans for fiscal years 2021-30, the estimated cost for the pre-design is $413,000, Harrison said. She added that the pre-design is expected to be completed by December. The Town was taking feedback on the pre-design in a public survey that ended last Friday. The survey asked respondents to choose from a selection of choices for features that would encourage pedes-

Choices for amenities that would best promote more night-time visitors and activities included interactive light art, outdoor movies and seasonal and event LED lighting. Respondents also were asked to pick three top amenities, programmed uses or public spaces they would like to see along The Paseo, including an event plaza, performance space, art installations, shade structures and moveable

furniture. The survey also presented several design options for the three portions of the public corridor – the north, under/ overpass, and south segments. For instance for the potential crossing of the Union Pacific Railroad track near Cullumber Avenue, an underpass and overpass design options were given. Harrison said other proposed amenities for the route included special paving, lighting elements, linear water features, plant life and continuous over-

but grade 9-12 class sizes were becoming too big. “We tried to hold off,” Casteel said in 2019. “We think this is the only real viable alternative.” But as the walls started going up for the new campus, the pandemic started triggering enrollment declines in Chandler Unified and most other school districts. Chandler’s average daily membership, a state metric used to measure enrollment for reimbursement, has dropped by nearly 2,000. Federal pandemic relief funding has eased the district’s financial distress caused by such a large exodus of students, but CUSD is still hoping to attract the pupils it lost during the pandemic. Families shouldn’t be concerned about ACP being a campus reserved for advanced students, Principal Rob Bickes said, since the school’s class offerings are designed to accommodate every student. “We offer the full gamut of courses,” he said, “from on-level to AP.” Bickes has been with ACP ever since the school originated in 2007 as an extension of Hamilton High. The school’s first class consisted of about 80 middle school students who took their courses out of a rented classroom at a local church. As the years went by, ACP added more grade levels and the school’s enrollment got big enough to warrant relocating it to a bigger facility on Erie Street in 2012. The school’s size and reputation has continued to grow over the last decade with ACP earning honors from the U.S. Department of Education for its commitment to academic excellence. Several of the school’s alumni have earned awards and scholarships for devising innovative projects or patenting new inventions. Each student expects to have a personalized education when they come to ACP, Bickes said, and the new campus provides more space for students to pursue their individual passions. ACP will continue to strive for excellence from all of its students, the principal said, and make each pupil feel like they have a voice in their own education. For ACP students, the new school will

offer more classrooms, more sports fields and more space to host the types of activities their counterparts have enjoyed for years. ACP‘s homecoming game will no longer have to be outsourced to another CUSD campus, since the new campus has plenty of room for athletics. Orchestra and band concerts can now be performed in a 600-seat auditorium, instead of relying on the Chandler Center for the Arts stages. “It’s going to be exciting to have everything here on our campus,” said Bickes. Students will have the opportunity to enroll in new course offerings ACP could not teach at the Erie campus because of space limitations, Bickes said, while continuing to enjoy all the same extracurricular activities the school has had for

years. The 290,000-square-foot campus includes a media center for new photography classes, lab space for biotechnology courses, a weight room for athletic training, and baseball fields that will allow ACP to start its first season of baseball this school year. The layout of the campus comes with some space reserved on its east side for any future development ACP may wish to consider. Bickes said the school’s staff will still attempt to maintain the close-knit, connected community that had existed on Erie Street. “We’re not changing what we do because we want to make sure we continue building a family and having a school community,” the principal said.

Enrollment at the old Erie school was about 880 by the end of the last school year. The new campus is expected to welcome 1,200 pupils when classes begin on July 21. Up to 3,000 students could occupy the new campus, but ACP currently doesn’t intend for the school to get that big. Bickes said the district wants to keep enrollment lower than Chandler’s five other high schools in order to preserve the rapport ACP students enjoy with their teachers. “You’re not going to see (ACP) become one of the larger-type high schools within the district,” Bickes said. Bickes said any student living in the district is invited to attend ACP because state law now requires all districts to maintain an open enrollment policy. One of ACP’s hallmarks has been its distinction as being a school that nobody is forced to attend. There were no boundaries dictating who enrolled at the school. But the school’s new campus comes with some changes to that. In addition to being an open-enrollment school, ACP must accept any students living in a twosquare-mile boundary positioned near the campus. The integration of students from the old campus with the new ones living within the assigned boundaries has been one the highest priorities for staff in the months leading up to the school’s grand opening. Bickes said the school has been organizing orientation events and pairing new students with a mentor who can familiarize them with ACP culture and customs. The idea is to get them to feel invested in their school, the principal said, and make them feel like ACP is their school too. ACP is additionally attempting to broaden its appeal to a wider cross-section of students and considering changing the “college” portion of the school’s name. Bickes said he’s considering replacing the “C” with “career/college readiness” because the school wants to prepare students for whatever path they want to pursue after graduation.

Gilbert commander settles suit against town BY CECILIA CHAN GSN Managing Editor

ilbert has settled a lawsuit with a fired police commander for $250,000 in wages, overtime and other compensation she had earned during her employment. In turn, Carrie Candler agreed to drop her suit that claimed she was wrongfully fired after complaining of unfair treatment and she is not to apply for work with the town ever again. Both sides also agreed to pay for their own attorney fees, according to the settlement agreement signed June 23. Candler also agreed to not disclose the terms of the agreement or the negotiations leading up to the agreement. If Candler is asked about the lawsuit, she can only respond by saying the matter has been resolved, the agreement states. Candler in her suit, filed in October, sought damages, including attorney fees, back pay, lost benefits and rein-

statement of her position. She hired an attorney a month after she was fired and filed a claim for $822,000, which the Town rejected, leading to the suit. The veteran cop was fired in April 2020 from the Gilbert Police Department after two years and four months on the job. She was hired from the Scottsdale Police Department, where she had worked for 15 years. Candler had alleged she was fired after she complained of discrimination and unfair treatment against her as a woman and that the chief and assistant chief did nothing to address her concerns. She also named the Police Department, Chief Michael Soelberg and former Assistant Police Chief Randy Brice in the suit. Brice is now the police chief for Queen Creek. The Town denied Candler’s allegations of wrongdoing. Candler’s friend at the department, Assistant Chief Jeff Thompson, lost his job over the matter. Thompson resigned quietly from the

department last December after he was notified of a misconduct investigation against him, and in February he voluntarily surrendered his peace officer certification. According to an internal investigation by Phoenix Police, Soelberg confronted Thompson in June 2020 about possible conversations Thompson had with Candler over work-related topics and her firing. Thompson admitted to Soelberg that he communicated with Candler after she was fired but denied any conversations regarding her termination or work-related topics, the investigative report stated. Soelberg then gave Thompson a direct order to cease all communication with Candler related to the department. He also advised Thompson against having any personal conversations with Candler due to the ongoing litigation. “However, the Gilbert Police Department learned AC Thompson continued

to communicate with Ms. Candler after this directive and continued to discuss her termination and other confidential official department business,” the report stated, adding the two also discussed an ongoing internal and criminal investigation involving a Gilbert officer. Candler recorded phone conversations and saved text messages she had with Thompson between April 23 and Dec. 11, 2020. These materials were provided to the Town’s legal counsel through the discovery process involving Candler’s pending litigation. Some of Thompson’s audio recording included him telling Candler that there was nothing to support the reason for Candler’s firing. And “if I knew what they were gonna to ahead of time with you, I woulda tipped you off,” according to a transcript of a call Thompson made to Candler. In another conversation with Candler,

reflected in steady increases in group membership, but said the state can do better. “Arizona is growing by leaps and bounds in major areas, but still struggling out there in the hinterlands,” said Jerry Asher, vice president of the Tucson Electric Vehicle Association. He and others said the biggest challenge in Arizona, as in much of the country, is the lack of readily available charging stations for electric vehicles. Currently, there are 385 public fastcharging plugs and 1,448 non-fastcharging plugs in the state, said Diane Brown, executive director with the Arizona Public Interest Research Group Education Fund. And many of those “are not available 24 hours a day, often making EV charging less convenient to the public,” she said. According to the website plugshare. com, Maricopa County has 1,103 charging stations.

Gilbert has 23 public charging station ports and most of them are level 2 charging ports and 60 percent offer free charges for electric cars, according to chargehub.com. Evstationslocal.com reports a total of 156 EV charging stations within a 10mile radius of downtown Gilbert. SRP rebates bring city costs down to less than half of the cost associated with installing the charging stations. “SRP’s EV-related incentives promote improved electric vehicle infrastructure across the Valley which supports our EV drivers and increases EV adoption,” said Kelly Barr, Chief Strategy, Corporate Services and Sustainability executive at SRP. “The reward is lower carbon emissions and improved air quality for years to come.” And in order for the state to hit 10 percent EV ownership by 2030, one scenario outlined by Arizona PIRG, the number of charging stations would

need to grow significantly. “According to the Arizona PIRG Education Fund, to support a future in which 10 percent of Arizona’s vehicles are EVs – a conservative target for 2030 – Arizona will need more than 1,098 fast-charging plugs and 14,888 Level 2 plugs,” Brown said. This will require local, state and federal policies to make “EV charging accessible, affordable, and easy,” she said. But advocates said there are several things working in their favor. Jim Stack, president of the Phoenix Electric Auto Association, said many of the current plug-ins charging stations are at stores and libraries, places “where you would stop anyway.” “We have a good charging infrastructure and it keeps getting better,” Stack said. One way Asher said Arizona could be more EV-friendly would be to add

or a mostly red state, Arizona has a lot of blue-state company when it comes to states ranked by electric vehicle ownership, according to recent government data. Arizona had 28,770 registered electric vehicles as of June, according to the U.S. Department of Energy’s Alternative Fuels Data Center, the seventh-highest number among states. When ownership is measured per 1,000 residents, Arizona inches up a notch to sixth place, with just over four electric vehicles per 1,000 people. That rate put Arizona just behind Oregon and Colorado and just ahead of Nevada and Vermont. California was in the lead by far, with 425,300 registered electric vehicles, or one for every 10.7 residents. Arizona EV enthusiasts welcomed the ranking, which they said they have seen

She added that the public will have other opportunities to weigh in on the proposed Paseo. “Additional in-person meetings are anticipated early this fall with the dates, locations and times to be determined,” she said. While some on social media questioned the growth the project would bring into the area, others embraced it. “Love this so much!” one woman said. “As someone who lives near downtown and works daily right in the heart, I think this will be a huge improvement.

Gilbert officer still in hospital after hit-run BY CECILIA CHAN GSN Managing Editor

n off-duty Gilbert Police officer remains in the hospital three weeks after his personal motorcycle was rear-ended by a hit-run driver in north Scottsdale. Sgt. Tom Edgerton at the time of the June 27 accident was reported to be in critical but stable condition with injuries, including a broken neck. “Sgt. Edgerton remains hospitalized and is continuing to receive treatment for his injuries,” police spokeswoman Brenda Carrasco said last week. “Due to the extensive treatment he is undergoing, he will be out for the foreseeable future.” Arizona Department of Public Safety troopers later arrested Colton James William Sattler, 23, of California on suspicion of aggravated assault and leaving the scene of an accident.

Sattler’s court-appointed attorney entered a not guilty plea on his behalf on July 2, according to court documents. Sattler was released on a $3,500 bond on June 27 with conditions that included not possessing any drugs without a valid

prescription, not driving a motor vehicle without a valid driver’s license and proof of a local address. A trial date is set for Dec. 9. The accident occurred at 1:23 a.m., Sunday, June 27 on the southbound 101

freeway in north Scottsdale, according to DPS. Scottsdale Police officers located Sattler after they responded to a 7-11 where a clerk called for a vehicle check. A police officer on routine patrol responded to the convenience store at 1:47 a.m. and reported seeing a gray 2020 Toyota Tacoma with extensive collision damage parked in the parking lot. Sattler and another man identified as Reier Gilbertson, 21, were standing outside the pickup truck. The officer asked if the two were involved in a collision on Loop 101. Sattler, who had minor bleeding to his left knee and elbow, confirmed they were and told police he was the driver. The store clerk also identified Sattler as the driver as he had witnessed the truck entering the parking lot. According to the police report, Sattler

and Gilbertson had been drinking while watching a Phoenix Suns game at a Tailgaters Sports Bar & Grill in Peoria near 83rd Avenue and Loop 101. Because Gilbertson had more to drink, they decided to have Sattler drive Gilbertson’s truck to another friend’s house in the East Valley, police said. “As they approached the McDonald Road exit on the Loop 101, a vehicle cut them off and Colton collided with the rear of the vehicle,” the report stated. “The vehicle then ‘took off.’ Neither was able to describe the other vehicle that was involved in the collision.” Sattler stopped the truck in a gore lane and then drove to the 7-11, where the clerk provided them with water, bandages and ointment. Sattler initially told cops he had two drinks, a vodka Redbull and a glass of wine. Upon further questioning, he admitted to having four drinks, two vodka Redbulls and two glasses of wine, the report stated. “He advised he had not used any drugs

that night,” the officer noted. “Colton was fidgety during my interactions with him and seemed to be unable to sit still. I also observed his eyes were bloodshot and watery.” After an officer informed the two men that the collision they were in left a motorcyclist in critical condition, Sattler “seemed confused by this but was still unsure and unable to describe the vehicle he collided with.” The Tacoma had extensive damage to the front end, to the driver side rear-quarter panel and the driver-side rear tire was shredded, according to police. Also, it appeared all the airbags in the truck had deployed. DPS troopers, who had the truck’s front grill from the accident scene, arrived to the 7-11 and conducted their investigation leading to Sattler’s arrest at 1:55 a.m. Gilbert Police Department Benevolent Fund set up a GoFundMe account for Edgerton with the goal of raising $50,000. As of last week, $24,309 was donated.

Thompson complained about Soelberg ordering him not to talk with her, calling it an “unjust” order because it violated his freedom of speech. Investigators reached out to Thompson, who provided a written statement in which he admitted he should have stopped all communications with Candler after Soelberg ordered him. He denied disclosing confidential information involving the administrative investigation. Thompson’s statement added he never meant to be misleading or untruthful and that his conversations with Candler were personal and meant to remain private. “I don’t disagree things I said were inappropriate and hurtful, however, I did not make those comments publicly,” he said. Thompson made disparaging remarks about some town and police administrators. Thompson also had advised Candler not to call or text him at work because

her name popped up on caller ID on his personal cell. He added he was going to hide his phone at work but would check it periodically, according to transcripts. Investigators concluded that Thompson lied to Soelberg when he told the chief that he had not discussed with Candler work-related topics or her firing. They also found that Thompson disobeyed a direct order from Soelberg and violated a number of the department’s standard of conduct policies. Soelberg in a memo to Internal Affairs stated had Thompson not resigned, he would have fired him.

The first of at least eight weekend closures this summer for I-10 or US 60 begins Friday night, July 23, when westbound I-10 is closed until Monday morning between the San Tan/South Mountain freeways interchange and US 60. The eastbound stretch will be closed the following weekend starting July 30 at night. With even more significant disruptions a certainty over the next three years, ADOT already wants commuters to prepare by studying and then taking different routes – especially if they work in downtown Phoenix. The highway agency is going to unprecedented lengths to help them do that. “We very much want to do everything that we can so that motorists, visitors, businesses can plan in advance to lessen the impacts,” Noetzel said. “We’re doing The Broadway Curve looked a lot different in the early 1970s. (ADOT) things with this project that we’ve never done before.” Albert put it another way: “ADOT is doing some really significantly different things than they have in the past and it’s because of the size and the scope and the location of this project.” For the first time, ADOT has developed a project-specific mobile app. It has prepared an advertising blitz on TV, radio and in newspapers. It’s ordered up billboards and is even putting warnings and reminders on gas pumps. It has created a home page for the project at i10broadwaycurve.com where people can stay up to date and get the mobile app. ADOT representatives have been briefing dozens of chambers of commerce and other economic development organizations from Glendale to Gilbert, holding town halls and planning to open a field office for the general public at 3157 E. Elwood St., Suite 100, in Phoenix where anyone will be able to drop by Monday through Fridays just to chat about the work. And ADOT has set a virtual open house on the project for 5:30 p.m. Aug. 4 at i10broadwaycurve.com/meetingsandpresentations. All this, Noetzel explained, is being This chart illustrates the components of the I-10 Broadway Curve Imdone “to create that awareness and provement Project, a four-year effort to improve safety and efficiency for make sure that people know where to tens of thousands of Valley motorists.

get resources.” Indeed, ADOT has spent two years talking with people about the project, she said, because “one of the underlying tenets of our communications approach in this is no surprises.” ADOT calls the Broadway Curve project “the first major urban freeway reconstruction project in Maricopa County.” Its major components include: • Widening I-10 to six general purpose lanes and two high-occupancy-vehicle, or HOV, lanes in each direction between US 60 and I-17 and adding a fourth

general purpose lane in each direction between Ray Road and US 60. Adding collector-distributor roads that parallel I-10 between Baseline Road and 40th Street to separate through-traffic on I-10 from local traffic entering or exiting the highway. Unlike frontage roads along portions of the existing freeway system, these CD roads will not intersect with perpendicular roads. Rebuilding the I-10 interchange with SR 143 to improve traffic flow and create direct connections to and from SR 143 for drivers in the I-10 HOV lanes. This part of the project will reduce lane changes and often hair-raising weaving between Interstate 10 in the Broadway Curve and on State Route 143 at University Drive. When work is completed, drivers on westbound I-10 will exit I-10 near Baseline Road and use the CD roads to access northbound SR 143 and reach the airport. The entire SR 143 and I-10 interchange will be replaced by ramps that make a direct connection for drivers from the general and HOV lanes and eliminates the existing cloverleaf ramp that connects southbound SR 143 with eastbound I-10.

The project’s environmental assessment shows ADOT anticipates seven sound barriers ranging between 14-18 feet, with two along I-10 from the US 60 to Ray Road and the others north of US 60.

telligent transportation system. Of the project’s total $776.6 million cost – less than half the cost of the South Mountain Freeway – $676.6 million will be spent on construction, with $615.6 million going to the developer, a joint venture of Pulice Construction, FNF Construction and Flatiron Constructors that goes under the name of Broadway Curve Constructors. The remainder of the project’s total cost covers the intelligent transportation system signal upgrades, right-ofway acquisition and paid advertising aimed at motorists. “Design-build” also means that the contractors are “encouraged to use innovation and develop alternative concepts to reduce project time and impacts to the traveling public and community while construction is underway,” ADOT notes.

Better now than later The Broadway Curve project covers roughly a third of the 31-mile I-10-/I-17 corridor that the Maricopa Association of Governments – the Valley’s major highway planning group – and ADOT call “The Spine” because it handles 40 percent of all Valley traffic daily. The Spine comprises 37 access points, 40 bridges, 26 pump stations and 25 arterial streets that become snarled as a result of traffic jams on I-10 and I-17. Combined daily east and westbound traffic already comes close to 300,000 vehicles through the Broadway Curve daily, and that number is expected to increase as the Valley’s population steadily grows. ADOT Director John Halikowski at one point noted, “Interstate 10 is a key commerce corridor that supports Arizona’s efforts to succeed in the global trade market and a vital transportation route for millions of people who live in, work in and visit our state every year. Improving safety and reducing congestion will truly benefit everyone who relies on our highway system, as well as thousands of businesses along the I-10 corridor.” Though the pandemic significantly reduced traffic volume, no one expects that to remain the case. So-called “traffic crawls” are creating

a phenomenon called “peak spreading,” which basically means rush hours get longer. If nothing is done, one ADOT study warns, by 2040, “congestion will spread to other times of the day, and in some portions of the corridor will extend to more than 12 hours.” The 2018 study estimated it would cost at least $2.5 billion to cover all the improvements it recommends along the entire 31 miles of the Spine Corridor. If nothing was done with the Broadway Curve, ADOT’s environmental impact study notes, it “would result in increased traffic congestion in the area as growth and development continue. This could impede travel to and from destinations and make it difficult to attract or retain businesses in and around the study area.” The study predicts: “By year 2040, the traffic operations along the I-10 and interchanges in the study area would further degrade with the growth indicators forecasted for the foreseeable future. Without major improvements, the I-10 in the study

area (the area covered by the Broadway Curve project) would suffer degraded traffic conditions, travel delays, and challenging mobility for moving goods, services, and people through the study area.” By doing something now, the study notes, “improved mobility and access along the corridor could foster economic development by attracting new business development and more attractive housing options and support social connectivity between neighborhoods and areas within the study area. This would represent a minor, positive, permanent secondary impact.” The gain after pain After the project’s pain comes what ADOT sees as a gain – not just for the 1,200 construction jobs it will create but also for the future of more than 4,600 businesses, including 50 of the region’s largest employers. Noting that I-10 “is part of a key commerce corridor that connects ports in California with markets in Texas and beyond,” ADOT’s environmental

study states, “The improvements will make I-10 a more favorable route for commercial truckers whose travels through the region support our local businesses.” ADOT envisions the project will accommodate current and planned system linkages for bus services using I-10, facilitating more ridesharing and rapid transit use. It also promises to make driving safer by reducing lane changes, stating “carpoolers bound for Sky Harbor International Airport will no longer need to cross several lanes of traffic to get from the HOV lane into the SR 143 on-ramps.” Then there is the project’s overall impact on traffic, which ADOT describes thusly: “With the addition of new travel lanes, HOV lanes and the CD roads, capacity on I-10 will increase by 60 percent.” “Adding capacity to I-10 will reduce congestion and travel times. Greater efficiency means drivers can get to and from the places they need to be in less time. According to an economic evaluation conducted by MAG in 2020, the improvements will save motorists 2.5 million hours annually otherwise spent in traffic – totaling $130 million a year in time savings. These savings are due to quicker commutes made possible by the improvements vs. slower travel times without them.” For motorists whose stomach knots in traffic, the study puts it another way: “The current average speed on eastbound I-10 between I-17 and US 60 during afternoon rush hour is 32 mph. The average speed is projected to increase to 40 mph by 2025 with the improvements. Without improvements that speed limit is projected to decrease to 29 mph by 2025.” But first, the pain The environmental study says that while motorists can expect “temporary delays and slower speeds,” access to businesses and neighborhoods in the area “would be maintained at all times. “Traffic delays and slower speeds would be experienced equally by ev-

eryone who lives or passes through the study area; therefore, all population segments, including low-income and minority populations, would be affected to the same degree by construction,” it says “Traffic operations would remain challenged, and congestion would become more prominent, particularly in the peak periods,” the environmental study anticipates. During her briefing for Tempe residents, Albert said US 60 will be closed on weekends between the I-10 and Hardy Drive but only in one direction at a time as asphalt is scraped. “This project will impact all of us, everyone who lives, works or drives to the project area,” Albert said. “In addition to the numerous freeway and ramp closures, there will also be significant overnight work that could be noisy. There will be temporary impacts on business access. There will be detours that increase driving distance and time. There will be slower traffic and will be delays. “Unfortunately, there is no other way to deliver a project like this without having that kind of a construction.” ADOT anticipates the I-10 will be shut down in both directions in the project area at least 50 times over the next four years. Most of these closures will occur on weekends though some also will occur during the work week. Citing the replacement of the entire I-10/SR 143 interchange, ADOT spokesman Tom Hermann said, “That’s going to be for people who work downtown a headache.” “We try to time our closures and lane restrictions and that kind of stuff to nights and weekends,” Hermann said. “But when you’re taking out a bridge over I-10, then that can’t always be possible.” ADOT is particularly concerned about how those closures and lane restrictions will not only impact other freeways but also arterials and even side streets in communities – particularly Mesa, Tempe and Chandler. Motorists throughout the southern half of the East Valley and even those heading to or from the West Valley will be encouraged to use the SanTan Loop 202/South Mountain freeway corridor.

“You’ve got that bypass that is available to you as an alternate route because one of the things we’re working on right now with the cities of Tempe, Chandler and Phoenix and the town of Guadalupe is detour routes that aren’t going to dump interstate traffic on the local streets,” Noetzel said in an interview in June. Indeed, when asked whether motorists might logically bail and head for local East Valley streets, Noetzel replied, “They will but we won’t tell them to.” “One of the detours that we’re looking at actually would have them use the 101 and then back onto the 202,” she said. “So, those are times when we want people to know that. If you have to drive this section of the project area, you’re going to have to allow yourself maybe an extra 20 or 30 minutes because you’ve got this detour.” But the detours, closures and lane restrictions the project will generate explain why ADOT hopes even occasional users of the freeways and byways impacted by the project will download the mobile app and pay attention to the other channels of communication it is deploying for the duration of the work. That’s especially true for people driving to or from Sky Harbor. Noetzel said ADOT and its construction partners have been talking with airport officials for more than year – and not just about the impending impact of the project itself. “We need to start talking now about educational campaigns on getting people to the airport once construction is complete,” she said, though she stressed, “Our first goal is to get them to the airport while construction is going on.”

Gila Community’s new casino plan sparks concerns in Chandler GSN NEWS STAFF

he Gila River Indian Community’s announcement of plans to build a fourth casino has sparked concerns among some south Chandler homeowners about possible traffic problems. The community earlier this month announced that the new casino will be built on tribal land south of the intersection of Gilbert Road and the Hunt Highway and will take about two years to build. The announcement triggered calls to the city and social media chatter about the need for road infrastructure improvements in the area and the only thing that’s certain is Chandler won’t be paying for any. Community Governor Stephen Lewis said the new casino “will bring additional revenue, security, and critical services to Community members. In addition, we anticipate being able to add hundreds of new jobs that Community members can take advantage of, and we expect that many of those will be filled by Community members, just as was the case at the Vee Quiva Casino.” The GRIC announcement gave few details about the casino plan, but Chandler city Councilman OD Harris told the SanTan Sun News, “What I am hearing is 580 acres of land to be develop into a worldclass casino, golf course and a hotel with spa amenities.” And Harris added, “We are still working on learning the details of their master plan. The Native nation have been keeping things close to chest.” The vague plans Harris has heard about mean the new casino could be on par with the Wild Horse Pass complex, although the tribe is working to turn that area into a 3,300-acre sports and entertainment complex that could rival the Talking Stick Entertainment District just south of Scottsdale. The first step toward that expansion was the construction this year of the new stadium for the Phoenix Rising soccer team. The project lead, Sunbelt Holdings of

Scottsdale, and the tribe’s development arm, Wild Horse Pass Development Authority, envision additional hotels, wellness and event centers, an outdoor amphitheater for concerts, sports facilities, outdoor recreation and parks, restaurants, retail establishments and an office park. Sunbelt Holdings President John Graham told the SanTan Sun News the development, located just south of the Loop 202-I-10 intersection, will fill a “missing corner” of the East Valley in terms of entertainment. Meanwhile, the south Chandler casino also would join two other GRIC casinos, Lone Butte and the relatively new Vee Quiva. The new casino comes with recent approval of a new gaming compact between Arizona’s Native American tribes and the state. “The Community gave up its fourth Casino in the 2002 Gaming Compact, based on the promise that there would be no new casinos in the Phoenix Metro Area,” The Gila River Indian Community said in its announcement. “That promise was broken, as you know, and we fought hard to ensure that we could reclaim our right to build a fourth Casino as part of these recent negotiations.” The Gila River Indian Community covers 372,000 acres and is home to the indigenous O’odham (Pima) and Pee Posh (Maricopa) people. Harris took to Facebook earlier this month in an effort to soothe some residents’ rattled nerves – and also provide a dose of reality. “The City of Chandler respects the sovereignty of the Gila River Indian Community and wants our residents to recognize that the city has no jurisdiction over the Gila River Indian Community or its casino enterprises,” Harris wrote. “We don’t know the proximity of the casino to the existing intersection, but tribal officials have described it as com-

parable in size to the Vee Quiva property near Loop 202 and 51st Avenue,” he added, telling residents: “While the City of Chandler will not be involved in the review or approval of the Gila River Indian Community development, we will communicate residents’ concerns and share plans for city infrastructure so tribal officials can make informed decisions regarding the development of the site. Chandler has no current plans to expand Gilbert Road and Hunt Highway, but we know that traffic impacts are one of the concerns expressed by residents. “We will coordinate with the Gila River Indian Community, as we would with any new development, to address improvements that may be necessary to roadways owned by the City. As we obtain more information about the project, we will share it with Chandler neighborhoods and residents near the site.” The GRIC arm-twisted the Arizona Department of Transportation two years ago to build a special interchange on the South Mountain Freeway for the Vee Quiva Casino, purportedly in return for allowing the state to widen the I-10 through reservation land down to Casa Grande. That South Mountain Freeway interchange is an elaborate skein of ramps that clearly will allow access to and from future development around that casino. The community’s announcement of a fourth casino also comes as sports bettering edges closer to a reality in Arizona. Gov. Doug Ducey agreed to the new gaming compact and formally approved sports wagering earlier this year. While sports books were expected to launch Sept. 9, a report by sportshandle. com, a new site that monitors the world of sports betting, said that launch date

Doug Ducey’s office sent the regulations back with more questions and comments than expected,” the website reported. “Now, rather than publish the proposed rules and immediately open them for public comment, the ADG will make revisions and open the draft rules for stakeholder comment before opening a public-comment period.” It also quoted an Arizona gaming of-

ficial as saying, “ADG is on track to meet the targeted ‘go live’ date of September 9th for event wagering in the state. That said, the Department is finalizing details for draft event wagering/fantasy sports rules to ensure completeness and accuracy, which will be available for public viewing and comment as soon as this process is complete.” Sept. 9 marks the start of the NFL season. Sportshandle.com noted that the U.S. Department of the Interior has already approved the state-tribal Class III gaming compact, clearing one hurdle to sports betting in Arizona. “But the ADG has not yet released information about the application pro-

cess, which means potential operators have not been able to apply yet,” the website said of Arizona. The state department has up to 60 days to approve or deny a license application and sportshandle.com noted that July 11 was the last day that an application could be submitted to the state for review and be approved in time for a sports book to launch in Arizona on Sept. 9. “Given the current delay in rolling out proposed rules, the timeline is getting tight,” the website noted. It is unclear how many gambling operations will be ready to go by the time Sept. 9 rolls around. Arizona’s new law allows for statewide mobile and retail sports betting. Up to 10 commercial venues and 10 tribal casinos can be licensed for both digital and retail wagering, while an additional brick-and-mortar wagering only licenses are available for horse racetracks and OTBs. So far, Caesars (Arizona Diamondbacks), DraftKings (TPC Scottsdale), and FanDuel (Phoenix Suns) have market access. Caesars also partners with the Ak-Chin Casino via its Harrah’s brand, which the tribe plans to extend to sports wagering. In addition, BetMGM is rumored to be on the verge of a licensing deal with the Gila River Indian Community. “Though it’s not official yet, BetMGM would be able to offer online sports betting services to users throughout the state in addition to providing retail options for patrons of the three Gila River Casinos located in Wild Horse Pass, Lone Butte, and Vee Quiva,” sportshandle.com reported earlier this month. “It’s an ideal partner for BetMGM as the tribe and its retail casinos are well positioned within the state, with a great presence in the Phoenix area.”

Pandemic cut traffic congestion in Phoenix area hoenix area commuters got 36 hours of their lives back last year. That’s the amount of time Valley residents did not have to spend sitting in traffic, as the COVID-19 pandemic led to sharp drops in commuting and subsequent declines in traffic congestion, according to a new national report. Cities across Arizona, and across the U.S., saw drops of 50 percent or more in the number of hours and dollars they wasted sitting in traffic, as well as a reduction in gasoline burned while idling in a traffic jam, said the report last week by the Transportation Institute at Texas A&M University. “Peak or rush hour traffic aren’t quite as bad as they were,” said Eric Anderson, executive director at Maricopa Association of Governments. “What that means is we have more people not commuting during rush hour as we did prior to the pandemic which reflects the fact that a lot of people are still working from home.” But experts say drivers should enjoy it while they can, as numbers have already started to creep back up toward previous levels. While it may not immediately reach the levels of 2019, the report said that 2021 “will see faster congestion growth than any time since 1982.” But in 2020, the time people spent stuck in traffic was at the lowest level since 1988, when a typical U.S. commuter spent an extra 26 hours behind the wheel. Last year, the number fell to 27 hours,

a 50 percent drop from the 54 hours stuck commuting in 2019, according to the 2021 Urban Mobility Report. Luke Albert, associate research engineer with the Transportation Institute, attributed the drop to the number of people teleworking, which spread the number of cars and trucks on the highway out over the course of the day. As the report put it, while cities were “focused on ‘flattening the curve’ to address the pandemic health emergency, they also flattened the travel-delay curve.” For example, the report said that commuters in the Phoenix-Mesa region who drove to work between 6 and 10 a.m. and drove home between 3 and 7 p.m. spent 36 fewer hours stuck in traffic in 2020 than they did in 2019, a 59 percent drop.

The numbers were similar in Tucson, where the 21 hours spent stuck in traffic last year was down 58 percent from the year before. While smaller cities across the state had shorter commutes, they all saw similar declines in delays from 2019. In Avondale-Goodyear, commuting delays fell from a total of 23 hours to 14 hours last year, while commuters in Flagstaff and Prescott “wasted eight hours sitting in traffic in 2020,” according to the report. Every city in the state saw at least a one-third decline in hours spent in traffic congestions. It was not just time that was saved. Nationally, the report said commuters burned an extra 3.5 billion gallons of gas in 2019 from traffic that was not moving at “free-flow speeds,” but that

number fell to 1.7 billion gallons last year. Congestion-caused greenhouse gas emissions fell from 36 million tons to 18 million tons. The cost of all that sitting adds up: The report said traffic congestion cost Americans $190 billion of extra fuel and lost time in 2019, compared to $101 billion last year. That’s a drop in per-commuter expenses from $1,170 to $605. Anderson said he expects “higher telecommuting” that started during the pandemic to continue into the future, as many employers and employees have found they can work remotely. Encouraging people to take up alternative work schedules by working remotely – partially or fully – would “take vehicles off the system and help our (Arizona’s) congestion levels,” he said. Additionally, many people commute downtown from the West Valley for work every day. Creating more job opportunities in the West Valley would “reduce long-distance commuting patterns and take pressure off the system,” Anderson said. That is one way the state can prepare for the “return of congestion problems” predicted in the report. But while experts see traffic congestion returning, Albert said it is not likely to reach pre-pandemic levels – right away. “We definitely have noticed and expect increases in 2021,” Albert said. But “we don’t expect it to be all the way back to 2019” because it’s unclear how many people will continue to work remotely, he said.

charging stations at hotels, RV parks and shopping centers. In Tucson, he said, the Culinary Dropout and Jersey Mike’s restaurants have already begun offering free electric vehicle charging to customers, Asher said. While they push for more charging infrastructure, advocates said improving technology and lower vehicle expenses

are on their side, helping to sway more Arizonans to purchase an electric vehicle in recent years. “The batteries are getting better and lower in cost as well as longer-lasting,” Stack said. He said an EV uses about 50 cents of electricity to cover the same number of miles a gas-burning car gets from a gallon of gas – currently selling

for $3.12 a gallon in Arizona, according to AAA. In addition, the state is offering incentives to electric vehicle buyers. “In Arizona we get reduced registration on electric vehicles,” Stack said. “It’s about $15 a year compared to $300-700 a year for gas and diesel cars.” Electric vehicle owners also “get 24/7

access to HOV lanes, even with one person,” he said. Stack also noted that Arizona is now home to three eclectic vehicle manufacturers: Lucid, which makes cars in Casa Grande; Nikola, which will make trucks in Phoenix and Coolidge; and Electra Meccanica, which will build the threewheeled SOLO commuter in Mesa.

ASU’s Project Humanities helps people in dire straits BY PAUL MARYNIAK GSN Executive Editor

very other Saturday morning, a group of volunteers, many from Chandler, join Dr. Neal Lester in a special way of helping and connecting with people experiencing homelessness. As founding director of Arizona State University’s Project Humanities, Lester leads Service Saturdays, as the volunteers gather on the Human Services Campus in downtown Phoenix to distribute clothing, shoes and hygiene products to men and women who have found themselves without a home. The biweekly effort is “Humanity 101 in action,” Lester said, referring to Project Humanities, which is marking its 10th anniversary this year. The award-winning university initiative, Project Humanities, “strives to be a leader in local, national, international conversations about the breadth, depth, and value of humanities study and humanist practice and understanding across disciplines and communities,” according to its website. Part of the mission is to help the university and local communities “in talking, listening, and connecting” – which is what Service Saturdays is all about. When ASU Project Humanities’ homeless outreach began a few years ago, the volunteers headed down to the Human Services Campus from 6:30-8:30 a.m. to support 150-200 adults experiencing homelessness. They came from different parts of the Valley and had stored donations in garages, then used a tarp to lay the folded items for a pop-up marketplace along the 12th Avenue and Madison sidewalk. We initially called it ‘Spontaneous Day of Service,’ said Lester, “but the idea of

denied that fundamental dignity: respect, kindness, compassion and empathy.” But it also gives the volunteers a chance “for deep self-reflection and critical reflection on class, race, gender, age, sexuality, ability, mental health, wellness, suffering, loss, and humanity,” he added. Which is why the outreach isn’t a matter of dumping a bunch of stuff on tables and letting everyone have at it. “We want to be personal shoppers and not just, having people wander around getting stuff,” Lester said.

It continued during those many months of closure largely as the result of an incoming ASU junior and poet named Austin Davis. The Mesa youth would visit with those experiencing homelessness downtown as part of his participation in the Arizona Jews for Justice’s outreach program. Each week Davis would write down what was needed by the people he met and then meet with Project Humanities volunteers at its warehouse where donated items are stored. With his shopping list in hand, Davis collected the requested items and then deliver them to the needy people he had met. There are a variety of ways to help Project Humanities’ outreach program. Its next in-person outreach – which follows COVID-19 protocols – is Saturday, July 24, from 8:30-10 a.m. at the Human Services Campus at 204 S. 12th Ave. in downtown Phoenix. People can drop by to be personal shoppers to those in need. People can also help sort donated items on Fridays – again with safety protocols in place. They also can donate requested items either by themselves or through organizing efforts in their workplaces, community groups, churches and the like. And, of course, they can contribute much-needed cash to purchase toiletries and other necessities. To mark its anniversary, Project Humanities also is designating each month of this year for collecting a particular necessity. This month it’s bottled water, Gatorade and crystal light packs. Next month it’s new underwear, toiletries and refillable travel-sized bottles. Details on how people can help are at projecthumanities.asu.edu/service-Saturdays.

Gilbert business boasts high-quality matcha BY SYDNEY MACKIE GSN Staff Writer

ince June 18, the newly opened Matcha Grove has provided Gilbert residents with premium Japanese matcha and a variety of gluten-free menu options. Matcha is finely ground powder of specially grown and processed green tea leaves that is commonly served in east Asia. The green tea plants are grown in the shade for about a month and the stems and veins are removed during processing. Matcha Grove owner Rocio Sheyko decided to open the café – located 81 S. McQueen Road in the Oasis at the Islands strip mall – because of the difficulty she faced finding high-quality matcha and fresh gluten-free baked goods ever since she and her family moved to Gilbert four years ago. “After cutting out coffee and turning to matcha, I was always on the lookout for matcha and those who sold it in town, but I just couldn’t really find a good quality type of matcha,” Sheyko explained. The pandemic forced a delay in her opening plans, but finally acquired the storefront in March, then spent two months preparing it for business. “It was a lot of labor of love,” she said. The quality of the beverages has always been a focal point of the business, said Sheyko. She ensures all her matcha is ceremonial grade, the highest quality available. She also sources it from a provider in Japan, a country widely believed to have

The gluten-free bakery offers a range of products from avocado toast to waffles and snickerdoodles, all made in-store daily. “My family is gluten-free and if we ever needed to get any gluten-free food, we always had to travel to Phoenix or

Scottsdale,” Sheyko said. “Gilbert obviously had coffee shops with some gluten-free items but there was no place 100 percent gluten-free.” Sheyko utilizes every tool at her disposal to find new and interesting recipes for the store, often tweaking online techniques. She then creates them for her family to get their stamp of approval before serving them to the public.

Being a mom, that’s really important to me to serve other mothers out there.” Sheyko hopes the arrival of Matcha Grove indicates big things for Gilbert. “Gilbert is becoming kind of a bigger city, if you will. I think that is bringing in a lot of trendy shops that are needed in the area, equal to the amount of growth these areas are experiencing,” she said.

Keep an eye on shifting housing market here BY MINDY JONES GSN Columnist

s the monsoons rev up to chase the afternoon sun, Gilbert homeowners have got their eye on the storm as they watch interest rates fluctuate, inventory rise and rapid appreciation give way to a shifting sellers’ market that is as much fun as watching your neighbor’s trampoline fly over the wall. Who would have thought that in the year following the global pandemic, we would be reporting some of the most as-

tronomical gains in property values that the state has ever seen? There definitely have been clear signs that we’d be in a sellers’ market for a bit. And there have been even clearer signs that we’re slowly making our way out of it for months now. If we take a look at some of the numbers in Gilbert, you might be surprised to find that we actually have more inventory on the market than we did last quarter –but still not quite as much as we had last year or even two years ago. We’ve had about a 10 percent increase in inventory since March but are still down 35 percent year over year – a significant improvement from our previous 60 percent deficiency in inventory.

Meanwhile pending contracts have been declining for weeks, signifying some dampening of demand as skyrocketing prices cause shell shock and the summer weather once again returns with its seasonal impact on the market. Days on market continue to fall as a reminder that houses are still selling, properties are still appreciating, and we are still in a sellers’ market because there still are not enough homes for people to buy. Even with faltering demand and the

expected rise in inventory due to an end to the moratorium on evictions and the forbearances offered during the height of COVID-19, most sellers have an equity position of greater than $100K – which has kept foreclosures to less than 1,000 Valley-wide as compared to 45,000 in 2009. Builders continue to adjust their selling strategies to capitalize on the 35 percent appreciation the resale market

Buyers expecting the bottom to fall out of the market because of a rash of short sales or an excess of new construction will likely be sorely disappointed. There is no shortage of perspectives on the current housing market. But the rate of new listings hitting the market and the percentage of houses listed that actually sell are some of your best predictors for how long we’ll continue to see a rise in prices and multiple offers. We are already seeing the rate of showings going down, the number of offers declining and a change in the concessions buyers are offering and sellers

While national news will likely pick up on a decline in average dollar per square foot over the last few weeks, properties under $1 million have continued to see an increase in their numbers, topping $246.94 average list price per square foot last week. Overall Valley numbers are declining as the number of luxury listings typically bought and sold in the summer declines and their high-dollar per-square-foot averages are pulled out of the total.

sures you aren’t getting a sales person, but rather a strategist who understands the options and can empower you to make the best decision for you and your family. The next few months will prove pivotal as we move from a frenzied sellers’ market into more of a balanced market. Depending on the rate of new listings and the pace at which buyers return to the market – understanding the opportunity to take advantage of more

inventory and more negotiation room before interest rates rise – we could see a dramatic change in selling conditions by the end of the year. Remember: more negotiation room and even more price reductions do not mean cheaper houses – that ship has sailed for now. It means that a family making the median income in Greater Phoenix can afford more than half of what is on the market today. Just like the palo verde tree that didn’t

DaVonte’ Neal making positive impact at Higley BY ZACH ALVIRA GSN Sports Editor

aVonté Neal can easily recall his favorite play from his high school career at Chaparral in Scottsdale. Neal and the Firebirds were in the semifinals his senior year against Centennial in 2011. He had yet another dominating performance during the regular season in all facets of the game. Centennial had success against Chapparal and in the final play of the game, junior running back Jalen Ortiz began to hit the outside but Neal saw him begin to go into a throwing motion. Neal retreated into coverage, caught up with the opposing receiver and picked off the pass. Neal’s interception sealed the game. Neal came to Higley based on a recommendation from Cal Berkeley special teams coach Chaparral won 31-30 and clinched its Charlie Ragle, who coached him at Chaparral.

“Talking to him about what we have, I believe he is perfect for us,” Zubey said. “The unknown benefit at the time was his energy. Even after my two Monsters per day I don’t have as much energy as him.” Zubey has already seen Neal’s impact on the program. He’s the first coach or player to congratulate one of the Knights for a play made during competition or practice. He’s also heavily involved in the weight room, racking weights and spotting Higley players. His energy has become contagious for the defensive backs and the rest of the team. Players gravitate toward him and recognize his athletic ability. In many ways, the players also look up to him for additional guidance in regard to reaching the next level. One of those players, Nijrell Eason, one of the top defensive backs in the state, said he and some of his teammates pulled up their new coach’s highlight tape from high school. “All aspects. Offense, defense, special teams, everything,” Eason said. “He’s energetic and that gives all of us energy. It helps motivate us to go make plays.” LaRon Tarkington, another assistant on Higley’s staff, competed against Neal growing up. The two played against each other in high school but had always remained friends. Neal ultimately aims to coach at the next level but remains focused on the task at hand: coaching Higley to have one of the best secondary units in the state. “We are definitely going to fly around the ball,” Neal said. “We have guys who want to hustle, make plays and guys who want to win. I’ve gotten to know who these players are over the summer and from what I’ve seen so far, I think we can expect some big things from them.”
