Harkins opens in Goodyear State-of-the-art innovations include Arizona’s widest movie screen

Moviegoers have a new destination in the West Valley as Harkins Theatres opens a complex in Goodyear filled with the industry’s latest innovations.

“This is our absolutely most state-of-theart theater,” said Dan Harkins, owner of the company that operates more than 490 screens at 33 locations.

Harkins said the 78,000-square-foot Estrella Falls 16 that opened on Oct. 13 will serve a “booming” West Valley.

“It’s going to handle a lot of people,” he said.

The centerpiece is Cine 1 XL, which Harkins officials said is an evolution of the Cine Capri theaters the company is known for.

Gold curtains in Cine 1 XL evoke a movie palace, opening to reveal an 83-foot-wide curved screen that Harkins said is the widest in the state — wider than the 70-foot Cine Capri screens at Harkins’ Tempe Marketplace and Scottsdale 101 locations.

Sound in Cine 1 XL is delivered by a 62-channel, 150,000-watt Dolby Atmos 3D sound system, with dozens of speakers lining the auditorium.

To prevent sound from bleeding between theaters, the company builds 8-inch concrete walls between the auditoriums, according to Mike Bowers, president of Harkins.

Harkins said the Goodyear location is one of only a few theater complexes in the country outfitted entirely with laser projection, which he said offers a brighter picture with more vibrant color.

The 421-seat Cine 1 XL is the largest of the16 auditoriums, with others varying in size for a total of about 2,000 seats, Harkins said.

All auditoriums feature electronically controlled leather reclining loungers that Harkins introduced at the first of its Valley theaters last year at Camelview at Scottsdale Fashion Square.

has a full bar lined with a couple of dozen stools, where Harkins said film fans can enjoy a drink and talk about movies.

The western flavor of Billy Moore Days should remind Avondale residents of the city’s heritage, but the return of the festival also poses challenges for organizers to create an event that lives up to the nostalgia for earlier festivals.

The first Billy Moore Days since 2008 opens Friday with the city’s annual Resident Appreciation Night and continues Saturday and Sunday along Western Avenue in historic Avondale.

“We’ll never be able to recreate what Billy Moore Days was when it was operating at its peak, but we can bring back some memories and copy as many of those experiences in a more modern state,” said Kirk Haines, who is working to organize the event as part of his job as director of Avondale’s Parks, Recreation and Libraries Department.

Key to recreating elements from past festivals is the parade and carnival, Haines said.

“Those were the cornerstones,” he said.

The carnival will open Friday night and continue through Sunday. Saturday morning’s parade will kick off a full day of events that include entertainment and fireworks, all staged in time to mark Avondale’s 70th anniversary of incorporation as a city.

“It’s sort of a birthday celebration,” Haines said.

Named for the pioneer credited with establishing the community originally known as Coldwater, Billy Moore Days was an Avondale tradition for decades until city-sponsored events became the victims of budget cuts caused by the economic downturn.

But residents didn’t forget the festival, petitioning for its return.

Haines said his department got the message (See Billy Moore on Page 4)

Parade grand marshal has roots in region

by Glenn Gullickson staff writer

Belen Moreno remembers the Billy Moore Days parade as a highlight for her family for years until the event was discontinued.

On Saturday, as the festival is being re-established, the former longtime Avondale educator will be grand marshal of the Billy Moore Days parade.

Moreno said her family used to pile into the back of their truck parked on the parade route to watch the floats, horses and high school bands go by.

“The kids enjoyed it,” she said. “It was a lot of fun.”

Sometimes, her children, and later the grandchildren, were in the parade.

In the days before this year’s event, Moreno was practicing her parade wave for the ride down Western Avenue.

“It will be fun seeing all the people I know,” she said.

Moreno, 81, is a familiar figure in the community after working as a teacher and administrator for 37 years at Avondale Elementary School — “the old one before they built the new one,” she said.

She’s also well acquainted with the history of the West Valley as a child of the area’s farm labor camps, a subject that she researches as a historian and co-author of an upcoming book.

The oldest of six children, Moreno was born in 1935 in Marinette, a town that no longer exists in the area of what’s now Sun City and Surprise.

When her father was hired as an irrigation supervisor for Goodyear Farms, the family moved to one of five camps established in 1929 near Litchfield Park that provided housing for hundreds of workers who labored in the cotton and alfalfa fields.

Belen Moreno “Camp life was wonderful,” Moreno remembered. “Everybody knew everybody in the camps. Everybody helped each other. Each camp was like a small community.”

Residents grew vegetables and raised chickens and turkeys and danced in the dirt street for celebrations, such as when soldiers came back from World War II, Moreno said.

Harkins (From Page 1) but service is at the counter. Bowers said the company’s philosophy is to avoid risking disrupting a movie with servers in the auditoriums.

He said the Goodyear theater will employ 125 to 150 people.

The Goodyear location is the third Valley Harkins theater to offer reserved seating, with patrons selecting their seats at screens at the box office.

In a first for a Harkins, those who purchase tickets online can skip the box office and go paperless by having their smartphones swiped by the ticket-taker.

Opening weekend blockbusters are likely to be booked in Cine 1 XL, but Harkins said the advent of digital projection allows films to be moved between larger and smaller auditoriums depending on audience demand.

Harkins acknowledged that he’s heard from local customers who want more independent movies screened, but he said those films seldom do well in the West Valley.

“When customers come to the box office, they’re voting for the best movie,” he said.

Nevertheless, he said he would like to develop an audience for the independent films.

“It’s in our DNA,” he said of the company that was founded by his father in 1933 and has grown into the largest family-owned theater company in the U.S. The company was well-known for the original Cine Capri theater, which opened in 1964 in central Phoenix and was torn down in 1998.

The company used the Cine Capri name as an homage for other large-screen theaters, but is switching to the Cine 1 moniker for future projects as it expands to areas not familiar with Cine Capri’s history.

The Goodyear theater is the chain’s westernmost location of 19 theaters in the Valley, including Gateway Pavilions in Avondale. Harkins also operates seven other theaters in Arizona, four in southern California and one each in Colorado, Oklahoma and Texas.

The Goodyear theater near West McDowell Road and North 150th Avenue is surrounded by acres of vacant land that is expected to be the site for the Southwest Valley’s first regional shopping center, Estrella Falls.

The project has been on the drawing boards for a decade, with 2 million square feet of shopping, dining and entertainment as well as public spaces, residential, office and hotel developments.

AN IN-LOBBY BAR offers moviegoers cocktails, wine and beer at the newly finished Harkins Theatres Estrella Falls 16 in Goodyear.

The theater is east of the Market at Estrella Falls, a retail “power center” that opened in 2008 as the first phase of the development.

Roots (From Page 1) “There was a lot of music,” she remembered.

Families would go to Avondale for haircuts and to see movies. A bus would carry the children from camp to school.

Her first year of school was a turning point. It was in what she called “Americanization class” — where the children learned English — that she met the boy who would become her husband, Rudy, and when she decided what she wanted to do.

“I wanted to be a teacher. That was the dream,” she said.

But by the time she reached high school, Moreno came to terms with the realities. Young women at the time grew up to help their mothers or get a job. She had taken typing and shorthand classes.

That’s when an influential high school teacher, the late Frances Ybarra Amabisca, confronted Moreno with a question: “What do you really want to do?” she asked.

When her answer was “Be a teacher,” Moreno remembered the reply was, “You are going to school and you are going to be a teacher.”

A scholarship was arranged and Moreno’s parents eventually agreed, so the 1950 Litchfield Park High School graduate was off to Flagstaff to attend Northern Arizona University, where she also worked in the college’s public relations office and edited the yearbook.

Moreno said she was the first Litchfield Park graduate of Mexican heritage who went to college.

“Thank God, there have been a lot more after me,” she said.

Back in the Valley, she married, started substitute teaching, then landed a job at Avondale Elementary — one of just two schools in Avondale at the time — where Amabisca, a former Billy Moore grand marshal herself, eventually became principal.

“I loved teaching third grade,” Moreno said. “I loved the kids.”

She was lured out of the classroom with the offer to work as the school’s migrant director, a job that appealed to her with the opportunity to work with families.

She later became the school’s federal program director, public relations director and assistant principal before retiring 16 years ago.

Along the way, she earned a master’s degree at Arizona State University.

Not far from historic Avondale, Moreno and her husband have lived in the same house since 1964 that’s filled with photos of their three daughters and one son, seven grandchildren and three greatgrandchildren.

On the kitchen table, Moreno is working on her latest project co-authoring a book on the farm camps with Cruz Dominguez, to be titled Los Campos De Litchfield Park.

Drawing heavily on photos, it will document the lives of families who lived in the farm labor camps, which closed in 1986.

Moreno hopes to complete work on the book next month.

Billy Moore (From Page 1) earlier this year of what he called the City Council’s “keen interest” in re-establishing the festival.

That gave planners less time than normal to create one of the city’s larger events, which is expected to draw 10,000 to 15,000 people this year for what could again become an annual festival, Haines said.

Helping to plan the event was a citizens committee with folks who remembered past festivals, including members of the Southwest Valley Chamber of Commerce, the agency that organized Billy Moore Days from 1954 until the city took it over in 2005.

Stacey Lindsay of Goosebump Marketing and Events, a Phoenix-based company that is helping to stage the event, said the western theme will be on display during the weekend.

But instead of the beard-growing contests and beauty pageants popular during former festivals, there will be a western wear contest for youths and a hollering competition.

The following is a guide to this year’s Billy Moore Days:

Resident Appreciation Night/GAIN Billy Moore Days will start with Avondale’s Resident

Appreciation Night from 5 to 8 p.m. Friday.

Information booths will give residents an opportunity to become familiar with city services and programs, including public works, fire/medical, police and neighborhood and family services.

In the spirit of the festival, the displays will showcase a western theme.

Those attending can meet city staffers and members of the City Council, participate in raffles and giveaways and enjoy stage entertainment.

The event will also include the Avondale Police Department’s annual Getting Arizona Involved in Neighborhoods, or G.A.I.N., which encourages neighborhood efforts to prevent crime.

Visitors can meet police officers, get a look at police vehicles and tactical gear and view K9 unit demonstrations.

Parade The parade will step off at 10 a.m. Saturday beginning at Litchfield Road and Western Avenue, and travel east on Western Avenue to Fifth Street, then turn north and end at Agua Fria High School, 530 E. Riley Drive.

Leading the parade will be the Agua Fria High School marching band and color guard and grand marshal Belen Moreno, a former Avondale educator.

Among dozens of parade entries will be floats, equine units, dance groups and cars carrying local celebrities and political figures, as well as the Wells Fargo stagecoach

and the Arizona Public Service Co. birthday balloon.

Former Miss Billy Moore Days pageant winners and past parade grand marshals will also be part of the parade.

Announcers at Fourth Street and Western will be longtime local radio and TV personality Dave Pratt and Cheryl Cook Todd, owner of AZ Firearms and Pot of Gold, who was Miss Billy Moore Days in 1984. John Safin, president and CEO of the Southwest Valley Chamber of Commerce, will be the announcer at Central and Western.

Festival After the parade, Western Avenue and Sernas Plaza next to the Sam Garcia Western Avenue Library will become the site for a street festival, with arts and crafts vendors and entertainment on Saturday.

Dr. Buck’s Wild West Show will feature stuntmen doing shows and shootouts, as well as magic and comedy with a western theme and tales with historian cowboy Lee Anderson.

Activities for children will include a “branding station” for face painting, a “craft coral,” gold panning, a rubber band gun shootout, roping and bow and arrow games.

An antique car show will be on display on Western Avenue.

A display on Avondale history will be at the Sam Garcia Western Avenue Library. Volunteers from the Three Rivers Historical Society will staff the display from 5 to 8 p.m. Friday.

Capping Saturday’s events, members of the City Council are expected to take the stage before a fireworks display marking Avondale’s anniversary year.

Entertainment Three headliner acts will be among performers on the stage at Western Avenue and Sixth Street.

• Halocene, performing Friday night, is a femalefronted, Phoenix-based pop and rock band that has toured nationally and opened for Blink 182 and Fall Out Boy and performed at the Vans Warped Tour.

• Str8Up, performing on Saturday, has been playing around the Valley and elsewhere for 25 years. It covers every genre and specializes in old school, R&B and Latin favorites.

• The Sugar Thieves, performing on Saturday, has been playing blues, country, folk, gospel, rock and jazz since 2006.

The Phoenix band has played in the U.S., Mexico and Europe, shared the stage with B.B. King, Willie Nelson, the Flaming Lips and Lucinda Williams and recorded five albums.

Other performers will include Studio Dance 21 on Friday evening. All-day stage entertainment on Saturday will include AZ Dynasty Cheer & Dance, Kimberly Pearl and One Summer from Alice Cooper’s Solid Rock Foundation and Ballet Folklorico Esperanza. Line dancing instruction will also be offered.

The carnival is the only festival event on Sunday.

A man and his two young daughters were found shot Sunday night at a home near 94th Avenue and Elwood Street in west Phoenix in what investigators believe was a murder-suicide, officials said.

The victims have been identified as Audrey Arismendez, 5, and Ariah Arismendez, 4. Jerad Arismendez, 36, was identified as the alleged shooter, said Sgt. Mercedes Fortune, a spokeswoman with the Phoenix Police Department.

Officers responded at about 10 p.m. for reports of gunshots in the neighborhood, Fortune said.

A woman then called police and said she was

concerned about her ex-husband and their two daughters, who were at a home in the area, Fortune said.

Officers entered the house and found a man and two girls shot inside a bedroom, she said.

Jerad and Audrey were pronounced dead at the scene, and Ariah died at a local hospital, Fortune said.

Officers believe he shot the girls before taking his own life, she said.

The investigation is ongoing.

Mother of missing Buckeye boy a no-show in court for custody fight

by Donna Rossi KPHO/KTVK

The mother of a Buckeye boy missing for nearly three months was a no-show in court Oct. 14 for a dependency hearing regarding the missing boy and his two siblings.

Crystal Wilson is the adoptive mother of missing 10-year-old Jesse Wilson, his twin sister and their older brother. State child safety workers removed the two other children from the home when Jesse went missing in July.

Wilson told police she believes the boy slipped out of the second-story window and ran away. It was apparently something he had done in the past. Police said they have not ruled out foul play.

The dependency hearing was initiated by the Arizona Department of Child Safety in a first move to terminate Wilson’s parental rights to Jesse, if found, and his two siblings.

When Wilson did not show up for the closed-door hearing, the judge entered a default on her behalf, which will allow the process to continue.

Cynthia Lauderdale is also a party to the case, and was at the hearing. Lauderdale claims to be the biological grandmother of the three children Wilson adopted after the state took them away from Lauderdale’s daughter.

She is attempting to gain visitation to the two children currently in DCS care, and eventually would like to get custody of them.

Meanwhile, Buckeye Police Chief Larry Hall said while public and media attention has decreased regarding Jesse, his investigators are vigorously working the case.

“We’re currently awaiting the crime lab results and we believe that will bring forensic value to the investigation,” Hall said.

He would not elaborate on what items were submitted for testing, but during the early stages of the investigation, detectives were seen taking evidence bags from the Wilson home that contained items from inside, as well as Wilson’s car.

Attempts to reach Wilson Oct. 14 were unsuccessful.

Hall said his investigators have not talked with Wilson since her initial interview and a follow-up early in the investigation. He also confirmed that she has not reached out to anyone in the Buckeye Police Department for updates on the case or to offer any additional information.

“I’m very confident in our investigators that are working this investigation and I’m very confident in the direction they’re going with it,” Hall said.

View report

Police are investigating after a 1-year-old boy died from a possible drowning Oct. 11 in Buckeye, officials said.

Officers responded to a home at about 9 p.m. near 241st Avenue and Yuma Road in Buckeye for an unresponsive child, said Sgt. Jason Weeks, a spokesman with the Buckeye Police Department.

Firefighters took over lifesaving measures and the boy was transported by helicopter to Phoenix Children’s Hospital, where he was pronounced dead, Weeks said.

The Buckeye Police Department’s criminal investigation division is investigating the cause of death, which at this time has been listed as a possible drowning, Weeks said.

The investigation is ongoing.

Avondale police seek sexual assault suspect

by Emily Toepfer assistant editor

Avondale police are asking for the public’s help in identifying a suspect in a sexual assault case from last month in the Garden Lakes community in Avondale.

The assault occurred at about 11:30 p.m. Sept. 26 at Kimberly Park, near Garden Lakes Parkway and Lakeshore Drive, said Sgt. Thomas Alt, a spokesman with the Avondale Police Department.

The unidentified suspect is described as a Hispanic man in his late 20s to early 30s with dark wavy hair, brown eyes, an athletic build and a tattoo of a star on his right forearm, Alt said.

The suspect was last seen at the park as the victim fled the area for help. He was said to have been wearing a yellow bandana on his head, white tank top and black pants, Alt said.

If anyone has information about the suspect or assault, contact the Avondale Police Department at 623-333-7324.

Anyone wishing to remain anonymous can contact Silent Witness at 480-WITNESS (948-6377).

OUR VIEWPOINT

COLE’S OPINION — Scranton Times-Tribune

EDITORIAL

Not to get all scientific, but let’s get all scientific Avondale’s decision to use a new method for its annual Citizen Satisfaction Survey had us confused until we reached out to the city and asked what was up with that?

For the past few years, Avondale has conducted its own survey, allowing all residents of the city to take part, whereas its sister city, Goodyear, has used a service that mails the city’s survey to a random sampling. Until now, we thought Avondale’s method was more fair, more inclusive than Goodyear’s, since everyone was invited to take part.

But it wasn’t scientific.

Last year, 1,116 Avondale residents took the survey during the month of October. Surveys could be found on the city’s website and at city events. But there was no way to guarantee that all 1,116 residents didn’t come from the Cashion area of Avondale. Or the Garden Lakes community. Or Old Town. Just three examples of the diversity that makes up Avondale.

Different areas of the city will undoubtedly have different issues and concerns.

Old Town residents are probably thrilled with their library services since the Sam Garcia Western Avenue Library is within walking distance, but Sage Creek residents might not be since they’re actually closer to the Litchfield Park Branch Library than either of their city’s libraries.

Rancho Santa Fe residents are probably more than satisfied with their city’s Parks and Recreation Department since the city’s flagship park, Friendship Park, is only about a mile and a half away. But Rio Crossing residents may not be as they have to travel nearly five miles to get to Friendship Park and seven to Festival Fields.

Historic Avondale residents might not have very nice things to say about the city’s streets since they’ve been living in a construction zone for what seems like forever, and even though the end result will surely be worth it, it can be hard to see the forest for the trees when they’re living in it day in and day out.

Just as there was no way to tell if all 1,116 survey responses came from the same area, there was no way to tell that they didn’t all come from residents who were dissatisfied enough with a certain aspect that they sought out the survey. We all know more people will lodge a complaint than a compliment.

Kudos to Avondale for contracting with the National Citizen Survey to conduct this year’s Citizen Satisfaction Survey.

The results will not only be scientific, but because the NCS conducts surveys in 350 jurisdictions across 46 states, including Chandler, Gilbert, Goodyear, Mesa, Peoria, Scottsdale, Sedona, Sierra Vista and Surprise, Avondale will be able to compare its results against other communities’.

The NCS has mailed 1,500 surveys to a random sampling of Avondale residents across the entire city. (The random sampling is what makes it scientific.)

We implore each and every one of you 1,500 residents to complete the survey honestly and in its entirety. You represent all of Avondale. Your responses will help guide the city as it maps out next year’s budget.

School taxes are too high

my property taxes increased $97.30 from last year.

Of that there is already a $2.12 increase from West-Mec. If the proposed bond passes that would add another $12 to my property taxes.

I could get really sarcastic and ignorant at this point but I will try to control myself.

This county cannot support mini campuses on every corner like gas stations.

If this program is of such value to employers then let them fund all of these pie in the sky adventures.

Ralph Baer Goodyear

Editor: The school taxes are unbelievable. $3.5 billion was already approved in May. The direct quote from the pamphlet follows.

“The proposition, if approved, would give an extra $3.5 billion to the state’s schools over the next 10 years. It would also provide $50 million annually over the next five years and $75 million annually for five years after that. Passage would also settle a five-year-old lawsuit over inflationary funding for schools.”

Just the education portion of

I have had enough already Editor: The election is almost here.

This time it is not enough to vote against crooked Hillary Clinton, but also against all Progressive everywhere. Why? Because Progressives are using political correctness to control our speech, which translates into controlling our thinking and behavior. By definition it is totalitarianism.

These left wing lunatics are really very tolerant, as long as you agree with them. If not they

will absolutely try to destroy you . They will call you a bigot, racist, a homophobic and any other slurs so as to intimidate you to toe the line. By so doing they are taking our freedoms away from us Black lives matter is the most hateful and racist group in America. They are a bunch of thugs who will not say a damn thing about Blacks killing Blacks in Chicago because those murders do not fit their political agenda ! They would rather riot, loot and destroy innocent people’s property. They, not the police are the real criminals.

American universities use to teach students how to think objectively. Today they have become political correct prisons. Progressive administrators are enforcing political correctness and punishing those students who disagree with them. PC student campus groups are more vindictive and vicious than the administrations.

Nobody will make me say Native American rather than Indian. I also prefer negro or black man to person of color.

Hooray for the Washington REDSKINS ! I also affirm my God given conviction that homosexuality is an abomination in the eyes of God Almighty. The Word of God trumps the opinion of any celebrity or idiot sports super phony like LeBron James. Truth (See Letters on Page 7)

Did Penzone get Soros money?

Editor: I read with great alarm that Paul Penzone has a champion throwing money in support of his race against Sheriff Arpaio. It was reported that George Soros has contributed $300,000 to a political group who promotes Penzone and is critical of Arpaio. A quick check of Mr. Soros and his agendas are very concerning. He supports the legalization of all street drugs and prostitution. He supports the federalization of police, but yet funds groups who promote division and in some cases even violence in a quest to cause civil unrest. This is all documented and easily available information online.

I will be very interested to see if Penzone has accepted campaign donations from this person or any organizations funded by him. If this is the case, he is unfit to be running for a position that entails law and order, and voters should be very wary.

U.S. founded by Christians, Jews Editor: Dear (Cary Hines) Editor, In the Sept. 28, Paper It seems that Our Favorite Democrats attack you personally. Also we have the Antichristian writer. Now it is plain to see that an Editor that is a Republican (or at least writes like a Republican) would be a target for these people. What they seem to forget is that this Nation was founded by religious Christians and Jews. True there were some Deists. But even those Deist made use of some parts of the Bible!

Trolls could be fairy dwarfs or could it be that it is trolling for other would be Christians? Perhaps you have heard of fishing for men! In the land that I live in no one forces you to be a Christian, but I have been accused of bad mouthing Atheist.

Let us look at words: Democrats and Republican. The last four letters of each what do you get? Rats and I can … Now that I have offended half the people, it

Republicans will eat crow Editor: After the November election there won’t be any crows left.

The Republicans will have eaten them all, gone finished.

Years from now when my little girl goes to school and asks me what a crow is, I will tell her it was a big black bird that when it was in the sunlight it was a glossy black and shining. And when my little girl asks if we will ever see them again, I will tell her no, the Republicans saw to that.

And then she will ask me why the Republicans ate them all.

Well they don’t know any better honey, and thats why we don’t have any crows left.

They are on the endangered species list, come November.

Vote for John Carnero Editor: The upcoming run-off election for the City of Tolleson Council is very important. A vote for JOHN CARNERO is needed to continue positive support for the citizens of Tolleson. John has been a long time resident of Tolleson, knows the city and resident needs through his experience serving on the High School Board of Education and current position with the City of Glendale. The John A. Carnero Sports Complex, west of city hall, is one example of his vision for the community. John Carnero brought forth the idea of the Wolverine-Knight foundation, now in its thirty fourth (34) year of providing scholarships for graduates of the six (6) high schools of the Tolleson Union High School District #214. A vote for John Carnero is greatly appreciated.

Charles A. Landis Former Tolleson Union High School District superintendent

Storage facility is a bad idea Editor: I urge the Goodyear City Council to say no to the special use permit request for a 2-3 story storage facility in Estrella Mountain Ranch.

There are numerous reasons why a business like this does not belong in this location. What is obvious to residents called to action is the safety of our children and active members of our community who walk and bike to Starpointe and hike on the adjacent trails. The increase in truck traffic poses a danger to people making their way to the pools, basketball courts, and exercise facilities where this commercial building is potentially slated.

A business such as this is better suited for main roads accessed by the interstate where pedestrian traffic doesn’t occur.

There are storage facilities within several miles and appropriately placed in Goodyear. A commercial venture of this nature has no business butting up to neighborhoods in our community. Please share with us one master planned community such as ours where a retail storage facility exists.

Increased traffic, necessary lighting for a business of this magnitude, and non-resident users seeking storage for potentially hazardous and possibly illegal materials are also a grave concern.

Your job is to make sound decisions when it comes to the safety and security of your community members. We expect you to hear our concerns. Your job isn’t to rubber stamp every project that comes down the pike.

Homeowners in Estrella have a financial stake in the appropriate planning of our area. We don’t want to be guinea pigs to see if this might work. We want you to stand up for us.

The only possible location suitable would be along Estrella Parkway. Somewhere walkers and bikers aren’t subjected to risk. Say no to the special use permit for this commercial business in Mountain Ranch.

Judy Adams Goodyear

Vote no on Prop. 205 Editor: Many ads that exploit the sale of marijuana in CO are untrue.

Here are the facts: Pot is sucking up more of Denver’s ELECTRICITY than bargained for. 45% of the increase is due to the Cannabis industry.

Indoor marijuana cultivation is highly energy intensive. It consumes 6 times as much energy as the pharmaceutical industry and 8 times the energy per sq. ft. as an average commercial building.

The grow lights run 24/7 and WATER is used throughout the day to fertilize and mist plants.

6 Million $$ in pot revenues is distributed to local governments, But the cost of increased law enforcement, drugged-driving

incidents, fatal crashes, loss of productivity and a huge spike in gangrelated crime negates the benefit.

Teen drug-related school explusions are on the rise. Cannabis is an intoxicant and proven dangerous to adolescents who use regularly. Brain development is affected in young people.

Denver’s homeless population has increased and tourist dollars are going more to pot than natural wonders.

Many tourist towns including Colorado Springs have banned the sale of marijuana for the above reasons.

People need to know the truth.

Ann Carter Goodyear Editor’s note: The West Valley View received about 25 letters to the editor addressing Hickman’s Family Farms and the Save Tonopah Oppose Poultry Plant (STOPP) group within the span of about a half an hour on Oct. 7. Due to space constraints, the View has chosen to print the first two letters received — one opposing Hickman’s and one supporting Hickman’s — and publish the rest online only.

Public’s wellbeing comes first Editor: The article “Hickman rejects petition” after reading it I would have to agree with the people that Hickman shouldn’t be able to vote on anything in the county if he puts his own business before the people. Even though he may be the chairman of the Maricopa county board of supervisors he should take action on the publics complaints about Hickman’s Ranch because that is what the people are expecting him to do that is his responsibility to the people even if that is his business. If the ranch is causing air pollution, then it may cause community health issues and the communities health should come before the business. This should have been resolved already especially since it has been brought up three years in a row, obviously people are not happy with what is happening so why doesn’t the board take a stand and serve the people like they are supposed to.

Business wellbeing is not more important than the publics wellbeing.

Robert Figueroa Tolleson

Workers need Hickman’s

today, RIGHT NOW. To begin with, one issue surrounding our community in in the west valley is the minimum wage.

For people to complain about things that bring food to many people’s tables isn’t correct.

People who make a living out of these egg ranches need these jobs, since they are the only ones willing to take up these dirty jobs. It is in no one’s place who only benefits from the products to decide whether other people’s jobs should be taken away or not. Unless people are willing to offer minorities who are taking on these jobs to transfer and move into better jobs then so be it. It should be a cooperation’s right and a member of the company like Mr. Hickman to take in decisions without being held against his company or against the people he represents.

Eliseo Penate Marroquin Tolleson

Shame on crooked Hillary Editor: If Hillary has to dig up dirt on Trump that happened over 11 years ago, she should know by now that she should look no further than her own bedroom for scandal material. Lying Bill was impeached for lying under oath about having sexual relations with Monica, but he finished his 2nd term. Now, you voters want to put the most corrupt family in the country back into the white house for 8 more years of sex scandals. You can go into any locker room at any sports stadium in the country and listen to the same kind of language that Trump was caught saying, bragging about what he thinks of beautiful women. The highly paid ball players do the same kind of bragging to their fellow sports buddies. Some even drug and rape women they pick up in bars.

To coin a phrase from Hillary, “what difference does it make now? ” Sex lives don’t have a thing to do with how well you can run a country. As for professional bragging ball players, their sexual prowess has nothing to do with how well they play ball. Vote for the ability of nominees to run the country. The media is responsible for dredging up dirt to try to ruin lives. IF they force Trump out of the race, you will see riots on election day.

The words of Donald Trump Editor: What bothers you more, horrible words, or babies being torn apart as they pass thru the birth canal. Payed for by you and me?

What is worse filthy words, or watching people die in real time.

Telling the Marines “To stand down” because the details of the raid would embarrass Hillary and the President? I’m sure you Remember Benghazi? There was no aid from the U.S.A. Even after 600 requests for aid.

What offends you more? giving Iran 400 million dollars for hostages with more to come. As Iranian officers are seen buying arms with our money to kill our soldiers, or locker room talk?

What is worse A man with a filthy mouth or losing the Supreme Court? We will have a court that votes against freedom of religion (1st amendment) and freedom to bear arms.(2nd amendment) if Clinton is elected. Is this why our forefathers pledged their fortune, their lives, their sacred honor for.

God forbid!

This women lost 600 Billion tax dollars while in office, and doesn’t know where it is! She committed treason with her e mail! ( Any other government worker would be in prison).

Destroyed 32,000 e mails after the congress requested them.

How about open borders? any one can come in ISIS, drug dealers, murders, rapist, as well as family’s. we must provide housing,education, food,and

legal assistance. Jobs will be lost to lower wages. How long before the government starts cutting S.S. Because people we are broke.

It’s your call.

I hate locker room talk, but more than that I love my country and the Constitution. I also love babies. I don’t want to pay to kill them!

Remember to pray for the states that have been flooded, and the families of those who have died.

Jean Levandowski Litchfield Park

Trump didn’t lie Editor: Hillary has at least 4 books written about her corruption Donald has none — Hillary is confermed a liar and careless by the FBI Hillary asked “ what does it matter ” concerning the deaths of 5 Americans in Bengauzy. Donald didn’t lie about his sexual words from a decade ago he said “ I was wrong” also he is sorry then said I will be a better man for it.

I wouldn’t pass judgement too soon I know Jesus said “ the one without sin cast the first stone” are you without sin I don’t think so.

Charles Schweda Avondale

Now y’all upset Editor: Donald Trump has been a vile, racist, sexist, demagogue since the day he entered the race. He has played to the lowest redneck, KKK loving, neo-Nazi element of the Republican Party. He has denigrated blacks, Hispanics, Asians, and Muslims relentlessly.

No problem, the Republicans think “those” people are less than human anyway. They say why are “you people” so sensitive and always trying to be so politically correct. The man has a right to free speech. However, all hell broke lose last Friday when the infamous tape of him and good old boy Billy Bush surfaced showing his love of molesting white women. Oh Lord, say it isn’t so, Donald Trump has threatened the “purity of white womanhood”. All of a sudden everybody has gone all John Wayne on him and strapped on their six guns. They be putting on their white hats and jumping on their white horses to ride to the rescue.

They gotta save Miss Pollyanna Pureheart from the evil clutches of Snidely Whiplash. If it was not so pathetic, it would be funny.

The hypocrisy is thicker than dog do-do. Chickens Coming Home To Roost. God is Good.

Vote yes on Prop. 205 Editor: Making marijuana a felony makes it so profitable cartels take over. Criminality and enforcement costs increase, legitimate profits and tax revenues disappear while unregulated street drugs can kill children.

Private prison investors are the main legal beneficiaries of marijuana being illegal. They’re guaranteed a profitable 90% occupancy and make money housing 125+ nonviolent offend-

ers in open bay dormitories with a minimally paid corrections officer. This only works when inmates are nonviolent which is how marijuana affects most users.

Public schools also need the tax revenue. Legislators were just told told new Corporate Tax cuts passed last year are going to create a big deficit — which almost certainly means more education cuts.

Prohibition mainly helps cartels and private prison investors.

Vote yes on TUHSD override Editor: As the Mayor of Avondale, I am incredibly proud of the support our community gives to our local school districts. I have been a longtime supporter of teachers and education. As the first Kids at Hope city in the nation, Avondale has seen the impact that dedicated teachers have on our kids. It is important to me that we protect these education opportunities now and into the future. That is why I am voting YES for the Tolleson Union High School District’s upcoming budget override.

Quality education is critical to our ability to support our community, attract jobs, and train our future workforce. Quality schools help protect our property values and reduce crime. We need to invest in our school system to protect our quality of life.

Supporting this override is the right thing to do for our community. Our children deserve the best education we can provide.

We need to continue to improve funding for our students and ensure that they are college and career ready. The investment we make in their education will pay dividends well into the future.

On November 8th, we can do our part to support our students and protect our quality of life by supporting the override. Please support education by voting “YES” on the Maintenance & Operation Override on November 8th. The override will: Keep class sizes manageable Retain and attract the highest

qualified educators Increase opportunities for our students through College and Career Readiness Provide Dual Enrollment for those students who want to earn college credits while in high school Provide accelerated learning opportunities through Honors and Advanced Placement courses Join me in supporting the Tolleson Union High School District override.

Kenn Weise Avondale mayor

Vote yes on BUHSD override Editor: As mayor of the City of Buckeye, I understand how important quality education is to the future of our community. That’s why I’m supporting the Buckeye Union High School District’s request on the Nov. 8 ballot for an override of the Maintenance and Operations Funds.

Voter approval of this measure would provide additional funding to preserve class size, hire and retain current staff, maintain existing extracurricular activities, sustain student safety measures and provide for staff development.

It’s important to note that this approval would not mean a new tax on our residents; it would only focus the existing tax dollars to be spent on those measures.

I urge voters in the Buckeye Union High School District to vote “yes” on the M&O Override measure on the ballot. It will help provide the educational opportunities our young people deserve and that our community’s future depends on.

Two West Valley school districts have contested races for governing board seats in the Nov. 8 election.

Four people are running for three four-year seats in the Buckeye Union High School District and six people are running for three four-year seats in the Litchfield Elementary School District.

Early voting begins today.

Uncontested races for the remaining 12 West Valley districts were canceled Sept. 21 by the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors.

The following is the Buckeye and Litchfield candidates’ unedited answers to a questionnaire sent by the West Valley View.

issues that are specific to Arizona public schools. I am focused on effective communication, transparency, and solution oriented problem solving. I currently sit on other Boards and Commissions with the Arizona Department of Education, West Valley Task Force, and City of Goodyear.

2. What is the top issue the district faces, and what action would you take to address it?

The top issues the district faces include employee retention and funding for quality programs and opportunities for students. The actions I would take to address these issues include first listening to administrators, teachers, staff, parents, and students to explore their current experiences, insights, data, and practices. Then working with my fellow board members and the BUSD administrative team, I would help to develop a systematic and systemic plan to tackle these issues. It is important to have ongoing communication with stakeholders and benchmarks along the way to determine if the plan is making progress or needs revisions. I would be proud to be a part of the Buckeye Union High School District Governing Board.

Yes Years you have lived in the district: 13 years How many school board meetings have you physically attended in the last year? 9 1. Why are you seeking election to the school board?

Teddy Castro I have been in the Litchfield Elementary School District for the 13 years. In that time my oldest daughter attended Corte Sierra the 2nd year it was opened in 2002. I also have two other children that currently attend schools in the district.

As a real estate broker, I am very aware of how important a school district is to the value of a community and for the people who want to live in it. For this reason, I have always been proud of the schools and district my children have attended for the last 13 years.

Meet your school board candidates

10 West Valley View, Avondale, Arizona, Wednesday, October 19, 2016

Candidates (From Page 9) within the district. In turn it motivated me to get involved at a higher level by running for a governing school board position to help this district expand its ability to not only compete, but be a model school district for Maricopa County and the State of Arizona.

2. What is the top issue the district faces, and what action would you take to address it?

Our biggest issue in the district is the speed of growth we are experiencing with new housing developments being built and more families moving into the district.

This type of growth can create growing pains in the current schools we have and in turn affect the quality of learning throughout our district as a whole.

My goal is to assess both higher and lower achieving schools in the district to see what alternate programs are being offered to maintain or increase student and parent involvement within the classroom. I believe the best way to increase involvement in the classroom is to excite students about their opportunities in school at an earlier age.

These opportunities should include but not limited to alternate skill programs such as science, technology, arts, programing, public service, and entrepreneurial leadership.

This balance of learning will help our youth succeed in and out of school as they either move into higher education or enter the workforce after high school. Our children deserve every opportunity available to succeed and shape their destiny as leaders for the future of our community.

Danielle Clymer (incumbent) Age: 38 Last level of school completed: Graduate school Degrees, certifications held: Bachelors of Science, Journalism Masters of Business Administration (MBA) Occupation: Marketing Consultant Do you have children who currently attend or previously attended school Danielle Clymer in the district?

Yes Years you have lived in the district: 12 How many school board meetings have you physically attended in the last year? 10 1. Why are you seeking election to the school board?

I believe in public education and the role it plays in bringing communities together. I

would like to serve on the LESD Governing Board to continue the excellence of the Litchfield Elementary School District.

As the top elementary district in the state, we offer parents a wonderful choice when it comes to educating their children. I want to ensure that LESD provides transparency in both communication and finances, as well as engages parents and the community in open forums for feedback.

As an ambassador for the district, I would garner support for our neighborhood schools and encourage parents and community leaders to take an active role in public education here in LESD. 2. What is the top issue the district faces, and what action would you take to address it?

As with many other public schools in our country and state, LESD faces serious challenges in the years ahead. School funding formulas, teacher retention, and properly managing growth in our community are some of those challenges we will continue to face.

The issue though that I feel carries the most weight during this next Governing Board term is the hiring of a new Superintendent. The Superintendent is the heart and soul of the district and their beliefs in how the district should operate will affect thousands of students and staff members.

I believe the Board’s role in this process is to lead the search for candidates strategically, while honestly discussing the future needs and opportunities of the district with its staff to ensure the candidate has the means to achieve success. A thorough and systematic approach will allow the Board members to interview and select the most viable candidate.

Jean Gray (incumbent) Age: 63 Last level of school completed: Masters Degree Degrees, certifications held: Masters of Business Administration Occupation: Retired from the Electric Utility Industry Do you have children who currently attend or previously attended school in the district?

I have a third grade daughter at Mabel Padgett Elementary and a seventh grade daughter at Western Sky Middle School.

Years you have lived in the district: 10 How many school board meetings have you physically attended in the last year? 10 1. Why are you seeking election to the school board?

I have enjoyed being on the school board this past year, and am proud of the work we have accomplished. I want to continue to contribute to the success of our school district.

As CFO for a large non-profit in the valley, I feel I have the financial understanding and budgeting expertise

to help the board from an oversight perspective and also help the district from a strategic perspective.

As our district continues to grow, it becomes more challenging each year to stretch the limited financial resources to meet the demands of maintaining our academic excellence and strong reputation.

As a member of the LESD Governing Board I will work to ensure those funds are spent in the most appropriate ways that yield the greatest impact on all of our students.

2. What is the top issue the district faces, and what action would you take to address it?

Our students are our priority, so I believe the biggest issue our district faces is continuing to provide each individual with the education and support to help them reach their own maximum potential. Many outside factors will increase the difficulty of this for LESD in 2017, including continued growth within our district, limited funding, and a change in leadership with our superintendent retiring.

To address this priority of achieving excellence for each student during these challenging times I will work with the administration and the board to ensure funds are allocated to attract and retain talented employees for our district. Being a top rated district in the state isn’t just about test scores, it’s about challenging the students to exceed the standards, and supporting the teachers that help take them there.

I am a father, husband, business owner, and longtime resident of the West Valley committed to serving others through affiliation with community based nonprofit organizations devoted to securing a bright future for all, particularly children.

I believe in values such as service above self and that intelligent, active engagement in public affairs is a true measure of citizenship.

which I hold the highest value. The value of education as the cornerstone of our democracy is one of those things. As a child, I remember my mother saying that people can take everything away from you in life, but they can never take your education.

Through out my life, I have pursued education and have relied on the value of education to pull me through some adverse situations and to give me an extra edge compared to the competition. Now it is time for me to give back to my community by becoming a member of the Litchfield Elementary #79 Governing Board where I will work to ensure that our children have the opportunity to experience the value of a top quality education.

2. What is the top issue the district faces, and what action would you take to address it?

The top issue facing the District is to manage the rapid student population growth that is occurring in the west valley. As a Governing Board member, I will work with our State legislators to secure a sustainable source of funding in a timely manner.

In addition, I will work with the District and the fellow members of the Litchfield Governing Board to prioritize spending to ensure we are able to acquire the facilities, equipment and personnel necessary to provide access to a top quality education for all students in the District. I will also work with the District to maintain the quality of our curriculum in order to enhance student achievement scores during this period of rapid growth.

2. What is the top issue the district faces, and what action would you take to address it?

Like others, our District faces many challenges. Chief among them is keeping up with residential growth. Such presents issues in areas of classroom size, funding, staffing, and transportation for example.

Other challenges include retention of teachers, technology, the distraction of politics in education, the need for greater parental engagement, and campus safety.

The action I would take to address these and other issues would be to work with fellow board members and stakeholders, especially our teaching staff and parents. I would be particularly supportive of efforts to benchmark best practices, pursue partnerships, and utilize workgroups.

It’s Business Briefcase time again, folks.

It’s another beautiful fall day in the Valley! Just kidding, it’s been in the “lovely” 90s for far too long now. If it’s grossly hot again, feel free to use a permanent marker to blot out the first sentence of this paragraph.

I’m sure everyone has a lot on their plates this week, so let’s get to it.

Let’s start with a couple of updates.

I’ve received quite a few emails asking about the status of the new Carolina’s Mexican Food restaurant at the northeast corner of Dysart Road and Western Avenue in Avondale.

Construction is expected to be completed by the end of 2016, giving the restaurant a target opening date in late December or January 2017.

Carolina’s will be Shane McOwen approximately 11,000 square feet, with an additional 2,000-squarefoot outdoor patio area. The Briefcase will update you with a more specific opening date once that information comes to light.

Item No. 2 on the frequently requested projects is WinCo Foods, which will eventually grace us with its presence in Goodyear at 15535 W. McDowell Road, in the empty lot on the southwest corner of McDowell Road and Pebble Creek Parkway.

WinCo is a bit of a good news/bad news situation. The good news is the grocer is still slated to be going in. The bad news is there’s (still) no official timetable for the project to get under way.

Don’t worry, Briefcase readers, I have your backs.

I’ll continue pestering WinCo representatives until they finally reveal their plans. (I’ll probably keep pestering

Millennium beats Tolleson thanks to strong 3rd quarter Tigers come from behind to win 36-26

by Shane McOwen sports writer

The Wolverines’ two blocked kicks resulted in the team’s only two scores in the half.

The Tigers were 0 for 3 on field-goal attempts in the first half, and the last one was blocked and returned for a score.

“Since I’m the special teams coordinator, I’m not too happy [about that],” Carter said.

Millennium’s

22-point swing happened in 8:05 of game time in the third quarter.

Tolleson doubled its total yardage on the next drive on a singular play — a 43-yard strike from Patrick Ortega to Dixon on third down — and kept the momentum going for a touchdown. Carlos Sanchez scored on an eight-yard end-around to cut Millennium’s lead to 10, 29-19, with less than 30 seconds remaining in the third.

The Wolverines forced a punt and had 2:59 remaining to get back into the game.

They got off to a good start by running a wide-receiver screen pass. Dixon took the pass from Ortega and willed his way past multiple defenders, eventually turning on the jets all the way to the end zone for the score.

Tolleson then recovered an onside-kick attempt and had the ball on the 50 with 2:41 remaining, down 36-26.

Tolleson went on a 10-play drive, but eventually turned the ball over on downs at the Tigers’ seven. Millennium sent out its victory formation to sew up the win.

“The game’s 48 minutes,” Wilke said.

“We can’t turn it on and play for the last five. It has to be for the entire 48.”

The Tigers stifled the Wolverines’ rushing attack all night, holding them to 48 yards on the ground total. Tolleson averaged just a hair over two yards per carry.

Ruth’s Chris Steak House is getting killed on social media after a promotion went awry, but the chain of tasty meat restaurants might actually be brilliant.

A promotion earlier this month on the Ann Arbor, Mich., location’s Facebook page stated customers would get their bills discounted by a percentage equal to the final winning point differential of Michigan’s Oct. 8 game against Rutgers.

Customers were instructed to visit the restaurant the following Sunday through Thursday and mention the “Score Big” Casey Pritchard promotion for their discount.

Michigan wound up beating Rutgers 78-0. That’s right, 78 percent off. At least that’s what everyone thought, until Ruth’s Chris amended its post to say, “winning point differential up to 50% off.”

People were up in arms. I can understand why, they thought they were getting an incredible deal, but 50 percent off at a steak house is still a great bargain.

Should the restaurant have honored its original promotion? Maybe so, but you can’t blame it for changing the promotion to a still very generous offer, or else people would have been paying pennies for their meals.

I can imagine the owner of the restaurant watching the game and crapping his or her pants with each successive touchdown. I’m sure the owner was rooting for Michigan, but to that extent, no chance.

However, the mistake, if it was indeed a mistake, might actually be brilliant.

The amount of attention Ruth’s Chris is garnering from this faux pas can’t be measured in comparison to how much free advertising the restaurant chain is getting.

Besides, it had to know Michigan was going to win big. Rutgers had just been blown out

by Ohio State 58-0 the week before, and the Las Vegas betting line on the game had Michigan favored by 30.5 points.

If the restaurant had any sense that a monumental beat down was going to happen, it would have put the 50 percent disclaimer in the original promotion.

Unless, that is, it was trying to bring attention to itself if the scenario that happened happened.

Hate what Ruth’s Chris did or not, that’s not going to affect its business. In fact, the Ann Arbor restaurant sold out of reservations from the deal. By 10:25 a.m.

Oct. 9, the first day of the promotion, the restaurant posted on Facebook, “As of now, we are fully committed with reservations through this Thursday for the Score Big promotion, with no additional availability.”

People responded by posting comments on Ruth’s Chris’ Facebook page about how it used deceptive advertising and should be sued. Those are probably the people who didn’t get a reservation in time, or tried to show up at the restaurant and found out it was booked full for the night. Sounds like jealousy to me.

I say bravo, Ruth’s Chris. You’ve generated quite a buzz, accidental or not. I just hope the steaks are as good as Michigan’s football team.

Youngker survives Buckeye, stays atop region Lady Hawks push Lady Roughriders to 5 sets

by Casey Pritchard sports editor

Buckeye is the only team to take a set from Youngker in 4A Southwest Region play, and the Lady Hawks almost stole a match from the Lady Roughriders Oct. 13.

Buckeye pushed Youngker to the limit, finally succumbing in five sets 25-23, 17-25, 25-13, 20-25 and 15-6.

The previous time the teams met, Youngker won 3-1. All the Lady Roughriders’ other region volleyball VOLLEYBALL matches have ended in 3-0 sweeps. Buckeye coach Jessica Gehrts was upbeat afterward, despite the loss.

“That was awesome, they showed up,” Gehrts said of her team. “Every ball mattered and they gave everything they had. I couldn’t ask for anything more than that.”

Buckeye appeared to have more energy than Youngker, despite it being senior night for the Lady Roughriders. Youngker coach Troy Sherman said maintaining a high energy level has been a work in progress all season.

“There was a struggle for energy, it looked like there was a struggle for desire, and the exact reasons why, I’m not sure,” Sherman said. “But, I am glad with the small changes we made they were able to get some stuff rolling. We did have some struggles early on, but that last set I’m happy we came out on fire and really lit it up.”

The first set went to Youngker, but it came down to the wire and had some controversy at the end. With the score tied 23-23, Youngker hit a ball that landed in the back right corner of the court.

The line judge in charge of making the call spun around to get out of the way of the ball, but she appeared to have put her flag up, signaling the ball was out.

After conferencing with the official, he determined the ball was in and gave the point to the Lady Roughriders. Youngker’s Skylar Reed got a kill on the next point, ending the first set.

“We get told different things from the refs, but one thing that’s always been said to us, when it’s convenient, is they can’t overrule the line judges,” Gehrts said.

“This year, probably five refs have told us they can’t overrule the line judge, even though he’s right there and sees it … He overruled her, so I was trying to get it straight.

“It was a huge call. For some reason, that always happens on those gamechanging points.”

SIERRA MENDOZA, left, of Buckeye spikes the ball Oct. 13 while Youngker’s Anise Christian, 12, and Joleese Meadows jump in an attempt to block it. The Lady Roughriders needed five sets to beat the Lady Hawks and remain undefeated in region play.

Youngker had a second-set lead, but at 16-13, the tables turned. Following an Olivia Napolitano kill for Buckeye, Sierra Mendoza served nine straight points, including three aces, and the Lady Hawks wound up scoring 12 of the final 13 points to win the set.

“They have been fighters,” Gehrts said.

“They’ve been 11-22 before and have come back to win with a good team. They fight. When they’re ready to play and they come out ready to play, they play every point, every ball, no matter what.”

Youngker responded to win the third set, and it came with a change implemented

by Sherman.

“We noticed we weren’t using the same mentality on serve receive and defense that has made us successful this entire season,” Sherman said of Game 2. “We talked about the footwork changes that needed to be made, getting to the ball and not reaching for the ball. Even though the touches happen with the hands, this game needs to be played with the feet first. If they get to the ball, we get a lot of control on it and we’re able to run what we need to.”

Youngker’s Monique Tometich played a key role in the third set, coming up

with three blocks in a five-point span. It came during the midst of a 5-0 run that increased Youngker’s lead to 16-8, and the Lady Roughriders never looked back in the set.

Buckeye bounced right back, winning the fourth set. The Lady Hawks got two aces from Yajaira Lerma and a couple of late kills from Napolitano to win the set.

Youngker aided Buckeye’s cause with eight serving errors in the set.

“One of our biggest things why we kept falling behind is we were not making our serves; we were missing a lot of serves in clutch situations,” Reed said. “We would work really hard to get out of a run of their points, then we’d miss a serve and it would just kill the momentum. So, I’m sure we’ll be serving a lot at practice next time.”

Deciding set Youngker fell behind early in the fifth set, 2-0, but Sherman didn’t panic. He knows what his team is capable of, he said.

“I try not to get emotional in the first five points of each set,” Sherman said.

“It’s not uncommon for this team to go down 0-2, 0-3, or even 0-5, and come back and pull even in a very short amount of time. It’s something we’ve seen all year, so I try to stay completely unemotional.

They are slow starters, but once they get rolling, they can look pretty good.”

Reed had a monster fifth game, ending eight of the 15 points with kills.

“I realized in the fifth set, if I’m not playing my best, how can I expect my teammates to play their best? So I was like, I

need to step up and take control,” Reed said.

“It’s that type of showing, that type of play that has made her a leader on this team,” Sherman added. “I don’t know why it wasn’t consistent through the first four sets, but we’re just glad she brought it when needed.”

Reed finished with a match-high 27 kills, while teammate Taylore Draper had eight. Napolitano had 14 kills to lead Buckeye.

“She was a beast up there, for sure,” Gehrts said of Napolitano. “We moved her to the middle a couple weeks ago, and she’s been playing the net really well.

She’s aggressive, going after everything.

She’s been killing it up there.”

The victory moved Youngker to 19-11 overall, and 6-0 in the Southwest Region.

The Lady Roughriders have two region matches remaining.

“Our main goal is to win region,” Reed said. “We really want to get a banner up on this roof, and we really want to go to state. It’s nice because if we win our region, we’ll host our first state tournament game.”

Meanwhile, Buckeye dropped to 9-13 overall, and is 1-5 in region play. The Lady Hawks will miss the postseason, but Gehrts is hoping her team will build from its performance against Youngker, she said.

“We played five games pretty strong, so I want to finish like this,” Gehrts said. “I want them to hit Casa Grande, Yuma and Estrella, I want them to play just like this.”

Some people get complacent after claiming the top prize in their sport. For Desert Edge golfer Aaron Ramos, he’s used it as motivation to be better.

Ramos, the 2015 Division II state champion in boys golf, is putting up ridiculous numbers on the course this year, and doesn’t want to just win another state title.

BOYS GOLF “My goal is to finish anywhere between 10- and 15-under [par] for the [state] tournament,” Ramos said. “My motivation is not so much to repeat, but to finish with a lower score. That’s always been my motivation, to improve.”

He won last year’s title by shooting a 4-under par 140 in the two-day event at Randolph Golf Course in Tucson.

In the offseason, he continued to get better by playing tons of golf.

Ramos worked at Villa de Paz Golf Club in Phoenix and played 36 holes per day in the summer. He also practices at the Wigwam in Litchfield Park, sometimes playing 54 holes in a single day.

“People usually don’t associate [working hard] with golf, but he does,” Desert Edge coach Jon Williams said.

“He works hard, and this summer, he rededicated himself to get to the next level, and he has.”

In addition to playing constantly, Ramos also has a workout regimen he sticks to.

“I have an uncle who is a personal trainer and allnatural body builder,” Ramos said. “He gives me a workout that I do about three times a week with light weight, and I do a lot of cardio.”

Ramos’ dedication to the sport led to a pair of tournament victories at invitational meets last month.

The first was a 27-hole tournament at Coldwater Golf Club where Ramos shot 9-under par, tying for the championship. He had to sink a 15-foot putt on the last hole of the event to claim a tie for the title.

“I knew it was kind of an important putt, but I didn’t know it was to tie,” Ramos said. “Going into the last three holes, my coach gave me a hint and said we need to birdie each of the last three holes, and I parred the second of the three. I knew he wasn’t going to tell me to birdie the last three holes to tie. I knew if I would have birdied my last three holes, I would have won it.”

Ramos’ 9-under par was a personal best for 27 holes.

He was 3 under after the nine-hole first round, and went 6 under the second day. He said he found a hitch in his putting stroke that he was able to fix, helping him during the second round.

“The second day, I found something that kind of clicked with my putter,” Ramos said. “I found out that I was twisting my hips while I was going back and going through. The more I would keep my lower body stable, I found it came out way more online. I was just making sure the only movement was the rocking of my shoulders.”

The following week, Ramos competed in the Kenny Schall Memorial Tournament at Willow Creek Golf Course. After one day, Ramos was 1-over par, but he shot a 7-under 65 on Day 2, winning the event by seven strokes.

“The first day, it was very windy, and I was kind of excited about it because I’ve always felt I play really good in the wind,” Ramos said. “But I really couldn’t get

Despite not shooting well the first day, Ramos was only one shot off the lead because conditions proved difficult for most golfers. The second day was a different story.

“The conditions were perfect,” he said of the second day. “So, I went out and did my thing. I was 8 under after 15 or 16 and I bogeyed one of my last holes. It was still a 65, one of my best rounds.”

Williams said he can see the vast improvement in Ramos’ game from last year to this year. The biggest difference he sees is how far Ramos is hitting the ball.

“That’s the most striking difference, he’s added 25 yards to his drive, at least,” Williams said. “Now, the courses are getting shorter for him, and that’s improving his entire game.”

Williams sees big things for Ramos on the horizon, especially because of his improved work ethic, he said.

“You can definitely tell this summer was almost kind of a wake-up call for him; he was happy he achieved his goal, but there’s always new goals to be met,” Williams said. “Last year, he wanted to compete at state, obviously go low and try to win it. Now, he’s focusing on a number.

He wants to gear himself up to try to be 7-, 8-under par at state. It’s a testament to him and his personality and

mentality with golf. He knows everyone can always get better, including him. It’s a maturity you don’t usually see with a kid his age.”

Rest of team Desert Edge only has four total members on the team, which is the minimum required to earn a team score at a match. However, the Scorpions have had problems getting all four athletes to compete during events.

“We’ve gotten in our own way with ineligibilities and suspensions this year,” Williams said. “It’s been a tough scoring year for our team. We’re starting to fight back and hoping to have all four at the beginning of October and finish the season strong.”

Of the four players, three are returners. In addition to Ramos, Dillon Trice and Ryan Schotter are also back.

Nathaniel Garza is a senior, but new to the team.

“He’s our most improved player this season,” Williams said. “He’s been steady. He stepped up and performed well, has represented Desert Edge well. One of the highlights of him is not much gets to him, not much fazes him, which is good for golf.”

Desert Edge’s next match is Thursday at Palm Valley Golf Club against Verrado, Prescott Valley Bradshaw Mountain and Agua Fria.

Week 8 Football roundup West Valley teams post 8-2 combined record over the weekend

by Shane McOwen sports writer

It was a good week for local West Valley football teams, as the schools combined to go 8-2 over the weekend, with one of the losses coming against another local school.

All games were played Oct. 14, except Tonopah Valley, which played Oct. 15.

Westview won a FOOTBALL shootout against Valley Vista, 46-34, to keep pace as co-region leaders with Millennium in the 6A Southwest Region.

The game story can be found on Page 13.

Millennium bested Tolleson 36-26 in the lone game featuring two local West Valley teams. The game story can be found on Page 12.

Agua Fria had a bye, but will be back to action at 7 p.m. Friday, hosting Verrado.

Week 8 game highlights: La Joya 31, Copper Canyon 26 After back-to-back region losses, La Joya got back into the win column, and .500 overall, against Glendale Copper Canyon, winning 31-26.

The Lobos trailed 8-3 at halftime, and 20-17 after the third quarter, but scored twice on the ground in the fourth quarter to take a 31-20 lead, holding on for the victory.

Quarterback Devin Dourisseau completed 7 of 18 passes for 100 yards, and also rushed for two touchdowns.

Senior Aaron Murphy broke the century mark rushing, finishing with 119 yards on 10 carries.

The Lobos rushed for 238 total yards and three touchdowns, averaging 5.0 yards per carry.

Junior Fernando Garcia returned an interception 95 yards for a touchdown.

The Lobos have two region games remaining, away Friday at Surprise Valley Vista, and Oct. 28 at home against district rival Tolleson.

Youngker 34, Gila Ridge 27 Youngker picked up its second win of the season, and second in as many weeks, Oct. 14 over Yuma Gila Ridge, 34-27.

The Roughriders held a 14-13 advantage at half, and expanded their lead with a 20-point third quarter to take a 34-20 lead. Youngker’s defense held tough in the fourth to cement the victory, moving the team to 2-7 on the season.

Youngker will travel across town Friday to face Buckeye.

Buckeye 47, Mohave 20 Buckeye took down Bullhead City Mohave 47-20 to move to 6-2 on the season.

Buckeye had two rushers reach the 100yard mark. Junior Jaiden Segundo ran for 113 yards and two scores on 12 carries.

Junior Joseph Perez carried the ball six times for 100 yards and a touchdown, including a 70-yard run. Perez also completed 5 of 7 passes for 66 yards and a touchdown.

The Hawks kept pace with Estrella Foothills for the region lead with the victory, and will look to improve to 3-0 in region Friday at home against Youngker.

Estrella Foothills 44, Yuma 13 Estrella Foothills continued its good form at home, taking down Yuma 44-13 Oct. 14.

The Wolves moved to 4-4 on the season, and have now won three straight games, two of which were region contests.

edge of an at-large berth, but could face the same dilemma as Verrado where they would be at the mercy of a region champion finishing below the playoff threshold.

Estrella Foothills comes in at No. 25, with the region-title path as its most likely path to the playoffs. The Wolves are 4-4, and would automatically take the playoff berth by winning their final two games.

Youngker, 2-7 and ranked No. 36, can crash the playoff party with a win over Buckeye, and two losses from Estrella Foothills. The door is still open for the Roughriders to finish 3-8 and make the postseason.

Tonopah Valley is currently the No. 17 seed in 2A, and is one game behind Surprise Paradise Honors in the 2A Central Region standings. The Phoenix can potentially create a three-way tie atop the standings by beating Sedona Red Rock (1-7) and Paradise Honors (4-0 region) to end the season. The log jam would be sorted out via tiebreakers, but a title would guarantee Tonopah Valley a home game in the first round, regardless of seed.

We’re mere weeks away from the fall schedule playoffs beginning, and the picture is starting to shape up for West Valley football and volleyball teams.

Currently, only 4 of 11 football teams are ranked inside the top 16 of their respective conferences, but plenty of scenarios can still play out in the season’s final two weeks.

In 6A, Westview is holding down the best shot to earn a playoff berth. The Knights are 6-2 through eight games, losing to Phoenix Brophy, ranked No. 6, and Peoria Centennial, ranked No. 6 in 5A and defending top-conference champions.

Westview currently occupies the ninth seed and would open the playoffs at Mesa Mountain View if the playoffs started today.

Millennium currently sits at No. 21 in 6A, five spots from the last qualifying playoff seed, but has ample opportunity to boost its rating in the final two weeks of the season. Millennium travels to Westview Friday to battle for the pole position in 6A Southwest.

Tolleson has been eliminated from the playoffs via the region champion route, as the Wolverines have three losses and are ranked No. 30.

La Joya, ranked No. 25, also cannot earn a playoff berth by winning the region title. Both Lobos region losses are to the top two teams, Westview and Millennium, and neither of those squads can lose more than two region games going forward, owning the tiebreaker over La Joya.

In 5A, Desert Edge is a lock to make the postseason, and has the driver’s seat for the conference’s overall top spot.

Verrado, currently No. 17, will have to hope for a region title, still in play, or to finish above No. 16, as the winner from 5A Union Region will likely bump the No. 16 team from the playoffs. Region winners are granted automatic spots in the playoffs. Laveen Betty H. Fairfax currently sits at No. 18.

Agua Fria is ranked No. 36 at 2-6, and has been eliminated from the region title discussion with two losses and losing the tiebreaker with Desert Edge.

West Valley 4A teams’ playoff aspirations may very well lay with a Week 10 matchup between Buckeye and Estrella Foothills.

The Hawks, No. 15, are right on the

Volleyball Millennium is the top of the class for 6A West Valley volleyball. The Lady Tigers are ranked sixth, and are 10-3 in power-points games, only losing to teams rated above them.

Westview sits at No. 23, seven spots from a playoff berth, and is in third place in the 6A Southwest Region.

Tolleson, No. 31, and La Joya, No. 37, each have five losses in region play with only a handful of games remaining.

In 5A, Verrado is the fifth-ranked team and has all but officially secured a playoff spot.

The Lady Vipers are one game up on Desert Edge, No. 13, in 5A Desert West play. The Lady Scorpions have one game remaining against Verrado, and still have a shot to take the region crown, as well as improve their stock for the 5A rankings.

Agua Fria, in the middle of a transition year after losing much of its attacking force from last season, is ranked No. 24.

The Lady Owls would have to win out, and get major help from their region foes, to have a shot at an automatic playoff berth.

Youngker is ranked No. 15 in 4A, and may have to win its region to secure a playoff spot.

Estrella Foothills, No. 22, is third in region play at 3-2. Buckeye, No. 28, was eliminated from region contention with its loss to Youngker Oct. 13.

Odyssey Institute is ranked No. 14 in 3A, just in the playoff-qualifying zone.

Saturday, Oct. 29. The celebration will take place on the historic resort’s front lawn in Litchfield Park.

Join us for an evening filled with a variety of craft beers, mouthwatering barbecue and live entertainment.

With more than 40 memorable brews to sip and sample, craft beer lovers can enjoy a variety of styles and discover an assortment of boutique breweries and beers.

This year, West Valley favorites—Rudy’s BBQ and Tom’s BBQ—will join the Wigwam’s culinary team and serve up classic American barbecue in addition to modern twists on bacon dishes. On top of eating delicious local barbecue, festival goers can also indulge in live music with high-energy True to Life Band, dancing, fun prizes and more.

Tickets are $30 per person which includes event entry, a commemorative glass and 15 beer tasting samples. To promote responsible drinking, designated driver tickets are also available for purchase at $10 per person which includes entry and three non-alcoholic beverages. All food items sold separately.

(From Page 12) had us in a run-heavy defense,” Michael Garverkick, Millennium senior captain, said.

The Tigers didn’t do too shabby against the pass, either.

Ortega was only able to complete 15 of 33 throws for 211 yards, with five completions coming on the last drive alone.

On offense, Millennium excelled through the air. Pina finished 23 of 33 for 367 yards and three touchdowns. Taylor had 131 yards on five receptions and two scores. Isaac Oliver had seven receptions for 86 yards out of the backfield. Three other Tiger receivers had at least 42 receiving yards apiece.

“We didn’t come ready, and that’s my fault,” Wilke said.

“We have two left here, and we’ll do everything we can to do our best here. We came up short tonight, that’s about it.”

Millennium kept pace for the top spot in the 6A Southwest Region standings with the win. The Tigers were one of three 2-0 teams heading into Week 8 action, along with Westview and Surprise Valley Vista. Westview beat Valley Vista 46-34 to move to 3-0 in region play.

The win didn’t move Millennium from No. 21 in the 6A power-points rankings. The Tigers will either have to win the region or finish at least at No. 15 to make the playoffs. No team from 6A Metro is currently ranked in the top 16, and the region winner would automatically bump the 16th seed and take that playoff spot.

“We’re taking it one game at a time,” Carter said. “We talked about getting better. We’re still making mistakes, and we still have practice on Monday, which is good.

We’ll fix those mistakes.”

Millennium travels to Westview Friday with region superiority at stake. Tolleson will host Glendale Copper Canyon at 7 p.m. Friday.

DALLAS DIXON, 80, of Tolleson is upended Oct. 14 by Millennium’s Aiden Diggs, 7. The Wolverines’ offense struggled early and gave up a first-half lead in losing to the Tigers 36-26.

Shane McOwen can be reached at smcowen@westvalleyview.com or on Twitter @ShaneMcOwen.

Escape (From Page 12) was successful, making it a 21-14 Valley Vista lead.

“We put in a new kick return this week, credit coach [George] Burgess for putting that in, and it worked,” Gehrts said. “It was a different blocking scheme. Nothing special, but it was good. We wanted to get to the sideline.”

The Knights would score twice more before the end of the half, getting a three-yard touchdown run from Vasko to tie the score at 21-21, and a 76-yard TD run from Orange Mooney to take their first lead at 27-21. Valley Vista tied the score at halftime when Ray Baquero scored on a seven-yard sweep play, making it 27-27.

Second half Westview struck first in the second half, but Valley Vista answered right back. The Knights’ touchdown came on a three-yard Mooney run, while the Monsoon’s score was a 16-yard pass from Lara III to Kade Akers. That made it 34-34.

Westview went ahead for good on the second play of the fourth quarter, getting a four-yard Vasko touchdown run. The extra point was wide left, but it didn’t turn out to hurt the Knights. Valley Vista’s next drive ended in a three-and-out, with the big playing coming on second down. Loyd sacked Lara III for an eight-yard loss, and the Monsoon eventually had to punt.

The Knights added the final touchdown on a Ryan Martinez to Scott Fallers 26-yard pass, and Bryan’s late interception sealed the victory.

Loyd said the difference in the second half was the defense’s execution.

“We were giving up too many points [in the first half],” Loyd said. “We had to stop them. They didn’t show us anything we hadn’t seen.”

“We didn’t really make any adjustments, a couple little things, we just had to execute better and tackle better,” Gehrts added. “We had a lot of missed tackles in the first half.

View photo by Ray Thomas

TYLER VASKO, 10, of Westview runs behind the block of Alejandro Palazuelos Oct. 14. Vasko rushed for 220 yards and two touchdowns to help the Knights beat Valley Vista.

“I thought overall, it was a total team effort. There’s room to grow, so we’ve got to get better.”

The victory moved Westview to 6-2, and the Knights are 3-0 in the Southwest Region, tied with Millennium.

The two will have a showdown at 7 p.m. Friday, with the winner likely to claim the region championship.

“We talked about how this week was a playoff game; it really was, going into it,” Gehrts said of Valley Vista.

“Next week is another playoff game. Hopefully, we can

improve on those things and go 1-0 next week.”

Gehrts believes the Knights can beat anybody if they’re executing well, he said.

“I believe so, and our guys believe so,” Gehrts said.

“It’s really executing and doing what we’re coached to do, and we’re fine.”

Tolleson is helping to keep pets and people alike in tiptop shape with its annual Community Health and Pet Expo from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday at Tolleson Veterans Park, 8601 W. Van Buren St. More than 30 vendors will be on site, including the Area Agency on Aging, the American Diabetes Association, Care 1st Health Plan, Healthy Spines, Southwest Lending Closet and the ASU College of Nursing, which will provide blood pressure and blood glucose screenings. Goodwill and Macyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s will also have a job booth.

Purrfurred Pets will be spaying and neutering pets free of charge starting at 7 a.m. on a first-come, firstserved basis. Registration will start at 6:30 a.m. All pets must be younger than 6 years old and weigh less than 60 pounds. Take-home pain medication is required, and costs $12 to $18 depending on the size of the animal.

Micro chipping and vaccines will also be offered at a low cost, the Tolleson Police Explorers will be washing dogs for donations and rescue organizations will have animals available for adoption. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Pets are part of the family, and they need to be healthy, so we provide low-cost vaccines, a day at the park and they can get them neutered and spayed and get their nails trimmed,â&#x20AC;? said Ruth Espinoza, Parks and Recreation programmer for Tolleson.

A new event this year is a big dog race, and dogs must weigh at least 100 pounds. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They never get to race, so weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll see how well that goes â&#x20AC;&#x201D; it should be hilarious,â&#x20AC;? Espinoza said.

Just like the Wiener and Chihuahua races, dogs will be running off leash during the event and two people must be present â&#x20AC;&#x201D; one at the starting line and the other at the finish line to catch the dog.

No food will be allowed on the track, but toys are permitted. The number of dogs in each race will be determined based on registration. The winner of each heat will move on to the finals, and prizes will be awarded for first, second and third place.

Other activities at the expo include: â&#x20AC;˘ 10:15 a.m. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Blessing of the animals â&#x20AC;˘ 11 a.m. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Big dog races and Wiener and Chihuahua dog races (check-in at 10:30 a.m.) â&#x20AC;˘ 11:30 a.m. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Mother and father jump rope contest â&#x20AC;˘ Noon â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Shorty Rossi and Hercules from the Animal Planet show Pit Boss on stage â&#x20AC;˘ 12:30 p.m. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Pit bull costume contest (check-in at noon) â&#x20AC;˘ 1 p.m. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Raffle for two adult beach cruiser bikes â&#x20AC;˘ 1:30 p.m. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Ugliest dog contest (check-in at 1 p.m.)

All contests are free this year, and registration is done at the event. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have enough sponsors for it, so we decided weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d rather have them come out and enjoy it instead of having to pay for it,â&#x20AC;? Espinoza said.

All pets must be on leashes during the expo, except during the races if theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re competing.

Entertainment will also include a DJ and inflatable corn maze for children.

W. Valley cities making a difference on international day of service View report

Volunteers from Avondale and Goodyear will unite with millions around the world Saturday during the annual Make a Difference Day. The international day of serviceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s mission is simple: to improve lives.

Avondale expects 100 volunteers of all ages to help paint six homes from 7 a.m. to noon. The cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s project partners with Rebuilding Together, Phoenix West Maricopa Stake of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latterday Saints and local businesses to make the project possible. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Make a Difference Day is an opportunity for the community to come together for the sole purpose of making neighborhoods stronger through service to others,â&#x20AC;? said Donna Gardner, community engagement coordinator for Avondale. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our volunteers are inspired to serve the community and feel empowered to create positive change.â&#x20AC;?

Goodyear plans to have more than 250 volunteers

Measure could speed removal of salt cedars View report

A measure approved by the U.S. Senate would help speed up projects involving the removal of salt cedars, such as those growing in the Gila River in Buckeye.

The amendment to the Water Resources Development Act gives the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service authority to expedite permits for mechanical salt cedar removal on projects up to 500 acres.

It was filed by Arizona Sen. John McCain and Sen. Jeff Flake as an amendment to a bill that was approved by the Senate 95-3 on Sept. 15 and sent to the House. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Accelerating the removal of salt cedar is an important step in safeguarding Arizonaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s water supply,â&#x20AC;? McCain said in a press release.

Adult salt cedar trees are estimated to consume about 200 gallons of water a day, McCain said.

An invasive species, salt cedars kill native trees and plants because of the large amount of water they consume.

The trees are also highly flammable, putting surrounding structures and roads at risk.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve seen salt cedar removal projects work in places like the Yuma Crossing National Heritage Area, where 400 acres of salt cedar stretching two stories high were restored as wetlands habitat that now supports the recovery of endangered species,â&#x20AC;? McCain said.

Buckeye Mayor Jackie Meck said salt cedars are a statewide threat to life and property.

The cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s restoration efforts address an 18-mile stretch of the Gila River, where salt cedars have congested the flow of water to the point where the riverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s basin has become a mile wide, Meck said.

Eradicating salt cedars will protect homes and restore natural habitat for native animal species and save 50,000 acre feet of water annually, he said in a press release.

Meck added the measure will be helpful in resolving issues of fire and flood created by the congestion.

Clint Hickman, chairman of the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors, said the measure will strengthen the ability to address harmful impacts of salt cedar trees in the county and throughout the state.

McCain saw the local salt cedar problem first-hand during a visit to Buckeye in July 2015.
