From the Mayor
Thank you to everyone who helped us celebrate Independence Day at our annual celebration July 4 at the Buckeye Municipal Airport. This is one of my favorite events every year for many reasons, mostly because it shows we stay true to our small-town roots with free, family friendly events. Our Community Services Department continues to out-do themselves every year organizing these spectacular events.
I also want to thank everyone who drove the I-10 during ADOT’s two-year construction project. We now have a third travel lane in both directions and brand new interchanges at Miller and Watson roads. These improvements have helped traffic flow immensely, and I appreciate your patience as we all navigated the ever-changing lane restrictions.
Buckeye and water continue to be in the news, but our message remains the same - We currently have the water resources to sustain our existing customers and the projected growth that already have certificates of assured water supply from the Arizona Department of Water Resources.
Despite what you hear in the news, Buckeye's strategic location, and supportive business environment have made it an attractive destination for investment. Buckeye has become a hotspot for advanced manufacturing, providing a favorable environment for innovation, production and retail services.
A great example is the much anticipated grand opening of the Costco Wholesale store on the southeast corner of Verrado Way and I-10. City and Costco officials are projecting record crowds at this location from the start. We expect more retail stores and restaurants will quickly be announced to complete that shopping center soon.
As the city continues to evolve and embrace innovation, Buckeye is poised to further enhance its economic landscape, creating opportunities and prosperity for both our residents and businesses.
Even though it’s still hot outside, now is the time to register for some of Buckeye’s great fall sports leagues, camps and senior programs, and mark your calendars to attend more of our wonderful city events. Movies in the Park, Fall Break Camp, EON classes and the popular Halloween Carnival are just a few great examples of all the excellent programs the city offers to you and your family. A full list of city events and programs is at buckeyeaz.gov
There’s so much more happening in Buckeye, to keep up with everything going on in the city, just follow me on social media - Facebook @MayorEricOrsborn or Instagram @city-of-buckeye-mayor.

MONSOON SAFETY
Monsoon Safety Tips
Monsoon storms can bring serious damage to your neighborhood including heavy rain, flash flooding, blowing debris, uprooted trees and downed power lines.
It is always best to stay inside during a monsoon – your safety depends on it!
After a storm, checking for damage to your home, car and neighborhood is essential too - but it’s no time for fun.
Remember, never drive through a flooded street either. Don’t Drown – Turn Around.
And while cleaning up: Bag and tie ALL trash, including yard waste.
•
•
• Animal waste
• Trash
For your health and safetyNEVER swim in a flooded retention basin. (Don’t let your pets swim in it either!)
Normally dry retention basins fill with water and contain many hidden dangers :
Debris &
from
pollution
roads
Chemicals from
pesticides
