Mountain Ridge head football coach Vince Ciliberti was arrested by Tempe police last week after allegedly luring a minor for sexual exploitation. According to a police spokesperson, a Tempe Police Internet Crimes Against Children Unit undercover officer communicated with Ciliberti on an instant messenger app. According to the spokesperson, Ciliberti believed he was communicating with a 14-year-old boy, telling him he wanted to have a sexual relationship. Ciliberti, 35, was booked and released from jail February 1. Ciliberti was released from jail without any charges being dropped
and he is due in court February 14 and February 21 in Mesa. Tempe police confirmed the arrest came after an investigation by its InterCrimes Mountain Ridge head football net coach Vince Ciliberti.

Ronald Elcock said in an email. “We have been in contact with Deer Valley Unified School District to make them aware of the arrest.” According to the charges, the law states suspects charged with luring a minor for sexual exploitation “by offering or soliciting sexual conduct with another person knowing or having reason to know that the other person is a minor” is a class 3 felony. Deer Valley Unified School District sent a letter to parents informing them of the situation and that they were also investigating. “There is some information that we feel is important to share with you to maintain transparent communication as we work toSEE COACH PAGE 2

Birds are slowly flying out of the West Valley as Glendale joins Peoria in banning the electric scooters. The move comes three days after council gave staff direction to research electric scooters in the city. City Attorney Michael Bailey sent Bird Rides Inc. a cease and desist letter January 25, telling the company to remove all scooters from city property. Otherwise, the company could be charged up to $250 an hour per scooter. SEE SCOOTERS PAGE 2

Bird responded January 31, saying all scooters would be removed from the city. “While Bird does not believe it was operating in conflict with existing rules or regulations, we understand the city’s legal position,” said Nourie Boraie, Bird Rides Inc. manager, government partnerships, in the letter to the city. “In light of this, Bird will remove our devices from Glendale rights-of-way as soon as logistically possible, while we continue to work with city staff and elected officials to update language, develop new rules and regulations, and establish a strong and respectful partnership with Glendale.” Numerous councilmembers said they were against the e-scooters in the city. Vice Mayor Joyce Clark stated in her newsletter the city will spend the next six months reviewing the ordinance to decide if they want the scooters. In Bailey’s letter to Bird, he wrote, “Among other prohibitions, the Glendale city code prohibits self-propelled scooters, such as Bird’s scooters, from being operated in ‘any city park, on any public sidewalk, roadway or any other part of a street or city property.’” The letter added, “Self-propelled
scooters are also prohibited from: parking on a street, parking on the roadside, parking on a sidewalk, parking within 15 feet of a fire hydrant, parking within 20 feet of a crosswalk, or parking within 30 feet of a stop sign, yield sign or traffic control signal.” Numerous people walking downtown were glad to hear the city was making the company remove the scooters. “The fact that I see these things all over the sidewalk and I have to walk around them everywhere, it is really annoying,” Joanna Gilderson said. “They are a nuisance and I am glad the city is finally doing something about them.” Another person having lunch in downtown Glendale, Dawn Brutinski of Peoria, said she was glad Glendale was following Peoria’s lead. “Peoria just ordered them to be removed and I am glad to see Glendale also getting rid of them. They are just everywhere and are dangerous if you are walking down the sidewalk and they are laying across blocking the way for pedestrians,” Brutinski said. Peoria, who also recently ordered the scooters removed from the city after they appeared in early 2018, was running a pilot-program that officials “in-

tended to evaluate how this new transportation system would be used, while balancing public safety concerns.” The city wanted to evaluate the safety, demand, usage, code compliance, economic impact, and community response to the electric scooters, according to the press release. Peoria officials ordered the scooters removed after Bird made “major handwritten changes to the approved agreement.” One of those changes would have placed significant liability, risk and exposure to lawsuits and claims against the city and its taxpayers, a statement read. “As a result, the agreement was never finalized, and Bird will conclude its operations in Peoria,” the statement noted. Bird claimed, in a letter sent to Peoria officials January 23: “Over the past few months we have worked closely with Peoria city staff to craft an e-scooter pilot program customized to suit Peoria’s transportation goals. While we appreciate the opportunity to bring a sustainable transportation alternative to the residents of Peoria, Bird is unable to agree to the onerous regulations promulgated by the city, and must move to withdraw our fleet operations in Peoria.” Bird claimed three issues in negotiating with Peoria, including “Peoria’s
insistence that we indemnify the city for its own negligence ... high fees … overly burdensome and redundant operational requirements.” In the response from Bird to Glendale, Boraie added, “Over the past four months of operation, we have built a network of individuals in Glendale who charge, repair and deploy our devices. While we move quickly to come into compliance with your request, we hope that you will afford us time to communicate these coming changes to our local chargers and mechanics. Please allow us one week’s time before enforcement begins so that we may work through operational logistics, move the fleet, and discuss next steps with our team on the ground.” Bailey’s letter to Bird added, “The Glendale Department of Transportation is working with the Glendale City Council to develop appropriate regulations for the operation of dockless mobility services in the city of Glendale.” Boraie responded, “We appreciate your cooperation as we make this temporary adjustment and we look forward to maintaining our close partnership with Glendale, as we are eager to return to the city as soon as it develops a program officially permitting e-scooter operation.” The scooters are expected to be removed from Glendale by February 7.

He has worked and coached football at MRHS for one and a half years.” Ciliberti was named Mountain Ridge’s head coach in December 2016, and began teaching algebra and geometry in 2017. The team finished 2018 winless at 0-10 and has compiled a 2-18 record in Ciliberti’s two years as head football coach. This was his first head coaching job.

This staff member passed all of the required background checks during the hiring process, including the fingerprint clearance check,” the DVUSD letter said. “We do not have any additional information at this time.” The letter to parents added, “If you have any information that would be important for police to know, please contact the Tempe Police Department directly. If we learn of information that will further impact our school or your student’s education, we will send out another letter.”

Human relations commission seeks council assistance in questionnaire BY DARRELL JACKSON Glendale Star Staff Writer
The human relations commission updated the Glendale City Council on its early discussions nearly two years after its creation. The discussion centered on how to help all residents. “We have created a survey that we are asking councilmembers to help us distribute to get the best response citywide,” said Jamie Kelly, human relations commission chairperson. “The survey collection and data review should take 60 to 90 days and we are looking to get as much information as possible.” Because the commission’s purpose is broadly defined, it has developed the 12-question survey to collect data from Glendale residents and businesses to see what issues and events they wish to see. “The questionnaire comes after four months of meetings and a number of the commissioners on the HRC have experienced in social work and data collection,” said Assistant City Manager Nancy Mangone. “We tried for simple
information that citizens believe the commission should be working on.” Suggestions included events to help promote the city’s diversity. Kelly also proposed a minor amendment to its enabling legislation that modifies the number of commissioners necessary to constitute a quorum after another member recently resigned. “We currently have 10 members (of 14 proposed) after one recently resigned,” Mangone said. “To have a quorum, you have to have over 50 percent plus one so we would currently need eight present at meetings. Because of that, we have had to cancel a couple of recent meetings.” Human Resources and Risk Management Director Jim Brown told the council at an earlier workshop he was unaware of any problems or issues that would make the commission a necessity. He noted, however, Glendale had consistently been rated low in the municipal equality index because of a lack of language in contracts and a commission. In 2014, city officials signed the Unity
Pledge, which called on businesses and government entities to support equal treatment in housing, employment and hospitality for the LGBT community. Since February 2015, city contracts included a nondiscrimination provision. The idea of such a commission came from Councilman Jamie Aldama, who pushed for a Diversity Commission, which was supported by Councilman Bart Turner and unanimously approved in 2017. Diversity was an opportunity to point out differences in people, which Mangone said, she was not sure that was the direction the council should go. Councilmembers acknowledged that Glendale had become a more forward-facing community and the future was important, hence the commission was created. Council was expected to approve the change to quorum number at the January 22 voting meeting, however, it was pulled at the last minute to be brought to a future meeting for a vote.
Two 18-year-old carjacking suspects charged BY DARRELL JACKSON Glendale Star Staff Writer
Two 18-year-old suspects have been charged with carjacking a man at his home and then leading officers on a chase that involved multiple crashes and shootings. Kristian Leonel Medeiros and Yazmin Garcia Hernandez are in jail facing charges of armed robbery, aggravated assault and unlawful flight from police. According to a police spokesperson, on January 25 the two suspects approached a man at his residence near Camelback Road and 91st Avenue, demanding his car, a white Chevrolet Suburban, at gunpoint. The suspects fled the scene with the vehicle and approximately $200 in cash. Police found the vehicle near Glendale and 83rd avenues and followed it, witnessing Garcia Hernandez driving it and Medeiros in the passenger seat. The driver did not yield at the intersection
of Northern and 67th avenues, before reportedly crashing into two vehicles. As officers chased the vehicle, Medeiros allegedly fired shots from within the vehicle toward police and civilian vehicles. According to a police spokesperson, at least five officers were shot at, however, none were struck. At least two civilian vehicles were struck by gunfire, the spokesperson said. Witnesses near Grand and 53rd avenues reported seeing a handgun thrown from the suspect’s vehicle. Police later determined it was stolen out of Phoenix the previous day. Police continued chasing the vehicle until the suspects drove into the parking lot of a Home Depot near Camelback Road and 43rd Avenue. The vehicle reportedly crashed into another vehicle prior to reaching the store and the suspects ran into the store. According to the spokesperson, one Glendale officer fired their weapon at SEE SUSPECTS PAGE 5

Medeiros but missed. “This round was accounted for and nobody was struck,” police stated in a release. Police said Garcia Hernandez was arrested in the store without further incident and Medeiros was arrested after a brief fight with officers a short distance away from the store. Authorities found 10 shell casings along Grand Avenue between 67th and 43rd avenues. Both suspects made statements implicating themselves in the series of
crimes, the police spokesperson said. Medeiros allegedly told police they were poor and needed money. Medeiros told police he stole the gun from an alleged drug dealer and said he shot toward officers because he did not want to go back to prison. He thought the shootings would deter police from chasing them. Medeiros and Garcia Hernandez were booked into jail in lieu of $500,000 and $250,000 bonds, respectively. Despite the numerous crashes and discharged bullets, no serious injuries were reported.

Annexation of church property heads to a vote BY DARRELL JACKSON Glendale Star Staff Writer
The Church of Christ, Valley Congregation, moved one step closer to annexing property for a new church as council gave consensus for 2 more acres. The annexation of the property at Northern and 83rd avenues began nearly 12 years ago. Council unanimously approved sending the topic to a future meeting for a vote on approval of the annexation into city limits. “The applicant, Church of Christ, is asking for annexation of the southwest corner on 83rd and Northern avenues to build a 16,000-square-foot church for approximately 400 people,” said David Williams, planning administrator. “This annexation process actually began in 2007 and they have been working since 2016 to build this new church there.” The church owns approximately 3 acres of vacant land at this location. One acre has been annexed into Glendale, while the 2 acres in question are part of a Maricopa County island. All
of this property is intended to be incorporated into the new church site. Church officials said they intend to begin construction on the property while under the jurisdiction of Maricopa County, with hopes of the land being eventually annexed into the city limits. “Let me preface this by saying this parcel is in my district,” said Vice Mayor Joyce Clark. “This property was sold to the church with no objections from the previous land owner and I would like to the see the church improve the west side of 83rd and Northern roads.” Church officials said they are willing to enter into a pre-annexation development agreement to clarify expectations and obligations associated with the project. While council gave consensus on moving forward with the annexation, questions and concerns were addressed. “This seems good and beneficial use for this site,” said Barrel Councilman Bart Turner. “One concern is Northern Avenue is overcrowded with traffic in

the morning and evenings and what, in a few years when Northern Parkway is completed, will happen with the additional traffic.” Turner asked if a bridge over 83rd Avenue on Northern Avenue is reasonable when the project is completed. Transportation Director Trevor Ebersole said, while Northern Parkway recently broke ground on phase two from Dysart Road to 115th Avenue, construction at this location is years away. “This portion of Northern Parkway is currently under review,” Ebersole said. “It is currently being reviewed for what the need will be. We suspect it is going to be widened by one lane in each direction with right and left turn improvements. Councilmember Turner talked about an overpass, but those are study issues and are being considered.” Staff members said the pre-annexation development agreement would make sure the property is developed in accordance with the city’s development standards. It would include language that states the church and city understand that annexation is a legislative process and nothing in the pre-an-
nexation development agreement shall be construed as requiring the Glendale City Council approve the annexation petition. “I am in favor of moving forward and do not believe traffic will be an issue because churches usually meet on weekends and evenings and I do not believe it will impact traffic to a big extent,” said Sahuaro Councilman Ray Malnar. “I believe traffic flow for a church would not have a high impact on traffic during rush-hour times.”

PUSD authorizes bond, What bond could be used for if placed on ballot overrides committee BY CAROLYN DRYER Glendale Star Editor
Peoria Unified School District Governing Board had more than the repurposing of the former Challenger Space Center building on its January 24 agenda. Added to its list was a decision to either forego authorizing the formation of a bond and override advisory committee or move forward with a committee to research the viability of calling for a bond and/or override election for Tuesday, November 5. The governing board was presented with the demographics of 10 of the original 13 members of the 2018 advisory committee; five males and five females. Five of those are parent/community members and five are district employees. Six reside south of Bell Road and four reside north of Bell Road. Three placements are to be selected from the original committee list “to provide a broad and balanced perspective.” PUSD Chief Operations Officer John Croteau said there are 47 interested on the advisory list with 34 left from which to choose three replacements for those that dropped out. Croteau said the advisory committee has a clerical person. PUSD Chief Financial Officer Michelle Myers will be taking minutes of each advisory committee meeting. May 9 will be the last committee meeting, at which time it will make its recommendation to the governing board and the committee will be terminated. Governing Board Member David Sandoval said he felt the district did a nice job of including the community. “For me,” Sandoval said, “the need is there.” Croteau said the committee would come up with a recommendation to either go to a bond election or to an override election or both. “Out together or separately?” Croteau said. “By law, if we go for an override or bond, we have to come up with an amount. They have multiple things to do in a very short time.” Sandoval said he would “hate to see a bond amount that would not cover the cost of a new school we need (or other costs).” Croteau said, “That committee will be ARIZONA HONEY run like a governing board meeting. We AVAILABLE welcome people to TOO! come.” A discussion ensued about who would
be selecting the three replacements. Two of the advisory committee members that dropped out were selected by former Governing Board Member Kathy Knecht, who was replaced by Cory Underhill in the November election. Another advisory committee member had been selected by Governing Board Member Judy Doane, who has two years left on her term. Sandoval said he would not be opposed to adding two more to the list to make the committee total 15. But the governing board did not respond to his suggestion. Ceja-Martinez said the advisory committee would stay at 13. Ceja-Martinez then decided to give Underhill, Doane and PUSD District Superintendent Linda Palles-Thompson each a selection. Palles-Thompson mentioned the fact there were no members on the advisory committee from Glendale. She also commented she would not like to know the individual she selected. Croteau said the committee would follow the same rules as a governing board, which allows that procedure. The vote by the governing board was 5-0 in favor of moving forward and putting the advisory committee into action. The first meeting date for the advisory committee was held. The remaining proposed meetings dates are 4 to 6 p.m. Tuesdays on the following dates February 12, March 5, March 26, April 2, April 16 and May 9. All meetings will be held at the District Administration Center, 6330 W. Thunderbird Road. The committee does not just hold meetings and discuss options. It must also file a written report. The governing board will receive committee updates by way of written reports from district administration following each committee meeting, in addition to public meeting minutes that will be posted on the district’s website, www.pusdaz.org. The governing board is scheduled to receive a final report and recommendation — go forward with a bond election; go forward with an override election; or go forward with both; or do not go forward with either a bond or override election — at its Thursday, May 9, regular governing board meeting. All governing board regular meetings begin at 6 p.m.

SHELTON’S OPINION – cartoons.com
BY BRYAN GIBSON
CEO, Maricopa Ambulance
Building an effective, efficient emergency medical services system doesn’t happen in a vacuum. It only happens with close collaboration and partnership between ambulance service staff, fire department personnel, municipalities and hospitals willing and all working together to engage and improve. We believe it’s that spirit of teamwork that is leading to many new communities joining with Maricopa Ambulance as a partner to integrate their emergency system. In the first quarter of 2019, Maricopa Ambulance is kicking into high gear and expanding more than 33 percent in vehicles and staffing to serve new communities with 911 response and new major health care systems in the Valley. The city of Glendale staff has recommended Maricopa Ambulance to serve its citizens with 911 response, and Glendale City Council will soon have
the opportunity to vote to confirm the contract. Our highest-scoring proposal to the city of Glendale offers new, customized ambulances with Bryan Gibson advanced new (Submitted photo) safety technology, an experienced local leadership with a proven track record of success and an emphasis on customer service and patient care. Serving the people of Glendale is a responsibility we appreciate and will take very seriously. We believe the best evidence of the high-quality service the Glendale community will receive is our performance and service to the communities and hospital partners that have already joined with us. Since we began providing service in Scottsdale nearly a year ago, response times have improved,

thanks to our excellent staff working in partnership with the Scottsdale Fire Department. In August, the comprehensive in-vehicle safety technology in Maricopa Ambulance’s Scottsdale 911 ambulance fleet was recognized with a national EMS award by the American Ambulance Association for Patient and Employee Safety. These industry-leading safety solutions, which include lane departure, collision avoidance, traffic pre-emption devices, driver behavior monitoring and drowsy-driving prevention technology, throughout our 911 fleet in the Valley — a significant but important investment in protecting our employees, patients and communities. I am proud to say our efforts have not only saved lives, but they have also helped to bring additional communities into our family of service. The city of Goodyear hired Maricopa Ambulance, and we start serving that community this month. Maricopa Ambulance also provides backup 911 service to the city of Surprise Fire Department in addition to providing interfacility transport to hospitals across the Valley. In October 2016, we received a certificate of necessity from the state of
Arizona Department of Health Service, who thoroughly evaluated and approved our credentials, leadership and financial capabilities. By the end of 2019, Maricopa Ambulance will have invested more than $28.6 million in improving EMS response to communities and hospitals in Maricopa County. To ensure quality service, we plan to hire an additional 80 paramedics and emergency medical technicians this month, increasing our total field team to more than 325 EMTs and paramedics to serve our new customers and patients. Competition has created an atmosphere that compels us to invest in the latest technologies and hire the best people. We are happy to rise to that challenge, because our communities deserve the best EMS service possible. Above all else, we are in the business of saving lives. When minutes matter, “good enough” is never enough. That’s why we closely monitor service and constantly upgrade. We look forward to bringing this commitment to continuous improvement to the city of Glendale and to other communities, hospitals and citizens in the Valley.

READERS’ VIEWPOINTS LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Tired of taxes
Editor: Got a problem? Just tax the people. The hypocrisy of the no-tax Legislature. As a result, Arizona lags far behind in terms of how it takes care of its citizens. The remnants of the Grover Norquist no-taxers are still active in the Legislature. Except when there’s money to be made by cronies. Then they discover a need. For years, HURF funds (Highway User Revenue Funds) were swept to cover nontransportation expenses created by tax cuts. Consequently, roads and streets have deteriorated into potholes and rough pavement, water-damaged roads. It almost seems like a well-planned scheme. So now the time is ripe to advocate for a gas tax hike and the betting is that people will agree and push for a tax on gas. Starve the road budgets and then claim, which has been done, “the system is crumbling.” Had HURF been used for road building and repairs, as was the original intent, maybe we wouldn’t have a “huge problem” where “we are the seventh most deadly state in the country for rural road deaths.” Additionally, on a related matter, SB 1001 is moving through the Legislature and the bill that created the public safety fee last session will be repealed, or if not, HB 2320 may cut the fee so it will not exceed $18. Why is it always the general public, many who are struggling to make ends meet, which have to pay for the errors by which we elect to protect our interests? Got a problem? No problem. We’ll just tax the people seems to be the fallback position. Angel Rodriguez Glendale
Thank you
Editor: I am writing to thank Glendale residents for sharing the true meaning of Christmas with children in need this past holiday season. Because of the generosity of donors in Glendale and across the United States, Operation Christmas Child, a project of Samaritan’s Purse, collected more than 8.8 million shoeboxes in 2018. Combined with those collected from partnering countries in 2018, the ministry is now sending more than 10.6 million shoebox gifts to children suffering from poverty, natural disasters, war, disease and famine. These simple gifts bring smiles to the faces of children around the world.
Packed with fun toys, school supplies and hygiene items, these gifts bring joy and are a tangible expression of God’s love. Since 1993, Operation Christmas Child has collected and delivered more than 157 million gift-filled shoeboxes to children in more than 160 countries and territories. It’s not too late for people to make a difference. Though drop-off locations serving Glendale shoebox packers are closed until November, anyone can still pack a personalized shoebox gift online at samaritanspurse.org/buildonline. Information about year-round volunteer opportunities can also be found at samaritanspurse.org/ volunteerwithOCC. Thank you again to everyone who participated in this global project — many who do so year after year. These simple gifts send a message to children worldwide that they are loved and not forgotten.

Respects Trump as a person Editor and David Leibowitz: This is a letter to the editor in response to the column published in The Glendale Star on Janaury 31 entitled “Hard to Understand Why Anyone Would Like Trump” by Mr. Leibowitz. You asked the question why anyone would like Trump. Here is my answer. Yes, I would like to play a round a golf with him and hang out. I admire him. I admire him because he is a good father. I say that because all of his children grew up with fame, having the name Trump, great education and, of course, the money. How do most celebrity children turn out who have all of that? Most of them get into drugs and alcohol or end up in jail and in trouble for something. But not Trump’s children. With having all of that money, they grew up relatively normal. I think that goes back to their upbringing, and having a father figure like Trump. He taught them the right way to do things. His children today are leaders in industry. This goes back to having a father like Trump. Yes, I would like to get to know him on a personal level. I respect him as a person and as a father. James MacNamara Glendale

Katy Engels shines at managing downtown BY DARRELL JACKSON Glendale Star Staff Writer
Two years after taking the job of downtown development director, Katy Engels is continuing her success of bringing local businesses together. “The first half of my first year on the job was challenging in the sense of learning the politics that went along with the position,” Engels said. “I expected there to be some challenges with this being a new contract for the city and with me being new to the community. There are a lot of passionate merchants and stakeholders that embraced me and my position while others felt my position wasn’t needed or wanted.” The second half of the first year, she worked hard to improve communication and build subcommittees to understand downtown area’s needs. “I believe we are taking the right steps to help make downtown a more economically sustainable downtown,” Engels said. “I’ve enjoyed getting to meet everyone and finding out their wants, needs

and visions. I believe the toughest part of my job is not being able to give everyone everything they want or what they feel they deserve.” Engels joined the Glendale Chamber of Commerce after being executive director of the Waterford, Wisconsin,

Chamber of Commerce. In Wisconsin, she worked directly with the community’s small, independent merchants, as well as local and regional economic development and tourism agencies to assist with revitalization efforts. Glendale City Council voted unanimously in 2017 to approve a five-year contract for $610,510 for the creation of a new downtown manager position that would fall under the supervision of Glendale Chamber of Commerce in a public-private partnership. As she begins her third year on the job, Engels points to three issues she will focus on trying to improve in the downtown area. The first is working with the strategic leadership advisory group to move downtown forward with branding efforts. That will make it a vibrant and thriving area for shopping, dining and entertainment, she said. “Also, I’d like to work with merchants and the city to develop brand cohesiveness and jointly promote Experience Downtown Glendale to help bring more people to downtown Glendale for experiential experiences,” she said. “I will also work with the city’s economic development office and develop a listing of available spaces/property for sale or lease and share this on the downtown website so potential prop-

erty owners/merchants can see what is available at any given time. The Safety and Beautification Advisory groups are championing this effort to help reduce the number of vacant storefronts.” Glendale Chamber of Commerce recently reported to councilmembers that Engels had fulfilled the first-year deliverables as required and has accomplished additional achievements for the greater benefit of downtown. Glendale Chamber of Commerce President and CEO Robert Heidt pointed to the success of data collection and getting businesses together in discussions at numerous meetings. “Part of what (Engels) has done is to provide useful knowledge on how to grow downtown businesses,” Heidt said. “We provided meetings for business owners to grow their business through social media and the point is to give those businesses instant knowledge to put into place to make them better.” Engels said she also hopes to get more promotion from outside downtown to help improve foot traffic to the area. “I see more outside promoters hosting their events in downtown Glendale; more visitors, new businesses opening their doors, and the downtown community continuing to be collectively engaged,” Engels said. However, she cites improving communication among city staff, business owners and the chamber as her greatest success. “I believe this first year’s success is getting into place an organization of like-minded people that wasn’t there a year prior. Communication has been key in making this happen,” Engels said. “The downtown businesses and stakeholders meet monthly and advisory groups have been formed from these meetings, i.e., Strategic Leadership Advisory Group, Safety and Beautification Advisory Group, Signature Events Advisory Group, and Events Advisory Group, all specific to downtown issues and needs.”

Don’t wait for Valentine’s Day to say ‘I love you’ Valentine’s Day will be with us soon. Did you ever wonder where Valentine’s Day started? I began researching and couldn’t find anything based in fact. First there were a number of men called Valentine at different times and places. But there is one story that appears to be more likely than the other as to the origin of our Valentine holiday. Valentine of Rome was a priest around 500 A.D. The emperor, Claudius II, prohibited young men from marrying because he believed they made better soldiers if they weren’t hitched. Valentine went ahead, marrying young lovers in secret. He was arrested for disobeying the emperor and jailed. It was believed Valentine could heal people. Asturias, his jailer, brought his blind daughter to see him in hopes he could heal her. They fell in love and before he was executed, Valentine asked for pen and paper and wrote the words, “from your Valentine” and 2,000 years later, we celebrate Valentine’s Day. But more likely the florist and candy makers got together and created it. Before they moved the Glendale Justice Court to Surprise, many young couples showed up on February 14 wanting to be married. One day, I had 30 couples who wanted to be married. Thank goodness my wife and daughter were there to help me. While I was
LESSONS FROM THE BENCH Retired Judge Quentin Tolby
saying a few words to one couple in courtroom 1, they were positioning another couple in courtroom 2. I dashed from one courtroom to the other, and that went on for hours. On another Valentine’s Day, local Glendale merchants offered a free wedding to promote downtown. A photographer offered free pictures, a florist offered complimentary flowers. The old — now gone — Sandy’s Dream Doll Cottage offered its gazebo for the wedding and many other merchants added to the wedding gifts for the bride and groom. A local radio station promoted it on the air and held a drawing. The winners were announced, and when they showed up for the wedding, they realized they left their marriage license at home in East Mesa. Needless to say, they had to come back to my home the next day to redo the ceremony and signatures. Lesson: It does not have to be Valentine’s Day to tell someone you love them.

Apollo High graduate assists Army in Africa BY DARRELL JACKSON Glendale Star Staff Writer
John Pham knew he wanted to join the military after he graduated from Apollo High School in 2017. He has excelled in his short time in the U.S. Army. “My grandfather served during Vietnam and I wanted to follow in his footsteps,” Pham said during a phone call from Africa, where he is based. “It was also an easy way to pay for my college. “Yeah, I just like being on the ground. I didn’t want to be on the sea or in the air, so Army was my choice.” In his short time in the military, Pham has risen to the rank of private first class, and is a transportation management coordinator for the 384th Movement Control Team (MCT). Deployed to Air Base 101 in Niamey, Niger, he is assisting the French military’s “Relief in Place.” His unit is on temporary assignment to Vicenza, Italy, to support U.S. Army Africa. “The RIP is a large French mission as part of Operation Barkhane, a mul-
tinational mission countering violent extremism across west and central Africa,” said Pham’s supervisor, Capt. James Sheehan. Operation Barkhane is an ongoing anti-insurgent operation in Africa’s Sahel region, which commenced in August 2014. It consists of 3,000-strong French force, which will be permanent and headquartered in N’Djamena, the capital of Chad. The operation has been designed with five countries, and former French colonies, that span the Sahel: Burkina Faso, Chad, Mali, Mauritania and Niger. Those countries are collectively referred to as the “G5 Sahel,” named after a crescent-shaped dune in the Sahara Desert. It is “to become the French pillar of counterterrorism in the Sahel region,” and, according to French Defense Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian, the main objective of Operation Barkhane is counter-terrorism. Pham manages paperwork and distributes rations and supplies. “The shipments are full of lots of
equipment and supplies and I need to make sure they get to all the soldiers on the ground.” Sheehan added, “Pvt. Pham has a pretty thankless job, but he is perfect for the job because he is really quiet but focused on the mission at hand. He is a really confident soldier in this environment in Africa and he gets the job done out in these conditions.” Every couple weeks, the French change out equipment and cargo and it’s called “Relief in Place.” During this time, thousands of French soldiers and millions of dollars’ worth of equipment move from Europe A 2017 Apollo High School graduate, Pfc.

leads the team with 11 goals and 24 assists (35 points) in the first 50 games. Ekman-Larsson was second with 26 points (6 goals, 20 assists) while Alex Galchenyuk finished the first half with 25 points (8 g, 17 a). Derek Stepan (10 g, 13 a), Richard Panik (10 g, 11 a) and Vinnie Hinostroza (7 g, 11 a) all shined in extended playing time due to the injuries and played well on the ice. With so many key players out, the Coyotes have been forced to rely on players who have taken on larger roles. Conor Garland has had an immediate impact, scoring nine goals — one with his face — with three assists in 23 games. Darcy Kuemper has played well since Raanta’s injury and Ilya Lyubushkin has been solid on defense. Veterans have been key in helping the younger kids improve daily, and Tocchet has said Ekman-Larsson, Derek Stepan and Niklas Hjalmarsson have been key in getting better play from the young skaters. “I had a meeting with those guys last month and told them I’m going to really need you guys to preach what we’re saying,” Tocchet said. “We have a lot of young guys and they’re going to be looking for direction. They’re going to get tired of hearing my voice, and we really need you guys to step up. They’ve done a terrific job in being an extension of the coaching staff, made sure the younger players have bought in.” Players who have played limited
time this season, including Brad Richardson, Christian Dvorak, Jason Demers and Galchenyuk, are expected to return as the second half of the season gets underway. While the Coyotes are not expected to make a big splash at the trade deadline February 25, the return of the players from injuries could be considered a bigger plus. But, Chayka added they will listen to possible offers and could consider adding a player or two at the deadline. “We’ve been preparing for the trade deadline, or the opportunity to make some moves, all season,” Chayka said. “I think where we’re at, we’re looking for moves that make sense not only in the short term here but moves that make sense in the long term.” Chyka added, though, the team will not look for a player on an expiring contract but someone who could remain long-term. “We’re not looking at the rental market as strongly as maybe other teams are,” Chayka said. “I think we’re looking to improve our group; if there’s a move out there that makes sense to do so, we will. I’m having a lot of discussions right now. Right now’s a very active time and I think you’re laying a lot of the groundwork that hopefully in the next few weeks you find one or two good opportunities that will help add to your group, supplement your group and help us kind of make a push now and into the future.”

Hotshots taking aim at championship debut season BY DARRELL JACKSON Glendale Star Staff Writer
As the Alliance of American Football League prepares for the inaugural kickoff February 9, Arizona is part of the league with the Arizona Hotshots, who will play their home games at Arizona State University’s Sun Devil Stadium. While the competition is not expected to match the level of the National Football League, quite a few NFL veterans found their way into the new upstart league. As the Hotshots don’t have the biggest names in the AAF, they still have several intriguing players and are expected to be competitive throughout the 2019 season. Co-founded by Charlie Ebersol and Bill Polian, the AAF will act as an alternative professional football league to the NFL. It won’t work quite the same — there are significantly fewer teams, different rules, a 12-week season, and the player pool is made up of NFL athletes who have been cut, and former CFL and undrafted college players. Unlike the United States Football League (USFL) of the 1980s, the AAF isn’t meant to compete with the NFL — at least not directly. Instead, it’s meant to offer a form of televised football with a fantasy league option during the NFL’s offseason, and paid opportunities for athletes who find themselves out of the NFL. “Our objective is to take some of those people who can’t quite make it and make them into quality NFL players,” Ebersol said. What are the differences in the AAF and the NFL? The AAF is an eightteam league with rule changes aimed at player safety. Some of those include a shorter play clock (30 seconds opposed to the NFL’s 40 seconds); no extra-point kicks as all teams must go for two-point conversions, and no kickoffs or onside kicks as teams start with the ball at the 25-yard line. Should a team want an onside kick attempt, they must convert a fourth-down play from their own 35-yard line. The AAF has names in place, with head coaches, including Rick Neuheisel (Arizona Hotshots), Mike Singletary (Memphis Express), Steve Spurrier (Orlando Apollos), Dennis Erickson (Salt Lake Stallions), Mike Riley (San Antonio Commanders), Kevin Coyle (Atlanta Legends) and Mike Martz (San Diego Fleet). Neuheisel said after an early practice
52-player roster set. Top players are quarterback Trevor Knight and former Arizona Wildcat linebacker Scooby Wright. The Hotshots drafted former Oklahoma and Texas A&M dual-threat quarterback Knight in the first round of the AAF quarterback draft instead of protecting former Arizona State quarterback Mike Bercovici, who is in San Diego. Knight was picked up by the Arizona Cardinals as an unsigned free agent in 2017, but did not stick with the team. Knight played in three pre-season games for the Linebacker Sione Teuhema is expected to lead a strong Arizona Cardinals in 2017, passing Hotshots defense during their inaugural season in the Alliance for 87 yards and no touchof American Football.

Also on defense, tackle Arizona State alumni Will Sutton, defensive tackle Siupeli Anau (Northern Arizona), linebacker Carl Bradford (Arizona State), defensive tackle Marcus Hardison (Arizona State) and defensive back Robert Nelson Jr. (Arizona State) lead a defense that has an Arizona feel to it. “Competitiveness, which I think I’ve seen and have evidence of, and the mechanics of the game in terms of organization and transitioning to the special teams,” Neuheisel said. “The organization and transitioning in situations as play callers, the personnel substitutions, so we look welloiled so we don’t have to use timeouts because we’re confused. All of that is painstaking to get up to speed game ready.” The Hotshots will play in the Western Conference with Salt Lake, San Antonio and San Diego, where San Antonio is the early favorite. San Diego is a close second, while Arizona is expected to be competitive and challenge for a playoff spot. If Knight can connect with his receivers, and the running backs show they have the talent to play, the offense should be strong early. The defense should be the strong point of the team and if the offense can connect, the Hotshots have a shot at a playoff spot in the inaugural season of the AAF.

Business Briefcase
BY CONNOR DZIAWURA Glendale Star Assistant Editor
Hello, readers! We have a 50-50 week on our hands today. That’s 50-percent new Glendale locates and 50-percent networking-friendly chamber of commerce events. These two new businesses opened somewhat recently, so you may have even passed by or stopped in. But if not, you’ll find more details as we continue. Beyond that, it’s no surprise that the chamber of commerce keeps the events coming. Many of its events are recurring – with changing focuses each week, month or whatever frequency in which they occur – so this week’s features will be new Business Briefcase inclusions. Here’s the news! First, let’s start with the two aforementioned businesses. For one, Brooklyn Bedding has a new showroom at 7480 W. Bell Road, Suite 106, near the northeast corner of Bell Road and 75th Avenue. Oper-
ating in various states nationwide, the mattress manufacturer offers plenty of types for individuals with different sleep patterns. Whether you’re in the market for something firm or you just wish to sink into its surface, Brooklyn Bedding likely has you covered. Beyond mattresses, it offers accessories like pillows, sheets and more. For more information, visit brooklynbedding. com/showrooms/arizona/glendale-arrowhead.
Also, Build-A-Bear Bakeshop has a location at Arrowhead Towne Center. We all know the related custom stuffed animal shop, Build-A-Bear Workshop, I assume, but what about “Bakeshop?” Well, it’s the same idea – only this time, it’s with baked goods.
Plan your own party where you can see what tempting and mouthwatering sweets are available to which you can add your own flair. Located at 7700 W. Arrowhead Towne Center, Suite K104, its website shows it’s the fourth location nationwide – and first in Arizona. The bakeshop is on the lower level of Arrowhead Towne Center, in front of the Dick’s Sporting Goods wing and next to Build-A-Bear Workshop. Arrowhead Towne Center is located off Bell Road, between the Loop 101 and 75th Avenue. For more information on what the Build-A-Bear Bakeshop experience includes, visit buildabear. com/bakeshop.html. Switching focus to spotlight events, the Glendale Chamber of Commerce and Thryv have a Lunch and Learn coming up. This one, from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. Tuesday, February 12, is focused on Social Media for Small Business.

lated topics. Guests will meet in the BNC National Bank’s conference room, 5800 W. Glenn Drive, Suite 275. Lunch and learn is held the first Tuesday of every month, and each session covers a different topic. Attendance is free but space is limited. For more information, contact Bre Pope at 623937-4754 or bpope@glendaleazchamber.org. How does one more sound for good measure? The chamber’s recurring Business After Hours event returns from 5 to 7 p.m. Tuesday, February 19. This one will be located at Alaska USA Federal Credit Union, 5551 W. Talavi Boulevard. Essentially a friendly networking event for chamber members and their guests to gather and mingle, it is encouraged that attendees bring business cards or other promotional materials. There are some notable details about the pricing, so listen up: If you RSVP by the Monday prior to the event (that’s Monday, February 18), it’s free. But if you’re looking to sign up the week of, or at the door, prices increase to $20. If you’re interested in attending and aren’t a chamber member yet but are looking to become one in the future, it costs $60. For more information, contact Robert Heidt at 623-937-4754 or rheidt@glendaleazchamber.org. That’s all the briefs for this week. Thanks for reading, and stay tuned because there’s more where that came from.

Olive Garden manager considers staff ‘family’ BY CAROLYN DRYER Glendale Star Editor
Jaime Rivera has a strong handshake and a quick smile. He enjoys his job as general manager of the Olive Garden on the southwest corner of 95th and Glendale avenues. Residents might think it is in Westgate; others will say, “No, it’s in the Tanger Outlet shopping center.” No matter who’s right, it’s just right for Rivera, who has been working with Olive Garden for 18 years. He brought his family to Arizona to get away from the clutter in California and never turned back. “I passed by the Olive Garden on 75th Avenue and Thomas Road and saw the sign, ‘Now hiring,’” Rivera said. “I’m so glad I stopped. I filled out an application and they hired me as a server.” He had the experience; he worked at a family-owned restaurant in California for 16 years. “I was looking for a better life for my kids out of state,” he said. “It was too crowded. There’s a lot of opportunity anywhere, but Arizona, I felt was a better opportunity for my kids, my family. Also, better education, believe it or not. Arizona is not 3 or 4 percent at the top in education, but I believe it has more for kids to do. Wide open, growing up so big.” He brought his entire family with him; at that time, he had five children, the youngest of whom was 12. His
He’s been a service manager for seven years, and has 17 years of experience as a culinary manager, including his time in California. He spent 10 years as culinary manager with Olive Garden, and he believes he knows the secret behind Olive Garden’s success. “Presentation and taste are the keys to a great meal,” Rivera said. “We have so many ingredients.” He’s learned about Olive Jaime Rivera enjoys his new position as Olive Garden’s general manager at 95th Garden, movand Glendale avenues.

It appears, as Rivera said, the restau-
rant business “comes in the blood, all the way down to my five brothers.” His oldest son, named after him, is also a restaurant manager. With two children still at home and attending classes at Independence High School, four are pursuing one degree or another in the medical field. All received scholarships for college; one to Grand Canyon University, three to Glendale Community College. “I’m busy but I’m happy,” Rivera said. “I love family, my mortar. It makes me get up, motivated and go far. I want to keep on hiring great people for our guests.” As his name tag reads, “We’re all family here,” Rivera said his employees — all 140 — are held to high standards and treated with respect. His favorite dish? “A classic dish we’ve had forever — breaded chicken parmesan. The taste, the melted cheese on top, it’s a great dish combined with marinara sauce,” he said. If he could sum up his career, “My passion for guests, it’s very, very there. I always have passion. It’s one of the things that makes me move on. I make them laugh and my happiness when I finish the day, I say, ‘Today was a win. Everybody’s happy,’ and that’s my goal — make everybody happy.” To get a taste of Rivera’s happiness, stop by the Olive Garden at 95th and Glendale avenues from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. Sunday through Thursday; 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. Friday and Saturday.

The City has determined it is in the public’s interest to abandon this right-of-way since it is no longer needed for the health, welfare and safety of its citizens.
MDHearingAid® uses the same kind of Advanced Hearing Aid Technology incorporated into hearing aids that cost thousands more at a small fraction of the price. Over 300,000 satisfied MDHearingAid customers agree: High-quality, FDAregistered hearing aids don’t have to cost a fortune. The fact is, you don’t need to spend thousands for a hearing aid. MDHearingAid is a medical-grade hearing aid offering sophistication and high performance, and works right out of the box with no time-consuming “adjustment” appointments. You can contact a licensed hearing specialist conveniently online or by phone — even after your purchase at no cost. No other company provides such extensive support. Now that you know...why pay more? Can a Hearing Aid Delay or Prevent Alzheimer’s and Dementia? A study by the National Institute on Aging suggests older individuals with hearing loss are significantly more likely to develop Alzheimer’s and dementia over time than those who retain their hearing. They suggest that an intervention — such as a hearing aid — could delay or prevent this by improving hearing!

Each Authorized Officer is hereby authorized (a) to make or effect any election, selection, designation, choice, consent, approval, or waiver on behalf of the City with respect to the Tax-Exempt Bonds as the City is permitted or required to make or give under the federal income tax laws, including, without limitation thereto, any of the elections provided for or available under Section 148 of the Code, for the purpose of assuring, enhancing or protecting favorable tax treatment or status of the Tax-Exempt Bonds or interest thereon or assisting compliance with requirements for that purpose, reducing the burden or expense of such compliance, reducing the rebate amount or payments of penalties, or making payments of special amounts in lieu of making computations to determine, or paying, excess earnings as rebate, or obviating those amounts or payments, as determined by that officer, which action shall be in writing and signed by the officer, (b) to take any and all other actions, make or obtain calculations, make payments, and make or give reports, covenants and certifications of and on behalf of the City, as may be appropriate to assure the exclusion of interest from gross income and the intended tax status of the Tax-Exempt Bonds, and (c) to give one or more appropriate certificates of the City for inclusion in the transcript of the proceedings for the Tax-Exempt Bonds, setting forth the reasonable expectations of the City regarding the amount and use of all the proceeds of the Tax-Exempt Bonds, the facts, circumstances and estimates on which they are based, and other facts and circumstances relevant to the tax treatment of the interest on and the tax status of the Tax-Exempt Bonds. Section 19. Further Actions. All actions of the officers and agents of the City which are in conformity with the purposes and intent of this Ordinance and in furtherance of the issuance and sale of the Bonds as contemplated by this Ordinance whether heretofore or hereafter taken shall be and are hereby ratified, confirmed and approved. The Mayor, each Authorized Officer and the City Clerk and other appropriate officers and agents of the City are hereby authorized and directed to do all such acts and things and to execute and deliver all such documents on behalf of the City as may be necessary to carry out the terms and intent of this Ordinance. Section 20. All Conditions Met. This Council determines that all acts and conditions necessary under the Act and other applicable laws to be performed by the City or to have been met precedent to and in the issuing of the Bonds in order to make them legal, valid and binding special obligations of the City, have been performed and met, or will at the time of delivery of the Bonds have been performed and met, in regular and due form as required by law; and that no statutory, charter or constitutional limitation of indebtedness or taxation will have been exceeded in the issuance of the Bonds. Section 21. Open Meeting. This Council finds and determines that all formal actions of this Council concerning and relating to the passage of this Ordinance were taken in an open meeting of this Council and that all deliberations of this Council and of any committees that resulted in those formal actions were in meetings open to the public, in compliance with all legal requirements. Section 22. Severability. If any section, paragraph, clause or provision of this Ordinance shall be held to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason, the invalidity or unenforceability of such section, paragraph, clause or provision shall not affect any of the remaining provisions of this Ordinance. Section 23. Ordinance a Contract. This Ordinance shall constitute a contract between the City and the registered owners of the Bonds and shall not be repealed or amended in any manner which would impair, impede or lessen the rights of the registered owners of the Bonds then outstanding.
