Avondale OKs funding for new aquatic center BY LAUREN SERRATO

West Valley View Staff Writer

vondale City Council approved funding for a new aquatic center during a meeting on July 5. The proposed aquatic center stemmed from a citizen survey included in the 2017 Parks, Recreation, Libraries and Trails Master Plan. Respondents were asked for the three future project improvements that were most important. One of the top responses was to develop a new outdoor aquatic center. “When they did the Parks, Recreation, Libraries and Trails Master Plan back in 2017, an outdoor aquatic center was on the minds of our citizens,” said Bryan Hughes, the city’s director of parks and recreation. “We try to use those plans to kind of guide what we do. So, this was an opportunity. But I think an aquatic center was a priority for this council, and they wanted to see it happen.” The development of the proposed aquatic center will take place in the Avondale Civic Center Complex. The facility will

include, according to the city council report, the design and development of a complex with a competition pool with diving boards; play pool; bath house with locker rooms and multi-purpose rooms; and recreational features such as water slides, aquatic play units, lazy river or other features as determined through public outreach. Following the opening of the recreation campus in Goodyear, Hughes said the new aquatic center will draw similar attention and buzz. “I think having something in your own city is something to be excited about, something to be proud of, and I think we’ll get a good response once it’s built,” he said. According to the report, the aquatic center will “bring the

Bryan Hughes, Avondale’s director of parks and recreation since May 2020, said the city can expect the aquatic center to open in spring 2023. Hughes has more than 20 years’ experience in parks and recreation management.

Suspect arrested in connection with crash BY CHRISTINA FUOCO-KARASINSKI West Valley View Executive Editor

35-year-old woman was arrested July 8 in connection with a three-vehicle collision that killed a family of six and injured ﬁve on the I-10 in Tonopah. Iyona Holton was booked into the Mar-

icopa County Jail on multiple charges, including four counts of aggravated assault, a Class 2 felony; one count of possession of dangerous drugs, a Class 6 felony; and one count of possession of drug paraphernalia, a Class 6 felony. According to the Department of Public Safety, the collision involved two passen-

ger vehicles and a commercial tractor-trailer on the eastbound I-10 at milepost 82 near Tonopah at 1:30 p.m. July 2. DPS investigators determined the two passenger vehicles — a GMC Envoy and a Nissan Altima — were traveling

Crash...continued from page 1 west on I-10 on a road trip to California. Both vehicles drove into and through the dirt median, a marked “No U-Turn” zone, to turn around and travel east on I-10. As the GMC and Nissan entered the eastbound travel lanes, they were struck by a commercial tractor-trailer. As a result of the collision, the GMC and Nissan sustained significant damage. The GMC’s driver, Holton, and her four children — a 2-year-old, two 10-year-olds and a 14-year-old — were transported to nearby hospitals with serious injuries. Holton was arrested when she was discharged. The driver of the Nissan, identified as 35-year-old Phoenix resident Natisha Nicole Moffett, and her five children suffered fatal injuries and were declared deceased at the scene. The Michigan native’s children were Jo’syia, 17; Giovanni and Santari, 16; Malik Jr., 8; and Makayla, 5. Moffett’s mother, Ynes Morrow, organized a GoFundMe fundraiser to cover the cost of returning the family

to Grand Rapids, Michigan, for burial. Moffett’s husband and father of three of her children, Malik Thomas-Blakney, told Fox 17 that he misses them already. “They taught me unconditional love,” he said. “No matter what you go through in life — no matter what — family is first.” According to the GoFundMe page, Moffett and her family relocated to Phoenix two years ago to “follow her dreams.” Holton, whom Morrow described on GoFundMe as Moffett’s best friend, got a flat tire, and Moffett followed her into the median to help. Moffett attempted to get out of the car to provide aid when she was struck by the truck driver. The collision “pushed her body into both her and her friend’s car and instantly caught fire and took the lives of her and her children,” Morrow said on the website. “Please hear my cry out because, as a mother, I need a village for this one,” Morrow said. “I’m broken.” The GoFundMe page was recently updated, and Morrow asked for “justice.”

The Avondale Civic Center has been identified as the preferred location for the proposed aquatic center. According to the council report, to create synergy between the existing Civic Center facilities and the proposed aquatic center, staff is planning to move forward with the design of the Civic Center Park on the vacant parcel adjacent to the Civic Center Library. The design and development of the parcel as a park would help complete the Civic Center as a recreation and cultural destination for Avondale residents and visitors, according to the plan. The aquatic center facility would also provide the opportunity to host swim meets, increasing tourism to the city and the hospitality industry. The project is estimated to be developed in two phases: design and development. The design phase, including public input, will last approximately six to nine months beginning in September, according to the report. A construction manager at risk will be

brought on board by 30% of design, and preconstruction will take place concurrently through the remainder of design. The construction of the aquatic center is estimated to take approximately 12 to 15 months. The set target date for opening to the public is spring 2023. The facility is anticipated to cost $16 million for construction and up to $1.1 million for annual operating costs, depending on the duration of the operating season. The Avondale Aquatic Center was not included in the FY 2020 budget. However, funding of $6 million in FY 2022 and $10 million in FY 2023 for development of the proposed Avondale Aquatic Center will come from a combination of general fund cash revenues and excise tax bonds. “Obviously when you have a project of this magnitude it’s going to take a couple of years and a couple of budget cycles for it to be built, and so our finance team was able to find $6 million to start with, to get this going,” Hughes said. “Then using some general fund cash reserves, and then we’ll also use some excise tax bonds to fund the remaining of it when we get into the next fiscal year. Basically, we’ve identified some savings. And that’ll help get this started. We’ll bring it to completion in the next fiscal year’s budget.” The bond issuance will be presented to the city council for approval on a future date. The aquatic center’s action plan noted one goal, stating that the facility will “make Avondale a destination for events, activities and tournaments to promote economic development.” Hughes said this facility will meet the recommendations made by residents based on the results of the citizen survey and provide an additional amenity to a city that’s continuing to grow. “It brings a recreational amenity that we don’t currently have. And with that comes a lot of cool programs. You have learn-to-swim programs, swim teams. It could also be a destination for swim meets, competing against other cities and towns that have recreational swim teams,” Hughes said. “It just in general brings something to the city that we don’t currently have.” The proposed Avondale Aquatic Center was approved unanimously by city council.

Litchﬁeld Park approves tentative 2022 budget BY LAUREN SERRATO

West Valley View Staff Writer

he Litchfield Park City Council approved its $45.2 million tentative budget for fiscal year 2022, and it’s more than double the 2021 budget of $19.75 million. “Our operating costs are up 19%, but that’s mostly related to the increase to public safety. Our capital budget, that’s at $31 million, but that includes the $26 million for the City Center,” said Paige Peterson, Litchfield Park’s finance director, during the July 7 meeting. Peterson confirmed that the construction of the City Center takes up a large portion of the budget. “You can see our total budget is $45.2 million, but that’s because this does include $26 million for the city center, as well as the debt payment of approximately $780,000. So that’s the reason for the big jump from $19.7 last year,” she said. The City Center design was announced in February 2020. The facility

will serve as a central hub in Litchfield Park’s downtown area, north of Wigwam Boulevard between North Litchfield and North Old Litchfield roads. The area consists of 33.5 acres, including the 4-acre City Center Park. According to the EPS Group, the multidisciplinary professional consulting firm providing land development and public works civil engineering, the new City Center will be home to the next generation of business growth as well as entertainment destinations for Litchfield Park and surrounding areas. The space is designated for commercial, office, retail and mixed-use developments. The project is expected to be completed within four years. The 2022 budget has two contingencies, Peterson pointed out in her presentation to council. “There’s two contingencies lines here on the $2,480,000 that I put in there in case any of the landfill. We’d be able to use the funds from any of the landfills, and then just another million

in contingency. The grand total budget, $45.2 million less or exclusions, and then we’re subject to $20.2 million expenditure limit,” Peterson said. In terms of the expenditure limit, it’s also more than double compared to the previous budget. “Our expenditure limitation is $20.3 million, but we can exclude $25 million from this $45 million. So the amount that will actually be subject to the expenditure limit is $20.2 million,” Peterson said. “To quickly go over what we can exclude that this $25 million makes up is the $22 million in bonds, $1.1 million HURF (highway user revenue fund), $1.1 million in debt payments — that’s

the existing debt we have — and also assuming we’ll have a City Center debt payment and then federal funds are excludable, which is the $800,000 ARP fund,” she said. The 2022 budget increase from 2021 follows the increase from the 2020 budget, however, on a much smaller scale. The 2021 budget reflected a 4% increase over 2020, which relied on reserves and contingency funds to compensate for the revenue loss during the pandemic. The budget for fiscal year 2022 is expected to formally be adopted by the city council on July 21. To view the FY2022 approved budget, visit litchfield-park.org/696/ Budgets.

Goodyear OKs further development for Ballpark Village BY LAUREN SERRATO

The area will be rezoned by adding the approximately 14 acres to the existing PAD underlying RES/MXD zoning designation.

southeast corner of Estrella Parkway and Lower Buckeye Parkway. The 14 acres is included in the City Center Airpark Planned Area Development, approved in December 2006. Given its location and because of the prior rezoning of Ballpark Village South to residential, Goodyear staff believed that the 14 acres was more appropriately zoned for uses consistent with the Ballpark Village and Ballpark Village-South PAD, according to the Planning and Zoning Commission action report. Staff sought and received approval from SunMP to rezone the 14 acres. After receiving SunMP’s approval, staff initiated a rezoning request. “Because of geographic reasons being south of Lower Buckeye Parkway and because additional multifamily developments have recently been approved within Ballpark Village-South, this 14 acres will become a part of Ballpark Village-South,” said Karen Craver, the city’s principal planner. Craver said the plan is to use the location for various retail stores to draw in locals and tourists. She added that the surrounding local attraction will beneﬁt the area, referring to locations such as the Goodyear Ballpark, the Spring Training facility for the Cleveland Indians and Cincinnati Reds. To do so, a preapplication meeting was held with Solace at Ballpark Village to determine the use of the space.

Solace at Ballpark Village is a 211unit market-rate apartment project, with three-story walk-up buildings and a central elevator-served core building with the leasing and amenity suite on the first floor. The projected opening date for the facility is August 2022. “We’ve had a preapp meeting about taking this 14 acres and doing a horizontal mixed-use project, and this is a concept plan that they provided to us for the preapp meeting,” she said. “By horizontal mixed use I mean that they’re going to have some retail parcels here along the Estrella Parkway frontage, as well as all of the multifamily here on the rest of the site, and there’ll be all sorts of vehicular and pedestrian connections between the two.” The action plan states the purpose of the proposed rezoning is two-fold. The first is to include 14 acres located at the southeast corner of Estrella Parkway and Lower Buckeye Parkway into the Ballpark Village and Ballpark Village-South PAD and allow it to be developed under the existing RES/MXD land use category. The second purpose of the proposed rezoning is to clean up the PAD. The action report indicates that the PAD amendment will promote continued orderly growth and development within the PAD by allowing an increase in the residential density that will in turn serve to attract commercial and entertainment uses to the PAD. “The amendment meets all the zoning ordinance criteria for rezone, and staff is recommending approval of the amendments subject to the stipulations in the draft ordinance,” Craver said to conclude her presentation to council.

OUR READERS’ VIEWPOINTS

KIRK’S OPINION — King Features

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Column on ballot audit ignored facts Editor: Failed sportscaster. Failed congressman. Now J.D. Hayworth can add failed columnist to his impressive resume of flops. Specifically, his latest screed, “Some thoughts on Arizona election audit,” illustrates Hayworth’s remarkable, even uncanny, ability to say nothing in 500 words. His thoughts — to be generous, let’s give him the benefit of the doubt and agree that they are indeed “thoughts” — say nothing about the validity of the Arizona audit. He doesn’t address its genesis, its multiple, often contradictory processes, its controversies, the characters involved in the audit or the question of just what the purpose of the fraudit — er, audit — is. Instead, he waxes endlessly about this and that for six paragraphs, until he gets to the meat of his rambling — the audit. At that point, he mentions “complaints were lodged and discrepancies uncovered.” The first, of course, is true. Complaints were indeed lodged — and promptly dismissed, an inconvenient fact that Hay-

worth just doesn’t want to mention. “Discrepancies uncovered,” though? Where? By whom? And what? Our intrepid columnist answers none of those, preferring an ad hominem attack on Katie Hobbs, the secretary of state Hayworth imagines “among the thistles and thorns of suspicion.” Hayworth has a way with metaphor, eh? Facts, not so much. Because once again, he fails to tell us just what the “suspicion” is. I suspect Hayworth doesn’t really know, but he enjoyed writing it. Hayworth finishes this epitome of how not to write a column by suggesting that the audit might overturn results here in Arizona.

There are no bad dogs, just bad owners BY DAVID LEIBOWITZ West Valley View Columnist

er name was Maria Eliza Sebastian Ruiz, 77 years old. She was married for 60 years, a mother of five and a grandmother. She died early July 6 on her front porch in Phoenix, mauled by a pack of four hulking Staffordshire terrier mixes. Pit bulls, to use the common parlance. The dogs’ owner, Alejandro Hernan-

dez, 33, is in jail charged with negligent homicide. It’s a Class 4 felony that carries a minimum one year behind bars — and three years, nine months max. Personally, I hope Hernandez serves every last day, because the police report details negligence in the extreme. “(Hernandez) stated the dogs belong to him and are known to escape from his backyard,” the investigator wrote. “Def. admitted to multiple occasions where his dogs escaped from his backyard and would wander around the neighborhood. “Def. admitted to prior incidents of the dogs biting other people at least two

times. Def. knew the gate from which the dogs escaped from was faulty and needed to be repaired or reinforced in order to prevent the dogs from escaping. Def. stated he did not make any changes to the gate because he did not have time.” He’ll have plenty of time now. Hernandez’s pit bulls immediately were put down by Maricopa County Animal Control. Their euthanizing was a no-brainer. But the story of Maria Eliza’s killing raises a larger question: Should Arizona cities and towns allow people to own pit bulls at all?

In 2016, the state Legislature passed Senate Bill 1248, which forbids breed-specific legislation like the pit bull bans passed by more than 900 cities nationwide. This could easily be reconsidered, in light of Maria Eliza’s death and the fact that in 2019 pit bulls accounted for 33 killings — 69% of the 48 dog bite fatalities reported nationwide. No other dog bites or kills so frequently. No other dog fills Maricopa County’s animal shelters to overflow-

OPINION

WEST VALLEY VIEW NEWS | JULY 14, 2021

Passionate experience trumps political ambition BY J.D. HAYWORTH

West Valley View Columnist

ideon J. Tucker was writing about his home state of New York when he penned this famous observation: “No man’s life, liberty or property are safe while the Legislature is in session!” What applies in Albany also fits the situation in Phoenix, and probably every other state capitol. In fact, the homogenization of our politics has state legislators sounding very similar to their Capitol Hill counterparts. Or maybe it’s just an old-fashioned dose of “Potomac Fever.” That’s certainly the case with Rep. Daniel Hernandez (D-Tucson). Having represented LD 2 since winning election in 2016, Hernandez announced in May that he would run for the U.S. House from Arizona’s second congressional district in 2022. Perhaps that’s why Hernandez appeared to parrot Nancy Pelosi during

Leibowitz...continued from page 10 ing. No other dog makes headlines so often. In February, a loose pit bull attacked three Gilbert residents, including a 16-year-old girl and a 70-year-old man. On Christmas Day 2020, a pit bull turned on its 39-year-old owner in Phoenix, tearing up her face and hands and leaving her in critical condition. Last summer, in Casa Grande, Lorenzo Hidalgo, 42, went to check on his grandmother but was met instead by three loose pit bulls. The dogs reportedly lunged at his neck. Hidalgo was airlifted to a Valley hospital, where he was filled with stitches and staples. I could go on, but you get the idea: There’s a long roll call of the maimed and the dead. Yet, on the other side of the argument, stands canine experts like the ASPCA, who argue for nurture ahead of nature. “All dogs, including pit bulls, are individuals,” reads the official ASPCA

debate on the state House floor June 25. “We keep hearing about the threat of Communism,” Hernandez harrumphed. “You know what’s a bigger threat? White nationalism!” And with that, the representative from Tucson broke into full-throated fury, conflating any and all conservatives with white nationalists’ intent on “teaching our kids that it’s OK to overthrow a democratically elected government.” So enthused were some of his fellow Democrats that they pounded their desks, apparently unaware or unconcerned that desk-pounding was often the public reaction of Soviet Communist Party boss Nikita Khrushchev during his premiership in the late 1950s and early ’60s. Back to the here and now, Hernandez was no doubt dreaming of his future as a member of Congress. But his daydream was about to be interrupted by a state House colleague who did not bring talking points to the floor. Instead, Rep. Quang Nguyen (R-Prescott Valley) carried with him the position. “Treating them as such, providing them with the care, training and supervision they require and judging them by their actions and not by their DNA or their physical appearance is the best way to ensure that dogs and people can continue to share safe and happy lives together.” Late into their 60s, my parents adopted a pit bull from the pound: Jake, a brindle behemoth who followed my mother everywhere. She was the dog’s big love in life, up there with dropped food and lying on “his couch.” Jake outlived my mom and my dad, and now resides with my brother. He’s a sweet boy, raised in a house full of love, treated with respect and care. It’s been 10 years and I’ve never heard Jake so much as growl. I view him as proof that Alejandro Hernandez deserves prison time. Because there are no inherently bad dogs, only bad owners. David Leibowitz has called the Valley home since 1995. Contact david@leibowitzsolo.com

memories of brutal communist oppression that cost the lives of loved ones in his native Vietnam. In politics and life, genuine passion surpasses contrived outrage, as Hernandez was about to learn. In the meantime, the first-term member from LD 1 first sought to temper his righteous indignation with humor. “I’m not a big talker. … I stood back there and listened to everybody and I just got irritated, so I came over here and pressed the white button. Is it OK if I say ‘white button’?” His quip-as-a-question brought much-needed laughter to the House chamber, but Rep. Nguyen soon turned serious. “White nationalism didn’t drown 250,000 Vietnamese in the South China Sea. The communists did. White nationalism didn’t execute 86,000 South Vietnamese at the fall of Saigon. The communists did. White nationalists didn’t put me here (in the United States). Communism did.

“So don’t take it lightly. … I lost most of my cousins and family members due to communism. If we don’t stand up to teaching communism to our children, we’ll lose this country.” Then Nguyen turned directly to Hernandez. “So, sir, don’t mock me.” It isn’t only Daniel Hernandez. Leftists nationwide have long mocked “godless communism,” insisting that those who are concerned are intent on reviving a “Red Scare.” Quang Nguyen knows better. Will we learn from his experience? If not, Gideon J. Tucker’s pronouncement from the past will have to be amended. “No man’s life, liberty or property are safe while the communists are in control!” J.D. Hayworth represented Arizona in the U.S. House from 1995-2007. He authored and sponsored the Enforcement First Act, legislation that would have mandated enforcement of Federal Immigration Law in the 109th Congress.

stroom will also be on-site for customers. The building itself will be accessible only to Dutch Bros. employees. Similar to other Dutch Bros. locations across the Valley, there will be a pickup window where customers can place their orders. The window will be on the north side of the building, adjacent to the patio area. Under a 75-foot-long pedestrian shade canopy will be bench seating and decorative pavement. A metal shade will be provided along the project’s 114th Avenue frontage, and a similarly styled 50-foot-long drive-thru canopy is provided along the site’s Avondale Boulevard frontage. Twenty-ﬁve on-site parking spaces will be on the east and south sides of the proposed coffee shop building. Existing on-street angled parking spaces on 114th Avenue will also be available in the event that all on-site parking spaces are in use. Councilmember Tina Conde noted in the meeting that the coffee shop will attract people to the city, allowing them to experience other places in Avondale. “I think Dutch Bros. is going to be a great anchor there in the boulevard to bring people in, to kind of bring awareness of what’s happening over there,” she said.

Getting this thing coming to our city is really good to see.” Only one standalone drive-thru use is permitted within the BLVD’s Park Avenue District; however, the approved Dutch Bros. will exhaust this allowance.

Libertas Real Estate announces commercial division Libertas Real Estate announced its new addition of its commercial real estate division, PMD Realty Group at Libertas. The company has already made a name for itself in the market throughout the greater Phoenix area, particularly in the West Valley, since its inception. PMD Realty brings to the Valley more than 24 years of combined experience in the regions of greater south Florida, Washington state and Arizona. “With the recent and anticipated growth of the West Valley, now is the time to create further opportunity for expansion and really carve out a market segment that is really just being tapped into,” said Paul Davis, principal and chairperson. “We’re thrilled to expand into this sector with such a solid source of experience that will ultimately shape the commercial market and its surrounding neighborhoods in the coming years.” Much like the Libertas residential division, PMD Realty Group at Libertas prides itself on its unique business approach that sets itself apart from oth-

Coyotes’ new coach sees a fresh start for the team BY JOE MCHUGH

West Valley View Staff Writer

fter a season in which the Arizona Coyotes barely missed the playoffs, they will start a new era with their recently hired leader, gold medal-winning coach Andre Tourigny. “I want the players to see this as a fresh start,” Tourigny said. “I don’t want to hold them accountable for what happened in the past. I think that some time in life, when you get a fresh start and get to prove yourself, you control your destiny.” The Arizona Coyotes hired Tourigny as their head coach to a three-year contract. This follows the team’s 24-266 record, landing them in fifth in the

West Division. “It is an honor to be named as the head coach of the Arizona Coyotes,” Tourigny said. “I would like to thank Mr. (Alex) Meruelo, Bill Armstrong and Xavier Gutierrez for providing me with this incredible opportunity. I am looking forward to working with this group and our players to build a winning culture here in the desert for our loyal and passionate fanbase.” Tourigny joins the Coyotes after spending time with Hockey Canada’s coaching staff as an assistant coach at the 2021 IIHF World Championship in Riga, Latvia. He was on a one-year loan to Hockey Canada from Ottawa 67’s. He inked a one-year deal in March with Hockey Canada.

Overall, Tourigny has been to four international events, making him the first full-time Hockey Canada coach since 2005. His success continued, with another gold medal victory for Canada, this time for the Men’s Under-18 Team, where it captured gold in 2018 with him as the head coach. The winning continued with his 13052-16 record as the head coach of the Ottawa 67’s. The journeyman coach has helmed a number of Canadian teams, including the Ottawa 67’s, Halifax Mooseheads and Rouyn-Noranda Huskies. As for the NHL, he worked with the Colorado Avalanche and the Ottawa Senators but now finds his home in Arizona. “I would also like to thank everyone

at Hockey Canada and the Ottawa 67’s for all their support the past few years,” Tourigny said. “It was an honor and a privilege to coach Team Canada, and I am very grateful for the opportunity to represent my country. The 67’s are a first-class organization, and I wish them all the best in the future.” The Coyotes searched for a coach after Rick Tocchet and the team mutually parted ways. In his time with the organization, Tocchet held a record of 125131-34 and led the team to the playoffs once. In that playoff run, they were defeated by the Colorado Avalanche, with the final game of their season resulting in a 7-1 loss. They found Tourigny, and Armstrong was excited to announce the news.

Glencroft erases stigma of modern living centers

BY CHRISTINA FUOCO-KARASINSKI

hen Glencroft Center for Modern Living underwent physical and theoretical facelifts three years ago, CEO John Wenzlau didn’t realize the impact it would have on the senior housing market. “We did a reinvention,” said Wenzlau, who has worked there for eight years. “We needed to change of perspective of people who needed the services we provide.” Even in the late 2010s, the stigma of places like Glencroft Center for Modern Living was negative. Wenzlau and his staff turned it around. The “modest buy-in community that was struggling” turned into a continuum of care retirement community (CCRC) with amenities needed for an aging community. The well-rounded Glencroft Center for Modern Living was founded in the early 1960s by Sarah Ruth, a local pastor’s wife. The Glendale facility offers independent and assisted living, memory and long-term care, along with home health services. Residents remain in the same 40-acre community as their health care needs evolve. Glencroft Center for Modern Aging is Arizona’s CCRC. “They’re reluctant to move into a senior place for a variety of reasons,” he said. “They think it’s a last stop in their journey. That is not what we are about. I put together a program with a fellow I hired out of the hospitality industry. We wanted to create a place to come where people can

thrive in the end years of their lives.” Glencroft provides standard services like meals, housekeeping and transportation; activities are what makes the center. “Everyone has a modified workout area,” he said. “But we needed to take it a step further and take a holistic approach.”

In 2019, Wenzlau and Vice President of Operations Steve Heller created the faithbased ZoeLife, which helps Glencroft residents maintain a healthy, active lifestyle and achieve and preserve a higher quality

er to develop tailored programs to meet individual goals and potential. “We offer fitness classes, worship services and even adult education classes at Glencroft University,” Wenzlau said. “We have five lectures this spring semester,” he said. “We tackle subjects like depression, which so many 80and 90-year-olds have. “ZoeLife and these classes have made a huge difference in perceiving their lifestyle, compared to maybe when they got here. We’re really excited about that. It’s been well received, and people are participating and noticing a difference.”

Fluent in German, French and English, Wenzlau has 40 years’ experience in the U.S. senior living and housing industry.

That’s giving back to the community, which we really, really like.” He is also an adjunct professor at the Keller Graduate School of Management in Phoenix and an adjunct instructor at Mesa Community College. Wenzlau worked as an executive director and regional director of Brookdale from June 2000 to April 2004. His experience also includes three years as executive director at Emeritus and 10 years as president at Agenor Partners LLC. He’s been with Friendship Retirement Corp., which owns Glencroft, since February 2014. “When I came to Glencroft, I had pent-up ideas from 30 years in the

for-profit segment,” he said. “It’s been a blessing to be here. “On the flip side, I’m doing this for my mom and dad. My dad died 20 years ago, and my mom is 95. She’s not interested in moving into a senior place. “The baby boomers are coming along. With the center, it gave me the first step at looking at the future. We want complete services for a generation that believes more so in exercise and healthy eating. We want to be attractive to baby boomers.”

ZoeLife has another tool in its arsenal

BY STEVE HELLER

hronic pain can be debilitating, taking a toll mentally and physically. It is a hurdle we must overcome as we age. For this reason, we have introduced the electro stimulation (acuscope/myopulse machine) to Glencroft’s ZoeLife program. Haloe Health brought its pain management technology called the electro-acuscope and electro myopulse to the campus. While the technology they use for pain has been around a long time, it has primarily been available to professional athletes. During the first phase with the Haloe Health team, Glencroft staff saw potential in combining this state-ofthe-art technology with the ZoeLife model of successful aging. Half of those enrolled in the program received

Health & Wellness

sessions on the device during the first beta group, and the other half did not. The data was convincing; the residents receiving the sessions with the device showed significantly more improvement than their counterparts not receiving sessions. With these positive results, the staff knew it had to get the equipment on campus. The pain management equipment is finally on the campus permanently. Glencroft has begun working with its residents on a very customized and calculated strategy to bring this technology to them regularly and at no cost.

Local podiatrist is revolutionizing foot surgery BY REISHA ZANG

oot surgery is changing. Dr. Daniel Schulman, a podiatrist with CIC Foot and Ankle, is leading the way, offering an alternative to metal implants. Feet endure a lot of wear and tear. Over time, injuries happen, osteoarthritis can set in, or bunions and hammertoes may develop. In many cases surgery is required to correct the bone deformities and relieve the pain. Traditionally this involves cutting bone to move it in a more normal position. For the bones to heal in the correct position, they need to be held in place. “Over the past few decades, metal screws and pins were the only option to secure the surgical site,” Schulman said. “This leads to a host of concerns, from a metal allergy and increased risk of infection to failed hardware and potential of a fracture.” Inspired by his mother’s allergy to metal, Schulman developed an implant made from cadaver bone. “I wanted to find a natural solution that reduced concerns and allowed for regeneration of the area, instead of implanting screws

or metal plates,” Schulman explained. The material comes from a certified tissue bank to ensure its quality and safety. Human cortical bone has successfully been used for decades in many orthopedic and dental surgical applications. Turning it into a bone pin gives surgeons another way to maximize its potential. He has performed hundreds of reconstructive foot surgeries without having to use a metal implant. “It’s the same bone graft we used for decades safely to fill holes in bones,” he explained. “We’re just using it in a different way. It’s designed to stay in place and act as a fixation device.” Once it’s in place the cortical bone, pins hold bones together just like the metal implants do. This alternative is better for patients. “It allows your body’s cells to grow across it, and it becomes incorporated as part of your own bone,” he said. There is less pain and swelling, improved healing and less risk for infection. “Our bodies know what to do with bone,” Schulman explained. In addition to becoming part of the

bone, it reduces the need for a potential follow-up surgery to remove the metal implant due to complications. “Patients are really happy when they are told there’s no need for a second surgery to remove potential-

ly painful, broken or infected hardware,” he said. “I haven’t had a patient request metal once they become aware of this option.” For more information call 602-9540777 or visit azfeet.com.

Allergies are a product of your body’s immune system: Allergic reactions occur when your immune system, which normally protects you from viruses, bacteria, and other harmful substances, overreacts to something in your environment. When you come into contact with something you’re allergic to, called an allergen, your body tries to destroy it. Allergies are very common, but they can be vastly different. They vary in severity from minor nuisances to deadly threats that demand cautionary preparations and immediate medical attention.

How do I know if I have allergies? Allergies can come with many symptoms. Some of the most common allergens are pollen from flowers, animal dander, shellfish, and nuts. Symptoms that you might experience include: • Sneezing • Itching • Watery eyes • Rash • Vomiting • Shortness of breath • Swelling in your face • Dizziness

You can only be sure that your reaction is from an allergy if you get tested for it. After finding the cause of your allergic reaction, Dr. Chahal forms a plan of action to help you manage it.

The Arizona Coyotes hired Andre Tourigny to a three-year contract as their head coach. (Photo courtesy of the Arizona Coyotes)

“I feel very fortunate in this process to land a coach such as (Tourigny),” Armstrong said. “Probably the best thing about him is his ability to teach and bring young talent to the forefront. We’re excited about him leading this franchise into the new era.” Moving forward, Tourigny has work to do. After the Coyotes violated the

NHL’s combine testing policy, they lost their first-round pick this year and traded their second-highest pick to the Ottawa Senators for Derek Stepan. So, with two of their top picks down, Tourigny’s talent of bringing new players up will be tested right away. But with a new coach comes a new mentality that the players will have, and the Coyotes could be up and running very soon.

Home and landscape show blooming with ideas BY TYLER WEGLEITNER West Valley View Staff Writer

he Maricopa County Home and Landscape Show is coming to State Farm Stadium in Glendale from July 16 to July 18. The Home and Landscape Show provides a place for people to come shop local businesses and attend seminars and workshops. Katie Jones, show director for Maricopa County Home Shows, said the home shows provide “an opportunity for consumers to come to one central location and shop a bunch of exhibitor booths.” Jones said the show boasts a variety of vendors and companies for visitors to peruse.

“There’s everything from home decor, home goods, home design, there’s remodeling companies, there’s landscapers, seminars, gardening,” she said. “It’s so much revolving exclusively and specifically around home improvement and home and garden.” The upcoming show at State Farm Stadium will host several special events, including demonstrations, shows and seminars. Among these are a beginner-level glass etching class, beeswax candle-making and dog training demonstrations. Jones said there will be two stages at the show. One will be dedicated to remodeling and home improvement. Guests can meet with experts there and learn more

about home improvement projects. The other stage hosts gardening and landscaping that will be taught by the UA’s Master Gardener’s Program. Successful features will return this year. “We also have our Handmade Headquarters back by popular demand. That is our crafting workshop station where you can come in … build your own craft and leave with that craft,” she said. These crafts range from painted signs to garden terrariums. Jones said the Home and Landscape Show will have free wine tastings and “a free walk-up landscaping consultation” valued at $350. Anyone interested in the landscaping consultation should bring photos and measurements of their yard. Jones said out of approximately 800 booth spaces at the show, around 700 feature local contractors and companies that will discuss projects and services in a “very safe and controlled, screened environment.” “They get to talk with reputable, licensed, screened contractors,” Jones said. “We ensure that they’re licensed properly through the Arizona Registrar of Contractors. That way when you come to the show, you can shop with confidence.” Local artisans will sell their crafts and wares as well. Many of them rely on the show for business. “They rely on the leads that are generated from the home shows to keep their employees on payroll,” she said. “Then the companies are able to grow and retain those employees.” By hosting five home shows through-

out the year at locations in Phoenix, Glendale and Scottsdale, it also provides these companies with new opportunities. “It gives the companies opportunities to exhibit and meet people from areas of the Valley that don’t necessarily travel over to them, which expands their growth as well,” Jones said. She said because companies from all over the Valley travel to these shows, they also give the public an easier way of finding companies to do business with. “Now they’re being exposed to these companies across the Valley who are not readily available, or you don’t have to pull them up online and do research on your own,” Jones said. “You can come and spend an hour or two at the Home Show and you get it all done in such a short amount of time.”

Littleton superintendent wins Kellis award BY CHRISTINA FUOCO-KARASINSKI West Valley View Executive Editor

ittleton Elementary School District No. 65 Superintendent Dr. Roger Freeman was presented with the prestigious 2021 Dr. Raymond Sterling Kellis Leadership Award during the Arizona School Administrators summer conference held at the El Conquistador Tucson Resort. The ASA established this award to recognize the outstanding lifelong contributions Kellis made to leadership in education in Arizona. This singular award is presented to a person who most exemplifies the leadership style of the late Kellis. Freeman was recognized for excelling in the following categories: • Demonstrates a vision of a better life for children through education. • Exhibits ethical conduct of the highest order. • Possesses strong moral convictions. • Participates actively as a civic leader. • Mentors aspiring new and veteran administrators. • Values and sees the best in others. “I was really surprised when I heard my name called as the recipient of this award,” Freeman said. “It is an honor and a privilege to be

recognized as someone representative of the leadership likened to the stature of Dr. Kellis. “As great as it is receiving this award, it represents all the hard work put in by our governing board and all the administrators, teachers and support staff of the Littleton District. “I had a number of opportunities to talk to Ray back when I was a principal, and for those who knew him, you know that means I mostly listened.” Freeman was nominated by LESD Director of Curriculum and Assessment Robyann Musil. “Dr. Freeman is an ardent and seemingly tireless advocate for public education in the West Valley and across Arizona,” Musil said. “He is a naturally introverted educator who becomes animated by advocating for families and their students and was instrumental in establishing LESD’s values of trust, respect, integrity, collaboration and dedication.” Littleton Superintendent Dr. Roger Freeman, center, is presented with the 2021 Dr. Raymond Sterling Kellis Leadership Award during the Arizona School Administrators summer conference held at the El Conquistador Tucson Resort.

Danny D. Montgomery

Danny D. Montgomery, passed away at his home in Mesa, AZ on June 18, 2021 after a more than 5 year courageous battle with ALS. He was 72. His family was by his side. Leaving us much too soon, he will be missed greatly. Danny was born in Phoenix, AZ, the son of Clarence (CE) and Juanita Montgomery, living his childhood in the Buckeye, AZ area. He was very athletic in school, graduating from Buckeye Union High School, Class of 1966, with All Conference First Team honors in football. After high school, he became a transmission rebuilder until he received his draft notice, which motivated him to join the United States Marine Corps instead of being drafted into the Army. He spent two years in the Marines, one year of that time in Vietnam as a Squad Leader. He was honorably discharged at the end of those two years having earned the rank of Corporal (E4). After being discharged from the Marine Corps, Danny worked at a labor job until he was accepted into the Bricklayers Journeymen Program where he earned Journeyman status after 3 years of college courses and on the job training. Danny was a very hard worker and took pride in his work which led him to owning his own masonry company for about five years. He was always very creative and artistic; he designed and built many beautiful creations, plus, built his own home during this time. Danny retired from bricklaying and worked for the State of Arizona for more than 20 years, where he officially retired in 2006. After retirement, he bought a small ranch in Texas fulfilling his dream of being a rancher with the cattle and other animals he loved. Danny's hobbies included his ranch, he excelled and very much enjoyed country and western dancing, was a very big fan of spectator sports, held season tickets for the Arizona Cardinals when they first came to Arizona, and was a dedicated player in Fantasy Football. Danny is survived by his son, Stephen Montgomery (Michele), his grandson Tobias, of Queen Creek, AZ, a brother Clarence (Gene) Montgomery of Tyler, TX, a sister Vangie Carmean (Doug), of Mesa, AZ, many nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his parents, and a sister-in-law Christine Montgomery. A celebration of life and burial was held on July 3, 2021 at West Resthaven Funeral Home, 6450 W. Northern Avenue, Glendale, AZ.
