A mother grieves a ‘lost soul’ BY TOM SCANLON

If tears could summon back a loved one, Jared Garcia would float home, hug his mom and say he’s sorry, grab his phone and see all the text messages and social media hits saying “im worried call me,” “where r u” and “you ok bro?” But this isn’t a fantasy movie, the tears of Stephanie Garcia and all of Jared’s loved ones only wash bitterly down their exhausted faces. The messages will go forever unanswered, save for the chilling finality of his gravestone: Loved By All Who Knew Him Jared A.

The route, significantly, covers the neighborhood where Jared used to buy drugs—probably including the batch that took the life from his body. Jared was raised in Tolleson and Avondale, graduating from Westview High two years ago, before moving to his mother’s Glendale apartment. Except for occasional stints in Peoria, where he went to rehab and lived with a roommate briefly, his world swirled around Avondale and Glendale.

Westview grad thrives at Amazon BY BRIAN CANO SR.

West Valley View Contributing Writer

As Amazon rapidly expands its operations in the West Valley, a local success story thanks the global giant not just for his career but for helping him overcome health challenges and providing educational opportunities.

Edgar Garcia, 33, is a Westview High graduate and cancer survivor (he is not related to Jared Garcia). He was hired by Amazon at 21 to an entry-level position and is now an area manager. “Things happen out of nowhere, and this happened to me when I was 21,” Garcia said.

“I was extremely fortunate to just be at Amazon at the right time and take advantage of those benefits, because it’s the reason why I’m alive today and healthy.” Garcia felt his cancer diagnosis was sure

While she may never stop blaming herself for her son’s death, Stephanie shares the blame with two things: COVID-19 and fentanyl. The American Medical Association backs her up on both. “In addition to the ongoing challenges presented by the COVID-19 global pandemic, the nation’s opioid epidemic has grown into a much more complicated and deadly drug overdose epidemic. The AMA is greatly concerned by an increasing number of reports from national, state and local media suggesting increases in opioidand other drug-related mortality—particularly from illicitly manufactured fentanyl and fentanyl analogs,” said a recent AMA press release.

I’m 1000% positive” Stephanie said. “He would have told me.” Asked if she feels the pandemic contributed to her son’s death, Stephanie does not hesitate. “Absolutely,” she said. “It took away the ability for him to congregate and be with people—the isolation factor with drug abuse is huge. That’s where the disease wants you to be.” Stephanie added that when her son was arrested, “he had to sit in a cell for weeks before he could see a judge.” Jared had charges this year in Avondale Municipal Court and Glendale Municipal Court for defacing public property, disorderly conduct and fighting.

Garcia was unsure of how he would pay for the expensive cancer medications. He said Amazon provided the hope he sought, in the form of crucial medical benefits. “Without Amazon having the medical benefits, it would have been very difficult for me and my family to be able to pay,” Garcia said. “Very grateful from that perspective. And one thing that I love about Amazon as I continue to work there: It’s a big team environment.” Garcia said as an Amazon employee, has had the opportunity to rapidly advance by participating in as many roles as he could, including processing, organizing stocks and maintaining inventory. During this time, he took advantage of his opportunities and worked on many different teams in several countries, Garcia said. “I’m super grateful about the doors that have been opened up for me at Amazon,” said Garcia. “I’ve had the opportunity to kind of put my fingerprint of my leadership style and capabilities and travel to places like Egypt, Ireland, Costa Rica and Barcelona.” Garcia, a Tolleson resident and self-proclaimed “West Valley boy,” said he is excited to return to his roots for the launching of Amazon’s newest crossdock facility on Cotton Lane and Indian School Road in Goodyear. Meanwhile, Amazon is looking to hire 1,000 new employees for a similar facility in Phoenix. Garcia said Amazon pays up to 95% of tuition and fees toward a certificate or diploma in qualified fields of study. “Amazon looks for opportunities to enhance people’s ability to grow, even if it’s growing in a field outside of Amazon,” he said. According to the company, wages are only part of what Amazon offers: “On top of an industry-leading $15 minimum wage, full-time employees receive comprehensive benefits on day one, including health, dental, and vision insurance, 401K with 50% company match and a network to succeed,” said an Amazon press release. The company’s motto is “great jobs and better futures.” An entry-level job at Amazon can be a springboard to an Amazon career or other opportunities. This year, Amazon

promoted more than 35,000 employees in its operations network. According to the company, in 2019, Amazon committed nearly $60 million for tuition of 30,000 employees in high-demand fields, including computer support specialist, web developer, commercial truck driver—and even nurse. Garcia said health insurance makes Amazon stand out. “Twelve years ago, you had to have at least 90 days before you received the

benefits plan, but now it’s starting on day one,” Garcia said. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, over 38 million people under age 65 are medically uninsured. Additionally, over 20% of adults between 18 to 64 rely solely on a public health care system. Amazon also announced a bonus of $300 for qualified employees.

Cabana at Bullard ‘farm-to-couch’ apartments move ahead BY TOM SCANLON

West Valley View Managing Editor

Goodyear’s development is hardly entirely “farm-to-warehouse”—a new project can be described as “farm-tocouch.” On Aug. 24, Goodyear City Council approved a rezoning request for a proposed 336-unit multi-family residential development on the northwest corner of North Bullard Avenue and West Van Buren Street. On Nov. 24, Greenlight Communities purchased the property for $2.8 million, according to commercial real estate tracker vizzda.com. The apartments will be called Cabana at Bullard. Greenlight’s website says it has “Beautiful communities for the budget-conscious … We provide high-quality, affordable options that create opportunities for real connection because we believe renters should never have to choose between the lifestyle they want and a community they love.”

After approval by city council, a “farm-to-couch” project moved ahead, with Greenlight Communities purchasing land for its proposed Cabana at Bullard apartments. (Images courtesy Greenlight)

Greenlight’s website said it is building Cabana Encanto at 2323 N. 150th Drive, near Litchfield Park and Cabana 99th in Glendale. Three other Cabana apartment buildings are leasing in Phoenix and Tempe. The new Goodyear location on Bullard and Van Buren would be conve-

Arizona could get COVID-19 vaccine this month

WEST VALLEY VIEW NEWS | DECEMBER 9, 2020

BY HOWARD FISCHER Capitol Media Services

Arizona is expected to receive “hundreds of thousands” of doses of vaccine for COVID-19 by the end of the month, state health chief Cara Christ said Dec. 2, with priority for healthcare workers, vulnerable populations, residents of long-term care facilities, and teachers. The announcement came even as she disclosed that one person out of every seven who got tested for the virus the previous week showed they were infected. And her agency reported a new one-day record for cases. But Gov. Doug Ducey, standing at her side, refused to put any new mitigation measures or restrictions in place to get the state past the point where a majority of Arizonans can actually be inoculated. He specifically rejected a proposal by the chief medical officers of several Arizona hospitals to put in place a curfew, close restaurants to indoor dining and cancel group athletic activities. In-

stead, Ducey said he is relying on the idea that Arizona will have sufficient hospital beds to treat those who get ill in the interim. That assumes that hospitals can find the qualified medical personnel to staff these beds. Earlier the same day, Marjorie Bessel, chief clinical officer for Banner Health, said the problem now is that Arizona is no longer the only state with a surge. That makes it difficult to recruit help from elsewhere. And while Banner is in the process of filling 1,500 positions, she said efforts are still underway to hire 900 more. At another press conference Dec. 4, Christ said 380,000 doses of COVID-19 vaccine are expected by Dec. 15, to be provided first to health care workers and first responders. Christ noted the state submitted its plans for vaccine distribution to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention for approval. Under that plan, hundreds of approved providers could begin vaccinat-

With approval for the first COVID-19 vaccine expected this month, Arizona health officials said they expect to get the first doses by Dec. 15 and begin vaccinating priority groups, like heath care workers, soon after that. The general public could start getting vaccinated next spring. (Photo by NIAID/Creative Commons)

ing Arizonans, with health care workers and long-term care residents first. Christ said priority groups should be vaccinated by the end of February and that anyone in the state who wants the two-dose vaccination should have received it by late summer or early fall.

Christ called the vaccine a “light at the end of the tunnel” during a dark time for the state: Confirmed COVID-19 cases and deaths are surging in Arizona, with the health department reporting more than 11,000 new cases Dec. 3-4 alone. Arizona will be told each week how many doses to expect, and it will allot those by county, based on the percentage of county residents in a priority group. The counties will then tell the state how many doses to send, and where, and the state will relay that information to the CDC distributor. “The CDC distributor will ship the vaccine directly to the providers that are approved to receive an allocation,” Christ said. “So, the state and local health departments will not receive that vaccine or serve as a middleman in the distribution chain.” Ducey agreed to provide an additional $60 million to Arizona hospitals to help them find the staff there. That is on top of a $25 million infusion less than a month ago. But Bessel said the picture in Arizona is “grim,’’ predicting that Banner hospitals will hit 125% of bed capacity this month and even exceed that, at least briefly, in January. The most recent data from the Arizona Department of Health Services already has ICU bed use at 90% of capacity. Hitting 125% is not necessarily a problem, as hospitals are required to have

made plans for that surge, including converting other non-ICU beds and other facilities for intensive-care use. But the Institute for Health Metrics Evaluation predicts that the demand for ICU beds will hit 300% of capacity by the middle of January unless there are steps taken to curb the spread of the virus. It was for that reason that Bessel and medical officers from Mayo Clinic and Dignity Health specifically asked Christ Dr. Cara Christ gives an update on COVID-19 with to impose the additional restric- Gov.

Recreational marijuana still faces logistical challenges BY ADIANNA BERMUDEZ AND TAYLOR TASLER-OATLEY Cronkite News

Recreational use of marijuana will soon be legal in Arizona, thanks to the easy passage of Proposition 207, but economic and logistical hurdles remain before Arizonans will feel the effects. The measure­—approved by more than 60% of voters in unofficial results from Nov. 3—decriminalizes recreational marijuana use and possession for those 21 or older; allows minor, nonviolent marijuana offenders to petition to have their criminal records expunged; and imposes an excise tax to support underfunded programs across the state. Once the Arizona Secretary of State’s Office certifies the proposition, which is expected to happen this month, the use and possession of up to 1 ounce of marijuana will be legal except in public spaces. Despite the law’s passage, however, marijuana possession, distribution and use remain federal crimes.

Dispensaries and growers, which have become a familiar presence in Arizona since voters narrowly approved marijuana for medical use in 2010, will have to wait for state approval to sell marijuana for recreational uses. Application for state licenses is expected to open in January, and organizers of Proposition 207 are predicting an April 5 launch for recreational sales. A key element of Proposition 207 is the opportunity to expunge a criminal record, which can impede employment, nullify the right to vote and harm reputations. Proposition 207 is the first voter measure in Arizona that offers expungement, according to Jared Keenan, a senior staff attorney at American Civil Liberties Union of Arizona. But the process may differ in each of Arizona’s 15 counties, depending on the population and whether the county attorney supported the measure. Currently, Keenan said, all marijuana convictions are felonies, which means convicts could lose their right

to vote, their access to public housing and food assistance, and their eligibility for federal student loans. A criminal record also makes it harder to get a job. Representatives of dispensaries and marijuana growers and processors are optimistic about the future of their businesses under the new law. Right now, though, it’s a waiting game. Dispensaries can apply for a recreational adult Sales of recreational marijuana are expected to begin in use license from Jan. 19 early April, industry experts say.

OUR READERS’ VIEWPOINTS

JUDGE’S OPINION — King Features

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

A response Editor: I would like to comment on some of Mr. David Wilson’s assertions, including his glowing praises about the character of presumptive President-elect Joe Biden, in his letter published in your issue of Nov. 26. First, in pointing out Mr. Biden’s “sincere belief in God who goes to church every Sunday,” Mr. Wilson seems to highlight Mr. Biden as a man of strong faith who is close to his religion and faith and practices what faith teaches. I don’t know if Mr. Wilson is aware that in answer to a reporter’s question about his Catholic faith, particularly his support of abortion contrary to the teachings of the Church, which considers abortion “intrinsically evil” and a nonnegotiable issue, he replied that he personally opposed abortion but that his personal beliefs should not be imposed on others and therefore should not interfere nor guide his actions in the performance of his duties as a public official. In other words, he believes that what is important in his private life is not important in his public life. Or to put it bluntly, he seems to put more importance on his conduct before man than before his God. May I remind Mr. Wilson that Mr. Biden was refused Holy Communion by a South Carolina priest precisely because of his support of abortion. Every Christian is confronted with the admonition, “For what will it profit a man to gain the whole world but lose his soul in the process.” Mr. Biden also emphatically stated that “I am the Democratic Party,” which means that he personifies all the beliefs, ideas and culture his party embraces and stands for, including a number that go against his Church’s teachings. Second, Mr. Wilson must know both Mr. Biden’s private and public life and conduct well enough to be able to describe him as “a decent and compassion-

ate man with a moral compass and high ethical standards.” As I point out above, Mr. Biden seems to choose to be one person in private and another in public. I’m also hoping that the investigations into his and his son’s questionable dealings with the Ukraine and China don’t prove Mr. Wilson wrong. Of course, he may not be aware of these investigations since the leftist mainstream and social media refuse to report any of these. Third, Mr. Wilson’s statement, “I understand that reversing the tax cuts for millionaires and billionaires may seem unfair and that taxes will be raised on the top 1% and not the rest of us may cause some to pay their fair share,” is a misrepresentation of Mr. Biden’s tax plan. His purported plan is to increase taxes on individuals making more than $400,000. Clearly that’s far from raising taxes only on individuals in the top 1% of the income ladder, isn’t it? Fourth, from Mr. Wilson’s statement, “I understand that refusing to recognize the contribution of the millions of immigrants who have formed our great country is contrary to your world view,” he seems to be trying to mislead people into believing that the Republican Party and every Republican is entirely against immigration, legal and illegal. Unlike the platform of the Democratic Party, Republicans are only against illegal immigration because they believe that the law should be observed and not flouted and that every official of the government has sworn to uphold the law. Also, condoning and supporting illegal immigration (as in creating sanctuary cities) is also an injustice done to people from other nations who choose to patiently obey and follow the legal immigration process regardless of the inconvenience and long wait. We plainly understand the ulterior motive of opening our borders to uncontrolled illegal immigration. A. Fargas Goodyear

Hunting for facts Editor: Where are the facts? In response to Scott Stewart’s letter, I have one question: Where are your facts? COVID-19 is raging with over 100,000 people now in ICUs. Hospitals and staff are at the breaking point. You may not have contracted COVID at the rallies you attended, but chances are many did. Here in Arizona the infection rate is 18% and rising. That means one out of five tests is positive. There is nothing silly about this pandemic. If we have to shut down the nation to kill the virus before it kills us, then that is a decision we must make. How can you continue to bang the drum of massive voter fraud when Trump’s own handpicked Attorney General William Barr has repeatedly stated there is no evidence. Every state and local official has said this election was one of the fairest in history. The courts will not decide this election, Scott; the people will and did. Over 6 million chose to elect Joe Biden as the 46th president rather than Donald Trump. Biden still has 306 Electoral College

votes to Trump’s 232. I would call that overwhelming. The courts have also rejected claims of voter fraud, stating there is no evidence. As the scaffolding is being erected for the inauguration at the Capitol, I don’t see any Trump officials being involved. Trump may not concede, but his administration has. The peaceful transition of power has begun. There is one point we do agree on: term limits. McConnell should not have so much power as to obstruct bipartisan legislation for 12 years just because he doesn’t like it. No person should have that much power. And hopefully in January two new Georgia Senators will end his reign. And let’s put to rest once and for all the Hunter Biden story. The Republican Intelligence Committee has exhaustively investigated the accusations and found no evidence to support Trump’s theory. No evidence, Scott. Where’s yours? I believe you to be a reasonable man, and I hope my fair and balanced response will be accepted in that spirit. David Wilson Goodyear


OPINION

Invest in gift of yourself Faith, Ledyard & Faith, PLC AT TO R N E Y S AT L AW and be a virtual mentor WE ARE SERVING ARIZONA DURING COVID-19 WEST VALLEY VIEW NEWS | DECEMBER 9, 2020

BY DEVIN DEL PALACIO Guest Writer

As we head into possibly the most isolating holiday season yet, there are more children who are in desperate need of mentorship. We are experiencing a once-in-alifetime pandemic. Schools have been out for months. Families are having to make tough decisions at the dinner table, and we are also living through civil unrest due to the racial inequities that plague our society. Although it seems we have a lot of new challenges to address, one thing that has not changed is the need for good mentors. Now more than ever, our youth need a mentor in their corner to help them navigate through life’s most pressing challenges. Sometimes the gift of your time is more valuable than anything you can buy a child. I’m sure you’re asking yourself, how can one possibly mentor at a time when COVID-19 is rampant in our community? The answer is simple. With the growing use of technology such as FaceTime and Zoom, it is now easier to connect more than ever. You can communicate with your mentee online and in person if you choose to do so. Due to the innovative flexible ways to become a mentor, how could I not sign up myself? I applied to become a mentor through a formal program a few months ago and was recently matched to my mentee in May. My mentee is 10 years old and very active. At first, I was worried that he might not be comfortable meeting up virtually, but boy was I wrong! So far we’ve had three virtual outings. All have been very engaging and fun. In our first virtual meeting, we decided to water paint together. I must admit my mentee’s painting skills put mine to shame. He’s a very talented young man. While we were painting, we also had a conversation on current events. Specifically around the current race issues

and policing in our community. My mentee was confused and had questions as to why these things were happening. It was a great first virtual meeting. During our second virtual meeting, we decided to play Xbox online games with each other. We simply pointed our devices at the TV screens and played Minecraft together. Playing video games with my mentee was fun, even though I still don’t understand how Minecraft works. For our third and most recent virtual outing, my mentee decided he wanted to make macaroni and cheese together from scratch. With the help of his mom, he was able to get the ingredients needed to make it happen. The next thing you know, we are both making homemade mac and cheese virtually. Although we can’t see each other in person, we have still developed a solid foundation for what I hope is a long-lasting relationship. I’m sharing my experience with you to show that mentoring works. This is a small part of your life where you can make a big difference. According to The Mentor Partnership, youth who meet regularly with their mentors are 52% less likely to skip a day or school and 46% less likely to start using illegal drugs. Mentorship also fosters the importance of education. Seventy-six percent of at-risk youth who had a mentor aspire to enroll in and graduate from college and are more likely to be enrolled in college. This holiday season, invest in the gift of mentorship. You don’t have to be perfect to be a child’s mentor; you just have to be present. So if you’re eager to make a difference in someone’s life, I highly recommend you reach out to your local mentoring organizations. Your mentee awaits you! Devin Del Palacio is director of community partnerships, Big Brothers Big Sisters of Central Arizona.

Drive-in Hanukkah event in Goodyear brings light to West Valley BY WEST VALLEY VIEW STAFF

Chabad of Goodyear is partnering with Osborne Jewelers and Trader Joe’s to sponsor a “drive-in” Hanukkah event for the community. The event at 4:15 p.m. Sunday, Dec. 13, will be in the parking lot of Osborne Jewelers, 15350 W. McDowell Road, Goodyear. The free event features the kindling of a 9-foot menorah; street magic from Cody Williams; music; and gift boxes for each car, including hot latkes sponsored by Trader Joe’s. Participants are encouraged to stay in their cars. Chabad of Goodyear will also distribute menorahs, candles and Hanukkah-at-home kits to those celebrating at home. “The menorah serves as a symbol of light and hope for us today amidst the darkness of the pandemic as it did for generations before us,” said Rabbi Berel Zaklikofsky. “The

flames of the menorah shine out into the night, reminding us that even when confronted with much darkness, a tiny light can dispel it all. Another act of goodness and kindness, another act of light, can make all the difference.” This year the holiday has added significance, as so many will be isolated at home on Hanukkah. Hanukkah, the Festival of Lights, begins this year on the evening of Thursday, Dec. 10, and concludes the evening of Friday, Dec. 18. For more information, visit jewishgoodyear.com/hanukkah or chabad. org/hanukkah.

Anonymous donor matching $100,000 in Red Kettle donations BY WEST VALLEY VIEW STAFF

An anonymous donor has pledged to match the first $100,000 in donations at The Salvation Army’s signature Red Kettles at storefronts across the Valley. “This enormously generous gift could not come at a better time,” said Maj. David Yardley, The Salvation Army Metro Phoenix program coordinator. “Due to the pandemic, there are fewer Red Kettles out this holiday season, so The Salvation Army could see a decrease in the funds raised by those kettles during a time of increased need in the Valley, so this donation will help ‘Rescue Christmas’ for our most vulnerable neighbors.” Donations to the Red Kettles combine for 19% of gifts to The Salvation Army in the Valley for the entire year, helping assist more than 200,000 people annually. The Salvation Army’s goal for this year’s Red Kettle campaign in the Valley is to raise $1.5 million. Donors can use the Kettle Pay option on a Red Kettle sign to make a safe, secure and

contactless gift with Apple Pay, Google Pay or by credit card. Donations can be also be made: • Online at SalvationArmyRedKettle.org. • By texting RedKettles (no spaces) to 51555. • By asking Alexa to “Make a donation to The Salvation Army.” The Salvation Army’s Red Kettle was introduced in San Francisco in 1891 to provide a As in years past, though now with contactless options, ringers will be soliciting Salvation Army donations.

The idea of Go Figure is to arrive at the figures given at the bottom and right-hand columns of the diagram by following the arithmetic signs in the order they are given (that is, from left to right and top to bottom). Use only the numbers below the diagram to complete its blank squares and use each of the nine numbers only once.

Each numbered row contains two clues and two answers. The two answers differ from each other by only one letter, which has already been inserted. For example, if you exchange the A from MASTER for an I, you get MISTER. Do not change the order of the letters.

Dealership donates school supplies to AESD BY WEST VALLEY VIEW STAFF

The week after Thanksgiving, teachers and children at Avondale Elementary School District remained thankful, as Larry H. Miller Dealerships in Avondale delivered more than 4,000 packs of school supplies, 1,087 dry erase boards and a $1,000 cash donation to the district. The supplies included items like glue

sticks, colored pens, pencils, highlighters and paper. The “Giving Tuesday” delivery was the culmination of a three-week-long “Driven to Assist” school supply drive, which invited employees and the public to help stuff a vehicle at each of its three Avondale dealerships with “COVID-19 friendly” individual school supplies. “When we learned of the need for

individual school supplies for students attending schools within the Avondale Elementary School District, we jumped at the opportunity to help,” said Ana Games, Avondale controller, Larry H. Miller Dealerships. “Finding a need in the community and gathering together to fulfill the need is embedded in our company culture, but it’s also a part of who we are individually; our employ-

ees love contributing to the community by giving back.” The district, which educates nearly 6,000 K-8 children, returned to in-person learning at 50% capacity in October. Teachers have been faced with the challenge of not enough school supplies. Children are no longer able to share their supplies, due to safety concerns around the spread of COVID-19.

Elio Omar Scotti Elio Omar Scotti was born on April 21, 1939 in Cordoba, Argentina to Jose Pedro Scotti and Maria Rosa Amoros, and was the first of their five children. He died at the age of 81 in Goodyear, AZ on November 23, 2020. He was a salesman, an entrepreneur, a provider to his entire family, a loyal husband of near 60 years and a father of two children. He is survived by his wife, Cristina, and his children Patti and Paul, and his five grandchildren, Celeste, Kevin, Kyle, Brooke, and Brandon. At the age of 14 he began attending a Military High School in Cordoba where he enjoyed gymnastics and other physical training while being molded with military training, discipline, loyalty, and honor -virtues which guided him throughout his life. He began his sales career while still in High School assisting his father in managing a photo/art business - providing families with colorized artistic reproductions of their black-and-white family portraits. At the age of 18 he went north to his uncle in Uruguay to learn the art of planography -transferring art on a flat surface to banners, flags and shirts; and he brought his newfound skill back to Argentina to begin his own business. At the age of 21, Elio married Maria Cristina Carreras on March 23, 1961. At the age of 30, Elio was the top salesman for the Day of the Children (Dia de los Ninos) fundraising campaign in Cordoba, which led to his management of that fundraising campaign. At the age of 36, with his wife and two young children, and after being on a waiting list for 10 years, he brought his family to the United States, to Floral Park, Long Island, New York. Like so many others, he came to this country without a job, but with a sponsor, a classmate from the military academy. This country offered him opportunities, which he took with gusto. He began working for a commercial photography lab in NYC for bosses who were levelheaded and

good-hearted. After three years of putting in massive amounts of time and energy, he owned the company and shortly thereafter he bought his first home, in Rockville Centre, Long Island, which he paid off in five years. Elio sponsored both his younger brothers, Miguel and Hector, to come to the United States, and housed them and their families in his home until they could be selfsufficient -allowing both brothers and their families the opportunity he himself had when he brought his own family to this country for a better future. Elio was a fierce believer in economic freedom, and was a member of the Irvington-on-the-Hudson based organization, Freedom for Economic Education (FEE), and was a follower of the writings and economic principles of the Austrian economist, Ludwig Von Mises, devouring all of Mises’ books on economic free markets, with his favorites being Human Action and Socialism. Elio’s license plate reads, “Tu ne cede malis”, which is the first portion of the longer phrase by Virgil, “Tu ne cede malis sed contra audentior ito” which is Latin for “Yield not to misfortunes, but advance all the more boldly against them”. This phrase was chosen by Mises as his Motto, and Elio, likewise, chose it as his own. Elio strived hard to provide for his family, even when they became adults, and he is remembered by his family for being a very generous man, whose help in financial hard times was provided without hesitation. Elio’s hobby was fencing. He entered fencing competitions while a young man in Argentina, and picked it up again in the United States as an over-50s fencer, getting coaching lessons in NYC from some excellent Russian fencers, preparing him to be on a Seniors team that competed in England in 1994. Elio will be missed, and never forgotten. May he be in God’s goodness, and rest in peace. Services were held on December 8th of 2020.

Sunhe Lee Ashurst

John M Littleton

Sunhe was born in Korean farming village when it was still under Japanese occupation. As a girl she loved school but when the Korean war broke out in 1950, her school education ended. After the war she was able to set up a small cosmetic business in Seoul and supported her parents and siblings. She came to the USA in 1967 by herself, leaving her young daughter, Jana, with her mother. Although she didn't speak any English she crossed the country by bus to find an old friend she knew lived in Phoenix. There she worked in a restaurant and then worked as a maid in Scottsdale. Always ready to dive in, she set out for a walk one day and ended up on top of Camelback Mountain. Sunhe married George Sizemore and sponsored her daughter to come to the US. She divorced George in 1977 and married Jim Ashurst in 1978. She loved to get outdoors and hike, fish, or campout. They bought a canoe and went on many fishing trips with it. Later they moved to Henderson Nevada when Jim went to work at Hoover Dam. They moved back to Goodyear in 2004. Sunhe was a wonderful cook, especially when she would make her Korean food. There were Korean women from her time who'd married Americans and came to the USA. They loved to get together, make mounds of the most delicious food, sing and dance using spoons on the tables as drums. She leaves behind husband Jim, Daughter Jana, and grandson David as well as her sister Young Jin in Scottsdale. She also leaves two living sisters in Korea.

He was a loyal and caring relative and friend to many. John was born in Chicago, IL to the late Helen (Callaghan) and Francis Littleton. He was a proud graduate of Leo Catholic High School, where he was inducted into the Alumni Association Hall of Fame in 2006. After high school, he joined the U.S. Marine Corps and was honorably discharged in 1956, then attended Fox Business College for two years before embarking on a successful career in business. John retired as an executive/owner from Michigan Bulb Company. He was an avid golfer, reader, traveler, and life-long fan of the Chicago Bears. What he enjoyed most of all was spending time with his family. John was a gentleman, kind and generous, who made a positive impact on all who knew him.

INC.; GLOBAL WATER - PICACHO COVE UTILITIES COMPANY, INC.; GLOBAL WATER PICACHO COVE WATER COMPANY, INC.; GLOBAL WATER - GREATER TONOPAH WATER COMPANY, INC.; AND GLOBAL WATER - SANTA CRUZ WATER COMPANY, INC. FOR PERMANENT RATE INCREASES FOR WATER AND WASTEWATER UTILITY SERVICE AND CERTAIN OTHER APPROVALS. (DOCKET NO. SW-20445A-20-0214 et al.) Summary On August 28, 2020, Global Water - Palo Verde Utilities Company, Inc. (“Palo Verde”) filed an application with the Arizona Corporation Commission (“Commission”) for an increase in rates and charges in Docket No. SW-20445A-20-0214. On the same date, rate applications were filed by Global Water - Red Rock Utilities Company, Inc. (“Red Rock”) in Docket No. WS-04245A-20-0215, Global Water - Northern Scottsdale Water Company, Inc. (“Northern Scottsdale”) in Docket No. W-03720A-20-0216, Global Water - Turner Ranches Irrigation, Inc. (“Turner Ranches”) in Docket No. W-01677A-20-0217, Global Water - Balterra Utilities Company, Inc. (“Balterra”) in Docket No. SW-20403A-20-0218, Global Water - Eagletail Water Company, Inc. (“Eagletail”) in Docket No. W-03936A-20-0219, Global Water - Hassayampa Utilities Company, Inc. (“Hassayampa”) in Docket No. SW-20422A-20-0220, Global Water - Picacho Cove Utilities Company, Inc. (“Picacho Utilities”) in Docket No. SW-20494A-20-0221, Global Water - Greater Tonopah Water Company, Inc. (“Greater Tonopah”) in Docket No. W-02450A-20-0222, Global Water - Santa Cruz Water Company, Inc. (“Santa Cruz”) in Docket No. W-20446A-20-0223, and Global Water - Picacho Cove Water Company, Inc. (“Picacho Water”) in Docket No. W-20495A-20-0 224 (collectively, “Global Water Utilities”). The rate applications have been consolidated for purposes of hearing and consideration by the Commission. In conjunction with the requested rate increases, Global Water Utilities proposes to consolidate some

of its systems (as shown below); to implement standalone rate increases if consolidation of the systems is not granted; to phase-in consolidated rates over a three-year period, beginning no earlier than January 1, 2022; and to implement a rate case expense surcharge, the amount of which will vary based on meter size and between systems, to be collected in 2023 and 2024 only. Consolidations & Proposed Revenue Increases. Global Water Utilities requests approval to consolidate Santa Cruz with Red Rock (water division) and Picacho Water; Palo Verde with Red Rock (wastewater division) and Picacho Utilities; Greater Tonopah with Eagletail and Northern Scottsdale; and Hassayampa with Balterra. Global Water Utilities proposes different revenue increases for the stand-alone systems if consolidation is not approved versus the consolidated systems, as follows:

System

Potential Impact to Bills. The examples below illustrate how residential bills may be impacted with consolidation and without consolidation (standalone) as proposed by Global Water Utilities for a residential customer with the most common meter size for a system and with median monthly water usage for that meter size (or hypothetical usage if a system has no customers). Each customer’s bill, however, is specific to individual usage, meter size, and customer classification. Actual bill impacts will vary. Customers can use the H-4 tables provided in Global Water Utilities’ application available on www.azcc.gov and https:// www.gwresources.com/globalwaterratecase or can contact Global Water Utilities at Utilities at ratecase@gwresources.com or 866-940-1102 to determine the potential change to their own bills.

PUBLIC NOTICE OR BY OTHER PARTIES. If you have any questions concerning how the Application may affect your bill or other substantive questions about the Application, you may contact Global Water Utilities at: ratecase@gwresources. com. How You Can View or Obtain a Copy of the Application Copies of the Application are available from Global Water Resources, Inc. 21410 N. 19th Avenue, Suite 220, Phoenix, Arizona 85027, Phone Number 866940-1102; by emailing a request to ratecase@ gwresources.com; at the Commission’s Docket Control Center at 1200 West Washington Street, Phoenix, Arizona, and the Commission’s office at 400 West Congress Street, Suite 218, Tucson, Arizona, during regular business hours; and on the Commission website (www.azcc.gov) using the e-Docket function. Access to the Commission’s Docket Control Center and the Commission’s Tucson office is restricted due to the COVID-19 pandemic but can be arranged by appointment by calling 602-542-4250. Arizona Corporation Commission Public Hearing Information The Commission will hold a hearing on this matter beginning May 24, 2021, at 10:00 a.m. at the Commission’s offices, 1200 West Washington Street, Phoenix, Arizona. Telephonic public comments will be taken before the hearing commences, as set forth below. Telephonic Public Comment Sessions Due to federal and state COVID-19 pandemic safety guidelines, public comment will not be permitted in person. The Commission will allow telephonic public comment to be provided as follows:

To provide telephonic public comments, call 1-866705-2554, and enter this code: 241497# The Commission will impose a three-minute time limit per speaker, to maximize the number of callers who have an opportunity to speak. That time limit may be extended by the presiding Administrative Law Judge. There may be a significant wait time to speak, and callers will be muted until it is their turn to speak. However, once placed into the proceeding, callers will be able to har the comments of other callers

through the phone line. Callers should turn off their computer audio during the public comment meeting, as the live stream on azcc.gov is delayed by 28 seconds and may cause feedback when it is the caller’s turn to speak. The Commission encourages callers to use landline telephones for the telephonic public comment meetings, as mobile telephones do not consistently provide adequate audio quality to permit the verbatim transcriptions of telephonic speech. If a caller cannot be sufficiently understood to make an accurate transcription, the caller will be requested to file written comments in the docket. Written public comments may be submitted by mailing a letter referencing Docket No. SW20445A-20-0214 et. al. to Arizona Corporation Commission, Consumer Service Section, 1200 West Washington, Phoenix, AZ 85007, or by submitting comments on the Commission’s website (www.azcc. gov) using “Cases and Open Meetings” and “Make a Public Comment in a Docket.” If you require assistance, you may contact the Consumer Service Section at 602-542-4251 or 1-800-222-7000. If you do not intervene in this proceeding, you will receive no further notice of the proceedings in this docket unless you sign up to Follow the Docket. However, all documents filed in this docket are available online (usually within 24 hours after docketing) at the Commission’s website (www. azcc.gov) using the e-Docket function. Information on how to Follow a Docket is available on the Commission’s website by clicking on “Cases and Open Meetings” and “Follow a Docket or Document Type.” About Intervention The law provides for an open public hearing at which, under appropriate circumstances, interested persons may intervene. An interested person may be grated intervention if the outcome of the case will directly and substantially impact the person, and the person’s intervention will not unduly broaden the issues in the case. Intervention, among other things, entitles a party to present sworn evidence at hearing and to cross-examine other parties’ witnesses. Intervention is not required for you to provide telephonic public comment, to file written comments in the record of the case, or to receive emailed notice of each filing made in the case by following the docket. Information about what intervention means, including an explanation of the rights and responsibilities of an intervenor, is available on the Commission’s website (www.azcc.gov) by clicking on “Cases and Open Meetings” and then clicking on “Intervene in a Case.” The information includes a Sample Intervention Request and a

Fillable Intervention Request Form. To request intervention, you must file a written request to intervene, either (a) by filing a hard copy request (meeting filing requirements) with Docket control (Docket Control, 1200 West Washington, Phoenix, AZ 85007), or (b) by eFiling the request. Your request must be filed or eFiled no later than February 16, 2021. Instructions and restrictions for eFiling are available on the Commission’s website at http://azcc.gov/hearing/efile-for-utilitiesinstruction. You also must serve a copy of the request to intervene on each party of record, on the same day that you file the request to intervene with the Commission. Your request to intervene must contain the information below: 1. Your name, address, and telephone number; 2. A reference to Docket No. SW-20445A-20-0214 et. al; 3. A short statement explaining: a. Your interest in the proceeding (e.g., a property owner in an area to be affected by the case, etc.), b. How you will be directly and substantially affected by the outcome of the case, and c. Why your intervention will not unduly broaden the issues in the case; 4. A statement certifying that you have sent a copy of your request to intervene to Global Water Utilities through their attorney and to all other parties of record in the case; and 5. If you are not represented by an attorney who is an active member of the Arizona State Bar, and you are not representing yourself as an individual, sufficient information and any appropriate documentation to demonstrate compliance with Arizona Supreme Court Rules 31, 38, 39, and 42, as applicable. This only applies if you are NOT representing yourself and you are not a licensed attorney. The granting of motions to intervene shall be governed by A.A.C. R14-3-105, except that all motions to intervene must be filed on or before February 16, 2021. ADA/Equal Access Information The Commission does not discriminate on the basis of disability in admission to its public meetings. Persons with a disability may request a reasonable accommodation such as a sign language interpreter, as well as request this document in an alternative format, by contacting the ADA Coordinator, Carolyn Buck, E-mail ADACoordinator@azcc.gov, voice phone number 602-542-2247. Requests should be made as early as possible and no later than 48 hours in advance of the event to allow time to arrange the accommodation.
