Mesa moving on bold downtown plan 3-pronged vision includes Sale of city land to help pay hi-tech ASU campus, studio for campus, both stadiums BY JORDAN HOUSTON Tribune Staff Writer
M
esa’s downtown is one step closer to a major makeover. During a recent City Council study session, Downtown Transformation Manager Jeff McVay gave an update on a large downtown project and introduced two others — a new Arizona State University location at the Mesa City Center, accompanied by studios, and a Co+Hoots at Benedictine University. The three projects are part of a larger effort to breathe life into the city’s downtown area while establishing an Innovation District, said McVay.

esa plans to use proceeds from the sale of several pieces of city land to avoid tapping into its Enterprise Fund for an estimated two or three years to pay off excise bonds sold to finance Arizona State University’s downtown center. City Manager Chris Brady told the City Council that the final sale of land purchased decades ago in Pinal County, anticipated on July 1, would not only pay off the bonds on Sloan Park and Hohokam Stadium, but also contribute toward paying off the ASU bonds.

ora Hulsman swung into action quickly when she heard about a terminally ill Chandler mother of two whose last wish was to go on a family trip to LEGOLAND. Hulsman was at a budget meeting for the nonprofit East Valley Women’s League when she learned that Annastacia Alley was terminally ill with cancer — and that there was no money in the group’s budget to help make that wish come true. So, Hulsman took it upon herself to gather the funds. Alley said she chose LEGOLAND because she wanted to go on one last family vacation
with her children, husband and mother, hoping the kids — both under 4 — will remember how much fun they had for those couple of days with her. At 29, Alley is the youngest documented person in the world to have no major medical issues and be stricken with neuroendocrine cancer, an aggressive hormone-producing cancer that has developed into tumors and spread from her chest to her liver, bones and lungs. “I was told [Alley] could pass at any moment, so I knew I needed to get the money fast if we were going to make this happen for her,” said Hulsman.

EV responsible for half of all new jobs in 2018
Among the industries with the biggest job gains were manufacturing, technology and financial services, Barney added. In Mesa, AQST Space Systems relocated its headquarters to Falcon Field Airport from Puerto Rico, while Eclipse Automation Inc. — a supplier of custom automated manufacturing equipment for the life sciences, energy, transportation, mining, industrial and telecommunications industries – invested $1 million in its third manufacturing facility. The supplier plans on hiring more than 50 automation engineers and technicians over the next year. Meanwhile, Chandler saw a new FinTech startup Brightside Benefit, Inc., office, which hired 25 new employees and is looking to hire another dozen, and a Liberty Mutual Insurance location, with expec-
tations of 750 immediate jobs openings and 1,000 additional ones in the future. On Q Financial set up shop in Tempe, with a 44,603-square-foot office for the online provider of mortgage tools for home loans, mortgages, electronic lending and loans. “The momentum is there. It’s not just about new jobs, but it’s about the right kind of jobs,” said Barney. “We’re finally getting the respect we thought we deserved.” The CEO attributed the region’s attractiveness to a myriad of factors, including Arizona’s economic advantages as a whole — such as weather and proximity to California — but also reasons specific to the East Valley. “We [the East Valley] sit in the shadows of Phoenix — it’s a great city. The whole purpose of the partnership is to make sure our message isn’t lost in that broader narrative,” he said. “We think we have a different value proposition than Phoenix, or the West Side. I think it’s probably the quality of the housing inventory that’s available and the quality of transportation and the schools.” According to its website, the PHX East Valley Partnership dedicates its mission to the economic development and promotion of the region while advocating for education, transportation and infrastructure, arts, behavioral health and other “important areas.”
impacts.” In the East Valley, only Mesa saw an increase in its homeless population — 206 from 144 the year before. Gilbert’s and Chandler’s homeless counts were the same as the prior year at two and 54, respectively, according to MAG. Scottsdale saw an uptick to 76 from 67 in 2018 while Fountain Hills and Paradise Valley reported none. The PIT Count serves as a one-night snapshot of homelessness in the region and includes both an unsheltered and sheltered count. Overall, volunteer counters found 6,614 people experiencing homelessness within the region, an increase of 316 people from 2018. Nearly 13 percent reported to be experiencing homelessness for the first time, which translates to more than 400 people. U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development mandates the count of those living on the streets or in shelters in order to dole out federal funding for homeless programs.
The information also helps identify trends and help target critical funding and services to those most in need, according to MAG, which oversees the count in Maricopa County. For the first time, the 2019 unsheltered count also included a tally of pets. Overall data identified 182 pets on the street, 10 of which were service animals. The Continuum of Care, which submitted the required point-in-time data to HUD last week, is expected to release a full analysis of the 2019 count later this year. “We will dive deeper into the findings to better understand root causes of homelessness,” said Tempe Police Sgt. Robert Ferraro, who co-chairs the Maricopa Regional Continuum of Care Board. “We want to know what leads to chronic homelessness, what leads to first-time homelessness, and the causes of veteran and family homelessness.” The Continuum of Care also will look at factors such as eviction rates and affordable housing, and see what solutions can be recommended, Ferraro said.

T
he East Valley generated nearly half the total job growth in Maricopa County in 2018, according to data from the CBRE Research, Arizona Commerce Authority and Greater Phoenix Economic Council. The PHX East Valley Partnership, which represents a coalition of business, education and municipal leaders, said 13,500 of the new 28,000 jobs were born in Chandler, Gilbert, Mesa, Tempe Queen Creek and Apache Junction. Six of the top 10 major job creation announcements were also concentrated in the area, including 5,000 jobs each for Allstate in Chandler and Deloitte in Gilbert, as well as 1,200 new positions for the Wells Fargo in Tempe and 1,000 from Voya in Chandler. Partnership President/CEO Denny Barney said the recent job success will only bring more success. “It’s kind of a self-fulfilling prophecy. We get one or two companies here and then everyone else is saying, ‘hey, why aren’t we there?’” he said. “As we get additional pressure into the market place, that drives overall values in real estate and retail demand. It’s one of those ‘all ships rise with the tide’ things. All jobs bring secondary and tertiary jobs that come with it.”

he number of people sleeping on Valley streets or in their cars increased this year by 21.7 percent over 2018, according to Maricopa Association of Governments (MAG). Numbers recently released showed those living in unsheltered situations continued to climb for the sixth straight year in Maricopa County. The annual Point-inTime Homeless Count in January found 3,188 people without shelter compared with 2,618 in 2018. “We are not surprised, and we are troubled by these numbers,” said Amy Schwabenlender, co-chair of the Maricopa Regional Continuum of Care Board and executive director of the Human Services Campus. “This should be of concern to everyone living in the Valley,” she added. “The ripple effects of homelessness touch individuals, families, neighborhoods and communities.

bring food to the table. He said those few years taught him the most about discipline and perseverance. “Food was difficult to come by — men, women and children spent hours waiting in food lines for their daily ration,” said Albert. “Every penny was spent frugally and we pooled our resources to get by.” When Albert graduated from Alameda High School in 1934, he embarked on a Transpacific Yacht sailboat race from Los Angeles to Hawaii — a 2,225-mile trip — with four friends. The group sailed on a borrowed 35-footsailboat and spent three weeks out on the
briny ocean, using radio signals to navigate the choppy waters. The trip wasn’t all smooth-sailing though, Albert and his friends lost a majority of their food labels during a storm — almost costing them their trip. But that didn’t stop Albert from having the trip of a life time, he said. “Being 18 and just getting out of high school, combined with the method of taking a shower in the rain showers and finally enjoying the soft sounds of music from my accordion buddy — I think about those memories every day,” he said. Soon after, Albert received his Coast
Guard license in San Francisco and became a tugboat skipper, towing Navy ships in and out of the bay area. He also spent time as a maintenance engineer, repairing engines and submarines, before meeting the woman of his dreams. Albert met his late wife Shirley Lorrine at a mutual friend’s birthday party and it was “love at first sight.” “She was coming down the stairs and I saw her — and that was it,” said the sailor. “I married her in 1936 on May 31 — Memorial Day. We picked that day so I would never forget our marriage date.” The couple spent 68 years together, traveling across the country in their motor home — including visits to New York City, Boston and Washington, D.C. Albert described traveling as one of life’s greatest teachers, and encourages everyone to find the time to do it. “It broadens your understanding of things,” he said. “You can read an article in a paper but, if you’ve been there, it’s something else.” Albert and Shirley eventually followed their mutual passion for square-dancing to Arizona, which was a hotspot for the hobby at the time. They later had two sons, Kenneth and William. When asked about what makes for a long and healthy marriage, Albert said patience is crucial. “The key is understanding,” he explained. “We all have problems, the thing is how you work them out.” Nowadays, Albert, who recently passed his driver’s test, said he likes to think of Shirley and reminisce on all of his travels. But he can still bust out a square-dancing move if he needs to, he added.
nosed as mentally ill. He said that Redondo’s father, who also has been incarcerated, programmed his son from a young age to hate police and perceive them as a threat. Deputy County Attorney Juan Martinez argued for the death penalty, saying that Redondo had already been convicted of killing another man in Miami, Arizona, in March 2009 and that Redondo used a deadly weapon to murder Shuhandler. Martinez also called Redondoa malingerer, accusing him of faking his mental health condition for years to avoid trial. Shuhandler was the father of two daughters, who both testified about the impact of his murder on their lives at a young age.
Both women said they treasure the memory of their father, even though they had him for too short of a period. An Arizona State University student, Meredith Shuhandler has said previously that she uses her father’s memory as an inspiration. Eric Shuhandler’s slaying touched off a wild chase down U.S. 60, during which air conditioning parts were tossed out a pickup truck in the path of pursuing patrol cars from Gilbert and Mesa. Eventually, the chase ended in a shootout with police, after the driver of the pickup, Daimen Irizarry, ran out of gas in Superior. The suspects hid behind the pickup truck until police shot Redondo’s
ankles, causing him to collapse. Irizarry previously received a 107-year sentence. Comments on Shuhandler’s memorial Facebook page indicated that jurors were divided on the life sentence, with one woman apologizing to the family. “I would like to say I’m sorry to the family that we didn’t get it right,’’ she wrote. Another woman, who identified herself as the jury foreman, wrote, “I’m hurting so much... it took so much to sign that verdict and even harder to hand it to the bailiff. Please know we did our best!’’ Sgt. Bill Balafas, a Gilbert police spokesman, said, “We are thankful for the difficult service and the decision the jury had to make concerning sentencing Redondo.’’

W
hen Albert Vargas was born May 4, 1915, Woodrow Wilson was president and World War I was less than a year old. Recently, the east Mesa resident ruminated on all the time that has passed since then as he celebrated his 104th birthday. Friends and family members joined the centenarian last week to celebrate the milestone after his close friend Richard Stauder organized a party at Dreamland Villa, complete with cake, live music, presents and well wishes. Albert, who has a warm smile and sharp sense of humor, said the key to his longevity has been a “healthy lifestyle” and longtime exposure to salt-water air. “No smoking, very little drinking and a lot of fresh air,” he said. “I did a lot of sailing so I was out on the water. I was in good salt air for years and it was just a real good life.” Albert had an active childhood by the sea, growing up in Alameda, California. His father was the owner of a cargo ship and Albert said he enjoyed accompanying him on his shipping trips because he felt carefree on the sea — something that would turn into a life-long appreciation for the deep blue. “It’s the rhythm — when I was still home there’d be a storm and I’d go down and sleep on my boat and listen to the rain patter on,” he said. “I just love the water.” But at 15, everything changed. Albert’s family was hit by the Great Depression in 1929, forcing Albert to mature at an early age. When he wasn’t in school, he was working on the waterfront to help

‘Jury sentences Gilbert officer’s killer to life TRIBUNE NEWS STAFF
A
Maricopa County Superior Court jury decided the killer of Gilbert Police Lt. Eric Shuhandler will receive a life sentence in prison, not death. Judge David Cunanan is scheduled to issue the final sentence to Christopher Redondo on Friday, May 17, ending a case that started tragically on Jan. 28, 2010, when Shuhandler was shot in the face during a traffic stop near Val Vista Drive and Baseline Road. Dan Raynak, Redondo’s defense attorney, had argued that his client suffers from brain damage he sustained from repeated beatings as a child and has been diag-

MOM from page 1
“As a mother and a wife, there was just no choice, you know, we had to make it happen for her somehow.” Hulsman took to Facebook and pleaded for the community to donate to Alley’s cause. She knocked on neighbor’s doors and sent out personal emails to those volunteering for the East Valley Women’s League. Within three days, Hulsman collected $6,000 for the family, and soon enough, the trip was booked. As Alley awaited her trip’s departure date, she spent most of her days undergoing chemotherapy to build up her immune system — but she traveled with a face mask and a wheelchair just in case. She added she wanted to “see their faces when they see the ocean for the first time and realize how much larger the world is than them.” The mother of 18-month-old Parker Jane and 3-and-a-half-year-old Braden, said that while most parents dream of the day they get to see their children graduate high school, she spent her time before the trip writing her children letters to open on a date she knew she’d have to miss. “More than anything I want [my kids] to know mommy did everything she could to fight for them. She did her best to make it. I gave it everything I had and I want them to know that,” said Alley. Her grim discovery came while she was expecting Parker Jane. Alley had trouble breathing during her pregnancy, but said doctors told her, “When you’re pregnant nothing really works. Like, oh memory loss? That’s normal, you’re pregnant.” She was sent home with an inhaler. After Parker Jane was born, her struggle to breath hadn’t subsided. Alley paid another visit to Chandler Regional Hospital, where doctors discovered that a tumor had wrapped itself around an airway to her right lung and was pushing on her esophagus. The next day Alley started chemo and spent 16 subsequent days in the hospital, giving her no time to process her diagnosis or bond with her newborn. “It was just really hard in the beginning to not be able to give [Parker Jane] everything I wanted to give her. I feel like every mom has that guilt to some degree,

and know it was even more aggressive it was just so defeating,” said Alley. Without being able to radiate Alley’s liver and with her cancer disqualifying her from a transplant, chemo was her last chance to get the disease in check.

GOP sex abuse tiff stymies state budget process BY HOWARD FISCHER Capitol Media Services
P
lans for a Republican-crafted budget blew up last week when a second GOP lawmaker said she won’t vote for a spending plan unless and until the state gives victims of childhood sexual abuse more time to sue their attackers. Sen. Heather Carter, R-Cave Creek, said providing legal relief to victims is too important to allow business as usual. “Sometimes there are issues that transcend everything else we do down at the Capitol,’’ she told Capitol Media Services. “It’s time for Arizona to improve its state statutes to help child victims of sexual abuse.’’ What makes Carter’s declaration crucial is that there are only 17 Republicans in the 30-member Senate. And in aligning with Sen. Paul Boyer, R-Phoenix, who already has said he is a holdout, Senate President Karen Fann, R-Prescott, has no working GOP majority. Fann already was having trouble keeping the troops in line: Sen. Michelle Ugenti-Rita, R-Scottsdale, has threatened to withhold her vote from the budget unless the state repeals a $32-a-vehicle licensing fee. Fann said she’s not ready to panic. “This is all part of the process,’’ she said. “This isn’t the first time we’ve heard people say, ‘I’m a “no’’ on the budget unless I get what I want.’ ‘’ And Fann said she has no problem with the general concept of what Boyer wants. “Obviously we would like to make sure that victims really should have that opportunity to be able to confront their abusers,’’ she said. “I’ve read the report where it says that sometimes they don’t realize what happened to them until they were 40 years old,’’ Fann said. “I get all that.’’ But the Senate president said she believes that his proposal, as it stands, could create new “victims,’’ including business owners who end up being sued decades later for acts that may or may not have been committed by employees who are long gone. Carter, however, said she’s not buying that. “Arizona would not be the first state to do this,’’ she said, saying other states have greatly expanded the time for child sex abuse victims to bring civil claims.
Carter said this isn’t just about seeking damages for prior victims. She said there are situations where the same person has remained in a position of trust and with access to children. “Real cases were brought forth,’’ Carter said. “And real children who were being molested could be protected by removing that perpetrator from that situation.’’ The fight is over current Arizona law which says child victims of sexual assault or abuse have two years after they turn 18 to file a civil suit. Boyer, citing the studies about some children not realizing they were victims until decades later, seeks two key changes to the law. First, he wants to extend the statute of limitations to seven years instead of two. More significant, he wants that clock to start running when someone knows or should have known he or she has been a victim, rather than the person’s 18th birthday. Second, he wants to allow those for whom the statute of limitations already has run to have a two-year “window’’ to file new claims. Sen. Eddie Farnsworth, R-Gilbert, who chairs the Senate Judiciary Committee, agreed to give the bill a hearing only if the bill was altered to conform to stricter time limits. When Boyer balked, Farnsworth killed the hearing. Technically speaking, the time for hearing legislation in committee has ended. But Carter said she’s sure that something can be worked out, especially with Senate leadership needing the support of at least 16 of its members for the budget — or having to go to Democrats for votes, which means adding spending that some GOP lawmakers may find unacceptable. “Everything is possible while we’re still in session,’’ she said. “There’s nothing stopping us from updating our statutes this year, while we are still in session.’’ Fann also said that there already is a window of sorts in the law. She said there is no statute of limitations on criminal charges of child abuse. That permits prosecutors to bring charges at whatever point in the future they believe they have a case. Fann said the way the law now reads permits victims to file civil suits within two years of any criminal charges being brought, whether or not the person is convicted of the criminal charges.

DOWNTOWN from page 1
“There are multiple goals we’re trying to achieve here. The simple one is the basic desire to have a more active and vibrant downtown,” he said. “More specifically though, we’re trying to create an innovation district ecosystem, which is about trying to generate more opportunities for businesses and employment that will feed the general economy of downtown.” Innovation districts, according to Brookings Institution, are geographic areas where “leading-edge” anchor institutions and companies cluster to connect with start-ups and business incubators. They are generally compact, transit-accessible and technically-wired and offer mixed-use housing, office and retail. The potential payoff for creating this type of district, said McVay, includes job and economic growth and more municipal revenue. “The reason these three projects came together is that we’re trying to create a very tech-focused environment that is going to attract corporate partnerships and entrepreneurial tech-startups,” he stated. The satellite ASU campus will serve as the district’s anchor tenant. The project — which Council approved last June — will train students in “transdiciplinary digital expertise.” It will incorporate the ASU Creative Futures Laboratory, including academic programs offered by
LAND SALE from page 1
Among the other properties scheduled to be sold off to pay back the ASU bonds are the site for The Union, a large office complex planned for near Riverview Park, and a former Mervyn’s department store located on Stapley Drive north of Main Street, near a new Valley Metro light rail station. The Pinal County land, originally purchased for water rights but later considered unnecessary, is only one in a series of land sales the city plans to raise funds that will partially pay off the controversial $63.5 million ASU campus, earmarked for high-tech digital education programs. The Pinal County “water ranch’’ was purchased for $33 million in 1985 and included more than 11,400 acres near Coolidge and Eloy. Selling off parcels from the ranch was a critical component in the city’s bid to build Sloan Park in 2010 and to prevent the Cubs from moving to Naples, Florida. Brady reported that this year’s proposed budget includes no money from the Enterprise Fund that would be earmarked to pay off debt on the ASU building, billed as the cornerstone of downtown Innova-
the Herberger Institute for Design and the Arts that are related to digital and sensory technology, experiential design, gaming, media arts, film production and entrepreneurial development and support. With a 99-year lease agreement, the ASU campus is projected to serve more than 750 students, faculty and staff. “The types of programs that ASU will be providing at the new facility are truly the type that can easily be monetized,” said McVay. “It’s easy for a student to come out of that program with a skill set and an education background that would lead them to be entrepreneurs and create tech startups.” The overall budget is $63.5 million and construction will begin next February. The goal, said McVay, is to have students attending classes by January 2022. As part of its intergovernmental agreement with ASU, the city will also design and construct studios at the City Center to compliment the new campus. The university will offer an Innovation Studio to provide a physical space for collaboration while connecting the startup community to academic programs. “We’re providing a space where students from the ASU building, corporate partners and the general public can all be in the same space and get those chance collisions of ideas that end up becoming collaborations and the start of new downtown businesses,” McVay said. The studios will be adjacent to the
tion District. Giles and other city officials consider the ASU building the centerpiece of an “Innovation District,’’ intended to spawn start-up companies and help create high paying jobs in Mesa, which has lagged behind other East Valley cities in education level and disposable income. “We do not have any funds from the enterprise fund going to pay for this building,’’ Brady said. “We anticipate it will all come from the sale of city assets.’’ The Enterprise Fund, mainly fed by proceeds from Mesa’s electric utility, is one of three major sources of revenue that pays for government services, including police, fire, libraries and parks. “Instead of having to tap into the Enterprise Fund to make the payments, we are using the sale of the land in Pinal County to make the payments,’’ Brady told council at a study session. This year alone, Brady said the city is planning to transfer $110 million from the fund to the General Fund, a practice that has been used since 1945 to compensate for Mesa’s lack of property tax. Giles said the property tax was abolished during the post-World War II boom and it is not politically viable to bring it

planned ASU campus and have a proposed budget of $8 million. The third project consists of designing and constructing about 10,000 squarefeet within Benedictine University’s Gillette Hall for Co+Hoots — the Phoenixbased company’s second location. Co+Hoots is a shared office location that promotes collaboration while providing professional, inspirational and self-sustaining space to “grow and nurture entrepreneurship,” according to its website. The company seeks to encourage collaboration and coworking between businesses and individuals through working in a shared environment. “Adding Co+Hoots gives another advantage to these kids coming out of school. They’re going to come out with a degree and educational understanding of business, but also with a real-world understanding after learning from the people in Co+Hoots,” said McVay. “Our goal is to generate a bunch of new businesses that start in Co+Hoots and decide to stay in Mesa for a long time,” he added. Co+Hoots and Benedictine will create a new entrepreneurial business program that will provide Benedictine students mentors, internships and discounted memberships. The design and construction of this project is estimated to cost between $1.5 and $2 million.
back. Mesa voters have rejected efforts to do so in the past. “We are using the 1945 system and it is working. If we try to monkey with it, I fear dire consequences,’’ Giles said. But Giles’ efforts of Giles to scale back the project and finance it with bonds — rather than a sales tax increase rejected two years ago by voters — created a continuing political split in the council. The rift was evident when council members Jeremy Whittaker and Kevin Thompson criticized Brady’s plans to use the land sales to pay off the ASU bonds. Whittaker and Thompson both voted against the ASU building a year ago. Whittaker criticized the city for failing to adequately replace infrastructure, including water pipes past their life expectancy. Thompson said the money would have been better used on east Mesa public service facilities. East Mesa fire and police stations are included in a bond issue approved by voters last fall. “I think there is a better use for those funds,’’ said Thompson, who represents growing southeast Mesa. Jeff McVay, Mesa’s downtown transformation manager, said that ASU at Mesa City Center’s opening has been delayed
Funding sources for these projects though, became a hot-button issue during the study session. McVay told the council funding would come from proceeds from the sale of city assets, construction sales tax, excise tax revenue bonds and the economic investment fund. Interrupting the downtown manager’s presentation, Councilman Kevin Thompson said the money should be put to better use. “Why aren’t we using those funds to pay for projects that need to be done, like public safety facilities or libraries or other assets for the city?” he asked. “Instead of always putting them toward debt service or buying something else?” While City Manager Chris Brady disagreed with Thompson, Councilman Jeremy Whittaker echoed his fellow councilman’s sentiments. Whittaker suggested the money be funneled toward crumbling water infrastructure, but was quickly shot down. “For anyone to suggest the utility is insolvent and not producing infrastructure is not a correct statement — we can uphold against any other system,” said Brady. “We have sufficient water. To say we are short-changing the utility is just not true.” Because this was the first time the latter two projects were introduced to the council, they won’t be up for approval until a “guaranteed maximum price” is provided for both.
for about three months to avoid overtime costs. He said the final design should be completed in February 2020, when construction will begin on site immediately to the east of City Hall. The project is expected to be completed by October 2021. ASU would begin classes in January 2022. “We are holding very hard to the $63.5 million cost approved,’’ McVay said. “We are doing a very good job to make sure we will not be over-budget.’’ Last week Brady sought to step away from comments he made at a council meeting a week earlier when he said the proceeds from the controversial sale of a 132-acre site near Red Mountain Ranch in northeast Mesa would also go toward paying off the ASU project. Brady said the city’s intent in putting the undulating, saguaro-studded track up for bid was never related to the ASU project. He said the site, north of Thomas Road, was intended as a substitute for a site south of Thomas that the city considers inappropriate for residential development because of its critical location in Falcon Field’s flight path.

State House OKs big limits on initiatives BY HOWARD FISCHER Capitol Media Services
S
tate House Republicans voted last week to put some new hurdles in the path of groups that seek to propose their own laws and constitutional amendments. At a bare minimum, SB 1451 — approved on a party-line vote by the Republican-controlled House — imposes new requirements on those who actually go out and gather the signatures. That includes registering with the Secretary of State’s Office and prohibiting petitions from being circulated by people who have been convicted of certain crimes. Rep. Pamela Powers Hannley, D-Tucson, pointed out that the Republicans who want that change in the initiative process are not applying those same rules to those who circulate their own nominating petitions. Rep. Jennifer Jermaine, a Democrat whose district includes part of Gilbert, accused Republican lawmakers of trying to undermine the petition process and make it more difficult, particularly for grass-
roots organizations, because they’re unhappy that voters gathered petitions and overturned their 2017 proposal to expand vouchers of taxpayer dollars for parents to send their kids to private and parochial schools. “Save Our Schools Arizona did not have big money backers,’’ she said, referring to the group that defeated the voucher move. “These were moms, dads, grandparents and everyday Arizonans who stood up to this legislative body and said ‘no.’‘’ But a potentially greater change would give the attorney general the unilateral power to alter the 50-word description of the measure that appears on the ballot. And the only remedy for someone who disagrees would be to sue. That, however, may not be a true recourse: The approved ballot description generally becomes publicly available only days before ballots are set to be printed. And that may not be enough time to pursue a legal challenge. “This is a blatant power grab,’’ argued Rep. Randy Friese, D-Tucson. He said current law gives the attorney general the power only to approve or reject the language crafted by the secretary
Let’s grow together in Mesa! It’s our sixth location in the Valley!
of state. That, said Friese, requires a back-andforth between the two elected officials to come up with something on which both can agree. The change would cement into law what happened last year when a key aide to Attorney General Mark Brnovich altered the description of Proposition 127, an initiative which would have required that half of all power generated in Arizona by 2030 come from renewable sources. Beau Roysden added language stating that the renewable energy mandate would occur “irrespective of cost to consumers.’’ That was precisely the argument Arizona Public Service was using in its $13 million campaign to quash the initiative. In fact, within days of the change, a picture of the ballot with that new language highlighted showed up on APS-financed TV ads. Eric Spencer, who was state elections director at the time under Republican Secretary of State Michele Reagan, called the new verbiage “eyebrow raising’’ and suggested it comes with “legal and political risks.’’ But Spencer did not challenge
the new wording. Spencer, now an attorney in private practice, told Capitol Media Services that Brnovich probably has the power to make changes, especially on strictly legal matters. But he questioned how far that goes when making “policy changes’’ in descriptions. “Any disagreement between the two offices should be worked out through negotiation, assuming there is still time before the ballot and publicity pamphlet printing deadline,’’ Spencer said. That’s precisely what Rep. Mitzi Epstein, D-Tempe, said should occur — and will not occur with the change in the law. She said that 50-word description on the ballot is often the only language that some voters ever see. What makes the change in SB 1451 so critical is that the last election resulted in Democrat Katie Hobbs being elected as secretary of state with Republican Mark Brnovich returned to office. Putting this language into statute ensures that, at least for the next four years, it would be the Republican who gets the

LAND SALE from page 8
“There was no conspiracy here,’’ Brady said. Giles also said the intent was to sell the Thomas and Recker property as a substitute for the other site and to use part of the proceeds to develop a hiking trail through the property. He said the proceeds from the sale of all city property, or any other one-time payment, go into the Enterprise Fund. The mayor noted that voters had turned down a park bond twice to develop the Recker and Thomas property and that he viewed the auction as a way to retire debt and develop park facilities at the same time. Giles has said he envisions a high-end residential development, but also a hiking and bicycling trail that would preserve some of the natural site, which includes a desert wash and commanding views of Red Mountain. Although Blandford Homes has bid $21.1 million for the Recker and Thomas property, exceeding an appraisal that valued it at $15.6 million, the council has not decided whether to approve the sale, Brady said. The top priority for any funds derived from the Recker and Thomas sale would be plowing about $4 million back into
park facilities in northeast Mesa, Brady said. That would ensure that the original funds spent for the site in 1998 are used for their intended purpose. Council member David Luna, who represents the district that includes Red Mountain Ranch, said he never envisioned a direct link between the land auction and ASU and still doesn’t believe that’s the case. Verl Farnsworth, Luna’s opponent in last year’s election and an outspoken critic of the council, said he is still hoping to block the land sale and leave the Recker and Thomas property in its natural state.
Mesa schools clarifies override tax impact
Mesa Public Schools clarified its website statement of the tax impact if a 15 percent budget override passes in November, stating it will add $4.92 per month per $100,000 of assessed valuation for a total of $14.76 per month. The website did not differentiate between the current impact of the 10 percent override that has been in effect and the added impact of adding another 5 percent to that override percentage.

last word. Ballot descriptions aside, Democrats said SB 1451 is just another attempt by Republicans to make it more difficult to put measures on the ballot. Prior changes approved by the GOPcontrolled Legislature include a ban on paying petition circulators on a per-signature basis — another provision that lawmakers have not applied to their own petitions. They also require that petitions be in “strict compliance’’ with all election laws. That latter change overturned court rulings which said that petitions need be only in “substantial compliance,’’ a standard that allows measures to go to the ballot despite technical errors. These changes, supported by the Arizona Chamber of Commerce and Industry, followed a series of voter-approved measures opposed by the business community, ranging from a ban on leghold traps on state lands and allowing the medical use of marijuana to creating a state minimum wage higher than what is required by federal law. Rep. John Kavanagh, R-Fountain Hills, said the new changes are appropriate. He said that the initiative process — the abil-
ity of citizens to propose their own laws — has been “perverted’’ because it has become a tool of out-of-state millionaires. That specifically includes California billionaire Tom Steyer who funded Proposition 127. But Rep. Raquel Teran, D-Phoenix, said the supporters of this change are not the groups who have mounted their own initiative drives when the Legislature has failed to act but the corporations and special interests that unsuccessfully fought those voter-approved changes. The new law, if approved by the Senate and signed by the governor, also would affect pending initiative drives to put issues on the 2020 ballot. That includes a constitutional proposal to require full disclosure of the true sources of money spent on political races, ending the ability of some “dark money’’ groups to refuse to disclose their donors. Rep. Cesar Chavez, D-Phoenix, chided Republicans for complaining about “outside influences’’ on Arizona politics. “I’ve heard about the California billionaire,’’ he said, “But we haven’t heard about the brothers from Kansas,’’ referring to Charles and David Koch, the conservative billionaires who have funneled money through various groups into campaigns in Arizona.

Among the Mesa scholars is Jordan Harb of Mountain View High School, executive director of the March for Our Lives movement in Arizona and national field strategist for the organization. March for Our Lives – in which two other Flinn Scholars are active – arose after the Valentine’s Day slaughter of 17 people, including 14 students, at a Parkland, Florida, high school last year.

The other two are Amanda Schuerman of Gilbert, a senior at Gilbert Classic Academy, and Anna Lee Iverson, a Chandler High senior. The 20 Flinn Scholars have achieved at least a 3.5 grade-point average, a top-5 percent class rank and a score of at least 1340 on the SAT or 29 on the ACT, and demonstrates exceptional leadership in extracurricular activities. They were chosen from a record-high number of 894 applicants. “Each Flinn Scholar we meet is unique, but these students have something in common besides the capacity to excel in the classroom,” said Tammy McLeod, Flinn Foundation president and CEO. “They have deep dedication to their schools, communities, the future of Arizona and the world.”
Flinn program director Anne Lassen added: “The academic accomplishments, extracurricular involvement and dedication to service this group has demonstrated are remarkable, and we have high hopes for their future contributions.” Here’s a look at the scholars: AMANDA ABDELSAMAD, Corona del Sol High School, Tempe. Described as “a well-spoken, positive, and kind young woman with an unmatched work ethic and drive,” Amanda credits her parents for her work ethic and their reminder that nothing in life is free. She holds down a full time job in addition to being active in the school debate team and a volunteer at Dignity Chandler Regional Medical Center.

partial skeletons of the species in the Moreno Hill formation in the Zuni Basin of western New Mexico in the late 1990s – marking a 20-year journey to determine what they found. The fossils date back 92 million years ago and are key pieces in understanding the tyrannosaur evolution, explained Wolfe. “This animal is an intermediate form between the very early Theropod dinosaurs – carnivores of the earlier protections,” he said. “And the bone-crunching giants roaming the landscape just before their extinction.” Though the Suskityrannus is related to the massive “bone-crunching” T. Rex, its body is only slightly longer than the skull of its full-grown cousin. With slender skulls and feet, it is believed to have

Mesa museum adds a new dinosaur to its herd BY JORDAN HOUSTON Tribune Staff Writer
T
he Arizona Museum of Natural History unveiled the name of a new prehistoric creature to add to its collection – a relative of the well-known Tyrannosaurus rex. The museum, in partnership with Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University, announced last week the Suskityrannus hazelae – a newly discovered tyrannosauroid dinosaur that stands at roughly 3 feet tall and 9 feet long. More than 50 people filed into the museum’s Dinosaur Hall to listen to Douglas Wolfe, co-discoverer and CEO of Zuni Dinosaur Institute of Geo Sciences, talk about his team’s findings. Wolfe, along with paleontologist Sterling Nesbitt of Virginia Tech, found two

weighed between 45 and 90 pounds. The dinosaur’s diet most likely consisted of hunting small animals, said Wolfe, which can be concluded from features in its skull. “There are teeth on both sides on the upper and lower jaws with little serrations on it, like a steak knife,” he said. “That’s one of the things that really make it clear it’s one of the advanced meat-eating dinosaurs.” Another unique quirk is its featherylike coat. The first Suskityrannus skeleton was found in 1997 by Robert Denton, now a senior geologist with Terracon Consultants, and others during an expedition organized by Wolfe. The second, which is more complete, was found in 1998 by Nesbitt, then a high school junior with a burgeoning interest in paleontology, and Wolfe. While the two specimens were found within about 50 meters of each other, the researchers – whose findings have now been published in the latest online issue of Nature Ecology & Evolution – initially thought they discovered the remains of a dromaeosaur, such as a Velociraptor. There were no known relatives of the T. rex at the time.

“We all have things in the closet we’d like to get done – this is a big thing,” said Wolfe. “This is the candles on the birthday cake for us. This is great.” The name Suskityrannus hazelae is derived from “Suski,” the Zuni Native American tribe word for “coyote,” and the Latin word “tyrannus,” meaning king. Wolfe said the Zuni Tribal Council granted the researchers permission to
use “Suski” in the name. ‘Hazelae’ is for Hazel Wolfe, Douglas Wolfe’s wife, who made the fossil expeditions to the basin possible, he said. At the museum, Paleo-artist Benjamin Paysnoe created a full-scale, fleshed out version of the dinosaur to be put on display, as well as a reproduction of its skeleton. The museum will also permanently house the Suskityrannus fossils.

Mesa duo finds gold in tribute performers BY SRIANTHI PERERA Tribune Contributor
J
erry Lee Lewis, Johnny Cash and John Denver may be departed, but they keep “reappearing” on local stages. Then, there are the impersonators of the living, like the big-voiced Dolly Parton and the effusive Elton John. Thanks to an ever-increasing coterie of loyal baby boomer fans, tribute shows are selling out houses across the Valley. Just ask JR McAlexander, a 25-year theater veteran who founded Mesa-based Showtune Productions in 2011. The former musical director of the now defunct Broadway Palm Dinner Theater in Mesa presented 26 different productions with more than 140 performances during the just-concluded, five-month long season. From January to March next year, he has booked at least 90 performances. He’s also expanding to other Arizona cities, such as Tucson, Oro Valley and Yuma, and to many states, from California to Maine. “It’s been working really well for us,” said McAlexander, who snagged M. Seth Reines, his former co-worker at Broadway Palm, to help him in the role of artistic director. “I can’t be happier in the way it’s all blossomed in the last few years.” When Broadway Palm showed signs of closing, McAlexander was alerted to the tribute concert business by his mom, who lives in a retirement community in Mesa, which puts on high-priced concerts that didn’t offer the talent to match. “I decided I could do that,” McAlexander recalled. He contacted Monica Heuser, who travels the country for Patsy Cline shows that are sanctioned by the star’s estate, “Always, Patsy Cline” and “Just a Closer Walk with Patsy Cline,” and invited her to perform in the Valley. He put together the band, rehearsed and produced the show at Arizona Broadway Theater in Peoria in fall 2011. “It was one of their best-selling shows since they opened. And it sold out the whole week,” McAlexander said. It was the same with the Johnny Cash show. A friend of his was doing the role for large touring companies, but was willing to create a tribute show just by him-

self in the Valley. Some of the acts, such as John Denver, come ready to perform and only needs an orchestra, but McAlexander has created about 80 percent of the concerts he presents. Besides the tributes, Showtune Productions also presented the opening show for Broadway at the Orpheum Theatre: The Music Man in Concert in 2017 and Singin’ in the Rain in Concert in 2018. The company also lays claim to the “Out to Lunch Concert Series” at Mesa Arts Center; “Groovin’ Thru the 60s,” featuring folk rock hits such as The Mamas & The Papas, Peter, Paul & Mary, Simon & Garfunkel; “Let the Good Times Roll,” a show from Nashville that features music and comedy; and Karen Hester, one of the most sought after Dolly Parton tribute singers, as “Dolly.”
In the past, Showtune has presented shows in the East Valley at Chandler Center for the Arts, Queen Creek Performing Arts Center and Apache Junction Performing Arts Center, while retireM. SETH REINES ment communities book its shows over and over again. Among the upcoming shows, “Walking the Line, Johnny Cash Tribute” play at Sun Lakes in May; “Johnny Cash/Jerry Lee Lewis Tribute,” “Elvis, The Early Years!,” “Buddy, Ritchie and The Big Bopper” and “Rocket Man, The Elton John Early Days” perform in July and August at Hale Centre Theatre in Gilbert. Hale sold out its three performances last summer, and plans to add more performances to this year’s offerings if expectations of the shows selling out again come true. This is significant because summertime programming at the Hale gets historically low attendance numbers, Dave Dietlein noted. The tribute artists from last year were “really good,” Dietlein said. As for the au-

dience members, “they were dancing in the aisles. It was crazy; it was fun.” Barb Aldrich of Mesa is one such fan who’s tapping into the music of yesteryear. She used to be an activity director for a retirement community in Mesa and hired the company’s shows. “His shows are a lot more theatrical than some of the others, it’s not just singing, there’s choreography, comedy, a little bit of everything,” she said. “They put together shows that are very, very entertaining.” Aldrich, now gets to see the concerts at her church, which offers them from time to time. Now they go to same church, which offers concert series. Baby Boomer 66. Most of the shows are geared towards my age group or to my parents’ age group,” she said. “The shows that are out now have really gained in popularity because of us Baby Boomers, because we like the music that take us back to that time.” “Everything is tribute,” McAlexander said, referring to the high profile shows of the day, such as “The Cher Show,” “Mamma Mia!” and the “Jersey Boys.” “That’s what’s selling right now. They want to hear the music that they like.” As much as the demand exists, McAlexander knows that he can’t expand beyond the 26 productions without hiring more staff. “At this point, I’m not ready for that. I’m 54 years old,” he said. Reines, who was the artistic producer at Broadway Palm, helps McAlexander cast his productions and directs the company’s original revues. He also collaborates with the costume and lighting designers to help give the shows a professional look. “I have had the pleasure of watching JR’s dream come to fruition as he creates new and exciting productions for venues in both Arizona and across the country,” Reines said. Perhaps the best indication of the duo’s success lies in the fact that two of their competitors, large booking companies based in the Valley, are coming to them to book their shows. “That’s a compliment to my talent and to the performers that are working for me,” McAlexander said.

Tucson case shows nonsensical immigration policy BY DAVID LEIBOWITZ Tribune Columnist
I
t’s been 24 years since I moved to Arizona and nothing much has changed about immigration politics in all that time. The sad, strange case of 18-year-old Thomas Torres-Maytorena proves as much. Thomas, a senior at Desert View High School in Tucson, is said to be virtually everything we look for in a teenager today: A student with graduation robes hanging in his closet for a May 22 diploma ceremony. A cornerback on the Jaguars football team who bussed tables and did yard work to earn cash. A young man with dreams of becoming an electrical engineer, a teen described by his friends to reporters as hard-working, down-to-earth and kind. These are all qualities which typically generate zero news coverage, but for the fact that Torres-Maytorena is in the United States illegally, brought to Ari-
zona as a toddler by his family. With his kin gone back to Mexico, the 18-year-old currently lives in Tucson with the family of his closest buddy. It’s an arrangement that made national headlines last week after Pima County Sheriff’s deputies pulled over TorresMaytorena and two friends on the night of May 2 for driving in a vehicle with suspended insurance. The deputy asked Torres-Maytorena for his driver’s license and ID, according to police. The teen could not provide this, and questioning ensued. Torres-Maytorena ultimately “admitted to the deputy that he was in the country illegally,” according to a Pima Sheriff’s press release. “It was at this point Border Patrol was contacted. Border Patrol proceeded to take custody of Torres-Maytorena.” Torres-Maytorena spent the next five days in an Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility in Casa Grande. On May 6, his Desert View classmates staged a walk out on his behalf, trudging four miles from the school to the Sher-
iff’s Office in a protest covered across Arizona and in the New York Times. Late on May 7th, ICE released Thomas, but not before putting him into deportation proceedings. “An immigration judge with the Department of Justice Executive Office for Immigration Review will determine if Mr. Torres-Maytorena has legal basis to remain in the United States,” explained an ICE spokeswoman. All of which leaves me grappling with the same question I’ve been asking for nearly a quarter century whenever the subject of illegal immigration arises. Is Thomas Torres-Maytorena really the sort of human being we want to spend our limited law enforcement and judicial resources deporting? A teenager for whom Mexico has never been much of a home? A hard-working kid whose most serious crime appears to be overstaying his visa to avoid going back to the Third World? It’s the same question I asked myself back in the mid-1990s, when I trekked to the Arizona-Mexico border for the
first time, meeting people walking north who looked starved of everything from food to opportunity. It’s the same question I asked in 1999 and 2000, when we spent months debating the fate of a little Cuban 5-year-old named Elian Gonzalez, whom the feds ultimately deported after seizing him at gunpoint from his American relatives. In 2010, Arizona passed Senate Bill 1070 and we debated the same question. Nowadays, the same question comes up whenever President Trump boasts about his “big, beautiful wall.” My answer? It’s simple. The only smart immigration solution is one that draws a bright line between deporting real criminals and real threats versus arresting and deporting 18-year-olds like Thomas Torres-Maytorena. That young man is not the problem. The problem is that we have spent the better part of the past 25 years chattering, bickering and twiddling our thumbs, meanwhile doing next to nothing to protect this country or to grant a teenage boy his chance at the American Dream.
students is skyrocketing while resources remain limited. Here in metro Phoenix, we’re seeing an uptick of more hate being leveled at the LGBTQ youth we serve at one n ten, including racial and anti-Semitic slurs. In support of 11-24-year-olds, our organization, one n ten, is redoubling its efforts to give LGBTQ youth the tools they need to be resilient in the face of figuring out who they are and what it means to be LGBTQ. We’re helping them navigate their personal discoveries while facing often harsh reactions from others, including facing hostile environments at home. Suicide is the second leading cause of death for youth ages 15-24, and rates of teen depression and anxiety have increased over the last decade. The CDC reports that between 2006 and 2016 the rate of suicide for youth ages 10-17 increased 70 percent. The increase was even higher for black youth and greater
still for trans youth. EMPACT-Suicide Prevention Center (SPC) is partnering with local high schools to educate students, parents and the community about the warning signs of suicide, bust long-held myths and engage in early identification and referral of those youth at risk for being depressed or showing signs of suicide. Let’s stop whispering about it. Getting youth the help they need quickly is critical. Our missions, at their core, are about saving lives. So, we’re asking you to put your phone down, step away from the computer and notice the warning signs. Empathetically reaching out, checking in and getting someone help can make the difference. We must consider how to build resilient human beings, integrate social and emotional intelligence programs into our schools, as well as teach inclusion and empathy concepts starting as early as middle
school. Primary pediatric health care should include mental health support. We need to invest in enough quality counselors for high school and college campuses that allow for preventive and crisis support. Creating a culture of empathy, belonging and inclusion is an opportunity for a shift to a more sustaining society. We invite you to join our organizations and other efforts to challenge assumptions, advance policies of inclusion, stand for tolerance in your companies, places of worship, homes and at your schools. Invite in empathy, speak openly, reach out to those in need and dedicate time to let the young people around you know they are not alone. A life could depend on it.

Chandler reigns supreme at state track meet BY ZACH ALVIRA Tribune Sports Editor
Chandler medalists
I
f Chandler High School senior Morgan Foster wanted to make a statement at the final meet of her prep career, she accomplished her goal. The Stanford University signee dominated on the track for the Wolves at the Arizona Interscholastic Association’s Track and Field State Championships last week, capturing gold in the girls Division I 800- and 1600-meter runs. She also helped lead Chandler’s relay team to gold in the 4x400- and 4x800-meter relay. “I’ve had kind of an uncertain past month and a half of training,” Foster said. “I’ve been dealing with some small injuries and a really bad illness. Just to be here and get those golds is an amazing feeling.” Battling through adversity is something Foster is used to.

In January, 2018, she was involved in a single-car crash that could have taken her life. She spent nearly a week in the hospital recovering from her injuries, which included a concussion, collapsed lung and a broken arm that required a plate and several screws to fix. She made her way back to the track and won the 800-meter state title just months after her accident. “I would definitely use the word persistent,” Foster said to describe herself. “I’ve had some small bumps in the road and I’ve had some big bumps. But every time I get back up and fight even harder. “It’s taught me a lot about who I am as a person being able to compete at all of these championships.” Foster’s illustrious career at Chandler, where she won five individual gold medals and two silvers, puts her in the conversation as one of the best runners the state has ever seen. With her help, as well as several other Chandler contributors, the girls captured their fourth straight state championship. “I love my team and my coach,” Foster
said. “All of the support from all of the coaches and other kids, it’s crazy it’s over. It’s been a crazy ride. I wouldn’t trade it for anything.” Chandler’s dominance at the state meet extended well beyond the girls program. Freshman Quaron Adams, who also plays football at Chandler, stunned spectators with a 10.49-second 100-meter dash. It was the ninth fastest time ran by a freshman in U.S. history and fastest overall this season. “It feels amazing,” Adams said. “I didn’t know I was capable of it. It’s a lot of hard work.” Following the 100, Adams, along with junior Kiondre Taylor and sophomores Eli Sanders and Tyson Tippett, won gold in the 4x100-meter relay in 41.49 seconds. Sanders, who was a part of Mountain Pointe High School’s championship relay team last season, picked up where he left off in 2018 and gave Chandler the early advantage in the first leg. “We have great coaching and practice that helps us get through the mental and

physical aspect of the race,” Sanders said. “I know my teammates have my back and stay with me through the whole thing.” Tippett ran the second leg for Chandler while Taylor took the third. As the anchor, Adams sealed the victory. “The championship feels nice,” Tippett said. “I love hearing our name called first at the end of the day.” Following the relay, Adams ran the 200-meter dash 21.61 seconds. While he placed second behind Tucson High School’s Johnnie Blockburger, his time is the second-fastest by a freshman in the nation this season. Chandler’s third and final gold medal in the track events came during the 4x400meter relay. Taylor was the only one from

The Wolves went on to finish in 3 minutes, 19.24 seconds to win the event and seal the boys’ state title with 113 team points. “It’s outstanding,” Taylor said. “It’s a pleasure to be coming out here with this family as a team. We had a few bumps along the way but everyone stepped up. I’m thankful for all of this.” The Chandler High boys’ track and field team won the state title at the Arizona Interscholastic Association’s Track & Field State Championships last weekend.

Just over two months after Grijalva and the Trojans basketball team won the 3A state championship, he helped lead Valley Christian’s boys’ track and field program to its second straight state title. “This one feels really good,” Grijalva said. “Everyone did their part. All of the hard work we put in, it all comes down to this and it was truly worth it.” Grijalva ran anchor for Robert Harney, Kyle Juist and Andrew Hanzal in the 4x100-meter relay. He also anchored the 4x400-meter relay with Harney, Geoffrey Grossthal and Tim Jentgen. Valley Christian won gold in both events. Knowing he is the one closing out a race for his team, Grijalva keeps a simple mindset to stay focused during each event. “Finish,” Grijalva said. “All I’m thinking about is finish. That’s every time. I don’t want to let my team down no matter what. As long as I finish, I know I didn’t let them down.” Grijalva also ran the 100-meter dash in

Logan Kelley gave the Trojans a point-boost by finishing first in the pole vault, while Evan Shiel and Jackson Colbrunn placed third in javelin and fourth in high jump, respectively. As Grijalva prepares to continue his basketball career at Benedictine Univer-
sity Mesa next season, he can’t help but reflect on what his last year at Valley Christian meant to him. “It means a lot to me,” Grijalva said. “I feel like I did something that kids can look back on and strive to become better than. I want them to think, ‘he put in that hard work to get two, I want to put in the hard work to get three.’ “I think it’s going to be the start of something new at Valley.”

Voodoo Daddy’s brings New Orleans to EV GET OUT STAFF
R
on Lynch is no stranger to the restaurant scene. Nearly 15 years ago, he acquired the intellectual rights to the Tilted Kilt concept and helped launched 100 restaurants in six years. In his 25 years in the industry, he also has opened more than 100 Schlotzsky’s restaurants in Arizona and other states. This week, the Tempe entrepreneur will launch a new restaurant that brings a taste of New Orleans to the East Valley. VooDoo Daddy’s Steam Kitchen will hold a grand opening Thursday, May 16, at 1325 W. Elliot Road, Tempe, with a menu that features jambalaya, gumbo, red beans and rice and po’boys. “The recipe for a great restaurant is incredible food and drinks, a perfect location and rich atmosphere,” said Lynch. “We are excited about our location and have really put a lot of work into this menu,” a spokeswoman added. “If there’s one thing to know about Cajun food it’s
Voodoo Daddy’s on Elliot Road between Hardy and Priest roads, Tempe, promises authentic New Orleans cuisine such as po’ boys, jambalaya and gumbo. Longtime Tempe restaurateur Ron Lynch says he’s proud of the new dining concept, which has its grand opening this week. (Special to the Tribune)
that the dishes have to be just right. Our patio will be a place for families to people watch, sip some custom blended ice teas, porch wines, nitro cold brew coffee or a craft beer and enjoy a nice bowl of gumbo or jambalaya.”
A portion of the proceeds from the grand opening day sales will go to the Tempe Diablos, a nonprofit that last year alone donated over $900,000 to area charities. The fast-casual restaurant sits in the
Costco Plaza Center on the south side of Elliot Road between Priest and Hardy Drives. T h e 3,150-squarefoot restaurant includes an expansive corner patio that surrounds the exterior with lush trees, black and white striped umbrellas and red seating. Bright yellow paint adorns the entrance with the restaurant’s name written in bold red lettering on the outside. Brightly colored murals decorate the interior with images of late-night jazz players dancing on piano keys. The restaurant will be open 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. Sunday through Thursday and 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. Friday and Saturday. Information: voodoodaddy.com.
MVPita menu reflects recipes of owners’ mom BY CHRISTINA FUOCO-KARASINSKI

S
iblings Christian Warde and Michelle Warde are paying tribute to their mom the best way they know how: through food. MVPita — at the southwestern corner of Power and Brown roads in northeast Mesa — serves fresh Mediterranean food like salads, hummus and, of course, pitas, using their mother’s recipes. “Our mom has always wanted to own a restaurant,” Christian said. “This is authentic Lebanese cuisine all from our mom’s recipes.” Their mother, Tania Warde, still resides in Illinois, from where the siblings moved three years ago. “She’s trying to move out here,” Christian said. “We just want to set this up and get everybody on their feet. Tears come to her eyes when we talk about her res-

taurant. “See, our mom was the main person in the kitchen at home. My favorite part was the dolmas.” Dolmas have ingredients like meat and spiced rice wrapped in vine or cabbage leaves. “She used to stuff them with meat, rice
and spice,” Christian said. “Over here, they’re vegetarian style. It was my favorite thing growing up. Everybody loves to cook and eat in our family. Unfortunately, we opened the restaurant away from the family.” One of MVPita’s top sellers is the gyro pita, a shaved mixture of lamb and beef
cooked on a rotisserie ($6.49). “Everything is good here,” Christian quickly added. “Customers can pick multiple proteins instead of just one. It’s tough on the kitchen, but the kitchen is hard working and we like to work together to knock out orders.” Christian and Michelle are 28 and 24, respectively. Christian refers to them as a “young family who’s looking to strive.” “We thought if the food was good, the people would come,” he said. “That’s how we looked at it. We started a new chapter in life moving to Arizona.” The food at MVPita isn’t just about Lebanese food. Its cheeseburger — a burger topped with gyro meat, both marinated in-house — has won numerous awards. But Lebanese food is the star, he said. “We have gyros for $3.99 Mondays and Tuesdays, which is a sweet deal for people trying to save money,” he said. “We’re trying to become the $5 gyro spot every day. Our prices are probably the best prices in town. They’re very reasonable. You get a lot of bang for fresh, quality food.”
