Yes. Three minutes is fairly standard. Does the governing board have the trust of the majority of parents in the district?
I was also responsible for rallying 140 parents that successfully launched a campaign to restart sports and extra-curricular activities in May of 2020 when Zoom was the new classroom.
Academic performance has been declining along with enrollment and loss of quality teachers. Our leadership has ditched mastering the basics in favor of social activism.
We must mend this divide and put our students �irst and proactively honor the Parents Bill of Rights.
No. Diversity of thought is not addressed, and leadership does not listen to parents.

The project’s neighbors are set back 32 feet and 39 feet and Ortega felt the project’s proposed setback of 20 feet would be jarring to pedestrians.

Wilson said some foster students are not in high school equivalency programs but rather attend a traditional East Valley high school while also attendingWilsonEVIT.touted the work of the EVIT Governing Board in looking for innovative pathways to support the community.Also, Wilson thanked the work of state Reps. Steve Kaiser, Michelle Udall, and Rusty Bowers in helping to allocate the funds.
He also pointed out the building’s step-backs on the top the floors are greater than what the city requires in order to allow for a view down the street.Councilwoman Linda Milhaven took
EVIT plans residence hall for foster youth
“It’s becoming more and more necessary as the years go by and our population ages,” Littlefield said. “I want to allow our citizens to stay as independent as possible, to live near their family and their friends and maintain their quality of life.”

EVIT’s program will help provide foster youth with more stability, consistency and opportunities as they transition into adulthood, Wilson said.
In 2021, EVIT started a foster care program that allows youth who are getting ready to transition out of foster care to take an EVIT program while they finish their GED.
“It’s our belief that by having those individuals in a safe living space… we begin leaning into being able to truly change their life,” he said in an interview.Wilson said the school still is working on construction plans, but the residence would hold 64 beds and possibly eight shared-living areas similar to most modern university dormitories.
hanks for a $10 million item in the current state budget, the East Valley Institute of Technology hopes to open a residence hall for foster teens on its downtown Mesa campus by the 2023-24 school year.
Some other ideas Wilson said they will look at including utilizing the current training and facility space to create amenities such as a grass field or basketball courts for extracurricular activities.“Whatwe’re wanting to be mindful of is that we’re funded by our taxpayers,” Wilson said.

the rules,” Berry said. “This wasn’t an attempt to do something different or unusual or to ask for an amended development standard.”
Wilson, EVIT superintendent for the past four years, said his inspiration for the residency hall came from visiting a similar facility in Orange, California.
In addition to enrolling in EVIT’s adult career training programs, the students will receive social, emotional and mental health support services and learn life skills such as financial planning and nutrition.

EVIT Superintendent Dr. Chad Wilson said this is just the first step in changing the lives of foster youth by giving them not only a place to live but also a place where they can learn a trade and earn certification in it by the time they age out of the system.
“We had DRB, which I happened to chair, in June that approved the project. Planning (commission) was in August. This goes through a really, really long process so it’s kind of disappointing after we’ve had every opportunity to give feedback to a project that at the 11th hour from the dais we try to redesign projects. I wish you had brought this up sooner, mayor.”
While the state allocation will fund construction, EVIT will have to pay for the residency’s operation.
exception to Ortega’s request.
Caputi echoed that sentiment.
“It’s our belief that at EVIT, we change lives,” Wilson said. “That we change lives by loving our students and serving our communities.”
While participating in career and technical education programs on EVIT’s campus, resident foster youth would rely on the Paul Revere Academy, an offshoot of Heritage Academy, for traditional high school classes on the same campus. The charter high will give preferential placement to fosterWilsonyouth.said this will enable students to acquire high school diploma, a trade certification and/or dual-enrollment credits for community college.
State officials reported that in the 2021-22 fiscal year, 841 teens aged out of the state foster care system.
Councilwoman Kathy Littlefield said she agreed with the mayor but she was willing to overlook the setback issue because senior living is needed so badly in south Scottsdale.
Based on a Councilwoman Solange Whitehead’s questioning, Berry noted the project will use a number of techniques like low-flow toilets and showers instead of baths to reduce water use by 35%.
“This is a space that we want these individuals to be able to live in and to grow and thrive in – and exit from with a better footing underneath them to go out into our communities and be productive,” he said.
“That anchor has allowed us to lean into space that is good for students, is good for our communities and is good for the state,” Wilson said.
“These projects go through an awful long process,” Milhaven said. “We get P&Z email that’s open to the public that tells us when a case is filed. Applicants call us and show us their project, sometimes even before they file the application. In fact, the mayor said he met with this team six months ago.
Berry also pointed out that the restaurants that are considering moving into the building’s ground floor prefer a 20 ft. setback. The building’s neighbors have greater setbacks because they are residential and the idea was to move them back from road noise.
EVIT currently works with some foster care organizations, including Foster360 and Hope & A Future, but the school hasn’t begun to seek out partnerships for the residence hall yet.

Whitehead agreed with Carter.
“Now, I do agree we really need strong, robust input from our community because this is a huge community asset. Everybody has a part in it; everybody has been paying sales tax.

PRESERVE from front
“I am in favor of asking citizens for permission to use the interest we can earn from that invested balance for maintenance of the Preserve lands. I would also favor the question to include asking citizens if they would like to include the maintenance of the greenbelt land so it too, could have a dedicated income source for needed on-going maintenance.”

the“ThePreserve.citizen’s committee may recommend land acquisition,” she said. “They may recommend some specific acres. It could be in the south, it could be a new park in the south or some key acres in the Preserve, or they may not.
Janik said she had the same concern when the members of the General Plan 2035 Committee were selected because she feared some appointees would have undue influence on the panel. But, she added, that was exactly why Council took over appointing members, she said.
“I know that there are some who think that we need to buy more land,” Milhaven said. “I think we’ve spent a billion dollars on thirty thousand acres. I think we can be very proud of that. I think we have more urgent community needs or other community needs beyond buying more land.

“Voters, not the city council, should decide,” Whitehead said. “The McDowell Sonoran Preserve and the Indian Bend Wash Greenbelt were created at the ballot box and every major decision since has been decided by voters.”
“We want to maximize the voters’ ability to pick and choose what they want,” Whitehead said.
She would ultimately like to put two questions on the ballot in the future, one related to land acquisition and one regarding maintenance. The latter would include public safety in the Preserve.
However, Millhaven is opposed to diverting any tax extension for the acquisition of more land.

He noted that education is one of the Conservancy’s core goals and that it has served 5,500 “Pre-COVID,students.ourPreserve third grade student surveys showed us that nearly 75% of the students have never been to the natural desert and after coming through the Conservancy’s program in the Preserve, over 99% of them said they were more likely to help protect it in the future,” Owen said.

Betty Janik said during the meeting that she understood Milhaven’s point of view.
Pamela Carter and Barry Graham, the two candidates facing off Nov. 8 for the last available seat on council, had different answers to the question.

“That’s because after the Bank Rolls were loaded with 15 U.S. Gov’t issued Silver Walking Liberties, each verified to meet a minimum collector grade of very good or above, the dates and mint marks of the Silver Walking Liberty Half Dollars found inside the Bank Rolls have never been searched. But, we do know that some of these coins date clear back to the early 1900’s and are 90% pure silver so Arizona residents who get their hands on them will be glad they did,” Lynne went on to say.
TO CLAIM THE ARIZONA STATE BANK ROLLS CALL: 1-800-260-7945 EXT. WHH1049
You see, the U.S. Gov’t stopped minting these Silver Walking Liberty Half Dollars in 1947 and there can never be any more which moves them into the collectible coin status.
Arizona residents get first dibs on Sealed Bank Rolls loaded with U.S. Gov’t issued Silver Walking Liberties dating back to the early 1900’s some worth up to 100 times their face value starting at 7:30 am today issued Silver Walking Liberty Half Dollars some dating back to the early 1900’s so everyone who wants them better hurry.
Yes. These U.S. Gov’t issued Silver Walking Liberties were minted in the early 1900’s and will never be minted again. That makes them collectible. The vast majority of half dollars minted after 1970 have no silver content at all and these Walking Liberty Half Dollars were one of the last silver coins minted for circulation. So there’s no telling how much they could be worth in collector value someday.

AZ residents scramble to get State Silver Bank Rolls
ARIZONA - Once Arizona residents got wind that Arizona State Bank Rolls filled with Silver Walking Liberties dating back to the early 1900’s were being handed over, there was a mad dash to get them. That’s because they are the only Bank Rolls known to exist with the exclusive State Restricted Design.
And here’s the best part. The rolls are unsearched so there’s no telling how much they could be worth in collector value.
But you better hurry because these Arizona State Bank Rolls themselves have been marked State Restricted by price which means the state minimum set by National Mint and Treasury is restricted to Arizona residents and non-state residents must pay full price if any remain.
How much are State worth:SilverWalkingRestrictedLibertyBankRolls
Arizona residents are authorized to claim up to the limit of 4 Arizona State Walking Liberty Silver Bank Rolls by calling the State Toll Free Hotline at 1-800-260 7945 Ext.

That’s a full Bank Roll containing 15 Silver Walking Liberties from the early 1900’s some worth up to 100 times their face value for just the state minimum set by the National Mint and Treasury of just $39 per Silver Walking Liberty, which is just $585 for the full Bank Rolls and that’s a real steal because non state residents must pay $1,770 for each Arizona State Walking Liberty Silver Bank Roll if any remain.
STATE MINIMUM: Of just $39per coin set by National Mint and Treasury
It’s impossible to say, but some of these U.S Gov’t issued Walking Liberty Half Dollars date back to the early 1900’s and there are 15 in each Bank Roll so you better hurry if you want to get your hands on them. Collector values always fluctuate and there are never any guarantees. But we do know Walking Liberties are collectible so anyone lucky enough to get their hands on these Silver Bank Rolls should hold onto them because there’s no telling how much they could be worth in collector value someday.

unclear, however, how much discretion Kavanagh will have to find something that passes legal muster.
CITY NEWSSCOTTSDALE PROGRESS | WWW.SCOTTSDALE.ORG | SEPTEMBER 18, 2022 17
What that leaves as an option for Kavanagh is recrafting the measure when legislators convene in January. But he said the form that new version will take will depend on Tuchi’s final order – and what the judge says he finds legally unacceptable in HBIt2319.remains
Kavanagh, a former police officer, said he doubts that the judge will conclude the law gives too much discretion to police on when and how to enforce it.
The challenge to HB 2319 was filed by a coalition of media organizations as well as the American Civil Liberties Union of Arizona.
Scottsdale lawmaker �inds no one to defend his law
“HBTuchi.2319 prohibits only video recording and does not address audio recordings or photographs taken from the same distance or device,’’ the judge pointed out. “Nor does it address persons who may be using their mobile phones for other purposes, such as texting.’’Whatthat shows, Tuchi said, is that “the law’s purpose is not to prevent interference with law enforcement, but to prevent recording.’’Kavanagh said that’s easy enough to fix.
Attorney General Mark Brnovich, named as a defendant in the lawsuit, did not show up at a hearing last week.
“They looked to see if they could get some other groups,’’ he said, like those involved in legal matters. “But nobody was buying.’’
Tuchi, in issuing the preliminary injunction last week, said he believes that individuals have a First Amendment right to record police activity. And he dismissed Kavanagh’s claim, made during legislative debate, that HB 2319 is necessary to prevent interference with or distractions of law
So, U.S. District Court Judge John Tuchi issued a preliminary injunction to bar the law from taking effect on Sept. 24 as scheduled. And he set a Friday deadline to see if legislative leaders are willing to take up the fight that Brnovich would not.
“If it’s only singling out people videotaping, then I could expand it,’’ he said of the scope of the law, barring anyone from being in that 8-foot bubble.
“Arizonaenforcement.already has other laws on its books to prevent interference with police officers,’’ the judge wrote. “The court fails to see how the presence of a person recording a video near an officer interferes with the officer’s activities.’’
“From two feet, you can’t even capture the whole scene,’’ Kavanagh said.
He originally had proposed a 15-foot buffer.“But I went to eight feet because the U.S. Supreme Court said, with respect to First Amendment rights, keeping abortion protesters at eight feet from clinic entrances was constitutional,’’ Kavanagh said. “So I thought that same distance would easily apply here.’’
That, however, may not resolve the legal
Absent any effort to defend the law, that clears the way for Tuchi to permanently enjoin enforcement, killing the law.
BY HOWARD FISCHER Capitol Media Services
issues that Tuchi has with the concept of keeping people away from police activity. He said restrictions on First Amendment rights can exist only if they “serve a compelling state interest, and only if they are “narrowly drawn to achieve that end.’’ And he said HB 2319 is neither.
But distance isn’t the only concern raised by
“There’s just as much, if not more discretion on ‘stop, question and frisk,’ ‘’ he said. That allows a police officer to stop and question a person when the officer has reasonable suspicion someone committed, is committing, or is committing a crime. It also allows an officer who believes someone has a weapon to pat down an individual.Thelegality of that process was upheld in 1968 by the U.S. Supreme Court.
The measure made it a crime to record police activity within 8 feet.
“The Senate will not be pursuing an appeal,’’ Senate President Karen Fann said Wednesday.AndHouse Speaker Rusty Bowers said he sees no reason to intercede. “There is a general feeling that the idea needs refining,’’ he said. “And I don’t think I am going to push any defense from the House point ofSoview.’’that leaves only Kavanagh, who crafted the measure and approached various organizations that represent police officers, believing they would have an interest in having the law take effect.
One option for Kavanagh could be changing the distance to allow people with cameras to get closer.
Rep. John Kavanagh told Capitol Media Services Wednesday he has been unable to find any organization willing to go to federal court to defend his legislation that would make it a crime to videotape police activity within eight feet and has been directed to stop. Violators are subject to 30 days in jail and a $500 fine.
The restrictions on videotaping police are not going to take effect, at least not this year.
“What are you going have, a shot of the person’s shoulder?’’ he continued. “What good is that?’’
He said, though, collapsing the ban to a lesser distance makes no sense.
“No takers,’’ Kavanagh said.

he flood gates opened. Arizona legalized sports betting for the first time outside tribal gaming on Sept. 9, 2021. For many, the amount of money generated has been jawdropping.Inthe state’s full year with legal sports and fantasy gambling, over $5 billion has been wagered. By most accounts, Arizona has more than met expectations in its inaugural stage.
Part of what has made Arizona so successful in just one year is the state’s approach to sports betting, said B Global managing partner Brendan Bussmann.
A large reason for this success is the mobile betting market.
Legalized gambling reaps billions in Arizona
Arizona could also make even more money by giving additional licenses to more tribes as they are already the major contributor for the state.

After Gov. Doug Ducey signed into law companion bills from the Senate and the House, Arizona issued 20 sports betting licenses, 10 to Native American tribes and 10 to professional sports teams.

Additionally, Arizona’s tax rate on sports gambling is 8 percent for retail revenue and 10 percent for online.
“Tribal gaming, for example, contributes over $100 million to the state,” Hartgraves said. “Sports betting and fantasy sports is not immediately at thatOverlevel.”$100 million is an understatement. From July of 2021 to June 30, tribal gaming contributed $123 million.Rather than resting on its laurels with the money generated from the tribal side, some observers think Arizona should do what it can to maximize the profits even more.
“Arizona offered a unique model and sort of advanced on two fronts,” Bussmann said. “One that tribes would be considered on a commercial level to go statewide.“Andthen introduced the ability for teams to have direct access to licenses in a combined format. Looking at it now a year later, I think the market continues to be a success.”
This past March, the most popular month for sports betting, bettors wagered over $690 million in Arizona. Of that, only $3.3 million came from retail gambling.Somestates, like Nevada, have a
Anna said, “The more we saw, so many young families from everywhere, we knew that this was our future and the place we wanted to be. We are really happy here.”
While retail sports betting reaps a few million dollars wagered every year, it does not even come close to the amount wagered through mobile.
“I’m a widow now and the only original homeowner still here,” she said. One lasting memory from the early years is from October 1975.
“We definitely intend to stay as long as possible,” he said.
Limiting it to 10 licenses not only takes away potential cash for the state general fund but also limits the opportunity for the tribes to maximize gamblingThenprofits.again, the tribes aren’t short on gambling money.
Hartgraves, a public information officer from the Arizona Department of Gaming, believes that legalized sports betting has been a positive contribution to the state.
She repeated some information already shared with the council, such as: on average, Scottsdale’s growth areas (the Air Park, Old Town and south Scottsdale) land surface temperatures are 6° F to 7° F higher than the rest of the city and census block groups with higher average incomes had lower temperatures. Land surface temperatures decreased about more than 1° F for each $10,000 increase in mean per capita per home.
“What really surprised me was how much cooler – 55 degrees is a lot. What this study gives us is that it took something that we knew and helped us quantify it, which is going to be helping us as we develop this heat mitigation plan.”
The plan has three recommendations: Increase tree canopy, particularly along frequently traveled pedestrian walkways and along the south and west facades of buildings.Reduce the land area of exposed dark asphalt, dark roofs and other hot sur-
“The challenge we always have and I always include in my newsletters is what’s causing the heat,” Councilwoman Solange Whitehead said. “It’s hot and getting hotter so what’s causing heat? That’s where I think there’s a big gap in knowledge.”

theHowever,meeting.Graham told the Progress, “Addressing heat-island effects, which are partially due to excessive development, is critical for the health of our residents – especially senior citizens with compromised immune systems. There are common-sense solutions to reduce uncomfortable and unhealthy heat retention, like adding trees and shade structures, redesigning heat-trapping surfaces, and discouraging unused emissions.”
Attempts to reach Carter for comment wereMcNeillyunsuccessful.alsogave the council an update on the creation of the city’s sustainability plan.
The point is, Scottsdale is getting hotter, and that has real consequences.
That was the message Scottsdale Sustainability Director Lisa McNeilly had for City Council during its meeting Sept. 13.
• These are fleshed out with topics and specific recommendations on how to achieve goals, such as replacing the city fleet of vehicles and buses with electric vehicles.
• Equitable community – builds just, livable and thriving communities reflecting the character of Scottsdale.
• Nature-based – protects and enhances city and natural environment by conserving resources, balancing land use and open space.
The reason is there’s less asphalt and more trees in more affluent communities.
“We’re having fewer heat warning days than we did in 2020 but our night time low for June and July was 84.3° F, it averaged that, which is warmer than any year since 1950,” McNeilly said. “We know temperatures in Arizona have already gone up 2.5 percent since 1900.”
She opened her presentation with a statement of how bad the problem is.
• Low emissions and climate action – reduces greenhouse gas and other environmentally harmful air emissions.
• Circular systems – supports models of production and consumption that support reducing, recycling, repairing and re-purposing products and materials.
McNeilly gave a recap of the city’s heat mitigation plan, which is still being formalized.Shestated radiant heat (the heat you feel around you) drops by 55° F under a mature, fully-leafed tree.

has a way to go in reducing urban heat, according to some residents.
The heat is on Scottsdale – literally – Council told
Of 56 responses to a survey on the city’s urban heat plan, 88% say it is “very important” for the city to take action to reduce urban heat. However, only 48% say Scottsdale is doing an “average” job or better in creating cool and comfortable spaces for pedestrians to go.
“I wanted to start not with the problem, but with our success,” McNeilly said. “This may be the city’s first sustainability plan, but I am not the first sustainability officer here. There’s been a lot of work. It’s a special place that has consistently championed environmental stewardship while maintaining a high quality of life for our residents, our visitors, our businesses.”
“What else causes heat? Internal combustion engines, cars,” Whitehead continued. “That’s a big source of heat in our cities. Concrete … the type of materials we use to build buildings reduces urban heat and reduces utility bills. I think people say, ‘Oh it’s hot, lets plant a tree,” but I think we really have to educate people as to what is causing the heat. That’s where we need to make some changes.”

“It’ssaid.not necessarily a timing issue in terms of how long it takes, it’s a timing issue in terms of when can you bring this legislation up. A lot of the states that we were working in for legislation in 2022 didn’t have success because it was a political year. That made it complicated.”
Community
But Arizona has no such requirement and thus gets a significant proportion from online bets.
In election years, getting legislation through is understandably more difficult, which is why Iden believes that Arizona’s success can pave the way for more states to legalize sports betting in 2023.“Ienvision we’re gonna have a lot of success in 2023,” Iden said, “and I think it’s gonna be a very busy year for gaming legislation across the country.”
With all of the success from Arizona’s first year of legalized sports betting, it’s a wonder it took so long to become legal in the first place. On the surface there doesn’t seem to be much downside – outside of the challenging efforts to legalize gambling.

Winkler and Stanford are still seeking more cars that illustrate the art of aerodynamics.“Wewant to have cars that people haven’t seen before,” Stanford said. “When you’re charging people to come to an event like that, you have to have something more to offer than what can be seen at every car and coffee event on Saturday. That’s a tall order in Scottsdale because we have the most exotic cars of anybody in the U.S.”
“In 2017, our last field, we had cars from 21 states and four countries,” Stanford said. “We had cars from as far away as Venezuela and nationally as far away as cars from Florida and New York that were transported cross country.”
The biggest challenge for Winkler and Stanford was finding a large venue that had grass and that wasn’t a golf course.
“In 2018, the hotel was purchased and the new owners decided they liked swimming pools more than the green grass that was out in the courtyards,” said Arizona Concours d’Elegance cofounder and director Ed Winkler with a laugh. “They converted that grass to other uses for the hotel, which meant we had to go and find a new home.”
“The only green grass in Arizona is generally used on golf courses and golf courses in January and at least in Arizona are pretty busy,” Winkler said.

Although she will miss her animals, her focus will be solely on aiding as many people as she can by teaching them healthy coping mechanisms.
Although Schaad has made a name for herself locally through her equine therapy programs for patients with ALS as well as first responders and anyone looking for therapeutic riding, her background lies within trauma therapy.
“My first love was horses. I got to learn how to build a safe and healthy relationship with a horse that’s transferable to people and being able to tie those relationship skills and those regulatory skills transfers into being a therapist to balance out and create a safe environment of learning and openness.”
Before leaving, Schaad also met a girl online who was a huge fan of hip-hop artist Lizzo’s clothing line and music.

Soon Le went on a quest around the world to �ind the best cheeses and other products that she hoped to feature at a restaurant of hers someday.

The growth of women’s sports has also led to increased college recruitment and club volleyball participation as studentathletes balance the two along with their high school seasons.
In the 50 years since, McKenzie has seen women’s sports grow as a result of an increase in budgets and opportunities.

With a senior-heavy roster last season, McKenzie had to learn how to accommodate her players without changing her team rules. The coach still stands by not starting a player who misses practice, but now she will often cancel a Friday practice so seniors have more time for weekend college visits.
“She shares her love of the game with our girls and keeps the girls accountable,” Murphy said. “She’s helping not just make our daughters into better volleyball players, but she’s making them into better people and better citizens.”
“Before every game, she would give us a poem that she would write,” Murphy said. “It was a poem about our opponents and what we were going to do to them. It also had a little gift with it. We were playing the (Shadow Mountain) Matadors, and she gave us little bells to put on our shoes so that when we were walking in school, it would remind us of what we had coming forward.”
Tammy Murphy first met McKenzie after moving from Wisconsin to Arizona as a senior in high school, thanks to an invite to a summer volleyball tournament.
She has attended clinics twice a year and still calls herself a strict disciplinarian.

Murphy’s experience with McKenzie is why her daughter, Kendal, followed in her footsteps to play for McKenzie at Horizon.
A lot has changed between Murphy’s and her daughter’s high school career.
After 42 years and an ever-changing sports culture, McKenzie is still commit-
ted to the game and coaching.
McKenzie will see college recruiters attend select tournaments and attend regular-season games if she has a talented team or players.
Former and current players certainly agree.“Coach has always been fair, (it) doesn’t matter if you’re a starter or a backup,” Murphy said. “
Horizon fell short in the 2020 quarterfinals but played with a chip on its shoulder last year, winning the 5A title. (Progress file photo)
If a player works hard and has a good attitude, McKenzie will vouch for her. Coaching at the same school for over 40 years means coaching lots of kids. It also means lots of familiar faces and familiar last names.
