Asante to get next city library

Construction under way on $5.1M facility; January 2020 opening planned

By Matt Roy

INDEPENDENT NEWSMEDIA

The community’s newest library will break ground soon, headed for completion by the end of the year in one of the its newest neighborhoods. City leaders got an update on the development at the City Council work session Feb. 19 at City Hall, 16000 N. Civic Center Plaza.

Construction will commence in April on the Asante Branch Library, a $5.1 million project funded primarily by developers’ fees, which will be situated in Asante Community Park

near 167th and Grand avenues.

Community & Recreation Services Director Donna Miller explained the accelerated pace of the project, which city leaders approved last year. “The library was discussed during the FY19 budget process,” Ms. Miller recalled. “We knew it was going to be a really aggressive schedule … we prepared the procurement side of it and got everything lined up with our construction so that we could come back to council in August.”

To use development impact fees – which represent $ 4,651,900 of the $10,000-square-foot project’s $5,101,900 price tag – construction of the building shell must be completed before the end of this year.

Tuesday, February 26, 2019

Were there any big items at your meeting today?

I wish that the council members would take minutes of their meetings so that I could put the minutes on my web site.

Surprise operates under a council-manager form of government. Under this system the city council determines city policy, passes ordinances, and approves a balanced budget each year.

The city manager is responsible for carrying out the council-created policies, and directing the day-to-day operations of city government. The manager reports directly to the city council, and is subject to council performance reviews. The city manager is also responsible for drafting a balanced budget for council review and approval each year.

Smoke alarmS are a key part of a home fire escape plan. When there is a fire, smoke spreads fast. Working smoke alarms give you early warning so you can get outside quickly.
SAFETY TIPS KKK Install smoke alarms inside and outside each bedroom and sleeping area. Install alarms on every level of the home. Install alarms in the basement. KKK Large homes may need extra smoke alarms. KKK It is best to use interconnected smoke alarms. When one smoke alarm sounds they all sound. KKK Test all smoke alarms at least once a month. Press the test button to be sure the alarm is working. KKK There are two kinds of alarms. Ionization smoke alarms are quicker to warn about flaming fires. Photoelectric alarms are quicker to warn about smoldering fires. It is best to use both types of alarms in the home. KKK A smoke alarm should be on the ceiling or high on a wall. Keep smoke alarms away from the kitchen to reduce false alarms. They should be at least 10 feet (3 meters) from the stove. KKK People who are hard-of-hearing or deaf can use special alarms. These alarms have strobe lights and bed shakers. KKK Replace all smoke alarms when they are 10 years old.

There was a courageous citizen that appeared before the city council on an open hearing agenda and was told that the council could not respond to her question. Because the council said they couldn’t respond, you would be surprised how many citizens of Surprise believe this too be true, which it is not.

LAND USE

Design firm to deliver master plan this summer; public outreach continues

By Matt Roy

INDEPENDENT NEWSMEDIA

Momentum appears to be growing in the decades-long effort to develop the empty land, which surrounds the city’s civic core.

After years of legal wrangling and contentious debate over the property’s future, landowners and city leaders are finally collaborating to create a master plan for the roughly square mile of dormant desert bounded by Bell and Greenway roads, Litchfield Road and Bullard Avenue.

Scott Phillips, vice president of Scottsdale- based Carefree Partners, confi rmed his group has selected a design firm to oversee the development of a master plan for the more than 500 remaining acres awaiting development at the City Center.

He said requests for proposals had been issued to seven top firms last fall and, after considering responses from five of those, the landowners selected

Summary of Arizona Gun Laws

Arizona is a shall-issue state with concealed weapons permits issued at the state level by the Department of Public Safety. 

There is no permit, background check or firearms registration required when buying a handgun from a private individual. A purchaser must be at least 18 years old to buy a gun from a private individual. The minimum age to purchase a handgun from a federally licensed dealer is 21.

Open carry is legal in Arizona for any person who is at least 18 years old and who can legally possess a firearm. Some areas are off-limits, including schools and liquor stores that have posted “no weapons” signs.  

Anyone at least 21 years old may conceal carry a firearm without a permit. Arizona Concealed Weapons Permits (CWP) are issued to residents and non-residents and require a firearms training course that has been state-approved. 

Arizona is a Castle Doctrine state. There is no duty to retreat before defending yourself in Arizona. If you’re not engaged in an unlawful act and you’re in a place you have a right to be, you don’t have to retreat when someone threatens or assaults you. Nevertheless, you can only use proportional and reasonable force when immediately necessary to protect against potentially deadly force. Deadly force is not permitted to prevent theft or vandalism except when deadly force would otherwise be justified. There is no civil liability for justified conduct.

Why is the City seeking to purchase CCWC?

One of the City Council’s Strategic Plan Goals is to “Ensure sufficient water resources for current and future needs.” In order for the City’s Water Utility to meet that goal, it must continue to expand its access to more water and increase its water portfolio, particularly its access to Colorado River water delivered through the Central Arizona Project (“CAP”) canal system.

CCWC is a small water service company located in the northern part of Surprise’s future planning and water service area. In addition to its infrastructure and customer base, CCWC also has a sizable CAP allocation which, if acquired, would greatly grow the City’s ability to access more Colorado River water. Having greater access to renewable water supplies affords the City the ability to meet future demands and avoid shortfalls.

By Matt Roy, Independent Newsmedia May 15, 2018

Surprise voters last night approved city plans to purchase a water company from a neighboring community.

With 18,319 mail-in ballots cast, four-out-of-five participants in the May 15 municipal election supported a measure, which empowers Surprise City Council to move forward with negotiations to purchase Circle City Water Company.

According data presented by city staffers during a November 2017 presentation, the small water company currently serves only 168 customers in the rural community of Circle City, which lies 14 northwest of Surprise along U.S. 60.

The purchase will add 3,932 acre-feet per year to Surprise’s allocation of Colorado River surface water pumped from Central Arizona Project canals.
