Waveyard coming to Mesa!

I’m getting started on this post just a little late, but in case you didn’t know, Mesa residents voted to approve the Waveyard complex. The location will be in the SE corner where the Loop 202 (Red Mountain) & Loop 101 meet:

The official site during the Pre-voting was www.YesOnWaveyard.com and is still up and has really good information regarding water reclamation, conservation and other measures that will be taken to reduce waste. The official site is www.waveyard.com.

Found this post from SurferVillage.com that was really positive about the waveyard project.

Park activities will include surfing, kayaking, rafting, snorkeling, a beach, scuba diving, wakeboarding, rock climbing and canyoneering. Also associated will be many shops and eateries.

Not everyone is happy. This post from Treehugger.com has a different set of numbers for water usage than the official site does. And this gal is cranked about the double standard - cities requesting residents conserve water while allowing, nay inviting and funding an entire water oriented amusement to use all of the water we saved.

If the Waveyard people’s numbers work out, they will use less water annually than the golf course that is there now. I’m not for wasting, but I’m also a lousy golfer.
