Speed “humps” on Hermosa Vist Dr to be Removed…

Found this in at AZCentral.com today…

“The six sets of experimental speed humps were supposed to have been in place on Hermosa Vista Drive between Gilbert and Lindsay roads for six months as the city evaluated results. They’re being yanked after six weeks in the wake of a survey that found them vastly unpopular with most drivers in the neighborhood. ” (Click here for full article)

Did You Know These Trees?

The Western Area Power Administration has taken out about a dozen trees along the “Cactus Walk” in East Mesa, citing thier proximity to the Federally maintained high voltage transmission system as the reason.  Do you use this trail?  Did this have to be done this way?  Is the damage to the trail significant?  I invite your comments.

Are you kidding me?

Catherine Reagor of AZCentral.com wrote what I’m sure she would consider an “article” on Arizona Real Estate with the sensational headline “Arizona tops the list for prime ARM foreclosure increases.”  If it were any shorter I could have printed it out on a cocktail napkin.  She sites a report by HSH & Associates but doesn’t give a link to it.  After Googling HSH I found their site, but couldn’t find the report, or even a mention of a report.

I guess the point of this rant is that “journalists” like this who are afraid to give you the …
