Iris Gutierrez is our new field rep for Third District Supervisor Dawn Rowe. She will attend the meeting, introduce herself, and answer questions. She replaces Steve Reyes, who recently retired. Ms. Gutierrez formerly worked for State Assemblyman Tom Lackey, District 34.
Randy Harrison, Wonder Valley’s primary UPS driver, is retiring. Ms. Gutierrez will honor him with a Certificate of Commendation. Please join us in honoring Randy for 14 years of delivering packages to, and checking in on, Wonder Valley residents.
There are cards at the WVCC (ask Jim), and at The Palms (ask the bartender), on which you can leave a parting message to Randy. We will give him these at the meeting.
We’ve made some progress on both the Dark Skies and Behavioral Health agenda items and look forward to sharing these with you at the meeting.
