Yucca District E-News for...
October 10, 2019
Hello Everyone,
This week, along with Mayor Weiers and Councilmembers Tolmachoff and Aldama, I attended the funeral mass for Bill Bidwill Sr. On the occasions I met with Mr. Bidwill Senior he was always gracious and a truly gentle soul. He was a silent benefactor to many Valley organizations. My condolences go to the Bidwill family for their great loss.
This week I am raffling off tickets for the Arizona Fall Baseball League. This league features top prospects from all 30 Major Legue teams. Please follow the directions below to enter.
Sincerely,

Intersection Closure!
The intersection of the Northern Parkway and Dysart Road will be closed beginning at 9:00 p.m., Friday, October 18 through 5:00 a.m., Monday, October 20.
The contractor has just about completed the east half of the intersection and needs to complete some paving, striping and traffic signal work before traffic can be switched over to the new surface.
The closures will begin a mile out in each direction. All business access and driveways will be maintained up to the closure except to the west - all eastbound traffic on the Northern Parkway will be detoured at Litchfield Road.
***Please note: The original dates for this project were October 11th through October 14th but due to recent rains, the project has been delayed.
