Dear Sahuaro District Residents,
Over the last week, I attended two award luncheons. The first was to award Sergeant Jeff Turney, Glendale Police Department, for his distinguished service to the community by the Arizona Black Law Enforcement Employees (ABLE) organization. The second
was to honor Diane McCarthy, named West Valley Women 2019 Woman of the Year.

Last Shred-It Event For 2019!
Saturday, October 5, 2019
Glendale Adult Center
5970 W. Brown St.
Six (6) Bankers Box Limit per Household
Due to demand, event may conclude if trucks are full
Important information below is from the GLENDALE POLICE DEPARTMENT COMMUNITY ACTION TEAMS (CAT):
Please, Please, Please, if your shred boxes have been sitting for a long period of time, or not, please just look through them to be sure they have nothing dangerous that could take a shred grinder out! THIS HAS HAPPENED IN THE PAST. You do not have to remove paper clips or staples, CD's are OK.
In the past, we have found inside some of the dropped off boxes: purses, jewelry box, parachute, barbell, wine bottle, tarp, sets of keys and shoes. These items are not acceptable for the shred grinder!
We appreciate your patience in advance for the event. There will be 4 trucks and 4 lanes for drop off....Please stay in your vehicle, unlock your door/trunk and tell us where we need to go to get the shred materials. This is for SAFETY.
Also, the event may possibly begin early, before 8 a.m., if the trucks are set up and the event ends at 11 a.m. sharp. Our volunteers appreciate that the appropriate box sizes are used so we have no personal injuries during the event!
The CAT TEAM, in partnership with CPAAG (Citizens Police Academy Alumni Group), will be accepting donations for the shred event if you choose to contribute! Thank You!

Special Election by Mail
for City of Glendale Residents
A "Special Election by Mail" is scheduled for Glendale this Fall.
To participate, make sure that you are
registered to vote before October 7, 2019.
A "Special Election by Mail" is an election that requires voters, regardless of party registration, to mail or drop-off ballots ahead of the November 5, 2019, deadline.
Publicity pamphlets with voter and election information in both English and Spanish will be mailed to households
before the official ballot. After October 9, 2019, each registered voter will automatically receive a ballot through first-class mail. Ballots will include a return postage-paid envelope.
Because this election is being conducted by mail, no polling places will be provided. Voters are encouraged to return ballots by mail no later than October 29, 2019, to ensure that ballots are received ahead of the deadline. Ballots can also be dropped off at Glendale City Hall, 5850 West Glendale Avenue up until 5 p.m. on the November 5th deadline.

Along with trucks, there are special activities for children including a sand play area, a miniature roadway with toy vehicles called Tiny Tot Drivers and The Big Dig where children can try their hand at scooping sand with a contraption that works like a backhoe.
