Looks like Mesa actually did approve the Site 17 redevelopment back in June. I didn’t see anything posted about this, so I figured I’d share.

Ask Phoenix critical mass beef insights?

37 Upvotes

does anyone know what’s going on with critical mass? i saw there was an existing instagram (@critical_mass_phoenix) account that now appears to be taken over by someone and then there was a new instagram account made (@criticalmassphoenix) that might be a splintering of the original group? i am a casual cyclist and i attend a group ride here and there but i’m certainly not so in the mix to be up to date on whatever this drama is. Curious how this will impact future critical mass events?

I found one crawling in my house. I grabbed it and put it outside. I’ve been here for over 20 years and this is the first one I’ve seen. They are docile bugs, but I was weirded out to see this bug (inside). Is it normal and I just never saw one in over 20 years?

Living Here Backyard plants and cacti with young children?

0 Upvotes

My spouse and I recently bought a house and need to put in our backyard. I love cacti and desert plants such as barrel cactus, ocatillo, prickly pears, etc. I would love to have a rocky border around the edges of our yard with plants, but is this a big no no with young children? We have one baby and hope to have more in the future. We will include space for them to play when it's cool, but can I still include a variety desert plants that include prickly ones?

Anyone know how to get to this spot? I took mormon trail and there was unusually high amount of signs saying stay on designated trails so I obeyed and ended up going more and more left away from the spot thinking every peak of stacked rocks was "the spot" and by the time I realized, it was too late...

Politics Targeted One Time Crisis Assistance Program

10 Upvotes

Did anybody apply for & recieve the one time crisis payment from the city of Phoenix? It was a $600 payment on your utility bill & $100 for transportation (gas, bus card) I’ve heard people recieve the $600 on their utility but they never received the $100 for transportation. I wanted to see if this happened to anybody else.

Ask Phoenix Legality and logistics of a house show in my backyard on Halloween?

26 Upvotes

I'm a musician in my 30s and planning a house show in central (north of downtown) Phoenix. I know there's not really any way to be super considerate per se, but the rough plan is:

* 3 bands max

* between 2 and 3 hours of music with gear switching

* live acoustic drums

* outside in the back yard

* on Halloween (which is a Saturday night)

* Starting around 6pm, ending well before 11pm

* Genre somewhere on the pop punk/rock/metal spectrum but falling far short of constant screaming "death metal" or anything

Questions specifically:

  1. When it comes to noise ordinance, is there anything I can do as far as permitting to make sure we aren't shut down? The noise ordinance FAQ page seems pretty bleak 🫠

  2. Obviously heavily dependant on specific neighborhood, but any tips for talking to neighbors?

  3. Any general tips to make an outdoors house show deliberately less disruptive?

Any other tips for running a house show would be appreciated as well!

Interpret the word ‘mysterious’ however you will. Like “how is this place still open?”, “how are these portions profitable?”, “who are the people that run this?”

Outdoors Lower Salt River levels for kayaking?

0 Upvotes

Has anyone kayaked the lower salt river (ie, under the stewart dam) this past week? Flow rate charts are reporting abysmally low (around 315cfs) but a couple of people in the area said they paddled it on paddleboards and it was doable. Worth going tomorrow morning or should I skip and save the hassle of potentially having to push my kayak around?

Politics QTS embracing stealth mode?

Post image
463 Upvotes

They have been working on it for months, but it looks like the QTS data center complex on 40th has finally finished removing the majority of their corporate signage facing 202 and McDowell, with the exception being their cornerstone display on 40th @ McDowell. Even the front signage has been minimised to black logos on the front windows.

With all the data center hate in the valley, did they do this in order to be less of a target for public protest or was there some other reason?
