Your MesaZona blogger was present during this session that started just after 07:30 a.m. with a short delay waiting for Mesa Channel 11 to get hooked up.
Until asked to stop taking photographs using flash by Steven Wright, Public Information & Communications Director for the City of Mesa, due to the reason that its use interfered with the real time recording by Channel 11, here's an image of some of the public who showed up for this early meeting, along with some supporters and presenters for items on this meeting's agenda. The room was packed this morning but there seemed to be a palpable "unease" in the room, with side conversations all around the councilmember horseshoe table.
In the right foreground is an assistant city clerk and recorder taking meeting notes.
One of the highlights for this study session was a presentation about ASU Downtown, or more correctly Item 2b-16-0441.
Just a quick review and a critique: at this point in time, four months after the plan was floated in the mayor's SOTC speech, there appears to be little of substance and sketchy details for anything moving forward in the designated site for what is being planned as an campus right in the same area as the City Plan Design Plan and encroaching with a 5-story building proposed in front of the Mesa Arts Center.
No idea from the two people who appeared with Director of Downtown Transformation Jeff McVay what programs or course offerings would be offered in the over 200,000 Sq Ft of 3-5 story buildings ---- gotta wonder if this is good governance and good urban planning
