AZ Forward 2018 Environmental Excellence Awards

Crescordia Awards 2018

Looks like you can tell what foamed to the top for The Governor's Award in this year's version of the Arizona Forward's EEA held last week on October 6,2018. Take a look at the image - that type of beer is usually called an IPA (Indian Pale Ale) ....note there's no "Indian"
Instead take a close look at the glass - it's marked Goldwater, a nice golden-brown when it's brewed from human wastewater, that of course has been 'purified'.
At 5.7% that packs a lot of alcohol content!

Believe it - or not - The City of Mesa managed to snag two mentions in the Parks & Trail awards section ... a runner-up mention for the $12,000,000 in taxpayer money spent  for Pioneer Park and a mention for  4-mile bike trail segment that fills in a gap in a program started first in Phoenix.

Mesa Mayor Giles wants you to hear about the city's EEA awards and mentions when  he badgered Beth Huntig, head of the city's Engineering Department, to "brag about" and "brag about it just a little" at the Thu 11 October Mesa City Council Study Session.
Giles plans to stage an award ceremony at the Monday Oct 15th City Council Meeting at 5:45 pm
