Dear Friends,
The heat is on! After a beautiful May, filled with
weeks to be enjoyed outside, we find
ourselves seeking refuge in air-conditioned
havens. As the pavement heats up, join me in reflecting on this
past month, preferably from inside.
Phoenix Mayor Greg Stanton, District 3 Councilwoman Debra
Stark and I continued the yearly tradition of brewing the Non-Partisan Lager at
North Mountain Brewing Company in Sunnyslope. Be sure to stop in later
this month and have a taste. It’s not quite ready just yet. Good
things take time. I’ve included picture highlights below.
The City of Phoenix celebrated another milestone this month.
Phoenix officially re-took the spot of 5th largest city in the U.S., bumping Philadelphia back down to 6th. I am proud to serve such a flourishing
community that embraces growth. Click HERE to read more about Phoenix’s
continued growth.
The “Dog Days of Summer” are a great time to dive into a
book and also join the Maricopa County Summer Reading Challenge.
I’ve developed a District 3 badge and am in competition with my fellow
Supervisors. The District badge with the most completions wins bragging
rights for the next year. The challenge is geared toward our 7 to 10 year
old children, but I challenge you to engage in some mental exercise as well
and enjoy a summer book.
Learn where the phrase "Dog Days of Summer" originated in this National Geographic article.
All my best, Bill Gates

Constituents packed the house for our last County Coffee before District 3 takes a summer break. Arizona State Representative Heather Carter (LD 15) and Maricopa County Attorney Bill Montgomery drew a great crowd for the June 1st breakfast.
