Outstanding Support From Our Friends & Neighbors

We received so many emails & text messages from friends , neighbors, and readers, some of whom we don't even know. The support is too great not to share.

Following are some of the comments we received since the Az Star publicized our plight.

Thanks so much for writing.

*****************************************************************************************

Way to go! Your website/blog is the most informative news outlet in town. Thanks for all you do and for standing up to the mayor and the council. Let freedom ring!!!

I agree, it is ridiculous to pay any lawyer, when we have employees who are working as attorneys for us. A couple of friends tell me people are calling us "Horror Valley"....Ouch!

Art---keep up the good work.

So glad this ridiculous thing is behind you. When I read the article in the paper I just sat there with my mouth hanging open, thinking "What, what!" Hey, can I put on sign on my lawn or will the town hire outside council to see if I have to register as a Political Committee? What next! Anyway, congratulations and keep up the good work.

Art, way to go! with the AZ Daily Star. These people just never learn.

Way to go Art!! I love the comment about an unidentified citizen who objected to your blog, and Parrish says "the council had NO idea what was going on!! BIG BS!!!

I was delighted to read both articles in the Star, especially the editorial commentary. You can't buy publicity like that. It's nice to see the Town Council exposed as the bully it is. Perhaps this public exposure of their pursuit of a personal vendetta will help to unseat these feckless little tyrants. Congratulations! Keep up the good work.

Nice work. I read the editorial this morning. Keep up the superb work.

Good work, Art. Your stand will do the cause good.

Art - you have acted as the "goat" for O.V.'s greater good - I HOPE & PRAY! This story is all over the place - finally - and the attitudes of some of our elected officials is OUT IN THE OPEN.

We're glad you're getting publicity!!! It's high time the good word was spread!

It does not surprise me in the least that our local politicians would use our tax dollars to harass citizens who might not agree with their views. It is sad to see that your and our right to freedom of speech is being challenged by our town government.

Keep up the fight for honesty and openness in TOV regardless of one's political persuasions.

The nerve of them, harassing you. They're just showing their true sleaziness.Hang in there- we're behind you, watching your back!

Art - in my opinion, your recent difficulties with the TOV is the BEST thing that could have happened on the eve of our town council elections. What Bozo at town hall decided to create this media event to YOUR advantage?

YEAH!!!!!. Good for you.

Art-- keep working for better government by revealing the motives behind oro valley directives. the why, how and where of many issues are frequently hidden from public viewing because council members' interests conflict with community needs. don't be intimidated.

I should've mentioned that I liked the Star article about you. They were fair, and you came out smelling like a (wounded) rose. A good thing. I wouldn't vote for the "others" if they gave me a multi-million $ tax abatement!

WE WANT TO EXPRESS OUR APPRECIATION FOR YOUR CIVIC PARTICIPATION. HOPE YOUR ACTIONS BRING ABOUT SOME TRIMMING OF AN OVERGROWN AND SOMETIMES ARROGANT ORO VALLEY STAFF THAT WILL PREVENT A PROPERTY TAX AND REDUCTION OF SOME OF ORO VALLEY'S OTHER TAXES.

BRAVO! I’m so glad you stood up for yourself. In so doing, you championed the rights of all bloggers---and won!!
