At the July 8 Council Study Session,a discussion regarding the Oro Valley Police Department Take-Home Vehicle Policy was on the agenda.
Council Member Al Kunisch leaves no doubt that he is a strong advocate of the police department, and consistently votes to give the police anything and everything they want.
That's well and good.
Where Kunisch crossed the line of professionalism was his nasty, uncalled for comment concerning the police take home vehicles.
Kunisch had this to say, referring to Town Manager David Andrews who was not in attendance.
Quoting Kunisch--- "IT WAS A STUPID MISTAKE BY THE TOWN MANAGER." Disagreeing with the Town Manager is Kunisch's right. To show such disrespect is not his right especially when David was not there. That's a classic example of speaking behind someone's back!
What a classless comment. Kunisch ought to be ashamed of himself, and make a public apology to David Andrews.
Anyone as callous as Kunisch does NOT deserve to represent us.

Matt Moutafis Oro Valley Artist Has Concerns As To What Is Happening To Our Natural Beauty
We recently met Matt Moutofis and he impressed us with his concerns to what is happening to the Oro Valley that many long time residents once knew.
Matt forewarns us that ADOT will continue to build GIANT WALLS along the Oracle road scenic corridor, in what some may consider progress. Perhaps, those citizens, especially the folks in Rancho Vistoso will heed Matt's warning as to what may be in our future.
It won't be pretty!
Please read Matt's column in the July 8 Explorer.

Westward Look Resort In Oro Valley's Future? It Doesn't Look Like it.
Whether or not annexing The Westward Look Resort is a good idea, or not, is debatable.
However, it may be a moot point, as the resort doesn't seem to have any interest--- without getting some "kickback."
Past councils would have said, "Sure,tell us what you want, and you got it."
That was then. This is now. If they wish to be in Oro Valley, fine. If not, that too is fine!
