Rep. Travers, that's a noble move on your part toward getting the bill onboard for Don Bolles to be recognized. It's a burr in my saddle that we Democrats acquiesce to achieve our goals, but a feather for our cowboy hats, that we can strategize toward the long gains.

Of course Hoffman won't give the Bolles bill a listen...he was an actual JOURNALIST. Who DIED on the job. Investigating Kemper Marley. Jake Hoffman is a sniveling weasel.

Yes he is. Jake Hoffman that is.

From what little I've read, Kemper might not have been much to cheer for either. There's a lot of history in that name.

Re: HB2570. No substantial change from last year’s vetoed bill. Why waste time on a re-do that doesn’t substantially change the language of the bill and will give builders carte blanc authorization to override city planning? Planning subdivisions and building codes requires substantial training and strict enforcement to keep our neighborhoods safe now and in the future. Vote “No”.

First, limiting short term rentals would be an easy first step in opening the housing market. It would bring down prices and could offer as much as 20% of existing homes for sale or long term rent. We could start with out of state owners or owners of multiple dwellings in the state. I vividly remember the Don Bolles murder and it was shocking. We still don’t know who ordered the hit but his car is in a museum in Washington DC as I recall. I have subscribed to the Tucson Agenda and enjoyed and took to heart the “Overton Window” directive. While probably the only person alive who does not use social media, for anything, really (I do Google) I appreciated the directive.

Here’s hoping the Bolles Memorial becomes a reality this time around - it’s the right thing to do.
