Say goodbye to the councilmembers tonight

There is a reception tonight to honor the Mesa City Councilmembers who are leaving after their years of service. The event begins at 4 p.m. at the Mesa Convention Center. Formal presentations (and I am assuming speeches) begin at 5 p.m.

From Bailey's Brake Shop to Riverview to a proposed property tax to Waveyard, there has been a lot of healthy debate and scrutiny of Mesa and how things are done. Only time will tell how this mayor and council will be remembered, but they should be honored and thanked for their service.
