Good morning, Mesa.

Mesa and Valley school districts plus community centers are offering free summer meals for children and affordable options for adults from late May through July, so families should check local schedules for specific meal times.

Mesa non-profits, including Saint Vincent De Paul + The Salvation Army, have expanded hydration stations, cooling centers, and respite facilities amid soaring temperatures during the ongoing heat wave; community donations are boosting relief efforts to help vulnerable residents avoid heat-related illnesses.

Falcon Field Airport is hosting the free Cockpit Close Up community event on June 6 from 8 to 10 a.m. at its terminal building (4800 E.

Falcon Drive) to celebrate America 250 with historic aircraft displays, family activities, local emergency services, and a visit from the public library.

Across the region, school districts are building new campuses as enrollment needs shift and aging facilities prompt change — Mesa Public Schools will open two new high schools this fall while other districts start projects to meet the growing demand for space.

The MCCCD Governing Board approved a 5.2% property tax increase on May 26 to close a $4 million gap & fund over $20 million in new programs as part of a $1.82 billion budget starting July 1.

Homeowners will see slight rate changes on local properties.
