Boeing is planning a 267,761 sqft expansion for its Mesa facility to produce specialized carbon military parts that will employ 260 workers, following the Planning and Zoning Board's unanimous approval on July 22 (located about 1,700 ft north of the northeast corner of North Greenfield Road and East McDowell Road).

On Thursday, the EPA reversed its earlier denial and approved SRP's use of the clay liner on its coal ash pond at the 780-megawatt Coronado Generating Station in St. Johns, allowing the utility to avoid over $90 million in costs while sparking concerns about water contamination.

The Area Agency on Aging in Maricopa County said many older adults called for help with rising utility bills including steep water charges as cuts to benefits and high living costs force seniors to seek extra income.

A former Mesa Public Schools employee filed a $750,000 notice of claim against the city (alleging an inaccurate police report cost him his job).
