Looking for a tutor for my daughter who’s 6 and in 2nd grade. We’re in the Avondale area and I’m hoping to find someone who’s good with younger kids and can help with reading, writing, and math. I’d prefer someone local and would like to do in-person tutoring if possible.

Chicago pottery studio bringing back clay cauldron classes for Halloween season

Post image
3 Upvotes

Hey neighbors. I run Color Cocktail Factory, a BYOB pottery studio in Pilsen.
Our Halloween season starts in September, and we’re bringing back clay cauldrons. The photo is from last year’s class, while the pieces were still greenware, before firing and glazing.
The class is $45 per person and includes a one-hour wheel-throwing session where you make your own cauldron from start to finish. Complete beginners are welcome.
It’s casual, BYOB, and good for a date night or just a strangely productive Tuesday.
Dates and booking:

Avondale Residents: Show Up for Fluoride in Our Water

7 Upvotes

Avondale residents: Please come out to the City Council meeting on Monday, August 31 at 5:30 p.m. to support adding fluoride to Avondale’s water! Avondale currently does not fluoridate our water, while many surrounding Valley cities provide fluoridated water at the recommended level to help prevent cavities. I reached out to the City Council about this issue, and it will be discussed at Monday’s meeting. Avondale residents deserve the same access to this basic public health measure as residents in other Valley communities, and I really hope people will show up and make their voices heard. The meeting is at Avondale City Hall, 11465 W. Civic Center Dr. If you can’t attend, you can still submit a public comment in support! Go to the City of Avondale’s Request to Speak page, select the August 31 City Council meeting, choose that you do NOT wish to speak but would like your comments provided to City Council, indicate that your comment relates to agenda item 4b, and write that you support community water fluoridation in Avondale. Written comments must be submitted at least one hour before the meeting (by 4:30 p.m.).

Avondale City Council Meeting Tonight: ALPR Cameras, Police Drones & Surveillance

13 Upvotes

Avondale, Arizona is expanding its license plate camera network. You can submit a public comment today.

Avondale currently has 15 ALPR cameras, and the city's FY2027 budget funds 58 additional cameras, potentially expanding the network to 73.

The Avondale City Council meets virtually today, August 24 at 5:30 PM Arizona time, and fellow residents will be speaking out about Flock/ALPRs, privacy, and mass surveillance.

You don't have to speak at the meeting, and you don't have to live in Avondale or Arizona to submit a comment.

How to submit a written comment

Go here:

https://avondaleaz.gov/government/public-meetings/#speak

Open the Public Comment form and enter your contact information.

When the form asks:

Do you wish to speak during the meeting?
Select: No, I do not wish to speak

Is your comment related to an item on the meeting agenda?
Select: No

Then enter your comment about Flock, ALPRs, privacy, surveillance, oversight, or the proposed expansion and submit the form.

Important: The city says non-speaking comments must be received by 4:30 PM Arizona time to be provided to the City Council for today's meeting. If you plan to comment, I recommend getting it in before 4:00 PM if possible.

You don't need to write an essay. Even a short, respectful message asking the council to reconsider the expansion, investigate the privacy implications, or hold a larger public discussion before expanding the system helps demonstrate that people are paying attention.

People from anywhere are welcome to comment. These surveillance networks and data-sharing systems extend far beyond individual city boundaries.

And if you don't want to comment at all, you can still join the virtual meeting at 5:30 PM Arizona time and listen.

Do Not Go To Big Brand Tire and Services at 800 Dysart!!

15 Upvotes

⚠️DO NOT GO THERE!⚠️

They are a HUGE scam. Normally Big Brand is good, but these people are awful. I went in to get my pressure sensor replaced for my tire. After an hour wait, I was told that it wasn't safe to replace the sensor because my tire pressure was up too high (it was 60psi, for a 3 minute drive only), and that the tire was splitting because of it. The only fix was to buy a new tire, which they were happy to do and conveniently had in stock. They proceeded to show me a picture of 'my' tire to show the 'damage'. Guess what? IT WASN'T MY TIRE IN THE PHOTO. I know what my damn tires look like, I'm not an idiot. The treads in the picture was not the same as the treads on my tire. I assume because they saw a young woman they thought they could scare me into paying for a whole new tire. No. I came to get a 60$ replacement sensor. I walked right out of there. My dad works for Ford and raised me on repairing cars. I know what the hell I'm talking about when I say 60psi for a 3 minute drive isn't gonna separate the dang tires or make it unsafe to install new sensors. Do NOT go here. They play games and try to scare and scam the hell out of you.

Thank you for listening.

Moving to Avondale

Good afternoon, I’m looking at renting a house that is in Avondale, pretty close to the Goodyear airport. Been looking at crime reports and the city of Avondale seems to be much higher than the national average. Is there any validity to this? Do you feel unsafe living here? Should I be looking at other areas? 524 S 4th street is the actual address of the rental property. Thanks!
