Show Notes
Tucson voters have approved a new RTA Next plan, securing funding for transit and Sun Tran services. However, budget pressures persist, leading to potential service cuts and fee hikes. Water rates may increase by 3.5% annually, and trash collection fees will rise for residents and commercial entities. Transportation fees are doubling, and new charges like a pavement damage fee and development fees are being introduced. Meanwhile, Marana council members are warned about mixing personal and town gear on social media, and other local developments include Oro Valleys plans for more sports and festivals and Catalina Foothills schools teacher raises despite enrollment drops.
