Letters to the Editor for March 13
Council electionsIt appears that other people besides the liberals in Tucson think there is a problem with how the elections work. After living in Tucson for decades, I have always been disgusted that the methods of maintaining control of the city council have been allowed to continue but, Tucson has always been managed by liberals.
According to poolcontractor.com the"average" 33x18' swimming pool loses approximately 600 gallons of water per week to evaporation. In our arid climate it's reasonable to assume an even higher rate of loss. Multiply that by the thousands of public and private pools in the Tucson area, and it's clear that enormous quantities of water are being lost.
There are nine species of trees native to the Sonoran Desert that live below 4,500 feet, perfectly suited to Tucson. We see these trees daily in the washes, hillsides and yards, so they are adapted to our climate and low-water environment. I suspect these trees will make up the majority of those planted.
It saddens me to see such an eminently qualified candidate to head the Arizona Department of Health Services as Dr. Theresa Cullen being made a political pawn in this perennial contest of partisanship, receiving the Fauci condemnation treatment for promoting responsible public health policy.
