Key actions included adopting a housing needs assessment and action plan (Resolution R2025‑30); designating the city as the destination marketing organization for Show Low to qualify for Arizona Office of Tourism rural cooperative matching funds (R2025‑31); rescinding the airport rates adopted in 2018 and approving revised rates and charges at Show Low Regional Airport (R2025‑27); and approving changes to the city’s standard form contracts policy, including a new city‑owned hangar lease, and adopting a holdover fee equal to two times monthly rent for airport tenants who fail to vacate on time (R2025‑28 and R2025‑26).

The council also approved two special‑event liquor licenses: Show Low Main Street’s Battle of the Bands and Food Bands at Frontier Fields (Aug. 30) and the Arts Alliance of the White Mountains’ Cork and Canvas events (dates July 25, Aug. 29, Sept. 26 and Oct. 31). Both license approvals will be forwarded to the Arizona Department of Liquor Licenses and Control; for special event licenses the council’s decision is final.

Operational and capital items approved included:
• Awarding a five‑year contract for twice‑annual window cleaning for seven city facilities to Adland Enterprises Inc., doing business as Frog Window Cleaners, at $11,970 per year (total $59,850 over five years).
• Authorizing a five‑year lease‑to‑purchase agreement with Dell Technologies for 32 semi‑rugged laptops, two rugged tablets and accessories, with total cost $130,323.45 payable in five annual payments of $26,064.69; staff said the purchase will eliminate patrol desktops and increase operational efficiencies.
• Accepting the completed North Eleventh Street sidewalk improvement project (City project R2025), approving a scope addition of $123,575 that brought final construction cost to $541,627.75, releasing final payment and initiating the two‑year warranty period.
• Adopting bulk water rates for the new potable bulk‑water facility (located at the Public Works site on Thornton Road) at a minimum of $15 per 1,000 gallons (or less), with purchasers also paying any credit‑card fees; example: 1,500 gallons = $30.
• Establishing the streetlight improvement district secondary property tax levy for fiscal 2026 at $250,000 (rate unchanged at $0.1401 per $100 assessed valuation; at that rate a home with $150,000 assessed value pays approximately $17.86 annually).
• Adopting an updated intergovernmental agreement for regional emergency dispatch services (Resolution R2025‑24) that adds Round Valley Police, Round Valley Fire and Medical, Springerville‑Eagar and the Vernon Fire Department to the regional communications center; staff said the cost formula charges participating agencies the same cost per call, currently $47.62 per call, and the center has capacity to expand from 8 consoles to 12 if needed.

City staff said the facility site is a 9‑acre parcel at Show Low Bluff and the preliminary scope calls for a multiuse building in the 90,000–115,000 square‑foot range. The building is planned for flexible layouts — six to eight basketball courts or an alternate 200‑by‑85‑foot multisport arena — with meeting rooms, food‑service space, locker rooms, ADA‑compliant restrooms, seating (fixed and/or retractable), acoustical treatments, scoreboards and audiovisual installations. The site plan includes grading, utilities and roughly 600 parking spaces.

City staff said the design‑build selection process was qualifications‑based under Arizona law. Nine statements of qualifications were received; a seven‑member committee short‑listed three firms and selected Hayden Companies LLC. The selection assumed an available construction budget of $35 million. The approved preconstruction contract covers programming, schematic design, design development and preparation of construction documents; a guaranteed maximum price (GMP) for construction will be brought to council later for approval.

The council approved the preconstruction contract in a single vote. The approved not‑to‑exceed amount for preconstruction services is $4,008,654. City staff said the preconstruction phase will further define final square footage, seating counts and other amenities, and that public input and additional council review will be part of the preconstruction process.

Quinn said the property at 4551 West Hawthorne “routinely violates a Show Low ordinance 16.55.050, which prohibits any nonresidential use, events requiring permits, and use as an event center or banquet hall.” He told the council the home advertises sleeping space for more than 16 people and “has been used as a venue for weddings, corporate retreats, and large group gatherings.”

Quinn described overflow parking onto front yards and streets and said that parked vehicles and combustible yard debris create a significant fire hazard and can block emergency vehicles. He cited a recent call to Timber Mesa Fire for an electrical fire caused by an e‑bike charger in the property’s garage. He also listed on‑site equipment — a gas grill, Traeger smoker, gas‑fired pizza oven and a gas fire pit that he said can produce flames “upwards of 3 feet tall” — and said rotating guests may not know local restrictions or safe use guidelines.

Quinn said the property does not display a contact/emergency sign required under Show Low’s short‑term rental rules and noted that, “Each day this is missing, it is a separate civil violation.” He asked the council who enforces the ordinance and what mechanisms exist to ensure owners comply, and he urged the city both to enforce current rules and to consider whether short‑term rental owners should be required to post fire‑safety or restriction signage.

Mayor and staff asked Quinn to leave his contact details with the city clerk so staff could investigate his concerns. The council did not take formal action on the matter during the meeting; Quinn’s remarks were part of the call to the public, when Arizona open‑meeting law allows the council to receive comment but not to act on items not on the agenda.

The public comment occurred near the start of the meeting during the call to the public period; staff offered to review the specific complaints and follow up through the clerk’s office.

","A resident told the Show Low City Council that a short‑term rental at 4551 W. Hawthorne is operating as an event venue, violating local short‑term rental rules and posing fire and emergency‑access risks; he urged the city to enforce existing ordinances and consider additional safety rules.","actionData","errors"]
