    Camp Verde AZ (April 25, 2017) – Camp Verde Community Library will host Discover NASA: From Our Town to Outer Space, a national traveling exhibition. This interactive, all-ages exhibition is an inside look at NASA, America’s space agency.

The exhibit is scheduled to arrive next week with an opening reception, Saturday, May 6 from 2:00-4:00p.

    Getting young people interested in science and technology can be a challenge, but Discover NASA makes it fun.

Camp Verde Community Library will offer a related series of public events to bring STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) programming to children, teens and adults in our community. Exhibits and related programming will run through the end of July, 2017.

    Analyzing City’s Legal Right to
    Ban OHVs on Public Roads

    By Tommy Acosta
    Mea Culpa! Mea Culpa! Mea Maxima Culpa! I screwed up. Blew it. Totally made a fool of myself. Missed the boat. I am talking about my editorial on the OHV fight, No Legal Traction on OHVs. I assumed that it was ADOT that would make a decision on whether the city could legally ban off road vehicles from our public roads like S.R. 89A and S.R. 179. Man was I off. ADOT has nothing to do with allowing or disallowing the city to do so. ADOT’s response to me when I asked them to clarify their position, was curt and to the point. “ADOT designs, builds and maintains the state highway system,” I was told. “It is not our place to offer an opinion on how state law might apply in this matter.” It was a totally “duh” moment for me when I realized that that the decision or judgement on the OHV ordinance, would involve the state and not ADOT. Chagrinned I stand. The crux of the matter then is whether the city can effectively use a number of standing state laws that can be interpreted to determine whether the city can legally ban the vehicles or not.
