Tucson City Council Members Put On Notice, Drop Out Of Hispanic Chamber Forum
A Notice of Claim has been filed against former Tucson City Manager Richard Miranda, Tucson Mayor Jonathan Rothschild, and Tucson City Council members Regina Romero, Paul Cunningham, Steve Kozachik, Richard Fimbres, Karin Uhlich, and Shirley Scott for damages incurred by Tucson resident Cecelia Cruz due to “intentional lying and other abuses of process by you or your agents.” The claim also includes City Attorney Mike Rankin, known as Tucson’s “shadow mayor,” and Dennis McLaughlin.
Cecilia Cruz has been attempting to obtain documents related to the propose purchase of El Rio Golf Course by Grand Canyon University in 2013.
According to the legal filing by Attorney Bill Risner:
“Arizona’s public record law is very simple and stated in a single sentence: “Public records and other matters in the custody of any officer shall be open to inspection by any person at all times during office hours.”
“Unlike other laws in other states or the federal FOIA law related to public records, Arizona’s laws do not have a waiting period. Pursuant to A.R.S. § 39- 121.01(D)(l) “any person may request to examine or be furnished copies, printouts or photographs of any public records during regular business hours . ..” Furthermore, the public bodies and officers “shall promptly furnish” such public records. Our Supreme Court has defined “prompt” in this context as being “quick to act” or producing the requested records “without delay.”

Over 11,000 people gathered in the park to “feel the bern.”
