Andy Taylor sits down with Green Valley Council President Debbie Kenyon and Executive Director David McAllister to discuss the latest initiatives shaping the Green Valley community. The conversation highlights the overwhelming success of the recent Title Fraud Forum, which drew strong attendance and raised awareness about the growing risks of property fraud—while also generating over 1,800 petition signatures aimed at legislative action.

Looking ahead, the Council previews its upcoming Monsoon Madness event, designed to help residents prepare for Arizona’s unpredictable and potentially severe storm season. With experts from agencies like NOAA, local utilities, and emergency services participating, the event emphasizes preparedness, safety, and community engagement.

The episode also dives into the future of Green Valley with plans for a new Community Resource Center—a centralized hub that will offer residents easier access to government services, meeting space, and vital community resources all under one roof. As the Council continues to serve as a voice and connector for the region, this project represents a major step forward in strengthening local services and accessibility.
