Expected to sweep the Oscars this year, Oppenheimer was largely advertised as an “invention of the atomic bomb” biopic. Trailer: Release Date: 7/21/2023 Director: Christopher Nolan Rotten Tomatoes: 93% iMBD: 8.6/10 Where to Watch: In theaters Instead, it turned out to be a three-part narrative (ideal for Nolan’s nonlinear storytelling) about the path that led Oppenheimer (Cillian Murphy) to the Manhattan Project, the trials involved in coordinating that project, and the political fallout that came with being labeled the “father of the atomic bomb” in an era of post-War McCarthyism.

A Burned Area Emergency Response (BAER) team is being established to begin a burned area assessment of the Grapevine wildfire on the Verde Ranger District. Preliminary evaluation has found no immediate or downstream values at risk, including the community of Whitehorse.

Last week the Town of Prescott Valley received information that the water at the Urban Forest/Yavapai Lakes could be positive for cyanobacteria in the form of Microcystis cells. Microcystis is known to be toxic to humans and animals. Out of an abundance of caution, Parks & Recreation decided to close access to the park and lakes, providing time to sample and test the water.

During my time as a council member and Mayor for the City of Prescott, there have been many instances of antiquated, outdated, and sometimes ineffective ordinances that were not consistent with our current times, or the real-world environment.
