This is really uplifting. I've seen stories of how others doing similar work get turned away when they approached their city. Glad that Tuscon still has people with good heads running the city.

Happy to see this because I took this man’s rain harvesting class 15 years ago and my family still practices these techniques. We have a beautiful garden on the northwest side.

Just taught me why my street in Tucson is designed the way it is. While I live in a different neighborhood, I can see a lot of the same strategies in the design.<br><br>Used to think the random roundabouts with stop signs in neighborhoods was a strange Tucson traffic management strategy but now I know it is for the environment!
