The city of Phoenix is about to begin a very important project and we need your help. Every ten years Arizona State Law requires cities to update their general plans. The General Plan provides comprehensive direction for the growth, conservation and redevelopment of all physical aspects of the city through goals, policies and recommendations. This document is intended to be both long range and visionary and to provide guidance for actions over a long period of time. This project will be broken into two phases. Phase I - visioning, and Phase II - policy plan development. Phase I will kick off on October 5, 2009 and continue through June, 2010. Phase II will begin in September, 2010 and continue through September, 2011. The plan will be presented to the public for approval at an election in September, 2012.
Visit the Phoenix Central Neighborhood Association calendar page at www.PhoenixCenral.org/Calendar.html for specific workshop dates. The boundaries of the Phoenix Central Neighborhood Association (Indian School to Thomas Roads and 7th Avenue and 3rd Street) is assigned to the Encanto Village. A schedule for all villages can be viewed by visiting www.PhoenixCentral.org/village.pdf.
A different activity will be held each month. At the end of each workshop, more details will be provided regarding the activity for the next workshop. You are encouraged to share this list of meeting dates with your friends and neighbors and ask them to attend. These workshops are open to the public.
At the first workshops in October, you will be asked the question "What do you value most about Phoenix, and why?" To help answer this question, ask yourself how you came to be in Phoenix. Were you born here? Did you move here? What attracted you to Phoenix? What keeps you here? What stands out to you as a special moment, event or feeling during the time you have lived in Phoenix? WE WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU! If you are not able to attend a workshop, please emai your response to planphx@phoenix.gov.
THANK YOU!!!

Exciting Improvements at The Clarendon
We have a lot to be excited about at The Clarendon - if you haven't been by lately, you'll notice the following improvements that have been a long time in the making:
* New air conditioning and heating system. This state-of-the-art system replaces our antiquated system that was installed in 1972. Now you can control everything from the comfort of your bed (same beds as Ritz Carlton and Four Seasons chains!): make the room as hot or cold as you want, the system is also whisper quiet and features something no other hotel in Arizona can offer: plasma air filtration, for the cleanest hotel room air out there, so you'll sleep better and wake up rested, ready to take on the day.
* New rooftop improvements. Our railings are installed and have been painted, and the second stairwell has been installed and is awaiting final approval from the city. Once this happens, we have been told that the occupancy on the rooftop will be increased from 49 people to somewhere in the range of 250 people, which means you won't have to worry about waiting in lines to see those fabulous Arizona sunsets from the rooftop deck at The Clarendon. Soon, we hope to have some new rooftop and pool furnishings.
Clarendon in the News/Media
* The Clarendon is the featured "Hotel of the Month" In September's Southwest Airlines Spirit Magazine, which is read by most of the 15 million passengers on Southwest Airlines every month! If you fly Southwest Airlines be sure to write "I LOVE THIS HOTEL" on the article during your next flight and take a picture and email it to contest@GoClarendon.com with the subject "SPIRIT" and we'll randomly select an entry for two free nights in a pool view suite at The Clarendon! Entries must be received by October 1st.
* We're climbing the ranks on tripadvisor.com - we're back in the top 20 for all hotels in metro Phoenix and we're #12 on the list of "Best Hotels for Business" in metro Phoenix - pretty impressive!
* We're getting reports from Europe and Asia and Australia that the episodes of Candy Girls and Dr. 90210 that were filmed at The Clarendon are airing pretty often... we love the exposure!
* Phoenix New Times nominated us as one of four hotels for "Best Hotel Pool" - let's see how the votes come back next month.
Contests at The Clarendon!
This is what you've probably been waiting for - our current contests:
