Here are some comments about stories happening in Surprise:
“I hope she finds closure in the courts on this. Surprise and old ‘Skip’ were so in the wrong.” — James D.
“I live in Surprise and hate lawsuits. However, this is one I hope she wins. City council treated her terribly and suppressed others who may want to speak against their shenanigans.” — Millie A.
“Too bad she couldn’t read and follow the rules. A poor example in front of her daughter.” — Susan R.
“That darn old First Amendment gets in the way all the time.” — Thomas T.
“She’s just waiting for her big payout.” — Barb G.N.
“All the mayor had to do was let her finish her grievance (less than a minute?) and it would have been over. Just another very bad choice by the mayor and a silent council at the time.” — Nate P.
“As a resident and as someone who will inevitably be paying her, I am shocked this woman hasn’t been paid her lottery winnings from the city of Surprise violating her civil rights. It should be a slam dunk.” — Randy R.
“Time to continue waiting. She violated the rules and was out of order. She created the situation.” — Steve I.
“Another car wash not needed.” — Richard M.
“Another car wash! Just what we need, as the state is being forced by the federal government to reduce the amount of water that is being pumped from the Colorado River.” — James D.
“No carwash! It seems if the spot can’t sell then here comes a car wash, Goodwill, Burger King and now Circle K.” — Rochell M.
“We need another car wash like a hole in the head.” — John G.
“Why not a family place like rollerblading?” — Lee S.
“The city of Surprise sure loves car washes and mini marts. Would be nice if they branched out with something else.” — Sara L.
“Surprise is now car washes, coffee and storage units.” — Amy P.R.
“Getting gas from California has consequences.” — Louis T.

“My EV charges in my garage for less than one-tenth the price.” — David B.

“Anywhere but in Surprise.” — Jason A.
“My guess is the intersection will be surrounded by a nail salon, a storage facility, a fast food place and a gas station because Surprise has so very few of those businesses.” — Bill M.
“Surprise needs to stop getting the same things on every corner. How about family-owned business with something different to make our city more unique?” — Katie G.
“Yes, because who wants to drive two blocks to a car wash? Can’t we attract anything other than so-so food, car washes, gas stations and medical buildings?” — Karen B.
