Early voting continues through Saturday

Early voting for the June 13 general election for two City Council seats and two ballot questions continues through Saturday.

The four candidates running for the two seats are Warren Harhay, Kiernan McManus, John Milburn and Cam Walker, who is seeking re-election for his third and final term.

The first ballot question asks whether the 30 allotments per development per year limit from the controlled-growth ordinance should be removed, but the 120 allotment cap per year be kept.

The second one is an advisory question asking the voters if they support a full interchange on Interstate 11 at Buchanan Boulevard, south of the Southern Nevada Veterans Memorial Cemetery.

Early voting takes place at City Hall, 401 California Ave., from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. today, and from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Friday and Saturday.

The general election is on June 13, and the polls will be open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Boulder City residents who are registered to vote can vote at either of the city’s two voting centers. The first is the Boulder City Parks and Recreation Department, 900 Arizona St., and the second is at King Elementary School, 888 Adams Blvd.

New faces at BCPD

Monday morning, three new Boulder City police officers were sworn in during a ceremony that featured city staff, family and fellow officers. Above, Chief Tim Shea swears in, from left, Rayman Bateman, Zach Martin and Hi’ilani Waiwaiole. Shea noted that it’s very rare for them to swear in more than one new officer at a time. Two more future officers will be attending the police academy next month. The new officers help fill vacancies left by retiring officers or those who have moved onto other agencies. Left, Mayor Joe Hardy gave the three new officers an impromptu group hug during the ceremony.

I’m about to say something that divides many in terms of their opinion. More than should a sandwich be cut horizontally or the diagonal cross-cut. Even more than the question of Coke vs. Pepsi and even more controversial than whether a tomato is a fruit or vegetable.

From Garden to Grave

Last week, the Christian Center Church hosted four showings of Garden to Grave: Live Stations of the Cross. Pastor Deborah Downs said the Stations of the Cross “are a contemplative practice of walking the way of suffering with Jesus. If one were to visit the city of Jerusalem, they would discover all 14 stations on what is called the Via Dolorosa – The Sorrowful Way – a path from Pilate’s court to Golgotha to the tomb.”
