Neighborhood Picnic
Alvernon Park
April 5, 2025 – 11:00 AM – 2:00 PM
PHNA President Laurie Mulcahy addressed a crowd of 35-40 neighbors at Alvernon Park:
It was a lovely spring day for the PHNA Annual Picnic. Neighbors came together at the park and enjoyed the sunshine, conversation, playground and lawn games. I personally met some new neighbors that have joined our community recently, and some old ones that I haven’t had the chance to connect with for quite a while. We provided some information about recent neighborhood events and updates on several projects.
A big thanks goes out to Nancy Huff who organized the two food trucks, El Sinaloense and Doshirok, as well as the City of Tucson’s Ready Set Rec that provided games for the kids, and adults! I managed to sample both the Sonoran hot dogs and Korean fare, and they were delicious.
Thank you, Peter Howell community, for a lovely afternoon.

There were a lot of young families and the children seemed to be getting along and having a good time. Jason Katerhenry managed the grill for hotdogs and a number of potluck dishes were available as well. Lots of good conversation and catching up.

Peter Howell Neighborhood Spring Meeting
La Quinta Inn at 102 North Alvernon Way
Monday May 15, 2017 – 6:30 PM
Opening remarks and introductions were made by PHNA President Claude Bailey. Thirty neighbors signed the attendance list. Presenters for agenda items on the spring Curb Appeal contest and to give the Treasurer’s Report were not available tonight.
Tucson Police Dept personnel Lt. John Buckley, Sgt. Cruz and Community Service Officer Kara Curtis want to continue and expand working with the community. They spoke about safety tips when you go on vacation, when to call the police, what the police do about park trespassers. Please call 911 when something is not right. Be eyes and ears for the police. For non-emergency questions or general assistance, call Tucson Police Midtown CSO Kara Curtis at 520-837-7428.
City Council representative Steve Kozachik spoke about how proud he is of the constituent services his staff provides to Ward 6 residents. Council Aides, especially Amy Stabler for Peter Howell, are ready to tackle most any problem with City government that comes along. Amy will be moving to North Carolina next month and introduced her replacement, Chris Ortiz y Pina. Contact number for them at Ward 6 is 520-837-4238.
Steve went on to describe recent changes in City Code Enforcement, including changes modeled on what was learned from Mesa’s code enforcement presentation from last fall. Several code inspectors are being trained to better present cases in City Court and an effort is being made to have a designated City Magistrate hear the cases, to provide continuity. New software is planned which will help streamline field inspectors’ duties and data entry. A new flyer has been created to promote clean neighborhoods.
Steve responded to several particular problems brought up by attendees. He also urged residents to rapidly report graffiti, with a picture if possible, so that cleaning can take place quickly, thus reducing the benefit to the tagger. TPD keeps a graffiti picture database that is instrumental in tracking activity that leads to convictions. Steve talked about how he generates his newsletter, which is a byproduct of his meticulous review of current issues, upcoming Mayor and Council agendas, and activities at state and federal levels.
Deanna Barber, a Navigator from Catholic Community Services, described the Tucson Homeless Work Program. Screened homeless individuals work five hours a day cleaning public property, are paid $10 per hour and get lunch and access to showers and various services. Deanna assisted with the group that cleaned the storm channel N. of 5th & Longfellow.
PHNA board member Mary Koopman, wants to reactivate Neighborhood Watch. She will host a meeting to allow neighbors to learn more and to commit to participating in the program.
501(c)(3) Tax Exempt Application Update – still pending – an audit of PHNA books is needed – former PHNA president and treasurer Neil Scott volunteered to head up effort.
