Update on Chandler, AZ city contacts

12.07.2006 23:15

Thanks for the comprehensive info on your site. We had a [disappointing] election in May and have 2 new Council members. Phill Westbrooks and Donna Wallace were termed-out and the replacements are Trinity Donovan  trinity.donovan@chandleraz.gov and Jeff Weninger  jeff.weninger@chandleraz.gov

Covance still has not submitted plans to Planning & Zoning to get the 38 acres re-zoned from agricultural to industrial. If they do it, we intend to take it to a signature-gathering referendum.

ABC channel 15's "The Investigators" did a fabulous expose' on Covance, described below. Hope you can watch the video and possibly add it to your site. Thanks for all you do.

************

Thursday June 29, the Phoenix ABC affiliate KNXV-TV aired a terrific report, by reporter Joe Ducey of "The Investigators," on the fight to keep the notorious Covance testing laboratory out of the city of Chandler.

The anchors warn that some of the images are disturbing. The piece opens with an interviewee's voice saying "If it doesn't make you angry you are cold-hearted" as we see footage of monkeys struggling piteously, tied down on operating tables and, in one case, apparently encased in something that looks like a large test-tube.

The Investigators let us know that the government investigated the Covance Virginia facility and issued 16 citations including handling a primate in an abusive member.

The story is linked to the front page of the Investigators website at

 http://www.knxv.com/news/investigators/

where it is titled, "For the Greater Good?"
Or you can go straight to the video story on line at

The Investigators take comments at  investigators@abc15.com

Yours and the animals',

Covance update, Chandler, Arizona, USA

26.07.2006 15:38

Covance submitted plans to the City of Chandler Planning & Development Administration on July 15, 2006. We are getting more media attention than ever and the community is becoming more involved. There is also new information on Covance's long relationship with Big Tobacco, and in-depth research on the dangers of pharmaceuticals (most not approved by Food & Drug Administration) flushed into our waterways from facilities like Covance.
