Show Low’s “Deuce of Clubs Drop” Ushers in the New Year on December 31

Event will be broadcast live on the city’s Facebook page

Show Low’s annual, award-winning Deuce of Clubs Drop on Thursday, Dec. 31, is the last event of 2020. Due to ongoing efforts to combat COVID-19 and in accordance with Governor Doug Ducey’s Executive Order 2020-59 dated December 2, 2020, the City of Show Low will host the Deuce of Clubs Drop live on the city’s Facebook page. We are encouraging the public to celebrate the New Year on Facebook live. The broadcast will begin at 11:30 p.m., and we will count down the remaining seconds of the “old” year and usher in the “new” year as an illuminated deuce of clubs drops to the ground. Fireworks cap off the evening as we celebrate the entrance of 2021! For more information, call the City of Show Low’s recreation department at (928) 532-4130.

RECYCLE YOUR CHRISTMAS TREE DEC. 26 THROUGH JAN. 10

Trees must be free of decorations and lights

Help the environment and drop off used Christmas trees (free of ornaments, wire hooks, lights, tinsel, etc.) for recycling from Saturday, Dec. 26, to Sunday, Jan. 10, in the designated area bordered by orange construction fencing in the parking lot at Frontier Park, 650 N. 9th Place in Show Low.

This annual recycling event is a partnership between the City of Show Low and Novo Power. The recycled trees will be transported to the Novo Power biomass plant in Snowflake and used as fuel to generate electric power.

The Novo Power biomass plant is a 25-megawatt electrical generation plant located on the former Catalyst Paper Corporation property. The plant began commercial operations in June 2008 and generates power primarily fueled by wood waste from forest thinning projects in the Apache-Sitgreaves National Forests. Novo Power is currently selling its electrical power output to Arizona Public Service (APS) and Salt River Project (SRP) under 20-year purchase agreements.

CITY OF SHOW LOW GOING TO ONLINE BUSINESS PERMIT SYSTEM

Searchable business directory will be a feature component

The City of Show Low is replacing its current paper system with an online system for its business permit process beginning in 2021. Businesses that have a current Show Low Business Permit will receive renewal notices via email with instructions in December. A new portal will be added to the City of Show Low website for businesses with a business permit to operate in the City of Show Low.

A feature component of this new business permit system will be a searchable directory of Show Low businesses. Residents and visitors alike will have the ability to search for Show Low businesses by name and by business category to help facilitate business activity. Specific Information that will be in the directory for each business includes business name, business type, business contact information and a photograph of the business, if provided.

Currently permitted businesses in Show Low that do not receive a renewal notice by December 31, 2020 are encouraged to contact Katie Fechtelkotter with the City of Show Low Planning and Zoning Department at (928) 532-4042 or kblakeslee@showlowaz.gov to obtain a current permit and to get into the Show Low business directory.
