Editor’s Letter DILLON ROSENBLATT

New year, new voice for Buckeye

W HILE BUCKEYE CONTINUES TO EXPAND, WITH NEW FAMILIES moving in daily and businesses sprouting across town, one thing remains constant: the need for accurate, timely and relevant reporting that keeps our community informed. When I joined InBuckeye late last year, I made it my mission to deliver the stories that matter most to you. From city council decisions to school updates and economic growth, our team is here to keep you connected to the heart of Buckeye. In 2025, we’ll continue to grow alongside our readers, covering the issues shaping our city’s future. Whether it’s water sustainability, infrastructure improvements or the people making a difference in our neighborhoods, InBuckeye is committed to being your trusted source for local news.

This month’s edition features a dive into new development in Verrado; an exclusive preview of what Buckeye can expect from its newly elected state senator, Timothy Dunn; and a hidden gem of a food truck sure to bring you a taste of Paris this year. As InBuckeye’s first editor, I’m grateful for the opportunity to be part of Buckeye’s story. This publication isn’t just about reporting the news — it’s about celebrating the people and progress that makes Buckeye thrive. I can’t wait to see what 2025 has in store for our city and this publication. Thank you for trusting InBuckeye to be your source for all things local. Here’s to a new year and a stronger community!
