Surprise must attract new businesses, improve roads and increase government efficiency, Mayor Sharon Wolcott said at her annual State of the City address Tuesday.
Wolcott, who began her second year in office in January, spoke to a crowd of about 200 people at the Surprise Regional Chamber of Commerce’s monthly meeting at the Colonnade in Surprise.
The mayor gave an upbeat forecast for the city, which has struggled with financial woes and personnel issues in the past year.
