With city and state revenues back in the black, jobs on the rise and commercial development trending in the right direction, it’s important to remember the upswing in Arizona’s economy didn’t happen by accident.
Mayors and city council members across the state make economic development a policy priority each and every day. Our 91 cities and towns are on the front lines of business attraction and are partners with Governor Ducey and our Legislature in attracting high-quality jobs to our state.
We like to think of cities and towns as creating the canvases for people to succeed and realize their dreams.
