Terry Goddard, former mayor of Phoenix, was part of a compelling series of speakers that shared their personal and professional thoughts this past year as part of CatttleTrack Talks, curated by Janie Ellis, the head of CattleTrack Arts and Preservation Foundation and owner of CattleTrack Arts Compound.
I shared my own thoughts on my mayorship too — but I thought mostly of how important Mayor Goddard and Mayor Drinkwater were at a time when both cities were literally growing (annexing and building) in the ‘90s.
Woe to the person, I said, who had to follow Herb Drinkwater as mayor. His high ratings were like 94% in his final term of office — and he spent the next four years tracking down and trying to make the final 6% happy! NO kidding!
