Via City of Chandler
By Ken Sain | The Arizonan
A company that tests semiconductor chips for Intel wanted to build a new facility in West Chandler but their proposal did not fit with city codes.
Company officials could get an override, if they wanted, but it would delay their plans about six months.
There’s a global shortage of semiconductor chips and speed is essential, so the company revised its plans to fit the city code rather than wait on the speed of government.
Game Show Battle Rooms was eager to open its new concept in West Chandler, but wanted to sell beer and wine.
That raised another problem with the city’s codes and would delay opening for four months while the owners and city sorted it out.
Chandler staff told City Council April 24 that the city codes are getting in the way of business being done quickly.
