The City of Globe made considerable progress toward its goals in 2022 and is poised to build on those successes as the calendar turns to 2023.
In addition to strengthening its ability to provide services to residents by increasing the civic workforce, Globe has invested in aging infrastructure and laid the groundwork for more improvements in basic services. City leaders have also worked to build important relationships to help provide funding – and political heft – in the future.
“Obviously, one of the things we will continue to do is to build stronger relationships and partnerships, not only locally but statewide,” says Globe Mayor Al Gameros. “We would not be able to accomplish many of these projects without those relationships. One of our key goals is to leverage this collaboration and advance as a key rural region in Arizona.”
Through efforts including strengthening ties with Gila County and other local stakeholders, seeking funding opportunities with federal agencies, and engaging a lobbyist in Washington DC, the City has picked up momentum that will serve residents well into 2023 and beyond.
