Via City of Maricopa

After 12 years, Jim Irving has retired from Maricopa’s Planning and Zoning Commission.
Councilmember Eric Goettl thanked Irving for his years of service during last night’s council meeting, stating “there’s not a project or a group here in the city that isn’t somehow touched by Jim and his talents and blessings.”
Planning Chair Bill Roberts echoed these sentiments, thanking Irving for his service in the commission and noted his role as “a mentor” to fellow commissioners.
Irving — who has frequently been referred to as a “super-volunteer” for his constant presence in organizations and events related to seniors, schools and youth — said he enjoyed his time on the commission but felt after three terms, it was time to bring in new blood.
