The Chamber of Southern Arizona announces today its official endorsement of Plan Tucson 2025, the City of Tucson’s proposed general plan on the November 4 ballot. The Chamber’s Board of Directors approved the endorsement at its most recent board meeting.
“We commend Mayor and Council for their vision in shaping Plan Tucson 2025,” said Joe Snell, President & CEO of The Chamber of Southern Arizona. “This plan lays the foundation for housing, transportation, water resiliency, climate preparedness and economic growth. The Chamber supports this plan because it represents a roadmap to a more competitive and prosperous Southern Arizona.”
Plan Tucson 2025 sets priorities for the next decade of city growth and development including land use, housing affordability, infrastructure improvements, workforce stability and transparent governance. The plan’s focus on expanding housing near job centers will help stabilize Tucson’s workforce, and protecting industrial corridors will ensure the region remains competitive in attracting and retaining employers.
While Plan Tucson 2025 is a forward-looking blueprint for our city, The Chamber will be active in making sure the policies that stem from this align with business growth,” said Michael Guymon, Chief Advocacy Officer of The Chamber of Southern Arizona. “Weurge voters to join the Chamber in saying YES on November 4 so that together we can deliver the housing, jobs and infrastructure needed for Southern Arizona’s continued growth.”
