Maximizing Mesa's strengths through strategic vision, high standards, and quality economic development
During the past 12 years, while I have served as the Economic Development Director at the City of Mesa, much has changed. We have increased the quality and quantity of economic development projects landing in Mesa which have created high value jobs and helped diversify our economy.
We have streamlined the development process to better match the private sector’s needs and enhanced our customer service and technical expertise.
As our population has continued to grow, so has Mesa’s reputation as a premier location for businesses to start and to expand.
Today, I am excited to lead a team of professionals who take pride in working for a city that subscribes to “The Mesa Way”, which means
operating at the speed of business,
providing top-tier customized assistance,
advocating for quality economic development, and
creating solutions for businesses competing in the global market.
Planning through Fiscal Year 2022, our Economic Development Department Strategic Plan identifies tactics to maximize Mesa’s current momentum as well as building additional traction well into the future.
Mesa Office of Economic Development Strategic Goals are:
- To grow Mesa’s economy by attracting new businesses and by helping existing companies expand, thus creating and retaining high value, high quality jobs.
- To become known nationally as a premier location for companies to locate, expand, and prosper.
- To increase capacity for attracting quality economic development citywide to build a sustainable community.
During the four fiscal years beginning July 2018 through June 2022, our goal is
- to assist in attracting or retaining at minimum 7,800 jobs,
- generating more than $1.6 billion in capital investment, and
- adding/ or absorbing more than 2.3 million square feet of commercial space.
- continue to build our technical capacity as a staff,
- conduct more than 500 business retention and expansion visits, and
- service nearly 1,200 technical requests.
- LaunchPoint, Mesa’s Technology Accelerator;
- AZ Laboratories for Security and Defense Research;
- entrepreneurship;
- redevelopment; and
- workforce development, to name a few.
To achieve further success, it is critical to emphasize quality.
The keys to creating a sustainable community include
- having companies which offer high quality jobs,
- a talented workforce,
- a world-class education system, and
- high development standards.
We need to articulate our vision, dream big, and not settle.
We must strive for excellence and increased prosperity for all Mesa residents.
