Chandler Chamber

LIVING

The

President

from my desk to yours

(terri_kimble)

A

pril was an exciting month for us as we welcomed many new business to the Chandler Chamber! With over fifteen ribbon cuttings this month, the Chandler Chamber has been an active part in furthering businesses in our community. I would like to personally congratulate all of our new members on their ribbon cutting celebrations, and thank you for recognizing the benefits of becoming a stakeholder in the Chandler Chamber. To our current members, we at the Chamber appreciate your continual support of the Chandler Chamber and active participation in our community. Our monthly Women In Business event was a huge success! Keynote speaker, Deborah Gardner presented “Persuasive Tips to Help Your Business” and provided unique insight into the business world to our attendees. Our workshop guests Stephen Chandler, Al Crusoe and Jude Williams provided excellent opportunity for discussion and mentoring. This month’s Women In Business will be Tuesday, May 19th with keynote speaker, Susan Brooks, founder of Cookies From Home. Don’t forget to register online and reserve your spot at this fantastic event!

Micah Miranda, economic development director for the city of Chandler and Kevin Sullivan, senior vice president of business attraction and expansion of the Arizona Commerce Authority spoke to over 100 attendees about business developments in Chandler and Arizona as a whole. Intel also released their 2014 Economic Impact Study at the luncheon. Our April 16th Business After Business was a special experience for attendees as they went on a trip exploring our very own Downtown Chandler! By stopping in at twenty of our local downtown businesses, members had the opportunity to discover more of what our unique downtown businesses have to offer! This month’s Business After Business will be held Thursday, May 21st at Redline Athletics. Make sure to register online to let us know you will be there! Other events to look forward to in May include Wake Up Chandler, May 13th and Chamber 1o1 May 28th.

The Chandler Chamber is here for you and has resources available to help you achieve success in a number of ways. Let’s continue to strive for success and growth of our fantastic Chandler business community! For a complete schedule of all On April 10, our Public Policy Series was held at upcoming events for March, visit us online at Alliance Bank of Arizona where members and the community met with Congressman Matt Salmon and chandlerchamber.com, email any questions to [email protected] or call us at Jennings Imel from the US Chamber of Commerce. (480) 963-4571. April 22nd was our quarterly Economic Update Luncheon and was held April 22 at the Crowne Plaza To register for any of our events, please visit our website chandlerchamber.com San Marcos Resort.

Mayor

Tibshraeny (jaytibshraeny)

What do you think is the most important economic development focus for Chandler over the next 10 years? • Diversification of employment industries? • Redevelopment of obsolete sites and development of vacant property? • Attraction of entrepreneurs and start-ups? • Mixed-use developments that bring amenities and jobs closer to where people live? That’s the question being asked in May as we continue to update our City’s General Plan. State law requires us to re-adopt our General Plans at least once every 10 years. The current General Plan was adopted by the City Council and ratified by voters in 2008. We plan to go back to the voters in August 2016. Until then, we are working to get as much input from the community as possible. And our monthly poll is just one way to gain feedback and engage our stakeholders. This series of online polls will aide planners charged with updating the General Plan. To participate, simply visit the project website, www.chandleraz.gov/GPudate, and click on the “Get Involved” tab. May’s topic id perfect for the business community and I hope you will take a few minutes to weigh in. You can also work one-on-one with our City planners during a series of Planning Labs held from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on the first Friday of the month at the City’s Museum, located inside the McCullough-Price House, 300 S. Chandler Village Drive, near the mall. You can also submit comments online at www.chandleraz.gov/GPupdate. The General Plan is a critical document for our future planning efforts. I hope you will share your thoughts with us. This month the Council will vote to tentatively adopt the 2015-2016 Fiscal Year Budget (with final adoption in June). We do not anticipate any increases to the City’s portion of the property tax rate, and we remain cautiously optimistic for the City’s financial future. You can learn more about our efforts here: www.chandleraz. gov/budget. And don’t forget to follow me on Twitter @jaytibshraeny.
