Tucson Regional Town Hall’s Community Conversation on Land Use

The Tucson Regional Town Hall’s Community Conversation on Land Use was a major success in bringing Southern Arizona’s municipalities together. The event resulted in more than 500 politicians, business leaders, non-profit organization executives and community members moving forward in creating a regional plan that celebrates individual community successes and will help Tucson grow cohesively and vibrantly.

This event was also covered very well in the media and we appreciate our local news outlets’ interest in helping us spread our message. Below are links to some of the best articles and editorial.
