2023 Program: Advancing The Arizona We Want –
Resilient Infrastructure & Sustainable Water Future

Tue, Aug. 29, 2023 l 9:00 AM – 12:00 PM MST | JW Marriott Starr Pass, Tucson, AZ

Registration Closed

Arizona is at a pivotal juncture. Rapid growth and tremendous changes over the last decade reflect the state's unique advantages and present new challenges and opportunities. This has put additional pressure on leaders to effectively manage the state’s resources, protect its natural spaces and other assets, and provide equitable access to essential services.

Leaders and communities across the state have an incredible opportunity: Arizonans in cities, towns, and rural communities overwhelmingly agree on priorities and actions to drive the state forward and ultimately create The Arizona We Want. This includes remarkable consensus about building vibrant communities with resilient infrastructure and sustainable practices to support Arizona’s continued growth and ensure a high quality of life for all.

This bright future that Arizonans want is not up to any one individual. The path forward requires us to work together at every level — to listen, learn, develop, and act on promising solutions.

Join Center for the Future of Arizona (CFA) for an informative and interactive program to:

• Gain data-driven insight into what Arizonans believe is vital for a healthy environment and sustainable future. Plus, what Arizonans want elected leaders to address.
• Learn how fellow Arizona leaders and communities are successfully investing in infrastructure, enabling a sustainable and resilient economy prepared to meet future demands.
• Discover how available funding can help support your community’s goals. Then, connect with technical assistance and resources to support project scoping and financing.
• Explore water data and planning resources enabling communities to make informed decisions and improve public awareness of local opportunities and needs.
• Engage with attendees and other leaders to understand gaps, opportunities, or shared concerns in infrastructure, sustainability, and the status of Arizona’s water supplies.

This pre-conference session is complimentary as part of the League of Arizona Cities and Towns Annual Conference but requires registration with CFA to reserve your spot.
