Members of the PebbleCreek Democratic Club met right after Labor Day for their first-ever September meeting, and the turnout was huge, which is no surprise as the club now has more than 260 active members!
Our speaker was Lori Gary, director of Economic Development for the City of Goodyear, and she helpfully explained to the attentive crowd what all those development and construction projects are that we pass as we drive up and down PebbleCreek Parkway, the I-10, Loop 303, and seemingly everywhere else! We are one of the fastest growing communities in the country, which means more housing, more retail, more jobs, and more infrastructure to make living here an even richer experience.
We also heard from Bob Musselwhite, candidate for U.S. House of Representatives for Congressional District 8.
