He also has served since 2016 on the Board of Directors for the Valley Hotel & Resort Association. As a long time resident who has seen and been part of the growth and evolution of Scottsdale AZ, and as a member of the CRC, Rich hopes to contribute a balanced view that will help the governing body of this great and unique city make informed decisions regarding growth and development and its impact on the community; and the key economic drivers that create and support businesses, jobs, and tax revenues, and ultimately, enrich and enhance the quality of life of its residents while establishing communal sense of civic pride and participation. On finding a balance…”While development is generally very positive, creating a healthy and vibrant economic environment, if unthoughtfully unconstrained and guided it can diminish the image/ perception of the destination and negatively impact the quality of life in the community, and actually de-value the overall market economy”. Going along with that thought, Rich is concerned that the accelerated rate of urban density being created that impacts the aesthetics and infrastructure of both commercially zoned and residential areas as well as the natural landscapes and recreational areas. He would approach these and any related issues with consideration of both the benefits and the caveats mentioned above. He also feels that there are areas of our city within or adjacent to areas that both tourists and residents gravitate to, that could use an innovative and inspired approach to development that would positively impact, enhance and expand the overall quality of life for our residents as well as the visitor experience. “Bottom line is that the whole process needs to be pragmatic, yet inspired and imaginative, occasionally innovative, but always thoughtful, inclusive, and transparent”.
