You said: (Non Retail) Economic Development Agreements (“EDA”) should be used judiciously, in response to our August 11, 2007 “Question Of The Week”. “I would agree that economic incentives used wisely have value”, wrote one blogger. Some respondents noted that Oro Valley has other tools at its disposal to attract the “right kind” of non retail commerce and industry, including “fast tracking” development projects.
You showed no support for more retail business related EDA’s. “The concept of citizens paying to bring in business to sell them something is flawed.” This writer points out that the Oro Valley’s growth and high-profile demographics will drive retail businesses to want to be here. Add to this the impact that higher paying jobs would have and you've got a dynamite combination.
