The city of Goodyear has brought aboard a new economic development director.
James Smith, who brings more than 25 years of business and economic development experience to Goodyear, will lead the city's efforts to attract and retain businesses, support job creation and investment, and strengthen Goodyear's position as a premier destination for economic growth.
"Goodyear is a growing community with numerous assets that bring tremendous opportunity, and I'm excited to help build on the positive momentum," said Smith. "A big part of economic development is listening to what city leadership and our residents want and working to attract the highly desired businesses that add to the city's quality of life."
