Growing in Stature: An economic look at past, present and future of Anthem

Anthem Community Council offers consistent voice of advocacy

For more than 20 years, the Anthem Community Council has been a constant voice in support of its constituency at multiple levels of government here in Maricopa County with one idea in mind: Quality development.

“Anthem engages with Maricopa County and City of Phoenix to support or oppose nearby proposals --- economic, commercial or residential --- that impact our community,” said Community Council President Bob Mckenzie when he sat down with Independent Newsmedia.

“We attend meetings and speak on behalf of our residents to ensure that our voices are heard regarding economic activity or nearby projects that will affect the area. Anthem seeks to support and shape — or oppose — nearby proposals that enhance (or deter) the economic and /or social well-being of Anthem residents. Our strategic goal is to ensure that, to the extent possible, that our community remains a highly sought-after place to live, work, and play.”
