| Description | THE EFFORT TO RESOLVE ARIZONA'S CONTINUING FISCAL CRISIS, AND A COMMUNITYWIDE EFFORT TO IMPROVE THE QUALITY OF GOVERNMENT IN THE CITY OF TUCSON, DOMINATED SALC'S WORK IN 2010. AS CRITICALLY IMPORTANT AS THESE TWO EFFORTS WERE, BY NO MEANS DO THEY FULLY REPRESENT SALC'S GOALS AND INVOLVEMENT IN THE COMMUNITY. AMONG ITS OTHER ACTIVITIES, SALC CONTINUED ITS LEADERSHIP IN BIOSCIENCES AND TECHNOLOGY, EDUCATION, WATER, AND THE COMMUNITY AT LARGE. THE FOLLOWING SUMMARY OF SALC'S 2010 YEAR IN REVIEW REVEALS THE EXTENT AND DEPTH OF SALC'S ENGAGEMENT THROUGHOUT SOUTHERN ARIZONA AND, INDEED, THE STATE AS A WHOLE. ***GOVERNANCE FOCUS AREA***SALC ENDORSES O'CONNOR HOUSE PROJECTS TO IMPROVE THE STRUCTURE OF STATE GOVERNMENT. ON FEB. 17 SALC MEMBERS VOTED TO SUPPORT LEGISLATIVE PROPOSALS DESIGNED TO IMPROVE THE STATE'S FUNCTIONING: REPEAL OF CLEAN ELECTIONS; REPLACE THE SECRETARY OF STATE WITH A LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR; REPEAL TERM LIMITS; REQUIRE INITIATIVES TO BE FILED 180 DAYS BEFORE AN ELECTION; AND ELIMINATE MISLEADING INITIATIVE TITLES ON THE BALLOT. ALL EXCEPT THE REPEALS OF CLEAN ELECTIONS AND TERM LIMITS WERE PLACED ON THE NOVEMBER BALLOT. SALC ENDORSES THE INDEPENDENT VOTER INITIATIVE. ON FEB. 17, SALC MEMBERS ENDORSED AN EFFORT LED BY STEVE LYNN AND DONALD PITT TO WORK WITH THE LEAGUE OF WOMEN VOTERS TO INCREASE VOTING BY INDEPENDENTS IN THE STATES PRIMARY ELECTIONS. TOO MANY INDEPENDENTS DON'T REALIZE THEY CAN VOTE IN ARIZONA PRIMARIES, AND THE GROUP DEVELOPED A PILOT PROJECT TO MAKE CONTACT THREE TIMES WITH INDEPENDENTS IN FIVE DISTRICTS BEFORE THE STATE'S PRIMARIES. INDEPENDENT VOTERS TEND TO BE MORE MODERATE, LYNN SAID, AS HE ENCOURAGED SALC MEMBERS TO DONATE MONEY TO THE LEAGUE OF WOMEN VOTERS FOR THE PROJECT. THE PILOT PROJECT WAS ESTIMATED TO COST $200,000. IF IT PROVES TO BE SUCCESSFUL, THE PLAN IS TO EXPAND STATEWIDE IN THE 2012 ELECTION - A POTENTIALLY ESPECIALLY FERTILE TIME BECAUSE THE STATE WILL HAVE BEEN REDISTRICTED BY THEN. SALC STANDS WITH ARIZONA IN A COURT BATTLE OVER NON-PARTISAN ELECTIONS. THE FIGHT FOR NON-PARTISAN AND WARD-ONLY ELECTIONS IN TUCSON REACHED THE ARIZONA COURT OF APPEALS AS ALL SIDES FILED INITIAL BRIEFS, CONTINUING A BATTLE THAT BEGAN OVER ONE YEAR AGO. ON JULY 13, 2009, THE GOVERNOR SIGNED INTO LAW SB 1123, WHICH MANDATED NON-PARTISAN AND WARD-ONLY ELECTIONS IN ARIZONA CITIES. HOWEVER, ON SEPT. 16 THE CITY OF TUCSON SUED THE STATE OF ARIZONA TO CHALLENGE THE CONSTITUTIONALITY OF THE LAW. ARGUMENTS FOLLOWED AND ON MARCH 4, 2010, THE TRIAL COURT SIDED WITH THE STATE AND SALC AND UPHELD THE LAW. IT RULED THAT THE NEW LAW IS CONSTITUTIONAL BECAUSE IT PERTAINS TO MATTERS OF "STATEWIDE CONCERN". ON APRIL 1 THE CITY OF TUCSON APPEALED THE RULING TO THE ARIZONA COURT OF APPEALS, ARGUING THAT HOW A CITY CONDUCTS ITS MUNICIPAL ELECTIONS IS A MATTER OF LOCAL CONCERN, AND NOT A MATTER OF STATEWIDE CONCERN. ONCE AGAIN, SALC JOINED FORCES WITH THE STATE TO DEFEND THE LAW. "SALC HAS LONG BEEN INVOLVED WITH EFFORTS TO REFORM THE CITY'S CHARTER, AND IT BRINGS THAT PERSPECTIVE TO THIS CASE," SAYS THE ARGUMENT PREPARED BY LEWIS AND ROCA. "SALC WILL FOCUS ITS BRIEFING ON THE PROPER INTERPRETATION OF THE CHARTER WITH REGARD TO PARTISAN ELECTIONS AND THE NEGATIVE IMPACTS THAT PARTISAN ELECTIONS HAVE HAD ON GREATER PIMA COUNTY." SALC MEMBERS HAVE A PERSONAL CONVERSATION WITH SECRETARY OF STATE CANDIDATES. IN SEPTEMBER SALC HOSTED THE CANDIDATES FOR ARIZONA SECRETARY OF STATE, INCUMBENT REPUBLICAN KEN BENNETT AND DEMOCRAT CHALLENGER CHRIS DESCHENE. BOTH CANDIDATES IMPRESSED SALC MEMBERS WITH THEIR KNOWLEDGE AND COMMITMENT. SALC MEMBERS HAVE A PERSONAL CONVERSATION WITH CANDIDATES FOR GOVERNOR OF ARIZONA. ON OCT. 13 SALC HOSTED GOV. JAN BREWER AND ATTORNEY GENERAL TERRY GODDARD, THE REPUBLICAN AND DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATES FOR GOVERNOR AT ITS MONTHLY MEETING. WHILE AGREEING THAT ARIZONA FACES TOUGH FINANCIAL CHALLENGES, THE CANDIDATES PRESENTED SALC MEMBERS WITH SHARPLY CONTRASTING VIEWS OF HOW TO MEET THOSE CHALLENGES. THE MEETING WAS DESIGNED TO MINIMIZE CAMPAIGN RHETORIC AND FORCE THE CANDIDATES TO DEAL WITH THE STATE'S ISSUES. THE TWO CANDIDATES APPEARED SEPARATELY AND SHARED THEIR VIEWS OPENLY WITH THE GROUP. SALC BOARD OF DIRECTORS NOMINATES FOUR CANDIDATES TO CIVIC LEADERSHIP ACADEMY. AT ITS OCT. 19 MEETING, THE SALC BOARD OF DIRECTORS APPROVED NOMINATING FOUR CANDIDATES TO ATTEND THE NEW CIVIC LEADERSHIP ACADEMY JOINTLY SPONSORED BY THE FLINN FOUNDATION AND THE THOMAS R. BROWN FOUNDATIONS. THIS PROGRAM TO DEVELOP ARIZONA'S FUTURE LEADERS GREW FROM THE BELIEF THAT "IT IS CRITICAL FOR ARIZONA TO HAVE STRONG FUTURE LEADERS WITH THE KNOWLEDGE, SKILLS, AND COMMITMENT TO WORK TOGETHER TO DEVISE AND CARRY OUT LONG-TERM, PRAGMATIC SOLUTIONS TO THE STATE'S PRESSING PROBLEMS." ***ARIZONA'S FISCAL CRISIS***SALC JOINS GPL IN AN ARIZONA STATE BUDGET ANALYSIS BY MCKINSEY & COMPANY. THE ANALYSIS SHOWS THAT THE DEFICIT IS DRIVEN BY REVENUE DECREASES AND IS STRUCTURAL, MEANING IT WILL CONTINUE TO BE IN THE $3.5 BILLION TO $4 BILLION RANGE OVER THE NEXT FOUR YEARS. GREATER PHOENIX LEADERSHIP BROUGHT MCKINSEY TO THE STATE. AT SALC'S MARCH 17 MEMBERSHIP MEETING, ECONOMIST ALAN MAGUIRE TOLD SALC MEMBERS THAT ARIZONA'S LEGISLATURE AND GOV. JAN BREWER HAVE TWO TYPES OF CHOICES AS THEY ATTEMPT TO SOLVE THE STATE'S BUDGET CRISIS: "TERRIBLE CHOICES AND HORRIBLE CHOICES." SALC ENDORSES AND SUPPORTS PROP 100 TEMPORARY 1 CENT SALES TAX INCREASE. SALC CONCLUDED THAT THE STATE OF ARIZONA CANNOT CUT, BORROW, TAX OR GROW OUT OF THE CURRENT BUDGET CRISIS. ARIZONA'S DEFICIT IS STRUCTURAL DEFICIT. IT MAY BE NECESSARY TO DO ALL FOUR. THE TEMPORARY SALES TAX IS THE ONLY OPTION AVAILABLE THAT WILL SUSTAIN EDUCATION EVEN AT A GREATLY REDUCED RATE. SALC TAKES A LEADERSHIP ROLE IN THE CAMPAIGN TO PASS THE PROP 100 SALES TAX INCREASE. WORKING WITH OTHER BUSINESS GROUPS, THE TEMPORARY SALES TAX INCREASE PASSED 64-36 IN A MAY 18 SPECIAL ELECTION. ***TUCSON GOVERNANCE*** SALC BOARD FULLY ENDORSES TUCSON CHARTER CHANGE COALITION. AFTER EXTENSIVE DISCUSSIONS WITH THE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL MEMBERS, CURRENT AND FORMER CITY MANAGERS, AND NATIONALLY KNOWN EXPERTS, THE TEAM MEMBERS FOCUSED INITIALLY ON KEY CHANGES TO THE CITY CHARTER AND THEN ON DEVELOPING A DIVERSE, EFFECTIVE COALITION. ON FEB. 4, TUCSON GOVERNANCE ACTION TEAM MEET WITH THE ARIZONA DAILY STAR. CO-CHAIRS SI SCHORR AND LISA LOVALLO JOINED SALC PRESIDENT RON SHOOPMAN IN A MEETING WITH THE ARIZONA DAILY STAR'S EDITORIAL BOARD AS A KEY STEP IN THE EFFORT TO BUILD PUBLIC SUPPORT FOR THE TEAM'S RECOMMENDATIONS FOR IMPROVING GOVERNMENT IN THE CITY OF TUCSON. THE THREE SALC LEADERS, WHO WERE ACCOMPANIED BY MAYOR BOB WALKUP, PRESENTED THE EDITORIAL BOARD WITH A SUMMARY OF 16 RECOMMENDATIONS FOR CHARTER AND POLICY CHANGES. ON MARCH 26, SALC SPONSORED A SPEECH BY FORMER PHOENIX CITY MANAGER FRANK FAIRBANKS - THE LEADER GIVEN MOST CREDIT FOR PHOENIX' REPEATED RECOGNITION AS ONE OF THE BEST-RUN CITIES IN THE WORLD. AFTERWARD, SALC PRESENTED ITS RECOMMENDATIONS FOR TUCSON CITY GOVERNMENT TO THE NEWLY FORMED TUCSON CHARTER CHANGE COALITION. ON APRIL 30, THE TUCSON CHARTER CHANGE COALITION HOLDS LARGE PUBLIC MEETING AT TCC. JOHN NALBANDIAN AND JIM SVARA, NATIONALLY RECOGNIZED EXPERTS ON CITY GOVERNMENT, WERE KEY SPEAKERS. PARTICIPANTS WERE INVITED FROM THE GENERAL PUBLIC AND WERE OFFERED OPPORTUNITIES TO ASK QUESTIONS OF THE EXPERTS AND TO EXPRESS THEIR VIEWS ABOUT THE PROPOSED RECOMMENDATIONS. ON MAY 20, TUCSON CHARTER CHANGE COALITION MADE FINAL DECISIONS ON CHARTER CHANGE RECOMMENDATIONS. OVER 150 PEOPLE ATTENDED THIS MEETING. ON JULY 7, THE TUCSON CITY COUNCIL VOTED 4-3 TO REFER AN INTEGRATED PACKAGE OF CHARTER CHANGES TO THE NOV. 2 BALLOT. THE SALC-INITIATED EFFORT TO IMPROVE TUCSON CITY GOVERNMENT EARNED THIS REFERRAL WHEN TUCSON'S MAYOR AND THREE COUNCIL MEMBERS SUPPORTED THE INTEGRATED PACKAGE OF CHANGES, WHILE THREE COUNCIL MEMBERS OPPOSED IT.CHARTER CHANGE COALITION GROWS IN NUMBERS AND DIVERSITY. THE CHANGES WERE BACKED BY THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY, THE TEA PARTY, KEY REPUBLICAN LEADERS, LABOR UNION LEADERS REPRESENTING 26 UNIONS IN SOUTHERN ARIZONA, BUSINESS ORGANIZATIONS, NONPROFIT EXECUTIVES AND ENVIRONMENTALISTS. NEVER BEFORE HAS SUCH A DIVERSE COALITION BEEN PUT TOGETHER TO WORK ON IMPROVING TUCSON CITY GOVERNMENT. SALC MEMBERS STEP UP WITH RESOURCES FOR THE PROP 401 CAMPAIGN. FUNDRAISING CHAIR MIKE HAMMOND AND SALC PRESIDENT RON SHOOPMAN, WITH THE HELP OF SALC MEMBERS KEN ABRAHAMS, LARRY ALDRICH, FRANCIE MERRYMAN, RICK MYERS AND KATHLEEN PERKINS LED THE SUCCESSFUL EFFORT TO RAISE $200,000 FOR THE PUBLIC CAMPAIGN. IN THESE TIMES OF A DEPRESSED ECONOMY AND ECONOMIC HARDSHIPS, SALC MEMBERS DESERVE GREAT CREDIT FOR MAKING THIS POSSIBLE. | Description |

| Description | ***P-20 FOCUS AREA*** AT THE APRIL 14 GENERAL MEMBERSHIP MEETING, ROGER VOGEL, CO-CHAIR OF THE P-20 FOCUS AREA, TOLD SALC MEMBERS THAT SALC IS TAKING THE LEAD IN TWO EDUCATIONAL AREAS. IN ADDITION TO OUR PREMIER TUCSON VALUES TEACHERS, THE EDUCATION BUSINESS BOARDROOM PROVIDES FOR LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT AND IDEA EXCHANGES BETWEEN SALC MEMBERS AND THE REGION'S SCHOOL DISTRICT SUPERINTENDENTS. AND SALC IS CAREFULLY MONITORING AND REACTING TO PROSPECTIVE LEGISLATION THAT AFFECTS P-20 EDUCATION IN PIMA COUNTY AND THE STATE. SALC BOARD APPROVES NEW EDUCATIONAL INITIATIVE TO PREPARE K-12 PRINCIPLES. AT ITS APRIL 20 MEETING, THE SALC BOARD APPROVED A NEW COLLABORATIVE EFFORT BETWEEN SALC AND THE UNIVERSITY OF ARIZONA TO PROVIDE PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT FOR SCHOOL PRINCIPALS. SALC VICE PRESIDENT JOHN PEDICONE PRESENTED THE PROPOSED PROGRAM, CALLED PEBL - PARTNERSHIP FOR EDUCATIONAL & BUSINESS LEADERSHIP - WHICH WOULD EXPAND SALC'S EDUCATION LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES TO INCLUDE SCHOOL PRINCIPALS. RESEARCH SHOWS HIGH QUALITY PRINCIPALS ARE KEY TO HIGH PERFORMING SCHOOLS, PEDICONE SAID.THE LITERACY FOR LIFE COALITION CONTINUES TO PROSPER WITH SALC INVOLVEMENT. MEL COHEN TOLD SALC MEMBERS AT THEIR APRIL MEETING THAT ALL THE LITERACY ORGANIZATIONS ARE WORKING WITH THE SOUTH PARK AVENUE AND SUNNYSIDE COMMUNITIES TO DETERMINE THEIR EDUCATIONAL NEEDS AND HOW BEST TO DELIVER HELP. THE COALITION IS ALSO FOCUSING ON LITERACY IN THE WORKPLACE. ON SEPTEMBER 16, SALC JOINED WITH OTHER LEADING STATE ORGANIZATIONS IN A NEW EFFORT TO COORDINATE SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY, ENGINEERING AND MATH (STEM) EDUCATION INITIATIVES STATEWIDE. TUCSON VALUES TEACHERS BOARD PRESIDENT COLLEEN NICCUM JOINED SALC PRESIDENT RON SHOOPMAN AND VICE PRESIDENT JOHN PEDICONE AT THE STATEWIDE MEETING AT WHICH THE PLAN WAS PRESENTED AND DISCUSSED. IT WAS VERY CLEAR THAT THE STEM PROJECT FITS WELL INTO SALC'S TUCSON VALUES TEACHERS INITIATIVE. ***TUCSON VALUES TEACHERS*** TUCSON VALUES TEACHERS (TVT) HAS BECOME THE MOST VISIBLE SYMBOL OF SALC'S STRONG EMPHASIS ON IMPROVING P-20 EDUCATION. THE SUCCESSFUL PROGRAM HAS ATTRACTED MULTI-YEAR FUNDING FROM THE LEADING STATE EDUCATIONAL FOUNDATIONS - THE RODEL CHARITABLE FOUNDATIONS OF ARIZONA AND HELIOS EDUCATION FOUNDATION. TVT LAUNCHES TEACHERS' VOICES ON ARIZONA PUBLIC MEDIA, ORIGINAL WEEKLY SEGMENTS THAT AIR ON ARIZONA SPOTLIGHT. EACH VOICES SEGMENT FEATURES TWO INDIVIDUALS INVOLVED IN SOME AREA OF EDUCATION IN THE REGION. FUNDED BY THE UNIVERSITY OF ARIZONA COLLEGE OF EDUCATION AND WELLS FARGO, THE PROGRAMMING - WHICH WILL AIR THROUGH MAY 2011 - IS BRINGING TO LIFE THE MANY WAYS TEACHERS INFLUENCE OUR LIVES. TVT INDUSTRY INTERNSHIPS FOR TEACHERS NEARLY DOUBLED THE NUMBER OF PARTICIPATING BUSINESSES AND TEACHERS AND EXPANDED THE PROGRAM INTO PHOENIX IN 2010. THE PROGRAM IS INTEGRATED INTO THE EDUCATION MASTER'S DEGREE PROGRAM AT THE UA AND PROVIDES PAID TEACHER SUMMER INTERNSHIPS AT BUSINESSES SUCH AS RAYTHEON, BEACH FLEISCHMAN, VANTE MEDICAL TECHNOLOGIES, AND SUNDT. THE PROGRAM IS FUNDED BY SCIENCE FOUNDATION ARIZONA, WITH MATCHING FUNDS FROM LOCAL BUSINESSES. SFAZ HAS REPORTED THAT THE NATIONAL SCIENCE FOUNDATION IS VERY INTERESTED IN EXPLORING WAYS TO EXPAND THE PROGRAM NATIONWIDE. TVT EXPANDED TUCSON SUPPLIES TEACHERS IN ITS SECOND YEAR BY COLLECTING AND DISTRIBUTING $71,000 IN SUPPLIES, AS COMPARED TO $20,000 COLLECTED IN 2009. THE PROGRAM IS DESIGNED TO PROVIDE TEACHERS WITH ADEQUATE CLASSROOM SUPPLIES SO THEY WILL NOT HAVE TO SPEND ON AVERAGE $800 OF THEIR OWN MONEY ON SUPPLIES. WALGREENS IS TVT'S CHIEF PARTNER IN THE EFFORT. IN SEPTEMBER, THE PROGRAM DELIVERED $71,000 WORTH OF SCHOOL SUPPLIES TO DISTRICT, PRIVATE AND CHARTER K-12 SCHOOLS THROUGHOUT SOUTHERN ARIZONA. "WE ARE THRILLED ABOUT THE SUCCESS OF THIS YEAR'S EFFORT," SAID BRUCE ORACH, WHO HEADED UP WALGREENS' INVOLVEMENT. "WE COLLECTED AND DELIVERED FOUR TIMES WHAT WE DID IN 2009." THE DRIVE THIS YEAR GOT A BIG BOOST FROM A $25,000 GRANT FROM THE COMMUNITY FINANCE CORPORATION (CFC). SALC VICE CHAIR MIKE HAMMOND CHAIRS CFC, AND CFC BOARD MEMBER KEN ABRAHAMS, ALSO A BOARD MEMBER OF SALC, PROPOSED THE GRANT TO TUCSON VALUES TEACHERS. TVT CO-HOSTS DEBATE FOR STATE SUPERINTENDENT OF EDUCATION. IN AUGUST, TUCSON VALUES TEACHERS JOINED WITH THE LEAGUE OF WOMEN VOTERS OF GREATER TUCSON, THE AMERICAN ASSOCIATION OF UNIVERSITY WOMEN, THE LITERACY FOR LIFE COALITION AND THE ARIZONA EDUCATION NETWORK TO SPONSOR A DEBATE AMONG ALL FIVE CANDIDATES FOR STATE SUPERINTENDENT OF PUBLIC INSTRUCTION. LOEWS VENTANA CANYON RESORT AND TUCSON VALUES TEACHERS TEAMED UP FOR EDUCATION BY HOSTING THE MRS. AMERICA PAGEANT. BENEFITS FROM THE AMERICAN BEAUTY RUNWAY SHOW WENT TO LOCAL TEACHERS WHO SIGNED UP WITH DONORSCHOOSE.ORG, A NATIONAL ONLINE CHARITY FOCUSED ON EDUCATION. THE RUNWAY SHOW IS PART OF THE ANNUAL WEEK LONG MRS. AMERICA PAGEANT, WHICH CULMINATED WITH THE CROWNING OF MRS. AMERICA 2011.***BUSINESS EDUCATION ROUNDTABLE, BER*** NEW LEADERSHIP TAKES REINS OF BER IN 2010. SALC MEMBER MICHAEL DURAN, REPRESENTING BUSINESS, AND DOUG WILSON, SUPERINTENDENT OF MARANA SCHOOLS, CO-CHAIR THE SALC SUPPORTED EDUCATION OUTREACH ACTION ARM FOR SOUTHERN ARIZONA. BER COMMITS TO SCHOOL FINANCE REFORM PROJECT, SUPPORT FOR TVT AND LEGISLATIVE ENGAGEMENT IN THE COMING SESSION. NEWLY ENERGIZED BER COMMITS TO A ROBUST SET OF PROJECTS FOR 2010 AND 2011. WORKING CLOSELY WITH PARTNERS FROM ABEC, TUCSON VALUES TEACHERS AND SALC THIS TUCSON WIDE BUSINESS EDUCATION PARTNERSHIP WILL TAKE DECISIVE ACTION IN SUPPORT OF EDUCATION. ***SCIENCE AND INNOVATION FOCUS AREA*** THE FIRST EVER MEETING OF THE NEW SALC SCIENCE AND INNOVATION FOCUS AREA IN AUGUST EXPLORED THE OPPORTUNITIES FOR SALC LEADERSHIP TO MAKE A POSITIVE IMPACT IN THE TUCSON REGION'S SCIENCE AND INNOVATION INDUSTRY. CO-CHAIRS HARRY GEORGE AND LESLIE TOLBERT LED A 90-MINUTE DISCUSSION TO EXPLORE THE ISSUES, CHALLENGES AND OPPORTUNITIES IN AN AREA OF GREAT STRATEGIC VALUE AND ECONOMIC POTENTIAL FOR TUCSON'S FUTURE. MEMBERS AGREED THAT THE PURPOSE OF SALC'S WORK IN THIS AREA MUST BE TO "CREATE ECONOMIC ACTIVITY."DURING A MINI-SWOT DISCUSSION THE GROUP AGREED THAT TUCSON HAS GREAT "STRENGTH" IN THE UNIVERSITY OF ARIZONA AND PIMA COMMUNITY COLLEGE. THESE INSTITUTIONS HAVE GREAT POTENTIAL TO DRIVE EVEN MORE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT THAN THEY ALREADY DO TODAY. VENTANA MEDICAL AND C-PATH ARE JUST TWO EXAMPLES OF COMPANIES THAT HAVE EMERGED IN OUR REGION, AND MANY MORE ARE POSSIBLE. THE TOP TWO "WEAKNESSES" IDENTIFIED WERE A LACK OF EARLY-STAGE FUNDING AND VENTURE CAPITAL FOR NEW COMPANIES AND A SOMEWHAT CONFUSING AND UNEVEN TAX STRUCTURE. THE SALC ENDORSED FUND OF FUNDS PROJECT PRESENTS AN EXCELLENT OPPORTUNITY FOR THE STATE TO BEGIN TO ADDRESS THE VENTURE FUND ISSUE. SALC CO-HOSTS VISIT BY ARPAE LEADER ARUN MUJUMDAR. SUPPORTING A PROGRAM LED BY JIM GENTILE OF RESEARCH CORPORATION, SALC MEMBERS JOINED THE NEW ENERGY AGENCY LEADER FOR A PRIVATE RECEPTION FOLLOWED BY AN INFORMATIVE AND MOTIVATIONAL SPEECH. LIKE DARPA, ARPAE WILL CONDUCT RESEARCH ON HIGH RISK, HIGH REWARD IDEAS TO MAKE OUR COUNTRY ENERGY INDEPENDENT. | Description |

| Description | ***BIOSCIENCES LEADERSHIP COUNCIL OF SOUTHERN ARIZONA, BLCSA*** ON JAN. 14 SOUTHERN ARIZONANS RECEIVED AN UPDATE ON THE PROGRESS OF THE BIOSCIENCES ROADMAP EFFORT, NOW IN ITS SIXTH YEAR OF STRONG SALC SUPPORT. IN SOUTHERN ARIZONA THE BIO EFFORT HAS BEEN DRIVEN BY SALC FROM ITS INCEPTION THROUGH THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE SOUTHERN ARIZONA ROADMAP AND MOST RECENTLY THROUGH THE FORMATION OF BIOSCIENCES LEADERSHIP COUNCIL OF SOUTHERN ARIZONA (BLCSA). CO-CHAIRED BY SALC MEMBERS HANY MASSARANY AND LESLIE TOLBERT, BLCSA HAS ATTRACTED THE MAJORITY OF THE REGION'S BIOSCIENCE LEADERSHIP FROM THE BUSINESS SECTOR AS WELL AS THE RESEARCH SECTOR. BLCSA SERVES AS TREO'S INDUSTRY ADVISORY COUNCIL FOR THEIR WORK IN GROWING THE INDUSTRY IN OUR REGION AND ALSO SERVES AS THE SINGLE TABLE AROUND WHICH BIOSCIENCE IS DRIVEN IN OUR REGION. "EVERY SIGNIFICANT BIO PLAYER IN THE REGION IS A MEMBER OF THE BIOSCIENCES LEADERSHIP COUNCIL OF SOUTHERN ARIZONA," SAID SALC PRESIDENT RON SHOOPMAN. RECOGNIZING ARIZONA'S STRIDES IN BUILDING A THRIVING BIOSCIENCES SECTOR, ARIZONA GOVERNOR JAN BREWER ISSUED AN OFFICIAL PROCLAMATION DECLARING WEDNESDAY, OCT. 27, 2010, AS ARIZONA BIOSCIENCE DAY. THE DESIGNATED DAY COINCIDED WITH ONE OF ARIZONA"S MAJOR ANNUAL BIOSCIENCE EVENTS, BIOFEST 2010. THE EVENT, AT THE CAMELBACK INN IN SCOTTSDALE, PROVIDED AWARDS TO INDIVIDUALS AND ORGANIZATIONS IN ARIZONA BIOSCIENCES, PLUS KEYNOTE PRESENTERS, A POSTER SESSION, AND AN EXHIBITION HALL. THE PROCLAMATION CITED THE BIOSCIENCES AS ONE OF THE FASTEST-GROWING SECTORS OF ARIZONA'S ECONOMY. DATA SHOW THAT BIOSCIENCE JOBS IN ARIZONA HAVE INCREASED BY 31 PERCENT SINCE THE ROADMAP WAS LAUNCHED IN 2002, COMPARED TO 12 PERCENT FOR THE U.S. THE JOBS ARE HIGH-PAYING, AVERAGING $55,750 COMPARED TO $41,920 FOR OVERALL PRIVATE SECTOR JOBS. BLCSA HELD THE FIRST EVER SOUTHERN ARIZONA CANDIDATE FORUM FOR BIOSCIENCE. CANDIDATES LEARNED THAT BIOSCIENCE IS GROWING DRAMATICALLY IN ARIZONA, WITH THE NUMBER OF JOBS UP 31 PERCENT, THE NUMBER OF FIRMS UP 32 PERCENT, AND WAGES UP 43 PERCENT IN THE SIX YEARS FROM 2002 TO 2008, ACCORDING TO WALT PLOSILA OF BATTELLE MEMORIAL INSTITUTE. PLOSILA SPOKE AT THE UA'S BIO5 INSTITUTE IN JUNE AS 60 PEOPLE GATHERED TO TALK ABOUT BIOSCIENCE AND ITS IMPACT ON ARIZONA TODAY AND IN THE FUTURE. HALF OF THE ATTENDEES WERE CANDIDATES FOR STATEWIDE OFFICE FROM SOUTHERN ARIZONA AND THE OTHER HALF WERE MEMBERS OF THE SALC-LED BIOSCIENCES LEADERSHIP COUNCIL OF SOUTHERN ARIZONA (BLCSA). ***SCIENCE FOUNDATION ARIZONA, SFAZ*** SALC MEMBERS PROUDLY CONTINUE THEIR SUPPORT OF SCIENCE FOUNDATION ARIZONA. AS ONE OF OUR TOP PRIORITY PROJECTS, MEMBERS PROVIDE RESOURCES TO RUN THE FOUNDATION AS MEMBERS AND STAFF WORK WITH THE GOVERNOR AND LEGISLATORS TO ENSURE FUTURE FUNDING IS MADE AVAILABLE FOR THIS HIGHLY EFFECTIVE PROGRAM. ON FEB. 17, BATTELLE MEMORIAL INSTITUTE'S ANNUAL REPORT CARD ON ARIZONA'S TECHNOLOGY SECTOR AND THE CONTRIBUTIONS OF SCIENCE FOUNDATION ARIZONA FOUND THAT AS THE RECESSION GOT UNDERWAY IN 2007-2008 AND ARIZONA JOINED THE REST OF THE COUNTRY IN JOB LOSSES AND RISING UNEMPLOYMENT, ARIZONA'S HIGH-TECH ECONOMY BUCKED THE TREND AND ADDED JOBS IN THREE OF FIVE KEY INDUSTRIES. THE STUDY INDICATES THAT ARIZONA'S ECONOMY BENEFITS GREATLY FROM ITS TECHNOLOGY SECTOR AND WOULD BE IN FAR WORSE CONDITION NOW WERE IT NOT FOR INVESTMENT IN KNOWLEDGE-BASED INDUSTRIES AND RESEARCH. BATTELLE FOUND THAT SCIENCE FOUNDATION ARIZONA'S GRANTS ARE ESPECIALLY EFFECTIVE IN GENERATING PATENTS AND LICENSES FROM THE UNIVERSITIES AND OTHER NONPROFIT RESEARCH INSTITUTIONS. SFAZ-GENERATED PROJECTS PRODUCED ONE PATENT FOR EVERY $1.8 MILLION IN RESEARCH FUNDING, COMPARED TO THE TOTAL UNIVERSITY-WIDE AVERAGE OF ONE PATENT FOR EVERY $12.5 MILLION IN RESEARCH FUNDING. SIMILARLY, SFAZ GRANTS PRODUCED SUBSTANTIALLY MORE TECHNOLOGY LICENSES THAN OVERALL UNIVERSITY RESEARCH. A STRATEGIC RESEARCH GRANT FROM SCIENCE FOUNDATION ARIZONA IS MAKING IT POSSIBLE FOR THE UA INSTITUTE OF MINERAL RESOURCES TO BUILD A NEW FACILITY FOR MINE SAFETY TRAINING AND OTHER USES. THE NEW INSTITUTE, A MULTI-MILLION DOLLAR COLLABORATION BETWEEN THE UA AND SEVERAL INDUSTRY PARTNERS, IS DEVELOPING THE UA'S SAN XAVIER MINING LABORATORY INTO ONE OF THE WORLD'S PREMIER TEST SITES FOR SAFER UNDERGROUND MINING TECHNOLOGIES. "THIS IS TANGIBLE PROOF THAT SCIENCE FOUNDATION ARIZONA IS POSITIVELY IMPACTING THE ECONOMY OF SOUTHERN ARIZONA AND CREATING JOBS," SAID MINING EXPERT GARY JONES. SCIENCE FOUNDATION ARIZONA IS CREATING JOBS, BRINGING IN FINANCING AND SPURRING INNOVATION, ACCORDING TO A REPORT COMPILED BY THE BATTELLE TECHNOLOGY PARTNERSHIP PRACTICE. THE REPORT FOUND THAT SFAZS ECONOMIC IMPACT IS BECOMING INCREASINGLY SIGNIFICANT, WITH SOUTHERN ARIZONA IN PARTICULAR BENEFITING FROM THE PUBLIC-PRIVATE PARTNERSHIP BETWEEN BUSINESS AND THE STATE. IN ITS FIRST THREE YEARS OF OPERATION, SFAZ AWARDED $50 MILLION IN RESEARCH GRANTS, WHICH IN TURN GENERATED $152 MILLION ADDITIONAL FUNDING FROM INDUSTRY AND GOVERNMENT SOURCES.****INFRASTRUCTURE FOCUS AREA**** ***TUCSON REGIONAL WATER COALITION, TRWC*** IN JANUARY, THE TUCSON REGIONAL WATER COALITION (TRWC), LED BY SALC, PRESENTED FINAL COMMENTS ON THE JOINT CITY-COUNTY WATER STUDY TO THE PIMA COUNTY BOARD OF SUPERVISORS. LED BY KEN ABRAHAMS, THE GROUP HAS BEEN THE SOLE BUSINESS VOICE ON WATER AS THE CITY OF TUCSON AND PIMA COUNTY CONDUCTED OVER 30 PUBLIC MEETINGS, GATHERING DATA ON INFRASTRUCTURE AND CITIZEN INPUT ON FUTURE WATER POLICY ISSUES. TRWC CONTINUES TO ENGAGE LOCAL GOVERNMENTS ON THE ISSUE OF WATER AND ITS ROLE IN ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT BY PARTICIPATING IN A SERIES OF REGIONAL WATER ASSESSMENT THINK TANK SESSIONS. ***RTA & ADOT*** SALC MEMBER STEVE CHRISTY SERVES AS SALC'S REPRESENTATIVE ON THE ADOT BOARD OF DIRECTORS. EARLY IN THIS NEW ASSIGNMENT, STEVE RECOGNIZED A SIGNIFICANT THREAT TO REMOVE FUNDING FOR AN ESSENTIAL I-10 WIDENING PROJECT. STEVE ACTED SWIFTLY WITH SALC SUPPORT AND REVERSED THIS POTENTIALLY DEVASTATING DECISION. THE REGIONAL TRANSPORTATION AUTHORITY (RTA) PROJECT WAS LED VIRTUALLY FROM INCEPTION TO ITS PASSAGE IN A LANDMARK VICTORY IN MAY OF 2006 BY SALC MEMBERS. A RECENT STRING OF ACCUSATIONS AND CONTROVERSY BECAME PUBLIC WHEN AN ARIZONA DAILY STAR ARTICLE ON JULY 27 MADE SERIOUS ACCUSATIONS OF MISMANAGEMENT OF THE RTA. THIS ARTICLE WAS FOLLOWED BY A PUBLIC SPECTACLE AT A TUCSON CITY COUNCIL MEETING DURING WHICH TEMPERS FLARED AND THE PLAN TO TRANSFER THE SUN TRAN BUS SYSTEM TO THE RTA FELL APART. THAT MEETING WAS FOLLOWED BY AN EMERGENCY MEETING OF THE RTA BOARD, DURING WHICH THE OFFER TO ASSUME CONTROL OF THE BUS SYSTEM WAS TAKEN OFF THE TABLE. THE SALC INFRASTRUCTURE FOCUS AREA INVITED RTA/ PAG DIRECTOR GARY HAYES TO MEET WITH SALC MEMBERS CONCERNED WITH THE FUTURE OF THE RTA. THE MEETING WAS HELD ON AUGUST 18. THE ONLY LIGHT AT THE END OF THE TUNNEL APPEARS TO BE THAT THE PROBLEMS FACING THE RTA CAN BE RESOLVED WITHOUT IMPACTING THE PROMISES MADE TO THE TAXPAYERS OF PIMA COUNTY. WE MUST REMEMBER THAT WE ARE ONLY 4 YEARS INTO A 20-YEAR PROGRAM. SALC CONTINUES TO CAREFULLY MONITOR THE RTA. SALC SENDS A LETTER TO THE RTA BOARD STATING THE GROUP'S DISSATISFACTION WITH CURRENT EVENTS AND OFFERING OUR PERSONAL INVOLVEMENT AND HELP TO RESOLVE THE ISSUES AND ENSURE THAT THE RTA MEETS ALL OF ITS OBLIGATIONS. | Description |
