Economic Development Director to speak at City Club March 16

The new Director of Tacoma’s Economic Development Division, Mr. Ryan Petty, will address The City Club of Tacoma at a noon luncheon on March 16, 2005, held at The Tacoma Club in the Wells Fargo Tower.  

Ryan Petty, with six months under his belt as the Director of Tacoma’s Economic Development Division, will share the City of Tacoma’s goals and plans for ensuring Tacoma’s prosperity.  The Economic Development Division’s scope of responsibility is daunting (growth management, historic preservation, arts, culture and tourism, business retention and recruitment, business districts and neighborhood centers).  Can the team members live up to the goals that they have established?  Or is it Mission Impossible with the City’s budget constraints?  Find out by attending this luncheon.
