Glendale Mayor Meet & Greet

Description

Mayor Jerry P. Weiers and Economic Development Deputy Director Lori German will be joining us to give us a short presentation and information with all that is happening with the City of Glendale.

BIO: Glendale Mayor Jerry P. Weiers was born in South Dakota and moved to Phoenix as a child. As a young boy he learned the value of a dollar, hard work and honesty. He has held onto these core values throughout his life as a husband, parent, small business owner and public servant serving four terms in the Arizona House of Representatives before becoming Mayor of Glendale in 2012.

Mayor Weiers has been a lifelong advocate for the military and veterans and dedicates endless hours to providing resources and support for those who serve and have served. With over four decades of experience as a small business owner, Mayor Weiers provides the public sector with insight and knowledge based on a desire to reduce the bureaucratic red tape that can hinder small businesses.

Mayor Weiers is proud of his reputation as a man of his word and down-to-earth guy who enjoys talking with people, solving problems, riding his motorcycle and flying his plane. He is an avid hunter and lifelong conservationist who understands the joys and trials of living the American dream of owning your own business. This perspective has served Glendale citizens well, as he continues to foster a culture of positive public-private partnerships which help the city grow and make a positive difference in people's lives. His priority initiatives are: fiscal responsibility, public safety, economic development, reducing homelessness, supporting and advocating for Luke Air Force Base, military installations and veterans.
