SRP has dedicated internal leadership and staff that are committed to assisting the communities in this transition to a new economy. The team assembled includes staff who have worked on a previous CCT, as well as those with experience in economic analysis, economic development, education, entrepreneurial activity, legal, natural resources, government affairs and other disciplines. SRP has also partnered with a small group of external experts and Arizona State University to help the community think through, and act on, the most important challenges to overcome to shape the future of the community. For example, the team supported several broadband infrastructure grant applications for the region. While broadband has been a major focus of work, there are also other areas like transportation, education, workforce development and housing that are targeted areas for development.
