| Info | Peggy Rubach will present in the panel Funding Approaches and Trends, with the topic of Win That Grant. The former two-term Mayor of Mesa, Arizona, Ms. Rubach knows how to develop winning campaigns...from nonprofit projects and local council and school board races to serving as John McCain's (now U.S. Senator McCain) first campaign manager. She brings several decades of fund-raising and grant garnering experience to the project funding table.
Peggy is now the Multimodal Planner for the Maricopa County Department of Transportation. As Director of the Third Annual World Congress on Intelligent Transport Systems, Peggy coordinated and obtained underwriting for an international high tech conference with over 5,000 participants from 38 countries.
While Special Assistant to the Director at the Arizona Department of Transportation, she received a USDOTFHWA Innovative Finance Award for her team efforts fostering the development of a state infrastructure bank and the lease or licensing of state rights of way.
"Right now I'm working on putting partnerships together to get federal bridge funds and future Transportation Enhancement funds to rehab a 1926 9-span truss bridge that's been on the National Historic Register since 1981," Peggy reports. "I know that's not real old to a lot of you, but in Arizona, it is. This project has all the challenges: lead paint, possible endangered species, archeological sites and no real champions...yet."
Peggy is also looking forward to doing some traveling, with a trip to Montana with my sister to visit some family history locations with stops at as many National Parks as possible. "I want to visit all the beautiful old lodges, for at least a drink or meal," she writes. "I may swing through Colorado to check up on how one of my past projects, the Pikes Peak Preservation, is progressing. Yellowstone, Grand Tetons, Canyonlands, here I come! "
"This will be my Pro Walk/Pro Bike Conference. So I'm really psyched!"
