| Description | Calling it key to economic development, Gov. Jan Brewer on Wednesday proposed abolishing the state Department of Commerce and replacing it with what she describes as a quasi-public agency.
The proposal would create an Arizona Commerce Authority to head the state’s efforts to convince firms to move and expand here. The authority would be governed by a board of directors, with the governor as its chair and 14 chief executives, business, education and community leaders making up the rest of the panel.
Brewer said the Department of Commerce has been particularly ineffective in promoting economic development. |
