Phoenix Vice Mayor Greg Stanton has been named to the East Valley Partnership

to join the coalition of business and community leaders dedicated to the economic
development and promotion of the region.
"We are quite pleased with Vice Mayor Stanton's election to the EVP Board
of Directors," said Roc Arnett, EVP President and CEO. "Between his tremendous
