Tempe, Chandler Express Interest in Williams...

Tempe, Chandler express interest in Williams, from the East Valley Tribune, reports that if recent activity is any indication, Williams Gateway airport might finally have enough support to fulfill its potential as an alternative to Phoenix Sky Harbor and as a catalyst for commercial growth. Last month, Phoenix jumped on board as a partner in the development of Williams. Since then, Chandler, Tempe and Maricopa County have expressed interest in joining Mesa, Gilbert, Queen Creek and the Gila River Indian Community as airport leaders. Most civic leaders have praised the vision of a reliever airport similar to those in Southern California and a new Southeast Valley economic hub that could be home to more than 100,000 jobs.
