Palm Valley community is located in the city of Goodyear, Arizona.
It has recently been proposed that an expansion of the Perryville Prison be built in the city of Goodyear. Many in the Palm Valley community, and others in the city of Goodyear oppose this expansion, and the city of Goodyear urges you to voice your opinion to the Department of Corrections. City Council also voted unanimously (6-0) against the prison's expansion in hopes it will make the city of Goodyear and it's resident's concerns known. Goodyear hopes it will ultimately help influence the final decision.
Goodyear believes these to be the negative impacts of building a prison in the city:
- Real property values in the surrounding areas will plummet.
- Among those impacted will be the high-end resort-style master planned Robson community of PebbleCreek, as well as property that is currently available for development.
- The interchange at I-10 and Loop 303 will be one of the busiest freeway interchanges in the state and all property in the area will be primed for high quality development
- Palm Valley 303, a 1,600-acre world class business park, is strategically located just north of the interchange and is already attracting quality companies such as Sub-Zero.
- Businesses are looking for visible employment corridors like Loop 303 at I-10 that promote:
- high quality corporate image
- desirable lifestyle
- stable workforce
- Companies considering moving to the high-end Palm Valley 303 complex will have to travel north from I-10, past an even larger, more imposing prison complex.
- The city's image will deteriorate and strong companies will take their business elsewhere and that will mean a loss of jobs for the residents of Goodyear.
The City of Goodyear wants your voices to be heard and strongly urges you to contact the Department of Corrections by September 16th to share your objections and help to support the growth of the Palm Valley community. For more info on how to have your voice heard, visit Goodyear,AZ.com.
