Return Reference Explanation
FORM 990, PART III, LINE 1, MISSION STATEMENT THE MISSION OF SALC IS TO IMPROVE GREATER TUCSON AND THE STATE OF ARIZONA BY BRINGING TOGETHER RESOURCES AND LEADERSHIP TO CREATE ACTION THAT WILL ENHANCE THE ECONOMIC CLIMATE AND QUALITY OF LIFE IN OUR COMMUNITIES BY ATTRACTING, RETAINING, AND GROWING HIGH QUALITY, HIGH WAGE JOBS.
FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4A, DESCRIPTION OF PROGRAM SERVICE SALC GROWTH & EXPANSION SALC WELCOMED 14 NEW MEMBERS IN 2018. SALC'S CEO, RON SHOOPMAN, DEPARTED TO CHAIR THE ARIZONA BOARD OF REGENTS, AS TED MAXWELL MOVED FROM PRESIDENT TO PRESIDENT & CEO. 2018 LEGISLATIVE IMPACT -SALC WAS THE FIRST BUSINESS ORGANIZATION IN THE STATE TO SUPPORT LEGISLATIVE ACTION TO EXTEND FUNDING FOR EDUCATION FROM PROPOSITION 301. THE LEGISLATION WAS PASSED BY THE LEGISLATURE AND SIGNED INTO LAW BY THE GOVERNOR. THIS EXTENSION ELIMINATES THE FISCAL CLIFF THAT OUR EDUCATION SYSTEM WAS FACING BECAUSE THE PROP 301 FUNDING WAS SET TO EXPIRE IN 2021. IT NOW HAS BEEN EXTENDED FOR 20 YEARS TO 2041. -SALC WAS A STRONG ADVOCATE OF THE LEGISLATION TO EXTEND THE RIO NUEVO MULTIPURPOSE FACILITIES DISTRICT EXTENSION TO 2035, WHICH PASSED THE LEGISLATURE AND WAS SIGNED BY THE GOVERNOR. -SALC WAS PART OF A BROAD COLLABORATIVE EFFORT TO INCREASE THE FUNDING LEVEL AUTHORIZED FOR THE PIMA COUNTY REGIONAL TRANSPORTATION AUTHORITY. SALC MEMBER COLLABORATION AND ENGAGEMENT WITH ELECTED OFFICIALS ON THIS PIECE OF LEGISLATION WAS SIGNIFICANT. WHILE IT WAS NOT SUCCESSFUL DUE PREDOMINATELY TO CONCERNS OVER HOW MARICOPA COUNTY WOULD SPEND ITS RTA MONEY, THE RELATIONSHIPS BUILT WITH LEGISLATORS AND PARTNERS THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE SUN CORRIDOR WILL PAY SIGNIFICANT DIVIDENDS IN THE FUTURE. -SALC'S SUPPORT AND EFFORTS ON INFRASTRUCTURE LEGISLATION DID FIND SUCCESS WITH THE PASSAGE OF A LAW CREATING A FUNDING SOURCE FOR THE DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC SAFETY. WITH THIS NEW REVENUE STREAM AVAILABLE TO FUND DPS, THE HURF SWEEPS IN THE PAST SHOULD NOT BE NECESSARY AND MORE OF THOSE FUNDS SHOULD BE DISTRIBUTED TO THE COUNTY AND LOCAL MUNICIPALITIES FOR USE ON ROADS. -ANOTHER SUCCESSFUL LEGISLATIVE EFFORT SUPPORTED BY SALC WAS THE REAUTHORIZATION OF THE ARIZONA COMMERCE AUTHORITY. BALLOT POSITIONS AND RESULTS IN 2018 -SALC USED ITS LEADERSHIP FUND TO CONTRIBUTE $25,000 TO THE CAMPAIGN TO PASS TUCSON'S PROP 407 CITY BOND FOR PARKS & CONNECTIONS, WHICH WOULD CREATE MANY PARK IMPROVEMENTS, AND WOULD CONNECT PARKS WITH BICYCLE AND WALKING ROUTES AND THE LOOP. THE INITIATIVE PASSED CONVINCINGLY. -SALC OPPOSED PROP 126, THE PROHIBIT NEW OR INCREASED TAXES ON SERVICES INITIATIVE, WHICH WOULD AMEND THE ARIZONA CONSTITUTION TO PROHIBIT STATE & LOCAL GOVERNMENTS FROM IMPOSING ANY TRANSACTION-BASED TAXES ON SERVICES OR USING A GOVERNMENTAL CHARTER TO LEVY THESE TYPES OF TAXES. ARIZONA VOTERS, HOWEVER, OVERWHELMINGLY PASSED PROP 126. -SALC OPPOSED PROP 127, CLEAN ENERGY FOR A HEALTHY ARIZONA, HOLDING A PRESS CONFERENCE IN OCTOBER. THE PROPOSITION WOULD LIMIT THE AUTHORITY OF ELECTED ARIZONA CORPORATION COMMISSION MEMBERS TO OVERSEE POWER PROVIDERS, RESULTING IN SIGNIFICANT INCREASES IN RESIDENTIAL AND COMMERCIAL COSTS OF POWER. THE PROPOSITION WOULD IMPACT THOSE IN OR NEAR THE POVERTY LEVEL THE MOST, AND WAS NOT CONSISTENT IN ITS APPLICATION. ARIZONA VOTERS AGREED AND THE INITIATIVE WAS SOUNDLY DEFEATED. -SALC OPPOSED PROP 305, EMPOWERMENT SCHOLARSHIP ACCOUNTS, PRIMARILY BECAUSE OF THE AMOUNT OF FUNDING IT COULD POTENTIALLY REMOVE FROM OUR CURRENT PUBLIC EDUCATION SYSTEM ANNUALLY. PROP. 305 WAS SOUNDLY DEFEATED BY VOTERS. -SALC CONTRIBUTED $25,000 TO PROP 463, COUNTY ROAD BONDS. THIS WOULD HAVE PROVIDED FUNDING TO FIX ROADS BUT WAS SOUNDLY DEFEATED BY VOTERS. DEFEAT OF THIS PROPOSITION WILL PUT ADDITIONAL PRESSURE ON RENEWAL OF THE RTA AS A WAY TO ADDRESS OUR REGION'S CRUMBLING ROADS. KEY PARTNERSHIPS & COLLABORATIONS IN 2018 SALC IS A REGION AND STATEWIDE COLLABORATION LEADER. THE FOLLOWING COLLABORATIONS AND PARTNERSHIPS RESULTED IN SIGNIFICANT PROGRESS DURING 2018: -TUCSON VALUES TEACHERS & SALC EDUCATION PARTNERSHIP. -CEO GROUP PARTNERSHIP - GREATER PHOENIX LEADERSHIP (GPL), NORTHERN ARIZONA LEADERSHIP ALLIANCE (NALA), AND SALC. -SUN CORRIDOR JOINED SALC, THE COMMUNITY FOUNDATION FOR SOUTHERN ARIZONA, THE UNIVERSITY OF ARIZONA AND PIMA ASSOCIATION OF GOVERNMENTS AS FULL PARTNERS IN SPONSORING THE MAP (MAKING ACTION POSSIBLE) DASHBOARD PROJECT. -THE SALC-CREATED TUCSON BUSINESS ALLIANCE (TBA). -SALC SUPPORTED STARTUP TUCSON WITH A 2018 GRANT. -SOUTHERN ARIZONA DEFENSE ALLIANCE (SADA) IS A COLLABORATION INCLUDING THE DM50, SALC, AND THE AREA'S OTHER LEADING BUSINESS ORGANIZATIONS. -ARIZONA BIOSCIENCE BOARD (ABB), A GROUP LED BY CEOS IN MULTIPLE INDUSTRIES. -SALC LED THE BIOSCIENCES LEADERSHIP COUNCIL OF SOUTHERN ARIZONA (BLCSA) IN PARTNERSHIP WITH SUN CORRIDOR INC. -SALC CONTINUES ITS COLLABORATIONS WITH THE FLINN FOUNDATION, UNIVERSITY OF ARIZONA AND THE ARIZONA COMMERCE AUTHORITY, JOINTLY HOLDING THE INNOVATION ECONOMY FORUM IN SEPTEMBER. -SALC LEADS THE TUCSON REGIONAL WATER COALITION (TRWC). -SALC LEADS THE BUSINESS PARTNERS FOR TRADE AND TRANSPORTATION (BPTT). -TUCSON YOUNG PROFESSIONALS (TYP) & THE FLINN BROWN FELLOWS CONTINUED AS SALC'S PREMIER LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMS. TYP'S CURRENT PRESIDENT, DILLON WALKER, FILLS A SEAT ON THE SALC BOARD RESERVED FOR THE PRESIDENT OF TYP. MANY OF THE FLINN BROWN FELLOWS IN SOUTHERN ARIZONA ENJOY A ONE YEAR ASSOCIATE MEMBERSHIP IN SALC. SALC'S P-20 FOCUS AREA -WHEN SALC TOOK A "NO" POSITION ON PROP 204, STRONG START TUCSON, WE REMINDED THE COMMUNITY THAT SALC STRONGLY SUPPORTS HIGH-QUALITY EARLY CHILDHOOD EDUCATION (ECE). ONE SUCH WAY MAY BE THROUGH AN EXPANSION OF FIRST THINGS FIRST (FTF). IN FEBRUARY, SALC MET WITH LEADERS FROM FTF TO GATHER THE FACTS WE NEED IN ORDER TO DETERMINE WHETHER ITS FRAMEWORK AND SUCCESSFUL PROGRAMMING CAN BE EXPANDED TO REACH MORE CHILDREN IN OUR COMMUNITY WITH LOCAL FUNDING AND AT WHAT COST. -SOME SALC MEMBERS ARE PARTICIPATING IN A COLLABORATIVE COMMUNITY EFFORT TO CREATE A WORKABLE SOLUTION FOR PIMA COUNTY EARLY CHILDHOOD DEVELOPMENT. THEY HOPE TO IDENTIFY A FUNDING SOURCE WHICH WILL BE BOTH SUSTAINABLE AND ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMMUNITY. A PROPOSAL SHOULD BE READY IN EARLY 2019. -UA PRESIDENT AND SALC MEMBER ROBERT ROBBINS LAUNCHED A PROCESS TO SHAPE THE FUTURE OF THE UNIVERSITY OF ARIZONA AS WELL AS THAT OF THE COMMUNITY. THROUGH A SURVEY, SALC MEMBERS ASSISTED IN PLANNING THE FUTURE OF UA AND ITS ROLE AS AN EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTION AND AN ECONOMIC DRIVER OF TUCSON'S ECONOMY. THE PLAN IS IN THE FINAL STAGES AND SHOULD BE IN PLACE IN 2019. -SALC OPPOSED THE INVEST IN ED INITIATIVE BASED ON THE IMPACT OF THE TAX INCREASE ON SMALL BUSINESSES, HIGH DEMAND EARNERS, AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT. HOWEVER, IT DID NOT REACH THE BALLOT BECAUSE THE ARIZONA SUPREME COURT REMOVED IT, RULING THAT ITS DESCRIPTION "DID NOT ACCURATELY REPRESENT THE INCREASED TAX BURDEN ON THE AFFECTED CLASSES OF TAXPAYERS." -SOME SALC MEMBERS AND STAFF CONTINUED THEIR PARTICIPATION IN MONTHLY "KITCHEN CABINET" MEETINGS WITH TUSD SUPERINTENDENT GABRIEL TRUJILLO.
FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4A SALC REMAINS FULLY COMMITTED TO OUR CLOSE PARTNERSHIP WITH TUCSON VALUES TEACHERS (TVT). -MANY SALC MEMBERS ATTENDED TVT'S BUSINESS LEADERS BREAKFAST IN MARCH AND VIEWED A TRAILER FOR THE NEW TVT DOCUMENTARY SHORT FILM THAT PROVIDES AN INSIDE LOOK AT THE REWARDS AND CHALLENGES FACED BY ARIZONA TEACHERS BOTH INSIDE AND OUTSIDE THE CLASSROOM.

THE PIMA FEDERAL GOLF CLASSIC IS A GOLF EXPERIENCE DESIGNED TO RAISE FUNDS TO PURCHASE SUPPLIES FOR AREA SCHOOLS THROUGH TVT'S ANNUAL SUPPLY DRIVE. SINCE 2013, TVT HAS RAISED $317,000 FOR SUPPLIES. -SALC CONTRIBUTED $10,000 AND MANY SALC MEMBERS AND COMMUNITY PARTNERS ATTENDED A SEPTEMBER 20 TVT 10TH ANNIVERSARY LET'S TALK ED EVENT AT THE TUCSON CONVENTION CENTER.

THE EVENING WAS CAPPED OFF WITH THE PRESENTATION OF THE RAYTHEON LEADERS IN EDUCATION AWARD HONORING THREE EXCEPTIONAL PIMA COUNTY TEACHERS WITH $2,500 CASH AWARDS EACH AND A MATCHING GRANT FOR THEIR SCHOOLS. INFRASTRUCTURE FOCUS AREA SALC REMAINED ENGAGED IN THE INFRASTRUCTURE ARENA WITH OTHER INFRASTRUCTURE SUPPORTERS INCLUDING OUR BUSINESS PARTNERS FOR TRADE AND TRANSPORTATION GROUP LOCALLY, AS WELL AS THE STATEWIDE TRANSPORTATION BUSINESS PARTNERS. WHILE THE MAJORITY OF ENGAGEMENTS FOR INFRASTRUCTURE FOCUS AREA MEMBERS OCCUR DURING THE LEGISLATIVE SESSION, COLLABORATION OVER THE YEARS AND THROUGHOUT 2018 MADE AN IMPACT. -SALC MEMBER MIKE HAMMOND REPRESENTS SOUTHERN ARIZONA ON THE ARIZONA STATE TRANSPORTATION BOARD. THIS YEAR THE BOARD WAS ABLE TO MOVE THE FULL BUILD OUT OF SR-189 IN THE FIVE YEAR MASTER PLAN. THIS EFFORT HAD BEEN CHAMPIONED BY STATEWIDE ORGANIZATIONS INCLUDING SALC AS THE MOST IMPORTANT INFRASTRUCTURE IMPROVEMENT FOR SUPPORTING INTERNATIONAL TRADE AND TRANSPORTATION IN OUR STATE. -BOTH PROP 407 AND PROP 463 WERE PUT THROUGH INFRASTRUCTURE FOCUS AREA SCRUTINY PRIOR TO SALC'S BOARD DECISION TO SUPPORT THEM. AT THE SAME MEETING, THE FOCUS AREA MEMBERS WERE EXPOSED TO A POTENTIAL COMMUTER TRAIN LINKING TUCSON AND PHOENIX WITH PASSENGER RAIL. ALL ABOARD ARIZONA IS WORKING WITH POTENTIAL OUTSIDE PRIVATE FUNDING TO FINANCE AND HELP MOVE THIS LONG-TERM PROJECT FORWARD. -THE REGIONAL TRANSPORTATION AUTHORITY HAS RECONVENED THE CITIZEN'S ADVISORY COMMITTEE (CAC) IN ANTICIPATION OF EVENTUAL REAUTHORIZATION EFFORTS.
