A 15-member delegation from Phoenix toured Hacienda Business Park last week "to see first-hand how to plan and build a major business park the right way," explained Joseph M. Domzalski, chief administrator of Sky Harbor Business Center in Phoenix.

Representatives from the city of Phoenix, the Phoenix Economic Growth Council and BRW, Inc., a consulting firm working with the city on the Sky Harbor project, met with Callahan-Pentz Properties Marketing Director Mark Sweeney, Prudential Owner's Representative George Deeter and others within the Hacienda Business Park organization.

The three-hour meeting included discussions on the planning and preparation of the master planning process, marketing, Transportation Systems Management (TSM), on-site child care and how to work in concert with the needs of residents and the city itself.

At the end of the meeting, the delegation boarded a Hacienda shuttle bus for a tour of the business park and the north Pleasanton area.

Said Phoenix Planning Director Rick Counts after the tour, "The city of Pleasanton should be very proud of the results of its hard work and planning. It's quite apparent that the city has maintained high standards in planning and design."
