Green Valley Sahuarita Chamber of Commerce Supports Regional Transportation Plan Renewal

Green Valley, AZ — The Green Valley Sahuarita Chamber of Commerce announced today that its Board of Directors has voted to support the Pima Association of Governments (PAG) / Regional Transportation Authority (RTA) Regional Transportation Plan, which will appear on the March 2026 ballot as a 20-year renewal of the existing half-cent sales tax.

The Chamber’s Board of Directors received a detailed presentation on the proposed plan and its long-term investments in regional transportation infrastructure, safety improvements, and economic mobility across Pima County, including benefits to the Green Valley and Sahuarita communities.

“Reliable transportation infrastructure is essential to a strong business environment and a thriving community,” said Rebecca Willer, Chair of the Board of Directors. “After reviewing the plan and its projected impacts, our Board voted to support the renewal as a tool to help sustain economic growth, improve safety, and address long-term transportation needs in our region.”

The Regional Transportation Plan would continue funding for roadway improvements, congestion mitigation, safety enhancements, and multi-modal transportation projects over the next two decades, without increasing the current tax rate.

The Green Valley Sahuarita Chamber of Commerce encourages its members and the broader community to review the details of the plan and participate in the March 10, 2026 election.
