Mesa has one of those zones it requested for a commercial corridor near Phoenix-Mesa Gateway Airport.CUT OUT OF ZONESSome of metro Phoenix's poorest areas qualified as zones but were not chosen, including Guadalupe, Maryvale, Sun City and Tolleson.Not every community made the cut because Arizona cities had to be home to at least 10,000 people to get a zone, according to the Commerce Authority.Tolleson, with a population of 7,052 along Interstate 10 in the southwest Valley, reached out to Maricopa County to see whether it could submit recommendations through the county but did not hear back, said Jason Earp, the city’s economic development director.However, Earp said Tolleson already is a huge employment center, with a large industrial sector, and the benefit of the opportunity zone program is still “up in the air.”Jeff Kulaga, town manager of Guadalupe, said he'd like to see his East Valley town of just more than 6,000 residents included if another round opens up.The southeast Valley town of Guadalupe has struggled to bounce back from the recession and has found it difficult to secure steady revenue streams to keep town services afloat.

My total electrical costs were $47,560 (labor and materials including 4 new LED recessed lights, light switches etc).  

This is still subprime lending and your buyers are going to have a tougher time when the next recession hits, and that will be soon.  

If we were to rewire completely, we would opt to add in recessed lighting everywhere as well. 

I have been in cash since the Great Recession where my lender on a commercial property completely and unexpectedly called my loan in 2009.

We in the industry saw this after the Great Recession.
