Westfield Mayor to Deliver Annual Address
The Westfield Chamber invites business leaders, community members and guests to attend the State of the City address from Mayor Scott Willis on Thursday, Nov. 13 from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. at the IMMI Conference Center.
Willis is scheduled to share highlights of the past year’s accomplishments and offer a preview of what’s ahead in 2026.
Willis was elected to his first term as Westfield’s second mayor in 2023. He is a decorated U.S. Marine Colonel, a successful businessman and a 20-year Westfield resident.
His administration’s four pillars include public safety excellence, accountability and transparency, quality growth and livability, and empowerment and continuous improvement.
Willis has stated he is committed to diversifying Westfield’s tax base, recruiting new businesses and jobs, being fiscally responsible and transparent and strategically growing the city. His vision for Westfield’s development is about growth and creating a vibrant and inclusive community for all. This is apparent in his vision for downtown Westfield, a four-phase approach to redevelopment and revitalization, including multiple parking garages and multi-use developments, and retaining the ‘Restaurant Row’ charm while making it more pedestrian-friendly.
This annual State of the City typically sells out, so those planning to attend are advised to register early. You can register at : https://westfieldchamberofcommerce.growthzoneapp.com/ap/Events/Register/kgFeADMHzCVC1
