Testimonials

Robert Swayze is a highly talented professional I have worked with for several years. Robert was a tireless proponent for the Long Beach Enterprise Zone, and his team, working with our firm and the Long Beach Chamber of Commerce, was instrumental in securing the 15-year redesignation that has been critical for economic development in the city.
 
~ BLAKE CHRISTIAN, Holthouse Carlin & Van Trigt LLP
During his time with the City of Long Beach, Robert Swayze was a tremendous asset, leading an effective and efficient department and performing with the highest standards of professional conduct. Thanks to his support and guidance we have saved more than 115 jobs and millions in future tax revenues for the City of Long Beach by being able to stay in the city. Thank you to Robert for his hard work on behalf of the City and our community as a whole and I look forward to working with him and the EDR team in the future.
 
~ CAL WORTHINGTON, Founder, Worthington Ford
We worked closely with Robert Swayze on several projects. He was a very effective advocate for economic development focused on creating jobs and business opportunities. We really look forward to working with Robert and the EDR team in the future.
 
~ GREGG KIRKPATRICK, CB Richard Ellis
It was an honor for me to present the Business Technology Center with a HUD Best Practices Award to Robert Swayze and his team at the Los Angeles County Community Development Commission. You can all be proud of your work creating jobs and helping to advance the prosperity of Los Angeles County.
 
~ ANDREW CUOMO, Former US Secretary, Housing and Urban Development Department
Christina Miller was instrumental in keeping TV Guide Network headquartered in Hollywood. Her relationships in the community proved to be extremely valuable, as they provided introductions to government officials and key individuals that helped TV Guide capture tax incentives. I would recommend Christina most highly and would do business with her and the EDR team in the future.
 
~ MICHAEL MAHAN, Former President TV Guide Network
In my twenty plus years of creating large-scale urban villages for public benefit, I have never found a better champion than Sid White. As Ventura’s head of Economic Development, Sid leveraged $1.5 million in affordable housing funds to $67 million in total project financing. Thanks to Sid, we were able to build the WĀV, the first sustainable artists village in the world. Sid is an indefatigable collaborator, strategist and dispenser of common sense. With Sid on your team, you will be encouraged to accomplish great things.
 
~ CHRIS VELASCO President & Executive Director, PLACE (Projects Linking Art, Community and Environment)
Robert Swayze was an effective partner in marketing our Douglas Park development with a goal of bringing more businesses and jobs to our city. We very much look forward to working with Robert and the rest of the EDR team.
