Brad Snyder served as District Manager and Director of Human Resources for fourteen restaurants in southern Arizona (Famous Sam's) before launching a career in real estate. Brad is a Realtor and Property Manager for Sierra Vista Realty and hosts a weekly real estate radio show on KTAN 1420AM called Open House.

Snyder said, “I care deeply about the future of Sierra Vista. Having worked and raised my family here, I am committed to providing strong leadership for not only families but also the businesses that create jobs and financial security to our community. My key interests are children, families, safe neighborhoods and economic development/jobs. We can balance stability, growth and change while supporting the unique character and history of Sierra Vista and Ft. Huachuca.”

Brad’s vision for Sierra Vista includes a welcoming environment for new business, encouraging new and affordable housing options, improving the infrastructure needed to support growth and keeping our tax structure as low as possible. “I will bring the same financial discipline I have practiced in private business to city government. A city is just like a business and our customers are the people... you and me. The government works for you... not the other way around,” stated Snyder.

Brad and his wife Iwona have four children all attending local Sierra Vista Public Schools. Iwona is a nurse and Director of Nursing at Sierra Vista Regional Medical Center.
