I assume all made it back safely to your home counties after our Commissioners Legislative meetings in Charleston. Thank you to all commissioners, administrators, and councilors that attended. I truly believe it was a very worthwhile conference. Even though we heard some "gloom and doom" discussions from some of our speakers, we also heard from the Legislative Leadership that they are willing to listen to, and work with us through this legislative session.

 

We are now charged with moving our legislative agenda forward and helping our constituents. We have a new lobbyist in Jim Bowen who has hit the ground running. Between he and Vivian, we will be very well represented at the Capital leading the charge for our issues. But the secret weapon for moving our agenda forward is the person reading this; YOU!!!! Let's help ourselves and be visible in Charleston so our representatives know we are passionate about our cause. If you have any questions about our agenda, email or call Vivian or Jennifer and get the information you need. Stay in touch with each other, compare ideas, and let’s move the County Commissioner's Association into its role as leaders for the people we represent at home, and continue to make this a better State in which to live. We have a game plan, now we have to execute and that gets done with hard work, and I know you are all capable of doing so!!
