N.H. commissioners to present at forum
The Greater Concord Chamber of Commerce invites members and the public to its annual Lunch with N.H.’s Commissioners forum on Thursday, March 12, from 11:30 a.m. to 1:15 p.m. at Holiday Inn, 172 N. Main St., Concord.
Several of the commissioners will join the chamber for an important panel discussion covering timely topics, including plans to redevelop Interstate 93 through Concord and Bow, and state capital projects in the Greater Concord area. The panelists will also discuss challenges impacting the state, including the low employment rate’s effect on the state’s workforce, and the financial impact on municipalities of new regulations on water quality standards.
“Important decisions are being made, and we’re fortunate in New Hampshire to have access to this level of leadership who will meet and discuss the issues firsthand,” said Greater Concord Chamber of Commerce President Tim Sink. “The event includes a Q&A for attendees to ask questions.”
Invited panelists include Commissioner Charlie Arlinghaus of Administrative Services, Commissioner Taylor Caswell of Business & Economic Affairs, Commissioner George Copadis of Employment Security, Commissioner Robert Scott of Environmental Services, and Commissioner Victoria Sheehan of Transportation.
The luncheon is generously sponsored by Unitil and costs $25 for Chamber members and $35 for non-members to attend (includes a full lunch). Register online at ConcordNHChamber.com (required to attend).
