Public Policy Update from the desk of Bryan Fox, VP of Public Policy
This week State budget negotiations continue and the City returns for a work session on Thursday. We are also excited that many key officials and partners are signing up for our Inter-City Visit, and hope you can join us or sponsor. As additional issues persist, we will keep you updated but remember that many of our prioritiesare shared by the US Chamber and NC Chamber at the federal and state level respectively, consider getting involved locally by helping fill a vacancy on City & County Boards & Commissions, and continue to reach out anytime.
