Legislative Committee
The Board has renewed an agreement with Tonkon Torp to continue governmental relations work into the 2011 Legislative Session. We believe that “early education” will be a critical component to the OEDA work plan this year, providing our members with the details required to have informed discussion about economic development priorities with local legislators well in advance of the session.
