Description
You are invited to join us for our December Chamber Headliners luncheon featuring Charlie Bishop, County Administrator, along with members of the County's leadership team: Courtney DePol, Bryan Parnell, and Dr. Corey Stutte, who will present a “State of the County” address. This is a valuable opportunity to learn about the exciting projects and initiatives outlined in the County’s 5-Year Capital Improvement Plan.
During the luncheon, Charlie and the team will cover a wide range of topics, from infrastructure enhancements and parks and recreation to veterans services, homelessness initiatives, and public safety. The vision and goals set by the Board of County Commissioners guide the direction of Manatee County. At the “State of the County” Headliners luncheon, you’ll learn more about priorities for the coming year, as well as the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead, including the Downtown Parking Garage, Premier Aquatics Center, Veterans Memorial Park, and major road improvements.
Manatee County has experienced significant growth over the past several years, and Chamber Headliners provides an important opportunity for members to learn more about the ongoing work and upcoming projects that will shape our region’s cultural and economic future.
What does the future hold? Join us on December 8 to find out!
