Event Description:
2014 State of the County
Teresa Jacobs, Orange County Mayor
In her two terms on the County Commission and as County Mayor, Teresa has challenged the "good ol' boy" way of doing things. She has passed ethics reforms, demanded that the public be able to speak up at Commission meetings, championed school and road concurrency reforms, voted against property-tax increases, and cut her own office budget when times got tight.
Some of the initiatives that Mayor Jacobs has started since becoming Mayor include:
* Prescription Drug Task Force
* One-Stop Permitting For Businesses
* Job-Creation-Tax Abatement
* Orange County Office of Public Engagement
* Orange County's Ethics Code
* Job Summits Series
* Youth Leadership Conference
* Holiday Hero Toy Drive
* Domestic-Partner Registry / Health, Education, and Life Protections Ordinance
New Member Orientation has been canceled due to the size of this event. The Luncheon is from 11:30 AM to 1:00 PM, but attendees are welcome to arrive at 11:00 AM for open networking. Please make sure to register and pay to RSVP. Our signature event will take place on the third Wednesday of each month unless otherwise noted. Our event features fantastic networking opportunities with fellow members and guests, a keynote speaker or panel discussion, and a delicious meal. Members, be sure to pre-pay in order to get the discounted rate.
