President Roger Hull will serve as moderator for
“Forum for Change,” a discussion with local economic development
leaders aimed at stimulating growth on Tuesday, April 25, at 7 p.m. in the
Nott Memorial.
The forum, free and open to the public, will bring
together leaders responsible for economic development in Schenectady
County who will discuss their plans and perspectives and answer questions
from the audience.
“This forum is a valuable opportunity for those
concerned with and responsible for the city's and county's future to
present their ideas on how to move forward,” said Hull. “We're
at a critical point in Schenectady. We plan to host these meetings as long
as necessary as a way to monitor progress and hold people
accountable.”
Forum participants are City Council President Joseph
Allen, County Legislative Chairman Robert Farley, Golub Corp. President
and COO Neil Golub, Schenectady Mayor Albert Jurczynski, and Schenectady
Economic Development Corp. President George Robertson. Proctor's Theater
