McCrory speaks to industry professionals
On
August 19, gubernatorial candidate and Charlotte Mayor Pat McCrory spoke to
a large and enthusiastic crowd gathered at Embassy Suites for a luncheon sponsored
by the Triangle Community Coalition (TCC) and the National Association of Industrial
and Office Properties (NAIOP).
The event was a unique
opportunity to have interactive and unscripted dialogue with the candidate
(Lt. Governor Beverly Perdue was invited, but was unable to attend).
McCrory discussed labor
issues, expansion of vocational education and community colleges, and his
50-year infrastructure plan for transportation in the state.
“Our members and other interested
citizens had an excellent opportunity to meet with and listen to the ideas of
someone who, if elected in November, will have a direct impact on how our region
moves forward,” said Mike Munn, TCC chair and NAIOP board member. “It’s important
to maintain the Triangle’s success and ensure that it remains a great place
to live and work.”
