Get an Insider’s Look at the County Budget from the County Executive

Westchester County Executive Rob Astorino will get up close and personal with BCW members on November 16 when he makes his first presentation to the business community of his 2017 county budget. Astorino has agreed to give us an inside look at how he developed the spending plan, and will answer your questions about how the budget will affect your business and our local economy.  Sure to be part of Astorino’s presentation is his bold and creative proposal for a public-private partnership in which a highly-respected airport management company would take over the operations. The proposal would fund capital improvements and free up $20 million to add to the county’s general fund.

If you want to hear more about this proposal, and others in the budget, don’t miss this exclusive Business Council of Westchester program, part of the KeyBank Speaker Series on Wednesday, November 16 from 8-9:30 a.m. at Tappan Hill in Tarrytown.  Bring your questions or send us your questions in advance to John Ravitz at jravitz@thebcw.org. Admission is $60 for BCW members and $80 for non-members.[fusion_button link=”https://westchesterbuscouncilnyassoc.wliinc28.com/events/KeyBank-Speaker-Series-Featuring-Robert-P-Astorino%2c-Westchester-County-Executive–1447/details” color=”default” size=”” stretch=”” type=”” shape=”” target=”_self” title=”” gradient_colors=”|” gradient_hover_colors=”|” accent_color=”” accent_hover_color=”” bevel_color=”” border_width=”” icon=”” icon_position=”left” icon_divider=”no” modal=”” animation_type=”0″ animation_direction=”left” animation_speed=”1″ alignment=”” class=”” id=””]Register Now[/fusion_button]
