Content: Maybe the Economic Development Commission or the Planning and Zoning Board are right for you.

CALL YOUR OFFICIALS
Have a question, concern, or suggestion for your local or state leaders? Give them a call! This is the best way to get a message directly to them. Most officials love to have people show they care enough about an issue to ask questions and give input, and even set aside time to meet with their constituents one on one.
