County’s Economic Office
Moving To Historic
Chamber of Commerce Building
|
Continuing Hunterdon County’s process of advancing economic development operations towards a public private partnership, the Freeholder Board approved moving the Division of Economic Development offices to the Chamber of Commerce’s historic Reading-Large House, at 119 Main St, in Flemington, at no rent cost to the County.
Freeholder Board Director Matt Holt stated, “From its inception the plan for economic development is to become a public private partnership. Having the County’s office located in the Chamber building, at no cost to the County, sends a strong message to the business community that the Chamber and the County are unified in our efforts.”

At All Time High
|
Residents and visitors seeking to enjoy the Hunterdon County Parks system is at an all time high, as the Parks Division has issued 389 use permits at the five major park sites since the beginning of the year.
Freeholder John King, the Board’s liaison for the Parks Division, stated, “The Parks system has long been considered the jewel in the crown for Hunterdon County. The fact that a record number of residents and visitors are taking advantage of the County’s parks acreage and natural beauty, only serves to reinforce that belief.”

Part of the answer: Shared services, and that includes jail consolidation.

August 9 - Frontiers
The Frontiers are hailed by fans and critics alike as the best Journey tribute band in the world, performing Journey’s music with chilling accuracy! Lead vocalist Elaine Tuttle is an absolute dead ringer for Steve Perry vocally. Fans agree that the Frontiers deliver the closest experience to the original Steve Perry fronted lineup. The band features world class New York musicians Damon Marks (guitar, vocals), Larry Edoff (keys, vocals), Marc Windler (bass, vocals), and Gerry Fortus (drums) who along with Elaine, have brought the show to critical acclaim.
