Continuing the tradition started by his father, former Assemblyman R. Stephen Hawley, Assemblyman Steve Hawley (R-I-C – Batavia) again will be hosting a Local Government Conference in Albany on Sunday, May 16 through Tuesday, May 18. The purpose of the 3-day conference is to help local government officials and representatives from the 139th Assembly District become more familiar with state government and the state agencies in the Capital.

“It is my pleasure to host the Local Government Conference again this year,” said Hawley. “During these difficult fiscal times for our state, it’s never been more important that a stronger relationship is built between local officials and the state Capital. If we can improve communication, and establish better relationships between the two, then we can streamline the needs of our community in a more efficient and less costly manner. As always, I look forward to this event and invite all local officials to join me.”

Boarding trains from Rochester and arriving in Albany, officials and representatives will be attending three days of seminars, meetings and lectures presented by a number of state agencies.
