Livingston County Strategic Growth Initiative (6:30PM)
Land Policy Institute and local chambers host Visioning Workshops as next step in Livingston County Strategic Growth Initiative

In the next step of the Livingston County Strategic Growth Initiative, the Howell, Brighton and Hartland chambers of commerce and the Michigan State University Land Policy Institute are partnering to host several planning workshops, or Visioning Sessions.

These workshops will be held throughout August in various Livingston County locations for easy access by all who are interested in participating. At the workshops, which are designed as part of the process to identify a common vision, identify assets and develop targeted strategies to help Livingston County prosper, participants will identify their “vision” of the county for 10 to 20 years in the future.

Visioning sessions are scheduled for the following dates and locations. Additional sessions for future dates will be set as well, to be announced soon.
 
Thursday, September 2
6:30 - 8:30 p.m.
Brighton District Library

“Livingston County sits at a crossroads. It can continue to wait for economic recovery to begin and follow the same path as before, or it can position itself to succeed in the New Economy. The results of these workshops will form the backbone of the strategic plan being developed for the county,” said Pat Convery, president of the Howell Area Chamber of Commerce. “Join local leaders, planning experts and your neighbors to help us make the county the best it can be. Without your knowledge of the local assets provided by the residents of this county the economic picture is incomplete.”

According to Glenn Pape, Land Policy Educator and project coordinator, “The purpose of these workshops is to get people to put forth ideas for what they want to see in Livingston County. When we get a lot of ideas the best ideas rise to the top and get incorporated into the plan. The more people get involved the better the plan. So it’s key for people to show up and contribute ideas.”

There is no charge for the Visioning Workshops. For each session date, registration is limited to 50 attendees.

Livingston County Daily Press And Argus 10th Anniversary Special Business After Hours Event (4:30PM)
The Greater Brighton Area Chamber of Commerce, Howell Chamber of Commerce, Hartland Chamber of Commerce and the Fowlerville Business Association are joining together to celebrate the Livingston County Daily Press and Argus 10th Anniversary Special Business After Hours event
 
DATE: Wednesday, September 8, 2010
TIME: 4:30-7:00p.m.
LOCATION: LCDPA Burkhart Road Printing Operation in Howell Township (Tanger Outlet Mall; Take I-96 to exit 133, merge right on M-59 and then turn left at the traffic light onto Burkhart Road)
COST: No Charge!
 
On September 7, 2000, two well respected weekly newspapers in Livingston County began a bold new journey by combining to launch the first new daily newspaper in Michigan in half a century.
 
 It's been quite a ride, but it's been a successful one. Ten years later, the Livingston County Daily Press & Argus is celebrating it's ten-year anniversary with a special business after hours at our printing facility in Howell Township (on Burkhart Road next to the Tanger Outlet Mall.)
 
  We are inviting all chamber of commerce members to attend this special event, which runs from 4:30-7:30, Wednesday, September 8, 2010. We think it will be a special night. Visitors will get a tour of the plant and watch the next day's papers rolling "hot off the presses." There will be informal guided tours, door prizes, great food from Hickory BBQ & Grill and great conversation with fellow business people and civic leaders.
 
The daily has enjoyed great success in the last 10 years. It has been names newspaper of the year and is the top award-winner over the last four years in the state's annual Associated Press contest.
 
While other newspapers have struggled, the Daily Press & Argus is one of the few newspapers in the nation to enjoy paid circulation growth. Its Sunday circulation, for instance, is 5 percent higher than it was last year.
 
But most important, the newspaper has become a valued resource for readers and advertisers. Bringing news and advertising to Livingston County on a daily basis is a privilege. Much of our success is due to the good fortune of being located in Livingston County, a dynamic community with caring, successful people who share the newspaper's vision that our best days are still ahead of us.
 
"The September 8th business after hours is the newspaper's way of saying thank you to the many people who have made the first 10 years possible," said Rich Perlberg, the paper's general manager and executive editor. "We hope all chamber members will stop by to watch the press in action and join in the celebration."

Navigating A Changing Tax Environment Seminar (8:30AM)
Navigating a Changing Tax Environment Seminar
Sponsored by Executive Financial Planning & John Hancock

 
Date: September 17th, 2010
Time: 8:30 a.m. to 10:30 a.m.
Location: Oak Pointe Country Club

CPE Credit: 1.00

For decades, the United States had a top marginal tax rate as high as 50, 70, and even 90%. For the past 50 years there have only been five years, 1988-1992, where the top marginal tax rate was less than the current 35% tax rate. Considering the cost of the stimulus plan, soaring U.S. government debt, a $3.72 trillion deficit, expiring tax cuts passed in 2001 and 2003, and proposed tax legislation, income tax rate are sure to rise. As a result, every taxpayer will need to consult with their financial and tax advisors to implement investment and tax strategies that benefit from a rising tax environment.
 
Topics addressed in this continuing education course include:
• Tax code likely changes
• Tax planning strategies
• Future tax environment
• Retirement planning strategies
• Gifting and estate planning strategies
