Governor Butch Otter is bringing the State
Government to Boundary County when he visits on
Friday, April 25, bringing part of Boise with
him. The “Capital for a Day” program is designed
to allow citizens the opportunity to engage with
the governor and his staff regarding any concern
or problem they are experiencing in dealing with
an issue in the state governmental process.
Governor Otter believes in keeping in touch with
all Idahoans. He also knows that the strength of
our Republic relies on an engaged and informed
citizenry.
The meetings provide local residents an
opportunity to have an open discussion about
their government, issues and public policy with
Governor Otter and his cabinet.
This month’s “Capital for a Day” will start off
at 9 a.m. at the fairgrounds with the
presentation of the colors, a welcome to
Governor Otter and the introduction of his
cabinet members and agency representatives.
Questions will begin from the audience and
continue until a break for lunch at noon and
then questions will resume shortly after lunch
until about 3 p.m.
This event is open to the public, with an
optional lunch provided for $12 per person.
Please call (208) 267-2242 or (208) 267-7723 to
reserve or purchase your lunch tickets as soon
as possible as organizers need to get a
tentative count for lunch.
Also, please notify the Boundary County
Commissioners at (208) 267-7723 of the area of
concern that you wish to address. This is
important to the meeting, so the Governor may
have the appropriate representative of that
agency in attendance.
So whether you have questions on our highways,
air quality, education, natural resource issues,
wildlife, or anything else of importance to
Idaho, bring your questions and plan on
attending “Boundary County’s Capital for a Day."
Please plan to attend, ask your questions, share
your opinions and seek answers from our governor
and state agencies!
Governor Otter began his first “Capital for a
Day” program right here in Boundary County, and
he's since carried the state capital with him
for "Capital for a Day" events to all 44
counties in the state, and it's good to welcome
him back for another opportunity to address our
issues. |
