Tom Hall Addresses Chamber of Commerce
Town Manager Tom Hall addressed members of the Scarborough Community Chamber of Commerce on February 11, 2016 at their annual membership meeting. Town and Country Federal Credit Union hosted the meeting at their new administration building in Oak Hill. CEO David Libby was there to greet chamber members while staff members led guests on tours of the new facility.
In his presentation, Hall updated chamber members on local investments in the community from both the private and public sectors. He also highlighted some innovative projects and discussed the Town’s methods of engaging community members in Town governance. This year marks the fifth year in a row that the Town Manager has met with the Chamber in what has become known as the “State of Scarborough” presentation.
