It s a pleasure to be here at the annual MSO Central Regional conference. I am pleased to be here and have this opportunity to speak with you today.
Partnership means helping each other to achieve a common goal.
In our case, that goal could be effective local government, efficient delivery of services, tax savings or economically-vibrant communities. There are two types of partnerships I want to specifically address. The first is the evolving partnership between governments. The second is the developing public-private partnership. This is vital if we want strong communities.
