SANTA CLARITA, March 23, 2023 — The Santa Clarita Valley Chamber of Commerce today announced the 14th annual State of the County is scheduled for Wednesday, May 31st at 11:30 AM at the Hyatt Regency Valencia. The SCV Chamber and Supervisor Kathryn Barger’s office have been working to create a dynamic event as the SCV Chamber continues to celebrate its Centennial anniversary.
“Every year, I am excited to partner with the Santa Clarita Valley Chamber of Commerce to deliver my annual State of the County address,” said Los Angeles County Supervisor Kathryn Barger. “It’s a milestone year for the Chamber since they are celebrating their 100th year serving our business community in the Santa Clarita Valley, so this year is extra special. Our annual State of the County is also an important opportunity to collectively pause and reflect. A good public policy practice is to take time to examine what we have learned and use that information to inform future strategies. I look forward to having an opportunity to share accomplishments, lessons learned, and my vision for next steps at this convening.”
Supervisor Barger will address the Valley’s elected officials, prominent business leaders, and community influencers as she discusses topics pertinent to our business community and the Santa Clarita Valley. From economic development to housing, mental health resources and job creation, Supervisor Barger will engage in a conversation about her vision for the future of the Santa Clarita Valley and Los Angeles County.
“Supervisor Barger continues to demonstrate her commitment to the well-being and growth of our businesses throughout all sectors,” said Becki Robb, Chair of the SCV Chamber Board. “Now that we have overcome many obstacles over the past several years, we are looking forward to a thriving future ahead and the Supervisor’s vision. It is always a pleasure to interact with Supervisor Barger and engage with her in a thoughtful conversation, this is definitely an event that our community continues to look forward to.”
