~ Celebrating 55 Years in 2011 ~
CORA’s Political Action Committee monitors local legislative issues which may impact the restaurant industry in Central Ohio. This group meets the first Wednesday of each month to discuss issues and recommend action by the PAC. All CORA members are welcome to attend and to submit issues to the Chairman for consideration. An annual Legislative Update event is held which coincides with a fundraiser and founder recognition. No other association is monitoring local legislative issues for the restaurant industry in Central Ohio.
The Political Action Committee wishes you all the best in your home, your business, and your life in the coming year - our expectations are high that together and with your support we will deliver results that will simplify and improve your lives in 2010 and into the new year.
Legislation ... we’ve got multiple issues to work with this year-
the top contenders are:
- Changes in patio permits/fees
- Mayor's Health Choice Committee - asking for voluntary restaurant
menu labeling
Local Councils … Columbus City Council will be on our watchlist this year- the inaugural year of CORA-PAC. We’re interested in what each of them is working on - if you have a relationship with any of the current or past council members we’d like to talk with you.
Events … our calendar for the next 12 months will be coming out soon- look for it and please plan on attending to show support for our industry’s causes.
Membership … basic membership is $125 for one year of education, speaking opportunities to the political players that affect your business, and events
that show the power and reach our trade can generate using the multitude of employees we bring to bear. CORA-PAC Board Membership is $500.
