"Dear
Representative Storch:
This
year's legislative sessions in Missouri and Illinois yielded some notable
economic development gains for the St. Louis region. Important steps were
taken to upgrade the region's levees, improve job-recruitment tools, and expand
plant and life sciences research. These successes continue to build on
previous advances that have strengthened the bi-state regional economy and
business community.
The RCGA believes your strong leadership on behalf of the region deserves special recognition, and so we would like to honor you with our Lewis and Clark Statesman Award."
Sincerely,C.K. "Chip" Casteel, Jr.
Senior Vice President - Public Policy
St. Louis RCGA
The Awards Presentation will be held at the Four Seasons Hotel on August 18.
