Lawrence Officials Work To Identify New Chamber President        

  Lawrence County officials have decided to enlist assistance in their search for a replacement for Chamber of Commerce President Randy Brewer.

  During a meeting last week, members of the Joint Economic And Community Development Board opted to contract with Tom Ferguson, of Ferguson Development Network of Greenville, to secure the services of an industrial recruiter. Members of the board represent the Lawrence County Government as well as the five cities within the county – Lawrenceburg, Loretto, St. Joseph, Iron City, and Ethridge.

  Under the agreement, board members will pay Ferguson $16,998. Ferguson will help fill the Chamber position, which will become vacant when Brewer’s resignation becomes effective next month. In addition, he will examine the chamber’s structure, assets, liabilities, budget appropriations, and methods of industrial recruitment. The board also agreed to pay Ferguson expenses of up to $2,000. Any additional expenses would have to be brought before the board for approval.
