Leon County officials say the 2013 legislative session turned out well for the region. Schools, universities and state employees are all celebrating.
Local leaders met with state legislative delegates today on Tuesday to discuss how the laws and budgets passed this session will affect the local community.
Rep. Alan Williams (D-Tallahassee) said, this year’s budget includes pay raises for the thousands of state workers in the area, the first they’ve seen in seven years. And that should help boost the local economy.
Tallahassee’s Gaines Street is now open to all traffic. But future development in the area excites local government officials and business owners more than newly paved roads.
