Greetings.
Happy New Year from the EDC! 2014 is off to a great start. Newtown and Sandy Hook are seeing new business openings and development plans beginning to execute. In this newsletter, I've highlighted a few new developments within town and provided information on a range of commercial spaces for sale and lease. On the EDC website, www.newtown.org, we provide a site selection/property search link for those interested in commercial space in Newtown or Sandy Hook. Take a look at the commercial opportunities available. If you have any questions regarding commercial space in town, don't hesitate to contact myself or Elizabeth Stocker.
The EDC hosted a successful business seminar series in 2013 at the Booth library. We are pleased to announce in 2014 the EDC will partner with the Newtown Chamber, SCORE and Newtown Savings Bank as our sponsor for both the spring & fall series. Learn about the Spring Seminars, the first one is Thursday, March 13th from 8am - 9:30am @ the Booth Library, mark your calendars! We hope to see you there.
