Huntington – Supervisor Chad A.
Lupinacci presented Town of Huntington Personnel Officer Lisa Baisley with a
proclamation on August 7 recognizing her recent election as President of the

“It’s incredible to know that one of
our very own members of Town Hall is making such a difference in so many lives
across the country,” said Supervisor Chad A. Lupinacci. “Ms. Baisley’s success
is not surprising; she is an extremely hard working member of our team of
dedicated Town employees and I look forward to seeing what she accomplishes

“A good, solid relationship between
labor and management is important to the efficient operation of government.
This organization offers labor relations professionals the opportunity to gain
the knowledge and skills they need to create and maintain such a relationship.”
said Lisa Baisley, Town Personnel Officer. “My goal as President this year is
to continue to grow the membership of this organization so that all levels of
government throughout the country can take advantage of these educational and
networking resources.”
