The Limousine Association of New Jersey (LANJ) will hold their 2024 Kick-Off Meeting at 12 p.m. on Tuesday January 30 at the Sheraton Parsippany Hotel in Parsippany. Open to all operators—members or not—lunch will be served and there is no fee to attend. Vendors who attend must be current members of LANJ.
“This will be a program that you are not going to want to miss!” says LANJ Executive Director Patricia Nelson.
The meeting agenda will focus on the upcoming implementation of congestion pricing now intended for virtually all drivers below 60th Street in Manhattan. What it likely will mean for chauffeured transportation operators' pocketbooks will be explained by the featured speaker LANJ lobbyist Michael DeLamater of Market Street Strategies. There will be ample time set aside for questions and answers, so members are advised to come prepared to inquire about how the congestion pricing will affect your company's operational decisions.
Again, there is no fee to attend but pre-registration is required. To RSVP, reach out to Nelson at patricia.nelson103@gmail.com, saying "I'll/We'll be there" and confirming your registrant’s name(s) and company.
