Daily Briefing, 4/26/2012

Good morning everyone!  Here is today's Daily Briefing.

In Bethlehem, Mayor Callahan unveiled a $3.2 million plan to upgrade the city's historic downtown.  In Allentown, City Council will begin hearings tonight to fill another vacancy.  In Lehigh County, primary turnout was a mere 18%.  The Lehigh Valley Economic Development Corporation has said that they plan on hiring a new CEO in late May.

In national news, Newt Gingrich is now expected to formally drop out of the Presidential race.  The US Senate voted yesterday to give the post office $11 billion to pay down its debt while simultaneously delaying decisions on post office closings. Gas prices are falling and it looks like they will continue to do so.

Today is a busy day in Chamber world, with three events: a free mixer at Saucon Valley Medical Center & Sacred Heart Living, a breakfast on doing business in the City of Allentown and a LeBEAM "Storage Warz" event.

And that's it for now!  Have a great day, and we'll see you later.
