Event Description Lake Norman Chamber of Commerce members will have a chance to weigh in on a controversial bill in the North Carolina General Assembly: House Bill 63 Firearm in Locked Motor Vehicle/Parking Lot.   
This is a Parking Lot/Employee Protection Bill that was introduced by state Representatives Phil Shepard (R-15), Mark Hilton (R-96), George Cleveland (R-14) and Jeff Barnhart (R-82).  It would establish that businesses cannot prohibit citizens from parking a car on a private parking lot because firearms are secured in the vehicle.  The bill has been assigned to the House Committee on Judiciary Subcommittee.
 
The Chamber’s monthly Focus Friday program will feature discussion on the bill led by
Brian Sisson, former Huntersville Town Board Member and Owner of The Range at Lake Norman will who speak in favor of the bill and gun rights.  The Greater Charlotte Hospitality & Tourism Alliance will furnish a speaker to present “property owners” rights and why the bill should not be approved.
 
The event will be held Friday, April 29th from 8-9:30 am at the FLATIORN Kitchen & Taphouse in Davidson.  A light continental breakfast will be served with the FLATIORN serving as our Food Sponsor and CorneliusNews.net / DavidsonNews.net serving as the presenting sponsor.  Hilary Broadway, with Allen Tate Real Estate, the Chamber’s Public Policy Chairman will facilitate the event.  While there is no cost to attend, the Chamber asks that those interested in attending RSVP on the website. 
 
The Lake Norman Chamber, representing approximately 1,100 businesses in the Cornelius, Davidson, Huntersville, and greater Lake Norman region has taken no position on House Bill 63.  For more information on this event or the Lake Norman Chamber of Commerce contact Bill Russell  at the Chamber 704-892-1922.
