Long Island Chapter Director of Government Affairs Message

Charles A. Gardner

In my role as Director of Government Affairs, I am meeting with officials at all levels of government – local, state and federal including school districts and all other potential owners/consumers of electrical contracting services.

Much of my work for the Chapter involves the promotion and marketing of NECA contractors to these groups and individuals and within the construction industry itself. I emphasize the ability of NECA contractors to get the job done safely, on time and on budget. I work closely with other area business associations, keeping the lines of communications open between us so that we are current with all issues affecting our members.

Also, I monitor current, pending or proposed legislation on any level that would affect the members of our Long Island Chapter. Please feel free to contact me with your comments about any legislation that affects the electrical contracting industry.
