    Jim Parsons says the MNL convention always provides a great opportunity to network and get files moving.

    Corner Brook Mayor Jim Parsons says one of the big concerns in the area is infrastructure. The Mayor attended Municipality NL’s 74th annual convention in Gander last week. Parsons says the issue now is the lack of a federal-provincial agreement on funding and Corner Brook has needs. He says the MNL convention always provides a great opportunity to network and get files moving. The MNL Conference, Trade Show, and AGM is the largest municipal gathering in the province, with more than 100 municipalities represented.
