The town manager of Newburgh doesn’t mind her town being called a “bedroom community” to Evansville.
Lori Buehlman says the town accepts that title, but also thinks of itself as a “destination.” She says the historic town’s shops and restaurants are the most important part of the town’s economy.
Buehlman also says construction of new sidewalks will take a break for the winter, but will resume in the spring -- along with street paving.
The full interview with Beuhlman will air during Morning Edition on Friday, as part of WNIN’s Day Out in Newburgh.
