The NCKSEC administrative office is moving

After much consideration and several months of researching maintenance costs for the Glade facility as well as other potential locations, the board determined the most cost effective option was to move the NCKSEC office. At the November 17th meeting the NCKSEC board of directors approved a lease agreement for office space at the Fisher Building located at 205 F Street in Phillipsburg . Renovations to the Fisher Building will be completed and the NCKSEC office will be moved June 1st 2009 .
