The luncheon is scheduled for noon at the Hyatt Regency Birmingham — The Wynfrey Hotel, but networking will begin at 11:15 a.m.
The cost is $20 for people with reservations, and Monday, Dec. 14, is the deadline to make reservations. The cost to attend without reservations is $22, with admission only if space is available.

Ivey has been Hoover’s mayor since Sept. 30, 2011, when he was appointed by the City Council to replace Tony Petelos, who took a job as Jefferson County’s first professional county manager.
Ivey also served eight years on Hoover’s Planning and Zoning Commission and was elected to the Hoover City Council and made its president in 2004. He was re-elected to the council without opposition in 2008 and also was unopposed for the mayor’s job in 2012.
