| Business Councils
Business Councils ensure the Chamber's ability to address the localized opportunities and challenges unique to each part of our county. Each of the six area business council holds regular meetings, has an elected board, and hosts a general membership made up exclusively of Chamber members with a professional or general interest in a particular geographically defined area.
