There are three Divisions governing the Chamber, and each division has a clear purpose statement that is easily understood.
Members of the Executive Committee are assigned responsibilities as Chairpersons for one of the Divisions, and each of our remaining 16 board members will be an advisor to one of the divisions.
The division heads and advisors will make the decision on projects and issues that need to be dealt with, and select “project teams” from the Chamber membership. These project teams will have a well defined project to work on, and a reasonable timetable for completion. You do not have to be a Chamber board member to be on a project team.
Project teams will have a designated person to serve as secretary (to keep meeting minutes), and a Chairperson that will keep the Division Chairperson informed of the progress of their specific projects.
The Executive Director will be the person responsible for all projects being completed in a timely manner.
