At first I thought the merger of the chambers was a good idea. Now I think it's a GREAT idea. When government and a newspaper both come out against a business decision you know you have a winner.
Congratulations!

It's time for a change at City Hall.

The chamber is attempting to do what is best for their businesses and the customers of their businesses. While businesses must tolerate government thinking, it is refreshing to see a group of people willing and wanting to work with neighboring communities to make the area stronger. The Chamber is exhibiting openness and teamwork.

Bisiness leaders create eoncomic vitaility which results in more jobs, they provide services based on customer needs, they compete to make a profit while improving efficiencies and they listen to their customers.

Government believes government is good and more government is even better.

The Chamber should boldly continue to step into the 21st century and ignore the small minded council members.

The Chaska City Council is no fan of the Chaska Area Chamber’s recent vote to merge with chambers in Chanhassen and Victoria.

Monday night, the council grilled the chamber’s Executive Director Deb McMillan and Board Chairman Lon Hand on what the vote could mean for Chaska and its businesses.
