Selectboard approves $149 membership in regional chamber
Summary
The Selectboard voted to pay $149 to rejoin the Okimo Valley Regional Chamber of Commerce after a presentation from Carol Ligh about the chamber's services and potential focused outreach for town events.
Carol Ligh, representing the Okimo Valley Regional Chamber of Commerce, told the board about the chamber’s regional advertising, events calendar and membership benefits and requested that the town renew its annual $149 membership. Ligh said the chamber publishes a regional magazine and runs event promotion and business advertising; she noted a membership of about 12 businesses in the region. After brief discussion about prior participation and potential focus on parks and events, a Selectboard member moved to approve the $149 membership and the motion carried by voice vote.
Board members raised the need for clearer communications and a focused approach to ensure the town receives value from chamber participation; no formal performance conditions were attached to the renewal.
