Chamber of Commerce secretary faces scrutiny over political meddling
A year after a heated public vote on taxing intangible property the secretary of the Chamber of Commerce is accused of taking sides in political battles. The piece alleges he backed gas price increases and opposed labor referendum efforts, pressing for committee actions and influencing officials. It calls for reforms: no political action by the chamber, open notice and vote on issues, and the secretary’s duties aligned with the organization. The Chronicle Telegram signals concern that such behavior harms the chamber’s integrity and invites broader member input.
