Eugene Chamber of Commerce

The Chamber recently hosted a group of business leaders for an informal conversation with one past and three current members of the Eugene Planning Commission, to help them better understand the job of a planning commissioner. Those in the crowd came from a variety of business backgrounds, but all were interested in helping Eugene move forward with the many challenges and opportunities facing the community, by possibly serving on the commission. Questions were answered about the application process, time commitments, upcoming issues, among many other things. The Chamber has been hard at work seeking pragmatic applicants from the business community who can help Eugene move forward in addressing the many planning challenges and opportunities in the coming months and years.
