Portland Chamber of Commerce

What's going on with the Portland Chamber of Commerce?????

There hasn't been anyone in the office since mid-December 2005. There is no sign on the door. If you call the Chamber's phone number, you get a rather unfriendly message: "This is the Portland Chamber of Commerce. For immediate assistance, call the City of Portland, 325-6776 [LOUD CLICK]."

The Chamber knew for many months that Mrs. Walker was retiring. Surely they had plenty of time to interview and hire somebody to fill the position.

The current lack of anybody in the Chamber office is a disservice to Portland. It is also a disservice to the Chamber members who pay dues.
