The Junction City Area Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors has directed Chamber Staff to look into a proposed regional partnership with Riley and Pottawatomie Counties.

Mark Ediger, Board Chairman explained that they directed Chamber CEO Dennis Beson to sign a Memorandum of Understanding that would allow the Chamber to look into the possible partnership further.

“We’re going to get into the details about what all is involved in this, and we’ve got no commitment at this point to anything except for the theory and the idea that a regional partnership would be good for all involved. It gives us the opportunity to move forward and pursue this further,” said Ediger.

The partnership is still in the early stages, and no final decisions have been made at this point.
