Each year, our municipal, county, and district elected officials work closely together on a variety of issues important to local residents and businesses. Recent local issues have included municipal taxes, annexations, developments, and events. At the county and district levels, critical issues have recently included infrastructure, human rights, and economic growth. These are just a few broad topics that are covered from year to year, and it is important to have a voice to help guide our representatives.
The Sturgis Area Chamber of Commerce & Visitors Bureau tracks these issues closely to fulfill our Mission:
The Sturgis Area Chamber of Commerce & Visitors Bureau advocates on behalf
of its members and actively supports business, agriculture, and tourism resulting in an enhanced
quality of place for the entire community.
