The El Dorado County Chamber of Commerce is an advocate for business. Our goal is to make sure that the business community has a voice in the ongoing debates over public policy in our community, in our state and in our nation. The El Dorado County Chamber of Commerce Public Policy Handbook is a concise record of the position set forth by the Chamber's Board of Directors on key issues facing all levels of the government.

Many volunteers contributed to the development of this handbook. Even though the positions stated are those of the Board of Directors and not the individual volunteers, this document would not have reached publication without their knowledge and insight. A special "Thank You" goes out to all of the El Dorado County business representatives and other contributors.

This handbook is not complete, and in fact, it never will be complete. There will always be new issues. The El Dorado County Chamber of Commerce Public Policy Handbook is a "living" document that will be revised on an annual basis. Feel free to bring to our attention any issue you believe the Board of Directors should add to the handbook. Please e-mail your suggestions to chamber@eldoradocounty.org or contact Laurel Brent-Bumb at (530) 621-5885.

Please put the Public Policy Handbook to work. Together we can make sure that businesses are heard in the many public policy debates that help shape our future.
