Bear Lake Rendezvous Chamber News

Wonderful Chamber Members,

A big thank you to those who came to our Chamber dinner last week.  It was nice to have a few new faces, such as Bart and his wife from Alpine Cleaning and the Winters, new owners of Bear Lake Lodging. It was a pleasant evening with lots of lively discussion.

Report on Garden City P&Z
Another big thank you to all the chamber members who attended the P&Z meeting last week. That was one of the best attended P&Z meetings I've been to. P&Z was great at listening to our ideas. In the end it sounds like instead of a "no short term rental" zone overlay that would have blanketed most of the city, they are now considering amending the current STR ordinance to say something like "No short term rental license will be issued to properties located within an Home Owners Association where the HOA board has filed a letter showing that the CC&Rs do not allow short term rentals." So your feedback definitely helped.

January Chamber Member Meeting
Just a heads up that the January meeting will be the 2nd Thursday instead of the 1st one because of the holiday.  So plan on noon, Jan 8 in building "c" at the city office complex.  Put it on your calendar. One item we will be going over is all of the options of grants that the state offers to "rural" areas like Rich County. The state is really interested in helping you expand your business (or start a new one).
