How It Operates:

The Board of Directors is the policymaking body of the Tioga County Chamber Of Commerce.  Its members represent the business and professional leadership of the county.  The board consists of 24 members.  There are eight officers and 16 directors.  One-third of the directors are elected each year for three years.  Offices are elected each year for one-year term.  The Chairman presides over all meetings of the board.

The Executive/Personnel committee consists of the officers and the President.  It exercises powers of the Board between Board meetings

There are also various other committees, the chairmen of which may or may not be members of the Board of Directors.

How It Is Financed:

The Tioga County Chamber of Commerce is financed primarily by the dues investments of its members.  The Board of Directors adopts a “Fair share” fee schedule from time to time.  Members’ financial investments may vary according to the fee schedule.  Membership dues investment fee schedules for non profit organizations and for individuals are established by the Board of Directors  (A current fee schedule is included in this manual.)

Additional financing for the chamber comes from events, insurance plan service charges, and industrial/business directories, copier, etc.
