Just a couple of weeks after the disbanding of the Lakeshore Chamber of Commerce, there are rummblings on social media about the impending demise of the Baroda Business Association. Several members or past members complained on Facebook that the organization is being shut down and funds distributed per the bylaws of the association. They complained there was no vote or poll of the membership before the decision was made by the Board of Directors. And they argued that even if the Board followed the bylaws, it was the wrong decision for the Baroda area.
The Board has not made any official statements about the situation and its website appears largely outdated, with no new information for at least three years.
The Lakeshore Chamber of Commerce shut down and joined forces with the Southwest Michigan Regional Chamber of Commerce, apparently with the strong support of many of its members.
