Government Affairs Click here | Dear Chamber Members...
While the last Legislative Session was, by most accounts, not good for business, the White Bear Area Chamber was successful in advocating for the removal of the auditing procedure on businesses that apply for the sales tax exemption. Starting in August of 2014 businesses can receive an up-front sales tax exemption after purchasing capital equipment, saving Minnesota businesses over 200 million dollars a year. This initiative had broad bipartisan support from the White Bear Lake legislative delegation. Make it a great week! Tom Snell, Executive Director White Bear Area Chamber of Commerce Special Chamber Membership Luncheon
