The vast majority of the businesses surveyed said housing difficulties are underpinning their struggle to find workers.
As a result of the survey, the Chamber is comprising a Business Housing Roundtable to shift the conversation from focusing on the challenges to explore ways to make improvements. There are currently approximately 100 businesses involved.

The department hosted a fundraiser for Officer Joseph Shepard on Friday.
Shepard is recovering, following surgery to remove a mass on his brain.
People made pre-orders for pork loins and barbecue plates, picking them up outside the Jackson Chamber.
Jackson Police Department officials say this fundraiser is important to help Shepard’s family.
“This is just a way we can assist him and his family in their journey to healing and recovery,” said Deputy Chief Derick Tisdale.
Tisdale also says they hope to raise enough to provide for Shepard’s family.
