Chamber may move east

As progress was made and construction moved forward on the Ely Regional Trailhead Facility Project, one question remained unanswered: Will the new building be staffed?

That may finally be answered, given ongoing talks between the Ely Chamber of Commerce and the city of Ely, with the goal of making the $4.5 million facility the Chamber’s new home.

Both Eva Sebesta, the Chamber’s executive director, and city clerk-treasurer Harold Langowski, voiced optimism this week that a deal will be struck.
