This move created approximately 30 acres open for development in the center of Cold Spring along the Sauk River.  Plans are to develop this area into office, retail and residential space.  Cold Spring Granite has requested TIF (Tax Increment Financing) assistance from the City of Cold Spring, with negotiations in their final stages.   Impact on the existing Cold Spring businesses has been one of the questions that have come up at city council meetings and at Chamber meetings.  In response to these questions and concerns, a task force was formed consisting of several members of the Chamber's Board of Directors.  A letter and survey was sent to all Cold Spring businesses regarding the proposed development of Cold Spring Granite Company's property in Cold Spring.  Download a copy of the press release, letter and surveyhere for more information. Business owners and managers are encouraged to read all information provided to better understand the project, the benefits and potential effects on the Cold Spring community. Visit www.digelogrocori.com to watch an interview with Larry Lahr, Cold Spring City Administrator to learn more about the project. _________________________________________________                                     JOIN THE COLD SPRING AREA CHAMBER OF COMMERCEChamber membership is open to individuals, local Non-Profit Organizations, and businesses of all sizes.  Being a member of the Chamber is an investment in your business and in the community.  Besides providing opportunities to promote you and your business, mMembership in the Cold Spring Area Chamber offers networking with fellow business members,  educational opportunities, and discounts at events such as monthly luncheons and the annual Community Showcase. Whether you or your business is new to the area, if your business is just getting started or long-established, if  we invite you to become a member of the Cold Spring Area Chamber of Commerce. For more information check here or contact the Chamber office:  Phone 320-685-4186 Or email us at    info@coldspringmn.com.  A member of the Chamber membership committee will be happy to visit your business to discuss membership opportunities.   ______________________________________________________________
