CEO says alliance, chamber separate
Councilman questions line between two
The Charleston Chamber of Commerce joined two other groups nearly four years ago to form an organization now called the Charleston Area Alliance.
That's the popular belief, anyway. Dozens of newspapers articles reported the merger of the chamber, Charleston Renaissance Corp. and the Business and Industrial Development Corp. before, during and after it occurred in August 2004. Just ask Mayor Danny Jones, an alliance board member.
"That's what I voted for, and the boxes on the flow charts [at the time] indicated exactly that," Jones said.
