Is It Normal for Cities to be Members of Their Respective Chamber of Commerce?

Posted on April 8, 2021

Since the City of Huber Heights is not a member of its respective chamber of commerce, I was curious if it was “normal” for cities to be members of their respective chambers.

So I looked at a few neighboring cities and found that, yes, it is normal for cities to be members of their chambers of commerce. Granted, I didn’t look at every city that exists, so this is

Here are the Cities that are members of their Chamber:

• The City of Riverside is a member of the Riverside Area Chamber of Commerce
• The Kettering Moraine Oakwood Chamber has all three cities as members:
  • The City of Kettering
  • The City of Moraine
  • The City of Oakwood
  • Heck, Oakwood City Council is a member.
• Both the township and city are members of the Vandalia Butler Chamber of Commerce:
  • Butler Township
  • The City of Vandalia
• The City of Trotwood is a member of the Trotwood Chamber of Commerce.

Yes, the City of Dayton is a member of the Dayton Area Chamber of Commerce

Interestingly enough, so is Huber Heights, along with the following cities:

• The City of Brookville
• The City of Centerville
• The City of Clayton
• The City of Germantown
• The City of Riverside

Also, and interestingly enough, while the city is not a member of the Huber Heights Chamber of Commerce, the Huber Heights Division of Fire, Huber Heights Police Division, and Huber Heights Streets Division are.
