Green Bay, Wis.­ (Feb. 26, 2009)—  By unanimous vote, the Green Bay Area Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors has adopted a formal statement with respect to roundabouts on Military Avenue.

“Normally, the Chamber wouldn’t weigh in on routine infrastructure issues,” said Paul Jadin, president of the Green Bay Area Chamber of Commerce. “But because of the ongoing debate over the Military Avenue roundabouts and the Chamber’s concerns over potential for delay and cost, we determined it was appropriate to take a position.”
