The Blaine Chamber of Commerce hosted its third business workshop on January 25 at the Pizza Factory, located at 738 Peace Portal Drive. The evening featured a presentation from city staff about economic development efforts. An open discussion followed, with folks from around the community, including Jim Zell, c., bringing several issues to the table, including the I-274 offramp, the prospect of a railway stop in Blaine and ideas for boosting the local downtown business scene.
