The success of <br />this arrangement is still in force today with the Chamber continuing to forward economic development prospects <br />and inquiries to the City of La Porte through ACM John Joerns. <br />The Chamber is pleased to continue to work with the City through the many partnerships we have developed <br />jointly through the years. <br />Colleen <br />Colleen Hicks, President <br />La Porte-Bayshore Chamber of Commerce <br />712 W.
