Wicomico Elected, Business Officials Discuss Virus Impact

SALISBURY – A discussion on the impacts of the pandemic on county operations and small businesses highlighted a meeting of the Wicomico County Council this week.

On Tuesday, Wicomico County Director of Administration Wayne Strausburg and Salisbury Area Chamber of Commerce President and CEO Bill Chambers presented the Wicomico County Council with an update on county and local business operations during the COVID-19 pandemic.

“Needless to say, we are in the midst of a historic crisis for businesses,” Chambers said. “This is impacting every business on the Eastern Shore.”

During his presentation to the council this week, Chambers said the Salisbury Area Chamber of Commerce has worked closely with the Greater Salisbury Committee and Salisbury-Wicomico Economic Development in recent weeks to field questions and direct businesses to the appropriate resources during the pandemic, which has altered or shut down many business operations.

Yes and Strasburg and Cannon along with Mccain and Hastings want to spend 35 million on the airport. They are being led by the nose by Chambers and Dunn

Has not effected " actual " local industry yet just all the tiny businesses that don't pay living wages and benefits. Boutiques and cafes and restaurants that were already struggling. This crisis is really going to test the resolve of supposed Entrepreneurs . Bring their little fantasy back to reality. Paying rent and sitting around waiting for people to just stroll in and give you money for things and food they can make for themselves is a really out dated business model.
