Commercial Builders Council
The Commercial Builders Council allows companies who specialize in commercial building to gather to meet on a regular basis to hear speakers who bring information and address concerns for this special facet of the construction industry. It also gives the opportunity to network with your peers.
The council of the whole meets every other month at 7:30am. Please call the office (507-282-7698) if you have questions or are interested in attending a meeting before you become a member.
