Local Government

The Fairfield Area Chamber of Commerce Supports:
Business Climate
  • ​​​State rules and regulations that affect Iowa’s business climate to assure they do not inhibit businesses from expanding or locating in the state and preserving Iowa’s Right-to-Work status.
​Tax Reform
  • ​Improving our states business competitiveness by reforming our commercial and industrial property tax system. Simplifying and reducing corporate income taxes.  
  • Flattening and streamlining the personal income tax code.
Economic Development
  • ​​Expanding business and school collaboration to ensure that Iowa will have the skilled workforce to grow and create high paying jobs.  
  • Establishing programs to provide assistance and resources to sustain local ownership of businesses through succession planning techniques.  
  • Maintaining Tax Increment Financing as a local economic development tool.  
  • Amending current state assistance wage threshold requirements to better reflect project and community dynamics.  
  • Improving training, development, and retention of skilled labor in business and industry through the use of increased training grants and public/private partnerships.  
  • Increasing funding for Iowa Economic Development Authority and its business and community project assistance funds.  
  • Improving the transportation infrastructure by increasing the funding options to address critical needs.
