Columbia County small business owners talk local challenges

Small business owners and local leaders gathered last week with Rep. Suzanne Bonamici to celebrate the start of Columbia County's first small business resource center and discuss the challenges facing local businesses. Bonamici said she was "really excited to be here to learn more about this project and to support this wonderful project here in Columbia County." She secured $175,000 for the center as part of an omnibus spending package last month.
