Description
Join the Okeechobee Chamber of Commerce for a thought-provoking Chamber Connect Luncheon featuring Terry Burroughs, Okeechobee County Commissioner and former Chairman of the Florida Association of Counties.
As conversations grow about eliminating property taxes in Florida, Terry will break down what these proposals could mean for local residents and businesses. Learn why eliminating property taxes isn’t a tax cut—it’s a tax shift, and how changes could impact everyday services like safe neighborhoods, clean water, infrastructure, and parks.
This luncheon will offer an inside look at the importance of local decision-making, the realities of funding essential services, and how counties work to balance budgets while keeping taxes low.
Seats are limited—reserve yours today and be part of this vital conversation about protecting Florida’s quality of life.
