Retiring Chairman Reviews 2022-23 Successes

It has been my honor to serve as Chairman of the Greater Enid Chamber of Commerce this year. It’s been a productive year as is outlined in the Chamber’s Community Development Highlights and Events summary. Much has been accomplished but much remains to be done. Still, it is appropriate to recognize some of the projects that have been completed or which remain in process, including:

Continued construction of the Kaw Lake Water Pipeline. This project, which is expected to complete in 2024 will secure vital water resources for our community for the next century.

Advance Soccer Complex completion. This public-private partnership exemplifies what happens when a community and private benefactors work together to build facilities that will benefit our community for generations to come.

Cost of Living Index

The Cost of Living Index measures relative price levels for consumer goods and services in participating areas. The average for all participating places, both metropolitan and non-metropolitan, equals 100, and each participant's index is read as a percentage of the average for all places. The composite index is based on six components - housing, utilities, grocery items, transportation, health care and miscellaneous goods and services.
