Sherwood Chamber of Commerce asks for a $10,000 bailout

The city's Urban Renewal Agency will consider the request from the chamber, which is $800 in the hole, on Feb. 17

Detroit automakers and Fortune 500 banks: Meet the latest cash-strapped agency seeking a government bailout -- the Sherwood Chamber of Commerce.

No, the small-city chamber isn't vying for money from the $800 billion-plus federal package that's supposed to prevent further economic implosion. Instead, chamber leadership has asked the city of Sherwood for a $10,000 grant infusion -- to help keep the doors open.

"Today, the last I checked, we were at negative $800," said Stephanie Adams, chamber president.
