No matter where your interests lie, there's something for everyone in the Village of Hamburg. What is the VBAC? In 2006, a non-political group of Village of Hamburg business and building owners came together to form the Village Business Advisory Council. The initial purpose of this group was to form a task force to address the problems and challenges that faced village businesses and the community as a whole during the road construction. With the support of various levels of government, the Chamber of Commerce, and other Village volunteer groups, the VBAC has successfully demonstrated that a united voice for the business community can make a positive impact in our village. The VBAC has adopted a constitution, by-laws and both vision and mission statements. In 2008, the VBAC was incorporated as a Limited Liability Company. With an active board of directors and a growing membership, the VBAC is now working hard to market this community to both prospective consumers, and prospective new businesses that will compliment our established business base. Our list of accomplishments includes: Initiating a comprehensive plan for municipal parking, multiple successful community based events, Dine in the Village evenings, unified advertising for our members, strengthened camaraderie between business owners, successfully disseminated information to the public and our membership regarding construction. What Guides The VBAC? Our Belief in our Mission! OUR MISSION is to come together as a dedicated group of business professionals, working in unity to support, promote and strengthen and perpetuate local businesses in the Village of Hamburg.
