Where the categories and fees are published
Seven pages of their own site were read for a figure. None prints one.
The chamber does not print a dues ladder on its website. Its membership menu carries a Categories and Fees route, and that route leaves the website for the membership application system the chamber runs its joining on, where the categories and their figures are published. No figure is reproduced here, because none appears on the seven pages of their own site that were read for one. The membership team answers on the address below.
