During a Special Called Commission Meeting held on Tuesday, February 17, former Commissioners James Barker, Philip Badcock, and Dannell Marks formally offered their resignations. In her remarks, former commissioner Marks expressed appreciation for the dedication and professionalism of airport staff, acknowledging their commitment to the organization during challenging circumstances.
Chairwoman Marsh stated, “Leadership is not an easy task, and transition does not define an institution; stability collaboration and forward progress do. I am absolutely proud of the team we have, of the team that is to come and the great work we will do together. The airport is an economic engine for our region supporting workforce mobility, tourism, business recruitment, and regional competitiveness.”
The remaining board members accepted the resignations and subsequently identified two nominees to submit to City Council to fulfill the remaining terms of two of the vacated seats. Nominations are based on qualifications and the work that the nominees have done in the community. One seat remains open, with a nominee to be determined and submitted at a later date.
The public is invited to attend the upcoming Commission Meeting.
