Port Commissioner Bill Macrae-Smith, 75, announced his resignation Feb. 7.
“I have some family issues to deal with, in a few months or more,” he said by phone the next day. “We should put someone in there who can spend 100 percent of their time — somebody who has the time to attend the meetings and go out and talk to other people.”
After serving on the commission from 1984 to 1987, Macrae-Smith was elected in 2010 and re-elected in 2013.
A reception to honor Macrae-Smith for his years of service will be held following the port commission meeting Tuesday, Feb. 21, at 5 p.m., in the port office meeting room.
Questions about the application process can be directed to Port Executive Assistant Yvette Blum, at 835-8098 or Yvette@portcw.com.
