Port of Port Angeles
Port of Port Angeles commissioners will discuss the staff’s ongoing update of port leasing policies when they meet Tuesday.
The meeting will begin at 9 a.m. in the public meeting room at the port administrative building, 338 W. First St.
The port began revising its leasing policies by, for example, turning month-to-month leases into longer-term leases following a whistleblower complaint last year by Colleen McAleer, then port director of business development and now a port commissioner.
The state Auditor’s Office subsequently cited several leases that were out of compliance with port policies.
Commissioners also will interview representatives of three consultant companies that will put together the port’s 2015-2020 strategic plan beginning this fall.
Interviews will be at 9:15 a.m. with AECOM, a Victoria-based engineering design company; at 10 a.m. with The Beckett Group, a certified women-owned business enterprise based in Gig Harbor; and at 10:45 a.m. with Maul Foster & Alongi Inc., a Bellingham-based company that specializes in environmental science, engineering, planning and landscape architecture.
Commissioners may make a selection at their meeting, Commissioner John Calhoun said.
