A vacancy currently exists on the Port Ludlow Drainage District (PLDD) governing body, due to the recent

in February 2018.
ANALYSIS:
The remaining two members of the PLDD governing body submitted a letter dated August 25, 2016, to the
Board of County Commissioners (BOCC), notifying the BOCC of the vacancy created by the resignation of
Jim Boyer, and recommending the appointment of Katie Smith to fill the vacant position.
