| Greg Byrne, Bainbridge Island’s director of planning and community development, has resigned to take a position in Oregon, Mayor Darlene Kordonowy recently announced.
“Greg has made important contributions to the organization and to the management team,” Mayor Kordonowy said, noting the planning department’s current initiative to update and streamline the City’s codes as one accomplishment. “Greg is also a wonderful human being. We will miss his leadership and his commitment to building a sustainable community.”
Mayor Kordonowy noted that the City is already moving forward to fill this critical position. “This is a key position for the City, and we intend to move as expeditiously as possible in finding an appropriate, well-qualified candidate.”
Byrne’s last day with the City was May 16. Kathy Cook, currently division manager for Downtown Planning, will serve as interim director while the search for a permanent replacement takes place.
