The Port of Vancouver USA will hold its annual Commissioner Forum to discuss a variety of port-related topics, including new business occurring at the port and the associated job creation, on Tuesday, November 15, at 2 p.m. in the Commission Room at the port's administrative building, located at 3101 NW Lower River Road in Vancouver.
During the forum, the port's three commissioners, Brian Wolfe, Nancy Baker and Jerry Oliver, as well as executive director Larry Paulson, will hold a public discussion to answer questions posed by local community members. The specific questions and comments that will serve as the basis of the discussion were gathered from the public during a number of events at local community centers and coffee houses, neighborhood meetings and through a port-sponsored survey.
Job creation and the economy, port development, transportation projects and environmental sustainability are among the issues raised by the public that will be covered at this year's event.
The forum is open to the public with live coverage on Clark/Vancouver Television (CVTV) channels 21 and 23. The program will also be available on CVTV's website.
