Commissioners also passed a resolution declaring July Pride month at the Port, approved an update to Port policies on state environmental reviews, and authorized funding for remedial investigation of a Port-owned property that was once home to a steam plant.
Commissioners received a report outlining potential future uses of the Earley Business Center and an update from Port staff and Tacoma Public Schools about development of a second interlocal agreement for the new Port Maritime Center/Maritime 253 skills center project.
