Perry to sit on MLIRD board

| May 12, 2014 8:28 AM

MOSES LAKE - Grant County commissioners appointed Mary Perry to fill the vacant seat on the Moses Lake Irrigation and Rehabilitation District's Board of Directors.

Perry was one of three candidates who applied for the position last month. Kris Dexter and Tom Bennett also expressed interest in the seat left vacant by former director Mick Hansen, who resigned from his position in March.

Commissioners held candidate interviews in late April and announced their selection during a meeting Monday morning.

Perry will officially be sworn in during the board's monthly meeting Tuesday night. She will serve the remainder of Hansen's term, which ends in December.
