Hall resigns as EDC director

DAVENPORT – Margie Hall will resign her position as director of the Lincoln County Economic Development Council effective March 31. She’s taken a job for the state Department of Commerce in the Local Government Division with an emphasis on Eastern Washington and community development block grants.

“Community Development Block Grants provide rural communities with valuable assistance for high cost projects like water and sewer system updates,” Hall said. “I hope to continue to serve Lincoln County, just through a different resource.”

County commissioners will be searching for Hall’s replacement. Those interested in the position can look up the job opening on the EDC website.
