Summary
The CRA's longtime chair announced a March 31 resignation after election to the Sebring City Council; the board nominated Rachel Webb as chair and Tracy McCoy as vice chair and heard an introduction from Shelley, a TDC consultant.
The Sebring Community Redevelopment Agency learned on March 23 that its current chair will resign effective noon March 31 after being elected to the Sebring City Council. The chair used his final board meeting to reflect on a decade of work and to open nominations for his successor.
A board member nominated Rachel Webb to serve as chair; members expressed support and congratulated her. The board also nominated Tracy McCoy for vice chair; both nominations were approved by the board and will be forwarded to the city council for ratification, as required.
During the meeting a regional tourism consultant who identified herself as Shelley introduced her role as a consultant with the TDC and described recent hospitality training and destination‑identity workshops in the area. "Our goal has been to work towards regional tourism," she said, and invited board members to attend a Sebring workshop scheduled the following day.
In his remarks the outgoing chair reflected on the CRA's growth during his tenure, noting a shift from small facade grants to acquiring buildings and reshaping downtown. He specifically cited ongoing projects such as the Bank of America building and efforts to revitalize Washington Heights.
The meeting adjourned after members presented a token of appreciation to the outgoing chair.
