Nelson Holmberg, the newly hired executive director of the Port of Woodland, has been appointed to two different boards that oversee business development in Cowlitz and Wahkiakum counties.
Holmberg was named to the board of directors of the Cowlitz Economic Development Council and to the executive board of the Cowlitz Wahkiakum Council of Governments.
Holmberg, 43, has led the Port of Woodland since April. Before that, he worked for the Port of Vancouver as communications manager for three years.
“We’re very happy with Nelson’s level of involvement,” said Paul Cline, president of the three-member Port of Woodland’s board of commissioners.
