Recently, I received the resignation of one South Carolina’s finest public servants and my friend Chris Eversmann who is leaving his dual duties with Richland County as Airport General Manager and Deputy Director of the Department of Public Works to take a job as the Program Manager for the South Carolina Aeronautics Commission. Chris is an engineer by trade after a stint in the Marine Corps. He has worked various jobs in his field of expertise and spent seventeen years with Richland County. We are losing a valuable member of the airport staff and I can sincerely tell you that every interaction I have had with Chris was a positive experience. He and I flat out work well together, and I will miss him dearly!

I am happy for him personally and this is a step up for him professionally. The Aeronautics Commission is getting a good soldier! Chris’s last day will be September 15th and I have enjoyed collaborating with him on hiring his successor. I wish nothing but the best for Chris moving forward in his new endeavor.

We’re here for the people of South Carolina!
