EDWARDSVILLE “I try to keep a low profile,” Cheryl Porter said.
That may be one reason for her career longevity, as the city’s assistant planner is stepping down Friday after being employed with Edwardsville since 1988.
Porter seemed an unlikely candidate for a planning and zoning employee.
“I actually have a bachelor’s degree in clothing and merchandising,” she said, adding that she was the first person in her family to attend college. She had begun working on a master’s degree in clothing and textiles. She worked at the Hampton Village location of Libson Shoppes; for the former discount store Venture; at Stix, Baer and Fuller in St. Louis, which later became Dillard’s; and at a law firm for a year, prior to joining the city.
