PORTSMOUTH Susan Parker of Greenland is the newest member of the Pease Development Authority board of directors, replacing Peter Loughlin of Portsmouth, who served as a director for 31 years.
The change comes about as a result of legislation in 2019 that changed the member make-up of the PDA board to include, for the first time, representation from Greenland.
The past shared seat of Portsmouth-Newington, which Loughlin held, is now a shared seat of Greenland-Newington in response to concerns that Greenland is impacted by traffic in and out of the tradeport and other issues, but was without a voice on the PDA.
