Rev, Tracey Brown, a Plainfield Municipal Utilities Authority commissioner for four years, and James Perry, the authority's chief finance officer for more than 16 years, were honored at a special meeting Thursday.
Brown joined the PMUA board of commmissioners as an alternate in 2008 and became a full commissioner in 2010. She is leaving as of Jan. 3, 2013 to fill the citywide at-large seat on the City Council. The governing body will reorganize on that date and Brown will be sworn in for a four-year term.
Brown, pastor and founder of Ruth Fellowship Ministries, received a resolution of thanks for her service and the gift of a clock.
Perry was not present for Thursday's meeting but will receive a plaque and a copy of the resolution honoring him at a later gathering. He was praised for staying on past his previously announced retirement date of September 2011 to assist the authority in a time of transition, as its two former top officials, Executive Director Eric Watson and Deputy Executive Director David Ervin, left the organization in 2011. The three formed the original leadership of the authority.
