Green leaves PDA
By Brian Lawson, PolitickerNH.com ReporterDick Green is stepping down as the executive director of the Pease Developmental Authority (PDA).
Green, a former state Senator from Rochester, cited "philosophical differences" with PDA's executive board.
"The Pease International Tradeport is a tremendous success story and it will continue to be an economic engine that helps drive the New Hampshire economy," Green said in a press release. "However, since the beginning of the year, it has become increasingly clear to me and to our board that, while Pease's future remains bright, we have philosophical differences as to which paths should be pursued to best secure Pease's future success."
Green was appointed to the position in 2006.

Quote of the Day
"I had a person ask me that once and they asked which is the most powerful position I've ever held and I would have to say being chairman of the New Hampshire Democratic Party at a time when there was an upcoming New Hampshire primary is pretty important in the scheme of things," Bruno joked.

Timing is everything
Jackie Cilley should be counting her blessings. If this had happened a month ago and Green decided to run for his old Senate seat, it would have been bye bye Jackie.
