To the Editor,

By now most of the community is aware of the port director's "unprofessional behavior" in the workplace. That's what it has to be called for the Union- Bulletin to print it. The facts are that the commissioners fired the auditor/treasurer for "performance issues," then turned around and gave the executive director a raise not long after two commissioners and the port director vacationed together in Phoenix at the director's condo.

Wouldn't any reasonable person want to know the entire story and what our tax dollars might be paying for behind the scenes?

When is someone going to have the courage to stand up and say the emperor has no clothes? I am appalled and disgusted, by the actions at the port and I would have thought that our local newspapers would have investigated and vetted this story thoroughly.

I, for one, am voting for change at the Port of Walla Walla. I will be voting for Barlow Corkrum.
