Two New Commissioners Join Port of Oakland

Two new Port of Oakland Commissioners were sworn in by Oakland Mayor Jean Quan on August 1st.

The newcomers, Cestra “Ces” Butner and Bryan Parker, were recently nominated by Quan and appointed by the Oakland City Council on July 26. They replace Pamela Calloway, who until last month had been the board’s president, and Margaret Gordon, an environmental activist who served one term on the board. Quan did not support new four-year terms on the board for either outgoing commissioner.
