Everett Port Commission Adopts Vision & Core Values

During its annual retreat on Feb. 20, the three-member Port of Everett Commission adopted a new vision and values for the economic enterprise. Declaring "We are valued for operating in a sustainable manner that improves the community, environment and economy," the commissioners approved the following a set of core values to advance the organization and confirm the way the port operates:

• We exemplify the highest ethical standards.
• We honor our commitments to our community.
• We are high-performers that value the privilege of public service.
• We embrace the richness of a diverse community.
• We are responsible stewards of community resources and the environment.
• We are mutually dependent and supportive of our partners.

In September 2012, the port commission adopted a mission statement that reads: "The Port of Everett is an economic development enterprise carrying out the public’s trust to manage and develop resources, transportation facilities, and supporting infrastructure to enable community opportunity."
