DANA POINT : Conway Named to Head Harbors Board
Prominent local businessman Ed Conway has been named chairman of the Orange County Harbors, Beaches and Parks Commission.
Conway was elected chairman last week by the seven-member commission, which oversees a $12-million budget for the county’s 12 regional parks, three harbors, and a large network of beaches and community parks.
Conway said he is looking forward to handling a busy agenda and “helping the process flow smoothly.”
“We’ve got a lot of interesting projects coming up the next year and I’m happy to have the opportunity to chair this commission,” he said.
The new chairman is a four-year veteran of the commission. He was appointed to the county group by Orange County Supervisor Thomas F. Riley. Conway served as vice president of the commission in 1989.
A 13-year resident of Dana Point, Conway has served the city in several capacities, including his appointment to the year-old city’s first Economic Development Commission.
He has been heavily involved in other community organizations, including the Dana Point Chamber of Commerce, of which he was elected president in 1986.
