The Port of Illahee is served by 3 commissioners, each elected to 6 year terms, with elections occurring every 2 years. When commissioners are appointed to complete an unfinished term, the position is to be open for election at the next election cycle.
The commissioners are non-pay/non-partisan. They do, however, receive a stipend for meetings and extra duties as compensation.

Eric Hall Born and raised amidst the steel mills and bridges of Pittsburgh, I joined the US Air Force in 2006. In three years, I rose to the rank of Staff Sergeant amid numerous destinations from Japan to Afghanistan as a Precision Measurement Equipment Laboratory technician. I left in 2014 to attend college full time. I moved to Illahee in 2020 as a way to get out of the city and get back to my outdoor roots. During my time in the Air Force, I embraced my love of computers and programming and focused on learning as much as I could. I’ve now turned that into my career and I’m fortunate that I get to work from home where my dog, Dexter, sits by my side while I work on code at City University of Seattle. I hope to be a conduit for this district’s residents and raise their concerns to whoever might listen. I believe Illahee has a chance to prosper as one of the great small ports if we can build the proper infrastructure to support it. I will work tirelessly to enact that vision and provide this community with the resources to succeed.
