Wright, Caulkins Appointed To  Seats

May 27, 2004 -- Council  member Bob Zoldos appointed two familiar figures to 
town commissions Tuesday  night.  
Kevin Wright, a Pershing Avenue resident who attends most council meetings,  
was named to finish the term of Planning Commissioner David Kennedy. Kennedy  
died of a heart attack while campaigning for Zoldos last month. Wright, who 
also  helped Zoldos in his failed campaign for mayor, is the son of former 
Leesburg  mayor B.J. Webb.  
Zoldos’ appointment to the Airport Commission was a bit more complicated. The 
 term of Stanley Caulkins, the longest serving member of the panel, was set 
to  end June 30. Rather than lose Caulkins’ expertise, Zoldos asked his 
previous  appointee, David Burton, to resign from the panel. Zoldos then 
proposed to  
appoint Caulkins to serve the remaining two years of that term. Caulkins was  
recognized for his long service to the airport earlier this month when the 
new  terminal building was named in his honor.
