Aid in Beaufort's planning revamp resigns

Martin.

While the two year role of The Lawrence Group's in helping the City of Beaufort with its redevelopment of codes and Civic Master Plan doesn't end until December, the local leader, Josh Martin, of the group has resigned.

The Office of Civic Investment's work will continue to be assisted by The Lawrence Group — The Island Packet offers some details in a report and notes that Martin is headed to a doctoral program in Washington D.C.

In 2008 Martin left his role as the director of the Charleston Department of Planning to pursue a Ph.D. at the University of Pennsylvania.
