April 17, 2021 A member of the Mount Airy Board of Commissioners is taking on an additional leadership role with her appointment to a downtown organization that’s heavily involved in the Spencer’s redevelopment. Marie Wood will be joining the board of directors of Mount Airy Downtown Inc. — also known as MAD — via a unanimous vote by her fellow commissioners at a city council meeting Thursday night. Yet a lack of unanimity for what might normally be a routine appointment had surfaced earlier in the week when it was challenged by a man who ran unsuccessfully against Wood for a South Ward commissioner seat in the 2019 municipal election.
