Quinn names Illinois Commerce Commission member
Published: 10/27/2009 12:00 AM
Gov. Pat Quinn has appointed a vice president for the Illinois Association of Community Action Agencies as a new member of the Illinois Commerce Commission.
The 62-year-old John Colgan was named to the post Monday.
His appointment fills a vacancy left on the five-member commission when Robert Lieberman resigned in May. It is subject to approval by the Illinois Senate.
Colgan, who lives in Springfield, is a former founding director of the Illinois Hunger Coalition.
Quinn says Colgan will bring a consumer-based focus to a state commission that determines utility rates. Colgan will serve a five-year term.
According to a state Web site, the job pays about $117,000 a year.
Colgan says he's honored to be chosen.
