MYRTLE BEACH, SC (WMBF) - The Grand Strand Chamber of Commerce will be looking for a new leader, after the group's board of directors voted Tuesday to remove Mark McBride as president pending a final vote on Thursday.
The board voted Monday to remove McBride from the post; however, the vote has not yet been finalized. Grand Strand Chamber founder Ward Shepherd said the vote should be finalized at a 2 p.m. meeting on Thursday.
Shepherd cited irreconcilable differences between McBride and the board of directors as reasons for McBride's ouster.
In an interview Tuesday, McBride was defiant, saying he would not be fired as board president.
"There were discussions, yeah," he said. "There were motions without seconds; there were discussions without actions. There was no successful vote to remove me."
McBride said the decision is the board's to make, but if it were up to him he would remain on as president and he did not expect to be removed from the post.
No interim president has been appointed at this time, but Shepherd said the board is seeking a new qualified candidate for president of the board.
That didn't take long.I was counting on about 6 months to a year.
