Embattled Columbia Association CEO says she has ‘no other choice’ but to leave the organization

In the latest development in a controversy embroiling an organization that leads Maryland’s second largest city, Columbia Association CEO and President Lakey Boyd said she “has no other choice” but to ask the organization’s board to transition her out. The announcement comes less than a week after the Columbia Association’s board said that it is seeking to “improve the relationship and communications” between Boyd and board members, and presented a plan to the CEO “to accomplish that goal.”
