Former NM Spaceport Director Now In Tampa

Rick Homans Is New President Of The Tampa Hillsborough Economic Development Corp

After being let go as the director of New Mexico's Spaceport America by incoming governor Susana Martinez (R), Rick Homans has moved across the country, accepting a position as the president of the Tampa Hillsborough Economic Development Corporation.

The Las Cruces (NM) Sun-News reports that Homans had been appointed by Governor Bill Richardson as the secretary of New Mexico Economic Development Department, as well as leading the state's Taxation and Revenue Department.

He had been forced to resign from his leadership position at the spaceport by Susana Martinez when she was elected governor. Tampa/Hillsborough officials said Homans' spaceport experience, as well as his work as in the state's cabinet, were among the reasons he was selected for the job.
