Mayor Whiteing- goodbye and hello

Devlun Whiteing says goodbye to the Mayor position of Ida Grove and Hello to the supervisor position of Ida County. Whiteing has served six years as Mayor of Ida Grove. When asked what was the most interesting part of being mayor, he responded it was the staffing. When Whiteing became Mayor, the city had just lost some valuable long-term people, so he was left with building staff. Whiteing states that we did not have a city clerk and had one city hall person. We tried a city administrator but it did not work out. Now we have a great staff and good group of councilmen.
