Ogden Administrator

OGDEN, Iowa---Hopes by the Ogden City Council to name a new city administrator did not work out Tuesday. City officials had conducted interviews with five-candidates over the past couple of weeks. Council Member Brian Reimers says an offer was made to one of the candidates, but the differences over salary and other costs were just to great to overcome. Reimers told the Council Tuesday that the city's offer was rejected, just hours before the Council meeting. Council Members will review the situation but agree that additional staff is needed to help City clerk Deb Vigdal.
