( KNZA )-The Doniphan County Commission is considering a new dual position.
Commission Chairman Terry Horner Monday asked for the board’s consideration in hiring an employee to serve both as economic development director and county administrator for Doniphan County.
Horner said the successful candidate would strive to increase the tax base by bringing new businesses into the county while retaining existing businesses. In addition, he said the position would serve in a supervisory roll over non-elected officials and departments.
Commissioners Jerry McKernan and David Van Laar were in agreement to look at a dual position employee, with Commissioner Van Laar volunteering to draft a concept plan for the position.
