(KAIR)--A Horton City Commissioner has resigned.
That word comes in the agenda for a special Monday evening, June 25 meeting of the Commission.
According to the agenda, the Commission will consider possible action following the resignation of Parks and Recreation Commissioner Jeremy Forkenbrock.
The issue is listed on an amended agenda for the meeting, which was to focus on the future of the Interim City Administrator Position following the Commission's decision to remove Kim Knudson from that role.
Forkenbrock was among the three Commissioners who voted 3-2 to make that move during the Commission's June 18 meeting.
Forkenbrock, in his letter of resignation, doesn't outright say why he resigned; however, he does outline a proposal he says he put before Mayor Bryan Stirton, following the vote, to not only retain the City Clerk position, but to add to it the responsibilities of Economic Development, meaning the City Clerk's salary would be restored to the current wages of serving as both City Clerk and Interim City Administrator. Forkenbrock, in the letter, states that proposal would not cost the city more, as it would be funded by economic development dollars proposed by an unspecified local organization.
No reason has been stated as to why Knudson was removed from the administrator's role. She retains her position as Horton City Clerk, but in a June 19 email to MSC News, Knudson said she had not yet made a decision if she will continue in that position.
Also on the agenda for Monday evening's meeting is discussion focused on the repair of the Horton Sewer Plant.
The meeting begins at 6:30 at Horton City Hall.
