(KMZA)--Two Nemaha County positions have been filled.
Mixie Vance has been hired as the county’s new Noxious Weed Director. Vance currently holds the same position in Jackson County. She is to begin work January 4.
Russ Lierz, of Seneca, has been hired as the county’s new Emergency Preparedness Director. Lierz currently works in the Road and Bridge Department.
They were offered the positions after being interviewed by the Nemaha County Commission this week.
Each will be paid a salary of $40,020 annually.
The positions came open following the resignation of long time county employee Todd Swart, which was effective December 3.
Swart served in both roles. However, the Commission decide to advertise for the positions as two separate jobs.
