(KNZA)--A new Hiawatha Police Chief has been appointed.
The Hiawatha City Commission voted Monday evening to appoint longtime Police Department Investigator Mickey Gruber to the position.
Gruber has also been serving as acting Police Captain since the resignation of Dennis Entriken in February. As captain, he has been handling the duties of police chief.
Hiawatha has been without a police chief since the termination of John Defore in December.
The Commission also approved the re-appointments of Ted Collins as Municipal Judge; Andy Delaney as City Attorney; Lacey Conlin as City Treasurer; and Patrick Sheldon as Fire Chief for two-year terms.
In other business, the Commission approved the appointment of Leland Hansen to the Morrill Library Board of Trustees to fill an unexpired term until 2024.
