Following an executive session Monday evening, the Commission unanimously approved the appointment of current Public Works Director Brad Scott to the interim role.
The Commission also voted to give Scott approval to advertise for a new full-time city administrator.

Scott has been with the city since 2005. He was appointed to the newly created position of Public Works Director in March of last year after serving as Water and Lights Superintendent since early 2018.
