Convention set to select new Brown Co Commissioner
10/01/2025

(KNZA)--The Brown County GOP will hold a convention Sunday evening to select a new 1st District county commissioner.

County GOP Chairman Chris Kroll said the convention will take place at 6:00 at the Carwell Building in Hiawatha. He said the doors will open at 5:30, for credentialing, as an ID will be required. The meeting is open to the public.

During the convention, members of the 1st District GOP precinct committee will elect someone to fill the vacancy created by the recent resignation of Rich Lehmkuhl.

Tuesday marked the Hiawatha Republican's last county commission meeting. Lehmkuhl had served on the Commission since January 2019.

The name of the person selected will be forward to Governor Kelly, who will make the official appointment.
