SIOUX CITY — A swearing in ceremony for the newly elected Woodbury County Board of Supervisors members and other elected officials will take place Tuesday.
Republicans will continue to hold all five seats on the Woodbury County Board of Supervisors, as the GOP swept three contested races in November. Incumbent Mark Nelson and newcomers David Dietrich and Kent Carper each won four-year terms. The trio will be joined on the board by Republicans Matthew Ung and Dan Buttinger.
New County Auditor Michelle Skaff and Sheriff Chad Sheehan will also be sworn in on Tuesday.
The swearing in ceremony will take place at 9 a.m. on Tuesday in the board of supervisors basement room. The supervisors will then hold a regular meeting at 9:30 a.m.
Following the regular meeting, a dedication ceremony for the Dennis Butler meeting room will take place on the first floor at 10:30 a.m.
In September, the board of supervisors voted to rename the old Woodbury County Board of Supervisors office the Dennis Butler Meeting Room, dedicated to the county’s budget director, who who died of cancer on Aug. 21 at age 73.
