Outgoing Brown Co Commissioner Steve Roberts was presented with a plaque Monday in recognition of his 20 years of service to the county.
(KNZA)--Longtime Brown County Commissioner Steve Roberts stepped down from the Commission Monday after 20 years representing the 1st District.
Roberts sent the last two years as commission chairman.
Fellow Commissioner Keith Olsen presented a plaque to Roberts in honor of his service to the county. A public reception was held for him following the meeting.
Roberts lost his bid in November for re-election to a fifth term to Richard Lehmkuhl, who will be sworn in next Monday as the new 1st district commissioner.
A longtime county employee, who is retiring, was also recognized during the meeting.
Olsen presented a plaque to Deputy Register of Deeds Charlene Chellew in honor of her more than 29 years of service to the county. Her last day will be January 18. Chellew started in the county appraiser’s office before moving to the register of deeds office.
Register of Deeds Nellie Brockhoff introduced new employee, Deana Long, who has been hired to replace Chellew. Long began work Monday.
