The board also welcomed its two newest elected officials to the board in Larry Landstrom of Axtell who replaced the retiring Jean Rush who went on off the board December 31. Ross Bruning of Minden also took his seat at the supervisor table after replacing the retired Dave McCroden. Both Rush and McCroden have served the county for 20 years.
