–The Kossuth County Engineer will be stepping down next month to pursue an offer in the private sector. Doug Miller submitted his resignation to the Board of Supervisors prior to their meeting on Tuesday. Miller, who has served as County Engineer since January of 2009, says it was not a decision he made lightly.
Kossuth County has the highest amount of road miles of any county in Iowa, containing around 1,650 miles of primary and secondary roads. Miller says it takes a total team effort to maintain those roads year in and year out.
Miller says the Engineer’s office also receives a tremendous amount of information and input from the public regarding road conditions and construction projects.
Along with his duties as County Engineer, Miller also serves as Engineer for the Kossuth County Landfill and Transfer Station, and as the Administrator for the Kossuth County Self-Insurance Fund. His last day with the county will be October 16th.
