Afton

The Afton City Council hired a new part-time deputy clerk during its Feb. 16 meeting.

After office manager Connie Slaten retired at the end of December, the city council decided to advertise for a deputy clerk rather than an office manager since the addition of assistant city administrator Sara Irvine relieved many of the duties.

Slaten’s replacement is Hudson, Wisc. resident Connie Nelson.

Will Connie 2.0 live up to the city’s expectations?
