Just had the tidbit that David Reiss, who is currently ED of the Central SD Enhancement District, has been named Executive Director of the South Dakota Municipal League.
Reiss will be succeeding Yvonne Taylor who will be retiring, but who I’m told will be continuing Lobbying for the Muni League this next session.
Yvonne is retiring already? It must be good to be in the Municipal League.. Congratulations to Yvonne for what probably isn’t going to actually be retirement, as much as moving on to new challenges.
I’m told Reiss is going to have a salary of about 150k when he assumes his new position.
Stay tuned..
He will be a 180 from Yvonne. Head scratcher of a pick.
Congrats to Yvonne for her 52 years of work during the last 26. 🙂
Dont let the door hot ya on the way out!
Good riddance
Is your name “Heve Staugard?”
Yvonne was always fair even with a titanium backbone and on any bill she testified always wanting her on your side. Last years HB 1076 was made better and more encompassing for cities to easily change their form of governance with her help and I appreciated that.
The best always to you Yvonne!
She will be missed! A great advocate her cause and could always navigate the legislature. Granted it’s been harder to do with all these power hungry cry babies the last decade or so but she hung in there.
