Winneconne will lose its village administrator to his hometown.
Mitchell Foster is taking the city manager job in Ludington, Michigan. He grew up there, and his family moved away when he was 16.
Foster says while he loves working for Winneconne, he couldn’t pass up the chance. He believes everybody would probably look at the opportunity as something pretty cool to be able to take advantage of.
Foster’s last day in Winneconne will be in about a month.
Looking back on his time with the village, he points to the new Main Street and bridge as a highlight. He says a few projects are in the works, including waterfront redevelopment and a hotel.
