Mannhardt Steps Down from Knox County Board
Monday was the last board meeting for Knox County Board member Lowell Mannhardt.

Mannhardt, a Republican from district 4, has decided to step down from the board.

Before he left, however, board president Greg Bacon presented Mannhardt with a plaque of appreciation.

"This is to recognize Lowell Mannhardt, Knox Count Board Member Distirct 4, in appreciation of your years of dedication and commitment to the citizens of Knox County. Thank you for your service, November 29th, 2010."

Bacon and Mannhardt then joked about their "friendship."

Bacon:"I want to say that Lowell is a hell of a good guy, I've gotten to know him real well,"
Mannhardt: "We get along so well."
Bacon:"Yes we do, and I like Lowell."
Mannhardt:"Thank you."

A reception will also be held on December 13th at noon at the Knox County Nursing Home in honor of Mannhardt and his service on the nursing home committee.

Interim County Recorder Randy Storm was also thanked and honored at the meeting as well.
