There's a new face on the DeWitt County Board.
At its regular meeting this week, the DeWitt County Board unanimously approved the appointment of Clinton resident Scott Nimmo (Nim-mo) to fill a vacancy on the board. The long-time DeWitt County resident is excited to take a role in local politics.

The Clinton Democrat feels it's an important time for the County Board. Nimmo says the ongoing issues surrounding the Clinton Landfill are what really sparked his interest in the opportunity.
