Butler County auditor announces elections staffing change; board canvasses North Butler PPEL special election
Summary
Auditor Leslie Groen said Elections Deputy Matt Wilken accepted a conservation director post and Ellah Schell will be promoted; the board also canvassed the March 4 North Butler PPEL Special Election during the March 11 meeting.
Butler County Auditor Leslie Groen told the Board of Supervisors on March 11 that Elections Deputy Matt Wilken has accepted the Conservation Director position with Butler County Conservation and will leave the Auditor's Office.
Groen said Ellah Schell, currently Finance/Elections Clerk, will be promoted to Elections Deputy and that the now-open clerk position will be posted for hire.
The minutes also record that the board canvassed results of the March 4, 2025 North Butler PPEL Special Election during the meeting; the record does not include further details of vote totals or contested results.
Groen said the canvass agenda item was added to the published agenda after the 24-hour notice but was included because the canvass is required by law and the county followed Iowa Code procedures for the late addition.
