For the fourth time, in as many school years, Kasson-Mantorville will have a new superintendent, after Superintendent Ted Ihns announced his resignation from the school district effective the end of school year. 
The announcement came during the district’s organizational meeting on Monday night. 

Dodge County commissioners last week passed the ordinance regulating the operation of cannabis businesses in the county as the state prepares to issue licenses for the businesses in 2025.
The ordinance deals with the registration of cannabis businesses, including compliance checks prior to retail registration and annually, the application submittal process and fees and limits on the number of businesses permitted in the county.

Changes to Dodge Center ambulance staffing and a public hearing on the city’s cannabis ordinance were on the agenda last week at the last meeting of 2024 for the City Council.
