Mindy Benson
On the heels of one of the most challenging years for public safety in recent memory, Tama County will be in search of a new Emergency Management Coordinator.
The Tama County Emergency Management Commission accepted the resignation of Mindy Benson during a meeting on Feb. 9.
Benson started work in Tama County during the fall of 2013 and up until 2020, served as both the Emergency Management Coordinator and the E-911 Director for the county.
Last year the Emergency Management and E-911 departments split into separate departments with Benson heading the EMA department and Jeremy Cremeans coming on as the Communications Director and heading the 911 department.
