MASON CITY – North Iowa Corridor / EDC Director Brent Willett told the city council Tuesday night that he is “tired” of the “overwhelming consensus” in the community regarding city council member Scott Tornquist’s performance as a North Iowa Landfill Board member. Â Some have said Tornquist alienated the board earlier this month when he lectured its members on the importance of OK’ing a long-term contract with a company called ERS.
“I take umbrage with that,” Willett said. Â “I’m tired of him being attacked for his approach.”
Tornquist only said one word at the deciding meeting, “yes.” Â The contract was defeated by the board.
