Bettendorf alderman appointed to state board

Iowa Gov. Kim Reynolds has appointed Bettendorf’s Second Ward Alderman Scott Naumann to the Iowa Workforce Development Board to represent the Mississippi Valley through April 30, 2026.

The Iowa Workforce Development Board oversees the development and implementation of the state’s workforce development plan and ensures that workforce regions throughout the state have the resources required to support employment programs, according to its website.

“As I talk to business leaders across our region, the No. 1 challenge they’re facing is recruiting and maintaining a strong workforce,” Mr. Naumann said in a news release issued by the City of Bettendorf. “I look forward to working with my colleagues across the state to address this critical priority.” 

Mr. Naumann was first elected to the Bettendorf City Council in 2009, and was appointed Mayor Pro Tem in 2019. He also is the director of business development for Point Builders, LLC, Davenport.
