Mark Detter says he sees a lot of potential, which is why he moved back to Kansas to become Emporia’s next assistant city manager. Detter tells KVOE News Emporia is in a solid economic position, in large part because of its manufacturing base. Detter also sees Emporia’s educational base and events as attractions for people wanting to spend time here. Detter has been serving as the city manager in Valdez, Alaska, but he also has been a prior city administrator in Rose Hill and Andover — bedroom communities for the Wichita area. He says his experience in those settings will help him here.
