Hunt for a city manager

West Des Moines officials have said they are reopening their search for city manager after the front-runner, Patrick Banger, withdrew his name from consideration. Ethical questions had been raised about his previous employment. Banger had been the favorite until an audit showed missing information on spending when he was city manager of O'Fallon, Missouri. Officials also questioned his position as a consultant for a Missouri nonprofit whose board he chaired. The city council now will retain Slavin Management Consultants to present new candidates in the next 45 days.
