Colin Ryan took over the Ida County Engineer job on Oct. 11, following the retirement of his predecessor, Jeff Williams.
Ryan, who lives in Holstein with his wife and two daughters, said he is satisfied with how his first months have gone.

Ryan grew up just outside of Webster City, where he graduated from high school in 2011.
