I received the following press release today from City Hall.

Oshkosh, Wis. – The City of Oshkosh has selected Lynn Lorenson as their new City Attorney. “After reviewing the applications received Ms. Lorenson was far and away the best choice for the position of City Attorney,” said Acting City Manager John Fitzpatrick. “Her educational background, practical experience and familiarity with the legal history of the City of Oshkosh distinguished her above all other applicants.”
