County administrator resigns post

St. Croix County Administrative Coordinator Chuck Whiting submitted his resignation Tuesday.

Whiting said he has been hired to serve as City Administrator for the city of Faribault, Minn. He starts his new job Jan. 1.

Whiting was hired in St. Croix County in February 2000 after the resignation of John Krizek. He, his wife Heidi and family, live near Roberts.

“It has been great being with the County these past 10 years and I sincerely wish everyone the best going forward,” Whiting said.

St. Croix County Board Chair Daryl Standafer said Wednesday that, with regrets, he accepted Whiting’s resignation.

“While disappointed that we will lose his thoughtful and diligent leadership, we certainly wish him well in his new role in Faribault,” Standafer said. “St. Croix County’s loss is Faribault’s gain, and we have only high regard for Chuck and Heidi as they transition to new responsibilities.”

Before coming to St. Croix County he was city administrator in Moundsview, Minn.
