Mayor Seminary talked about Generations “squared” – entrepreneurs and start-ups, “Back to the Future” and how the past parallels the present, facilitating transition, growth, partnerships, innovation, diversity and sustaining our community well into the future.

Mayor Seminary presented Bill Wocken, City Administrator with a statuette of an Eagle bearing the words “For your vision, focus, sacrifice and leadership, all of Bismarck says thank you,” in honor of his 43 years of dedicated service. All in attendance stood and applauded to recognize him. Wocken plans to retire in the spring of 2016.
