City Of Lawrence Names Jeremy Willmoth Its New Finance Director

Former Winfield City Manager Jeremy Willmoth has accepted a job with the city of Lawrence.

His hiring to the position of finance director was formally announced Friday, according to a report from the Lawrence Journal World. His first day on the job is set for Nov. 19.

Winfield city commissioners, last month, entered into a separation agreement with Willmoth to end his tenure as city manager after less than two years.

Ending that agreement cost the city about $92,000 in severance and other money due to Willmoth.

A search is on for Willmoth’s replacement.
