Ottawa residents will get a chance to meet the individuals vying to be the next city manager during a meet-and-greet event next week. The reception is scheduled from 5:30 – 7 p.m. Tuesday, Feb. 28, at the Bottle House, 204 S. Walnut. Commissioners will spend two days, Feb. 28 and March 1, to determine who will be one step closer to filling the vacancy. Ottawa City Manager Richard Nienstedt announced his intent to retire in mid-October after 15 years spent managing the city’s day-to-day operations. His last day will be March 31.
