Continuously serving Kosciusko County since 1854
DeLynn Geiger, who was elected to the Kosciusko County Council in November 2024 as an at-large member, resigned after Thursday’s council meeting, effective Friday, Dec. 12.
Kosciusko County Republican Central Committee Chairman Mike Ragan announced Geiger’s resignation, saying Geiger handed him and County Clerk Melissa Boggs his resignation letter.
Details on a caucus to replace Geiger are being planned, potentially in early January, and will be announced as they become available. There are three years remaining on Geiger’s term.
According to the letter to Ragan from Geiger, Geiger wrote, “Although we have properties in both counties, my wife Lori’s employment and my son Graham’s growing involvement in the classic car community in Auburn leads us to spend more time at our farm in DeKalb County. Our family’s participation in car shows, ACD Automobile Museum events and other out-of-state tours have become a significant part of our lives, and I want to be present for these important family moments. This decision comes after careful consideration and is simply influenced by the increased challenge to dedicate the necessary time and attention required in Kosciusko County to serve in this capacity.”
His letter states he is grateful for the opportunity to serve on the council and appreciates the support he received from family and the community.
“I will do everything I can to ensure a smooth transition and am happy to assist in any way during this period,” Geiger’s letter concludes.
