Rosemount City Council Selects Logan Martin as City Administrator

The Rosemount City Council will vote next week to finalize an agreement to appoint Logan Martin as the next city administrator. The Council decided on Nov. 5 to offer him the top staff position with the city. Martin has served in positions with communities in the Twin Cities east metro area. He is currently the City Administrator of Bayport in Washington County, which he joined in 2013, according to a news release.

While there, he has supervised budgeting and operations, including construction of a new fire station and work on economic development projects.

Before his work in Bayport, he served Oakdale as Community Development Specialist and as an Administrative Intern.

Martin earned a Master of Public Administration degree from Hamline University, with a graduate certificate in economic development. He earned a Bachelor in Political Science and Criminal Justice degree from Gustavus Adolphus College.

Martin was among four finalists interviewed last week by the City Council. The finalists were selected out of 39 applicants for the position. The position will be open late this year with the retirement of Dwight Johnson after eight years as Rosemount’s city administrator.

The employment contract for the new city administrator will be on the agenda for the Nov. 4. City Council meeting. If it is approved, Martin will start his work with Rosemount on Jan. 3.
