After more than a decade a chairman of the Dawson County Planning Commission, Dick Bergen conducted his last meeting on Feb. 16. To commemorate his 12 years of service, he was presented with a plaque by Dawson County Board of Commissioners Chairman Mike Berg, a longtime friend who appointed Bergen to the position. "Dick is a multi-talented friend that provided service to Dawson citizens by his long tenure as chair of the planning and zoning commission and advice to me in telecommunication and other matters," Berg said.
