Her most recent role was assistant planner for the city of Grimes. She earned a bachelor of science degree from Iowa State University in community and regional planning, with a minor in environmental studies.
“I am so grateful for this opportunity to work for the City of Perry and its community!,” Milosevich “I hope to use my previous work experience in development to provide a new perspective and assist in growing the community’s vision. It’s a really unique time for Perry, but I think the city has a lot of potential and I am so excited to be a part of exploring that.”
