KCAU: Woodbury County Supervisors Race Adds Candidate

A Morningside College grad is entering the race for a contested Woodbury County Supervisor's position.

On Tuesday Alex Waters submitted almost 300 signatures to the Woodbury County auditor and announced he's seeking the Democratic nomination for the county's 4th district seat.

One issue Watters says he plans to focus on is working on economic development so young professionals will want to stay in Sioux City.

"I think that as a state and as a county we're moving in that direction and I think we're doing a great job educating our young professionals here in Woodbury County with all the great schools we have here. I just wanna make sure that they're not leaving to go elsewhere in the region or even on the costs."
