With less than a year remaining in office, Sioux Falls Mayor Paul TenHaken decided it would be a good time to reflect on the history of his post by bringing his predecessors together.

TenHaken Thursday hosted a meeting featuring every living mayor, getting them together at City Hall to reflect on the office. And to show them around.

“We spent some time in my office, and we talked about how they had their office arranged,” TenHaken told The Dakota Scout. “You know, where they kept the desk, and they got to see the bathroom. You know, there’s a bathroom in the mayor’s office – and if it still looked the same.”
