Taggart Wall, a management assistant for the City of Arkansas City and former Winfield city commissioner, will become the new city manager of Sterling next month, he announced Tuesday night at a City Commission meeting.
Wall said he resigned Tuesday morning, effective March 25.
Sterling is a small town northwest of Hutchinson, about halfway between that city and Great Bend. Its population is 2,328, according to the 2010 Census.
"I'm really excited for Taggart," said City Manager Nick Hernandez, who is Wall's supervisor and created the position that originally brought him to Ark City.
"He's done a lot of good work for the county and is going to be greatly missed."
Mayor Jay Warren agreed, but joked that Wall would be "just a phone call away."
"We appreciate everything you've done for us," said Commissioner Charles Tweedy III.
"I do not disagree," said Commissioner Jean Snell. "It's been a pleasure."
"I'm not sure I deserve these accolades," Wall said. "It's been a pleasure to work with you all. Cowley County will always be a special place."
Wall was elected to a four-year term in 2009 as a Winfield city commissioner. He was 20 years old at the time and his election made state headlines. He had run for the same office two years prior, but did not win.

Coimbatore Corporation at its urgent council meeting on Monday resolved to construct a retaining wall along the Muthannankulam. A resolution passed at the meeting said that the wall would be constructed at a cost of Rs. 72.60 lakh.
Another resolution passed at the meeting proposed to construct a 40-foot scheme road from the Avinashi Road in front of the National Model School. Following a Supreme Court directive, the corporation would acquire 20 feet land from three persons to lay the road. The corporation decided to address the problem of open defecation. A resolution passed said that the corporation would conduct various competitions for children on the ill effects of open defecation. Awareness programmes would be organised to stop the practice. The corporation allotted a few shops to the differently abled, cancelled a few rental agreements for default in payment, and decided to install LEDs on arterial roads in the city.
The corporation decided to use two acres on the Vellalore-Podanur Road to construct a bus terminus.

McKINNEY -- Larry Duncan has seen his backyard wall go from cracking to crumbling in a matter of two years.
The McKinney resident from the Heatherwood subdivision is afraid one morning his backyard is going to cave in.
Every day, more and more comes down, Duncan said, referring to the stones that hold up his wall.
He likens his backyard wall to a ticking time-bomb. The trouble is, when this bomb goes off, I dont have an answer to what Im going to do next, Duncan said.
He said he shouldnt be individually responsible for a wall that is one, poorly made, and two, shared by dozens of other homes.
Duncan claims he has exhausted all options. The city of McKinney said it is not city property.

LOS ANGELES -- The transformation started simply enough, with a molded ceramic tile of a flower framed by Celtic tracery.
Neither Aziz nor Louise Farnam can recall now where they found the periwinkle square, but at their son Amiels urging, they glued it to the upper-left corner of a low concrete retaining wall in front of their 1930s bungalow in Santa Monica, Calif.
Both had seen the elaborately tiled mosques and mausoleums in Isfahan, in their native Iran. It didnt take long before they were scrounging in Southland secondhand stores, Catalina boutiques and Las Vegas casino shops for more tiles, plates and figurines.
They collected pieces of cobalt blue, aqua, plum and yellows from pale to sunny. They broke or cut them with special nippers into irregular shapes and applied those to the wall, letting them radiate in no particular pattern from the original piece.
They finished that wall, then tiled the walkway to the front door.
From there, things escalated to a traffic-stopping degree. Motorists routinely slam on their brakes to marvel at the eccentric artistry.
"Everyone knows my house," Louise said. "Just say mosaic tile house in Santa Monica."
About 13 years have passed since the couple set that first tile, and now the entire house on California Avenue at 26th Street is a shimmering montage that beckons the curious.
One morning a few weeks ago, Aziz, 65, fitted bits of plates, floor tiles and orange hearts on the last remnant of bare wall near the two-car garage. A school of whimsical ceramic fish each planted in the center of a tile adorned with circles of blue, green, tan, white and red glass beads swam through the section.
Aziz pointed above the fish, to a colorful bird plate. Atop it he had stationed a turkey. Both objects were treasures from Santa Catalina Island, saved for this crowning moment and placed high for their protection.
