Indiana State Comptroller Elise Nieshalla gathered a 14-member council to the Statehouse Tuesday to launch her first State Comptroller Advisory Council. Nieshalla, a former local official, understands the importance of the relationship between state, county, and local government, and reinstated the Advisory Council, hosted by former Auditor Connie Nass (1999-2007).

Comprised of local government officials from around the state, the appointed council members will serve a two-year term to provide feedback to enhance the local government services provided by the office.

Marshall County Auditor, Angie Birchmeier is a member of the advisory council.
