Ellis County Administrator Greg Sund offered few details Monday about the possibility of leaving the community.

Sund was considered one of three finalists for the city manager position in Minot, N.D., and and one of four finalists for a similar position in Hood River, Ore.

Speaking Monday on KAYS Radio, Sund said he “just decided to take a shot at these two (jobs),” but declined further comment.

He also confirmed he has been eliminated from consideration for the city manager position in Minot.

Sund has served as Ellis County’s first administrator since 2010. He spent much of the last two weeks traveling to North Dakota and Oregon during the interview process for the positions.
