DENISON, Iowa (AP) - A western Iowa city council has approved returning three top employees to their jobs.

Denison City Manager Terry Crawford, City Clerk Lisa Koch and Fire Chief Cory Snowgren were put on administrative leave Dec 18. The council voted Tuesday night for their return to duty Wednesday.

The mayor and council members have declined to explain why the three were put on leave, saying it was a personnel matter . The attorney for Crawford and Koch says there was miscommunication between the three employees and the mayor about a piece of training equipment for the fire department.

Mayor Jared Beymer says the investigation isn’t finished yet.
