Chas Olson has been appointed executive director of the South Dakota Housing Development Authority.
Olson served as interim director of the agency since April. He previously served as the state’s director of rental housing development and worked as a housing development officer prior to his appointment. Before joining South Dakota Housing in 2014, he worked for seven years with Wells Fargo, concluding his employment as a branch manager in Madison, South Dakota.
“As interim director, Chas has been very proactive in reaching out to communities and working to roll out funding as quickly as possible,” said Gov. Kristi Noem in a press statement. “I am confident that he will continue to cut red tape and streamline state government for the people of South Dakota as executive director.”
