Iowa Gov. Chet Culver has named Bret Mills as the state's new director of economic development.
Culver announced Mills' appointment on Monday, filling a position that has been the center of controversy over the handling of a tax credit program for movie makers.
Mills replaces interim director Fred Hubbell who was named to the position following the resignation of Mike Tramontina.
Tramontina resigned in September after Culver suspended the program after allegations of improper spending and sloppy bookkeeping in the Iowa Film Office.
