During a meeting in April, The Abilene City Commission and Mayor Brandon Rein approved the appointment of Ron Marsh as the new Abilene City Manager. Marsh started his new position June 1 with hopes to help the local community. “I came to the city management profession a little bit later in life,” Marsh said. Long before joining city services, Marsh spent five years in the Army and had several jobs inside the private sector. He started his career in city and county management in Sedgwick County as a public works administrative assistant. “I came to really like public service and really like working with the public,” Marsh said. “Granted, it can be frustrating at times, but it’s a lot more fulfilling than it ever is frustrating.”
