Brian Keller, a 1984 graduate from Halstead High School, has been hired as the new city administrator for Sedgwick and will begin on Nov. 22. Keller has spent the last twenty years living in Wamego and working for the State of Kansas with most of that Department of Revenue as a taxation agent. He recently transferred to Wichita and has lived in Halstead for the last few months. Sedgwick Mayor Bryan Chapman said that Keller’s local ties and his interest in living in Sedgwick were factors in his higher, as were his people skills and his ability to communicate. Chapman said he interviewed very well. “He’s very easy to talk to,” Chapman said. “I think he’ll work well with both the public and our employees, getting a feel for what’s going on and I think he’s anxious to learn. I think he’ll be very involved in all aspects of the community.”
