Repairing water fountains. Fixing garage doors. Cleaning air conditioner units. The four full-time facility maintenance technicians working for the City of Lenexa’s Municipal Services Department do it all. For Bobby Lyon, though, it’s more than keeping things in working order. His job is about helping others, learning new skills, and seeing his handiwork across the city. Growing up, Bobby recalls how his dad was super handy. “If we had something and it broke, our options were to fix it or do without,” Bobby said. As a young kid, Bobby not only saw his dad repair what was broken, but he also saw him take parts and make them into something.
