After two decades, Lenexa’s longest-serving mayor announced Tuesday that he will not seek another term in November. Mayor Michael Boehm was first appointed to lead the city in January 2003, when he was elected to serve the last three months of Mayor Joan Bowman’s term as she stepped away due to health concerns. He was elected in April 2003 and won four subsequent unopposed elections. In 2022, the League of Kansas Municipalities presented Boehm with the E.A. Mosher Excellence in Local Government Award, which honors officials who have shown exceptional service to their cities and the league as well as a strong commitment to local government.
