Michael Boehm, Lenexa’s longest-serving mayor, will retire after 20 years leading the city. Boehm is a lifelong resident of the city, and has seen the city’s population grow by nearly 20,000 residents since taking office in 2003. Under Boehm, the city took on a massive development project, relocating city hall and creating a new downtown district near I-435 and 87th street. “I think it’s turned out better than anyone could have imagined,” says Boehm of the Lenexa City Center.
