New Department of Public Works Director

Rogers City Hires Roger Wenzel to Head the Department of Public Works.

Today, Roger Wenzel becomes the Director of the Department of Public Works (DPW) for the City of Rogers City. Roger Wenzel replaces Bill Robin who is retiring, after 34 years with the City. Roger was the most successful of the five candidates interviewed for the position. The City received 19 applications for the job which pays a salary of between $46,000 and $50,000 depending on qualifications. Roger Wenzel showed the most positive attitude and energy of all those interviewed. Also, Roger had worked in our DPW for over ten years and had experience in all aspects of its operation. Due to financial limitation, the City is not planning to fill Roger Wenzel's previous position at this time.

Bill Robin did a great job leading DPW for over seven years, and he will be missed. Bill was well regarded by most everyone in Rogers City for his can-do approach, skill, & friendliness. Cake and farewell gifts will be presented to Bill Robin at 1:00 pm on June 24, 2008 at City Hall.

Bill and Karen Robin plans to live in Rogers City after retirement, and hope to spend more time with their grandchildren. City staff members wish Bill and Karen a wonderful retirement!
