As the city’s right of way technician, Kelly Matzke does a lot to help support the city on a daily basis. Matzke’s main objective is to work with utility contractors, such as Comcast, Century Link, Xcel Energy and CenterPoint Energy, to help provide safe, ethical and up-to-date services for residents.
Matzke spends a lot of time approving permits and meeting contractors out in the field to ensure that their work follows city ordinances. He can help answer questions about permits and contracts, but he can be a good resource to residents as well. “If a resident asks what is happening in the city or their neighborhood, I know exactly what is happening and the timeline for the work that is being done,” Matzke says.
