Glenn Rodden New City Administrator for Baldwin City

We wanted to take this opportunity to congratulate Glenn Rodden who is set to become Baldwin City’s next city administrator after a unanimous vote by the city council. Both sides found the opportunity to be an ideal fit with Glenn’s 16 years of experience as a city administrator in cities of similar size. Additionally, Baldwin City was attracted to Glenn’s experience with and preference for a city that owns its utilities, like Baldwin City.

Glenn originally hails from a small town outside of Chicago and graduated from Northern Illinois University with undergraduate and master’s degrees in public administration. After serving as assistant city manager of Streator, Ill, and then interim city manager, Glenn made Kansas his new home when he accepted the city administrator position in Seneca. Glenn later became city manager in Holton and most recently, city administrator in Beloit, where he has served since 2009.

Glenn will begin his duties in Baldwin City February 1. Please join us in congratulating Glenn on his new position as city administrator for Baldwin City.
