Meet Rob Lucas, our Parks Facility Maintenance Foreman! 

Rob does a lot of the behind-the-scenes work to keep our facilities running smoothly, from repairing concession stand equipment to maintaining HVAC systems. While his office is at the WREC, he travels to all the facilities to repair and maintain whatever is needed. 

Rob loves the challenge that this job brings him and that he is always learning new things every day. He says, “One of the best decisions I made was to work for the City of Wentzville, it’s a great organization and anybody who’s looking to not only have a job but a career, this would be the place for them to be.”
