Aaron Huey approved as Dunkirk's new water plant supervisor

From the Board of Works meeting on September 14, 2026

Dunkirk's Board of Works approved Aaron Huey as the city's new Water Department supervisor Monday, filling a key utility role after one employee resigned and another part-time employee was terminated.

Mayor Jack Robbins told the board about the staffing changes before the vote. The transcript does not identify the departing employees by name, but it does clearly name Huey as the incoming supervisor and says his appointment takes effect the next day.

Huey was introduced again later during the City Council meeting so residents in that room would know he is taking over the job. The meeting record does not give his pay, his previous position, or whether the city changed any budget line to support the move.

The appointment still puts a new face in charge of the Water Department at a time when the city is discussing meter problems and other utility work.
