Buckeye’s City Council selected its next city manager, replacing longtime manager Stephen Cleveland.

Roger Klingler officially got the job Tuesday night, though he has served as Buckeye’s interim city manager since last August.

Klingler’s experience also includes ten years as the assistant city manager in Scottsdale, as well as the general manager of Water Resources and Intergovernmental Relations there.

Buckeye Mayor Jackie Meck described Klingler as “a skilled and respected professional city administrator.”
