JR Killham thrilled for opportunity as Public Works Director

 

JR Killham couldn’t be happier to be back home and take on the role of City of Lewistown Public Works Director.

A 1988 Fergus High School graduate and 20-year Century Construction employee, Killham has spent quite a bit of his 50 years in Lewistown, but after 15 years elsewhere he’s glad to be home.

A job with the Montana Department of Transportation brought Killham back to town in 2017, and he enjoyed the work, but the Public Works Director job intrigued him, so he threw his hat in the ring.
