AUSTIN, Minn. – Austin Utilities Employment Relations Director Kim Duncomb is retiring.
After 20 years with the company, Duncomb will step down on January 31 and be replaced by Dan Ulland.
“We want to wish Kim the best in her retirement, and we appreciate the service she has provided to the community,” says Mark Nibaur, General Manager at Austin Utilities.

In 2020, Austin Utilities had zero OSHA recordable incidents. Duncomb was also responsible for recruiting and hiring of staff over the last 20 years.
Introducing the Inaugural Class of Best Buy Scholars
Every young person deserves an opportunity to pursue their dreams, but not everyone gets the same access to resources they need.
That s why we created the Best Buy Scholars program, which provides college scholarships for diverse students. It s part of our broader $44 million commitment to expand college prep and career opportunities for BIPOC (Black, Indigenous and People of Color) students.
We are excited to welcome the first six scholars, each of whom will receive an internship and mentorship along with their scholarship.
