On November 1, the Kansas City Field Office hosted Regional Administrator Denise Maes on a tour of the Robert J. Dole U.S. Courthousein Kansas City, Kan.

Maes thanked PBS Management and staff for taking the time to showcase GSA’s property portfolio and noted the important work of the Field Office to manage and maintain not just buildings but also stellar relationships with tenants. 

“It is great to be back in the Heartland,” Maes said. “I enjoyed meeting our team and seeing the dedication they have to their work, which is evident in not just how the properties are maintained, but the relationships with tenants.”

“Lindsey (Johnson) and Christine (Allen) take great pride in keeping things looking good and running smoothly in the building,” Kansas City Field Office Director Brian Wohletz said, adding that it was great to have the opportunity to meet with the Regional Administrator.

Acting Regional Commissioner David Rumsey praised the Dole Courthouse team and the great work on display throughout the tour, writing, “The pride you and your team take in our mission really shows.”
