NORFOLK, Neb. -- Thursday morning, the City of Norfolk announced the appointment of Kylee Soderberg as the new City Clerk, pending council approval. 

Soderberg has worked for the city since 2021 as an Administrative Assistant, and then in early 2024 she transitioned to Benefits and Compensation Manager. 

“Kylee has demonstrated an outstanding commitment to excellence in her work thus far with the City of Norfolk," said Mayor Josh Moenning. "Her experience, enthusiasm, and energy position her well to take on the responsibilities of city clerk. We’re excited to have her step into this important administrative position."

As City Clerk, Soderberg will oversee the administration of city records, manage public inquiries, and ensure that city operations comply with state and local regulations.

"I am honored to step into the role of City Clerk and continue serving our amazing community," Soderberg said. "I look forward to working closely with our city leadership, council members, and residents to keep things running smoothly and build on the strong foundation of our city and continue to move forward in a positive direction."

Soderberg succeeds Brianna Duerst, who recently transitioned to the Planning & Development Manager position within the Planning and Development Division.

“In Kylee’s time with the city she has proven herself to be an organized, efficient and self-motivated member of the team,” said City Administrator Andy Colvin. “She has a strong desire to continue serving citizens in new ways, as well as evolve the clerks' duties to best serve Norfolk well in the future.”

The Mayoral appointment is set to come before the City Council for approval at the first meeting in October.
