“I’m excited to join a great team of professionals dedicated to serving the citizens and businesses of Mauldin,” said Duncan. “It’s an honor to be entrusted by Mayor Merritt and the City Council to fulfill their vision and continue to propel the community forward. As a former resident of the city, my family and I are looking forward to calling Mauldin home again.”
He is a member of the International City/County Managers Association, American Planning Association, South Carolina City County Managers Association and the SC Municipal Human Resources Association.
