Commerce City City Council on Monday appointed Robert Sheesley as city attorney to replace Robert Gehler, who had served in that position since 1968 and retired earlier this year.

Sheesley has been serving as interim city attorney since April. His appointment followed a competitive search process.

Sheesley, who has been senior assistant attorney for Commerce City since October 2014, will serve as the primary legal counsel to city council, boards and commissions, city management and departments. He has been an attorney for more than a decade in the public and private sectors.
