City Officials
City Council 3rd Ward
Marc Rowan
Term
December 2022 through December 2026
Marc and his wife, Mindee, have lived, served, and prayed for the community of Hastings for the past three decades. He spends most of his free time with his family consisting of two grown children and their spouses, his wonderful daughter in elementary school, and is embracing being a new grandpa with his first grandchild. You've likely seen him around town riding his Harley and serving his community through his participation in Leadership Hastings, the Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors, the Eagle Scout Board of Review, the Patriot Guard, and through his involvement in numerous local churches. Marc is passionate about his town of Hastings and hopes to represent the diverse voices of its citizens by challenging the status quo and encouraging essential dialogue between the Council and its citizens.
Maggie Esch
Term
December 2024 through December 2028
I’m Maggie Esch, and I've proudly called Hastings home all of my life. As a fourth-generation small business owner, I’m deeply invested in the growth and success of our community. With a background in economic and talent development, entrepreneurship, and quality-of-life initiatives, I’m passionate about making Hastings a thriving community. I strive to create opportunities for locals and businesses ensuring that Hastings continues to be a great place to live, work, and raise a family.
Since entering the professional world, I’ve been actively involved in the Hastings community, both in my professional roles and through volunteer efforts. While motherhood and running a full-time business have shifted my priorities, staying engaged in the community has remained a constant focus. I currently serve on the Schnase 1906 District and Give Hastings Day boards, am a member of Hastings Young Professionals, and coordinate Big Idea Hastings. These opportunities allow me to contribute to the growth and vibrancy of our community in meaningful ways.
My husband and I co-own Vaughan’s Printing Co. Together, we are raising two young children. In our free time, we love spending time with friends and family, taking walks to the park, and enjoying the charm of Downtown Hastings.
I look forward to working to make Hastings even better for everyone who lives and works here.
