In West Michigan, the city of Walker’s population has been booming, and DTE has invested in serving this growing community to help it continue to attract new families and fuel business growth. “In Walker, DTE is making sure our natural gas infrastructure meets the needs of our rapidly expanding city,” said Gary Carey, Mayor of Walker. “DTE’s investments are ensuring families and businesses always have access to the reliable natural gas they need to seamlessly support their daily lives.”
Many of the 150 DTE team members based in Walker are focused on the company’s efforts to upgrade the natural gas infrastructure in the region, which is helping ensure service remains safe and reliable for decades to come.
Plus, according to Mayor Carey, DTE’s commitment to Walker goes beyond serving the natural gas its residents and businesses rely on.
“Anytime you’re out in Walker, you see a DTE presence, and our residents know DTE and the company’s employees are there for them without ever having to think about it,” said Mayor Carey. “They are true partners and are involved in initiatives like our summer reading program and backpack distributions for our students. They’re part of the fabric of our community.”
