Kenneth K. Damgaard (1939-2012) was a licensed civil engineer and professional land surveyor with 35 years of experience in public service: 24 years with the Arizona Department of Transportation, 3 years with Pima County Department of Transportation, and 8 years with the City of Tucson. He was a member of the Asphalt Recycling and Reclaiming Association and served a decade as their Affiliate Chairman.

He graduated from the University of Arizona with a B.S. in Civil Engineering in 1964 and received an MBA from Northern Arizona University in 1982.
