A RESOLUTION OF THE MAYOR AND THE CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY
OF MIAMI BEACH, FLORIDA, CONSENTING TO THE APPOINTMENT OF
TIMOTHY D. HEMSTREET AS CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROJECT
DIRECTOR
Subject:
ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION
Pursuant to the requirements of Article IV, Section 4.02 of the City Charter it is recommended that
the Mayor and City Commission adopt the attached Resolution consenting to the appointment of
Timothy D. Hemstreet as Capital Improvement Projects Director.
ANALYSIS
Mr. Hemstreet has been serving as my Special Assistant since April 2001 and as Interim Capital
Improvement Projects (CIP) Director since July 2001. In his capacity as the CIP Interim Director,
Mr. Hemstreet has played a major role in the development of a CIP plan; creating an effective
structure for the management and coordination of the CIP; developing organizational capacity to
manage CIP projects; developing community infrastructure plans; delivering capital projects in
accordance with the implementation plan; and ensuring public participation in all projects.
Mr. Hemstreet has done a great job in his role as the Interim CIP Director and has proven to be
a valuable and effective leader. His continued commitment and leadership in this area will help
ensure that the City of Miami Beach accomplishes the goals we have identified for our Capital
Improvement Projects.
Prior to joining the City of Miami Beach, Mr. Hemstreet came to us with almost 10 years of publiC
administration experience, having served as the Assistant City Manager for the City of Tamarac
and holding positions with the City of Hollywood, Florida and Charlottesville, Virginia. Tim has
both a Master in Public Administration and a Bachelor of Science in Political Science from James
Madison University in Virginia.
CONCLUSION
As you know, Mr. Hemstreet has been formally introduced to the City Commission and has
already begun his assignments. While in most Council/Manager governments, Managers are
typically granted broad authority to select key department heads; an old provision of our charter
requires consent by Commission. Therefore, this recommendation is for consent.
