ANALYSIS
Mr. Kleiman has 33 years of diversified experience in financial, administrative
management, and programmatic operations of mid to large organizations. Throughout
most of his career, he was a supervising manager with proven successes in budget
administration, financial and organizational analysis, and systems implementation.
The time spent at each job has afforded Keith a progressively, well-rounded knowledge
of revenue forecasting, trend analysis, expense and capital budget
preparation/administration, project and change management, human resource
management, long and short-range planning, procurement, and program/contract
administration.
Mr. Kleiman started his public sector career in 1981 with the New York City Department
of Health as a Staff Budget Analyst. After eleven years of service at the Department of
Health, in 1993, he accepted an offer to become Senior Budget Analyst with the New
York City Housing Authority. During his tenure at the Housing Authority, Keith was
progressed through such high level management positions as Assistant to Deputy
General Manager, Assistant Budget Director, and Deputy Budget Director. As a Deputy
Director, he was responsible for preparation and maintenance of 17,000 employee
personnel budget, zero-based staffing analyses, developed the NYC Housing Authority's
first formal budget planning and implementation process as part of a strategic plan to
improve operational efficiencies, as well as developed and implemented a NYC Housing
Authority-wide budget training program for approximately 1 ,000 employees.
In 2003, Mr. Kleiman was appointed as Budget Analyst with the City of North Miami,
Florida. Shortly after, he was promoted to Assistant Budget Administrator, and
eventually to Budget Director. While with the City of North Miami, Keith was responsible
for preparation and monitoring of approximately $170 million Operating Budget. He
564
experienced full Truth in Millage (TRIM) compliance for 7 fiscal years; implemented a 20
year cyclical capital infrastructure rehabilitation program for North Miami Water & Sewer
Fund; performed and implemented a zero-based staffing analysis for North Miami Fleet
Management Fund, whereby staff was successfully reduced from 19 to 11 with
significant increase in efficiency. He was also heavily involved in implementation of
EDEN Advanced Budgeting and Project Accounting system, which is the same financial
system used by the City of Miami Beach.
In 2010, Mr. Kleiman accepted a position of Budget Administrator with the City of Coral
Gables. In his short term there, he was able to successfully reduce both City's Operating
budget to remain in compliance with State mandated millage reductions with little to no
adverse effects on the City's services; implemented a revised Five-Year Capital
Improvement Programs in full compliance with Florida State Comprehensive Plan
requirements; implemented a near paperless budget process for Coral Gables that
initiated the implementation of a paperless accounts payable process, and identified and
corrected Coral Gables' past budget practices that allowed substantial negative fund
balances to be created in the City's capital improvement and enterprise funds.
Additionally, Mr. Kleiman successfully implemented EDEN Advanced Budgeting and
Project Accounting in Coral Gables as well.
Experience in both, the City of Coral Gables and the City of North Miami allowed Mr.
Kleiman to broaden range of the municipal activities in which he was involved. Working
for these municipalities has given Keith the opportunity to learn the disciplines
associated with resident services, e.g. Public Works, Water & Sewer, Building and
Zoning, Community Planning, Code Enforcement, etc.
As a manager and a supervisor, Mr. Kleiman puts a strong emphasis on responsive
customer service as well as a supportive work environment. His management practices
encourage a team spirit and openness to developing and implementing change
whenever possible.
CONCLUSION
Appointment of Keith R. Kleiman as the Director for the Office of Budget and
Performance Improvement will contribute to continuous efforts to improve the City's
overall financial health through implementation of a citywide performance management
process focusing on the development and implementation of the City's Strategic Plan by
aligning performance priorities, allocating associated resources, improving processes
and reporting results Citywide.
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 resolution consenting and
confirming Keith R. Kleiman as the Director of the Office of Budget and Performance
Improvement for the City of Miami Beach.
