ANALYSIS
Mr. Chartrand has been serving as the Acting Capital Improvement Projects (CIP)
Director since March 1, 2005. Prior to this position, Mr. Chartrand joined the CIP office
in 2001 and was promoted to CIP Assistant Director in 2002. Mr. Chartrand began his
career with the City of Miami Beach in 1996 in the Construction Management
Department. Prior to joining the City, Mr. Chartrand worked for Spillis Candela &
Partners, an engineering and architectural firm, since 1974.
In his positions with the CIP office, Mr. Chartrand has played a major role in the
development of a ClP plan; creating an effective structure for the management of the
ClP office; developing organizational capacity to manage CIP projects; developing
community infrastructure plans; delivering capital projects in accordance with the
implementation plan; and ensuring community involvement with projects.
Mr. Chartrand has done a great job in his role as Acting ClP Director and has proven to
be a valuable and effective leader. His continued commitment to the City and his
leadership in the ClP area will help ensure that the City continues achieving its goals.
CONCLUSION
Mr. Chartrand has already begun his assignments as the CIP Director. 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.
