Chad
Minor brings over 11 years of public and private sector planning
experience to LANDgevity. Chad held Senior Land Development Planner
and Senior Economic Development Specialist positions with the City
of Lakewood, Colorado’s fourth largest City for over 7 years
before coming to Florida to continue his planning career in the
private sector. His tenure at the City allowed Chad to take on a
multitude of diverse land planning cases that included lead planner
for the Belmar Redevelopment project that transformed a declining
indoor shopping mall situated on 100 acres into the City’s
new “downtown” that has been the |
|
| entertainment, employment and major economic development generator for the community. In 2004, Chad had an opportunity to come on board with the Urban Resource Group, a division of Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc. to assist with planning projects that were brought on by the tremendous growth that Florida was experiencing at the time. Moving his family from Colorado to Florida has benefited Chad by allowing for opportunities to work on a diverse range of land planning and development projects ranging from 100 acre mixed use centers to 8,000 acre planned communities. Chad holds a Bachelor of Science degree in Urban Planning from Northern Arizona University and has obtained American Institute of Certified Planners (AICP) and LEED Green Associate certifications. He also is Vice-Chair of the Sarasota-Manatee sub-section of the Florida American Planning Association and is a graduate of the University of Georgia’s Fanning Leadership Institute. Chad enjoys spending time with his wife and his two young boys and maintains a strong faith and commitment to family values. Though Chad did not quite fulfill his childhood aspirations of becoming third baseman for the St. Louis Cardinals, he continues pursue his passion for the game by playing in the Manatee County Adult Baseball League. |
