GCNews September: GCC staff on the move

Kate Berry, GCC Program Director, has accepted a position with the City of Guelph’s Engineering and Transportation Department. Trained as a civil engineer, the move allows Kate to pursue her goal of attaining Professional Engineer status.

Kate joined GCC six years ago as Senior Manager of the Active and Safe Routes to School program and ends her tenure as Program Director of the Transportation and Water Departments. Kate was instrumental in landing and delivering the Ontario Active School Travel program, which established Ontario’s reputation as a leader in student well-being and school zone safety, and was used as a model by several provinces and states.

“Kate has been an incredible leader, and we will miss her presence, talent, intellect, and generosity,” says GCC Executive Director Brianna Salmon.

Other staffing changes

With Kate’s departure, Nicole Roach moves into the role of Manager – Sustainable Transportation. Charlotte Estey has been promoted to School Travel Planner, and Tianna Mighty has been promoted to Program Coordinator – Green Infrastructure.
