A waste company executive and Democratic Party activist was hired as the executive director of the Broward County Charter Commission on Wednesday.
The choice of Carlos Verney was made during a lengthy meeting. Former Coconut Creek Mayor Lisa Aronson’s application for director was reconsidered and rejected, despite her initially not making the short list.
Hiring Verney to lead the group which will make recommendations on changes in Broward’s government is a reflection of the county’s growing diversity.
Verney, 30, was born in Bogota, Colombia, moved to South Florida and graduated from Marjory Stoneman Douglas High and Florida Atlantic University, where he received a masters in public administration. He lives in Coral Springs.
