KANSAS CITY, MO. — The American Public Works Association (APWA) announced that
Susan Hann, P.E., PWLF, ICMA-CM, city manager of Palm Bay, Florida and a member of the
APWA Board of Directors, has been appointed to the Board of Directors of the Institute for
Sustainable Infrastructure (ISI).

Hann was appointed to the nine-member ISI Board of Directors by APWA
President Ed Gottko, PWLF of Westfield, New Jersey. The American Public Works
Association (APWA) is one of the three national engineering organizations that co-founded
ISI, with the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) and the American Council of
Engineering Companies (ACEC). The ISI is a non-profit 501 (c) 3 organization dedicated to
working with public and private owners, designers, contractors and materials/equipment
manufacturers and suppliers, to forge a new vision for sustainable infrastructure through
the use of the new ISI Envision™ rating system and other initiatives.

“We are pleased that Sue Hann has accepted the appointment to serve a three year term of
office, and I know she will be an effective governing board member and spokesperson for
the public interest and sustainable communities,” noted Gottko. “Her background is a perfect fit for the ISI Board – a city manager, a former public works director, an engineer, a planner, and an energetic mentor to many in the profession.”

Hann was appointed City Manager of Palm Bay, Florida in May, 2011 after 14 years of serving the city; five years as the Public Works Director, and nine years as the Deputy City Manager overseeing the Public Works Department, the Parks and Recreation Department, the Growth Management Department and Economic Development. Much of Hann’s 33-years of professional experience have been in local government public works.

In 2012, ISI launched Envision™ as a new comprehensive sustainable infrastructure system to assist planners, designers, owners and builders of infrastructure to rate projects in key areas of sustainability, such as quality of life, leadership, resource allocations, natural world and climate and risk. Envision™ is the product of a joint collaboration between ISI, and the Zofnass Program for Sustainable Infrastructure at Harvard University Graduate School of Design.
