The City Council unanimously confirmed Chadwicks appointment today. Scott Chadwicks mastery of City issues and operations, his calm leadership style, his positive working relationship with and respect for City employees, and his ongoing dedication to delivering high quality service to San Diegans make him the right choice for Chief Operating Officer, said Interim Mayor Gloria.

On Monday, the City Council unanimously approved a plan developed by Interim Mayor Gloria, Chadwick, and Walt Ekard which created three new executive management positions, formed a new Department of Planning, Neighborhoods and Economic Development, and instituted an aggressive approach to training talented employees through an annual series of leadership and management academies. In the COO position, Chadwick will succeed Ekard, whose last day at the City will be October 30. He is returning to private life. In the two months since I assumed the position of Mayor, Walt Ekard and Scott Chadwick have been my partners moving our City forward. These two gentlemen well represent the 10,000 City employees they lead in their consistent dedication to public service and the betterment of San Diego, said Interim Mayor Gloria. The City Council also proclaimed today Walter Francis Ekard Day in the City of San Diego in honor of his tremendous positive impact.
