METRO President and CEO, George Greanias has announced plans to resign from his post on December 31, 2012. Greanias has been leading the transit agency for the past two and half years. He was recruited as CEO after heading Houston Mayor Annise Parkers METRO Transition Team. Greanias goals when he first took the job included reorganizing top management of the agency, getting METROs rail construction program back on track and securing $900 million in federal funding for the rail program. Thanks to a talented and dedicated staff and support from the METRO Board, we have accomplished those major goals for METRO, Greanias said. Now is the right time for me to step down and create the next chapter in my career. Earlier this month at the Greater Houston Partnerships State of METRO luncheon Greanias highlighted a long list of METRO accomplishments including: Resolving METROs Buy America issues Addressing Federal Transit Administration concerns over METRO procurements Placing the General Mobility Program on a pay-as-you go basis Fostering a culture of openness and transparency METRO Chairman Gilbert Garcia applauded Greanias accomplishments and looks forward to finding the next great leader for the agency. George has done an outstanding job of turning things around at METRO and focusing on openness and transparency. We look forward to a smooth transition, Garcia said. The Board will meet on Thursday, December 20th, to discuss options for selecting an interim CEO and, ultimately, finding a new president and CEO. Greanias is a former Houston city councilmember, city controller and management consultant. He expressed great appreciation for the hard work of METROs 34-hundred employees and the communitys support for METRO. One of my career highlights now includes my time at METRO and working with a talented group of people who work every day to provide the best transit services for this region, Greanias said.
