Troy Tinch
City of Temple Terrace Utilities Director
Temple Terrace, Florida
I am currently the Utilities Director for the City of Temple Terrace, a small municipality located within the Tampa Bay Area. The City provides potable water and wastewater collection services for approximately 9,000 residential and commercial customers. The first half of my 27 plus year career was spent in the private sector as an Environmental Scientist, where I specialized in the fields of wetland ecology and habitat restoration. In 2010, I moved into the public sector and have been working in the Public Works and Utilities arenas ever since, having been a Director in both departments. My unique career path affords me the opportunity to meld my experiences within both the public and private sectors, allowing me to better navigate the consultant realm for the betterment of the community.
Since I have worked in a wide range of fields within both the public and private sectors, I enjoy speaking about all facets of the environmental, ecological, Public Works, and Utilities arenas.
