9/9/2015 ENG 2116 Description for Job Posting (GIS Planning Intern)
As an intern for the Charlotte Mecklenburg Planning Department I
would be one of fifty-seven individuals responsible for dealing with zoning administration, sustainable development, economic growth, overseeing appeals, managing the historic district and lastly, improving neighborhoods and business corridors for the betterment of our city. The planning department is part of the local government chain of command, and reports directly to both our local citizens and as well as our politicians. The qualifications for my role include both technical ability and the aptitude to apply that ability meaningfully. Specifically, the role demands familiarity with the ESRI software suite (ArcGIS, ArcMap and ArcGIS online,) Microsoft excel, expertise with cartographic design and an understanding of how the planning process works. The planning departments statement mission is: to provide integrated planning services that promote sustainable growth and improve our communitys quality of life. Although the department is small, the staff serves more than 800,000 residents of our city with this mission. Many of the staff members hold city-driving permits and often will have to go off-site to visit specific areas in order to survey them. Being comfortable with such a responsibility is a requirement for the role. Since they are an essential part of the city operations the planning department takes up an entire floor in the main government center building. This is designed specifically so they are able to
communicate with other branches of our government with ease. The
Mecklenburg City Government fosters this strategy in order to create an efficient work relationship.
