BPS Independent Citizens Oversight Committee

2700 Judge Fran Jamieson Way

Viera, FL 32940

Dear Selection Committee,

Please accept my recommendation and endorsement of Mr. Kyle Brown for a position on the Independent

Citizens Oversight Committee (ICOC). He has extensive engineering, project management, and public service

experience that I know would serve the Committee and the Brevard School Board well.

In my former position with DRMP, I recruited, interviewed, and worked with Kyle across all facets of the

engineering business. He successfully started an office in Brevard County, establishing the necessary federal

and municipal client base, and currently oversees over $2.5 million in design efforts. He is on track to triple the

size of this office in less than two years.

Aside from his technical and business expertise, Kyle has the political acumen to effectively navigate the

complex and often emotional management of public funds. During his 20 years of military service in the public

works field, he successfully steered projects and teams through complex political processes from Washington

D.C. to local municipalities.

Having served on many public boards, committees, and now as an Orange County Commissioner, I understand

the deep and diverse talent necessary for a committee as important as the ICOC as well as the overarching

mandate to maintain the trust of citizens. Kyle will bring the character, judgement, and technical skills that do

just that and will enable the committee’s continued success. In short, I am proud to recommend him to you, he

would be a solid asset to your team.

Sincerely,

Betsy VanderLey

Orange County Commissioner, District 1
