TAMPA — Effective Jan. 1, Lynda Remund will be the new president and CEO of the Tampa Downtown Partnership, succeeding Christine Burdick, who stepped down in December 2017.

Remund, according to a press release, had been serving as acting president and CEO of the nonprofit business advocacy group since January. She has been with the organization for nearly two decades, first joining in 2000 as director of district operations.

“Lynda’s ability to support and lead a collaborative work environment while effectively managing the partnership’s strategic initiatives has proven to the board officers and the executive committee that [she] is the best person for this position,” states Mickey Jacob, Tampa Downtown Partnership chairman, in the release. “Over the past 18 years, Lynda has been steadfast in adhering to the organization’s vision and mission of cultivating a diverse and vibrant Downtown through the initiatives she’d lead and the relationships she’d built to support those efforts.”

Remund, the release states, will manage the partnership’s organizational structure, vision and mission; facilitate the corporation’s strategic initiatives; and work with downtown stakeholders to ensure Tampa’s urban core is a vibrant and diverse neighborhood.

“I’m very excited about the momentum we’ve had and the direction the partnership is heading,” Remund states in the release. “I’m honored to serve as the president and CEO for the Tampa Downtown Partnership and am energized to work with our staff, board and executive committee on executing our vision and mission as laid out in our strategic initiatives.”
