Un nouveau visage fera son apparition au comité de direction de la Ville de Trois-Rivières. L’embauche de monsieur Patrick Gariépy pour agir comme directeur des Travaux publics a été confirmée lors de séance municipale du 15 octobre dernier. Cette nomination fait suite au départ à la retraite de l’ancien titulaire. Monsieur Gariépy travaille dans le monde municipal depuis plus de 30 ans, dont les 8 dernières comme directeur. À ses débuts, il a pratiqué plusieurs métiers manuels comme journalier, opérateur et chauffeur, avant de devenir contremaître puis directeur aux travaux publics.

En parallèle, Patrick Gariépy est investi au sein de l’Association des travaux publics du Québec, où il a siégé comme président pendant 5 ans. Depuis 2022, il poursuit son implication dans l’organisme comme administrateur, en même temps de suivre un D.E.S.S. en administration publique à l’École nationale d’administration publique (ENAP). Cette feuille de route impressionnante en a fait un candidat de choix pour agir comme directeur des Travaux publics à Trois-Rivières, avec sa population de 145 000 personnes, ses 950 km de rues et ses 500 km de trottoirs. Actuellement à la Ville de Boisbriand, Patrick Gariépy se dit prêt à mettre ses compétences au profit d’une grande ville comme Trois-Rivières. L’entretien des rues et des parcs, le déneigement et la signalisation figureront d’ailleurs parmi ses responsabilités.

La rémunération de la nouvelle recrue sera fixée en vertu de la structure de rémunération prévue au Protocole des conditions de travail des cadres supérieurs. Monsieur Gariépy entrera officiellement en poste le 18 novembre 2024. Entretemps, René Tessier, chef de service - Voie publique, continue d’assurer l’intérim de la direction. La Ville de Trois-Rivières tient d’ailleurs à remercier monsieur Tessier et son équipe qui ont relevé leurs manches et mis les bouchées doubles depuis 3 mois afin de poursuivre le service citoyen sans en diminuer la qualité. Leur engagement envers l’organisation et la population mérite d’être souligné.
