As the Director for the , Chris’s main research focus examined infrastructure and urban sustainability and identifies barriers and opportunities in the field. His background in public management, federal and municipal government enabled him to bring a governance lens to analyse urban sprawl and key decisions about transportation and infrastructure, land-use planning, housing and energy. His findings illustrate that governance and systems of governance are crucial in understanding infrastructure policies and choices and, ultimately, the kinds of cities they produce.
Local decision-making and municipal government is intended to be the most inclusive, representative and transparent of all levels of government. As cities continue to increase in size and importance, they face challenges to maintain these qualities and adapt their governance structure to adapt to growing responsibilities, demands and technologies. For economic, social, political and democratic reasons understanding the role and potential of cities has become crucial not only for municipal government but also for regional and national governments that must find ways to play an enabling role in developing urban centres and enhancing the quality of life for urban, sub-urban and rural based citizens. His research also focused on federal government including key aspects of “good governance” in areas such as transparency, accountability and procurement, as well the changing relationship between public servants and elected officials.  Strategic management in a public sector context provides another focus for his research and, in particular, the complexity of planning for emergency and crisis situation following natural and man-made disasters.
