Prior to founding Serrafix, Mr. Foy served as the first secretary of the Massachusetts Office for Commonwealth Development. Governor Mitt Romney created this “super secretariat,” and recruited Mr. Foy to be its first leader, to coordinate housing, transportation, energy and the environment, and to encourage more sustainable development in Massachusetts. Under Foy, the Office for Commonwealth Development received the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s Award for Overall Excellence in Smart Growth. At Commonwealth Development, Foy oversaw the Executive Office of Transportation, the Executive Office of Environmental Affairs, the Department of Housing and Community Development and the Department of Energy Resources. Those four agencies are responsible for all infrastructure (other than schools) in the Commonwealth, including roads, bridges, transit, parks, sewers, water systems, energy, and housing. The agencies also regulate environmental protection and housing development, and guide the growth agenda for Massachusetts. Collectively, the Commonwealth Development agencies employ some 11,000 people.
