Cole Hendrix served as Charlottesville's City Manager from 1971 to 1996[1]. Hendrix also served as the interim director of the Rivanna Water and Sewer Authority and the Rivanna Solid Waste Authority from March 2001 to October 2001[citation needed].

Role in Downtown Pedestrian Mall construction

The "perennially calm, pipe-smoking Charlottesville city manager[2]" heavily pushed the development of a downtown pedestrian mall on Main Street. The Daily Progress reported that while there was significant opposition to the mall project, Hendrix said "I think that based on what I see now, that in 10 years the people will look back and see the Mall as one of the best accomplishments of the city since the end of World War II." He believed the mall was a key to stopping the city's economic decline[2].
