Chris Cotterill, a former chief of staff to Indianapolis Mayor Greg Ballard, has joined the Indiana Economic Development Corp. as general counsel, the IEDC announced Monday.

Cotterill replaces Steve Akard, who was promoted in November to serve as the IEDC’s chief of staff.

Cotterill was chief of staff from 2010 to 2012 and led the city's $1.9 billion transfer of its water and wastewater utilities.

He previously served as corporation counsel for the city and as general counsel for the state’s office of technology.

After working for the city, Cotterill joined law firm Faegre Baker Daniels LLP as a partner in the public finance group where he focused on public-private partnerships, utility transactions and state and local government reform.

Cotterill is also a regular columnist for IBJ's Forefront section.
