Tuesday, January 8, 2019 by Tai Moses
Assistant City Manager Rodney Gonzales, who just started his new job this week, has appointed Deputy Director Denise Lucas as acting director of the Development Services Department, effective Jan. 6. Lucas, who began her employment with the city in 2010, has served as deputy director of Development Services since November 2017, managing building plan reviews and inspections. Prior to joining DSD, she was the deputy chief information officer for Communications and Technology Management and deputy purchasing officer for the Purchasing Office. Gonzales said in a statement that he was “confident in Ms. Lucas’ ability to continue advancing the department’s customer service and technology enhancements.” Lucas will serve in this capacity until a permanent director is found.
