A top Los Angeles manager for Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa has resigned her position, following a report that her husband owed more than $50,000 to the city's Department of Water and Power--while the department was pushing a 10 percent rate increase. CBS Los Angeles reports:
CBS2 investigative reporter David Goldstein found the DWP had more than $2.4 million in uncollected funds. Despite already owed that money, the agency also wants a 10 percent hike in power and a 5 percent hike in water rates.
Randi Levin made more than $200,000 a year reporting directly to the mayor as general manager of the city’sinformation technology department.
Levin’s husband, Maurice, owed DWP more than $56,000 in unpaid rent for land he leased for a garden in North Hollywood.
