According to just-released press release from New Orleans Mayor Nagin's office, "Effective August 1, 2008, Anthony Jones, Interim Technology Director will return to his previous civil service position as Management Information Systems (MIS) Director. The City will name a permanent director for the technology division within 90 - 180 days according to Chief Administrative Officer, Dr. Brenda Hatfield.
According to Civil Service policy, a classified employee may request leave from a position and then return to it, particularly in the case of interim director positions. Jones will return to his classified MIS position, where he will be assigned to Capital Projects. He will receive the standard civil service approved salary.
On August 4, M. Harrison Boyd will step in as Interim Director while the City continues its search. Boyd has extensive management and consulting experience in the fields of information technology, e-commerce, and economic and community development. He has also performed program management and overseen technology migration initiatives within government agencies."
Bayoubuzz reported last week that Anthony Jones would be leaving the Technology Director position. Jones had been under fire for questions concerning his resume. The press release does not state who initiated Jones's return to a prior civil service position, the reasons for the change and Mayor Nagin's official position regarding the change..

Time for a full disclosure and explanation, Ray, dear. Falsification of application for position should also be a reason for termination under civil service regulations. Are we correct on that issue, Ray, dear. Written by RhettsWife
