Mayor Bob O’Connor’s office today announced the firing of three top administrators.

Chief among them was chief of staff B.J. Leber, who will be replaced on an interim basis by Dennis Regan, the mayor’s director of intergovernmental affairs.

Also fired was city Solicitor Susan Malie, who will be replaced by law department veteran George Specter, and Finance Director Paul Leger, who will be replaced for now by Budget Director Scott Kunka.

The mayor “has been saddened and disappointed by the actions of some of his staff members in his absence. He had no choice but to terminate them,” said the mayor’s spokesman, Dick Skrinjar.

Mr. O’Connor informed the three of their terminations in a conference call at 9:15 this morning. He called from UPMC Shadyside Hospital, where he is being treated for brain cancer.

They were told to gather their personal belongings and police then escorted them from the City-County Building.

Wonder what these people did wrong? i think its funny he calls from a hospital and cans these people.

:rofl: that and how the hell can he do his job from the hospital?

:rofl:

He probably has a lot more cleaning house to do!

Seem’s that even from his hospital bed he’s still “Reddin’ Up”.

Word is that he got wind that these vultures and a few others like them were basically trying to decide who would be in charge of the city now that O’Connor is sick…I guess they found out!
