Lorain Safety Service Director Dan Given is expected to step down in February as part of what Mayor Tony Krasienko called a “restructuring” of his staff.

Krasienko said today Given will not be part of that restructuring but is holding off discussing the reason why until he can inform members of Council at a special meeting he called for 5 p.m. today.

 

Krasienko said he decided to call a special meeting because he did not want to discuss the matter with Council members over the phone.

 

A long-time city councilman, Given had won reelection in November to an at-large seat, but resigned that post when he accepted the safety service director job earlier this month. No replacement for his Council seat has been named, but city Democrats plan to meet later this month to decide on Given’s Council successor.
