City Official Accepts Early Retirement Plan
Inglewood Assistant City Administrator Norman Cravens has accepted an early retirement package and plans to leave his job at the end of this month after working for the city for 16 years.
Cravens, 56, spent his last full day at work on Friday. He will be on a reduced work schedule for the rest of the month so he can start his new job on Monday with Hollywood Park’s marketing department. Hollywood Park operates a racetrack and casino in Inglewood.
The city will save $202,000 a year with Cravens’ departure. Inglewood is also talking with City Atty. Howard Rosten, 54, about retiring early.
In April, City Manager Paul Eckles, whose annual salary was $207,000 a year, also retired early. The departures have been made since Roosevelt Dorn became mayor this spring.
Jacqueline Corby has been named the acting city administrator.
