Another DWP Executive Plans to Leave Agency
From Times Staff and Wire Reports
A third top manager of the Department of Water and Power is leaving the agency in as many months, officials said Monday.
Gerald A. Gewe is retiring Feb. 1 as assistant general manager and chief operating officer of the water system, ending a 37-year career with the city.
Gewe came under fire earlier this year for the handling of a proposed 18% water rate increase, which was cut back to 11% by the City Council after it drew strong public opposition.
