Records of furloughed city employees - Some got their job back and others did not

 


The city of Little Rock has still has all of it's buildings on lockdown due to the Rona pandemic and many employees have been effectively terminated.

We posed these questions to the city:

How many City of Little Rock employees were furloughed, by department, between 3/1/2020 and 10/8/2020.

How many of those employees were brought back to work within the same time period.

What follows is their response.

City Attorney:

City Manager and City Clerk:

Note that the email indicated that Jericho Way sent van drivers home. Wahy to take care of our homeless citizens.

Community Programs:

Criminal Court:

Environmental Court:

Finance:


 Fleet Services:


Housing and Neighborhood Programs:


Information Technology:


Fire Department:


Mayor's Office:


Bridgette is not the sharpest tool in the shed. Perhaps the feckless mayor should have furloughed her.

Parks and Recreation:


Planning and Development:


Public Works:


Traffic Court:


Zoo:


The Zoo showed why it is always in turmoil. They couldn't even prepare a proper list. Might be time to look closely at it's operations.
