PROVIDENCE -- Mayor David N. Cicilline will appoint a new city Emergency Management Agency director, who also will head up the local Office of Homeland Security, on Monday. Cicilline will make the announcement at a 10 a.m. news conference in the mayor's office that day, his office announced today. Providence Police Maj. Monty Monteiro is the city's acting EMA director. He was assigned to the slot after the previous director, Leo Messier, was fired in the wake of a Dec. 13 snowstorm that paralyzed much of the metropolitan region and left some city students stranded on school buses for hours.

Who would want a job were you get little support and are the fall guy for the lack of co-ordination between city departments, especially the ellusive school dept. who appears accountable to nobody. Good luck to the political crony that gets it!
