The mayor’s office on Tuesday confirmed with Daily Report the identities of the four staffers laid off:

Charlie Davis, chief efficiency officer
Bill Sherman, communications director
Falon Brown, press secretary
Cydni Rabi, operations director of the city-parish’s satellite office in north Baton Rouge

If one of the first layoffs is the guy holding this job, they must not have been very fricking good at it.

You can go ahead and layoff the operations director at the St. George office too

wonder if she'll go back to Channel 2? They desperately need some talent.

half of those positions aren't even filled right now, so they are only laying off around 200 people, but saying 400 jobs are being eliminated sounds better than 200.

Starting with his own office was smart. He is still gonna get blamed for all the things he didn’t have anything to do with dealing with the budget

Those four represent a reduction in the Mayor's staff of about 12 percent. More layoffs will be coming.

I admire Coach Edwards that he started by laying off his own office's staff members first before requiring other departments to reduce their staff.

I was wondering if Fallon would get caught up in this but I assumed that no way she gets cut.

I am kind of shocked. She'll find something I'm sure.

Maybe she can team up with Casey Hicks

Sid has 8 people in his office making 6 figures. He can cut more.

Why was the chief efficiency officer making that much $ - approx $130K, that seems inefficient
Slaughter took over those job duties
Falon Brown is probably mad, she's only been there for about a year

St George is not the reason Thrive didn't pass
they actually supported the plan
