In a major City Hall shake-up, Mayor James Hahn on Thursday nominated one of the most powerful city figures -- Chief Legislative Analyst Ron Deaton -- to take over as head of the Department of Water and Power.
Hahn told the City Council he is nominating Deaton to take over for David Wiggs, who advised the mayor he is resigning from his $311,362-a-year job as the DWP's general manager as he recuperates from cancer. Deaton, who earns $286,724 a year now, has for nearly two decades wielded enormous power over city affairs as the City Council's adviser.
