Tue. 3:32 p.m.: Niles mayor fires ‘union guy’ safety service director

NILES — Niles Mayor Tom Scarnecchia fired Safety Service Director Jim DePasquale today.

Scarnecchia said DePasquale was too much of a “union guy” and not on the side of the city’s management.

He declined to give further details, but said the decision was in the best interest of the city and was made on the advice of legal counsel.

DePasquale did not immediately return a message seeking comment.

No replacement has been named.
