Mayor Lenny Curry is putting his stamp on how to run the day-to-day city operations.

Curry filed legislation last week seeking major reorganization of the executive branch that includes the recreation of a Neighborhoods Department and consolidation of other departments.

Some form of reorganization is typical with new administrations. Former Mayor Alvin Brown initiated two phases, some of what he organized is being undone — namely, the return of Neighborhoods and dissolving of an education officer and Office of Public-Private Partnerships.

Some (maybe all) of this is obviously Mousa's influence. The first part is pretty much the same structure under John Delaney. Not sure what to think about the Office of Economic Development falling under Mousa vs. Curry. Isn't that more focused on strategic (Mayor) versus tactical (Chief Admin Officer)
