"Bell's top administrators, whose hefty salaries have stirred public outrage and calls for investigations, agreed to resign Thursday night during a closed-door City Hall meeting.
City Manager Robert Rizzo, Police Chief Randy Adams and Assistant City Manager Angela Spaccia will not receive severance packages. Rizzo will step down at the end of August and Spaccia will leave at the end of September. Adams will also leave at the end of August, after completing an evaluation of the Police Department.

| City Management through out California have done this for years! Now the public is mad at them, but going after the lowely blue collar worker, who upon retirement, makes about 36K a year. This is per CALPERS's numbers. It's about time that we go after the top people, and not settle with making the little people pay. |
