The Pennsylvania Civil Service Commission hearing for the former director of Butler County’s housing and redevelopment authority will continue for at least one more day.
Perry O’Malley to continued to challenge his dismissal from the post on Thursday. According to authority Solicitor Andrew Menchyk, Attorney Neva Stotler gave testimony on behalf of the housing authority board but did not finish answering all questions. The hearing will resume with her continued testimony October 8 in Pittsburgh.
O’Malley, of Cranberry Township, was fired back in March after the authority’s board members said he abused travel, expenses and leave time and neglected duties. O’Malley has continued to deny the board’s claims. He alleges he was fired because of his age and politics.
O’Malley had been the executive director for 23 years.
Last month, the board hired Ed Mauk of the Pittsburgh Housing Authority as the new executive director.
