LOS ANGELES—Ted Allen, who has worked in the city’s engineering department for nearly three decades, was appointed Los Angeles’ new city engineer and executive director of the Bureau of Engineering July 20 by Mayor Eric Garcetti.
If confirmed by the city council, Allen will replace Gary Lee Moore, the second-longest serving city engineer in Los Angeles history. Moore is retiring after 37 years working for the city, 19 of them as city engineers.
