Firing of Leece prompts awaiting county response
County Administrative Officer Raymond D. Johnson said he awaits a reply from Emergency Services Officer Albert J. Leece after delivering notice of proposed discharge. Leece, 59, a retired Air Force officer, calls the accusation unfounded and notes his probation runs into January. The action stems from concerns over flood planning after last summer’s Sycamore Canyon fire and the denuded Santa Barbara Montectio area.
