A Pittsburgh Public Works Department manager whose job includes ferreting out drunken driving convictions against other employees pleaded guilty this week to a DUI charge stemming from a ride home from a city-sponsored wellness event.
Public Works Director Guy Costa said he is awaiting a Law Department review before determining what, if any, discipline is warranted against Operations Coordinator John Barley, 57, a 24-year city employee.
Mr. Costa said Mr. Barley's role in checking for other employees' DUIs will be one subject of a meeting tomorrow between him, city Operations Director Art Victor, and a city lawyer.
"That's all going to be discussed, what his role is going to be and what disciplinary actions will be taken," Mr. Costa said.
Mr. Barley said he regretted the incident, and added that there was "no policy violated" by his handling of the charge and plea.
