Demboski’s 24-page lawsuit includes new allegations, including that the mayor gave his “tacit approval” for his then-chief of staff to have an “improper relationship with a subordinate.”
Former Anchorage municipal manager Amy Demboski is suing Mayor Dave Bronson for gender discrimination, defamation and for firing her in retaliation when, she says, she raised concerns over his administration’s actions.Demboski had threatened to sue the city shortly after the mayor fired her last December. Into the Assembly and other city leaders, she alleged numerous illegal and unethical actions by Bronson and his staff, including illegal contracting and creating a hostile work environment.
“Their wanton disregard and disdain for following the law and propriety presented daily problems,” says Demboski’s lawsuit.“The Mayor is aware Ms. Demboski has filed a civil suit,” said the statement sent by Bronson spokeswoman Veronica Hoxie. “He will continue to work hard on behalf of the people of Anchorage and looks forward to this matter being resolved.”
