Heard in the Hall

Dianne Reed has found a new life after City Hall.

Mayor John Street's budget director, Reed starts Monday as executive director of CADE, an anti-violence nonprofit that does most of its work in the schools.

"The reason I'm interested in it is I think this is the right kind of thing for the corporate world to be supporting," Reed said, saying part of her job will be to further open up the wallets of the region's corporate leaders.

She also will busy herself expanding CADE's board, including the possible addition of Police Commissioner Charles Ramsey.

Speaking of new jobs, David Glancey has one, too.

Glancey, past chairman of the Board of Revision of Taxes, is taking on part-time employment at the University of Pennsylvania. His title will be director of special projects in the office of governmental affairs and community relations, where he will be a liaison with city regulatory agencies, and will also work on Penn's expansion plans.
"I think it's a good fit," he said.

But he has no interest in doing the job full-time. "I'm a retiree, what can I tell you?"
