It's not as though the city's long-standing posture with regard to code violations in student apartments was directed from anywhere other than the very top.
Glascock has no experience with building code enforcement. He was trained as a lawyer, and before his ISD gig he worked on environmental compliance issues in the City's Environment Department (along with a brief stint as the director of that department.)
He's a good guy, but when I heard about his appointment as ISD director, I thought that he was in over his head.
I would argue that most of the people who have headed ISD have been in over their heads. In other words, ISD is so hard to control and manage. Might be a good time to dismantle the place.

Scapegoat?
