A former appointee under D.C. Mayor Anthony Williams will return to serve the Adrian Fenty administration as the deputy mayor for planning and economic development, Fenty announced Monday, though the nominee acknowledged having limited experience working with developers.
Neil Albert, 46, Williams’ former deputy mayor for children, youth, families and elders, will lead the Fenty administration’s efforts to spread the development boom from bustling downtown to long-ignored communities from Georgia Avenue Northwest to Good Hope Road Southeast.
