LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (AP) — Little Rock’s assistant city manager will serve as acting city manager following the death over the weekend of Bruce Moore, who was the city’s top administrator for more than two decades.
Mayor Frank Scott announced Tuesday night that Emily Cox will move into the role until further notice, the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette reported Wednesday. Scott made the announcement after the city board met in executive session.
Moore, who was 57, was Little Rock’s longest-serving city manager. He was named assistant city manager in 1999 and became city manager in 2002, serving in that role under three mayors.
A memorial service has been scheduled for Saturday morning in Little Rock.
