Fujioka Can't Stay Away

Former Los Angeles City Administrative Officer Bill Fujioka, who retired last year, apparently can't stay away from pressure.
Fujioka, 55, has been hired by the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors _ at $310,000 a year _ to take over for County Administrative Officer David Jannsen, who has been trying to retire for more than a year from his post.
Fujioka served as the City Administrative Officer for eight years and under three mayors, Richard Riordan, James Hahn and Antonio Villaraigosa.
In returning to the county _ he had once served as head of its Personnel Department _ Fujioka will be faced with a number of challenges from the King-UCLA Medical Center to overcrowded jails, but will have broadened powers approved by the Board of Supervisors to allow him to have greater say over how individual departments operate.
