Scott Randall resigns and keeps from being fired again

Former Hot Springs Village POA general manager Scott Randall is unemployed again. Members of the Los Alamos Commerce and Development Corporation board of directors accepted his resignation effective immediately, June 9th.

Randall resigned after he was charged with domestic battery and DUI.

Officer Adele Girmendonk of the Los Alamos Police Department responded to a verbal domestic altercation in the driveway of Randall's home on June 5th at 11:38 p.m. According to Girmendonk's police report, Mrs. Randall had some physical wounds and was asked if she wanted medical attention. She did not and a brochure on domestic abuse was given to her.

Officers conducted an intoxilyzer alcohol analyzer breath test on Scott Randall in the Los Alamos Detention Center and according to the report, he blew a 0.08 BRAC on both the first and second times.

The Los Alamos Commerce and Development Corporation board of directors wasted no time in setting up a meeting on June 9th to decide what to do about Randall. Randall saved the board from firing him by turning in his resignation. Randall worked for Los Alamos for about 14 months.

Members of the Los Alamos Commerce and Development Corporation Board of Directors are meeting today to decide the course of action they will take with regard to Executive Director Scott Randall.

Randall, who turned 59 years old Sunday, was arrested by Los Alamos police early Friday morning and charged with domestic battery and DUI. He has been executive director of the LACDC for about 14 months.

"We are holding a special board meeting at 4 p.m. today where we will make a decision on what is the best option," LACDC Board Chair Bill Wadt told the Los Alamos Daily Post. "Once we make a decision, we will first inform Scott, then the staff and then we will issue a press release."

Randall's arrest occurred after he attended a tourism event with his wife and another couple off the hill that ended at 7 p.m. Thursday. It's unclear where they went next but he and his wife returned home after 11 p.m. and police were called to the residence a short while later.

Randall was hired by the LACDC Board of Directors April 1, 2013. He succeeded longtime Executive Director Kevin Holsapple who retired in April 2013. Randall moved to Los Alamos with his wife from Hot Springs Village, Ark., where he served as general manager of a non-profit property owner's association.

He was fired from that job after 20 months and from another job as city manager in Superior, Colo.Randall held that job from February 2007 to September 2010. He sued the City of Superior and the contentious lawsuit was finally settled last February after a 3-and-a-half-year battle.

Randall's past jobs also include city manager of Auburn Hills, Mich., 2004-2006, Scott Randall & Associates 2003-2004, city manager of Clayton, Mo. 1997-2003, interim village administrator in Streamwood, Ill. 1992-1996 and village manager of LaGrange, Ill. 1988-1992.
