Planning commission meets with lawyer

WARREN

The Trumbull County Planning Commission met in private for more than three hours Tuesday with an attorney who investigated allegations made by its executive director but did not take any action after the meeting.

The commission’s board of directors met with Atty. Kimberly Riley of Cleveland, who the planning commission hired to investigate allegations by Trish Nuskievicz in July. Trumbull County Engineer Randy Smith and “his associates” had subjected her to psychological abuse, bullyng, retaliation, discrimination and harassment, alleged Nuskievicz, who went on sick leave in July and has remained off almost continuously since then. She said the harassment caused her to seek treatment for health conditions “caused from working in a very hostile work environment.”
