Top Adams official heading for the door
By Joe Anuta and Sally Goldenberg -
NEW YORK — Roberto Perez, head of the city’s intergovernmental affairs office, is leaving for a job in the private sector — the first high-profile departure of Mayor Eric Adams' young administration.
Perez handled the mayor's relationships with city and state officials as the administration navigated budget negotiations with the City Council and a rocky Legislative session in Albany. He was one of the few holdovers from former Mayor Bill de Blasio's administration, where he ran the Community Affairs Unit.
“Roberto is a distinguished public servant with a long career in government, and we asked him to stay on to help this administration hit the ground running, build the best intergovernmental affairs team in the business, and work with us through the first budget,” Frank Carone, the mayor’s chief of staff, said in a statement. “We’re grateful he agreed to extend his stay, particularly given how difficult his role was during the covid crisis.”
