Deputy Chief Administrative Officer Cedric S. Grant
Scope and Contents
The records reflect Grant's tenure as Deputy Chief Administrative Officer. As primary assistant to the CAO, Grant was responsible for capital development, emergency preparedness and public works. The records are primarily subject/correspondence files. While most of the folders are labeled "correspondence," also included are reports, memos, financial or legal documents, minutes of committees, boards or task forces on which Grant sat (these are fragmentary), etc. Correspondence or memos to CAO Gusman or others, cc'd to Grant, were retained if they pertained to a committee of which he was a member or if they involved a project on which Grant may have been working. Thus, there may be some overlap between these files and those of CAO Marlin Gusman.
Files or documents related to personnel matters, as well as routine office-related matters, were discarded.
