New deputy named for DNR
State Economic Development Director Linda Martinez has resigned after less than a year on the job.
Gov. Jay Nixon made the announcement Monday afternoon, saying in a statement that he wished Martinez well in her return to private legal practice but didn't elaborate on where she's headed. His office would not release her resignation letter, with spokesman Scott Holste calling it a personnel matter. That's not the only change in personnel in the Nixon administration.
Nixon tapped attorney Bill Bryan on Monday to be deputy director of the Department of Natural Resources and also lead the Division of State Parks.
