Porn Scandal Rocks Planning Department

| Life at the planning department may be a bit wilder than we'd imagined, according to a whistleblower complaint |
The San Francisco Chronicle reports that Zoning Administrator Larry Badiner and three other veteran planners stand to be sacked for sending and/or receiving raunchy e-mails to dozens of department employees -- for years. A female worker in December objected, filing a whistleblower complaint. That led to planning director John Rahaim launching an investigation and, purportedly, formally reccomending Badiner and the three others -- so far -- be dismissed.
Badiner was serving as Rahaim's acting replacement just last month after the sudden death of Rahaim's partner, Lance Farber. He has worked for the planning department for more than a decade.
Finally, out of contractual obligation, here are some kinky planning terms: zoning adjustment, recreation and open space, conditional use, discretionary review, and, of course, the Interdepartmental Project Application Intake Meeting.
