A former high-ranking Ramsey County official has been hired by a federal agency for a leadership position one year after he resigned under fire amid accusations that he sexually harassed and created an intolerable workplace environment for a female employee.
Paul Allwood joined the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) on March 1 as the head of the agency s lead poisoning prevention branch and will have about 16 staff members reporting to him.
The county confronted Allwood on March 2, 2020, with a 66-page report from an outside investigation that substantiated an allegation that he bullied and berated a female worker.
