"Mayor John Norquist will leave office at the end of the year to take a job in Chicago leading an urban development organization, ending a term that was clouded by an extramarital affair and harassment settlement with a former staffer... Norquist has long been associated with the New Urbanism movement and with the organization he will now head. He has served as a board member of the congress, which works with developers and city planners on creating compact, walkable neighborhoods and attractive public spaces."
