City Council
(Continued from Page 1)
"with the Chief of Police and had
recommended that no action be j
taken at the time, since the firm
had not yet qualified for its 1962
Master Operator’s license.
In response to a question by
Councilman Brewington, City Attor
ney Jackson stated that the area
Request is now taken up by two
parking meters. “I think the people
at Fairbanks would rather have
parking meters." said Brewington.
He went on to explain that he felt
too much parking area was taken
pp by loading and taxi zones. The
Council voted to table the request.
The City passed Resolution 234
which protests proposed regulations i
by the Treasury Dept, which would
deny the tax exemption of interest
on State and Municipal bonds pro
vided in the Constitution. Copies of
the resolution are to be sent to
members of the Alaska Congression
al Delegation, the President of the
United States and to members of
the House Ways and Means Com
mittee and the Senate Finance Com
mittee.
Mayor Ribar poked fun at the
complex document stating “I get
confused with all these whereases."
He then stated that he meant “no
slight to Mr. Jackson, who has to
write these things up."
Citizen Suits
City Attorney Barry Jackson
urged the Council to consider adopt -
in/ an ordinance which would se
lectively eliminate governmental
sovereignty and allow citizens to
file suits against the City, except
in cases of libel and slander. “I do
deeply believe it would be in the
best interest of the City,” he stated.
Jackson pointed out that there
was a growing trend towards such
measures. He pointed out the ad
vantages of the City taking such
selective action, rather than waiting
until the State or the State Supreme
Court makes a blanket elimination
of sovereignty. “If you don't estab
lish the ground rules, either the
State Supreme Court or the State
legislature will do it for you,” he
Mated.
Just after the mayor adjourned
the meeting. Councilman Brewing
ton requested that an executive ses
sion be called. He implied that he
wished to discuss conflict of inter
est charges which he had leveled
at a previous meeting. (See story
this issue.)
