individual council members in
the past,” he said.
It was pointed out that the
city manager would fill a
multiple position. "He may
have engineering, surveying,
1 or other similar background.
He might take over the duties
of the city clerk. In any
event, he would have addi
tional duties above his super
visory capacity."
The city’s budget is nearing
a quarter of a million dollars
a year. “Any time we have a
business of that size going, a
manager is needed to see that
maximum performance is being
received for the tax dollar
spent. It is time to make our
town more efficient—one to be
proud of—paying salaries with
out proper management creates
a government the city can not
afford,” Duff stated.
City officials and Charter
Commission members stress
ed they hope city voters will
turn out 100 percent to voice
their opinion of the Charter
at the June 5 election. City
Clerk Cmilie St. Pierre point
ed out that at one time it
had been considered to place
the proposal on the ballot in
October. "However," she said,
"it was felt that by placing it
before the people now, con
siderable work could be
done by the present Council
and that many phases of the
Charter could be instituted
before the new Council
would take over."
Chairman Moore expressed
his appreciation to members of
the Commission for their work
on the long project, and especi
ally to Mrs. Haleen Ingalls,
who because of ill health, had
to withdraw from active partic
ipation in the final phases of
the Charter preparation.
Members of the Palmer
League of Women Voters last
week made public announce
ment of their approval of the
Charter. The women had
made project studies of the
Charter prior to announcing
their decision.
Members of the Charter
Commission stated Wednesday
night that they will be happy
to appear at group meetings
and explain, or discuss, the
proposed Charter.
