Members of the water commit
tee reported that Alaska Public
Works has requested a bond is
sue and payment of the City’s
share in the water system instal
lation. The City’s share was an
nounced to be $331,992.37. APW
officials stated that all bills have
been paid and that everything is
now ready for the City to sign
the contract. Councilmembers
took no action towards making
the payments until some settle
ment is reached pertaining to
over $6,000 recently spent by the
City to repair the eight-inch well
which was found to have been
installed not in accordance with
contract requirements. A letter,
pointing out the situation and
the fact that the contractor has
not yet paid the City for expen
ses incurred through his failure
to fulfill his contract, will be
sent to the APW officials.
City Attorney John Shaw told
council members that in his op
inion Alfred V. Hagen, city coun
cilman, was not eligible to run
for the office of Mayor without
first resigning his position on the
council.
In answer to this opinion City
Councilman Hagen stated that
he had inquired about it from
several Anchorage persons and
was assured that it was permis
sible for him to seek the mayor
alty in the coming election Octo
ber 4, and suggested the question
be put before Judge McCarrey.
Shaw pointed out that such a
question is not decided by the
Judge, rather that the legality of
the petition would have to be de
termined by the City Attorney.
Councilman Hagen pointed out
that the City ordinance pertain
ing to city elections states only
that a qualified candidate need
only be a qualified elector and
that he does qualify. Shaw re
minded Hagen that not all the
laws are in the books and then
referred to the promise made at
the time a petition is signed for
filing for office. The paragraph
referred to by the attorney ap
pears at the bottom of the pe
tition and states as follows: “I
hereby accept the nomination for
. and agree to
serve if elected." Following the
statement is the signature of can
didate. Attorney Shaw maintain
ed the it is not compatible for
Hagen to have signed such a pe
tition a year ago when he sought,
and got, his three-year term on
the Council, and to have signed
such a statement again this year
for the office of Mayor while
still holding the office of coun
cilman. "You couldn’t possibly
serve both offices”, he pointed
out.
One council member asked,
"What would happen if the City
Council refused to accept the
resignation of a Councilman who
had been elected Mayor?” The
answer was that the present
Mayor (and incumbent) Charles
Wilson would have to continue
in office. A similar ease was cit
ed in Cordova where the Mayor
elect disqualified himself by not
taking the oath of office. Dr. Will
Chase was then compelled to
continue on in the office of
Mayor, although he had not
sought re-election. It is mandi
tory for a man to serve in office
until his successor has been
named and has qualified to serve,
it was pointed out.
The legality of all petitions
for city offices is up to the city
attorney, according to
Shaw. Any petitions which
does not qualify is thrown out.
By a motion of the Council, At
torney Shaw was instructed to
inquire further into whether or
not a Council member may run
for the office of Mayor without
first resigning his Council seat
His findings are to be reported
back to the Council at the ear
liest possible time. Ballots for the
October 4 election can not be
printed until the decision is
made. Hagen abstained from vot
ing on the motion.
Other arguments presented
against a council member hold
ing office and running for anoth
er office included the possibility
of it happening every year,
