Amarillo adopts state civil service for police and fire
Voters approve the state civil service plan by 810 to 211. The new act ends the old city system and triggers resignations by Civil Service Board chair Charlie Lambie Dr Roy Boger and E J Bruderlin who say they will not function under the change. The city commission must appoint a new three member civil service panel with staggered terms by February 16 next year. Official canvass set for next Tuesday.
