Ordinance to end deadlocks on Atlanta boards
Alderman James H Nutting proposed a charter amendment to give Atlanta the authority to appoint a board or commission chairman within sixty days if elections fail. The police board deadlock between Robert Paes and William Fain prompted the measure. If the council fails to elect, a special meeting can be called to choose the chair. The proposal moves to charter amendment committee and then to the legislature.
