Library Board Rules Change Faces Dissent At Baytown Council
Baytown council and the library board approved six proposed ordinance changes defining board authority. The most notable shift weakens the need for board approval of library plans before council review. Three of four board members backed the change despite opposition from Mrs. Mattie Howard. The ordinance, presented by Robert Strickland, sets new mediation roles for City Manager J. B. Le Fevre and appoints two council mediators to resolve disputes.
