Leaflet touts city manager-commission as better form of government
A Lawrence committee distributes leaflets before next Tuesday comparing city manager-commission and mayor-council systems. They claim voters can appoint five governing officials, elect a majority each election, and obtain full-time administrators, with strict qualifications for commissioners. Neighboring cities like Emporia, Pittsburg, and Hays are cited as proof of improved governance.
