Saline Presses Home Rule Study On County Manager Plan
Washtenaw County Board of Supervisors moved toward a Home Rule program with a draft legislation allowing tax levies up to 10 mills and a 10 percent debt limit for counties. A charter commission would be elected to shape county government, possibly creating an executive or district based legislature. Several Washtenaw members voiced support in principle, while Augusta township's Harold Williams opposed it, arguing the proposal was unclear and undemocratic.

Council considering City Manager form of government
Mayor Bennett urged adopting a City Manager or Administrator system to speed decisions and handle daily operations. Most councilors supported the idea with reservations, while Strohl remained undecided. Bennett pressed for a larger city hall, fire house, expanded parks, better employee benefits, and a retirement plan. He cautioned against budget cuts that hinder essential projects and called for a budgeting process tied to millage. The council would focus on policy while a manager runs everyday tasks.
