City Recreation Dept Revived With $8000 Budget
City council revived the recreation department after abolition last week with a limited $8000 budget. The board and Mayor Maverick approved a four month reopening plan through May 31, with W. P. Witt as director and a budget of about $9182 previously discussed. Maverick will contribute $4000 and Mein $4000. Witt’s salary and other differences sparked compromise. The group aims to retain 35 WPA workers with minimum city supervision, and the budget includes funds to expand Negro playgrounds and facilities, funded partly by reallocations from Sewage fines and other accounts. Dr. L. J. Manhoff and John P. Dynsmore were named to approve the budget, while committees oversee the revival.
