Watervliet Notes 25th Anniversary of Commission Form
Watervliet marks 25 years since adopting the commission form in 1919 and 1920 amid political contests. The mayor and council evolved from ward elections to city at large, reducing ward bias and cutting costs. Longtime leaders include James A. and Michael L. Walsh with current general manager Frank T. Mahar since 1952. The piece notes broader adoption of the system, local salaries, and the shift toward centralized city government. A funeral notice for Mrs. Henry Groner and Congregational Open House details are also included.
