Division of Business Manager Duties Suggested to Council
A plan to split the city business manager role proposes creating a superintendent of the electric and gas department and appointing the city engineer to report directly to the council. Don Bones said the change would cut the manager’s load and speed work, and he proposed Charles Keene for the new utility superintendent after Keene’s resignation. The mayor and council debated decentralizing oversight, with Henry Mercer warning it could defeat the position’s purpose. Other items included a $15 playground nursery license, denial of a $3,000 claim from the San Francisco Welfare Corp. for St. Mary’s auditorium damage, and notices about West Gobbs Street property deeds and Hollow Tree Lumber’s airport hanger work.
