IMPROVE MENTS
At THE CITY
HALL
Hereafter Seats VIII Be Provided
for City Officials in the
Council Chamber.

A change, which has long been
needed is now being made at the city
hall This change is relative to the
council chamber, where seats are now
provided for only the mayor, council
men and reporters. the other officials
being compelled to remain on the
outside of the railing.
The mayor. after consulting the
charter. found that it required seats
to be provided for the chairman
Of the vaious boards, fof members, and
also the city attorney marshal and
other officials.
AS a consequence the railing which
encloses the council chamber is be-
ing extended toward the stairway,
and the adlidonaI space viii be oc-
cupied by those officials when meet
ings Of the council are being held.
When the present quarters were
provided it was with the intention to
provide only space enough for the
desks Of the twelve councilmen, the
mayors chair and a desk for report
ers. This was done and since that
time the other officials have been
compelled to take seats outside the
enclosed space.
The present improvement it is exc
pected. VIII be completed before the
next council meeting and win be
greatly appreciated by those officials
who are required TO attend council
