MAYOR DUTIES DIFFERENT

Under the new proposed charter as
drawn up by the charter revision COM
mission the duties of the mayor of the
city will be somewhat different than the
present duties of the city's chief execu-
tive. He will have principally the pow
er of appointments and of course will be
the chief executive of the city. At the
board of aldermen, which will replace
the court of common council elects its
own president and vice president the
power of veto is invested in the mayor
But the board of aldermen may pass a
measure over the mayors veto by a two
thirds vote.
The mayor will also have the power
to appoint four members of the new
board of finance but his appointments
will be subject to approval by the al
dermanic Soard. The five members of
the board of public safety, which will
include the fire department and police
department, and the board of public
works will be appointed by the mayor
the appointments not being subject to
the approval of the board of aldermen
However the actions of these two boards
cannot be carried out without the ap-
prevail of the board of aldermen The
mayor will also have the right to remove
any appointee made by him at any time
| for just and good reason. This is a
| safeguard against mistakes that might bt
made.
i The mayor also can call meetings Of
| the various boards at any time and is
| also required 70 make a quarterly re
port to the board of aldermen regard
| ing the city's condition.
