OF D. {. Backed
ByGen. Young
Commissioner Asks
Changes, However,
In Fowler Plan

Engineer Commissioner Gordon
r. Young has Endorsed the prin-
lciple of consolidating depart
|ments in the District Government
reorganization proposal of Budget
Officer Walter L. Fowler.
In memorandum to the Board
of Commissioners yesterday, how
ever, Gen. Young recommended
several changes in Mr.. Fowler's
proposal One would place high
way activities in separate de-
partment.
Mr.. Fowler's plan calls for con-
solidation of the Government units
into 13 departments. He would
include highways in a public
works department.
AS for the executive officer pro-
posed by Mr.. Fowler to relieve
the Commissioners of daily ad-
ministrative detail. Gen. Young
said he was ION the fence" al
Though somewhat inclined toward
lit.
Gen. Young withheld comment
on Mr.. Fowler's suggestion for a
Citizens Advisory Council, stating
he wished to discuss it with his
colleagues.
Would Shift Zoning Units.
In addition to recommending
that highways be placed in a de-
partment of their own, Gen.
Young suggested that the Public
Utilities Commission, the Zoning
Commission. the Zoning Advisory
Council and the Zoning Adjust
ment Board be removed from the
proposed public works department.
The engineer commissioner also
said he thought the Redevelop-
ment Land Agency should not be
under the public works depart
ment, but should remain an in
dependent agency or be separate
department.
Gen. Young said the municipal
architect should be added, the
present Department of Sanitary
Engineering abolished as such and
the subordinate agencies entitled
divisions.
Under home rule, with an
elected council, an executive of
f1cer such as Mr.. Fowler suggests
would be a necessity, Gen. Young
stated, but he questioned whether
such an executive would be desir-
able while we retain the COM
mission form of government"
May Be Desirable.
Il am inclined to think that he
is desirable. but this is less certain
when we have only three Com
missioners than if we had a large
council of dozen or so (Which
could not possibly divide up among
Its members the routine admins
tration OF the departments as the
Commissioners now do)," he said.
Gen. Young said also that no
man could effectively give orders
to 13 subordinates, as would be
called for under MIR. Fowler's plan.
He suggested that at least three
assistant executive officers would
be needed, among whom the de-
partments could be divided up.
He proposed these divisions:
| l. Departments of an admins
trative and paper work" charac-
ter-law. finance, personnel and
commerce and labor.
2. Departments dealing with
public safety and engineering ac-
tivities-civil defense, corrections,
police, fire, public works and high
ways.
! 8. Other departments dealing
directly with large segments of the
public-health, parks and recrea-
ton. public welfare and library.
If made a separate department,
the land agency should be includ-
ed in this group or the second.
