Re: Extending Term of Department Supervisor Councilman Sullivan introduced the matter of the near expiration of ordinance No. 1208 which provided for a trial period of six months of the office known as the Department of Public Services and Public Property. Councilman Sullivan expressed his dissatisfaction With the operation of the various departments concerned under this system and stated that he felt that the previous status should be resumed. Councilman Carroll spoke in favor of continuation of the new systen inasmuch as a great deal more work had been accomplished in a very satisfactory manner. Councilman uleason stated that it appeared that much of the dimatisfaction referred to$10ouncilman Sullivan had been with reference to the operation of the Street Department,and it was his opinion that anyone presenting a complaint about work of the Street Department should be advised to present the matter to the members of the Committee of Streets and Sewers for their consideration. Councilman Benedetto gave it as his opinion that Lir. Lockhart who had filled the newly created postion during the past six months had accomplished a great deal of good work but that the responsibilities and efforts required of such an office were too much to be ex- pected of any one individual and the City should therefore revert to the former system. Councilman Osborne stated that he felt that it would be best for the operation of the City departments to be placed back upon the prior basis. Yayor Anderson stated,with regard to subject under discussion,that the system now in effect had made possible a saving of considerable money in the operation of departments covered by the ordinance and cited certain specific examples of such savings. No direct or specific action •rras taken by the Council upon the matter at this time. AJOURIIXENT As it appeared that there was no further business to present to the Council for their consideration at this timerit was moved by Councilman Carroll and seconded by Councilman Gleason that the Council do now ajourn.
