Applications Read Applications for the appointive positions to be filled by the City Council, were read by City Clerk Shepard and a motion to postpone appointments until next week to give Councilmen an opportunity to look over the long list of applicants and decide on those best qualified, was carried unanimously. The City Manager plan, which provides for the Mayor to also act as Street Commissioner, with a salary of $3,000 a year, will be in effect for another year, it was unanimously decided by the new council. Under city ordinance No. 200 and it ad-| this must be passed on each year| by the City Council, although the reclection by & 1 Judson, who has held the posi- tion for the last two years, is con- a sidered an indorsement of the plnn, by the voting public. No Watchman It was also unanimously decided to do away with the position of watchman at the City Dock, which carries a compensation of $50 a month. This position has been held by the wharfinger who occu- pies quarters on the dock. The position of Wharfinger carries a salary of $200 a month and the use of the dock quarters if he desires to use them. The sal: of the City Clerk was raised without a dissenting vote, $25 a month, which brings it to $225 a month. Another measure passed by the new Council was the adoption of a time card system for workmen employed by the City. The cards will be kept on file in the City Clerk’s office so that at any time the exact amount of time re- quired for any particular job will be available. Various other matters were dis- cussed, the matter of oil heat for the City Hall, the Clean-up Cam- paign and the plan for street and sidewalk improvement for the com- ing year. The meeting was ad- Jjourned about 10:30 o'clock.
