Y., grew weary of the way municipal affairs in that town were being run under the familiar mayor-and council plan of organization. Like hundreds of other such bodies, they turned almost instinctively to com mission government. But there was no Optional law on the statute books at that time which they could adopt by the simple expedient of filing a petition with the city clerk and holding a special election.

Download or read book Selected Articles on the Commission Plan of Municipal Government written by UNKNOWN. AUTHOR and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-28 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Selected Articles on the Commission Plan of Municipal Government: Second and Enlarged Edition There is no denying the increasing interest in the commission form of city government. While this volume was originally prepared for the use of debaters and students, the demand for it by libraries and members of clubs and organizations who are everywhere studying this question, has rendered necessary a new edition within a year. The present volume contains all the material included in the first edition, and has been brought up to date by the addition of recent articles and references. All articles have been edited so as to avoid useless repetition. The general arrangement followed in the first edition has been preserved. The introduction deals briefly with the general municipal situation, and leads up to the commission plan. The general discussion consists of a series of articles explaining the relationship of the commission plan to other important municipal problems. Following this, are the affirmative and negative discussions, respectively. A page of data concerning the commission plan, compiled especially for the original volume and brought up to date in this edition, will be found of value to the student. There is also a brief of the question; and a bibliography, so complete as to include all important material, and so arranged as to let the investigator know at once the value of each reference. This bibliography has been enlarged by the inclusion of a number of references to articles published since the appearance of the first edition. Libraries that do not contain a complete file of magazines, pamphlets and late municipal books, will find this volume an inexpensive yet practical method of supplying the demand for material on the commission question. It is also recommended to legislators, members of city councils, business men, in short, to all who are interested in the betterment of city government.

Download or read book The Commission Plan and Commission-Manager Plan of Municipal Government written by National Municipal League and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-11 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Commission Plan and Commission-Manager Plan of Municipal Government: An Analytical Study In Galveston, Texas, after the flood of 1900, which fairly wiped out the city, the typical old-style mayor-and-council form of government broke down and was replaced by a com mission of five men appointed by the Governor of Texas. This commission worked swiftly and efficiently, and soon had the municipal government working and at much less annual cost. After the emergency passed, an attempt was made to continue the same government with three members appointed by the governor and two chosen by popular vote, as it was supposed that so simple and powerful a form of organization would be unsafe if manned entirely by elective representatives. A court decision declared the continued appointment of city officers in this way to be unconstitutional, and the entire com mission forthwith became elective. To the surprise of many observers, no demoralization ensued, and through successive elections the changes in personnel have been very slight. Gal veston began to claim that it was the best governed city in the United States, and Houston, Texas, in 1905, copied the Gal veston charter with similar satisfaction. In 1907 Des Moines adopted the Galveston plan, with the addition of the initiative, referendum and recall and non partisan primary. The Des Moines charter was widely copied, largely on the strength of the Des Moines experience, the number of cities adopting this form having increased until, on june l, 1914, there are 327 cities and towns of 2000 population or over which have changed their governments to the newtype. Few changes of importance were made in the Des Moines model for several years (except the preferential ballot added first by Grand Junction, Colo.) until the appearance in 1913 of the city manager, or commission manager modification, which is described in the attached supplementary report of the committee.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Cyclopedia of American Government, Vol. 1: Abattoirs-Finality In addition to political theory, thus practically treated, the volumes c'ontain dis eussions of the principles: of international law, constitutional law, party organization and action, and they present in brief form the most significant and fundamental principles of economic theory. The work is intended to be practical, to describe with concreteness and directness what government actually is and does; but the editors believe that wherever possible, and it generally is possible, an article should be approached from the side of principle, and not written as if an institution or a form of government were an absolute and detached abstract fact. As a basis for an understanding of existing government, and because the term government, as here used, includes the actual operation of political machinery, considerable space is given to constitutional, political, and party history. The principles of international law are supported by numerous articles on the history of American international relations.
