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 Commission Government With a City Manager In December, 1910, the board of trade at Lockport, N. 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.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Municipal London, or London Government as It Is, and London Under a Municipal Council To the second part of the work are prefixed three chapters, containing a history of attempted Municipal Reform, and a discussion of the various schemes that have been proposed. These chapters will serve a useful purpose in illustrating the different methods by which the interested City Corporation has succeeded in shelving the ques tion, and they will enable future Municipal Re formers to steer clear of the rocks on which former measures have been wrecked. A system whereby the whole Metropolis may be governed by a Supreme Representative Council, is elaborated in the later chapters of the book.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Synopsis of the Argument of William Price: In the Case of the State, on the Relation of Charles Howard and Others, Versus the Mayor and City Council of Baltimore May It Please Your Honor: I regret that the opportunity to prepare for this argument in the manner I could have wished, was not afforded me. It happened that by the first arrangement between myself and colleagues, the part assigned me was to assist in taking care of the case in the Appellate Court, to which the cause is to be taken in any event. The arrangement, however, was afterwards changed, but at so short a date before the time appointed for the hearing here, that my preparation has necessarily been hurried and unsatisfactory. I do not advert to the subject by way of excuse for an effort which cannot, I well know, be the subject of much notice any where, but because it is due to your Honor, if my remarks shall happen to be more desultory than is common with me, that you should be informed of the reason of it. The cause in every view we can take of it, is one of vast importance - involving interests of greater magnitude than any controversy which has arisen in the Courts of this State within my recollection.
