THE MORNING OREGONIAN, TTTESDAT, NOVEMBER 1C, 1920
V
Commission's Request for!
$6000 Turned Down.
WORK MAY BE ABANDONED
Members of Board Receive No
Compensation Advisory Serv
ice Likely to Continue.
Ko money from the city treasury is
avalable for use of the city planning
commission during 1921, according to
Information given by members of the
city council yesterday at a joint
meeting of the council and commis
sion held in the office of J. G. Ains
worth, acting chairman of the com
mission. A request for an appropriation of
$6000 was made upon the council by
the commission, with the information
that the commission was faced with
many important problems which must
be solved during the next year. Mem
bers of the commission, it was ex
plained, are giving their time with
out compensation. In making the
request it was understood that with
the defeat of the zoning ordinance
"the services of Charles Henry Cheney,
planning expert, would be dispensed
with.
When It was announced that the
council, because of lack of funds,
would not be able to appropriate any
funds for the benefit of the commis
sion, even though it was recognized
that the work planned by the com
mission would be of general benefit
to the city, request was made for the
services of city employes from the
department of public works to carry
out the proposed programme of the
planning commission.
City Commissioner Barbur, in
charge of the department of public
works, objected to this plan, explain
ing that the budget of his depart
ment had been reduced so materially
as to make it impossible to lend any
of his employes for work which did
not come under the department of
public works.
It is not known if the refusal of the
council to appropriate funds for use
of the planning commission will
cause abandonment of the work of the
commission. It is believed, however,
that the members of the city planning
commission will continue to function
as an advisory body to the council
without attempting to carry out any
of the many proposals for improve
ments in city planning into effect
during the next year.
