' I j The First shall be a Mayor-Commissioner the head of the Commission of Public Affairs and Finance composed of city treas urer, ,city recorder, city planning commission, civil service com mission, library and housing authority and all duties of mayor. j j The Second shall be Commissioner of Public Health and Safety Slid in charge of Police Dept., Fire Dept., Health Dept., and Box hig Commission. ! ! The Third shall be Commissioner of Public Works and Property N charge of Water Dept., City Engineer, Street Supt., Sewer or Sewage Disposal Dept., and Airport Dept. I ! All of the duties and powers of the city council shall be invested in, the Commissioners and they are directed to reorganize .the work of their separate departments to increase efficiency anf re duce costs. They shall serve Four years with terms so staggered that at least one shall be elected every two years. The city attorney and city judge are also elected to act as a balance of power. All Other! city employees shall be under a strengthened civil service system. j ! It is possible that the elected Commissioners could save the people of Salem from $15,000.00 to $20,000.00 per year in actual cash or improved and increased services as suggested in the fol lowing manner: 1. The Mayor-Commissioner could absorb the duties of city treasurer which would release $3,900.00 toward the payment of his salary. 1. The Commissioner of Public Works and Property could ab sorb the duties of city engineer, water dept. manager, park supt., airport manager, with the majority of the details handled by the present assistants and chief clerks, thus making $18, 808.00 available for payment of Commissioners salaries and other necessary salary increases due to increased duties. 3. The city managers office being eliminated will leave $12,812 more available.
