ANOTHER CITY MANAGER
EXPERIENCE
It M-ems only accessary to find
if operating under the manager
dun in order to find a city satisfied
viih its government.
The most recent instance that ha:
come to our attention -is that of Aus
tin. Texas, where in less thar. four
years an overdraft of $1*0,4(10 was
transferred into cash balance agroc-
gating $83,800.
Reduction in the average tax rate
from 2. 38 1-2 to 2.11 was also re
ported by Austin in the same period
of time.
Yet city manager government in
Austin has not been “stingy”. Effici
ency in administration and intellig
ent economy in financing are the
reason* for the change.
Among the increased services which
the city has taken on are the health
lfarc department in charge of
full-time health official and full
time assistant with six subordinates;
creation of a recreation department
in charge of a full-time graduate
lirector; appointment of a full-time
attorney and assistant
More than $38,000 was collected
in interest on daily balances. A
purchasing division was created
which has received $11,500 in dis-
purchases. Salaries of
have increased during this
period 30 per cent and the personnel
of the force has been enlaiyed.
Mr and Mr-. H. Levine, for ti
past several years managers of Jay
Department Store have tendered thi
resignation effective July 1st it hi
been announced.
Their successor has not been nam*
by Mr. Harry Jay. head of the stop
although he has been selected it i
| understood and an announcemeu
twill be made at ar. early dat?.
|_ Mr. and Mr . Levine have no*, mad
known their plans but will have a
important announcement at an earl,
date they stated. Mr. Levine stated
they would remain in Milledgeville
where they have made many friends.
The Jay store has become one of
Milledgeville's leading business houses
and the change will no doubt bring
about a new era in the mercantile
life of the city.
